2008-05-15jbd2: update transaction t_state to T_COMMIT fixMingming Cao
Updating the current transaction's t_state is protected by j_state_lock. We need to do the same when updating the t_state to T_COMMIT.

2008-05-15ext4: Retry block allocation if new blocks are allocated from system zone.Aneesh Kumar K.V
If the block allocator gets blocks out of system zone ext4 calls ext4_error. But if the file system is mounted with errors=continue retry block allocation. We need to mark the system zone blocks as in use to make sure retry don't pick them again System zone is the block range mapping block bitmap, inode bitmap and inode table.

2008-05-13ext4: mballoc fix mb_normalize_request algorithm for 1KB block size filesystemsValerie Clement
In case of inode preallocation, the number of blocks to allocate depends on the file size and it is calculated in ext4_mb_normalize_request(). Each group in the filesystem is then checked to find one that can be used for allocation; this is done in ext4_mb_good_group(). When a file bigger than 4MB is created, the requested number of blocks to preallocate, calculated by ext4_mb_normalize_request is 4096. However for a filesystem with 1KB block size, the maximum size of the block buddies used by the multiblock allocator is 2048, so none of groups in the filesystem satisfies the search criteria in ext4_mb_good_group(). Scanning all the filesystem groups impacts performance. This was demonstrated by using a freshly created, 70GB, 1k block filesystem, with caches dropped write before the test via /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches, and with the filesystem mounted with nodelalloc and nodealloc,nomballoc. The time to write an 8 megabyte file using "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/fo bs=8k count=1k conv=fsync" took 35.5091 seconds (236kB/s) with nodellaloc, and 0.233754 seconds (35.9 MB/s) with the nodelloc,nomballoc options. With a 1TB partition, it took several minutes to write 8MB! This patch modifies the algorithm in ext4_mb_normalize_group_request to calculate the number of blocks to allocate by taking into account the maximum size of free blocks chunks handled by the multiblock allocator. It has also been tested for filesystems with 2KB and 4KB block sizes to ensure that those cases don't regress.

2008-05-13ext4: correct mount option parsing to detect when quota options can be changedJan Kara
We should not allow user to change quota mount options when quota is just suspended. It would make mount options and internal quota state inconsistent. Also we should not allow user to change quota format when quota is turned on. On the other hand we can just silently ignore when some option is set to the value it already has (mount does this on remount).

2008-05-149p: fix error path during early mountEric Van Hensbergen
There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger a kernel bug for certain types of failure. This patch reorganizes the cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior. This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of configuration and initialization. Keeping the fd transport separate from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

2008-05-14add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing ↵Markus Armbruster
more robust match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer. There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

2008-05-13fuse: add flag to turn on big writesMiklos Szeredi
Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would result in bugs. To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default, but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

Fix an oops with a corrupted hfs+ image. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10548 for details. Problem is that we call hfs_btree_open() from hfsplus_fill_super() to set HFSPLUS_SB(sb).[ext_tree|cat_tree] Both trees are still NULL at this moment. If hfs_btree_open() fails for any reason it calls iput() on the page, which gets to hfsplus_releasepage() which tries to access HFSPLUS_SB(sb).* which is still NULL and oopses while dereferencing it.

Sometimes, vfs_quota_off() is called on a partially set up super block (for example when fill_super() fails for some reason). In such cases we cannot call ->sync_fs() because it can Oops because of not properly filled in super block.

2008-05-11Add new 'cond_resched_bkl()' helper functionLinus Torvalds
It acts exactly like a regular 'cond_resched()', but will not get optimized away when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set. Normal kernel code is already preemptable in the presense of CONFIG_PREEMPT, so cond_resched() is optimized away (see commit 02b67cc3ba36bdba351d6c3a00593f4ec550d9d3 "sched: do not do cond_resched() when CONFIG_PREEMPT"). But when wanting to conditionally reschedule while holding a lock, you need to use "cond_sched_lock(lock)", and the new function is the BKL equivalent of that. Also make fs/locks.c use it.

2008-05-11[CIFS] don't allow demultiplex thread to exit until kthread_stop is calledSteve French
cifs_demultiplex_thread can exit under several conditions: 1) if it's signaled 2) if there's a problem with session setup 3) if kthread_stop is called on it The first two are problems. If kthread_stop is called on the thread, there is no guarantee that it will still be up. We need to have the thread stay up until kthread_stop is called on it. One option would be to not even try to tear things down until after kthread_stop is called. However, in the case where there is a problem setting up the session, there's no real reason to try continuing the loop. This patch allows the thread to clean up and prepare for exit under all three conditions, but it has the thread go to sleep until kthread_stop is called. This allows us to simplify the shutdown code somewhat since we can be reasonably sure that the thread won't exit after being signaled but before kthread_stop is called. It also removes the places where the thread itself set the tsk variable since it appeared that it could have a potential race where the thread might never be shut down.

When creating a file, set ATTR_READONLY if the create mode has no write bits set and we're not using unix extensions. There are some comments about this being problematic due to the VFS splitting creates into 2 parts. I'm not sure what that's actually talking about, but I'm assuming that it has something to do with how mknod is implemented.

Was a holdover from the old kernel_thread based cifsd code. We needed to know that the thread had set the task variable before proceeding. Now that kthread_run returns the new task, this doesn't appear to be needed anymore. As best I can tell, this sleep was intended to try to prevent cifs_umount from freeing the cifsSesInfo struct before cifsd had exited. Now that cifsd is using the kthread API, we know that when kthread_stop returns that cifsd has exited, so I don't think this is needed any longer.

Commit 33dcdac2df54e66c447ae03f58c95c7251aa5649 ("kill ->put_inode") removed the final use of i_op->put_inode, but left the now totally unused "op" variable in iput(). Get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-05-06[PATCH] fix SMP ordering hole in fcntl_setlk()Al Viro
fcntl_setlk()/close() race prevention has a subtle hole - we need to make sure that if we *do* have an fcntl/close race on SMP box, the access to descriptor table and inode->i_flock won't get reordered. As it is, we get STORE inode->i_flock, LOAD descriptor table entry vs. STORE descriptor table entry, LOAD inode->i_flock with not a single lock in common on both sides. We do have BKL around the first STORE, but check in locks_remove_posix() is outside of BKL and for a good reason - we don't want BKL on common path of close(2). Solution is to hold ->file_lock around fcheck() in there; that orders us wrt removal from descriptor table that preceded locks_remove_posix() on close path and we either come first (in which case eviction will be handled by the close side) or we'll see the effect of close and do eviction ourselves. Note that even though it's read-only access, we do need ->file_lock here - rcu_read_lock() won't be enough to order the things. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2008-05-06[PATCH] kill ->put_inodeChristoph Hellwig
And with that last patch to affs killing the last put_inode instance we can finally, after many years of transition kill this racy and awkward interface. (It's kinda funny that even the description in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt was entirely wrong..) Also remove a very misleading comment above the defintion of struct super_operations.
