ecf081d1a7 vfs: introduce FMODE_NONOTIFY
This is a new f_mode which can only be set by the kernel.  It indicates
that the fd was opened by fanotify and should not cause future fanotify
events.  This is needed to prevent fanotify livelock.  An example of
obvious livelock is from fanotify close events.

Process A closes file1
This creates a close event for file1.
fanotify opens file1 for Listener X
Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1.
This creates a close event for file1.
fanotify opens file1 for Listener X
Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1.
This creates a close event for file1.
fanotify opens file1 for Listener X
Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1.
notice a pattern?

The fix is to add the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit to the open filp done by the kernel
for fanotify.  Thus when that file is used it will not generate future
events.

This patch simply defines the bit.

140236b4b1 VFS: introduce s_dirty accessors
This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()',
'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply
set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make
every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating
the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly.

Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic
superblock synchronization optimization which is about
preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up
even if there is nothing to synchronize.

This patch does not do any functional change, just adds
accessor functions.

7bb46a6734 fs: introduce new truncate sequence
Introduce a new truncate calling sequence into fs/mm subsystems. Rather than
setattr > vmtruncate > truncate, have filesystems call their truncate sequence
from ->setattr if filesystem specific operations are required. vmtruncate is
deprecated, and truncate_pagecache and inode_newsize_ok helpers introduced
previously should be used.

simple_setattr is introduced for simple in-ram filesystems to implement
the new truncate sequence. Eventually all filesystems should be converted
to implement a setattr, and the default code in notify_change should go
away.

simple_setsize is also introduced to perform just the ATTR_SIZE portion
of simple_setattr (ie. changing i_size and trimming pagecache).

To implement the new truncate sequence:
- filesystem specific manipulations (eg freeing blocks) must be done in
  the setattr method rather than ->truncate.
- vmtruncate can not be used by core code to trim blocks past i_size in
  the event of write failure after allocation, so this must be performed
  in the fs code.
- convert usage of helpers block_write_begin, nobh_write_begin,
  cont_write_begin, and *blockdev_direct_IO* to use _newtrunc postfixed
  variants. These avoid calling vmtruncate to trim blocks (see previous).
- inode_setattr should not be used. generic_setattr is a new function
  to be used to copy simple attributes into the generic inode.
- make use of the better opportunity to handle errors with the new sequence.

Big problem with the previous calling sequence: the filesystem is not called
until i_size has already changed.  This means it is not allowed to fail the
call, and also it does not know what the previous i_size was. Also, generic
code calling vmtruncate to truncate allocated blocks in case of error had
no good way to return a meaningful error (or, for example, atomically handle
block deallocation).

1b061d9247 rename the generic fsync implementations
We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently.
The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called
simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with,
the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync
which can lead to some confusion.

This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync
to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used
with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious
what to expect.  In addition add some documentation for both methods.

d7065da038 get rid of the magic around f_count in aio
__aio_put_req() plays sick games with file refcount.  What
it wants is fput() from atomic context; it's almost always
done with f_count > 1, so they only have to deal with delayed
work in rare cases when their reference happens to be the
last one.  Current code decrements f_count and if it hasn't
hit 0, everything is fine.  Otherwise it keeps a pointer
to struct file (with zero f_count!) around and has delayed
work do __fput() on it.

Better way to do it: use atomic_long_add_unless( , -1, 1)
instead of !atomic_long_dec_and_test().  IOW, decrement it
only if it's not the last reference, leave refcount alone
if it was.  And use normal fput() in delayed work.

I've made that atomic_long_add_unless call a new helper -
fput_atomic().  Drops a reference to file if it's safe to
do in atomic (i.e. if that's not the last one), tells if
it had been able to do that.  aio.c converted to it, __fput()
use is gone.  req->ki_file *always* contributes to refcount
now.  And __fput() became static.

This is an implementation of ->llseek useable for the rare special case
when userspace expects the seek to succeed but the (device) file is

facd07b07d direct-io: add a hook for the fs to provide its own submit_bio function
Because BTRFS can do RAID and such, we need our own submit hook so we can setup
the bio's in the correct fashion, and handle checksum errors properly.  So there
are a few changes here

1) The submit_io hook.  This is straightforward, just call this instead of
submit_bio.

2) Allow the fs to return -ENOTBLK for reads.  Usually this has only worked for
writes, since writes can fallback onto buffered IO.  But BTRFS needs the option
of falling back on buffered IO if it encounters a compressed extent, since we
need to read the entire extent in and decompress it.  So if we get -ENOTBLK back
from get_block we'll return back and fallback on buffered just like the write
case.

I've tested these changes with fsx and everything seems to work.  Thanks,

The trace above is totally reproducible by doing a cross-directory
rename on an ecryptfs directory.

The issue seems to be that sys_renameat() does lock_rename() then calls
into the filesystem; if the filesystem is ecryptfs, then
ecryptfs_rename() again does lock_rename() on the lower filesystem, and
lockdep can't tell that the two s_vfs_rename_mutexes are different.  It
seems an annotation like the following is sufficient to fix this (it
does get rid of the lockdep trace in my simple tests); however I would
like to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the locking, hence the CC
list...

18e9e5104f Introduce freeze_super and thaw_super for the fsfreeze ioctl
Currently the way we do freezing is by passing sb>s_bdev to freeze_bdev and then
letting it do all the work.  But freezing is more of an fs thing, and doesn't
really have much to do with the bdev at all, all the work gets done with the
super.  In btrfs we do not populate s_bdev, since we can have multiple bdev's
for one fs and setting s_bdev makes removing devices from a pool kind of tricky.
This means that freezing a btrfs filesystem fails, which causes us to corrupt
with things like tux-on-ice which use the fsfreeze mechanism.  So instead of
populating sb->s_bdev with a random bdev in our pool, I've broken the actual fs
freezing stuff into freeze_super and thaw_super.  These just take the
super_block that we're freezing and does the appropriate work.  It's basically
just copy and pasted from freeze_bdev.  I've then converted freeze_bdev over to
use the new super helpers.  I've tested this with ext4 and btrfs and verified
everything continues to work the same as before.

The only new gotcha is multiple calls to the fsfreeze ioctl will return EBUSY if
the fs is already frozen.  I thought this was a better solution than adding a
freeze counter to the super_block, but if everybody hates this idea I'm open to
suggestions.  Thanks,

6b4517a791 block: implement bd_claiming and claiming block
Currently, device claiming for exclusive open is done after low level
open - disk->fops->open() - has completed successfully.  This means
that exclusive open attempts while a device is already exclusively
open will fail only after disk->fops->open() is called.

cdrom driver issues commands during open() which means that O_EXCL
open attempt can unintentionally inject commands to in-progress
command stream for burning thus disturbing burning process.  In most
cases, this doesn't cause problems because the first command to be
issued is TUR which most devices can process in the middle of burning.
However, depending on how a device replies to TUR during burning,
cdrom driver may end up issuing further commands.

This can't be resolved trivially by moving bd_claim() before doing
actual open() because that means an open attempt which will end up
failing could interfere other legit O_EXCL open attempts.
ie. unconfirmed open attempts can fail others.

This patch resolves the problem by introducing claiming block which is
started by bd_start_claiming() and terminated either by bd_claim() or
bd_abort_claiming().  bd_claim() from inside a claiming block is
guaranteed to succeed and once a claiming block is started, other
bd_start_claiming() or bd_claim() attempts block till the current
claiming block is terminated.

bd_claim() can still be used standalone although now it always
synchronizes against claiming blocks, so the existing users will keep
working without any change.

blkdev_open() and open_bdev_exclusive() are converted to use claiming
blocks so that exclusive open attempts from these functions don't
interfere with the existing exclusive open.

This problem was discovered while investigating bko#15403.

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15403

The burning problem itself can be resolved by updating userspace
probing tools to always open w/ O_EXCL.

3a3076f4d6 Cleanup generic block based fiemap
This cleans up a few of the complaints of __generic_block_fiemap.  I've
fixed all the typing stuff, used inline functions instead of macros,
gotten rid of a couple of variables, and made sure the size and block
requests are all block aligned.  It also fixes a problem where sometimes
FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST wasn't being set properly.

989a297920 fasync: RCU and fine grained locking
kill_fasync() uses a central rwlock, candidate for RCU conversion, to
avoid cache line ping pongs on SMP.

fasync_remove_entry() and fasync_add_entry() can disable IRQS on a short
section instead during whole list scan.

Use a spinlock per fasync_struct to synchronize kill_fasync_rcu() and
fasync_{remove|add}_entry(). This spinlock is IRQ safe, so sock_fasync()
doesnt need its own implementation and can use fasync_helper(), to
reduce code size and complexity.

We can remove __kill_fasync() direct use in net/socket.c, and rename it
to kill_fasync_rcu().

55ab3a1ff8 raw: fsync method is now required
Commit 148f948ba8 (vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) broke
the raw driver.

We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync ->
vfs_fsync_range.  vfs_fsync_range has:

        if (!fop || !fop->fsync) {
                ret = -EINVAL;
                goto out;
        }

But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method.

We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely.  I'm
happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it
is rarely used.

The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver.  My knowledge of
the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over.

If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be
useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

0141450f66 readahead: introduce FMODE_RANDOM for POSIX_FADV_RANDOM
This fixes inefficient page-by-page reads on POSIX_FADV_RANDOM.

POSIX_FADV_RANDOM used to set ra_pages=0, which leads to poor performance:
a 16K read will be carried out in 4 _sync_ 1-page reads.

In other places, ra_pages==0 means
- it's ramfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs/sysfs/configfs
- some IO error happened
where multi-page read IO won't help or should be avoided.

POSIX_FADV_RANDOM actually want a different semantics: to disable the
*heuristic* readahead algorithm, and to use a dumb one which faithfully
submit read IO for whatever application requests.

So introduce a flag FMODE_RANDOM for POSIX_FADV_RANDOM.

Note that the random hint is not likely to help random reads performance
noticeably.  And it may be too permissive on huge request size (its IO
size is not limited by read_ahead_kb).

In Quentin's report (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/12/24/145), the overall
(NFS read) performance of the application increased by 313%!

Add a new UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW flag to umount(2).  This is needed to prevent
symlink attacks in unprivileged unmounts (fuse, samba, ncpfs).

Additionally, return -EINVAL if an unknown flag is used (and specify
an explicitly unused flag: UMOUNT_UNUSED).  This makes it possible for
the caller to determine if a flag is supported or not.

do_sync_file_range is down to a single caller fold it into it so that people
don't start using it again accidentally.  While at it also switch it from

filemap_fdatawrite_range().
