47ea0f2ebf afs: Optimise callback breaking by not repeating volume lookup
At the moment, afs_break_callbacks calls afs_break_one_callback() for each
separate FID it was given, and the latter looks up the volume individually
for each one.

However, this is inefficient if two or more FIDs have the same vid as we
could reuse the volume.  This is complicated by cell aliasing whereby we
may have multiple cells sharing a volume and can therefore have multiple
callback interests for any particular volume ID.

At the moment afs_break_one_callback() scans the entire list of volumes
we're getting from a server and breaks the appropriate callback in every
matching volume, regardless of cell.  This scan is done for every FID.

Optimise callback breaking by the following means:

 (1) Sort the FID list by vid so that all FIDs belonging to the same volume
     are clumped together.

     This is done through the use of an indirection table as we cannot do
     an insertion sort on the afs_callback_break array as we decode FIDs
     into it as we subsequently also have to decode callback info into it
     that corresponds by array index only.

     We also don't really want to bubblesort afterwards if we can avoid it.

 (2) Sort the server->cb_interests array by vid so that all the matching
     volumes are grouped together.  This permits the scan to stop after
     finding a record that has a higher vid.

 (3) When breaking FIDs, we try to keep server->cb_break_lock as long as
     possible, caching the start point in the array for that volume group
     as long as possible.

     It might make sense to add another layer in that list and have a
     refcounted volume ID anchor that has the matching interests attached
     to it rather than being in the list.  This would allow the lock to be
     dropped without losing the cursor.

68251f0a68 afs: Fix whole-volume callback handling
It's possible for an AFS file server to issue a whole-volume notification
that callbacks on all the vnodes in the file have been broken.  This is
done for R/O and backup volumes (which don't have per-file callbacks) and
for things like a volume being taken offline.

Fix callback handling to detect whole-volume notifications, to track it
across operations and to check it during inode validation.

d4a96bec7a afs: Fix refcounting in callback registration
The refcounting on afs_cb_interest struct objects in
afs_register_server_cb_interest() is wrong as it uses the server list
entry's call back interest pointer without regard for the fact that it
might be replaced at any time and the object thrown away.

Fix this by:

 (1) Put a lock on the afs_server_list struct that can be used to
     mediate access to the callback interest pointers in the servers array.

 (2) Keep a ref on the callback interest that we get from the entry.

 (3) Dropping the old reference held by vnode->cb_interest if we replace
     the pointer.

5a81327616 afs: Do better accretion of small writes on newly created content
Processes like ld that do lots of small writes that aren't necessarily
contiguous result in a lot of small StoreData operations to the server, the
idea being that if someone else changes the data on the server, we only
write our changes over that and not the space between.  Further, we don't
want to write back empty space if we can avoid it to make it easier for the
server to do sparse files.

However, making lots of tiny RPC ops is a lot less efficient for the server
than one big one because each op requires allocation of resources and the
taking of locks, so we want to compromise a bit.

Reduce the load by the following:

 (1) If a file is just created locally or has just been truncated with
     O_TRUNC locally, allow subsequent writes to the file to be merged with
     intervening space if that space doesn't cross an entire intervening
     page.

 (2) Don't flush the file on ->flush() but rather on ->release() if the
     file was open for writing.

Just linking vmlinux.o, without this patch, looking in /proc/fs/afs/stats:

	file-wr : n=441 nb=513581204

and after the patch:

	file-wr : n=62 nb=513668555

there were 379 fewer StoreData RPC operations at the expense of an extra
87K being written.

5cf9dd55a0 afs: Prospectively look up extra files when doing a single lookup
When afs_lookup() is called, prospectively look up the next 50 uncached
fids also from that same directory and cache the results, rather than just
looking up the one file requested.

This allows us to use the FS.InlineBulkStatus RPC op to increase efficiency
by fetching up to 50 file statuses at a time.

d2ddc776a4 afs: Overhaul volume and server record caching and fileserver rotation
The current code assumes that volumes and servers are per-cell and are
never shared, but this is not enforced, and, indeed, public cells do exist
that are aliases of each other.  Further, an organisation can, say, set up
a public cell and a private cell with overlapping, but not identical, sets
of servers.  The difference is purely in the database attached to the VL
servers.

The current code will malfunction if it sees a server in two cells as it
assumes global address -> server record mappings and that each server is in
just one cell.

Further, each server may have multiple addresses - and may have addresses
of different families (IPv4 and IPv6, say).

To this end, the following structural changes are made:

 (1) Server record management is overhauled:

     (a) Server records are made independent of cell.  The namespace keeps
     	 track of them, volume records have lists of them and each vnode
     	 has a server on which its callback interest currently resides.

     (b) The cell record no longer keeps a list of servers known to be in
     	 that cell.

     (c) The server records are now kept in a flat list because there's no
     	 single address to sort on.

     (d) Server records are now keyed by their UUID within the namespace.

     (e) The addresses for a server are obtained with the VL.GetAddrsU
     	 rather than with VL.GetEntryByName, using the server's UUID as a
     	 parameter.

     (f) Cached server records are garbage collected after a period of
     	 non-use and are counted out of existence before purging is allowed
     	 to complete.  This protects the work functions against rmmod.

     (g) The servers list is now in /proc/fs/afs/servers.

 (2) Volume record management is overhauled:

     (a) An RCU-replaceable server list is introduced.  This tracks both
     	 servers and their coresponding callback interests.

     (b) The superblock is now keyed on cell record and numeric volume ID.

     (c) The volume record is now tied to the superblock which mounts it,
     	 and is activated when mounted and deactivated when unmounted.
     	 This makes it easier to handle the cache cookie without causing a
     	 double-use in fscache.

     (d) The volume record is loaded from the VLDB using VL.GetEntryByNameU
     	 to get the server UUID list.

     (e) The volume name is updated if it is seen to have changed when the
     	 volume is updated (the update is keyed on the volume ID).

 (3) The vlocation record is got rid of and VLDB records are no longer
     cached.  Sufficient information is stored in the volume record, though
     an update to a volume record is now no longer shared between related
     volumes (volumes come in bundles of three: R/W, R/O and backup).

and the following procedural changes are made:

 (1) The fileserver cursor introduced previously is now fleshed out and
     used to iterate over fileservers and their addresses.

 (2) Volume status is checked during iteration, and the server list is
     replaced if a change is detected.

 (3) Server status is checked during iteration, and the address list is
     replaced if a change is detected.

 (4) The abort code is saved into the address list cursor and -ECONNABORTED
     returned in afs_make_call() if a remote abort happened rather than
     translating the abort into an error message.  This allows actions to
     be taken depending on the abort code more easily.

     (a) If a VMOVED abort is seen then this is handled by rechecking the
     	 volume and restarting the iteration.

     (b) If a VBUSY, VRESTARTING or VSALVAGING abort is seen then this is
         handled by sleeping for a short period and retrying and/or trying
         other servers that might serve that volume.  A message is also
         displayed once until the condition has cleared.

     (c) If a VOFFLINE abort is seen, then this is handled as VBUSY for the
     	 moment.

     (d) If a VNOVOL abort is seen, the volume is rechecked in the VLDB to
     	 see if it has been deleted; if not, the fileserver is probably
     	 indicating that the volume couldn't be attached and needs
     	 salvaging.

     (e) If statfs() sees one of these aborts, it does not sleep, but
     	 rather returns an error, so as not to block the umount program.

 (5) The fileserver iteration functions in vnode.c are now merged into
     their callers and more heavily macroised around the cursor.  vnode.c
     is removed.

 (6) Operations on a particular vnode are serialised on that vnode because
     the server will lock that vnode whilst it operates on it, so a second
     op sent will just have to wait.

 (7) Fileservers are probed with FS.GetCapabilities before being used.
     This is where service upgrade will be done.

 (8) A callback interest on a fileserver is set up before an FS operation
     is performed and passed through to afs_make_call() so that it can be
     set on the vnode if the operation returns a callback.  The callback
     interest is passed through to afs_iget() also so that it can be set
     there too.

In general, record updating is done on an as-needed basis when we try to
access servers, volumes or vnodes rather than offloading it to work items
and special threads.

Notes:

 (1) Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can be added
     back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998).

 (2) VBUSY is retried forever for the moment at intervals of 1s.

 (3) /proc/fs/afs/<cell>/servers no longer exists.

c435ee3455 afs: Overhaul the callback handling
Overhaul the AFS callback handling by the following means:

 (1) Don't give up callback promises on vnodes that we are no longer using,
     rather let them just expire on the server or let the server break
     them.  This is actually more efficient for the server as the callback
     lookup is expensive if there are lots of extant callbacks.

 (2) Only give up the callback promises we have from a server when the
     server record is destroyed.  Then we can just give up *all* the
     callback promises on it in one go.

 (3) Servers can end up being shared between cells if cells are aliased, so
     don't add all the vnodes being backed by a particular server into a
     big FID-indexed tree on that server as there may be duplicates.

     Instead have each volume instance (~= superblock) register an interest
     in a server as it starts to make use of it and use this to allow the
     processor for callbacks from the server to find the superblock and
     thence the inode corresponding to the FID being broken by means of
     ilookup_nowait().

 (4) Rather than iterating over the entire callback list when a mass-break
     comes in from the server, maintain a counter of mass-breaks in
     afs_server (cb_seq) and make afs_validate() check it against the copy
     in afs_vnode.

     It would be nice not to have to take a read_lock whilst doing this,
     but that's tricky without using RCU.

 (5) Save a ref on the fileserver we're using for a call in the afs_call
     struct so that we can access its cb_s_break during call decoding.

 (6) Write-lock around callback and status storage in a vnode and read-lock
     around getattr so that we don't see the status mid-update.

This has the following consequences:

 (1) Data invalidation isn't seen until someone calls afs_validate() on a
     vnode.  Unfortunately, we need to use a key to query the server, but
     getting one from a background thread is tricky without caching loads
     of keys all over the place.

 (2) Mass invalidation isn't seen until someone calls afs_validate().

 (3) Callback breaking is going to hit the inode_hash_lock quite a bit.
     Could this be replaced with rcu_read_lock() since inodes are destroyed
     under RCU conditions.

f044c8847b afs: Lay the groundwork for supporting network namespaces
Lay the groundwork for supporting network namespaces (netns) to the AFS
filesystem by moving various global features to a network-namespace struct
(afs_net) and providing an instance of this as a temporary global variable
that everything uses via accessor functions for the moment.

The following changes have been made:

 (1) Store the netns in the superblock info.  This will be obtained from
     the mounter's nsproxy on a manual mount and inherited from the parent
     superblock on an automount.

 (2) The cell list is made per-netns.  It can be viewed through
     /proc/net/afs/cells and also be modified by writing commands to that
     file.

 (3) The local workstation cell is set per-ns in /proc/net/afs/rootcell.
     This is unset by default.

 (4) The 'rootcell' module parameter, which sets a cell and VL server list
     modifies the init net namespace, thereby allowing an AFS root fs to be
     theoretically used.

 (5) The volume location lists and the file lock manager are made
     per-netns.

 (6) The AF_RXRPC socket and associated I/O bits are made per-ns.

The various workqueues remain global for the moment.

Changes still to be made:

 (1) /proc/fs/afs/ should be moved to /proc/net/afs/ and a symlink emplaced
     from the old name.

 (2) A per-netns subsys needs to be registered for AFS into which it can
     store its per-netns data.

 (3) Rather than the AF_RXRPC socket being opened on module init, it needs
     to be opened on the creation of a superblock in that netns.

 (4) The socket needs to be closed when the last superblock using it is
     destroyed and all outstanding client calls on it have been completed.
     This prevents a reference loop on the namespace.

 (5) It is possible that several namespaces will want to use AFS, in which
     case each one will need its own UDP port.  These can either be set
     through /proc/net/afs/cm_port or the kernel can pick one at random.
     The init_ns gets 7001 by default.

Other issues that need resolving:

 (1) The DNS keyring needs net-namespacing.

 (2) Where do upcalls go (eg. DNS request-key upcall)?

 (3) Need something like open_socket_in_file_ns() syscall so that AFS
     command line tools attempting to operate on an AFS file/volume have
     their RPC calls go to the right place.

41f63c5359 workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of cancel + queue
Convert delayed_work users doing cancel_delayed_work() followed by
queue_delayed_work() to mod_delayed_work().

Most conversions are straight-forward.  Ones worth mentioning are,

* drivers/edac/edac_mc.c: edac_mc_workq_setup() converted to always
  use mod_delayed_work() and cancel loop in
  edac_mc_reset_delay_period() is dropped.

* drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c: No need to remember whether
  watchdog is active or not.  @fan_watchdog_active and related code
  dropped.

* drivers/power/charger-manager.c: Seemingly a lot of
  delayed_work_pending() abuse going on here.
  [delayed_]work_pending() are unsynchronized and racy when used like
  this.  I converted one instance in fullbatt_handler().  Please
  conver the rest so that it invokes workqueue APIs for the intended
  target state rather than trying to game work item pending state
  transitions.  e.g. if timer should be modified - call
  mod_delayed_work(), canceled - call cancel_delayed_work[_sync]().

* drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.c: thermal_zone_device_set_polling()
  simplified.  Note that round_jiffies() calls in this function are
  meaningless.  round_jiffies() work on absolute jiffies not delta
  delay used by delayed_work.

v2: Tomi pointed out that __cancel_delayed_work() users can't be
    safely converted to mod_delayed_work().  They could be calling it
    from irq context and if that happens while delayed_work_timer_fn()
    is running, it could deadlock.  __cancel_delayed_work() users are
    dropped.

e8edc6e03a Detach sched.h from mm.h
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

416351f28d AFS: AFS fixups
Make some miscellaneous changes to the AFS filesystem:

 (1) Assert RCU barriers on module exit to make sure RCU has finished with
     callbacks in this module.

 (2) Correctly handle the AFS server returning a zero-length read.

 (3) Split out data zapping calls into one function (afs_zap_data).

 (4) Rename some afs_file_*() functions to afs_*() where they apply to
     non-regular files too.

 (5) Be consistent about the presentation of volume ID:vnode ID in debugging
     output.

260a980317 [AFS]: Add "directory write" support.
Add support for the create, link, symlink, unlink, mkdir, rmdir and
rename VFS operations to the in-kernel AFS filesystem.

Also:

 (1) Fix dentry and inode revalidation.  d_revalidate should only look at
     state of the dentry.  Revalidation of the contents of an inode pointed to
     by a dentry is now separate.

 (2) Fix afs_lookup() to hash negative dentries as well as positive ones.

00d3b7a453 [AFS]: Add security support.
Add security support to the AFS filesystem.  Kerberos IV tickets are added as
RxRPC keys are added to the session keyring with the klog program.  open() and
other VFS operations then find this ticket with request_key() and either use
it immediately (eg: mkdir, unlink) or attach it to a file descriptor (open).

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
