714082bc12 [XFS] Report errors from xfs_reserve_blocks().
xfs_reserve_blocks() can fail in interesting ways. In neither case is it a
fatal error, but the result can lead to sub-optimal behaviour. Warn to the
syslog if the call fails but otherwise continue.

6b1d1a732f [XFS] Fix lock inversion in forced shutdown.
Recent changes to xlog_state_release_iclog() placed the grant_lock inside
the icloglock. forced unmount of the log does this the opposite way
around, but does not depend on the order for correct working. Fix the
inversion by changing the order locks are gained in
xfs_log_force_umount().

To reduce contention on the log in large CPU count, separate out different

eb01c9cd87 [XFS] Remove the xlog_ticket allocator
The ticket allocator is just a simple slab implementation internal to the

This reduces contention on the icloglock during transaction commit and log
I/O completion by reducing the number of times we need to hold the global
icloglock during these operations.

2abdb8c881 [XFS] Prevent xfs_bmap_check_leaf_extents() referencing unmapped memory.
While investigating the extent corruption bug I ran into this bug in debug
only code. xfs_bmap_check_leaf_extents() loops through the leaf blocks of
the extent btree checking that every extent is entirely before the next
extent. It also compares the last extent in the previous block to the
first extent in the current block when the previous block has been
released and potentially unmapped. So take a copy of the last extent
instead of a pointer. Also move the last extent check out of the loop
because we only need to do it once.

59a33f9f77 [XFS] Ensure a btree insert returns a valid cursor.
When writing into preallocated regions there is a case where XFS can oops
or hang doing the unwritten extent conversion on I/O completion. It turns
out that the problem is related to the btree cursor being invalid.

When we do an insert into the tree, we may need to split blocks in the
tree. When we only split at the leaf level (i.e. level 0), everything
works just fine. However, if we have a multi-level split in the btreee,
the cursor passed to the insert function is no longer valid once the
insert is complete.

The leaf level split is handled correctly because all the operations at
level 0 are done using the original cursor, hence it is updated correctly.
However, when we need to update the next level up the tree, we don't use
that cursor - we use a cloned cursor that points to the index in the next
level up where we need to do the insert.

Hence if we need to split a second level, the changes to the tree are
reflected in the cloned cursor and not the original cursor. This
clone-and-move-up-a-level-on-split behaviour recurses all the way to the
top of the tree.

The complexity here is that these cloned cursors do not point to the
original index that was inserted - they point to the newly allocated block
(the right block) and the original cursor pointer to that level may still
point to the left block. Hence, without deep examination of the cloned
cursor and buffers, we cannot update the original cursor with the new path
from the cloned cursor.

In these cases the original cursor could be pointing to the wrong block(s)
and hence a subsequent modification to the tree using that cursor will
lead to corruption of the tree.

The crash case occurs when the tree changes height - we insert a new level
in the tree, and the cursor does not have a buffer in it's path for that
level. Hence any attempt to walk back up the cursor to the root block will
result in a null pointer dereference.

To make matters even more complex, the BMAP BT is rooted in an inode, so
we can have a change of height in the btree *without a root split*. That
is, if the root block in the inode is full when we split a leaf node, we
cannot fit the pointer to the new block in the root, so we allocate a new
block, migrate all the ptrs out of the inode into the new block and point
the inode root block at the newly allocated block. This changes the height
of the tree without a root split having occurred and hence invalidates the
path in the original cursor.

The patch below prevents xfs_bmbt_insert() from returning with an invalid
cursor by detecting the cases that invalidate the original cursor and
refresh it by do a lookup into the btree for the original index we were
inserting at.

Note that the INOBT, AGFBNO and AGFCNT btree implementations also have
this bug, but the cursor is currently always destroyed or revalidated
after an insert for those trees. Hence this patch only address the problem
in the BMBT code.

75de2a91c9 [XFS] Account for inode cluster alignment in all allocations
At ENOSPC, we can get a filesystem shutdown due to a cancelling a dirty
transaction in xfs_mkdir or xfs_create. This is due to the initial
allocation attempt not taking into account inode alignment and hence we
can prepare the AGF freelist for allocation when it's not actually
possible to do an allocation. This results in inode allocation returning
ENOSPC with a dirty transaction, and hence we shut down the filesystem.

Because the first allocation is an exact allocation attempt, we must tell
the allocator that the alignment does not affect the allocation attempt.
i.e. we will accept any extent alignment as long as the extent starts at
the block we want. Unfortunately, this means that if the longest free
extent is less than the length + alignment necessary for fallback
allocation attempts but is long enough to attempt a non-aligned
allocation, we will modify the free list.

If we then have the exact allocation fail, all other allocation attempts
will also fail due to the alignment constraint being taken into account.
Hence the initial attempt needs to set the "alignment slop" field so that
alignment, while not required, must be taken into account when determining
if there is enough space left in the AG to do the allocation.

That means if the exact allocation fails, we will not dirty the freelist
if there is not enough space available fo a subsequent allocation to
succeed. Hence we get an ENOSPC error back to userspace without shutting
down the filesystem.

d234154125 [XFS] Use power-of-2 sized buffers to reduce overhead
Now that the ktrace_enter() code is using atomics, the non-power-of-2
buffer sizes - which require modulus operations to get the index - are
showing up as using substantial CPU in the profiles.

Force the buffer sizes to be rounded up to the nearest power of two and
use masking rather than modulus operations to convert the index counter to
the buffer index. This reduces ktrace_enter overhead to 8% of a CPU time,
and again almost halves the trace intensive test runtime.

XFS changes the c/mtime of an inode when truncating it to the same size.
The c/mtime is only supposed to change if the size is changed. Not to be

if the size is not changed.

The Linux VFS encodes this semantic difference in the flags it sends down
to ->setattr, which XFS currently ignores. We need to make XFS pay
attention to the VFS flags and hence Do The Right Thing.

We currently have to take this lock to decrement the iclog reference
count. there is a reference count on each iclog, so we need to take he
global lock for all refcount changes.

When large numbers of processes are all doing small trnasctions, the iclog
reference counts will be quite high, and the state change that absolutely
requires the l_iclog_lock is the except rather than the norm.

Change the reference counting on the iclogs to use atomic_inc/dec so that
we can use atomic_dec_and_lock during transaction completion and avoid the
need for grabbing the l_iclog_lock for every reference count decrement
except the one that matters - the last.

b589334c7a [XFS] Prevent AIL lock contention during transaction completion
When hundreds of processors attempt to commit transactions at the same
time, they can contend on the AIL lock when updating the tail LSN held in
the in-core log structure.

At the moment, the tail LSN is only needed when actually writing out an
iclog, so it really does not need to be updated on every single
transaction completion - only those that result in switching iclogs and
flushing them to disk.

The result is that we reduce the number of times we need to grab the AIL
lock and the log grant lock by up to two orders of magnitude on large
processor count machines. The problem has previously been hidden by AIL
lock contention walking the AIL list which was recently solved and
uncovered this issue.

bad5584332 [XFS] Remove the xfs_icluster structure
Remove the xfs_icluster structure and replace with a radix tree lookup.

We don't need to keep a list of inodes in each cluster around anymore as
we can look them up quickly when we need to. The only time we need to do
this now is during inode writeback.

Factor the inode cluster writeback code out of xfs_iflush and convert it
to use radix_tree_gang_lookup() instead of walking a list of inodes built
when we first read in the inodes.

This remove 3 pointers from each xfs_inode structure and the xfs_icluster
structure per inode cluster. Hence we reduce the cache footprint of the
xfs_inodes by between 5-10% depending on cluster sparseness.

To be truly efficient we need a radix_tree_gang_lookup_range() call to
stop searching once we are past the end of the cluster instead of trying
to find a full cluster's worth of inodes.

$ cat /sys/slab/xfs_inode/object_size 536

a3f74ffb6d [XFS] Don't block pdflush when writing back inodes
When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster
buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to
multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time.

Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data
writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of
the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for
the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly
dirtied inode.

Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush
and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async
inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use
non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid
blocking or extra I/O being issued.

abe2f41430 JFFS2 Fix of panics caused by wrong condition for hole frag creation in write_begin
This fixes a regression introduced in commit
205c109a7a when switching to
write_begin/write_end operations in JFFS2.

The page offset is miscalculated, leading to corruption of the fragment
lists and subsequently to memory corruption and panics.

[ Side note: the bug is a fairly direct result of the naming.  Nick was
  likely misled by the use of "offs", since we tend to use the notion of
  "offset" not as an absolute position, but as an offset _within_ a page
  or allocation.

  Alternatively, a "pgoff_t" is a page index, but not a byte offset -
  our VM naming can be a bit confusing.

  So in this case, a VM person would likely have called this a "pos",
  not an "offs", or perhaps talked about byte offsets rather than page
  offsets (since it's counted in bytes, not pages).    - Linus ]

19e729a928 locks: fix possible infinite loop in fcntl(F_SETLKW) over nfs
Miklos Szeredi found the bug:

	"Basically what happens is that on the server nlm_fopen() calls
	nfsd_open() which returns -EACCES, to which nlm_fopen() returns
	NLM_LCK_DENIED.

	"On the client this will turn into a -EAGAIN (nlm_stat_to_errno()),
	which in will cause fcntl_setlk() to retry forever."

So, for example, opening a file on an nfs filesystem, changing
permissions to forbid further access, then trying to lock the file,
could result in an infinite loop.

And Trond Myklebust identified the culprit, from Marc Eshel and I:

	7723ec9777 "locks: factor out
	generic/filesystem switch from setlock code"

That commit claimed to just be reshuffling code, but actually introduced
a behavioral change by calling the lock method repeatedly as long as it
returned -EAGAIN.

We assumed this would be safe, since we assumed a lock of type SETLKW
would only return with either success or an error other than -EAGAIN.
However, nfs does can in fact return -EAGAIN in this situation, and
independently of whether that behavior is correct or not, we don't
actually need this change, and it seems far safer not to depend on such
assumptions about the filesystem's ->lock method.

Therefore, revert the problematic part of the original commit.  This
leaves vfs_lock_file() and its other callers unchanged, while returning
fcntl_setlk and fcntl_setlk64 to their former behavior.

54a0151041 asmlinkage_protect replaces prevent_tail_call
The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler
clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions
is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs.  The tail/sibling-call
optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use
stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent.
Other optimizations can do it too.

Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the
compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all
the manifestations of this issue that crop up.

More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument
variables live at the end of the function.  This makes their original
stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler
tends not clobber them for something else.  It's still no guarantee, but
it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

1be62dc190 Be more careful about marking buffers dirty
Mikulas Patocka noted that the optimization where we check if a buffer
was already dirty (and we avoid re-dirtying it) was not really SMP-safe.

Since the read of the old status was not synchronized with anything, an
aggressive CPU re-ordering of memory accesses might have moved that read
up to before the data was even written to the buffer, and another CPU
that cleaned it again, causing the newly dirty state to never actually
hit the disk.

Admittedly this would probably never trigger in practice, but it's still
wrong.

Mikulas sent a patch that fixed the problem, but I dislike the subtlety
of the whole optimization, so this is an alternate fix that is more
explicit about the particular SMP ordering for the optimization, and
separates out the speculative reads of the buffer state into its own
conditional (and makes the memory barrier only happen if we are likely
to actually hit the optimized case in the first place).

I considered removing the optimization entirely, but Andrew argued for
it's continued existence. I'm a push-over.

58e9fee13e [GFS2] Invalidate cache at correct point
GFS2 wasn't invalidating its cache before it called into the lock manager
with a request that could potentially drop a lock.  This was leaving a
window where the lock could be actually be held by another node, but the
file's page cache would still appear valid, causing coherency problems.
This patch moves the cache invalidation to before the lock manager call
when dropping a lock. It also adds the option to the lock_dlm lock
manager to not use conversion mode deadlock avoidance, which, on a
conversion from shared to exclusive, could internally drop the lock, and
then reacquire in. GFS2 now asks lock_dlm to not do this.  Instead, GFS2
manually drops the lock and reacquires it.

9b8c81d1de [GFS2] Allow bmap to allocate extents
We've supported mapping of extents when no block allocation is required
for some time. This patch extends that to mapping of extents when an
allocation has been requested. In that case we try to allocate as many
blocks as are requested, but we might return fewer in case there is
something preventing us from returning the complete amount (e.g. an
already allocated block is in the way).

Currently the only code path which can actually request multiple data
blocks in a single bmap call is the page_mkwrite path and even then it
only happens if there are multiple blocks per page. What this patch does
do however, is merge the allocation requests for metadata (growing the
metadata tree in either height or depth) with the allocation of the data
blocks in the case that both are needed. This results in lower overheads
even in the single block allocation case.

The one thing which we can't handle here at the moment is unstuffing. I
would like to be able to do that, but the problem which arises is that
in order to unstuff one has to get a locked page from the page cache
which results in locking problems in the (usual) case that the caller is
holding the page lock on the page it wishes to map. So that case will
have to be addressed in future patches.

7afd88d916 [GFS2] Fix a page lock / glock deadlock
We've previously been using a "try lock" in readpage on the basis that
it would prevent deadlocks due to the inverted lock ordering (our normal
lock ordering is glock first and then page lock). Unfortunately tests
have shown that this isn't enough. If the glock has a demote request
queued such that run_queue() in the glock code tries to do a demote when
its called under readpage then it will try and write out all the dirty
pages which requires locking them. This then deadlocks with the page
locked by readpage.

The solution is to always require two calls into readpage. The first
unlocks the page, gets the glock and returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, the
second does the actual readpage and unlocks the glock & page as
required.

77658aad22 [GFS2] Eliminate (almost) duplicate field from gfs2_inode
The blocks counter is almost a duplicate of the i_blocks
field in the VFS inode. The only difference is that i_blocks
can be only 32bits long for 32bit arch without large single file
support. Since GFS2 doesn't handle the non-large single file
case (for 32 bit anyway) this adds a new config dependency on
64BIT || LSF. This has always been the case, however we've never
explicitly said so before.

Even if we do add support for the non-LSF case, we will still
not require this field to be duplicated since we will not be
able to access oversized files anyway.

So the net result of all this is that we shave 8 bytes from a gfs2_inode
and get our config deps correct.

allows the block allocator to allocate an extent. Since there is

941e6d7d09 [GFS2] Speed up gfs2_write_alloc_required, deprecate gfs2_extent_map
This patch removes the call to gfs2_extent_map from gfs2_write_alloc_required,
instead we call gfs2_block_map directly. This results in fewer overall calls
to gfs2_block_map in the multi-block case.

Also, gfs2_extent_map is marked as deprecated so that people know that its
going away as soon as all the callers have been converted.

5214b729e1 afs: prevent double cell registration
kafs doesn't check if the cell already exists - so if you do an echo "add
newcell.org 1.2.3.4" >/proc/fs/afs/cells it will try to create this cell
again.  kobject will also complain about a double registration.  To prevent
such problems, return -EEXIST in that case.

5b41e74ad1 vfs: fix data leak in nobh_write_end()
Current nobh_write_end() implementation ignore partial writes(copied < len)
case if page was fully mapped and simply mark page as Uptodate, which is
totally wrong because area [pos+copied, pos+len) wasn't updated explicitly in
previous write_begin call.  It simply contains garbage from pagecache and
result in data leakage.

As you can see file's page contains garbage from pagecache instead of zeros.
#TEST_CASE_END

Attached patch:
- Add sanity check BUG_ON in order to prevent incorrect usage by caller,
  This is function invariant because page can has buffers and in no zero
  *fadata pointer at the same time.
- Always attach buffers to page is it is partial write case.
- Always switch back to generic_write_end if page has buffers.
  This is reasonable because if page already has buffer then generic_write_begin
  was called previously.

commit e9720ac ([NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3))
broke ganglia and probably other applications that read /proc/net/dev.

This is due to the change of permissions of /proc/net that was
introduced in that commit.

Before: dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Mar 19 11:30 /proc/net
After: dr-xr--r-- 5 root root 0 Mar 19 11:29 /proc/self/net

This patch restores the permissions to the old value which makes
ganglia happy again.

journal data block needs unescaping.  At the moment the wrong buffer head's
data is being unescaped.

To test this case mount a filesystem with data=journal, start creating and
deleting a bunch of files containing only JBD2_MAGIC_NUMBER (0xc03b3998), then
pull the plug on the device.  Without this patch the files will contain zeros

4ebf89845b ROMFS: Fix up an error in iget removal
Fix up an error in iget removal in which romfs_lookup() making a successful
call to romfs_iget() continues through the negative/error handling (previously
the successful case jumped around the negative/error handling case):

 (1) inode is initialised to NULL at the top of the function, eliminating the
     need for specific negative-inode handling.  This means the positive
     success handling now flows straight through.

 (2) Rename the labels to be clearer about what they mean.

Also make romfs_lookup()'s result variable of type long so as to avoid
32-bit/64-bit conversions with PTR_ERR() and friends.

Based upon a report and patch from Adam Richter.

c587f0c0a6 ext3: fix wrong gfp type under transaction
There are several places where we make allocations with GFP_KERNEL while under
a transaction, which could lead to an assertion panic or lockup if under
memory pressure.  This patch switches these problem areas to use GFP_NOFS to
keep these problems from happening.

6cb2a21049 aio: bad AIO race in aio_complete() leads to process hang
My group ran into a AIO process hang on a 2.6.24 kernel with the process
sleeping indefinitely in io_getevents(2) waiting for the last wakeup to come
and it never would.

We ran the tests on x86_64 SMP.  The hang only occurred on a Xeon box
("Clovertown") but not a Core2Duo ("Conroe").  On the Xeon, the L2 cache isn't
shared between all eight processors, but is L2 is shared between between all
two processors on the Core2Duo we use.

My analysis of the hang is if you go down to the second while-loop
in read_events(), what happens on processor #1:
	1) add_wait_queue_exclusive() adds thread to ctx->wait
	2) aio_read_evt() to check tail
	3) if aio_read_evt() returned 0, call [io_]schedule() and sleep

In aio_complete() with processor #2:
	A) info->tail = tail;
	B) waitqueue_active(&ctx->wait)
	C) if waitqueue_active() returned non-0, call wake_up()

The way the code is written, step 1 must be seen by all other processors
before processor 1 checks for pending events in step 2 (that were recorded by
step A) and step A by processor 2 must be seen by all other processors
(checked in step 2) before step B is done.

The race I believed I was seeing is that steps 1 and 2 were
effectively swapped due to the __list_add() being delayed by the L2
cache not shared by some of the other processors.  Imagine:
proc 2: just before step A
proc 1, step 1: adds to ctx->wait, but is not visible by other processors yet
proc 1, step 2: checks tail and sees no pending events
proc 2, step A: updates tail
proc 1, step 3: calls [io_]schedule() and sleeps
proc 2, step B: checks ctx->wait, but sees no one waiting, skips wakeup
                so proc 1 sleeps indefinitely

My patch adds a memory barrier between steps A and B.  It ensures that the
update in step 1 gets seen on processor 2 before continuing.  If processor 1
was just before step 1, the memory barrier makes sure that step A (update
tail) gets seen by the time processor 1 makes it to step 2 (check tail).

Before the patch our AIO process would hang virtually 100% of the time.  After
the patch, we have yet to see the process ever hang.

f8512ad0da nfs: don't ignore return value from nfs_pageio_add_request
Ignoring the return value from nfs_pageio_add_request can cause deadlocks.

In read path:
  call nfs_pageio_add_request from readpage_async_filler
  assume at this point that there are requests already in desc, that
    can't be merged with the current request.
  so nfs_pageio_doio is fired up to clear out desc.
  assume something goes wrong in setting up the io, so desc->pg_error is set.
  This causes nfs_pageio_add_request to return 0, *WITHOUT* adding the original
    request.
  BUT, since return code is ignored, readpage_async_filler assumes it has
    been added, and does nothing further, leaving page locked.
  do_generic_mapping_read will eventually call lock_page, resulting in deadlock

In write path:
  page is marked dirty by generic_perform_write
  nfs_writepages is called
  call nfs_pageio_add_request from nfs_page_async_flush
  assume at this point that there are requests already in desc, that
    can't be merged with the current request.
  so nfs_pageio_doio is fired up to clear out desc.
  assume something goes wrong in setting up the io, so desc->pg_error is set.
  This causes nfs_page_async_flush to return 0, *WITHOUT* adding the original
    request, yet marking the request as locked (PG_BUSY) and in writeback,
    clearing dirty marks.
  The next time a write is done to the page, deadlock will result as
    nfs_write_end calls nfs_update_request

a02f76c34d [PATCH] get stack footprint of pathname resolution back to relative sanity
Somebody had put struct nameidata in stack frame of link_path_walk().
Unfortunately, there are certain realities to deal with:
	* It's in the middle of recursion.  Depth is equal to the nesting
depth of symlinks, i.e. up to 8.
	* struct namiedata is, even if one discards the intent junk,
at least 12 pointers + 5 ints.
	* moreover, adding a stack frame is not free in that situation.
	* there are fs methods called on top of that, and they also have
stack footprint.
	* kernel stack is not infinite.

The thing is, even if one chooses to deal with -ESTALE that way (and it's
one hell of an overkill), the only thing that needs to be preserved is
vfsmount + dentry, not the entire struct nameidata.

3227e14c3c [PATCH] reiserfs: eliminate private use of struct file in xattr
After several posts and bug reports regarding interaction with the NULL
nameidata, here's a patch to clean up the mess with struct file in the
reiserfs xattr code.

As observed in several of the posts, there's really no need for struct file
to exist in the xattr code.  It was really only passed around due to the
f_op->readdir() and a_ops->{prepare,commit}_write prototypes requiring it.

reiserfs_prepare_write() and reiserfs_commit_write() don't actually use the
struct file passed to it, and the xattr code uses a private version of
reiserfs_readdir() to enumerate the xattr directories.

b663c6fd98 nfsd: fix oops on access from high-numbered ports
This bug was always here, but before my commit 6fa02839bf
("recheck for secure ports in fh_verify"), it could only be triggered by
failure of a kmalloc().  After that commit it could be triggered by a
client making a request from a non-reserved port for access to an export
marked "secure".  (Exports are "secure" by default.)

The result is a struct svc_export with a reference count one too low,
resulting in likely oopses next time the export is accessed.

The reference counting here is not straightforward; a later patch will
clean up fh_verify().

8b1327f6ed [CIFS] file create with acl support enabled is slow
Shirish Pargaonkar noted:
With cifsacl mount option, when a file is created on the Windows server,
exclusive oplock is broken right away because the get cifs acl code
again opens the file to obtain security descriptor.
The client does not have the newly created file handle or inode in any
of its lists yet so it does not respond to oplock break and server waits for
its duration and then responds to the second open. This slows down file
creation signficantly.  The fix is to pass the file descriptor to the get
cifsacl code wherever available so that get cifs acl code does not send
second open (NT Create ANDX) and oplock is not broken.

is completed. Yes, we don't wait for the dlm_purge_lockres() to do that

from being freed prematurely.

2c5c54aca9 ocfs2/dlm: Add missing dlm_lock_put()s
Normally locks for remote nodes are freed when that node sends an UNLOCK
message to the master. The master node tags an DLM_UNLOCK_FREE_LOCK action
to do an extra put on the lock at the end.

However, there are times when the master node has to free the locks for the
remote nodes forcibly.

Two cases when this happens are:
1. When the master has migrated the lockres plus all locks to another node.
2. When the master is clearing all the locks of a dead node.

It was in the above two conditions that the dlm was missing the extra put.

0f71b7b40f ocfs2: Fix endian bug in o2dlm protocol negotiation.
struct dlm_query_join_packet is made up of four one-byte fields.  They
are effectively in big-endian order already.  However, little-endian
machines swap them before putting the packet on the wire (because
query_join's response is a status, and that status is treated as a u32
on the wire).  Thus, a big-endian and little-endian machines will
treat this structure differently.

The solution is to have little-endian machines swap the structure when
converting from the structure to the u32 representation.

the res->spinlock. While in some cases, we use it without this
precondition and lead to the failure of assert_spin_locked.
So call dlm_print_one_lock_resource instead.

4e99a1ff34 NFS: Fix dentry revalidation for NFSv4 referrals and mountpoint crossings
As long as the directory contents haven't changed, we should just let the
path walk proceed to cross the mountpoint. Apart from being an optimisation
in the case of 'nohide' mountpoint traversals, it also fixes an issue with
referrals: referral inodes don't have valid filehandles, so calling
nfs_revalidate_inode() on them is a bug.

c37dcd334c NFS: Fix the fsid revalidation in nfs_update_inode()
When we detect that we've crossed a mountpoint on the remote server, we
must take care not to use that inode to revalidate the fsid on our
current superblock. To do so, we label the inode as a remote mountpoint,
and check for that in nfs_update_inode().

e9720acd72 [NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3)
Current /proc/net is done with so called "shadows", but current
implementation is broken and has little chances to get fixed.

The problem is that dentries subtree of /proc/net directory has
fancy revalidation rules to make processes living in different
net namespaces see different entries in /proc/net subtree, but
currently, tasks see in the /proc/net subdir the contents of any
other namespace, depending on who opened the file first.

The proposed fix is to turn /proc/net into a symlink, which points
to /proc/self/net, which in turn shows what previously was in
/proc/net - the network-related info, from the net namespace the
appropriate task lives in.

# ls -l /proc/net
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 8 Mar  5 15:17 /proc/net -> self/net

In other words - this behaves like /proc/mounts, but unlike
"mounts", "net" is not a file, but a directory.

Changes from v2:
* Fixed discrepancy of /proc/net nlink count and selinux labeling
  screwup pointed out by Stephen.

  To get the correct nlink count the ->getattr callback for /proc/net
  is overridden to read one from the net->proc_net entry.

  To make selinux still work the net->proc_net entry is initialized
  properly, i.e. with the "net" name and the proc_net parent.

Selinux fixes are

72772a3b5b [XFS] fix inode leak in xfs_iget_core()
If the radix_tree_preload() fails, we need to destroy the inode we just
read in before trying again. This could leak xfs_vnode structures when
there is memory pressure. Noticed by Christoph Hellwig.

wakeups

Idle state is not being detected properly by the xfsaild push code. The
current idle state is detected by an empty list which may never happen
with mostly idle filesystem or one using lazy superblock counters. A
single dirty item in the list that exists beyond the push target can
result repeated looping attempting to push up to the target because it
fails to check if the push target has been acheived or not.

Fix by considering a dirty list with everything past the target as an idle
state and set the timeout appropriately.

f9c3a38021 NFS: use new LSM interfaces to explicitly set mount options
NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS
specific knowledge built in.  This design was approved by both groups
back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and
the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile
solution.  This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making
use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own
mount options.

The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb
functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount
options for filesystems which use text mount data.

This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not
exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression.  I will be
adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3
code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

e000752989 LSM/SELinux: Interfaces to allow FS to control mount options
Introduce new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to deal with their own mount
options.  This includes a new string parsing function exported from the
LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security
data blob.  This is particularly useful for an FS which uses binary
mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be
handled by the loaded LSM.  Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK
when dealing with binary mount data.  If the binary mount data is less
than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an
illegal page fault and boom.  Remove all NFSisms from the SELinux code
since they were broken by past NFS changes.
