a98ee8c1c7 [CIFS] fix regression in cifs_write_begin/cifs_write_end
The conversion to write_begin/write_end interfaces had a bug where we
were passing a bad parameter to cifs_readpage_worker. Rather than
passing the page offset of the start of the write, we needed to pass the
offset of the beginning of the page. This was reliably showing up as
data corruption in the fsx-linux test from LTP.

It also became evident that this code was occasionally doing unnecessary
read calls. Optimize those away by using the PG_checked flag to indicate
that the unwritten part of the page has been initialized.

ddb4cbfc53 [CIFS] Do not attempt to close invalidated file handles
If a connection with open file handles has gone down
and come back up and reconnected without reopening
the file handle yet, do not attempt to send an SMB close
request for this handle in cifs_close.  We were
checking for the connection being invalid in cifs_close
but since the connection may have been reconnected
we also need to check whether the file handle
was marked invalid (otherwise we could close the
wrong file handle by accident).

b066a48c95 prevent cifs_writepages() from skipping unwritten pages
Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left
dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed.

In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages()
asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time.
Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling
pagevec_lookup_tag() again.

If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting
index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of
the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing
with them.  This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about
to be closed.

This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so
that none get skipped.

3b79521093 [CIFS] Fix cifs reconnection flags
In preparation for Jeff's big umount/mount fixes to remove the possibility of
various races in cifs mount and linked list handling of sessions, sockets and
tree connections, this patch cleans up some repetitive code in cifs_mount,
and addresses a problem with ses->status and tcon->tidStatus in which we
were overloading the "need_reconnect" state with other status in that
field.  So the "need_reconnect" flag has been broken out from those
two state fields (need reconnect was not mutually exclusive from some of the
other possible tid and ses states).  In addition, a few exit cases in
cifs_mount were cleaned up, and a problem with a tcon flag (for lease support)
was not being set consistently for the 2nd mount of the same share

4f98a2fee8 vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon").  The latter includes tmpfs.

The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.

This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists.  The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

patch was very close, but had a couple of small bugs. Nick's original

This is another relatively naive conversion. Always do the read upfront
when the page is not uptodate (unless we're in the writethrough path).

Fix an uninitialized data exposure where SetPageUptodate was called
before the page was uptodate.

2846d38647 cifs: have find_writeable_file prefer filehandles opened by same task
When the CIFS client goes to write out pages, it needs to pick a
filehandle to write to. find_writeable_file however just picks the
first filehandle that it finds. This can cause problems when a lock
is issued against a particular filehandle and we pick a different
filehandle to write to.

This patch tries to avert this situation by having find_writable_file
prefer filehandles that have a pid that matches the current task.
This seems to fix lock test 11 from the connectathon test suite when
run against a windows server.

838726c475 cifs: fix O_APPEND on directio mounts
The direct I/O write codepath for CIFS is done through
cifs_user_write(). That function does not currently call
generic_write_checks() so the file position isn't being properly set
when the file is opened with O_APPEND.  It's also not doing the other
"normal" checks that should be done for a write call.

The problem is currently that when you open a file with O_APPEND on a
mount with the directio mount option, the file position is set to the
beginning of the file. This makes any subsequent writes clobber the data
in the file starting at the beginning.

This seems to fix the problem in cursory testing. It is, however
important to note that NFS disallows the combination of
(O_DIRECT|O_APPEND). If my understanding is correct, the concern is
races with multiple clients appending to a file clobbering each others'
data. Since the write model for CIFS and NFS is pretty similar in this
regard, CIFS is probably subject to the same sort of races. What's
unclear to me is why this is a particular problem with O_DIRECT and not
with buffered writes...

Regardless, disallowing O_APPEND on an entire mount is probably not
reasonable, so we'll probably just have to deal with it and reevaluate
this flag combination when we get proper support for O_DIRECT. In the
meantime this patch at least fixes the existing problem.

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.

cea218054a [CIFS] Fix potential data corruption when writing out cached dirty pages
Fix RedHat bug 329431

The idea here is separate "conscious" from "unconscious" flushes.
Conscious flushes are those due to a fsync() or close(). Unconscious
ones are flushes that occur as a side effect of some other operation or
due to memory pressure.

Currently, when an error occurs during an unconscious flush (ENOSPC or
EIO), we toss out the page and don't preserve that error to report to
the user when a conscious flush occurs. If after the unconscious flush,
there are no more dirty pages for the inode, the conscious flush will
simply return success even though there were previous errors when writing
out pages. This can lead to data corruption.

The easiest way to reproduce this is to mount up a CIFS share that's
very close to being full or where the user is very close to quota. mv
a file to the share that's slightly larger than the quota allows. The
writes will all succeed (since they go to pagecache). The mv will do a
setattr to set the new file's attributes. This calls
filemap_write_and_wait,
which will return an error since all of the pages can't be written out.
Then later, when the flush and release ops occur, there are no more
dirty pages in pagecache for the file and those operations return 0. mv
then assumes that the file was written out correctly and deletes the
original.

CIFS already has a write_behind_rc variable where it stores the results
from earlier flushes, but that value is only reported in cifs_close.
Since the VFS ignores the return value from the release operation, this
isn't helpful. We should be reporting this error during the flush
operation.

This patch does the following:

1) changes cifs_fsync to use filemap_write_and_wait and cifs_flush and also
sync to check its return code. If it returns successful, they then check
the value of write_behind_rc to see if an earlier flush had reported any
errors. If so, they return that error and clear write_behind_rc.

2) sets write_behind_rc in a few other places where pages are written
out as a side effect of other operations and the code waits on them.

3) changes cifs_setattr to only call filemap_write_and_wait for
ATTR_SIZE changes.

4) makes cifs_writepages accurately distinguish between EIO and ENOSPC
errors when writing out pages.

Some simple testing indicates that the patch works as expected and that
it fixes the reproduceable known problem.

9b22b0b726 [CIFS] Reduce chance of list corruption in find_writable_file
When find_writable_file is racing with close and the session
to the server goes down, Shaggy noticed that there was a
chance that an open file in the list of files off the inode
could have been freed by close since cifs_reconnect can
block (the spinlock thus not held). This means that
we have to start over at the beginning of the list in some
cases.

There is a 2nd change that needs to be made later
(pointed out by Jeremy Allison and Shaggy) in order to
prevent cifs_close ever freeing the cifs per file info
when a write is pending.  Although we delay close from
freeing this memory for sufficiently long for all known
cases, ultimately on a very, very slow write
overlapping a close pending we need to allow close to return
(without freeing the cifs file info) and defer freeing the
memory to be the responsibility of the (sloooow) write
thread (presumably have to look at every place wrtPending
is decremented - and add a flag for deferred free for
after wrtPending goes to zero).

3677db10a6 [CIFS] Fix locking problem around some cifs uses of i_size write
Could cause hangs on smp systems in i_size_read on a cifs inode
whose size has been previously simultaneously updated from
different processes.

Thanks to Brian Wang for some great testing/debugging on this
hard problem.

Fixes kernel bugzilla #7903
