* Merge remote branch 'origin' into secretlab/next-devicetreeGrant Likely2010-05-226983-213241/+473129
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Merging in current state of Linus' tree to deal with merge conflicts and build failures in vio.c after merge. Conflicts: drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-cpm.c drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c drivers/net/gianfar.c Also fixed up one line in arch/powerpc/kernel/vio.c to use the correct node pointer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't put struct file on the stack as it takes up quite a lot of space and violates lifetime rules for struct file. Rather than calling afs_readpage() indirectly from the directory routines by way of read_mapping_page(), split afs_readpage() to have afs_page_filler() that's given a key instead of a file and call read_cache_page(), specifying the new function directly. Use it in afs_readpages() as well. Also make use of this in afs_mntpt_check_symlink() too for the same reason.

| | * Ban ecryptfs over ecryptfsAl Viro2010-05-221-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a seriously simplified patch from Eric Sandeen; copy of rationale follows: === mounting stacked ecryptfs on ecryptfs has been shown to lead to bugs in testing. For crypto info in xattr, there is no mechanism for handling this at all, and for normal file headers, we run into other trouble: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008 IP: [<ffffffffa015b0b3>] ecryptfs_d_revalidate+0x43/0xa0 [ecryptfs] ... There doesn't seem to be any good usecase for this, so I'd suggest just disallowing the configuration. Based on a patch originally, I believe, from Mike Halcrow. === Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

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...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | anon_inode_mkinode() sets inode->i_mode = S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR; This means that (inode->i_mode & S_IFMT) == 0. This trips up some SELinux code that needs to determine if a given inode is a regular file, a directory, etc. The easiest solution is to just make sure that the anon_inode also sets S_IFREG.

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.
