* Make the "word-at-a-time" helper functions more commonly usableLinus Torvalds2012-04-061-32/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses them. This is preparation for that. This moves them into an architecture-specific header file. It's architecture-specific for two reasons: - some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific implementations. Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast bit count instruction, for example. - I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in particular the actual unaligned accesses). So we're likely to have more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using this. (and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the right thing to do, of course) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Everything arriving into if (!dentry) will have need_reval = 1. Indeed, the only way to get there with need_reval reset to 0 would be via if (unlikely(d_need_lookup(dentry))) goto unlazy; if (unlikely(dentry->d_flags & DCACHE_OP_REVALIDATE)) { status = d_revalidate(dentry, nd); if (unlikely(status <= 0)) { if (status != -ECHILD) need_reval = 0; goto unlazy; ... unlazy: /* no assignments to dentry */ if (dentry && unlikely(d_need_lookup(dentry))) { dput(dentry); dentry = NULL; } and if d_need_lookup() had already been false the first time around, it will remain false on the second call as well.

It does very much depend on little-endian logic, but it's a very hot couple of functions under some real loads, and this patch improves the performance of __d_lookup_rcu() and link_path_walk() by up to about 30%. Giving a 10% improvement on some very pathname-heavy benchmarks. Because we do make unaligned accesses past the filename, the optimization is disabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is active, and we effectively depend on the fact that on x86 we don't really ever have the last page of usable RAM followed immediately by any IO memory (due to ACPI tables, BIOS buffer areas etc). Some of the bit operations we do are a bit "subtle". It's commented, but you do need to really think about the code. Or just consider it black magic. Thanks to people on G+ for some of the optimized bit tricks.

* | vfs: split up name hashing in link_path_walk() into helper functionLinus Torvalds2012-03-021-18/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code in link_path_walk() that finds out the length and the hash of the next path component is some of the hottest code in the kernel. And I have a version of it that does things at the full width of the CPU wordsize at a time, but that means that we *really* want to split it up into a separate helper function. So this re-organizes the code a bit and splits the hashing part into a helper function called "hash_name()". It returns the length of the pathname component, while at the same time computing and writing the hash to the appropriate location. The code generation is slightly changed by this patch, but generally for the better - and the added abstraction actually makes the code easier to read too. And the new interface is well suited for replacing just the "hash_name()" function with alternative implementations. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

But it wouldn't matter if it wasn't for the fact that the word-at-a-time dentry name patches want to conditionally replace the function, and uninlining it sets the stage for that. So again, this is a preparatory patch that doesn't change any semantics, and only prepares for a much cleaner and testable word-at-a-time dentry name accessor patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mountpoint crossing is similar to following procfs symlinks - we do not get ->d_revalidate() called for dentry we have arrived at, with unpleasant consequences for NFS4. Simple way to reproduce the problem in mainline: cat >/tmp/a.c <<'EOF' #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> main() { struct flock fl = {.l_type = F_RDLCK, .l_whence = SEEK_SET, .l_len = 1}; if (fcntl(0, F_SETLK, &fl)) perror("setlk"); } EOF cc /tmp/a.c -o /tmp/test then on nfs4: mount --bind file1 file2 /tmp/test < file1 # ok /tmp/test < file2 # spews "setlk: No locks available"... What happens is the missing call of ->d_revalidate() after mountpoint crossing and that's where NFS4 would issue OPEN request to server. The fix is simple - treat mountpoint crossing the same way we deal with following procfs-style symlinks. I.e. set LOOKUP_JUMPED...

* readlinkat: ensure we return ENOENT for the empty pathname for normal lookupsAndy Whitcroft2011-11-021-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the commit below which added O_PATH support to the *at() calls, the error return for readlink/readlinkat for the empty pathname has switched from ENOENT to EINVAL: commit 65cfc6722361570bfe255698d9cd4dccaf47570d Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Date: Sun Mar 13 15:56:26 2011 -0400 readlinkat(), fchownat() and fstatat() with empty relative pathnames This is both unexpected for userspace and makes readlink/readlinkat inconsistant with all other interfaces; and inconsistant with our stated return for these pathnames. As the readlinkat call does not have a flags parameter we cannot use the AT_EMPTY_PATH approach used in the other calls. Therefore expose whether the original path is infact entry via a new user_path_at_empty() path lookup function. Use this to determine whether to default to EINVAL or ENOENT for failures.

* leases: fix write-open/read-lease raceJ. Bruce Fields2011-10-281-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In setlease, we use i_writecount to decide whether we can give out a read lease. In open, we break leases before incrementing i_writecount. There is therefore a window between the break lease and the i_writecount increment when setlease could add a new read lease. This would leave us with a simultaneous write open and read lease, which shouldn't happen. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
