* | Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki2007-05-092-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

* | fs: convert core functions to zero_user_pageNate Diller2007-05-093-60/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's very common for file systems to need to zero part or all of a page, the simplist way is just to use kmap_atomic() and memset(). There's actually a library function in include/linux/highmem.h that does exactly that, but it's confusingly named memclear_highpage_flush(), which is descriptive of *how* it does the work rather than what the *purpose* is. So this patchset renames the function to zero_user_page(), and calls it from the various places that currently open code it. This first patch introduces the new function call, and converts all the core kernel callsites, both the open-coded ones and the old memclear_highpage_flush() ones. Following this patch is a series of conversions for each file system individually, per AKPM, and finally a patch deprecating the old call. The diffstat below shows the entire patchset.

* | knfsd: avoid Oops if buggy userspace performs confusing filehandle->dentry ↵NeilBrown2007-05-091-6/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mapping When a lookup request arrives, nfsd uses information provided by userspace (mountd) to find the right filesystem. It then assumes that the same filehandle type as the incoming filehandle can be used to create an outgoing filehandle. However if mountd is buggy, or maybe just being creative, the filesystem may not support that filesystem type, and the kernel could oops, particularly if 'ex_uuid' is NULL but a FSID_UUID* filehandle type is used. So add some proper checking that the fsid version/type from the incoming filehandle is actually supportable, and ignore that information if it isn't supportable.

* | RPC: add wrapper for svc_reserve to account for checksumJeff Layton2007-05-092-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the kernel calls svc_reserve to downsize the expected size of an RPC reply, it fails to account for the possibility of a checksum at the end of the packet. If a client mounts a NFSv2/3 with sec=krb5i/p, and does I/O then you'll generally see messages similar to this in the server's ring buffer: RPC request reserved 164 but used 208 While I was never able to verify it, I suspect that this problem is also the root cause of some oopses I've seen under these conditions: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227726 This is probably also a problem for other sec= types and for NFSv4. The large reserved size for NFSv4 compound packets seems to generally paper over the problem, however. This patch adds a wrapper for svc_reserve that accounts for the possibility of a checksum. It also fixes up the appropriate callers of svc_reserve to call the wrapper. For now, it just uses a hardcoded value that I determined via testing. That value may need to be revised upward as things change, or we may want to eventually add a new auth_op that attempts to calculate this somehow. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a good way to reliably determine the expected checksum length prior to actually calculating it, particularly with schemes like spkm3.

* | The NFSv2/NFSv3 server does not handle zero length WRITE requests correctlyPeter Staubach2007-05-092-17/+77
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The NFSv2 and NFSv3 servers do not handle WRITE requests for 0 bytes correctly. The specifications indicate that the server should accept the request, but it should mostly turn into a no-op. Currently, the server will return an XDR decode error, which it should not. Attached is a patch which addresses this issue. It also adds some boundary checking to ensure that the request contains as much data as was requested to be written. It also correctly handles an NFSv3 request which requests to write more data than the server has stated that it is prepared to handle. Previously, there was some support which looked like it should work, but wasn't quite right.

AFS writeback attempts to batch writes into as chunks as large as it can manage up to the point that it writes back 65535 pages in one chunk or it meets a locked page. Furthermore, if a page has been written to using a particular key, then should another write to that page use some other key, the first write will be flushed before the second is allowed to take place. If the first write fails due to a security error, then the page will be scrapped and reread before the second write takes place. If a page is dirty and the callback on it is broken by the server, then the dirty data is not discarded (same behaviour as NFS). Shared-writable mappings are not supported by this patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem that has been addressed is that of synchronising updates of the file size with writes that extend a file. Without the fix the update of a file's size, as a result of a write beyond eof, is independent of when the cached data is flushed to disk. Often the file size update would be written to the filesystem log before the data is flushed to disk. When a system crashes between these two events and the filesystem log is replayed on mount the file's size will be set but since the contents never made it to disk the file is full of holes. If some of the cached data was flushed to disk then it may just be a section of the file at the end that has holes. There are existing fixes to help alleviate this problem, particularly in the case where a file has been truncated, that force cached data to be flushed to disk when the file is closed. If the system crashes while the file(s) are still open then this flushing will never occur. The fix that we have implemented is to introduce a second file size, called the in-memory file size, that represents the current file size as viewed by the user. The existing file size, called the on-disk file size, is the one that get's written to the filesystem log and we only update it when it is safe to do so. When we write to a file beyond eof we only update the in- memory file size in the write operation. Later when the I/O operation, that flushes the cached data to disk completes, an I/O completion routine will update the on-disk file size. The on-disk file size will be updated to the maximum offset of the I/O or to the value of the in-memory file size if the I/O includes eof.

| * [XFS] Fix race condition in xfs_write().Lachlan McIlroy2007-05-081-29/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change addresses a race in xfs_write() where, for direct I/O, the flags need_i_mutex and need_flush are setup before the iolock is acquired. The logic used to setup the flags may change between setting the flags and acquiring the iolock resulting in these flags having incorrect values. For example, if a file is not currently cached then need_i_mutex is set to zero and then if the file is cached before the iolock is acquired we will fail to do the flushinval before the direct write. The flush (and also the call to xfs_zero_eof()) need to be done with the iolock held exclusive so we need to acquire the iolock before checking for cached data (or if the write begins after eof) to prevent this state from changing. For direct I/O I've chosen to always acquire the iolock in shared mode initially and if there is a need to promote it then drop it and reacquire it. There's also some other tidy-ups including removing the O_APPEND offset adjustment since that work is done in generic_write_checks() (and we don't use offset as an input parameter anywhere).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When uquota and oquota (gquota/pquota) are enabled for accounting both are enforced if ether has enforcement active. Conditions: - Both XFS_UQUOTA_ACCT and XFS_GQUOTA_ACCT are enabled. - Either XFS_UQUOTA_ENFD or XFS_OQUOTA_ENFD is enabled. - The usage without enforce is reached at the soft limit. Problems: 1. "repquota" shows all grace time even if no enforcement. 2. we cannot make a file over a hard limits even if no enforcement.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch handles error return values in fs_flush_pages and fs_flushinval_pages. It changes the prototype of fs_flushinval_pages so we can propogate the errors and handle them at higher layers. I also modified xfs_itruncate_start so that it could propogate the error further.

Readahead logic somehow fails to populate the page range with data. It can be because 1) the readahead routine is not always called in the following lines of fs/splice.c: if (!loff || nr_pages > 1) page_cache_readahead(mapping, &in->f_ra, in, index, nr_pages); 2) even called, page_cache_readahead() wont guarantee the pages are there. It wont submit readahead I/O for pages already in the radix tree, or when (ra_pages == 0), or after 256 cache hits. In your case, it should be because of the retried reads, which lead to excessive cache hits, and disables readahead at some time. And that _one_ failure of readahead blocks the whole read process. The application receives EAGAIN and retries the read, but __generic_file_splice_read() refuse to make progress: - in the previous invocation, it has allocated a blank page and inserted it into the radix tree, but never has the chance to start I/O for it: the test of SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK goes before that. - in the retried invocation, the readahead code will neither get out of the cache hit mode, nor will it submit I/O for an already existing page.

The jfsIO thread should set the state before giving up the spinlock, so the waking thread will really wake it. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
