* /proc/meminfo: provide estimated available memoryRik van Riel2014-01-221-0/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many load balancing and workload placing programs check /proc/meminfo to estimate how much free memory is available. They generally do this by adding up "free" and "cached", which was fine ten years ago, but is pretty much guaranteed to be wrong today. It is wrong because Cached includes memory that is not freeable as page cache, for example shared memory segments, tmpfs, and ramfs, and it does not include reclaimable slab memory, which can take up a large fraction of system memory on mostly idle systems with lots of files. Currently, the amount of memory that is available for a new workload, without pushing the system into swap, can be estimated from MemFree, Active(file), Inactive(file), and SReclaimable, as well as the "low" watermarks from /proc/zoneinfo. However, this may change in the future, and user space really should not be expected to know kernel internals to come up with an estimate for the amount of free memory. It is more convenient to provide such an estimate in /proc/meminfo. If things change in the future, we only have to change it in one place.

* fs/ramfs: don't use module_init for non-modular core codePaul Gortmaker2014-01-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ramfs is always built in. It will never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is rather misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level 5-fs (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that small difference has been observed during testing, or is expected. Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the registration of the initcall.

* fs/super.c: fix WARN on alloc_super() fail pathVladimir Davydov2014-01-221-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On fail path alloc_super() calls destroy_super(), which issues a warning if the sb's s_mounts list is not empty, in particular if it has not been initialized. That said s_mounts must be initialized in alloc_super() before any possible failure, but currently it is initialized close to the end of the function leading to a useless warning dumped to log if either percpu_counter_init() or list_lru_init() fails. Let's fix this.

* fs/read_write.c:compat_readv(): remove bogus area verifyCorey Minyard2014-01-221-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The compat_do_readv_writev() function was doing a verify_area on the incoming iov, but the nr_segs value is not checked. If someone passes in a -1 for nr_segs, for instance, the function should return an EINVAL. However, it returns a EFAULT because the verify_area fails because it is checking an array of size MAX_UINT. The check is bogus, anyway, because the next check, compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), will do all the necessary checking, anyway. The non-compat do_readv_writev() function doesn't do this check, so I think it's safe to just remove the code.

* ocfs2: use the new DLM operation callbacks while requesting new lockspaceGoldwyn Rodrigues2014-01-221-24/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempt to use the new DLM operations. If it is not supported, use the traditional ocfs2_controld. To exchange ocfs2 versioning, we use the LVB of the version dlm lock. It first attempts to take the lock in EX mode (non-blocking). If successful (which means it is the first mount), it writes the version number and downconverts to PR lock. If it is unsuccessful, it reads the version from the lock. If this becomes the standard (with o2cb as well), it could simplify userspace tools to check if the filesystem is mounted on other nodes. Dan: Since ocfs2_protocol_version are two u8 values, the additional checks with LONG* don't make sense.

* ocfs2: shift allocation ocfs2_live_connection to user_connect()Goldwyn Rodrigues2014-01-221-19/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We perform this because the DLM recovery callbacks will require the ocfs2_live_connection structure to record the node information when dlm_new_lockspace() is updated (in the last patch of the series). Before calling dlm_new_lockspace(), we need the structure ready for the .recover_done() callback, which would set oc_this_node. This is the reason we allocate ocfs2_live_connection beforehand in user_connect(). [AKPM] rc initialization is not required because it assigned in case of errors. It will be cleared by compiler anyways.

* ocfs2: add clustername to cluster connectionGoldwyn Rodrigues2014-01-225-7/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an effort of removing ocfs2_controld.pcmk and getting ocfs2 DLM handling up to the times with respect to DLM (>=4.0.1) and corosync (2.3.x). AFAIK, cman also is being phased out for a unified corosync cluster stack. fs/dlm performs all the functions with respect to fencing and node management and provides the API's to do so for ocfs2. For all future references, DLM stands for fs/dlm code. The advantages are: + No need to run an additional userspace daemon (ocfs2_controld) + No controld device handling and controld protocol + Shifting responsibilities of node management to DLM layer For backward compatibility, we are keeping the controld handling code. Once enough time has passed we can remove a significant portion of the code. This was tested by using the kernel with changes on older unmodified tools. The kernel used ocfs2_controld as expected, and displayed the appropriate warning message. This feature requires modification in the userspace ocfs2-tools. The changes can be found at: https://github.com/goldwynr/ocfs2-tools branch: nocontrold Currently, not many checks are present in the userspace code, but that would change soon.

* fsnotify: do not share events between notification groupsJan Kara2014-01-2210-611/+279
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently fsnotify framework creates one event structure for each notification event and links this event into all interested notification groups. This is done so that we save memory when several notification groups are interested in the event. However the need for event structure shared between inotify & fanotify bloats the event structure so the result is often higher memory consumption. Another problem is that fsnotify framework keeps path references with outstanding events so that fanotify can return open file descriptors with its events. This has the undesirable effect that filesystem cannot be unmounted while there are outstanding events - a regression for inotify compared to a situation before it was converted to fsnotify framework. For fanotify this problem is hard to avoid and users of fanotify should kind of expect this behavior when they ask for file descriptors from notified files. This patch changes fsnotify and its users to create separate event structure for each group. This allows for much simpler code (~400 lines removed by this patch) and also smaller event structures. For example on 64-bit system original struct fsnotify_event consumes 120 bytes, plus additional space for file name, additional 24 bytes for second and each subsequent group linking the event, and additional 32 bytes for each inotify group for private data. After the conversion inotify event consumes 48 bytes plus space for file name which is considerably less memory unless file names are long and there are several groups interested in the events (both of which are uncommon). Fanotify event fits in 56 bytes after the conversion (fanotify doesn't care about file names so its events don't have to have it allocated). A win unless there are four or more fanotify groups interested in the event. The conversion also solves the problem with unmount when only inotify is used as we don't have to grab path references for inotify events.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once created, a kernfs_node is always destroyed by kernfs_put(). Since ba7443bc656e ("sysfs, kernfs: implement kernfs_create/destroy_root()"), kernfs_put() depends on kernfs_root() to locate the ino_ida. kernfs_root() in turn depends on kernfs_node->parent being set for !dir nodes. This means that kernfs_put() of a !dir node requires its ->parent to be initialized. This leads to oops when a newly created !dir node is destroyed without going through kernfs_add_one() or after failing kernfs_add_one() before ->parent is set. kernfs_root() invoked from kernfs_put() will try to dereference NULL parent. Fix it by moving parent association to kernfs_new_node() from kernfs_add_one(). kernfs_new_node() now takes @parent instead of @root and determines the root from the parent and also sets the new node's parent properly. @parent parameter is removed from kernfs_add_one(). As there's no parent when creating the root node, __kernfs_new_node() which takes @root as before and doesn't set the parent is used in that case. This ensures that a kernfs_node in any stage in its life has its parent associated and thus can be put.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When kernfs_seq_start() fails to obtain an active reference, it returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). kernfs_seq_stop() is then invoked with the error pointer value; however, it still proceeds to invoke kernfs_put_active() on the node leading to unbalanced put. If kernfs_seq_stop() is called even after active ref failure, it should skip invocation of @ops->seq_stop() and put_active. Unfortunately, this is a bit complicated because active ref failure isn't the only thing which may fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). @ops->seq_start/next() may also fail with the error value and kernfs_seq_stop() doesn't have a way to tell apart those failures. Work it around by factoring out the active part of kernfs_seq_stop() into kernfs_seq_stop_active() and invoking it directly if @ops->seq_start/next() fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and updating kernfs_seq_stop() to skip kernfs_seq_stop_active() on ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). This is a bit nasty but ensures that the active put is skipped iff get_active failed in kernfs_seq_start(). tj: This was originally committed as d92d2e6bd72b but got reverted by 683bb2761fbf along with other kernfs self removal patches. However, this one is an independent fix and shouldn't have been reverted together. Reinstate the change. Sorry about the mess.

This isn't straightforward because of kernfs active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself is sitting on top of. This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous. While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation reliable. The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous. All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file operations, drops the active ref and deactivates using __kernfs_deactivate_self(), removes the self node, and restores active ref to the dead node using __kernfs_reactivate_self() so that the ref is balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't confuse the deactivation path. This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal deletion path will simply be ignored. This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations - even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 > delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is completed by one of the instances. v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements four functions to manipulate deactivation state - deactivate, reactivate and the _self suffixed pair. A new fields kernfs_node->deact_depth is added so that concurrent and nested deactivations are handled properly. kernfs_node->hash is moved so that it's paired with the new field so that it doesn't increase the size of kernfs_node. A kernfs user's lock would normally nest inside active ref but during removal the user may want to perform kernfs_remove() while holding the said lock, which would introduce a reverse locking dependency. This function can be used to break such reverse dependency by allowing deactivation step to performed separately outside user's critical section.

The necessary operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish() performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path too.

It can be fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from kernfs_addrm_finish() to __kernfs_remove(). The function may be called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm. We end up dropping kernfs_mutex in the removal loop and the node may be removed inbetween by someone else. kernfs_unlink_sibling() is updated to test whether the node has already been removed and return accordingly. __kernfs_remove() in turn performs post-unlinking cleanup only if it actually unlinked the node.

| * kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature returnTejun Heo2014-01-101-53/+86

While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult to enforce. It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is accessible. The current behavior in such situations is broken. Whoever enters removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then deactivates. Following removers either return as soon as it notices that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it has already been removed from the hierarchy. In both cases, the following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one. This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules. * When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base ref. * Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked until the target node is fully deactivated and removed. To achieve the above, removal path now first deactivates the subtree, drains it and then unlinks one-by-one. __kernfs_deactivate() is called directly from __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs kernfs_mutex for each descendant to drain active refs. As this means that multiple removers can enter __kernfs_deactivate() for the same node, the function is updated so that it can handle multiple deactivators of the same node - only one actually deactivates but all wait till drain completion. The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained. Combined with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed. v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate(). This is to allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later. Root node removal was broken in v1 patch. Fixed.

It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation - KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new file operations. There's no reason to have them separate making things more complex than necessary. KERNFS_REMOVED is also used to decide whether a node is still visible to vfs layer, which is rather redundant as equivalent determination can be made by testing whether the node is on its parent's children rbtree or not. This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED. * Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life deactivated. This means that we now use both atomic_add() and atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN. The compiler generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation can't be represented as a positive number. Nothing is actually broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs which negates the subtrahend.. * KERNFS_REMOVED tests in add and rename paths are replaced with kernfs_get/put_active() of the target nodes. Due to the way the add path is structured now, active ref handling is done in the callers of kernfs_add_one(). This will be consolidated up later. * kernfs_remove_one() is updated to deactivate instead of setting KERNFS_REMOVED. This removes deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(), which is now renamed to kernfs_drain(). * kernfs_dop_revalidate() now tests RB_EMPTY_NODE(&kn->rb) instead of KERNFS_REMOVED and KERNFS_REMOVED test in kernfs_dir_pos() is dropped. A node which is removed from the children rbtree is not included in the iteration in the first place. This means that a node may be visible through vfs a bit longer - it's now also visible after deactivation until the actual removal. This slightly enlarged window difference doesn't make any difference to the userland. * Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with checks on the active ref. * Some comment style updates in the affected area. v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring. kernfs_active() dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask. The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active() while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate(). While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it needlessly diverges code paths. Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and use KERNFS_LOCKDEP in kernfs_deactivate() too. While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled out when not enabled.

The removal path will be restructured to address the issue. To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters, this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq. This makes deactivation event notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off kernfs_node.
