* [PATCH] Revert bd_mount_mutex back to a semaphoreDavid Chinner2007-01-124-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert bd_mount_mutex back to a semaphore so that xfs_freeze -f /mnt/newtest; xfs_freeze -u /mnt/newtest works safely and doesn't produce lockdep warnings. (XFS unlocks the semaphore from a different task, by design.

* [PATCH] NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()Trond Myklebust2007-01-121-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page() invalidate_inode_pages2() may find the dirty bit has been set on a page owing to the fact that the page may still be mapped after it was locked. Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page can no longer be dirtied. In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference to the inode or dentry. Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

* [PATCH] fix garbage instead of zeroes in UFSEvgeniy Dushistov2007-01-062-36/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Looks like this is the problem, which point Al Viro some time ago: ufs's get_block callback allocates 16k of disk at a time, and links that entire 16k into the file's metadata. But because get_block is called for only a single buffer_head (a 2k buffer_head in this case?) we are only able to tell the VFS that this 2k is buffer_new(). So when ufs_getfrag_block() is later called to map some more data in the file, and when that data resides within the remaining 14k of this fragment, ufs_getfrag_block() will incorrectly return a !buffer_new() buffer_head. I don't see _right_ way to do nullification of whole block, if use inode page cache, some pages may be outside of inode limits (inode size), and will be lost; if use blockdev page cache it is possible to zero real data, if later inode page cache will be used. The simpliest way, as can I see usage of block device page cache, but not only mark dirty, but also sync it during "nullification". I use my simple tests collection, which I used for check that create,open,write,read,close works on ufs, and I see that this patch makes ufs code 18% slower then before.

* [PATCH] fix memory corruption from misinterpreted bad_inode_ops return valuesEric Sandeen2007-01-061-41/+289
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CVE-2006-5753 is for a case where an inode can be marked bad, switching the ops to bad_inode_ops, which are all connected as: static int return_EIO(void) { return -EIO; } #define EIO_ERROR ((void *) (return_EIO)) static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops = { .create = bad_inode_create ...etc... The problem here is that the void cast causes return types to not be promoted, and for ops such as listxattr which expect more than 32 bits of return value, the 32-bit -EIO is interpreted as a large positive 64-bit number, i.e. 0x00000000fffffffa instead of 0xfffffffa. This goes particularly badly when the return value is taken as a number of bytes to copy into, say, a user's buffer for example... I originally had coded up the fix by creating a return_EIO_<TYPE> macro for each return type, like this: static int return_EIO_int(void) { return -EIO; } #define EIO_ERROR_INT ((void *) (return_EIO_int)) static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops = { .create = EIO_ERROR_INT, ...etc... but Al felt that it was probably better to create an EIO-returner for each actual op signature. Since so few ops share a signature, I just went ahead & created an EIO function for each individual file & inode op that returns a value.

* | [PATCH] Fix lock inversion aio_kick_handler()Zach Brown2006-12-301-4/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lockdep found a AB BC CA lock inversion in retry-based AIO: 1) The task struct's alloc_lock (A) is acquired in process context with interrupts enabled. An interrupt might arrive and call wake_up() which grabs the wait queue's q->lock (B). 2) When performing retry-based AIO the AIO core registers aio_wake_function() as the wake funtion for iocb->ki_wait. It is called with the wait queue's q->lock (B) held and then tries to add the iocb to the run list after acquiring the ctx_lock (C). 3) aio_kick_handler() holds the ctx_lock (C) while acquiring the alloc_lock (A) via lock_task() and unuse_mm(). Lockdep emits a warning saying that we're trying to connect the irq-safe q->lock to the irq-unsafe alloc_lock via ctx_lock. This fixes the inversion by calling unuse_mm() in the AIO kick handing path after we've released the ctx_lock. As Ben LaHaise pointed out __put_ioctx could set ctx->mm to NULL, so we must only access ctx->mm while we have the lock.

* [PATCH] jbd: wait for already submitted t_sync_datalist buffer to completeHisashi Hifumi2006-12-221-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and waited for IO completion. But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was not waited for IO completion. Following patch solves this problem. If it is assumed that a buffer is submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

This was the eCryptfs copy_attr_all: > -void ecryptfs_copy_attr_all(struct inode *dest, const struct inode *src) > -{ > - dest->i_mode = src->i_mode; > - dest->i_nlink = src->i_nlink; > - dest->i_uid = src->i_uid; > - dest->i_gid = src->i_gid; > - dest->i_rdev = src->i_rdev; > - dest->i_atime = src->i_atime; > - dest->i_mtime = src->i_mtime; > - dest->i_ctime = src->i_ctime; > - dest->i_blkbits = src->i_blkbits; > - dest->i_flags = src->i_flags; > -} This is the fsstack copy_attr_all: > +void fsstack_copy_attr_all(struct inode *dest, const struct inode *src, > + int (*get_nlinks)(struct inode *)) > +{ > + if (!get_nlinks) > + dest->i_nlink = src->i_nlink; > + else > + dest->i_nlink = (*get_nlinks)(dest); > + > + dest->i_mode = src->i_mode; > + dest->i_uid = src->i_uid; > + dest->i_gid = src->i_gid; > + dest->i_rdev = src->i_rdev; > + dest->i_atime = src->i_atime; > + dest->i_mtime = src->i_mtime; > + dest->i_ctime = src->i_ctime; > + dest->i_blkbits = src->i_blkbits; > + dest->i_flags = src->i_flags; > + > + fsstack_copy_inode_size(dest, src); > +} The addition of copy_inode_size breaks eCryptfs, since eCryptfs needs to interpolate the file sizes (eCryptfs has extra space in the lower file for the header). The setting of the upper inode size occurs elsewhere in eCryptfs, and the new copy_attr_all now undoes what eCryptfs was doing right beforehand. I see three ways of going forward from here. (1) Something like this patch needs to go in (assuming it jives with Unionfs), (2) we need to make a change to the fsstack API for more fine-grained control over copying attributes (e.g., by also including a callback function for calculating the right file size, which will require some more work on both eCryptfs and Unionfs), or (3) the fsstack patch on eCryptfs (commit 0cc72dc7f050188d8d7344b1dd688cbc68d3cd30 made on Fri Dec 8 02:36:31 2006 -0800) needs to be yanked in 2.6.20. I think the simplest solution, from eCryptfs' perspective, is to just remove the inode size copy. Remove inode size copy in general fsstack attr copy code. Stacked filesystems may need to interpolate the inode size, since the file size in the lower file may be different than the file size in the stacked layer.

* [PATCH] Fix XFS after clear_page_dirty() removalDavid Chinner2006-12-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | XFS appears to call clear_page_dirty to get the mapping tree dirty tag set correctly at the same time the page dirty flag is cleared. I note that this can be done by set_page_writeback() if we clear the dirty flag on the page first when we are writing back the entire page. Hence it seems to me that the XFS call to clear_page_dirty() could easily be substituted by clear_page_dirty_for_io() followed by a call to set_page_writeback() to get the mapping tree tags set correctly after the page has been marked clean.

* VM: Remove "clear_page_dirty()" and "test_clear_page_dirty()" functionsLinus Torvalds2006-12-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | They were horribly easy to mis-use because of their tempting naming, and they also did way more than any users of them generally wanted them to do. A dirty page can become clean under two circumstances: (a) when we write it out. We have "clear_page_dirty_for_io()" for this, and that function remains unchanged. In the "for IO" case it is not sufficient to just clear the dirty bit, you also have to mark the page as being under writeback etc. (b) when we actually remove a page due to it becoming inaccessible to users, notably because it was truncate()'d away or the file (or metadata) no longer exists, and we thus want to cancel any outstanding dirty state. For the (b) case, we now introduce "cancel_dirty_page()", which only touches the page state itself, and verifies that the page is not mapped (since cancelling writes on a mapped page would be actively wrong as it is still accessible to users). Some filesystems need to be fixed up for this: CIFS, FUSE, JFS, ReiserFS, XFS all use the old confusing functions, and will be fixed separately in subsequent commits (with some of them just removing the offending logic, and others using clear_page_dirty_for_io()). This was confirmed by Martin Michlmayr to fix the apt database corruption on ARM.

The following scenario : create dir a create dir a/b cd a/b (some process goes in cwd a/b) rmdir a/b rmdir a fails due to the fact that "a" appears to be non empty. It is because the "b" dentry is not deleted from "a" and still in use. The same problem happens if "b" is a file. d_delete is nice enough to know when it needs to unhash and free the dentry if nothing else is using it or, if someone is using it, to remove it from the hash queues and wait for it to be deleted when it has no users.

* [PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() callsRobert P. J. Day2006-12-1312-22/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Run this: #!/bin/sh for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do echo "De-casting $f..." perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f done And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers to non-pointers. And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

* [PATCH] knfsd: Fix up some bit-rot in exp_exportNeilBrown2006-12-131-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The nfsservctl system call isn't used but recent nfs-utils releases for exporting filesystems, and consequently the code that is uses - exp_export - has suffered some bitrot. Particular: - some newly added fields in 'struct svc_export' are being initialised properly. - the return value is now always -ENOMEM ... This patch fixes both these problems.

| | | | | | | | | | | | I'm not too fond of these big if conditions. Replace them by checks of a flag in the operation descriptor.

I want a unified interface to these operations so we can just call them by pointer and throw out the huge switch statement.

* [PATCH] knfsd: nfsd: don't drop silently on upcall deferralJ.Bruce Fields2006-12-133-6/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To avoid tying up server threads when nfsd makes an upcall (to mountd, to get export options, to idmapd, for nfsv4 name<->id mapping, etc.), we temporarily "drop" the request and save enough information so that we can revisit it later. Certain failures during the deferral process can cause us to really drop the request and never revisit it. This is often less than ideal, and is unacceptable in the NFSv4 case--rfc 3530 forbids the server from dropping a request without also closing the connection. As a first step, we modify the deferral code to return -ETIMEDOUT (which is translated to nfserr_jukebox in the v3 and v4 cases, and remains a drop in the v2 case). Signed-off-by: J.
