2006-10-17[PATCH] ISDN: fix drivers, by handling errors thrown by ->readstat()Jeff Garzik
This is a particularly ugly on-failure bug, possibly security, since the lack of error handling here is covering up another class of bug: failure to handle copy_to_user() return values. The I4L API function ->readstat() returns an integer, and by looking at several existing driver implementations, it is clear that a negative return value was meant to indicate an error. Given that several drivers already return a negative value indicating an errno-style error, the current code would blindly accept that [negative] value as a valid amount of bytes read. Obvious damage ensues. Correcting ->readstat() handling to properly notice errors fixes the existing code to work correctly on error, and enables future patches to more easily indicate errors during operation.

2006-10-17[PATCH] Convert cpu hotplug notifiers to use raw_notifier instead of ↵Neil Brown
blocking_notifier The use of blocking notifier by _cpu_up and _cpu_down in cpu.c has two problem. 1/ An interaction with the workqueue notifier causes lockdep to spit a warning. 2/ A notifier could conceivable be added or removed while _cpu_up or _cpu_down are in process. As each notifier is called twice (prepare then commit/abort) this could be unhealthy. To fix to we simply take cpu_add_remove_lock while adding or removing notifiers to/from the list. This makes the 'blocking' usage unnecessary as all accesses to cpu_chain are now protected by cpu_add_remove_lock. So change "blocking" to "raw" in all relevant places. This fixes 1.

2006-10-17[PATCH] Fix IO error reporting on fsync()Jan Kara
When IO error happens on metadata buffer, buffer is freed from memory and later fsync() is called, filesystems like ext2 fail to report EIO. We solve the problem by introducing a pointer to associated address space into the buffer_head. When a buffer is removed from a list of metadata buffers associated with an address space, IO error is transferred from the buffer to the address space, so that fsync can later report it.

2006-10-17[PATCH] knfsd: Allow lockd to drop replies as appropriateNeilBrown
It is possible for the ->fopen callback from lockd into nfsd to find that an answer cannot be given straight away (an upcall is needed) and so the request has to be 'dropped', to be retried later. That error status is not currently propagated back. So: Change nlm_fopen to return nlm error codes (rather than a private protocol) and define a new nlm_drop_reply code. Cause nlm_drop_reply to cause the rpc request to get rpc_drop_reply when this error comes back. Cause svc_process to drop a request which returns a status of rpc_drop_reply.

2006-10-17[PATCH] knfsd: Fix bug in recent lockd patches that can cause reclaim to failNeilBrown
When an nfs server shuts down, lockd needs to release all the locks even though the client still holds them. It should therefore not 'unmonitor' the clients, so that the files in nfs/sm will still be there when the nfs server restarts, so that those clients will be told to reclaim their locks. However the hosts are fully unmonitored, so statd may well remove the files. lockd has a test for 'sm_sticky' and avoid the unmonitor call if it is set, but it is currently not set. So set it when tearing down lockd. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-10-17[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: fix owner-override on openJ. Bruce Fields
If a client creates a file using an open which sets the mode to 000, or if a chmod changes permissions after a file is opened, then situations may arise where an NFS client knows that some IO is permitted (because a process holds the file open), but the NFS server does not (because it doesn't know about the open, and only sees that the IO conflicts with the current mode of the file). As a hack to solve this problem, NFS servers normally allow the owner to override permissions on IO. The client can still enforce correct permissions-checking on open by performing an explicit access check. In NFSv4 the client can rely on the explicit on-the-wire open instead of an access check. Therefore we should not be allowing the owner to override permissions on an over-the-wire open! However, we should still allow the owner to override permissions in the case where the client is claiming an open that it already made either before a reboot, or while it was holding a delegation.

2006-10-17[PATCH] fuse: fix handling of moved directoryMiklos Szeredi
Fuse considered it an error (EIO) if lookup returned a directory inode, to which a dentry already refered. This is because directory aliases are not allowed. But in a network filesystem this could happen legitimately, if a directory is moved on a remote client. This patch attempts to relax the restriction by trying to first evict the offending alias from the cache. If this fails, it still returns an error (EBUSY). A rarer situation is if an mkdir races with an indenpendent lookup, which finds the newly created directory already moved. In this situation the mkdir should return success, but that would be incorrect, since the dentry cannot be instantiated, so return EBUSY. Previously checking for a directory alias and instantiation of the dentry weren't done atomically in lookup/mkdir, hence two such calls racing with each other could create aliased directories. To prevent this introduce a new per-connection mutex: fuse_conn->inst_mutex, which is taken for instantiations with a directory inode.
