2006-10-11[PATCH] VFS: Destroy the dentries contributed by a superblock on unmountingDavid Howells
The attached patch destroys all the dentries attached to a superblock in one go by: (1) Destroying the tree rooted at s_root. (2) Destroying every entry in the anon list, one at a time. (3) Each entry in the anon list has its subtree consumed from the leaves inwards. This reduces the amount of work generic_shutdown_super() does, and avoids iterating through the dentry_unused list. Note that locking is almost entirely absent in the shrink_dcache_for_umount*() functions added by this patch. This is because: (1) at the point the filesystem calls generic_shutdown_super(), it is not permitted to further touch the superblock's set of dentries, and nor may it remove aliases from inodes; (2) the dcache memory shrinker now skips dentries that are being unmounted; and (3) the superblock no longer has any external references through which the VFS can reach it. Given these points, the only locking we need to do is when we remove dentries from the unused list and the name hashes, which we do a directory's worth at a time. We also don't need to guard against reference counts going to zero unexpectedly and removing bits of the tree we're working on as nothing else can call dput(). A cut down version of dentry_iput() has been folded into shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree() function. Apart from not needing to unlock things, it also doesn't need to check for inotify watches. In this version of the patch, the complaint about a dentry still being in use has been expanded from a single BUG_ON() and now gives much more information.

2006-10-11[PATCH] AUTOFS: Make sure all dentries refs are released before calling ↵David Howells
kill_anon_super() Make sure all dentries refs are released before calling kill_anon_super() so that the assumption that generic_shutdown_super() can completely destroy the dentry tree for there will be no external references holds true. What was being done in the put_super() superblock op, is now done in the kill_sb() filesystem op instead, prior to calling kill_anon_super(). This makes the struct autofs_sb_info::root member variable redundant (since sb->s_root is still available), and so that is removed. The calls to shrink_dcache_sb() are also removed since they're also redundant as shrink_dcache_for_umount() will now be called after the cleanup routine.

2006-10-11[PATCH] lockdep: fix printk recursion logicIngo Molnar
Bug reported and fixed by Tilman Schmidt <tilman@imap.cc>: if lockdep is enabled then log messages make it to /var/log/messages belatedly. The reason is a missed wakeup of klogd. Initially there was only a lockdep_internal() protection against lockdep recursion within vprintk() - it grew the 'outer' lockdep_off()/on() protection only later on. But that lockdep_off() made the release_console_sem() within vprintk() always happen under the lockdep_internal() condition, causing the bug. The right solution to remove the inner protection against recursion here - the outer one is enough.

2006-10-11[PATCH] fix lockdep-design.txtAneesh Kumar
I was looking at lockdep-desing.txt and i guess i am confused with the changes with respect to fd7bcea35e7efb108c34ee2b3840942a3749cadb. It says + '.' acquired while irqs enabled + '+' acquired in irq context + '-' acquired in process context with irqs disabled + '?' read-acquired both with irqs enabled and in irq context + But the get_usage_chars() function does this for '-' if (class->usage_mask & LOCKF_ENABLED_HARDIRQS) *c1 = '-'; So i guess what would be correct would be '.' acquired while irqs disabled '+' acquired in irq context '-' acquired with irqs enabled '?' read acquired in irq context with irqs enabled.

If try_to_release_page() is called with a zero gfp mask, then the filesystem is effectively denied the possibility of sleeping while attempting to release the page. There doesn't appear to be any valid reason why this should be banned, given that we're not calling this from a memory allocation context.

2006-10-11[PATCH] bitmap: parse input from kernel and user buffersReinette Chatre
lib/bitmap.c:bitmap_parse() is a library function that received as input a user buffer. This seemed to have originated from the way the write_proc function of the /proc filesystem operates. This has been reworked to not use kmalloc and eliminates a lot of get_user() overhead by performing one access_ok before using __get_user(). We need to test if we are in kernel or user space (is_user) and access the buffer differently. We cannot use __get_user() to access kernel addresses in all cases, for example in architectures with separate address space for kernel and user. This function will be useful for other uses as well; for example, taking input for /sysfs instead of /proc, so it was changed to accept kernel buffers. We have this use for the Linux UWB project, as part as the upcoming bandwidth allocator code. Only a few routines used this function and they were changed too.
