2008-10-23[PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission()Miklos Szeredi
For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites. This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

2008-10-20vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file setsRik van Riel
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

2008-10-14NFS: Fix a resolution problem with nfs_inode->cache_change_attributeTrond Myklebust
The cache_change_attribute is used to decide whether or not a directory has changed, in which case we may need to look it up again. Again, the use of 'jiffies' leads to an issue of resolution. Once again, the fix is to change nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute, and just make it a simple counter. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-14NFS: Fix the resolution problem with nfs_inode_attrs_need_update()Trond Myklebust
It appears that 'jiffies' timestamps do not have high enough resolution for nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(). One problem is that a GETATTR can be launched within < 1 jiffy of the last operation that updated the attribute. Another problem is that RPC calls can take < 1 jiffy to execute. We can fix this by switching the variables to use a simple global counter that gets incremented every time we start another GETATTR call. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-07NFS: Add options for finer control of the lookup cacheTrond Myklebust
Add the flag NFS_MOUNT_LOOKUP_CACHE_NONEG to turn off the caching of negative dentries. In reality what we do is to force nfs_lookup_revalidate() to always discard negative dentries. Add the flag NFS_MOUNT_LOOKUP_CACHE_NONE for enforcing stricter revalidation of dentries. It forces the revalidate code to always do a lookup instead of just checking the cached mtime of the parent directory. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-07-15NFS: Remove BKL from NFS lookup codeTrond Myklebust
All dentry-related operations are already BKL-safe, since they are protected by the VFS locking. No extra locks should be needed in the NFS code. In the case of nfs_revalidate_inode(), we're only doing an attribute update (protected by the inode->i_lock). In the case of nfs_lookup(), we're instantiating a new dentry, so there should be no contention possible until after we call d_materialise_unique.

2008-07-08NFS: Fix readdir cache invalidationTrond Myklebust
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte ranges. Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on page->index==0. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-04-19[PATCH] r/o bind mounts: check mnt instead of superblock directlyDave Hansen
If we depend on the inodes for writeability, we will not catch the r/o mounts when implemented. This patches uses __mnt_want_write(). It does not guarantee that the mount will stay writeable after the check. But, this is OK for one of the checks because it is just for a printk(). The other two are probably unnecessary and duplicate existing checks in the VFS. This won't make them better checks than before, but it will make them detect r/o mounts.

2008-03-14SUNRPC: Add a helper rpcauth_lookup_generic_cred()Trond Myklebust
The NFSv4 protocol allows clients to negotiate security protocols on the fly in the case where an administrator on the server changes the export settings and/or in the case where we may have a filesystem migration event. Instead of having the NFS client code cache credentials that are tied to a particular AUTH method it is therefore preferable to have a generic credential that can be converted into whatever AUTH is in use by the RPC client when the read/write/sillyrename/... is put on the wire. We do this by means of the new "generic" credential, which basically just caches the minimal information that is needed to look up an RPCSEC_GSS, AUTH_SYS, or AUTH_NULL credential.

2008-03-07NFS: Fix dentry revalidation for NFSv4 referrals and mountpoint crossingsTrond Myklebust
As long as the directory contents haven't changed, we should just let the path walk proceed to cross the mountpoint. Apart from being an optimisation in the case of 'nohide' mountpoint traversals, it also fixes an issue with referrals: referral inodes don't have valid filehandles, so calling nfs_revalidate_inode() on them is a bug.

2007-10-19NFS: Fix a race in sillyrenameTrond Myklebust
lookup() and sillyrename() can race one another because the sillyrename() completion cannot take the parent directory's inode->i_mutex since the latter may be held by whoever is calling dput(). We therefore have little option but to add extra locking to ensure that nfs_lookup() and nfs_atomic_open() do not race with the sillyrename completion. If somebody has looked up the sillyrenamed file in the meantime, we just transfer the sillydelete information to the new dentry.
