2006-09-16[PATCH] ext3 sequential read regression fixSuparna Bhattacharya
ext3-get-blocks support caused ~20% degrade in Sequential read performance (tiobench). Problem is with marking the buffer boundary so IO can be submitted right away. Here is the patch to fix it. 2.6.18-rc6: ----------- # ./iotest 1048576+0 records in 1048576+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 75.2726 seconds, 57.1 MB/s real 1m15.285s user 0m0.276s sys 0m3.884s 2.6.18-rc6 + fix: ----------------- [root@elm3a241 ~]# ./iotest 1048576+0 records in 1048576+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 62.9356 seconds, 68.2 MB/s The boundary block check in ext3_get_blocks_handle needs to be adjusted against the count of blocks mapped in this call, now that it can map more than one block.

2006-09-08[PATCH] NFS: large non-page-aligned direct I/O clobbers memoryTrond Myklebust
The logic in nfs_direct_read_schedule and nfs_direct_write_schedule can allow data->npages to be one larger than rpages. This causes a page pointer to be written beyond the end of the pagevec in nfs_read_data (or nfs_write_data). Fix this by making nfs_(read|write)_alloc() calculate the size of the pagevec array, and initialise data->npages. Also get rid of the redundant argument to nfs_commit_alloc().

It ends up returning -EIO. Here is the patch to fix it. If we really want to be paranoid, we can allow return values 0 (HOLE), 1 (we asked for one block) and return -EIO for more than 1 block. But I really don't see a reason for doing it - all we need is the block# here. (doesn't matter how many blocks are mapped). ext3_get_blocks_handle() returns number of blocks it mapped. It returns 0 in case of HOLE. ext3_getblk() should handle HOLE properly (currently its dumping warning stack and returning -EIO).

2006-09-07[XFS] Prevent free space oversubscription and xfssyncd looping.David Chinner
The fix for recent ENOSPC deadlocks introduced certain limitations on allocations. The fix could cause xfssyncd to loop endlessly if we did not leave some space free for the allocator to work correctly. Basically, we needed to ensure that we had at least 4 blocks free for an AG free list and a block for the inode bmap btree at all times. However, this did not take into account the fact that each AG has a free list that needs 4 blocks. Hence any filesystem with more than one AG could cause oversubscription of free space and make xfssyncd spin forever trying to allocate space needed for AG freelists that was not available in the AG. The following patch reserves space for the free lists in all AGs plus the inode bmap btree which prevents oversubscription. It also prevents those blocks from being reported as free space (as they can never be used) and makes the SMP in-core superblock accounting code and the reserved block ioctl respect this requirement.

2006-08-27[PATCH] ufs: truncate correctionEvgeniy Dushistov
1) When we allocated last fragment in ufs_truncate, we read page, check if block mapped to address, and if not trying to allocate it. This is wrong behaviour, fragment may be NOT allocated, but mapped, this happened because of "block map" function not checked allocated fragment or not, it just take address of the first fragment in the block, add offset of fragment and return result, this is correct behaviour in almost all situation except call from ufs_truncate. 2) Almost all implementation of UFS, which I can investigate have such "defect": if you have full disk, and try truncate file, for example 3GB to 2MB, and have hole in this region, truncate return -ENOSPC. I tried evade from this problem, but "block allocation" algorithm is tied to right value of i_lastfrag, and fix of this corner case may slow down of ordinaries scenarios, so this patch makes behavior of "truncate" operations similar to what other UFS implementations do.

2006-08-27[PATCH] ufs: write to hole in big fileEvgeniy Dushistov
On UFS, this scenario: open(O_TRUNC) lseek(1024 * 1024 * 80) write("A") lseek(1024 * 2) write("A") may cause access to invalid address. This happened because of "goal" is calculated in wrong way in block allocation path, as I see this problem exists also in 2.4. We use construction like this i_data[lastfrag], i_data array of pointers to direct blocks, indirect and so on, it has ceratain size ~20 elements, and lastfrag may have value for example 40000. Also this patch fixes related to handling such scenario issues, wrong zeroing metadata, in case of block(not fragment) allocation, and wrong goal calculation, when we allocate block Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Dushistov <dushistov@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-08-24NFS: Check lengths more thoroughly in NFS4 readdir XDR decodeDavid Howells
Check the bounds of length specifiers more thoroughly in the XDR decoding of NFS4 readdir reply data. Currently, if the server returns a bitmap or attr length that causes the current decode point pointer to wrap, this could go undetected (consider a small "negative" length on a 32-bit machine). Also add a check into the main XDR decode handler to make sure that the amount of data is a multiple of four bytes (as specified by RFC-1014). This makes sure that we can do u32* pointer subtraction in the NFS client without risking an undefined result (the result is undefined if the pointers are not correctly aligned with respect to one another).

2006-08-24VFS: add lookup hint for network file systemsASANO Masahiro
I'm trying to speeding up mkdir(2) for network file systems. A typical mkdir(2) calls two inode_operations: lookup and mkdir. The lookup operation would fail with ENOENT in common case. I think it is unnecessary because the subsequent mkdir operation can check it. In case of creat(2), lookup operation is called with the LOOKUP_CREATE flag, so individual filesystem can omit real lookup. e.g. nfs_lookup(). Here is a sample patch which uses LOOKUP_CREATE and O_EXCL on mkdir, symlink and mknod. This uses the gadget for creat(2). And here is the result of a benchmark on NFSv3. mkdir(2) 10,000 times: original 50.5 sec patched 29.0 sec Signed-off-by: ASANO Masahiro <masano@tnes.nec.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> (cherry picked from fab7bf44449b29f9d5572a5dd8adcf7c91d5bf0f commit)
2006-08-24NFS: Fix a potential deadlock in nfs_release_pageNikita Danilov
nfs_wb_page() waits on request completion and, as a result, is not safe to be called from nfs_release_page() invoked by VM scanner as part of GFP_NOFS allocation. Fix possible deadlock by analyzing gfp mask and refusing to release page if __GFP_FS is not set.

2006-08-22Fix possible UDF deadlock and memory corruption (CVE-2006-4145)Jan Kara
UDF code is not really ready to handle extents larger that 1GB. This is the easy way to forbid creating those. Also truncation code did not count with the case when there are no extents in the file and we are extending the file.

2006-08-21[PATCH] Fix current_io_context() vs set_task_ioprio() raceOleg Nesterov
I know nothing about io scheduler, but I suspect set_task_ioprio() is not safe. current_io_context() initializes "struct io_context", then sets ->io_context. set_task_ioprio() running on another cpu may see the changes out of order, so ->set_ioprio(ioc) may use io_context which was not initialized properly.

2006-08-14[PATCH] fcntl(F_SETSIG) fixTrond Myklebust
fcntl(F_SETSIG) no longer works on leases because lease_release_private_callback() gets called as the lease is copied in order to initialise it. The problem is that lease_alloc() performs an unnecessary initialisation, which sets the lease_manager_ops. Avoid the problem by allocating the target lease structure using locks_alloc_lock().
