2010-02-08Revert "nfsd4: fix error return when pseudoroot missing"J. Bruce Fields
Commit f39bde24b275ddc45d fixed the error return from PUTROOTFH in the case where there is no pseudofilesystem. This is really a case we shouldn't hit on a correctly configured server: in the absence of a root filehandle, there's no point accepting version 4 NFS rpc calls at all. But the shared responsibility between kernel and userspace here means the kernel on its own can't eliminate the possiblity of this happening. And we have indeed gotten this wrong in distro's, so new client-side mount code that attempts to negotiate v4 by default first has to work around this case. Therefore when commit f39bde24b275ddc45d arrived at roughly the same time as the new v4-default mount code, which explicitly checked only for the previous error, the result was previously fine mounts suddenly failing. We'll fix both sides for now: revert the error change, and make the client-side mount workaround more robust. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

2010-02-07Fix race in tty_fasync() properlyLinus Torvalds
This reverts commit 703625118069 ("tty: fix race in tty_fasync") and commit b04da8bfdfbb ("fnctl: f_modown should call write_lock_irqsave/ restore") that tried to fix up some of the fallout but was incomplete. It turns out that we really cannot hold 'tty->ctrl_lock' over calling __f_setown, because not only did that cause problems with interrupt disables (which the second commit fixed), it also causes a potential ABBA deadlock due to lock ordering. Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for following up on the issue, and running lockdep to show the problem. It goes roughly like this: - f_getown gets filp->f_owner.lock for reading without interrupts disabled, so an interrupt that happens while that lock is held can cause a lockdep chain from f_owner.lock -> sighand->siglock. - at the same time, the tty->ctrl_lock -> f_owner.lock chain that commit 703625118069 introduced, together with the pre-existing sighand->siglock -> tty->ctrl_lock chain means that we have a lock dependency the other way too. So instead of extending tty->ctrl_lock over the whole __f_setown() call, we now just take a reference to the 'pid' structure while holding the lock, and then release it after having done the __f_setown. That still guarantees that 'struct pid' won't go away from under us, which is all we really ever needed.

The "Untangling ima mess, part 2 with counters" patch messed up the counters. Based on conversations with Al Viro, this patch streamlines ima_path_check() by removing the counter maintaince. The counters are now updated independently, from measuring the file, in __dentry_open() and alloc_file() by calling ima_counts_get(). ima_path_check() is called from nfsd and do_filp_open(). It also did not measure all files that should have been measured. Reason: ima_path_check() got bogus value passed as mask.

Thanks Thomas and Christoph for testing and review. I removed 'smp_wmb()' before up_write from the previous patch, since up_write() should have necessary ordering constraints. (I.e. the change of s_frozen is visible to others after up_write) I'm quite sure the change is harmless but if you are uncomfortable with Tested-by/Reviewed-by on the modified patch, please remove them. If MS_RDONLY, freeze_bdev should just up_write(s_umount) instead of deactivate_locked_super(). Also, keep sb->s_frozen consistent so that remount can check the frozen state. Otherwise a crash reported here can happen: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/16/37 http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/28/53 This patch should be applied for 2.6.32 stable series, too.

2010-02-04Btrfs: do not try and lookup the file extent when finishing ordered ioJosef Bacik
When running the following fio job [torrent] filename=torrent-test rw=randwrite size=4g filesize=4g bs=4k ioengine=sync you would see long stalls where no work was being done. That is because we were doing all this extra work to read in the file extent outside of the transaction, however in the random io case this ends up hurting us because the file extents are not there to begin with. So axe this logic, since we end up reading in the file extent when we go to update it anyway. This took the fio job from 11 mb/s with several ~10 second stalls to 24 mb/s to a couple of 1-2 second stalls.

2010-02-04Btrfs: remove BUG_ON() due to mounting bad filesystemMiao Xie
Mounting a bad filesystem caused a BUG_ON(). The following is steps to reproduce it. # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda2 # mount /dev/sda2 /mnt # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 (the program says that /dev/sda2 was mounted, and then exits. ) # umount /mnt # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt At the third step, mkfs.btrfs exited in the way of make filesystem. So the initialization of the filesystem didn't finish. So the filesystem was bad, and it caused BUG_ON() when mounting it. But BUG_ON() should be called by the wrong code, not user's operation, so I think it is a bug of btrfs. This patch fixes it.

2010-02-03ocfs2/dlm: Remove BUG_ON in dlm recovery when freeing locks of a dead nodeSunil Mushran
During recovery, the dlm frees the locks for the dead node. If it finds a lock in a resource for the dead node, it expects that node to also have a ref in that lock resource. If not, it BUGs. ossbz#1175 was filed with the above BUG. Now, while it is correct that we should be expecting the ref, I see no reason why we have to BUG. After all, we are freeing up the lock and clearing the ref. This patch replaces the BUG_ON with a printk().

2010-02-03NFS: Fix an Oops when truncating a fileTrond Myklebust
The VM/VFS does not allow mapping->a_ops->invalidatepage() to fail. Unfortunately, nfs_wb_page_cancel() may fail if a fatal signal occurs. Since the NFS code assumes that the page stays mapped for as long as the writeback is active, we can end up Oopsing (among other things). The only safe fix here is to convert nfs_wait_on_request(), so as to make it uninterruptible (as is already the case with wait_on_page_writeback()).

2010-02-03GFS2: Extend umount wait coverage to full glock lifetimeSteven Whitehouse
Although all glocks are, by the time of the umount glock wait, scheduled for demotion, some of them haven't made it far enough through the process for the original set of waiting code to wait for them. This extends the ref count to the whole glock lifetime in order to ensure that the waiting does catch all glocks.

2010-02-02ocfs2: Do not downconvert if the lock level is already compatibleSunil Mushran
During upconvert, if the master were to send a BAST, dlmglue will detect the upconversion in process and send a cancel convert to the master. Upon receiving the AST for the cancel convert, it will re-process the lock resource to determine whether it needs downconverting. Say, the up was from PR to EX and the BAST was for EX. After the cancel convert, it will need to downconvert to NL. However, if the node was originally upconverting from NL to EX, then there would be no reason to downconvert (assuming the same message sequence). This patch makes dlmglue consider the possibility that the current lock level is already compatible and that downconverting is not required.

In CoW, we have to make sure that the page is already written out to the disk. So we have a BUG_ON(PageDirty(page)). In ppc platform we have pagesize=64K, so if the cs=4K, if the file have fragmented clusters, we will map the page many times. See this file as an example.

We have to replace the extent recs one by one, so the page with index 0 will be mapped and dirtied twice.

2010-02-02mm: flush dcache before writing into page to avoid aliasanfei zhou
The cache alias problem will happen if the changes of user shared mapping is not flushed before copying, then user and kernel mapping may be mapped into two different cache line, it is impossible to guarantee the coherence after iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic. So the right steps should be: flush_dcache_page(page); kmap_atomic(page); write to page; kunmap_atomic(page); flush_dcache_page(page); More precisely, we might create two new APIs flush_dcache_user_page and flush_dcache_kern_page to replace the two flush_dcache_page accordingly. Here is a snippet tested on omap2430 with VIPT cache, and I think it is not ARM-specific: int val = 0x11111111; fd = open("abc", O_RDWR); addr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); *(addr+0) = 0x44444444; tmp = *(addr+0); *(addr+1) = 0x77777777; write(fd, &val, sizeof(int)); close(fd); The results are not always 0x11111111 0x77777777 at the beginning as expected.

That made sense from a technical standpoint, but when we then also combined it with the actual personality setting going in between flush_old_exec() and setup_new_exec(), it needs to be a bit more careful. In particular, we need to make sure that we really flush the old personality bits in the 'flush' stage, rather than later in the 'setup' stage, since otherwise we might be flushing the _new_ personality state that we're just setting up. So this moves the flags and personality flushing (and 'flush_thread()', which is the arch-specific function that generally resets lazy FP state etc) of the old process into flush_old_exec(), so that it doesn't affect any state that execve() is setting up for the new process environment. This was reported by Michal Simek as breaking his Microblaze qemu environment.
