The current isofs treatment of hidden files is flawed in two ways. First,
it does not provide sufficient granularity; it hides both 'hidden' files
and 'associated' files (resource fork for Mac files). Second, the default
behavior to completely strip hidden files, while an admirable
implementation of the spec, is a poor choice given the real world use of
hidden files as a poor mans copy protection scheme for MSDOS and Windows
based systems. A longer description of this is available here:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0205.3/0267.html
This patch was originally built after a few private conversations with Alan
Cox; I shamefully failed to persist in seeing it go forward, I hope to make
amends now.
This patch introduces granularity by allowing explicit control for both
hidden and associated files. It also reverses the default so that by
default, hidden files are treated as regular files on the iso9660 file
system.
This allow Wine to process Windows CDs, including those that are hybrid
Mac/Windows CDs properly and completely, without our having to go muck up
peoples fstabs as we do now. (I have tested this with such a hybrid +
hidden CD and have verified that this patch works as claimed).

The bug in rock.c is that it's totally trusting of the contents of the
directories. If the directory says there's a continuation 10000 bytes into
this 4k block then we cheerily poke around in memory we don't own and oops.
So change rock_continue() to apply various sanity checks, at least ensuring
that the offset+length remain within the bounds for the header part of a
struct rock_ridge directory entry.
Note that the kernel can still overindex the buffer due to the variable size
of the rock-ridge directory entries. We cannot check that in rock_continue()
unless we go parse the directory entry's signature and work out its size.

For browsable autofs maps, a mount request that arrives at the same time an
expire is happening can fail to perform the needed mount.
This happens becuase the directory exists and so the revalidate succeeds when
we need it to fail so that lookup is called on the same dentry to do the
mount. Instead lookup is called on the next path component which should be
whithin the mount, but the parent isn't mounted.
The solution is to allow the revalidate to continue and perform the mount as
no directory creation (at mount time) is needed for browsable mount entries.

At the tail end of an expire it's possible for a process to enter
autofs4_wait, with a waitq type of NFY_NONE but find that the expire is
finished. In this cause autofs4_wait will try to create a new wait but not
notify the daemon leading to a hang. As the wait type is meant to delay mount
requests from revalidate or lookup during an expire and the expire is done all
we need to do is check if the dentry is a mountpoint. If it's not then we're
done.

Ingo recently introduced a great speedup for allocating new mmaps using the
free_area_cache pointer which boosts the specweb SSL benchmark by 4-5% and
causes huge performance increases in thread creation.
The downside of this patch is that it does lead to fragmentation in the
mmap-ed areas (visible via /proc/self/maps), such that some applications
that work fine under 2.4 kernels quickly run out of memory on any 2.6
kernel.
The problem is twofold:
1) the free_area_cache is used to continue a search for memory where
the last search ended. Before the change new areas were always
searched from the base address on.
So now new small areas are cluttering holes of all sizes
throughout the whole mmap-able region whereas before small holes
tended to close holes near the base leaving holes far from the base
large and available for larger requests.
2) the free_area_cache also is set to the location of the last
munmap-ed area so in scenarios where we allocate e.g. five regions of
1K each, then free regions 4 2 3 in this order the next request for 1K
will be placed in the position of the old region 3, whereas before we
appended it to the still active region 1, placing it at the location
of the old region 2. Before we had 1 free region of 2K, now we only
get two free regions of 1K -> fragmentation.
The patch addresses thes issues by introducing yet another cache descriptor
cached_hole_size that contains the largest known hole size below the
current free_area_cache. If a new request comes in the size is compared
against the cached_hole_size and if the request can be filled with a hole
below free_area_cache the search is started from the base instead.
The results look promising: Whereas 2.6.12-rc4 fragments quickly and my
(earlier posted) leakme.c test program terminates after 50000+ iterations
with 96 distinct and fragmented maps in /proc/self/maps it performs nicely
(as expected) with thread creation, Ingo's test_str02 with 20000 threads
requires 0.7s system time.
Taking out Ingo's patch (un-patch available per request) by basically
deleting all mentions of free_area_cache from the kernel and starting the
search for new memory always at the respective bases we observe: leakme
terminates successfully with 11 distinctive hardly fragmented areas in
/proc/self/maps but thread creating is gringdingly slow: 30+s(!) system
time for Ingo's test_str02 with 20000 threads.
Now - drumroll ;-) the appended patch works fine with leakme: it ends with
only 7 distinct areas in /proc/self/maps and also thread creation seems
sufficiently fast with 0.71s for 20000 threads.

This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that
Arjan van de Ven and I came up with.
The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API
spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the
usage side.
Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the
complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined
__smp_processor_id.
In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols:
- smp_processor_id(): debug variant.
- raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing
uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined
by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h.
There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT:
- debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to
smp_processor_id().
Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new
lib/smp_processor_id.c file. All related comments got updated and/or
clarified.
I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86:
{SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT}
I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT. (Other
architectures are untested, but should work just fine.)

Based on the discussion about spufs attributes, this is my suggestion
for a more generic attribute file support that can be used by both
debugfs and spufs.
Simple attribute files behave similarly to sequential files from
a kernel programmers perspective in that a standard set of file
operations is provided and only an open operation needs to
be written that registers file specific get() and set() functions.
These operations are defined as
void foo_set(void *data, u64 val); and
u64 foo_get(void *data);
where data is the inode->u.generic_ip pointer of the file and the
operations just need to make send of that pointer. The infrastructure
makes sure this works correctly with concurrent access and partial
read calls.
A macro named DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE is provided to further simplify
using the attributes.
This patch already contains the changes for debugfs to use attributes
for its internal file operations.

We should never apply a lookup intent to anything other than the last
path component in an open(), create() or access() call.
Introduce the helper nfs_lookup_check_intent() which always returns
zero if LOOKUP_CONTINUE or LOOKUP_PARENT are set, and returns the
intent flags if we're on the last component of the lookup.
By doing so, we fix a bug in open(O_EXCL), where we may end up
optimizing away a real lookup of the parent directory.

Getting rid of sloppy logics:
a) in do_follow_link() we have the wrong vfsmount dropped if our symlink
had been mounted on something. Currently it worls only because we never
get such situation (modulo filesystem playing dirty tricks on us). And
it obfuscates already convoluted logics...
b) same goes for open_namei().
c) in __link_path_walk() we have another "it should never happen" sloppiness -
out_dput: there does double-free on underlying vfsmount and leaks the covering
one if we hit it just after crossing a mountpoint. Again, wrong vfsmount
getting dropped.
d) another too-early-mntput() race - in do_follow_mount() we need to postpone
conditional mntput(path->mnt) until after dput(path->dentry). Again, this one
happens only in it-currently-never-happens-unless-some-fs-plays-dirty

In open_namei(), __follow_down() loop turned into __follow_mount().
Instead of
if we are on a mountpoint dentry
if O_NOFOLLOW checks fail
drop path.dentry
drop nd
return
do equivalent of follow_mount(&path.mnt, &path.dentry)
nd->mnt = path.mnt
we do
if __follow_mount(path) had, indeed, traversed mountpoint
/* now both nd->mnt and path.mnt are pinned down */
if O_NOFOLLOW checks fail
drop path.dentry
drop path.mnt
drop nd
return
mntput(nd->mnt)
nd->mnt = path.mnt
Now __follow_down() can be folded into follow_down() - no other callers left.
We need to reorder dput()/mntput() there - same problem as in follow_mount().
Equivalent transformation + fix for a bug in O_NOFOLLOW handling - we used to
get -ELOOP if we had the same fs mounted on /foo and /bar, had something bound
on /bar/baz and tried to open /foo/baz with O_NOFOLLOW. And fix of
too-early-mntput() race in follow_down()
