When trying to resize a ext3 fs and you run out of reserved gdt blocks,
you get an error that doesn't actually tell you what went wrong, it just
says that the gdb it picked is not correct, which is the case since you
don't have any reserved gdt blocks left. This patch adds a check to make
sure you have reserved gdt blocks to use, and if not prints out a more
relevant error.

Currently, original metadata buffers are dirtied when they are unfiled
whether the journal has aborted or not. Eventually these buffers will be
written-back to the filesystem by pdflush. This means some metadata
buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling if the journal
aborts. So if both journal abort and system crash happen at the same
time, the filesystem would become inconsistent state. Additionally,
replaying journaled metadata can overwrite the latest metadata on the
filesystem partly. Because, if the journal aborts, journaled metadata are
preserved and replayed during the next mount not to lose uncheckpointed
metadata. This would also break the consistency of the filesystem.
This patch prevents original metadata buffers from being dirtied on abort
by clearing BH_JBDDirty flag from those buffers. Thus, no metadata
buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling.

If we failed to write metadata buffers to the journal space and succeeded
to write the commit record, stale data can be written back to the
filesystem as metadata in the recovery phase.
To avoid this, when we failed to write out metadata buffers, abort the
journal before writing the commit record.

Presently hugepage's vma has a VM_RESERVED flag in order not to be
swapped. But a VM_RESERVED vma isn't core dumped because this flag is
often used for some kernel vmas (e.g. vmalloc, sound related).
Thus hugepages are never dumped and it can't be debugged easily. Many
developers want hugepages to be included into core-dump.
However, We can't read generic VM_RESERVED area because this area is often
IO mapping area. then these area reading may change device state. it is
definitly undesiable side-effect.
So adding a hugepage specific bit to the coredump filter is better. It
will be able to hugepage core dumping and doesn't cause any side-effect to
any i/o devices.
In additional, libhugetlb use hugetlb private mapping pages as anonymous
page. Then, hugepage private mapping pages should be core dumped by
default.
Then, /proc/[pid]/core_dump_filter has two new bits.
- bit 5 mean hugetlb private mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: yes)
- bit 6 mean hugetlb shared mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: no)
I tested by following method.

Christoph Lameter pointed out that ram disk pages also clutter the LRU
lists. When vmscan finds them dirty and tries to clean them, the ram disk
writeback function just redirties the page so that it goes back onto the
active list. Round and round she goes...
With the ram disk driver [rd.c] replaced by the newer 'brd.c', this is no
longer the case, as ram disk pages are no longer maintained on the lru.
[This makes them unmigratable for defrag or memory hot remove, but that
can be addressed by a separate patch series.] However, the ramfs pages
behave like ram disk pages used to, so:
Define new address_space flag [shares address_space flags member with
mapping's gfp mask] to indicate that the address space contains all
unevictable pages. This will provide for efficient testing of ramfs pages
in page_evictable().
Also provide wrapper functions to set/test the unevictable state to
minimize #ifdefs in ramfs driver and any other users of this facility.
Set the unevictable state on address_space structures for new ramfs
inodes. Test the unevictable state in page_evictable() to cull
unevictable pages.
These changes depend on [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

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.

In v9fs_get_inode(), for block, as well as char devices (in theory),
the function init_special_inode() is called to set up callback functions
for file ops. this function uses the file mode's value to determine whether
to use block or char dev functions. In v9fs_inode_from_fid(), the function
p9mode2unixmode() is used, but for all devices it initially returns S_IFBLK,
then uses v9fs_get_inode() to initialise a new inode, then finally uses
v9fs_stat2inode(), which would determine whether the inode is a block or
character device. However, at that point init_special_inode() had already
decided to use the block device functions, so even if the inode's mode is
turned to a character device, the block functions are still used to operate
on them. The attached patch simply calls init_special_inode() again for devices
after parsing device node data in v9fs_stat2inode() so that the proper functions
are used.

Currently reading a directory is implemented in the client code.
This function is not actually a wire operation, but a meta operation
which calls read operations and processes the results.

With extended devt, finding out the partition number becomes a bit
more challenging as subtracting the minor number from that of the
parent device doesn't work anymore. The only thing left is parsing
the partition name which is brittle and not exactly universal (some
have '-' between the device name and partition number while others
don't). This patch introduced partition attribute which contains the
partition number of the device. This should make finding partitions
and its index easier.

when blocks are allocated or freed. A much better way of doing things

de_thread() checks if the old leader was the ->child_reaper, this is not
possible any longer. With the previous patch ->group_leader itself will
change ->child_reaper on exit.
Henceforth find_new_reaper() is the only function (apart from
initialization) which plays with ->child_reaper.

We currently follow blindly what the partition table lies about the
disk, and let the kernel create block devices which can not be accessed.
Trying to identify the device leads to kernel logs full of:
sdb: rw=0, want=73392, limit=28800
attempt to access beyond end of device
Here is an example of a broken partition table, where sda2 starts
behind the end of the disk, and sdb3 is larger than the entire disk:
Disk /dev/sdb: 14 MB, 14745600 bytes
1 heads, 29 sectors/track, 993 cylinders, total 28800 sectors
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 29 7800 3886 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 37801 45601 3900+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb3 15602 73402 28900+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb4 23403 28796 2697 83 Linux
The kernel creates these completely invalid devices, which can not be
accessed, or may lead to other unpredictable failures:
grep . /sys/class/block/sdb*/{start,size}
/sys/class/block/sdb/size:28800
/sys/class/block/sdb1/start:29
/sys/class/block/sdb1/size:7772
/sys/class/block/sdb2/start:37801
/sys/class/block/sdb2/size:7801
/sys/class/block/sdb3/start:15602
/sys/class/block/sdb3/size:57801
/sys/class/block/sdb4/start:23403
/sys/class/block/sdb4/size:5394
With this patch, we ignore partitions which start behind the end of the disk,
and limit partitions to the end of the disk if they pretend to be larger:
grep . /sys/class/block/sdb*/{start,size}
/sys/class/block/sdb/size:28800
/sys/class/block/sdb1/start:29
/sys/class/block/sdb1/size:7772
/sys/class/block/sdb3/start:15602
/sys/class/block/sdb3/size:13198
/sys/class/block/sdb4/start:23403
/sys/class/block/sdb4/size:5394
These warnings are printed to the kernel log:
sdb: p2 ignored, start 37801 is behind the end of the disk
sdb: p3 size 57801 limited to end of disk

binfmt_elf_fdpic seems to have grabbed a hard-coded hack from an ancient
version of binfmt_elf in order to try and fix up initial stack alignment
on multi-threaded x86, which while in addition to being unused, was also
pushed down beyond the first set of operations on the stack pointer,
negating the entire purpose.
These days, we have an architecture independent arch_align_stack(), so we
switch to using that instead. Move the initial alignment up before the
initial stores while we're at it.

Commit 483fad1c3fa1060d7e6710e84a065ad514571739 ("ELF loader support for
auxvec base platform string") introduced AT_BASE_PLATFORM, but only
implemented it for binfmt_elf.
Given that AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE is unconditionally enlarged for us, and
it's only optionally added in for the platforms that set
ELF_BASE_PLATFORM, wire it up for binfmt_elf_fdpic, too.

In case of error, the function open_xa_dir returns an ERR pointer, but
never returns a NULL pointer. So a NULL test that comes after an IS_ERR
test should be deleted.
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@match_bad_null_test@
expression x, E;
statement S1,S2;
@@
x = open_xa_dir(...)
... when != x = E
(
* if (x == NULL && ...) S1 else S2
|
* if (x == NULL || ...) S1 else S2
)
// </smpl>
