2006-10-20[PATCH] bug: nfsd/nfs4xdr.c misuse of ERR_PTR()Al Viro1-10/+11
a) ERR_PTR(nfserr_something) is a bad idea; IS_ERR() will be false for it. b) mixing nfserr_.... with -EOPNOTSUPP is even worse idea. nfsd4_path() does both; caller expects to get NFS protocol error out it if anything goes wrong, but if it does we either do not notice (see (a)) or get host-endian negative (see (b)). IOW, that's a case when we can't use ERR_PTR() to return error, even though we return a pointer in case of success.

If invalidate_inode_pages2() fails, then it should in principle just be because the current process was signalled. In that case, we just want to ensure that the inode's page cache remains marked as invalid.

2006-10-20[PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton5-6/+12
Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

The splice_actor may be calling ->prepare_write() and ->commit_write(). We want i_mutex on the inode being written to before calling those so that we don't race i_size changes. The double locking behavior is done elsewhere in splice.c, and if we eventually want _nolock variants of generic_file_splice_write(), fs modules might have to replicate the nasty locking code. We introduce inode_double_lock() and inode_double_unlock() to consolidate the locking rules into one set of functions.

We solve the problem by introducing a pointer to associated address space into the buffer_head.

It is possible for the ->fopen callback from lockd into nfsd to find that an answer cannot be given straight away (an upcall is needed) and so the request has to be 'dropped', to be retried later.

2006-10-17[PATCH] knfsd: Fix bug in recent lockd patches that can cause reclaim to failNeilBrown1-1/+10
When an nfs server shuts down, lockd needs to release all the locks even though the client still holds them. It should therefore not 'unmonitor' the clients, so that the files in nfs/sm will still be there when the nfs server restarts, so that those clients will be told to reclaim their locks. However the hosts are fully unmonitored, so statd may well remove the files. lockd has a test for 'sm_sticky' and avoid the unmonitor call if it is set, but it is currently not set. So set it when tearing down lockd. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-10-17[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: fix owner-override on openJ. Bruce Fields1-7/+5
If a client creates a file using an open which sets the mode to 000, or if a chmod changes permissions after a file is opened, then situations may arise where an NFS client knows that some IO is permitted (because a process holds the file open), but the NFS server does not (because it doesn't know about the open, and only sees that the IO conflicts with the current mode of the file). As a hack to solve this problem, NFS servers normally allow the owner to override permissions on IO. The client can still enforce correct permissions-checking on open by performing an explicit access check. In NFSv4 the client can rely on the explicit on-the-wire open instead of an access check. Therefore we should not be allowing the owner to override permissions on an over-the-wire open! However, we should still allow the owner to override permissions in the case where the client is claiming an open that it already made either before a reboot, or while it was holding a delegation.

2006-10-17[PATCH] fuse: fix handling of moved directoryMiklos Szeredi3-27/+51
Fuse considered it an error (EIO) if lookup returned a directory inode, to which a dentry already refered. This is because directory aliases are not allowed. But in a network filesystem this could happen legitimately, if a directory is moved on a remote client. This patch attempts to relax the restriction by trying to first evict the offending alias from the cache. If this fails, it still returns an error (EBUSY). A rarer situation is if an mkdir races with an indenpendent lookup, which finds the newly created directory already moved. In this situation the mkdir should return success, but that would be incorrect, since the dentry cannot be instantiated, so return EBUSY. Previously checking for a directory alias and instantiation of the dentry weren't done atomically in lookup/mkdir, hence two such calls racing with each other could create aliased directories. To prevent this introduce a new per-connection mutex: fuse_conn->inst_mutex, which is taken for instantiations with a directory inode.

2006-10-17[PATCH] fuse: fix hang on SMPMiklos Szeredi3-13/+34
Fuse didn't always call i_size_write() with i_mutex held which caused rare hangs on SMP/32bit. This bug has been present since fuse-2.2, well before being merged into mainline. The simplest solution is to protect i_size_write() with the per-connection spinlock. Using i_mutex for this purpose would require some restructuring of the code and I'm not even sure it's always safe to acquire i_mutex in all places i_size needs to be set. Since most of vmtruncate is already duplicated for other reasons, duplicate the remaining part as well, making all i_size_write() calls internal to fuse. Using i_size_write() was unnecessary in fuse_init_inode(), since this function is only called on a newly created locked inode. Reported by a few people over the years, but special thanks to Dana Henriksen who was persistent enough in helping me debug it.

2006-10-17[PATCH] PROC_NUMBUF is wrongAndrew Morton1-1/+1
Actually, the decimal representation of a 32-bit signed number can take 12 bytes, including the \0. And then some code adds a \n as well, so let's give it 13 bytes. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-10-17[PATCH] null dereference in fs/jbd2/journal.cDave Kleikamp1-1/+2
This is Eric Sesterhenn's jbd patch applied to jbd2. Commit: 41716c7c21b15e7ecf14f0caf1eef3980707fb74 His words: Since commit d1807793e1e7e502e3dc047115e9dbc3b50e4534 we dereference a NULL pointer. Coverity id #1432. We set journal to NULL, and use it directly afterwards.

2006-10-15[PATCH] Fix core files so they make sense to gdb...Petr Vandrovec1-5/+3
It is silly to use non-static variable for writting zeroes to the file. And more seriously, foffset in core dump file dump function was incremented too much, so some parts of core dump were shifted by size of few phdrs and notes down, so although gdb was able to load that file, it did not make lot of sense - in my test case data pages were shifted down by about 900 bytes.

diRead and diWrite are representing the page number as an unsigned int. This causes file system corruption on volumes larger than 16TB. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
