2011-01-14fs: fix do_last error case when need_reval_dotJ. R. Okajima1-4/+6
When open(2) without O_DIRECTORY opens an existing dir, it should return EISDIR. In do_last(), the variable 'error' is initialized EISDIR, but it is changed by d_revalidate() which returns any positive to represent 'the target dir is valid.' Should we keep and return the initialized 'error' in this case. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

2011-01-14fs: fix dropping of rcu-walk from force_reval_pathNick Piggin1-0/+8
As J. R. Okajima noted, force_reval_path passes in the same dentry to d_revalidate as the one in the nameidata structure (other callers pass in a child), so the locking breaks. This can oops with a chrooted nfs mount, for example. Similarly there can be other problems with revalidating a dentry which is already in nameidata of the path walk.

2011-01-14fs: force_reval_path drop rcu-walk before d_invalidateNick Piggin1-0/+10
d_revalidate can return in rcu-walk mode even when it returns 0. We can't just call any old dcache function on rcu-walk dentry (the dentry is unstable, so even through d_lock can safely be taken, the result may no longer be what we expect -- careful re-checks would be required). So just drop rcu in this case. (I missed this conversion when switching to the rcu-walk convention that Linus suggested) Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

2011-01-13thp: remove PG_buddyAndrea Arcangeli1-6/+8
PG_buddy can be converted to _mapcount == -2. So the PG_compound_lock can be added to page->flags without overflowing (because of the sparse section bits increasing) with CONFIG_X86_PAE=y and CONFIG_X86_PAT=y. This also has to move the memory hotplug code from _mapcount to lru.next to avoid any risk of clashes. We can't use lru.next for PG_buddy removal, but memory hotplug can use lru.next even more easily than the mapcount instead.

2011-01-13oom: allow a non-CAP_SYS_RESOURCE proces to oom_score_adj downMandeep Singh Baines1-1/+3
We'd like to be able to oom_score_adj a process up/down as it enters/leaves the foreground. Currently, it is not possible to oom_adj down without CAP_SYS_RESOURCE. This patch allows a task to decrease its oom_score_adj back to the value that a CAP_SYS_RESOURCE thread set it to or its inherited value at fork. Assuming the thread that has forked it has oom_score_adj of 0, each process could decrease it back from 0 upon activation unless a CAP_SYS_RESOURCE thread elevated it to something higher. Alternative considered: * a setuid binary * a daemon with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE Since you don't wan't all processes to be able to reduce their oom_adj, a setuid or daemon implementation would be complex. The alternatives also have much higher overhead. This patch updated from original patch based on feedback from David Rientjes.

2011-01-13writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writebackJan Kara1-4/+23
When wb_writeback() is called in WB_SYNC_ALL mode, work->nr_to_write is usually set to LONG_MAX. The logic in wb_writeback() then calls __writeback_inodes_sb() with nr_to_write == MAX_WRITEBACK_PAGES and we easily end up with non-positive nr_to_write after the function returns, if the inode has more than MAX_WRITEBACK_PAGES dirty pages at the moment. When nr_to_write is <= 0 wb_writeback() decides we need another round of writeback but this is wrong in some cases! For example when a single large file is continuously dirtied, we would never finish syncing it because each pass would be able to write MAX_WRITEBACK_PAGES and inode dirty timestamp never gets updated (as inode is never completely clean). Thus __writeback_inodes_sb() would write the redirtied inode again and again. Fix the issue by setting nr_to_write to LONG_MAX in WB_SYNC_ALL mode. We do not need nr_to_write in WB_SYNC_ALL mode anyway since write_cache_pages() does livelock avoidance using page tagging in WB_SYNC_ALL mode. This makes wb_writeback() call __writeback_inodes_sb() only once on WB_SYNC_ALL. The latter function won't livelock because it works on - a finite set of files by doing queue_io() once at the beginning - a finite set of pages by PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE page tagging After this patch, program from http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/24/154 is no longer able to stall sync forever.

2011-01-13writeback: stop background/kupdate works from livelocking other worksJan Kara1-0/+10
Background writeback is easily livelockable in a loop in wb_writeback() by a process continuously re-dirtying pages (or continuously appending to a file). This is in fact intended as the target of background writeback is to write dirty pages it can find as long as we are over dirty_background_threshold. But the above behavior gets inconvenient at times because no other work queued in the flusher thread's queue gets processed. In particular, since e.g. sync(1) relies on flusher thread to do all the IO for it, sync(1) can hang forever waiting for flusher thread to do the work. Generally, when a flusher thread has some work queued, someone submitted the work to achieve a goal more specific than what background writeback does. Moreover by working on the specific work, we also reduce amount of dirty pages which is exactly the target of background writeout. So it makes sense to give specific work a priority over a generic page cleaning. Thus we interrupt background writeback if there is some other work to do. We return to the background writeback after completing all the queued work. This may delay the writeback of expired inodes for a while, however the expired inodes will eventually be flushed to disk as long as the other works won't livelock.

2011-01-13writeback: integrated background writeback workJan Kara1-15/+46
Check whether background writeback is needed after finishing each work. When bdi flusher thread finishes doing some work check whether any kind of background writeback needs to be done (either because dirty_background_ratio is exceeded or because we need to start flushing old inodes). If so, just do background write back. This way, bdi_start_background_writeback() just needs to wake up the flusher thread. It will do background writeback as soon as there is no other work. This is a preparatory patch for the next patch which stops background writeback as soon as there is other work to do.

2011-01-13cramfs: generate unique inode number for better inode cache usageStefani Seibold1-41/+69
Generate a unique inode numbers for any entries in the cram file system. For files which did not contain data's (device nodes, fifos and sockets) the offset of the directory entry inside the cramfs plus 1 will be used as inode number. The + 1 for the inode will it make possible to distinguish between a file which contains no data and files which has data, the later one has a inode value where the lower two bits are always 0. It also reimplements the behavior to set the size and the number of block to 0 for special file, which is the right value for empty files, devices, fifos and sockets As a little benefit it will be also more compatible which older mkcramfs, because it will never use the cramfs_inode->offset for creating a inode number for special files.

The problem with generic_file_llseek is that it only allows seeks up to inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes, which is 2GB-1 on procfs, where the memory file offset values in the /proc/kcore PT_LOAD segments may exceed or start beyond that offset value.

This cleans up a few bits in binfmt_elf.c and binfmts.h: - the hasvdso field in struct linux_binfmt is unused, so remove it and the only initialization of it - the elf_map CPP symbol is not defined anywhere in the kernel, so remove an unnecessary #ifndef elf_map - reduce excessive indentation in elf_format's initializer - add missing spaces, remove extraneous spaces No functional changes, but tested on x86 (32 and 64 bit), powerpc (32 and 64 bit), sparc64, arm, and alpha.

2011-01-13fs/select.c: fix information leak to userspaceVasiliy Kulikov1-0/+2
On some architectures __kernel_suseconds_t is int. On these archs struct timeval has padding bytes at the end. This struct is copied to userspace with these padding bytes uninitialized. This leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. This bug was added with v2.6.27-rc5-286-gb773ad4.

2011-01-12Ocfs2: handle hole punching via fallocate properlyJosef Bacik1-2/+6
This patch just makes ocfs2 use its UNRESERVP ioctl when we get the hole punch flag in fallocate. I didn't test it, but it seems simple enough.

2011-01-12XFS: handle hole punching via fallocate properlyJosef Bacik1-2/+5
This patch simply allows XFS to handle the hole punching flag in fallocate properly. I've tested this with a little program that does a bunch of random hole punching with FL_KEEP_SIZE and without it to make sure it does the right thing.

2011-01-12fs: add hole punching to fallocateJosef Bacik1-1/+6
Hole punching has already been implemented by XFS and OCFS2, and has the potential to be implemented on both BTRFS and EXT4 so we need a generic way to get to this feature. The simplest way in my mind is to add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE to fallocate() since it already looks like the normal fallocate() operation. I've tested this patch with XFS and BTRFS to make sure XFS did what it's supposed to do and that BTRFS failed like it was supposed to.

2011-01-12vfs: pass struct file to do_truncate on O_TRUNC opens (try #2)Jeff Layton1-3/+4
When a file is opened with O_TRUNC, the truncate processing is handled by handle_truncate(). This function however doesn't receive any info about the newly instantiated filp, and therefore can't pass that info along so that the setattr can use it. This makes NFSv4 misbehave. The client does an open and gets a valid stateid, and then doesn't use that stateid on the subsequent truncate. It uses the zero-stateid instead. Most servers ignore this fact and just do the truncate anyway, but some don't like it (notably, RHEL4). It seems more correct that since we have a fully instantiated file at the time that handle_truncate is called, that we pass that along so that the truncate operation can properly use it.
