Trond Myklebust 74361cb682 [PATCH] fcntl(F_SETSIG) fix
fcntl(F_SETSIG) no longer works on leases because
lease_release_private_callback() gets called as the lease is copied in
order to initialise it.

The problem is that lease_alloc() performs an unnecessary initialisation,
which sets the lease_manager_ops.  Avoid the problem by allocating the
target lease structure using locks_alloc_lock().

I ran into the same issue today, but when listing a directory with
invalid/corrupt entries:

udf_lookup
        udf_iget
                get_new_inode_fast
                        alloc_inode
                                udf_alloc_inode
                __udf_read_inode
                        fails for any reason
                iput (on error)
                        ...

The following patch to udf_alloc_inode() should take care of both (and
other similar) cases, but I've only tested it with udf_lookup().

Nathan Scott 0e1edbd999 [XFS] Fix xfs_free_extent related NULL pointer dereference.
We recently fixed an out-of-space deadlock in XFS, and part of that fix
involved the addition of the XFS_ALLOC_FLAG_FREEING flag to some of the
space allocator calls to indicate they're freeing space, not allocating
it. There was a missed xfs_alloc_fix_freelist condition test that did not
correctly test "flags". The same test would also test an uninitialised
structure field (args->userdata) and depending on its value either would
or would not return early with a critical buffer pointer set to NULL.

This fixes that up, adds asserts to several places to catch future botches
of this nature, and skips sections of xfs_alloc_fix_freelist that are
irrelevent for the space-freeing case.

Eric Sandeen 225add6196 [PATCH] udf: initialize parts of inode earlier in create
I saw an oops down this path when trying to create a new file on a UDF
filesystem which was internally marked as readonly, but mounted rw:

udf_create
        udf_new_inode
                new_inode
                        alloc_inode
                        	udf_alloc_inode
                udf_new_block
                        returns EIO due to readonlyness
                iput (on error)
                        udf_put_inode
                                udf_discard_prealloc
                                        udf_next_aext
                                                udf_current_aext
                                                        udf_get_fileshortad
                                                                OOPS

the udf_discard_prealloc() path was examining uninitialized fields of the
udf inode.

udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard
path if no extents are preallocated:

        if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB ||
                inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode))
        {
                return;
        }

so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode,
we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match
the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.

Chris Mason b4c76fa721 [PATCH] reiserfs_write_full_page() should not get_block past eof
reiserfs_write_full_page does zero bytes in the file past eof, but it may
call get_block on those buffers as well.  On machines where the page size
is larger than the blocksize, this can result in mmaped files incorrectly
growing up to a block boundary during writepage.

The fix is to avoid calling get_block for any blocks that are entirely past
eof

Diego Calleja 94f563c426 [PATCH] Fix BeFS slab corruption
In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported:

"The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the
end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory
corruption.  This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a
multiple of 4 bytes in length.  [...]

Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I
believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable
for me.  (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has
been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).)

Steps to reproduce:
Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g.,
"1", "22", "333", "4444", ...  Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find""

This patch implements the suggested fix. Credits to Jens Kilian for
debugging the problem and finding the right fix.

this patch fixes such issue:

`ufs_get_locked_page' takes page from cache
after that `vmtruncate' takes page and deletes it from cache
`ufs_get_locked_page' locks page, and reports about EIO error.

Also because of find_lock_page always return valid page or NULL, we have no
need to check it if page not NULL.

Miklos Szeredi 0a0898cf41 [PATCH] fuse: use jiffies_64
It is entirely possible (though rare) that jiffies half-wraps around, while a
dentry/inode remains in the cache.  This could mean that the dentry/inode is
not invalidated for another half wraparound-time.

To get around this problem, use 64-bit jiffies.  The only problem with this is
that dentry->d_time is 32 bits on 32-bit archs.  So use d_fsdata as the high
32 bits.  This is an ugly hack, but far simpler, than having to allocate
private data just for this purpose.

Since 64-bit jiffies can be assumed never to wrap around, simple comparison
can be used, and a zero time value can represent "invalid".

ufs_symlink, in one of its error paths, calls unlock_kernel without ever

Arjan van de Ven 5b6509aa8c [PATCH] inotify: fix deadlock found by lockdep
This is a real deadlock, a nice complex one:
(warning: long explanation follows so that Andrew can have a complete
patch description)

it's an ABCDA deadlock:

A iprune_mutex
B inode->inotify_mutex
C ih->mutex
D dev->ev_mutex

The AB relationship comes straight from invalidate_inodes()

int invalidate_inodes(struct super_block * sb)
{
        int busy;
        LIST_HEAD(throw_away);

        mutex_lock(&iprune_mutex);
        spin_lock(&inode_lock);
        inotify_unmount_inodes(&sb->s_inodes);

where inotify_umount_inodes() takes the
                mutex_lock(&inode->inotify_mutex);

The BC relationship comes directly from inotify_find_update_watch():
s32 inotify_find_update_watch(struct inotify_handle *ih, struct inode *inode,
                              u32 mask)
{
   ...
        mutex_lock(&inode->inotify_mutex);
        mutex_lock(&ih->mutex);

The CD relationship comes from inotify_rm_wd:
inotify_rm_wd does
        mutex_lock(&inode->inotify_mutex);
        mutex_lock(&ih->mutex)
and then calls inotify_remove_watch_locked() which calls
notify_dev_queue_event() which does
	        mutex_lock(&dev->ev_mutex);

(this strictly is a BCD relationship)

The DA relationship comes from the most interesting part:

  [<ffffffff8022d9f2>] shrink_icache_memory+0x42/0x270
  [<ffffffff80240dc4>] shrink_slab+0x11d/0x1c9
  [<ffffffff802b5104>] try_to_free_pages+0x187/0x244
  [<ffffffff8020efed>] __alloc_pages+0x1cd/0x2e0
  [<ffffffff8025e1f8>] cache_alloc_refill+0x3f8/0x821
  [<ffffffff8020a5e5>] kmem_cache_alloc+0x85/0xcb
  [<ffffffff802db027>] kernel_event+0x2e/0x122
  [<ffffffff8021d61c>] inotify_dev_queue_event+0xcc/0x140

inotify_dev_queue_event schedules a kernel_event which does a
kmem_cache_alloc( , GFP_KERNEL) which may try to shrink slabs, including
the inode cache .. which then takes iprune_mutex.

And voila, there is an AB, a BC, a CD relationship (even a direct BCD),
and also now a DA relationship -> a circular type AB-BA deadlock but
involving 4 locks.

The solution is simple: kernel_event() is NOT allowed to use GFP_KERNEL,
but must use GFP_NOFS to not cause recursion into the VFS.

NeilBrown d1bbf14f37 [PATCH] knfsd: Fix stale file handle problem with subtree_checking.
A recent commit (7fc90ec93a) moved the
call to nfsd_setuser out of the 'find a dentry for a filehandle' branch
of fh_verify so that it would always be called.

This had the unfortunately side-effect of moving *after* the call to
decode_fh, so the prober fsuid was not set when nfsd_acceptable was called,
the 'permission' check did the wrong thing.

This patch moves the nfsd_setuser call back where it was, and add as call
in the other branch of the if.

Neil Brown 2ccb48ebb4 [PATCH] ext3: avoid triggering ext3_error on bad NFS file handle
The inode number out of an NFS file handle gets passed eventually to
ext3_get_inode_block() without any checking.  If ext3_get_inode_block()
allows it to trigger an error, then bad filehandles can have unpleasant
effect - ext3_error() will usually cause a forced read-only remount, or a
panic if `errors=panic' was used.

So remove the call to ext3_error there and put a matching check in
ext3/namei.c where inode numbers are read off storage.

And 1 object leaks in

*size-64
*size-128

It is the fix for the first one.  filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c.

Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables.

I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying
another leaks.  Some debugging structs?

David Howells 21ff821630 [PATCH] NOMMU: Fix execution off of ramfs with mmap()
Fix execution through the FDPIC binfmt of programs stored on ramfs by
preventing the ramfs mmap() returning successfully on a private mapping of
a ramfs file.  This causes NOMMU mmap to make a copy of the mapped portion
of the file and map that instead.

This could be improved by granting direct mapping access to read-only
private mappings for which the data is stored on a contiguous run of pages.
 However, this is only likely to be the case if the file was extended with
truncate before being written.

ramfs is left to map the file directly for shared mappings so that SYSV IPC
and POSIX shared memory both still work.

Zhang, Yanmin b6174df5ee [PATCH] mmap zero-length hugetlb file with PROT_NONE to protect a hugetlb virtual area
Sometimes, applications need below call to be successful although
"/mnt/hugepages/file1" doesn't exist.

fd = open("/mnt/hugepages/file1", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0755);
*addr = mmap(NULL, 0x1024*1024*256, PROT_NONE, 0, fd, 0);

As for regular pages (or files), above call does work, but as for huge
pages, above call would fail because hugetlbfs_file_mmap would fail if
(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE) && len > inode->i_size).

This capability on huge page is useful on ia64 when the process wants to
protect one area on region 4, so other threads couldn't read/write this
area.  A famous JVM (Java Virtual Machine) implementation on IA64 needs the
capability.

Peter Oberparleiter 25e206b54b [PATCH] partitions: let partitions inherit policy from disk
Change the partition code in fs/partitions/check.c to initialize a newly
detected partition's policy field with that of the containing block device
(see patch below).

My reasoning is that function set_disk_ro() in block/genhd.c modifies the
policy field (read-only indicator) of a disk and all contained partitions.
When a partition is detected after the call to set_disk_ro(), the policy
field of this partition will currently not inherit the disk's policy field.
 This behavior poses a problem in cases where a block device can be
'logically de- and reactivated' like e.g.  the s390 DASD driver because
partition detection may run after the policy field has been modified.

Hisashi Hifumi 73ce5934e2 [PATCH] reiserfs: fix journaling issue regarding fsync()
When write() extends a file(i_size is increased) and fsync() is called,
change of inode must be written to journaling area through fsync().
But,currently the i_trans_id is not correctly updated when i_size is
increased.  So fsync() does not kick the journal writer.

Reiserfs_file_write() already updates the transaction when blocks are
allocated, but the case when i_size increases and new blocks are not added
is not correctly treated.

Following patch fix this bug.

Jens Axboe aadd06e5c5 [PATCH] splice: fix problems with sys_tee()
Several issues noticed/fixed:

- We cannot reliably block in link_pipe() while holding both input and output
  mutexes. So do preparatory checks before locking down both mutexes and doing
  the link.

- The ipipe->nrbufs vs i check was bad, because we could have dropped the
  ipipe lock in-between. This causes us to potentially look at unknown
  buffers if we were racing with someone else reading this pipe.

Ingo Molnar 663d440eaa [PATCH] lockdep: annotate blkdev nesting
Teach special (recursive) locking code to the lock validator.

Effects on non-lockdep kernels:

- the introduction of the following function variants:

  extern struct block_device *open_partition_by_devnum(dev_t, unsigned);

  extern int blkdev_put_partition(struct block_device *);

  static int
  blkdev_get_whole(struct block_device *bdev, mode_t mode, unsigned flags);

 which on non-lockdep are the same as open_by_devnum(), blkdev_put()
 and blkdev_get().

- a subclass parameter to do_open(). [unused on non-lockdep]

- a subclass parameter to __blkdev_put(), which is a new internal
  function for the main blkdev_put*() functions. [parameter unused
  on non-lockdep kernels, except for two sanity check WARN_ON()s]

these functions carry no semantical difference - they only express
object dependencies towards the lockdep subsystem.

Arjan van de Ven 5c81a4197d [PATCH] lockdep: annotate the quota code
The quota code plays interesting games with the lock ordering; to quote Jan:

| i_mutex of inode containing quota file is acquired after all other
| quota locks. i_mutex of all other inodes is acquired before quota
| locks. Quota code makes sure (by resetting inode operations and
| setting special flag on inode) that noone tries to enter quota code
| while holding i_mutex on a quota file...

The good news is that all of this special case i_mutex grabbing happens in the
(per filesystem) low level quota write function.  For this special case we
need a new I_MUTEX_* nesting level, since this just entirely outside any of
the regular VFS locking rules for i_mutex.  I trust Jan on his blue eyes that
this is not ever going to deadlock; and based on that the patch below is what
it takes to inform lockdep of these very interesting new locking rules.

The new locking rule for the I_MUTEX_QUOTA nesting level is that this is the
deepest possible level of nesting for i_mutex, and that this only should be
used in quota write (and possibly read) function of filesystems.  This makes
the lock ordering of the I_MUTEX_* levels:

I_MUTEX_PARENT -> I_MUTEX_CHILD -> I_MUTEX_NORMAL -> I_MUTEX_QUOTA

Chuck Ebbert ce51059be5 [PATCH] binfmt_elf: fix checks for bad address
Fix check for bad address; use macro instead of open-coding two checks.

Taken from RHEL4 kernel update.

From: Ernie Petrides <petrides@redhat.com>

  For background, the BAD_ADDR() macro should return TRUE if the address is
  TASK_SIZE, because that's the lowest address that is *not* valid for
  user-space mappings.  The macro was correct in binfmt_aout.c but was wrong
  for the "equal to" case in binfmt_elf.c.  There were two in-line validations
  of user-space addresses in binfmt_elf.c, which have been appropriately
  converted to use the corrected BAD_ADDR() macro in the patch you posted
  yesterday.  Note that the size checks against TASK_SIZE are okay as coded.

  The additional changes that I propose are below.  These are in the error
  paths for bad ELF entry addresses once load_elf_binary() has already
  committed to exec'ing the new image (following the tearing down of the
  task's original address space).

  The 1st hunk deals with the interp-side of the outer "if".  There were two
  problems here.  The printk() should be removed because this path can be
  triggered at will by a bogus interpreter image created and used by a
  malicious user.  Further, the error code should not be ENOEXEC, because that
  causes the loop in search_binary_handler() to continue trying other exec
  handlers (twice, in fact).  But it's too late for this to work correctly,
  because the user address space has already been torn down, and an exec()
  failure cannot be returned to the user code because the code no longer
  exists.  The only recovery is to force a SIGSEGV, but it's best to terminate
  the search loop immediately.  I somewhat arbitrarily chose EINVAL as a
  fallback error code, but any error returned by load_elf_interp() will
  override that (but this value will never be seen by user-space).

  The 2nd hunk deals with the non-interp-side of the outer "if".  There were
  two problems here as well.  The SIGSEGV needs to be forced, because a prior
  sigaction() syscall might have set the associated disposition to SIG_IGN.
  And the ENOEXEC should be changed to EINVAL as described above.

This patch fixes buggy behaviour of UFS
in such kind of scenario:

ftruncate(, 0)

Such a scenario causes ufs_panic and remount read-only.  This happen
because of according to specification UFS should always allocate block for
last byte, and many parts of our implementation rely on this, but
`ufs_truncate' doesn't care about this.

To make possible return error code and to know about old size, this patch
removes `truncate' from ufs inode_operations and uses `setattr' method to
call ufs_truncate.

J. Bruce Fields 7fc90ec93a [PATCH] knfsd: nfsd: call nfsd_setuser() on fh_compose(), fix nfsd4 permissions problem
In the typical v2/v3 case the only new filehandles used as arguments to
operations are filehandles taken directly off the wire, which don't get
dentries until fh_verify() is called.

But in v4 the filehandles that are arguments to operations were often created
by previous operations (putrootfh, lookup, etc.) using fh_compose, which sets
the dentry in the filehandle without calling nfsd_setuser().

This also means that, for example, if filesystem B is mounted on filesystem A,
and filesystem A is exported without root-squashing, then a client can bypass
the rootsquashing on B using a compound that starts at a filehandle in A,
crosses into B using lookups, and then does stuff in B.

during that time.

However when crossing a mountpoint, the filehandle used for one filesystem
doesn't provide any useful information on what sort of filehandle should be
used on the other, and can provide misleading information.  So if the
reference filehandle is on a different filesystem to the one being generated,
ignore it.

NeilBrown 4c9608b2f2 [PATCH] knfsd: remove noise about filehandle being uptodate
There is a perfectly valid situation where fh_update gets called on an already
uptodate filehandle - in nfsd_create_v3 where a CREATE_UNCHECKED finds an
existing file and wants to just set the size.

We could possible optimise out the call in that case, but the only harm
involved is that fh_update prints a warning, so it is easier to remove the
warning.

Add a new security hook definition for the sys_ioprio_get operation.  At
present, the SELinux hook function implementation for this hook is
identical to the getscheduler implementation but a separate hook is
introduced to allow this check to be specialized in the future if
necessary.

This patch also creates a helper function get_task_ioprio which handles the
access check in addition to retrieving the ioprio value for the task.

Christoph Lameter f8891e5e1f [PATCH] Light weight event counters
The remaining counters in page_state after the zoned VM counter patches
have been applied are all just for show in /proc/vmstat.  They have no
essential function for the VM.

We use a simple increment of per cpu variables.  In order to avoid the most
severe races we disable preempt.  Preempt does not prevent the race between
an increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics
counter.  However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one
increment or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that
the vm event counters have to be accurate.

In the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each
counter.  For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a
single instruction.  This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64.
 And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for
both architectures in most cases.

The patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a
building of linux kernels without these counters.

The implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully
results in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted
(i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction
concurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done).

Benefits:
- VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction
  on i386 and x86_64.
- No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case.
  Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock.
- Handling is similar to zoned VM counters.
- Simple and easily extendable.
- Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.

Christoph Lameter d2c5e30c9a [PATCH] zoned vm counters: conversion of nr_bounce to per zone counter
Conversion of nr_bounce to a per zone counter

nr_bounce is only used for proc output.  So it could be left as an event
counter.  However, the event counters may not be accurate and nr_bounce is
categorizing types of pages in a zone.  So we really need this to also be a
per zone counter.

Conversion of nr_unstable to a per zone counter

We need to do some special modifications to the nfs code since there are
multiple cases of disposition and we need to have a page ref for proper
accounting.

This converts the last critical page state of the VM and therefore we need to
remove several functions that were depending on GET_PAGE_STATE_LAST in order
to make the kernel compile again.  We are only left with event type counters
in page state.

we summed up the page counts from multiple zones.  Someone more familiar with
NFS should probably review what I have done.

Christoph Lameter f3dbd34460 [PATCH] zoned vm counters: split NR_ANON_PAGES off from NR_FILE_MAPPED
The current NR_FILE_MAPPED is used by zone reclaim and the dirty load
calculation as the number of mapped pagecache pages.  However, that is not
true.  NR_FILE_MAPPED includes the mapped anonymous pages.  This patch
separates those and therefore allows an accurate tracking of the anonymous
pages per zone.

It then becomes possible to determine the number of unmapped pages per zone
and we can avoid scanning for unmapped pages if there are none.

Also it may now be possible to determine the mapped/unmapped ratio in
get_dirty_limit.  Isnt the number of anonymous pages irrelevant in that
calculation?

Note that this will change the meaning of the number of mapped pages reported
in /proc/vmstat /proc/meminfo and in the per node statistics.  This may affect
user space tools that monitor these counters!  NR_FILE_MAPPED works like
NR_FILE_DIRTY.  It is only valid for pagecache pages.

Christoph Lameter 347ce434d5 [PATCH] zoned vm counters: conversion of nr_pagecache to per zone counter
Currently a single atomic variable is used to establish the size of the page
cache in the whole machine.  The zoned VM counters have the same method of
implementation as the nr_pagecache code but also allow the determination of
the pagecache size per zone.

Remove the special implementation for nr_pagecache and make it a zoned counter
named NR_FILE_PAGES.

Updates of the page cache counters are always performed with interrupts off.
We can therefore use the __ variant here.

Christoph Lameter 65ba55f500 [PATCH] zoned vm counters: convert nr_mapped to per zone counter
nr_mapped is important because it allows a determination of how many pages of
a zone are not mapped, which would allow a more efficient means of determining
when we need to reclaim memory in a zone.

We take the nr_mapped field out of the page state structure and define a new
per zone counter named NR_FILE_MAPPED (the anonymous pages will be split off
from NR_MAPPED in the next patch).

We replace the use of nr_mapped in various kernel locations.  This avoids the
looping over all processors in try_to_free_pages(), writeback, reclaim (swap +
zone reclaim).
