A request in the ring buffer mustn't be read after it has been marked
as consumed. Otherwise it might already have been reused by the
frontend without violating the ring protocol.
To avoid inconsistencies in the backend only work on a private copy
of the request. This will ensure a malicious guest not being able to
bypass consistency checks of the backend by modifying an active

Hypercalls submitted by user space tools via the privcmd driver can
take a long time (potentially many 10s of seconds) if the hypercall
has many sub-operations.
A fully preemptible kernel may deschedule such as task in any upcall
called from a hypercall continuation.
However, in a kernel with voluntary or no preemption, hypercall
continuations in Xen allow event handlers to be run but the task
issuing the hypercall will not be descheduled until the hypercall is
complete and the ioctl returns to user space. These long running
tasks may also trigger the kernel's soft lockup detection.
Add xen_preemptible_hcall_begin() and xen_preemptible_hcall_end() to
bracket hypercalls that may be preempted. Use these in the privcmd
driver.
When returning from an upcall, call xen_maybe_preempt_hcall() which
adds a schedule point if if the current task was within a preemptible
hypercall.
Since _cond_resched() can move the task to a different CPU, clear and
set xen_in_preemptible_hcall around the call.

A new fsync vs power fail test in xfstests indicated that XFS can
have unreliable data consistency when doing extending truncates that
require block zeroing. The blocks beyond EOF get zeroed in memory,
but we never force those changes to disk before we run the
transaction that extends the file size and exposes those blocks to
userspace. This can result in the blocks not being correctly zeroed
after a crash.
Because in-memory behaviour is correct, tools like fsx don't pick up
any coherency problems - it's not until the filesystem is shutdown
or the system crashes after writing the truncate transaction to the
journal but before the zeroed data in the page cache is flushed that
the issue is exposed.
Fix this by also flushing the dirty data in memory region between
the old size and new size when we've found blocks that need zeroing
in the truncate process.

For filesystems without separate project quota inode field in the
superblock we just reuse project quota file for group quotas (and vice

When we reuse the file, quota structures on disk suddenly have wrong
type stored in d_flags though. Nobody really cares about this (although
structure type reported to userspace was wrong as well) except
that after commit 14bf61ffe6 (quota: Switch ->get_dqblk() and

xfs_qm_scall_getquota() started to trigger on xfs/106 test (apparently I

Currently stream destructor in each driver has a problem to be called in
a context in which sound card object is released, because the destructors
call amdtp_stream_pcm_abort() and touch PCM runtime data.
The PCM runtime data is destroyed in application's context with
snd_pcm_close(), on the other hand PCM substream data is destroyed after
sound card object is released, in most case after all of ALSA character
devices are released. When PCM runtime is destroyed and PCM substream is
remained, amdtp_stream_pcm_abort() touches PCM runtime data and causes

Implement arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() for powerpc
Commit 9b01f5bf3 introduced a dependency on "IRQ work self-IPIs" for
full dynamic ticks to be enabled, by expecting architectures to
implement a suitable arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() routine.
Several arches have implemented this routine, including x86 (3010279f)
and arm (09f6edd4), but powerpc was omitted.
This patch implements this routine for powerpc.
The symptom, at boot (on powerpc systems) with "nohz_full=<CPU list>"
is displayed:
NO_HZ: Can't run full dynticks because arch doesn't support irq work self-IPIs
after this patch:
NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: <CPU list>.
Tested against 3.19.
powerpc implements "IRQ work self-IPIs" by setting the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(), which causes a decrementer exception on the next
timebase tick. We then handle the work in __timer_interrupt().

.. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to
the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad.
Big surprise.
But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38%
margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who
can't even follow the most basic directions?
In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%,
but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.
Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so
it could be considered noise.
But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.
This was causing the destination instead of the source to be filled. As
a result, the source was typically all mapped to one zero page, and
hence very cacheable.

I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around
sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from
two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and
from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for
progress in memory allocator.
Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check
sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here:
super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write.
Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb
is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers
are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi
writeback list under wb->list_lock.
This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount:
generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write.
New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore,
callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when
they're done.

Fix up the following scripted S_ISDIR/S_ISREG/S_ISLNK conversions (or lack
thereof) in cachefiles:
(1) Cachefiles mostly wants to use d_can_lookup() rather than d_is_dir() as
it doesn't want to deal with automounts in its cache.
(2) Coccinelle didn't find S_IS* expressions in ASSERT() statements in
cachefiles.
