Rather than using the parent directory's allocation context, this
patch allocated the new inode earlier in the process and then uses
it to contain all the information required. As a result, we can now
use the new inode's own allocation context to allocate it rather
than having to use the parent directory's context. This give us a
lot more flexibility in where the inode is placed on disk.

This patch uses information gathered by the recent glock statistics
patch in order to derrive a boolean verdict on the congestion
status of a resource group. This is then used when making decisions
on which resource group to choose during block allocation.
The aim is to avoid resource groups which are heavily contended
by other nodes, while still ensuring locality of access wherever
possible.
Once a reservation has been made in a particular resource group
we continue to use that resource group until a new reservation is
required. This should help to ensure that we do not change resource
groups too often.

This patch is a rewrite of function gfs2_rbm_from_block. Rather than
looping to find the right bitmap, the code now does a few simple
math calculations.
I compared the performance of both algorithms side by side and the new
algorithm is noticeably faster. Sample instrumentation output from a
"fast" machine:
5 million calls: millisec spent: Orig: 166 New: 113
5 million calls: millisec spent: Orig: 189 New: 114
In addition, I ran postmark (on a somewhat slowr CPU) before the after
the new algorithm was put in place and postmark showed a decent
improvement:

GFS2: Require user to provide argument for FITRIM
GFS2: Clean up some unused assignments
GFS2: Fix possible null pointer deref in gfs2_rs_alloc
GFS2: Fix an unchecked error from gfs2_rs_alloc
In gfs2_trans_add_bh(), gfs2 was testing if a there was a bd attached to the
buffer without having the gfs2_log_lock held. It was then assuming it would
stay attached for the rest of the function. However, without either the log
lock being held of the buffer locked, __gfs2_ail_flush() could detach bd at any
time. This patch moves the locking before the test. If there isn't a bd
already attached, gfs2 can safely allocate one and attach it before locking.
There is no way that the newly allocated bd could be on the ail list,
and thus no way for __gfs2_ail_flush() to detach it.

file_accessed() was being called by gfs2_mmap() with a shared glock. If it
needed to update the atime, it was crashing because it dirtied the inode in
gfs2_dirty_inode() without holding an exclusive lock. gfs2_dirty_inode()
checked if the caller was already holding a glock, but it didn't make sure that
the glock was in the exclusive state. Now, instead of calling file_accessed()
while holding the shared lock in gfs2_mmap(), file_accessed() is called after
grabbing and releasing the glock to update the inode. If file_accessed() needs
to update the atime, it will grab an exclusive lock in gfs2_dirty_inode().
gfs2_dirty_inode() now also checks to make sure that if the calling process has
already locked the glock, it has an exclusive lock.

Currently implementation in gfs2 uses FITRIM arguments as it were in

(fstrim_range.start, fstrim_range.len and fstrim_range.minlen) are
actually in bytes.
Moreover, check for start argument beyond the end of file system, len
argument being smaller than file system block and minlen argument being

Use nfs_sb_deactive_async instead of nfs_sb_deactive when in a workqueue

in a workqueue kworker context, trying to kill all RPC tasks associated with
the client, while one or more of these tasks have already been assigned to the
same kworker (and will never run rpc_exit_task).
This approach is needed because RPC tasks that have already been assigned

nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is

The DNS resolver's use of the sunrpc cache involves a 'ttl' number
(relative) rather that a timeout (absolute). This confused me when
I wrote
commit c5b29f885a
"sunrpc: use seconds since boot in expiry cache"
and I managed to break it. The effect is that any TTL is interpreted
as 0, and nothing useful gets into the cache.
This patch removes the use of get_expiry() - which really expects an
expiry time - and uses get_uint() instead, treating the int correctly
as a ttl.
This fixes a regression that has been present since 2.6.37, causing
certain NFS accesses in certain environments to incorrectly fail.

Expire client

The server will return NFS4ERR_BADSESSION, prompting the client to
schedule recovery. However, the client will continue placing lock

simplest solution is to wait for session recovery to run before retrying

commit 119c0d4460 changed
ext4_new_inode() such that the inode bitmap was being modified
outside a transaction, which could lead to corruption, and was
discovered when journal_checksum found a bad checksum in the
journal during log replay.
Nix ran into this when using the journal_async_commit mount
option, which enables journal checksumming. The ensuing
journal replay failures due to the bad checksums led to
filesystem corruption reported as the now infamous
"Apparent serious progressive ext4 data corruption bug"
[ Changed by tytso to only call ext4_journal_get_write_access() only
when we're fairly certain that we're going to allocate the inode. ]
I've tested this by mounting with journal_checksum and
running fsstress then dropping power; I've also tested by
hacking DM to create snapshots w/o first quiescing, which
allows me to test journal replay repeatedly w/o actually
power-cycling the box. Without the patch I hit a journal
checksum error every time. With this fix it survives
many iterations.

In commit 800179c9b8 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.
However, it does turn out to break some applications. It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.
In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see
http://www.dwd.de/AFD/
along with some legacy scripts.
Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks
to re-enable the link protections.
Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.

The compat ioctl for VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE was missing an error check
while converting ioctl arguments. This could lead to leaking kernel
stack contents into userspace.

We BUG if we fail to commit the transaction when creating a snapshot, which
is just obnoxious. Remove the BUG_ON(). Thanks,

After cloning root's node, we forgot to dec the src's ref
which can lead to a memory leak.

On a really full file system I was getting ENOSPC back from
btrfs_update_inode when trying to update the parent inode when creating a
snapshot. Just use the fallback method so we can update the inode and not
have to worry about having a delayed ref. Thanks,

This patch also requires a change in the user-space part of "receive".
We need to use "lchown" instead of "chown". We will do this in the
following patch.

if (S_ISREG(sctx->cur_inode_mode)) {
Steps to reproduce:
# mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 <disk1> <disk2>
# btrfstune -S 1 <disk1>
# mount <disk1> <mnt>
# btrfs device add <disk3> <disk4> <mnt>
# mount -o remount,rw <mnt>
# dd if=/dev/zero of=<mnt>/tmpfile bs=1M count=1
Deadlock happened.
It is because of the nested chunk allocation. When we wrote the data
into the filesystem, we would allocate the data chunk because there was
no data chunk in the filesystem. At the end of the data chunk allocation,
we should insert the metadata of the data chunk into the extent tree, but
there was no raid1 chunk, so we tried to lock the chunk allocation mutex to
allocate the new chunk, but we had held the mutex, the deadlock happened.
By rights, we would allocate the raid1 chunk when we added the second device
because the profile of the seed filesystem is raid1 and we had two devices.
But we didn't do that in fact. It is because the last step of the first device
insertion didn't commit the transaction. So when we added the second device,
we didn't cow the tree, and just inserted the relative metadata into the leaves
which were generated by the first device insertion, and its profile was dup.
So, I fix this problem by commiting the transaction at the end of the first
device insertion.

Currently if len argument in btrfs_ioctl_fitrim() is smaller than
one FSB we will continue and finally return 0 bytes discarded.
However if the length to discard is smaller then file system block
we should really return EINVAL.

gcc says "warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always
true" because i is an unsigned long. And gcc is right this time.

To see the problem, create many hardlinks to the same file (120 should do it),
then look up paths by inode with:
ls -i
btrfs inspect inode-resolve -v $ino /mnt/btrfs
I noticed the memory layout of the fspath->val data had some irregularities
(some unnecessary gaps that stop appearing about halfway),
so I'm not sure there aren't any bugs left in it.
The warning check for duplicate sysfs entries can cause a buffer overflow
when printing the warning, as strcat() doesn't check buffer sizes.
Use strlcat() instead.
Since strlcat() doesn't return a pointer to the passed buffer, unlike
strcat(), I had to convert the nested concatenation in sysfs_add_one() to
an admittedly more obscure comma operator construct, to avoid emitting code
for the concatenation if CONFIG_BUG is disabled.
