Josef Bacik 216553c4b7 ext4: fix wrong gfp type under transaction
This fixes the allocations with GFP_KERNEL while under a transaction problems
in ext4.  This patch is the same as its ext3 counterpart, just switches these
to GFP_NOFS.

Jan Kara 2887df139c ext4: Fix hang on umount with quotas when journal is aborted
Call dquot_drop() from ext4_dquot_drop() even if we fail to start a
transaction. Otherwise we never get to dropping references to quota structures
from the inode and umount will hang indefinitely.  Thanks to Payphone LIOU for
spotting the problem.

Duane Griffin 8a9362eb40 jbd2: replace potentially false assertion with if block
If an error occurs during jbd2 cache initialisation it is possible for the
journal_head_cache to be NULL when jbd2_journal_destroy_journal_head_cache is
called.  Replace the J_ASSERT with an if block to handle the situation
correctly.

Note that even with this fix things will break badly if jbd2 is statically
compiled in and cache initialisation fails.

Aneesh Kumar K.V 267e4db9ac ext4: Fix race between migration and mmap write
Fail migrate if we allocated new blocks via mmap write.

If we write to holes in the file via mmap, we end up allocating
new blocks. This block allocation happens without taking inode->i_mutex.
Since migrate is protected by i_mutex and migrate expects that no
new blocks get allocated during migrate, fail migrate if new blocks
get allocated.

We can't take inode->i_mutex in the mmap write path because that
would result in a locking order violation between i_mutex and mmap_sem.
Also adding a separate rw_sempahore for protection is really high overhead
for a rare operation such as migrate.

This patch handles possible ENOSPC errors when writing to an
uninitialized extent in case the filesystem is full.

A write to a prealloc area causes the split of an unititalized extent
into initialized and uninitialized extents.  If we don't have
space to add new extent information, instead of returning error,
convert the existing uninitialized extent to initialized one.  We
need to zero out the blocks corresponding to the entire extent to
prevent uninitialized data reaching userspace.

Hisashi Hifumi 53c550e975 ext4: fdatasync should skip metadata writeout when overwriting
Currently fdatasync is identical to fsync in ext3.

I think fdatasync should skip journal flush in data=ordered and
data=writeback mode when it overwrites to already-instantiated blocks on
HDD.  When I_DIRTY_DATASYNC flag is not set, fdatasync should skip journal
writeout because this indicates only atime or/and mtime updates.

Following patch is the same approach of ext2's fsync code(ext2_sync_file).

I did a performance test using the sysbench.

#sysbench --num-threads=128 --max-requests=50000 --test=fileio --file-total-size=128G
--file-test-mode=rndwr --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run

Josef Bacik 1dfc3220d9 jbd2: fix possible journal overflow issues
There are several cases where the running transaction can get buffers
added to its BJ_Metadata list which it never dirtied, which makes its
t_nr_buffers counter end up larger than its t_outstanding_credits
counter.

This will cause issues when starting new transactions as while we are
logging buffers we decrement t_outstanding_buffers, so when
t_outstanding_buffers goes negative, we will report that we need less
space in the journal than we actually need, so transactions will be
started even though there may not be enough room for them.  In the worst
case scenario (which admittedly is almost impossible to reproduce) this
will result in the journal running out of space.

The fix is to only refile buffers from the committing transaction to the
running transactions BJ_Modified list when b_modified is set on that
journal, which is the only way to be sure if the running transaction has
modified that buffer.

This patch also fixes an accounting error in journal_forget, it is
possible that we can call journal_forget on a buffer without having
modified it, only gotten write access to it, so instead of freeing a
credit, we only do so if the buffer was modified.  The assert will help
catch if this problem occurs.  Without these two patches I could hit
this assert within minutes of running postmark, with them this issue no
longer arises.

Josef Bacik 9fc7c63a1d jbd2: fix the way the b_modified flag is cleared
Currently at the start of a journal commit we loop through all of the buffers
on the committing transaction and clear the b_modified flag (the flag that is
set when a transaction modifies the buffer) under the j_list_lock.

The problem is that everywhere else this flag is modified only under the jbd2
lock buffer flag, so it will race with a running transaction who could
potentially set it, and have it unset by the committing transaction.

This is also a big waste, you can have several thousands of buffers that you
are clearing the modified flag on when you may not need to.  This patch
removes this code and instead clears the b_modified flag upon entering
do_get_write_access/journal_get_create_access, so if that transaction does
indeed use the buffer then it will be accounted for properly, and if it does
not then we know we didn't use it.

That will be important for the next patch in this series.  Tested thoroughly
by myself using postmark/iozone/bonnie++.

Pavel Emelyanov d7321cd624 sysctl: add the ->permissions callback on the ctl_table_root
When reading from/writing to some table, a root, which this table came from,
may affect this table's permissions, depending on who is working with the
table.

The core hunk is at the bottom of this patch.  All the rest is just pushing
the ctl_table_root argument up to the sysctl_perm() function.

This will be mostly (only?) used in the net sysctls.

Pavel Emelyanov 7708bfb1c8 sysctl: merge equal proc_sys_read and proc_sys_write
Many (most of) sysctls do not have a per-container sense.  E.g.
kernel.print_fatal_signals, vm.panic_on_oom, net.core.netdev_budget and so on
and so forth.  Besides, tuning then from inside a container is not even
secure.  On the other hand, hiding them completely from the container's tasks
sometimes causes user-space to stop working.

When developing net sysctl, the common practice was to duplicate a table and
drop the write bits in table->mode, but this approach was not very elegant,
lead to excessive memory consumption and was not suitable in general.

Here's the alternative solution.  To facilitate the per-container sysctls
ctl_table_root-s were introduced.  Each root contains a list of
ctl_table_header-s that are visible to different namespaces.  The idea of this
set is to add the permissions() callback on the ctl_table_root to allow ctl
root limit permissions to the same ctl_table-s.

The main user of this functionality is the net-namespaces code, but later this
will (should) be used by more and more namespaces, containers and control
groups.

Actually, this idea's core is in a single hunk in the third patch.  First two
patches are cleanups for sysctl code, while the third one mostly extends the
arguments set of some sysctl functions.

This patch:

These ->read and ->write callbacks act in a very similar way, so merge these
paths to reduce the number of places to patch later and shrink the .text size
(a bit).
