struct kern_ipc_perm.deleted is meant to be used as a boolean toggle, and
the changes introduced by this patch are just to make the case explicit.

After the locking semantics for the SysV IPC API got improved, a couple
of IPC_RMID race windows were opened because we ended up dropping the
'kern_ipc_perm.deleted' check performed way down in ipc_lock(). The
spotted races got sorted out by re-introducing the old test within the
racy critical sections.
This patch introduces ipc_valid_object() to consolidate the way we cope
with IPC_RMID races by using the same abstraction across the API
implementation.

When trying to understand semop code, I found a small mistake in the check
for semadj (undo) value overflow. The new undo value is not stored
immediately and next potential checks are done against the old value.
The failing scenario is not much practical. One semop call has to do more
operations on the same semaphore. Also semval and semadj must have
different values, so there has to be some operations without SEM_UNDO
flag. For example:
struct sembuf depositor_op[1];
struct sembuf collector_op[2];
depositor_op[0].sem_num = 0;
depositor_op[0].sem_op = 20000;
depositor_op[0].sem_flg = 0;
collector_op[0].sem_num = 0;
collector_op[0].sem_op = -10000;
collector_op[0].sem_flg = SEM_UNDO;
collector_op[1].sem_num = 0;
collector_op[1].sem_op = -10000;
collector_op[1].sem_flg = SEM_UNDO;
if (semop(semid, depositor_op, 1) == -1)
{ perror("Failed to do 1st deposit"); return 1; }
if (semop(semid, collector_op, 2) == -1)
{ perror("Failed to do 1st collect"); return 1; }
if (semop(semid, depositor_op, 1) == -1)
{ perror("Failed to do 2nd deposit"); return 1; }
if (semop(semid, collector_op, 2) == -1)
{ perror("Failed to do 2nd collect"); return 1; }
return 0;
It passes without error now but the semadj value has overflown in the 2nd
collector operation.

Commit da29bd36224b ("mm/mm_init.c: make creation of the mm_kobj happen
earlier than device_initcall") changed to pure_initcall(mm_sysfs_init).
That's too early: mm_sysfs_init() depends on core_initcall(ksysfs_init)
to have made the kernel_kobj directory "kernel" in which to create "mm".
Make it postcore_initcall(mm_sysfs_init). We could use core_initcall(),
and depend upon Makefile link order kernel/ mm/ fs/ ipc/ security/ ...
as core_initcall(debugfs_init) and core_initcall(securityfs_init) do;
but better not.

Revert commit ece86e222db4, which was intended as a small performance
improvement.
Despite the claim that the patch doesn't introduce any functional
changes in fact it does.
The "no page" path behaves different now. Originally, vmalloc_to_page
might return NULL under some conditions, with new implementation it
returns pfn_to_page(0) which is not the same as NULL.
Simple test shows the difference.
test.c
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/vmalloc.h>
#include <linux/mm.h>
int __init myi(void)
{
struct page *p;
void *v;
v = vmalloc(PAGE_SIZE);
/* trigger the "no page" path in vmalloc_to_page*/
vfree(v);
p = vmalloc_to_page(v);
pr_err("expected val = NULL, returned val = %p", p);
return -EBUSY;
}
void __exit mye(void)
{
}
module_init(myi)
module_exit(mye)
Before interchange:
expected val = NULL, returned val = (null)
After interchange:
expected val = NULL, returned val = c7ebe000

In original __alloc_memory_core_early() for bootmem wrapper, we do not
align size silently.
We should not do that, as later free with old size will leave some range
not freed.
It's obvious that code is copied from memblock_base_nid(), and that code
is wrong for the same reason.
Also remove that in memblock_alloc_base.

Dave reported big numa system booting is broken.
It turns out that commit 5b6e529521d3 ("x86: memblock: set current limit
to max low memory address") sets the limit to low wrongly.
max_low_pfn_mapped is different from max_pfn_mapped.
max_low_pfn_mapped is always under 4G.
That will memblock_alloc_nid all go under 4G.
Revert 5b6e529521d3 to fix a no-boot regression which was triggered by

At a glance these are just the inverse of each other. The one subtlety
is that arch_spin_value_unlocked() takes the lock by value, rather than
as a pointer, which is important for the lockref code.
On the other hand arch_spin_is_locked() doesn't really care, so
implement it in terms of arch_spin_value_unlocked().

This commit adds the architecture support required to enable the
optimised implementation of lockrefs.
That's as simple as defining arch_spin_value_unlocked() and selecting
the Kconfig option.
We also define cmpxchg64_relaxed(), because the lockref code does not
need the cmpxchg to have barrier semantics.
Using Linus' test case[1] on one system I see a 4x improvement for the
basic enablement, and a further 1.3x for cmpxchg64_relaxed(), for a
total of 5.3x vs the baseline.
On another system I see more like 2x improvement.

dcache: Translating dentry into pathname without taking rename_lock
The __dentry_path locking was changed and the variable error was
intended to be moved outside of the loop. Unfortunately the inner
declaration of error was not removed. Resulting in a version of
__dentry_path that will never return an error.
Remove the problematic inner declaration of error and allow
__dentry_path to return errors once again.

So far I've had one ACK for this, and no other comments. So I think it
is probably time to send this via some suitable tree. I'm guessing that
the vfs tree would be the most appropriate route, but not sure that
there is one at the moment (don't see anything recent at kernel.org)
so in that case I think -mm is the "back up plan". Al, please let me
know if you will take this?
Steve.
---------------------
Following on from the "Re: [PATCH v3] vfs: fix a bug when we do some dio
reads with append dio writes" thread on linux-fsdevel, this patch is my
current version of the fix proposed as option (b) in that thread.
Removing the i_size test from the direct i/o read path at vfs level
means that filesystems now have to deal with requests which are beyond
i_size themselves. These I've divided into three sets:
a) Those with "no op" ->direct_IO (9p, cifs, ceph)
These are obviously not going to be an issue
b) Those with "home brew" ->direct_IO (nfs, fuse)
I've been told that NFS should not have any problem with the larger
i_size, however I've added an extra test to FUSE to duplicate the
original behaviour just to be on the safe side.
c) Those using __blockdev_direct_IO()
These call through to ->get_block() which should deal with the EOF
condition correctly. I've verified that with GFS2 and I believe that
Zheng has verified it for ext4. I've also run the test on XFS and it
passes both before and after this change.
The part of the patch in filemap.c looks a lot larger than it really is
- there are only two lines of real change. The rest is just indentation
of the contained code.
There remains a test of i_size though, which was added for btrfs. It
doesn't cause the other filesystems a problem as the test is performed
after ->direct_IO has been called. It is possible that there is a race
that does matter to btrfs, however this patch doesn't change that, so
its still an overall improvement.

When using the per-superblock xattr handlers permission checking is
done by the generic code. hfsplus just needs to check for the magic
osx attribute not to leak into protected namespaces.
Also given that the code was obviously copied from JFS the proper
attribution was missing.

Remove the boilerplate code to marshall and unmarhall ACL objects into
xattrs and operate on the posix_acl objects directly. Also move all
the ACL handling code into nfs?acl.c where it belongs.

This causes a small behaviour change in that we don't bother to set
ACLs on file creation if the mode bit can express the access permissions
fully, and thus behaving identical to local filesystems.

This contains some major refactoring for the create path so that
inodes are created with the right mode to start with instead of
fixing it up later.
