Original problem: in some circumstances seq_file interface can present
infinite proc file to the following script when normally said proc file is
finite:
while read line; do
[do something with $line]
done </proc/$FILE
bash, to implement such loop does essentially
read(0, buf, 128);
[find \n]
lseek(0, -difference, SEEK_CUR);
Consider, proc file prints list of objects each of them consists of many
lines, each line is shorter than 128 bytes.
Two objects in list, with ->index'es being 0 and 1. Current one is 1, as
bash prints second object line by line.
Imagine first object being removed right before lseek().
traverse() will be called, because there is negative offset.
traverse() will reset ->index to 0 (!).
traverse() will call ->next() and get NULL in any usual iterate-over-list
code using list_for_each_entry_continue() and such. There is one object in
list now after all...
traverse() will return 0, lseek() will update file position and pretend
everything is OK.
So, what we have now: ->f_pos points to place where second object will be
printed, but ->index is 0. seq_read() instead of returning EOF, will start
printing first line of first object every time it's called, until enough
objects are added to ->f_pos return in bounds.
Fix is to update ->index only after we're sure we saw enough objects down
the road.

Part two in the O_CLOEXEC saga: adding support for file descriptors received
through Unix domain sockets.
The patch is once again pretty minimal, it introduces a new flag for recvmsg
and passes it just like the existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag. I think this bit
is not used otherwise but the networking people will know better.
This new flag is not recognized by recvfrom and recv. These functions cannot
be used for that purpose and the asymmetry this introduces is not worse than
the already existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT situations.
The patch must be applied on the patch which introduced O_CLOEXEC. It has to
remove static from the new get_unused_fd_flags function but since scm.c cannot
live in a module the function still hasn't to be exported.
Here's a test program to make sure the code works. It's so much longer than
the actual patch...

The problem is as follows: in multi-threaded code (or more correctly: all
code using clone() with CLONE_FILES) we have a race when exec'ing.
thread #1 thread #2
fd=open()
fork + exec
fcntl(fd,F_SETFD,FD_CLOEXEC)
In some applications this can happen frequently. Take a web browser. One
thread opens a file and another thread starts, say, an external PDF viewer.
The result can even be a security issue if that open file descriptor
refers to a sensitive file and the external program can somehow be tricked
into using that descriptor.
Just adding O_CLOEXEC support to open() doesn't solve the whole set of
problems. There are other ways to create file descriptors (socket,
epoll_create, Unix domain socket transfer, etc). These can and should be
addressed separately though. open() is such an easy case that it makes not
much sense putting the fix off.
The test program:
#include <errno.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#ifndef O_CLOEXEC
# define O_CLOEXEC 02000000

fd = open ("/proc/self/exe", O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC);

execl ("/proc/self/exe", argv[0], buf, NULL);

Some users have been having problems with utilities like cp or dd dumping
core when they try to copy a file that's too large for the destination
filesystem (typically, > 4gb). Apparently, some defunct standards required
SIGXFSZ to be sent in such circumstances, but SUS only requires/allows it
for when a written file exceeds the process's resource limits. I'd like to
limit SIGXFSZs to the bare minimum required by SUS.

* "int * foo" instead of "int *foo"
* "while ( foo )" instead of "while (foo)"
* if (foo) blah; on one line instead of two
* Missing printk KERN_ levels
* lots of trailing whitespace
* lines >80 columns changed to wrap.
* Unnecessary prototype removed by shuffling code order in C file.
Should be no functional changes other than slight size increase due to
printk changes. Further improvement possible, but this is a start..

pde->write_proc = ...
open

pde = create_proc_entry();
if (!pde) {

return -ENOMEM;
/* module unloaded */
}

[check ->f_op->read validness]
[verify_area, security permissions checks]
->f_op = NULL;
if (file->f_op->read)
/* ->f_op dereference, boom */
NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: file_operations are proxied for regular files only. Let's
see how this scheme behaves, then extend if needed for directories.
Directories creators in /proc only set ->owner for them, so proxying for
directories may be unneeded.
NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: methods being proxied are ->llseek, ->read, ->write,
->poll, ->unlocked_ioctl, ->ioctl, ->compat_ioctl, ->open, ->release.

OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> reported that he's noticed
nfsd read corruption in recent kernels, and did the hard work of
discovering that it's due to splice updating the file position twice.
This means that the next operation would start further ahead than it
should.
nfsd_vfs_read()
splice_direct_to_actor()
while(len) {
do_splice_to() [update sd->pos]
-> generic_file_splice_read() [read from sd->pos]
nfsd_direct_splice_actor()
-> __splice_from_pipe() [update sd->pos]
There's nothing wrong with the core splice code, but the direct
splicing is an addon that calls both input and output paths.
So it has to take care in locally caching offset so it remains correct.

* 32bit struct xfs_fsop_bulkreq has different size and layout of
members, no matter the alignment. Move the code out of the #else
branch (why was it there in the first place?). Define _32 variants of
the ioctl constants.
* 32bit struct xfs_bstat is different because of time_t and on
i386 because of different padding. Make xfs_bulkstat_one() accept a
custom "output formatter" in the private_data argument which takes care
of the xfs_bulkstat_one_compat() that takes care of the different
layout in the compat case.
* i386 struct xfs_inogrp has different padding.
Add a similar "output formatter" mecanism to xfs_inumbers().

32bit struct xfs_fsop_handlereq has different size and offsets (due to
pointers). TODO: case XFS_IOC_{FSSETDM,ATTRLIST,ATTRMULTI}_BY_HANDLE still
not handled.

i386 struct xfs_fsop_geom_v1 has no padding after the last member, so the
size is different.

Remove the hardcoded "fnames" for tracing, and just embed them in tracing
macros via __FUNCTION__. Kills a lot of #ifdefs too.

Avoid using a special "zero inode" as the parent of the quota inode as
this can confuse the filestreams code into thinking the quota inode has a
parent. We do not want the quota inode to follow filestreams allocation
rules, so pass a NULL as the parent inode and detect this condition when
doing stream associations.

In media spaces, video is often stored in a frame-per-file format. When
dealing with uncompressed realtime HD video streams in this format, it is
crucial that files do not get fragmented and that multiple files a placed
contiguously on disk.
When multiple streams are being ingested and played out at the same time,
it is critical that the filesystem does not cross the streams and
interleave them together as this creates seek and readahead cache miss
latency and prevents both ingest and playout from meeting frame rate
targets.
This patch set creates a "stream of files" concept into the allocator to
place all the data from a single stream contiguously on disk so that RAID
array readahead can be used effectively. Each additional stream gets
placed in different allocation groups within the filesystem, thereby
ensuring that we don't cross any streams. When an AG fills up, we select a
new AG for the stream that is not in use.
The core of the functionality is the stream tracking - each inode that we
create in a directory needs to be associated with the directories' stream.
Hence every time we create a file, we look up the directories' stream
object and associate the new file with that object.
Once we have a stream object for a file, we use the AG that the stream
object point to for allocations. If we can't allocate in that AG (e.g. it
is full) we move the entire stream to another AG. Other inodes in the same
stream are moved to the new AG on their next allocation (i.e. lazy
update).
Stream objects are kept in a cache and hold a reference on the inode.
Hence the inode cannot be reclaimed while there is an outstanding stream
reference. This means that on unlink we need to remove the stream
association and we also need to flush all the associations on certain
events that want to reclaim all unreferenced inodes (e.g. filesystem
freeze).

A check for file_count is always a bad idea. Linux has the ->release
method to deal with cleanups on last close and ->flush is only for the
very rare case where we want to perform an operation on every drop of a
reference to a file struct.
This patch gets rid of vop_close and surrounding code in favour of simply
doing the page flushing from ->release.
