2011-05-03logfs: initialize superblock entries earlierLinus Torvalds
In particular, s_freeing_list needs to be initialized early, since it is used on some of the error paths when mounts fail. The mapping inode, for example, would be initialized and then free'd on an error path before s_freeing_list was initialized, but the inode drop operation needs the s_freeing_list to be set up. Normally you'd never see this, because not only is logfs fairly rare, but a successful mount will never have any issues.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.infradead.org/ubifs-2.6: UBIFS: seek journal heads to the latest bud in replay UBIFS: do not free write-buffers when in R/O mode
2011-05-02UBIFS: seek journal heads to the latest bud in replayArtem Bityutskiy
This is the second fix of the following symptom: UBIFS error (pid 34456): could not find an empty LEB which sometimes happens after power cuts when we mount the file-system - UBIFS refuses it with the above error message which comes from the 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' function. I can reproduce this using the integck test with the UBIFS power cut emulation enabled. Analysis of the problem. Currently UBIFS replay seeks the journal heads to the last _replayed_ bud. But the buds are replayed out-of-order, so the replay basically seeks journal heads to the "random" bud belonging to this head, and not to the _last_ one. The result of this is that the GC head may be seeked to a full LEB with no free space, or very little free space. And 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' tries to find a fully or mostly dirty LEB to match the current GC head (because we need to garbage-collect that dirty LEB at one go, because we do not have @c->gc_lnum). So 'ubifs_find_dirty_leb()' fails and we fall back to finding an empty LEB and also fail. As a result - recovery fails and mounting fails. This patch teaches the replay to initialize the GC heads exactly to the latest buds, i.e. the buds which have the largest sequence number in corresponding log reference nodes.

2011-05-02UBIFS: do not free write-buffers when in R/O modeArtem Bityutskiy
Currently UBIFS has a small optimization - it frees write-buffers when it is re-mounted from R/W mode to R/O mode. Of course, when it is mounted R/O, it does not allocate write-buffers as well. This optimization is nice but it leads to subtle problems and complications in recovery, which I can reproduce using the integck test. The symptoms are that after a power cut the file-system cannot be mounted if we first mount it R/O, and then re-mount R/W - 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' prints: UBIFS error (pid 34456): could not find an empty LEB Analysis of the problem. When mounting R/W, the reply process sets journal heads to buds [1], but when mounting R/O - it does not do this, because the write-buffers are not allocated. So 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' works completely differently for the same file-system but for the following 2 cases: 1. mounting R/W after a power cut and recover 2. mounting R/O after a power cut, re-mounting R/W and run deferred recovery In the former case, we have journal heads seeked to the a bud, in the latter case, they are non-seeked (wbuf->lnum == -1). So in the latter case we do not try to recover the GC LEB by garbage-collecting to the GC head, but we just try to find an empty LEB, and there may be no empty LEBs, so we just fail. On the other hand, in the former case (mount R/W), we are able to make a GC LEB (@c->gc_lnum) by garbage-collecting. Thus, let's remove this small nice optimization and always allocate write-buffers. This should not make too big difference - we have only 3 of them, each of max. write unit size, which is usually 2KiB. So this is about 6KiB of RAM for the typical case, and only when mounted R/O. [1]: Note, currently the replay process is setting (seeking) the journal heads to _some_ buds, not necessarily to the buds which had been the journal heads before the power cut happened. This will be fixed separately. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org
2011-04-29block: rescan partitions on invalidated devices on -ENOMEDIA tooTejun Heo
__blkdev_get() doesn't rescan partitions if disk->fops->open() fails, which leads to ghost partition devices lingering after medimum removal is known to both the kernel and userland. The behavior also creates a subtle inconsistency where O_NONBLOCK open, which doesn't fail even if there's no medium, clears the ghots partitions, which is exploited to work around the problem from userland. Fix it by updating __blkdev_get() to issue partition rescan after -ENOMEDIA too.

2011-04-28vfs: avoid large kmalloc()s for the fdtableAndrew Morton
Azurit reports large increases in system time after 2.6.36 when running Apache. It was bisected down to a892e2d7dcdfa6c76e6 ("vfs: use kmalloc() to allocate fdmem if possible"). That patch caused the vfs to use kmalloc() for very large allocations and this is causing excessive work (and presumably excessive reclaim) within the page allocator. Fix it by falling back to vmalloc() earlier - when the allocation attempt would have been considered "costly" by reclaim.

2011-04-27NFSv4: Ensure we request the ordinary fileid when doing readdirplusTrond Myklebust
When readdir() returns a directory entry for the root of a mounted filesystem, Linux follows the old convention of returning the inode number of the covered directory (despite newer versions of POSIX declaring that this is a bug). To ensure this continues to work, the NFSv4 readdir implementation requests the 'mounted-on-fileid' from the server. However, readdirplus also needs to instantiate an inode for this entry, and for that, we also need to request the real fileid as per this patch.

2011-04-25eCryptfs: Handle failed metadata read in lookupTyler Hicks
When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup, eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to delete through the eCryptfs mount. If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this adds minimal performance overhead. This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be fixed in the open() or setattr() paths. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509180 Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2011-04-25eCryptfs: Add reference counting to lower filesTyler Hicks
For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first lookup through the lifetime of the inode. This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the term persistent file are changed to lower file. Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it. This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3 client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs inode is destroyed.

2011-04-24vfs: get rid of insane dentry hashing rulesLinus Torvalds
The dentry hashing rules have been really quite complicated for a long while, in odd ways. That made functions like __d_drop() very fragile and non-obvious. In particular, whether a dentry was hashed or not was indicated with an explicit DCACHE_UNHASHED bit. That's despite the fact that the hash abstraction that the dentries use actually have a 'is this entry hashed or not' model (which is a simple test of the 'pprev' pointer). The reason that was done is because we used the normal 'is this entry unhashed' model to mark whether the dentry had _ever_ been hashed in the dentry hash tables, and that logic goes back many years (commit b3423415fbc2: "dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentries"). That, in turn, meant that __d_drop had totally different unhashing logic for the dentry hash table case and for the anonymous dcache case, because in order to use the "is this dentry hashed" logic as a flag for whether it had ever been on the RCU hash table, we had to unhash such a dentry differently so that we'd never think that it wasn't 'unhashed' and wouldn't be free'd correctly. That's just insane. It made the logic really hard to follow, when there were two different kinds of "unhashed" states, and one of them (the one that used "list_bl_unhashed()") really had nothing at all to do with being unhashed per se, but with a very subtle lifetime rule instead. So turn all of it around, and make it logical. Instead of having a DENTRY_UNHASHED bit in d_flags to indicate whether the dentry is on the hash chains or not, use the hash chain unhashed logic for that. Suddenly "d_unhashed()" just uses "list_bl_unhashed()", and everything makes sense. And for the lifetime rule, just use an explicit DENTRY_RCUACCEES bit. If we ever insert the dentry into the dentry hash table so that it is visible to RCU lookup, we mark it DENTRY_RCUACCESS to show that it now needs the RCU lifetime rules. Now suddently that test at dentry free time makes sense too. And because unhashing now is sane and doesn't depend on where the dentry got unhashed from (because the dentry hash chain details doesn't have some subtle side effects), we can re-unify the __d_drop() logic and use common code for the unhashing. Also fix one more open-coded hash chain bit_spin_lock() that I missed in the previous chain locking cleanup commit. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2011-04-23vfs: get rid of 'struct dcache_hash_bucket' abstractionLinus Torvalds
It's a useless abstraction for 'hlist_bl_head', and it doesn't actually help anything - quite the reverse. All the users end up having to know about the hlist_bl_head details anyway, using 'struct hlist_bl_node *' etc. So it just makes the code look confusing. And the cost of it is extra '&b->head' syntactic noise, but more importantly it spuriously makes the hash table dentry list look different from the per-superblock DCACHE_DISCONNECTED dentry list. As a result, the code ended up using ad-hoc locking for one case and special helper functions for what is really another totally identical case in the very same function. Make it all look and work the same. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2011-04-21CIFS: Fix memory over bound bug in cifs_parse_mount_optionsPavel Shilovsky
While password processing we can get out of options array bound if the next character after array is delimiter. The patch adds a check if we reach the end.
