2007-10-10[NET]: Support multiple network namespaces with netlinkEric W. Biederman
Each netlink socket will live in exactly one network namespace, this includes the controlling kernel sockets. This patch updates all of the existing netlink protocols to only support the initial network namespace. Request by clients in other namespaces will get -ECONREFUSED. As they would if the kernel did not have the support for that netlink protocol compiled in. As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces. The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation at hash table insertion and hash table look up time. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespaceEric W. Biederman
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace. The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument, and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument. This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces. Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents that are relevant to a single network namespace.

2007-10-10[NET]: Don't implement dev_ifname32 inlineEric W. Biederman
The current implementation of dev_ifname makes maintenance difficult because updates to the implementation of the ioctl have to made in two places. So this patch updates dev_ifname32 to do a classic 32/64 structure conversion and call sys_ioctl like the rest of the compat calls do. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-10-10Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_ioNeilBrown
As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete, the 'size' argument is now redundant. Remove it. Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed from bi_size. So don't do that either. While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-10Don't decrement bi_size in bio_endioNeilBrown
The only caller of bio_endio that does not pass the full bi_size is end_that_request_first. Also, no ->bi_end_io method is really interested in bi_size being decremented. So move the decrement and related code into ll_rw_blk and merge it with order_bio_endio to form req_bio_endio which does endio functionality specific to request completion. As some ->bi_end_io methods do check bi_size of 0, we set it thus for now, but that will go in the next patch.

Nick Piggin points out that splice isn't being good about the mmap semaphore: while two readers can nest inside each others, it does leave a possible deadlock if a writer (ie a new mmap()) comes in during that nesting.

2007-10-01Revert "[XFS] Avoid replaying inode buffer initialisation log items if ↵Tim Shimmin
on-disk version is newer." This reverts commit b394e43e995d08821588a22561c6a71a63b4ff27. Lachlan McIlroy says: It tried to fix an issue where log replay is replaying an inode cluster initialisation transaction that should not be replayed because the inode cluster on disk is more up to date. Since we don't log file sizes (we rely on inode flushing to get them to disk) then we can't just replay all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely restored. We lose file size updates. Unfortunately this fix is causing more (serious) problems than it is fixing.

2007-09-26NLM: Fix a circular lock dependency in lockdTrond Myklebust
The problem is that the garbage collector for the 'host' structures nlm_gc_hosts(), holds nlm_host_mutex while calling down to nlmsvc_mark_resources, which, eventually takes the file->f_mutex. We cannot therefore call nlmsvc_lookup_host() from within nlmsvc_create_block, since the caller will already hold file->f_mutex, so the attempt to grab nlm_host_mutex may deadlock. Fix the problem by calling nlmsvc_lookup_host() outside the file->f_mutex. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-09-20ocfs2: Don't double set write parametersMark Fasheh
The target page offsets were being incorrectly set a second time in ocfs2_prepare_page_for_write(), which was causing problems on a 16k page size kernel.

2007-09-20ocfs2: Fix pos/len passed to ocfs2_write_clusterMark Fasheh
This was broken for file systems whose cluster size is greater than page size. Pos needs to be incremented as we loop through the descriptors, and len needs to be capped to the size of a single cluster. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2007-09-20ocfs2: Allow smaller allocations during large writesMark Fasheh
The ocfs2 write code loops through a page much like the block code, except that ocfs2 allocation units can be any size, including larger than page size. Typically it's equal to or larger than page size - most kernels run 4k pages, the minimum ocfs2 allocation (cluster) size. Some changes introduced during 2.6.23 changed the way writes to pages are handled, and inadvertantly broke support for > 4k page size. Instead of just writing one cluster at a time, we now handle the whole page in one pass. This means that multiple (small) seperate allocations might happen in the same pass. The allocation code howver typically optimizes by getting the maximum which was reserved. This triggered a BUG_ON in the extend code where it'd ask for a single bit (for one part of a > 4k page) and get back more than it asked for. Fix this by providing a variant of the high level allocation function which allows the caller to specify a maximum. The traditional function remains and just calls the new one with a maximum determined from the initial reservation. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2007-09-20signalfd simplificationDavide Libenzi
This simplifies signalfd code, by avoiding it to remain attached to the sighand during its lifetime. In this way, the signalfd remain attached to the sighand only during poll(2) (and select and epoll) and read(2). This also allows to remove all the custom "tsk == current" checks in kernel/signal.c, since dequeue_signal() will only be called by "current". I think this is also what Ben was suggesting time ago. The external effect of this, is that a thread can extract only its own private signals and the group ones. I think this is an acceptable behaviour, in that those are the signals the thread would be able to fetch w/out signalfd.

2007-09-20[XFS] fix valid but harmless sparse warningChristoph Hellwig
The new xlog_recover_do_reg_buffer checks call be16_to_cpu on di_gen which is a 32bit value so sparse rightly complains. Fortunately the warning is harmless because we don't care for the value, but only whether it's non-NULL. Due to that fact we can simply kill the endian swaps on this and the previous di_mode check entirely.

2007-09-19ext34: ensure do_split leaves enough free space in both blocksEric Sandeen
The do_split() function for htree dir blocks is intended to split a leaf block to make room for a new entry. It sorts the entries in the original block by hash value, then moves the last half of the entries to the new block - without accounting for how much space this actually moves. (IOW, it moves half of the entry *count* not half of the entry *space*). If by chance we have both large & small entries, and we move only the smallest entries, and we have a large new entry to insert, we may not have created enough space for it. The patch below stores each record size when calculating the dx_map, and then walks the hash-sorted dx_map, calculating how many entries must be moved to more evenly split the existing entries between the old block and the new block, guaranteeing enough space for the new entry. The dx_map "offs" member is reduced to u16 so that the overall map size does not change - it is temporarily stored at the end of the new block, and if it grows too large it may be overwritten. By making offs and size both u16, we won't grow the map size. Also add a few comments to the functions involved. This fixes the testcase reported by hooanon05@yahoo.co.jp on the linux-ext4 list, "ext3 dir_index causes an error" Thanks to Andreas Dilger for discussing the problem & solution with me.

2007-09-19[POWERPC] spufs: Cleanup ELF coredump extra notes logicMichael Ellerman
To start with, arch_notes_size() etc. is a little too ambiguous a name for my liking, so change the function names to be more explicit. Calling through macros is ugly, especially with hidden parameters, so don't do that, call the routines directly. Use ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_ELF_NOTES as the only flag, and based on it decide whether we want the extern declarations or the empty versions. Since we have empty routines, actually use them in the coredump code to save a few #ifdefs. We want to change the handling of foffset so that the write routine updates foffset as it goes, instead of using file->f_pos (so that writing to a pipe works). So pass foffset to the write routine, and for now just set it to file->f_pos at the end of writing. It should also be possible for the write routine to fail, so change it to return int and treat a non-zero return as failure.

2007-09-17[XFS] On-demand reaping of the MRU cacheDavid Chinner
Instead of running the mru cache reaper all the time based on a timeout, we should only run it when the cache has active objects. This allows CPUs to sleep when there is no activity rather than be woken repeatedly just to check if there is anything to do.
