Pull xfs update from Dave Chinner:
"There are a couple of new fallocate features in this request - it was
decided that it was easiest to push them through the XFS tree using
topic branches and have the ext4 support be based on those branches.
Hence you may see some overlap with the ext4 tree merge depending on
how they including those topic branches into their tree. Other than
that, there is O_TMPFILE support, some cleanups and bug fixes.
The main changes in the XFS tree for 3.15-rc1 are:
- O_TMPFILE support
- allowing AIO+DIO writes beyond EOF
- FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE support for fallocate syscall and XFS
implementation
- FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE support for fallocate syscall and XFS
implementation
- IO verifier cleanup and rework
- stack usage reduction changes
- vm_map_ram NOIO context fixes to remove lockdep warings
- various bug fixes and cleanups"

Pull GFS2 updates from Steven Whitehouse:
"One of the main highlights this time, is not the patches themselves
but instead the widening contributor base. It is good to see that
interest is increasing in GFS2, and I'd like to thank all the
contributors to this patch set.
In addition to the usual set of bug fixes and clean ups, there are
patches to improve inode creation performance when xattrs are required
and some improvements to the transaction code which is intended to
help improve scalability after further changes in due course.
Journal extent mapping is also updated to make it more efficient and
again, this is a foundation for future work in this area.
The maximum number of ACLs has been increased to 300 (for a 4k block
size) which means that even with a few additional xattrs from selinux,
everything should fit within a single fs block.
There is also a patch to bring GFS2's own copy of the writepages code
up to the same level as the core VFS. Eventually we may be able to
merge some of this code, since it is fairly similar.
The other major change this time, is bringing consistency to the
printing of messages via fs_<level>, pr_<level> macros"

Pull renameat2 system call from Miklos Szeredi:
"This adds a new syscall, renameat2(), which is the same as renameat()
but with a flags argument.
The purpose of extending rename is to add cross-rename, a symmetric
variant of rename, which exchanges the two files. This allows
interesting things, which were not possible before, for example
atomically replacing a directory tree with a symlink, etc... This
also allows overlayfs and friends to operate on whiteouts atomically.
Andy Lutomirski also suggested a "noreplace" flag, which disables the
overwriting behavior of rename.
These two flags, RENAME_EXCHANGE and RENAME_NOREPLACE are only
implemented for ext4 as an example and for testing"

Add code to check sizes of on-disk data of metadata files such as inode
size, segment usage size, DAT entry size, and checkpoint size. Although
these sizes are read from disk, the current implementation doesn't check
them.
If these sizes are not sane on disk, it can cause out-of-range access to
metadata or memory access overrun on metadata block buffers due to
overflow in sundry calculations.
Both lower limit and upper limit of metadata sizes are verified to
prevent these issues.

With this ioctl the segment usage entries in the SUFILE can be updated
from userspace.
This is useful, because it allows the userspace GC to modify and update
segment usage entries for specific segments, which enables it to avoid
unnecessary write operations.
If a segment needs to be cleaned, but there is no or very little
reclaimable space in it, the cleaning operation basically degrades to a
useless moving operation. In the end the only thing that changes is the
location of the data and a timestamp in the segment usage information.
With this ioctl the GC can skip the cleaning and update the segment
usage entries directly instead.
This is basically a shortcut to cleaning the segment. It is still
necessary to read the segment summary information, but the writing of
the live blocks can be skipped if it's not worth it.

There is plenty of anecdotal evidence and a load of blog posts
suggesting that using "drop_caches" periodically keeps your system
running in "tip top shape". Perhaps adding some kernel documentation
will increase the amount of accurate data on its use.
If we are not shrinking caches effectively, then we have real bugs.
Using drop_caches will simply mask the bugs and make them harder to
find, but certainly does not fix them, nor is it an appropriate
"workaround" to limit the size of the caches. On the contrary, there
have been bug reports on issues that turned out to be misguided use of
cache dropping.
Dropping caches is a very drastic and disruptive operation that is good
for debugging and running tests, but if it creates bug reports from
production use, kernel developers should be aware of its use.
Add a bit more documentation about it, a syslog message to track down
abusers, and vmstat drop counters to help analyze problem reports.

This patch removes read_cache_page_async() which wasn't really needed
anywhere and simplifies the code around it a bit.
read_cache_page_async() is useful when we want to read a page into the
cache without waiting for it to complete. This happens when the
appropriate callback 'filler' doesn't complete its read operation and
releases the page lock immediately, and instead queues a different
completion routine to do that. This never actually happened anywhere in
the code.
read_cache_page_async() had 3 different callers:
- read_cache_page() which is the sync version, it would just wait for
the requested read to complete using wait_on_page_read().
- JFFS2 would call it from jffs2_gc_fetch_page(), but the filler
function it supplied doesn't do any async reads, and would complete
before the filler function returns - making it actually a sync read.
- CRAMFS would call it using the read_mapping_page_async() wrapper, with
a similar story to JFFS2 - the filler function doesn't do anything that
reminds async reads and would always complete before the filler function
returns.
To sum it up, the code in mm/filemap.c never took advantage of having
read_cache_page_async(). While there are filler callbacks that do async
reads (such as the block one), we always called it with the
read_cache_page().
This patch adds a mandatory wait for read to complete when adding a new

Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon
evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an
iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point,
reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing
code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty.
Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets
under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check
for this flag before installing shadow pages.

shmem mappings already contain exceptional entries where swap slot
information is remembered.
To be able to store eviction information for regular page cache, prepare
every site dealing with the radix trees directly to handle entries other
than pages.
The common lookup functions will filter out non-page entries and return
NULL for page cache holes, just as before. But provide a raw version of
the API which returns non-page entries as well, and switch shmem over to
use it.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for
example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area
surrounding a fault.
It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is
"empty tree slot". But this is about to change, though, as shadow page
descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get
evicted from memory.
Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache
operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition
of "page cache hole".

This code used to have its own lru cache pagevec up until a0b8cab3 ("mm:
remove lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add and remove parts of pagevec
API"). Now it's just add_to_page_cache() followed by lru_cache_add(),
might as well use add_to_page_cache_lru() directly.

Currently, to track reserved and allocated regions, we use two different
ways, depending on the mapping. For MAP_SHARED, we use
address_mapping's private_list and, while for MAP_PRIVATE, we use a
resv_map.
Now, we are preparing to change a coarse grained lock which protect a
region structure to fine grained lock, and this difference hinder it.
So, before changing it, unify region structure handling, consistently
using a resv_map regardless of the kind of mapping.

It hit the BUG_ON() in ocfs2_set_new_buffer_uptodate():
void ocfs2_set_new_buffer_uptodate(struct ocfs2_caching_info *ci,
struct buffer_head *bh)
{
/* This should definitely *not* exist in our cache */
if (ocfs2_buffer_cached(ci, bh))

ocfs2_metadata_cache_io_lock(ci);
ocfs2_set_buffer_uptodate(ci, bh);
ocfs2_metadata_cache_io_unlock(ci);
}
The problem here is:
We cached a block, but the buffer_head got reused. When we are to pick
up this block again, a new buffer_head created with UPTODATE flag
cleared. ocfs2_buffer_uptodate() returned false since no UPTODATE is
set on the buffer_head. so we set this block to cache as a NEW block,
then it failed at asserting block is not in cache.
The fix is to add a new parameter indicating the bucket is a new
allocated or not to ocfs2_init_xattr_bucket().
ocfs2_init_xattr_bucket() assert block not cached accordingly.

The following case may lead to the same system inode ref in confusion.
A thread B thread
ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
->get_local_system_inode
->_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
because of *arr == NULL,
ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
->get_local_system_inode
->_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
gets first ref thru
_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode,
gets second ref thru igrab and
set *arr = inode
at the moment, B thread also gets
two refs, so lead to one more
inode ref.
So add mutex lock to avoid multi thread set two inode ref once at the

not TCP_LISTEN
Orabug: 17330860
When accepting an incomming connection o2net_accept_one clones a child
data socket from the parent listening socket. It then proceeds to setup
the child with callback o2net_data_ready() and sk_user_data to NULL. If
data arrives in this window, o2net_listen_data_ready will be called with
some non-deterministic value in sk_user_data (not inherited). We panic
when we page fault on sk_user_data -- in parent it is
sock_def_readable().
The fix is to recognize that this is a data socket being set up by
looking at the socket state and do nothing.

ocfs2_create_new_inode_locks() failed
When ocfs2_create_new_inode_locks() return error, inode open lock may
not be obtainted for this inode. So other nodes can remove this file
and free dinode when inode still remain in memory on this node, which is
not correct and may trigger BUG. So __ocfs2_mknod_locked should return
error when ocfs2_create_new_inode_locks() failed.
Node_1 Node_2
create fileA, call ocfs2_mknod()
-> ocfs2_get_init_inode(), allocate inodeA
-> ocfs2_claim_new_inode(), claim dinode(dinodeA)
-> call ocfs2_create_new_inode_locks(),
create open lock failed, return error
-> __ocfs2_mknod_locked return success
unlink fileA
try open lock succeed,
and free dinodeA
create another file, call ocfs2_mknod()
-> ocfs2_get_init_inode(), allocate inodeB
-> ocfs2_claim_new_inode(), as Node_2 had freed dinodeA,
so claim dinodeA and update generation for dinodeA
call __ocfs2_drop_dl_inodes()->ocfs2_delete_inode()
to free inodeA, and finally triggers BUG

fragmentation, clusters are spread over multiple extents. In this case

is anticipated for xattr update case but not xattr create case. This
