* [XFS] decontaminate vnode operations from behavior detailsChristoph Hellwig2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All vnode ops now take struct xfs_inode pointers and the behaviour related glue is split out into methods of it's own. This required fixing xfs_create/mkdir/symlink to not mess with the inode pointer but rather use a separate boolean for error handling. Thanks to Dave Chinner for that fix.

* [XFS] do not have XFSMNT_IDELETE as default when mounted with XFSMNT_DMAPIVlad Apostolov2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | XFS inodes are dynamically allocated on demand, rather than being allocated at mkfs time. Chunks of 64 inodes are allocated at once, but they are never freed. Over time, this can lead to filesystem fragmentation, clusters of inodes and the btrees which point at them can be scattered around the system. By freeing clusters as they are emptied, we will reduce fragmentation of the free space after removing files. This in turn will allow us to make better placement decisions when repopulating a filesystem. The XFSMNT_IDELETE mount option enables freeing clusters when they get empty. Unfortunately a side effect of freeing inode clusters is that the inode generation numbers of such inodes would be reset to zero when the cluster is reclaimed. This is a problem in particular for a DMAPI enabled filesystem as the the DMAPI handles need to be unique and persistent in time. An unique DMAPI handle is built with the help of the inode generation number. When the last one is prematurely reset by an inode cluster reclaim, there is a high probability of different generation inodes to end up having identical DMAPI handles. To avoid the problem with identical DMAPI handles, the XFSMNT_IDELETE mount option should be set as default, only if the filesystem is not mounted with XFSMNT_DMAPI.

* [XFS] Radix tree based inode cachingDavid Chinner2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum realistic size of the cache. As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to allow decent scalability with inode cache operations. A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the inode hash is causing issues. The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....

* [XFS] use filldir internallyChristoph Hellwig2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently xfs has a rather complicated internal scheme to allow for different directory formats in IRIX. This patch rips all code related to this out and pushes useage of the Linux filldir callback into the lowlevel directory code. This does not make the code any less portable because filldir can be used to create dirents of all possible variations (including the IRIX ones as proved by the IRIX binary emulation code under arch/mips/). This patch get rid of an unessecary copy in the readdir path, about 400 lines of code and one of the last two users of the uio structure. This version is updated to deal with dmapi aswell which greatly simplifies the get_dirattrs code. The dmapi part has been tested using the get_dirattrs tools from the xfstest dmapi suite1 with various small and large directories.

* [XFS] superblock endianess annotationsChristoph Hellwig2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Creates a new xfs_dsb_t that is __be annotated and keeps xfs_sb_t for the incore one. xfs_xlatesb is renamed to xfs_sb_to_disk and only handles the incore -> disk conversion. A new helper xfs_sb_from_disk handles the other direction and doesn't need the slightly hacky table-driven approach because we only ever read the full sb from disk. The handling of shared r/o filesystems has been buggy on little endian system and fixing this required shuffling around of some code in that area.

* [XFS] dinode endianess annotationsChristoph Hellwig2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Biggest bit is duplicating the dinode structure so we have one annotated for native endianess and one for disk endianess. The other significant change is that xfs_xlate_dinode_core is split into one helper per direction to allow for proper annotations, everything else is trivial. As a sidenode splitting out the incore dinode means we can move it into xfs_inode.h in a later patch and severely improving on the include hell in xfs.

The problem is in this code in ndisc_redirect_rcv(): if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) { on_link = 1; } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) { ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not link-local.\n"); return; } This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example, FF02::1 because it has link-local scope. Instead, it should be checking if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section 8.1: - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination Address (when redirected to the on-link destination). I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's implied. This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so we were passing the test. This won't be the case anymore. The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect() to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target field. I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux passes all 245 tests now.

| | * [TCP]: Fix fastpath_cnt_hint when GSO skb is partially ACKedIlpo Järvinen2007-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset, therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue eventually anyway. In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed, the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore), thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the current page_mkwrite() implementations also set the page dirty. Which results in the set_page_dirty_balance() call to _not_ call balance, because the page is already found dirty. This allows us to dirty a _lot_ of pages without ever hitting balance_dirty_pages(). Not good (tm). Force a balance call if ->page_mkwrite() was successful. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| * | fix bogus reporting of signals by auditAl Viro2007-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Async signals should not be reported as sent by current in audit log. As it is, we call audit_signal_info() too early in check_kill_permission(). Note that check_kill_permission() has that test already - it needs to know if it should apply current-based permission checks. So the solution is to move the call of audit_signal_info() between those. Bogosity in question is easily reproduced - add a rule watching for e.g. kill(2) from specific process (so that audit_signal_info() would not short-circuit to nothing), say load_policy, watch the bogus OBJ_PID entry in audit logs claiming that write(2) on selinuxfs file issued by load_policy(8) had somehow managed to send a signal to syslogd...
