These patches add the Optimized MPEG Filesystem, a proprietary filesystem used
by the embedded devices Rio Karma and ReplayTV, which are no longer
manufactured. This filesystem module enables people to access files on these
devices.
This patch:
OMFS is a proprietary filesystem created for the ReplayTV and also used by the
Rio Karma. It uses hash tables with unordered, unbounded lists in each bucket
for directories, extents for data blocks, 64-bit addressing for blocks, with
up to 8K blocks (only 2K of a given block is ever used for metadata, so the FS
still works with 4K pages).
Document the filesystem usage and structures.

Allows one to create and use a channel with no associated files. Files
can be initialized later. This is useful in scenarios such as logging in
early code, before VFS is up. Therefore, such channels can be created and
used as soon as kmem_cache_init() completed.
This is needed by kmemtrace to do tracing in early kernel code.

Christoph recently added /proc/vmallocinfo file to get information about
vmalloc allocations.
This patch adds NUMA specific information, giving number of pages
allocated on each memory node.
This should help to check that vmalloc() is able to respect NUMA policies.
Example of output on a four nodes machine (one cpu per node)
1) network hash tables are evenly spreaded on four nodes (OK) (Same
point for inodes and dentries hash tables)
2) iptables tables (x_tables) are correctly allocated on each cpu node
(OK).
3) sys_swapon() allocates its memory from one node only.
4) each loaded module is using memory on one node.
Sysadmins could tune their setup to change points 3) and 4) if necessary.

In order to be able to debug things like the X server and programs using
the PPC Cell SPUs, the debugger needs to be able to access device memory
through ptrace and /proc/pid/mem.
This patch:
Add the generic_access_phys access function and put the hooks in place
to allow access_process_vm to access device or PPC Cell SPU memory.

Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.
What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
seems counter productive.
2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
environment like an initramfs.
3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group. A return of NULL signifies an error. Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.
Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail. This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return ERR_PTR() values. These errors are
bubbled up appropriately. NULL returns are changed to -ENOMEM for
compatibility.
Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.
This is a rework of reverted commit 11c3b79218390a139f2d474ee1e983a672d5839a.

Current IRQ affinity interface does not provide a way to set affinity
for the IRQs that will be allocated/activated in the future.
This patch creates /proc/irq/default_smp_affinity that lets users set
default affinity mask for the newly allocated IRQs. Changing the default
does not affect affinity masks for the currently active IRQs, they
have to be changed explicitly.
Updated based on Paul J's comments and added some more documentation.

I can't think of any valid reason for ext4 to not use barriers when
they are available; I believe this is necessary for filesystem
integrity in the face of a volatile write cache on storage.
An administrator who trusts that the cache is sufficiently battery-
backed (and power supplies are sufficiently redundant, etc...)
can always turn it back off again.

And with that last patch to affs killing the last put_inode instance we
can finally, after many years of transition kill this racy and awkward

(It's kinda funny that even the description in

Also remove a very misleading comment above the defintion of
struct super_operations.

Normally utime(2) checks current process is owner of the file, or it
has CAP_FOWNER capability. But FAT filesystem doesn't have uid/gid as
on disk info, so normal check is too unflexible.
With this option you can relax it.

[mszeredi@suse.cz] rewrite and split big patch into managable chunks
/proc/mounts in its current form lacks important information:
- propagation state
- root of mount for bind mounts
- the st_dev value used within the filesystem
- identifier for each mount and it's parent
It also suffers from the following problems:
- not easily extendable
- ambiguity of mountpoints within a chrooted environment
- doesn't distinguish between filesystem dependent and independent options
- doesn't distinguish between per mount and per super block options
This patch introduces /proc/<pid>/mountinfo which attempts to address
all these deficiencies.
Code shared between /proc/<pid>/mounts and /proc/<pid>/mountinfo is
extracted into separate functions.
Thanks to Al Viro for the help in getting the design right.

Requiring userspace to close and re-open sysfs attributes has been the
policy since before 2.6.12. It allows userspace to get a consistent
snapshot of kernel state and consume it with incremental reads and seeks.
Now, if the file position is zero the kernel assumes userspace wants to see
the new value. The application for this change is to allow a userspace
RAID metadata handler to check the state of an array without causing any
memory allocations. Thus not causing writeback to a raid array that might
be blocked waiting for userspace to take action.

This series addresses the problem of showing mount options in
/proc/mounts.
Several filesystems which use mount options, have not implemented a
.show_options superblock operation. Several others have implemented
this callback, but have not kept it fully up to date with the parsed
options.
Q: Why do we need correct option showing in /proc/mounts?
A: We want /proc/mounts to fully replace /etc/mtab. The reasons for
this are:
- unprivileged mounters won't be able to update /etc/mtab
- /etc/mtab doesn't work with private mount namespaces
- /etc/mtab can become out-of-sync with reality
Q: Can't this be done, so that filesystems need not bother with
implementing a .show_mounts callback, and keeping it up to date?
A: Only in some cases. Certain filesystems allow modification of a
subset of options in their remount_fs method. It is not possible
to take this into account without knowing exactly how the
filesystem handles options.
For the simple case (no remount or remount resets all options) the
patchset introduces two helpers:
generic_show_options()
save_mount_options()
These can also be used to emulate the old /etc/mtab behavior, until
proper support is added. Even if this is not 100% correct, it's still
better than showing no options at all.
The following patches fix up most in-tree filesystems, some have been
compile tested only, some have been reviewed and acked by the
maintainer.
