* [PATCH] autofs4: pending flag not cleared on mount failIan Kent2006-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | During testing I've found that the mount pending flag can be left set at exit from autofs4_lookup after a failed mount request. This shouldn't be allowed to happen and causes incorrect error returns.

* [PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structureTheodore Ts'o2006-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function. Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect) values for i_blksize.

* [PATCH] autofs4 needs to force fail return revalidateIan Kent2006-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a long time now I have had a problem with not being able to return a lookup failure on an existsing directory. In autofs this corresponds to a mount failure on a autofs managed mount entry that is browsable (and so the mount point directory exists). While this problem has been present for a long time I've avoided resolving it because it was not very visible. But now that autofs v5 has "mount and expire on demand" of nested multiple mounts, such as is found when mounting an export list from a server, solving the problem cannot be avoided any longer. I've tried very hard to find a way to do this entirely within the autofs4 module but have not been able to find a satisfactory way to achieve it. So, I need to propose a change to the VFS.

* [PATCH] autofs4: zero timeout prevents shutdownIan Kent2006-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the timeout of an autofs mount is set to zero then umounts are disabled. This works fine, however the kernel module checks the expire timeout and goes no further if it is zero. This is not the right thing to do at shutdown as the module is passed an option to expire mounts regardless of their timeout setting. This patch allows autofs to honor the force expire option.

* [PATCH] autofs4: need to invalidate children on tree mount expireIan Kent2006-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've found a case where invalid dentrys in a mount tree, waiting to be cleaned up by d_invalidate, prevent the expected expire. In this case dentrys created during a lookup for which a mount fails or has no entry in the mount map contribute to the d_count of the parent dentry. These dentrys may not be invalidated prior to comparing the interanl usage count of valid autofs dentrys against the dentry d_count which makes a mount tree appear busy so it doesn't expire.

* [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mountDavid Howells2006-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint. The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt() which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour). The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the superblock pointer. This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root and mnt_sb would be set directly. The patch also makes the following changes: (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change very little. (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb(). (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon(). This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root, and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in dentries being left unculled. However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries with child trees. [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree. (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

* [PATCH] autofs4: NFY_NONE wait race fixIan Kent2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes two problems. First, the comparison of entries in the waitq.c was incorrect. Second, the NFY_NONE check was incorrect. The test of whether the dentry is mounted if ineffective, for example, if an expire fails then we could wait forever on a non existant expire. The bug was identified by Jeff Moyer. The patch changes autofs4 to wait on expires only as this is all that's needed. If there is no existing wait when autofs4_wait is call with a type of NFY_NONE it delays until either a wait appears or the the expire flag is cleared.

* [PATCH] autofs4: expire mounts that hold no (extra) references onlyIan Kent2006-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Alter the expire semantics that define how "busyness" is determined. Currently a last_used counter is updated on every revalidate from processes other than the mount owner process group. This patch changes that so that an expire candidate is busy only if it has a reference count greater than the expected minimum, such as when there is an open file or working directory in use. This method is the only way that busyness can be established for direct mounts within the new implementation. For consistency the expire semantic is made the same for all mounts. A side effect of the patch is that mounts which remain mounted unessessarily in the presence of some GUI programs that scan the filesystem should now expire.

* [PATCH] autofs4: fix false negative return from expireIan Kent2006-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the case where an expire returns busy on a tree mount when it is in fact not busy. This case was overlooked when the patch to prevent the expiring away of "scaffolding" directories for tree mounts was applied. The problem arises when a tree of mounts is a member of a map with other keys. The current logic will not expire the tree if any other mount in the map is busy. The solution is to maintain a "minimum" use count for each autofs dentry and compare this to the actual dentry usage count during expire.

* [PATCH] autofs4: can't mount due to mount point dir not emptyIan Kent2006-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Addresse a problem where stale dentrys stop mounts from happening. When a mount point directory is pre-created and a non-existent entry within it is requested a dentry ends up being created within the mount point directory which stops future mounts. The problem is solved by ignoring negative, unhashed dentrys in the mount point d_subdirs list. Additionally the apparent cacheing of -ENOENT returns from requests is removed. The test on d_time is a tautology and d_time is not initialised and has an unexpected value. In short it doesn't do what it's meant to. The cacheing of failed requests to the daemon is important and will be followed up later.

* [PATCH] shrink dentry structEric Dumazet2006-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some long time ago, dentry struct was carefully tuned so that on 32 bits UP, sizeof(struct dentry) was exactly 128, ie a power of 2, and a multiple of memory cache lines. Then RCU was added and dentry struct enlarged by two pointers, with nice results for SMP, but not so good on UP, because breaking the above tuning (128 + 8 = 136 bytes) This patch reverts this unwanted side effect, by using an union (d_u), where d_rcu and d_child are placed so that these two fields can share their memory needs. At the time d_free() is called (and d_rcu is really used), d_child is known to be empty and not touched by the dentry freeing. Lockless lookups only access d_name, d_parent, d_lock, d_op, d_flags (so the previous content of d_child is not needed if said dentry was unhashed but still accessed by a CPU because of RCU constraints) As dentry cache easily contains millions of entries, a size reduction is worth the extra complexity of the ugly C union.

* [PATCH] autofs4: bad lookup fixIan Kent2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For browsable autofs maps, a mount request that arrives at the same time an expire is happening can fail to perform the needed mount. This happens becuase the directory exists and so the revalidate succeeds when we need it to fail so that lookup is called on the same dentry to do the mount. Instead lookup is called on the next path component which should be whithin the mount, but the parent isn't mounted. The solution is to allow the revalidate to continue and perform the mount as no directory creation (at mount time) is needed for browsable mount entries.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
