| * Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}Jan Blunck2008-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata. Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

| * iget: stop CIFS from using iget() and read_inode()David Howells2008-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stop the CIFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace cifs_read_inode() with cifs_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). cifs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error. cifs_read_super() now returns any error incurred when getting the root inode instead of ENOMEM. cifs_iget() needs examining. The comment "can not call macro FreeXid here since in a void func" is no longer true.

* | [CIFS] fixup prefixpaths which contain multiple path componentsSteve French2008-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when we get a prefixpath as part of mount, the kernel only changes the first character to be a '/' or '\' depending on whether posix extensions are enabled. This is problematic as it expects mount.cifs to pass in the correct delimiter in the rest of the prefixpath. But, mount.cifs may not know *what* the correct delimiter is. It's a chicken and egg problem. Note that mount.cifs should not do conversion of the prefixpath - if we want posix behavior then '\' is legal in a path (and we have had bugs in the distant path to prove to me that customers sometimes have apps that require '\'). The kernel code assumes that the path passed in is posix (and current code will handle the first path component fine but was broken for Windows mounts for "deep" prefixpaths unless the user specified a prefixpath with '\' deep in it. So e.g. with current kernel code: 1) mount to //server/share/dir1 will work to all server types 2) mount to //server/share/dir1/subdir1 will work to Samba 3) mount to //server/share/dir1\\subdir1 will work to Windows But case two would fail to Windows without the fix. With the kernel cifs module fix case two now works.

| * Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_userChristoph Lameter2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2) Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and makes code clearer. zero_user_segment(page, start, end) Same for a single segment. zero_user(page, start, length) Length variant for the case where we know the length. We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues: 1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable. 2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM. Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code. Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other functions defined in highmem.h. Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these functions are called. Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

* [CIFS] redo existing session setup if needed in cifs_mountJeff Layton2007-12-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cifs_mount finds an existing SMB session that it can use for a new mount, it does not check to see whether that session is in need of being reconnected. An easy way to reproduce: 1) mount //server/share1 2) watch /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData for the share to go DISCONNECTED 3) mount //server/share2 with same creds as in step 1. The second mount will fail because CIFSTCon returned -EAGAIN. If you do an operation in share1 and then reattempt the mount it will work (since the session is reestablished). The following patch fixes this by having cifs_mount check the status of the session when it picks an existing session and calling cifs_setup_session on it again if it's in need of reconnection.

* [CIFS] Fix potential data corruption when writing out cached dirty pagesJeff Layton2007-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix RedHat bug 329431 The idea here is separate "conscious" from "unconscious" flushes. Conscious flushes are those due to a fsync() or close(). Unconscious ones are flushes that occur as a side effect of some other operation or due to memory pressure. Currently, when an error occurs during an unconscious flush (ENOSPC or EIO), we toss out the page and don't preserve that error to report to the user when a conscious flush occurs. If after the unconscious flush, there are no more dirty pages for the inode, the conscious flush will simply return success even though there were previous errors when writing out pages. This can lead to data corruption. The easiest way to reproduce this is to mount up a CIFS share that's very close to being full or where the user is very close to quota. mv a file to the share that's slightly larger than the quota allows. The writes will all succeed (since they go to pagecache). The mv will do a setattr to set the new file's attributes. This calls filemap_write_and_wait, which will return an error since all of the pages can't be written out. Then later, when the flush and release ops occur, there are no more dirty pages in pagecache for the file and those operations return 0. mv then assumes that the file was written out correctly and deletes the original. CIFS already has a write_behind_rc variable where it stores the results from earlier flushes, but that value is only reported in cifs_close. Since the VFS ignores the return value from the release operation, this isn't helpful. We should be reporting this error during the flush operation. This patch does the following: 1) changes cifs_fsync to use filemap_write_and_wait and cifs_flush and also sync to check its return code. If it returns successful, they then check the value of write_behind_rc to see if an earlier flush had reported any errors. If so, they return that error and clear write_behind_rc. 2) sets write_behind_rc in a few other places where pages are written out as a side effect of other operations and the code waits on them. 3) changes cifs_setattr to only call filemap_write_and_wait for ATTR_SIZE changes. 4) makes cifs_writepages accurately distinguish between EIO and ENOSPC errors when writing out pages. Some simple testing indicates that the patch works as expected and that it fixes the reproduceable known problem.

| * [CIFS] fix oops on second mount to same server when null auth is usedJeff Layton2007-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a share is mounted using no username, cifs_mount sets volume_info.username as a NULL pointer, and the sesInfo userName as an empty string. The volume_info.username is passed to a couple of other functions to see if there is an existing unc or tcp connection that can be used. These functions assume that the username will be a valid string that can be passed to strncmp. If the pointer is NULL, then the kernel will oops if there's an existing session to which the string can be compared. This patch changes cifs_mount to set volume_info.username to an empty string in this situation, which prevents the oops and should make it so that the comparison to other null auth sessions match.
