* nfsd: treat all shutdown signals as equivalentJeff Layton2008-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | knfsd currently uses 2 signal masks when processing requests. A "loose" mask (SHUTDOWN_SIGS) that it uses when receiving network requests, and then a more "strict" mask (ALLOWED_SIGS, which is just SIGKILL) that it allows when doing the actual operation on the local storage. This is apparently unnecessarily complicated. The underlying filesystem should be able to sanely handle a signal in the middle of an operation. This patch removes the signal mask handling from knfsd altogether. When knfsd is started as a kthread, all signals are ignored. It then allows all of the signals in SHUTDOWN_SIGS. There's no need to set the mask as well. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
* nfsd: fix spurious EACCESS in reconnect_path()Neil Brown2008-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thanks to Frank Van Maarseveen for the original problem report: "A privileged process on an NFS client which drops privileges after using them to change the current working directory, will experience incorrect EACCES after an NFS server reboot. This problem can also occur after memory pressure on the server, particularly when the client side is quiet for some time." This occurs because the filehandle points to a directory whose parents are no longer in the dentry cache, and we're attempting to reconnect the directory to its parents without adequate permissions to perform lookups in the parent directories. We can therefore fix the problem by acquiring the necessary capabilities before attempting the reconnection. We do this only in the no_subtree_check case, since the documented behavior of the subtree_check export option requires the server to check that the user has lookup permissions on all parents. The subtree_check case still has a problem, since reconnect_path() unnecessarily requires both read and lookup permissions on all parent directories. However, a fix in that case would be more delicate, and use of subtree_check is already discouraged for other reasons.

* knfsd: nfsd: Handle ERESTARTSYS from syscalls.NeilBrown2008-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OCFS2 can return -ERESTARTSYS from write requests (and possibly elsewhere) if there is a signal pending. If nfsd is shutdown (by sending a signal to each thread) while there is still an IO load from the client, each thread could handle one last request with a signal pending. This can result in -ERESTARTSYS which is not understood by nfserrno() and so is reflected back to the client as nfserr_io aka -EIO. This is wrong. Instead, interpret ERESTARTSYS to mean "try again later" by returning nfserr_jukebox. The client will resend and - if the server is restarted - the write will (hopefully) be successful and everyone will be happy. The symptom that I narrowed down to this was: copy a large file via NFS to an OCFS2 filesystem, and restart the nfs server during the copy. The 'cp' might get an -EIO, and the file will be corrupted - presumably holes in the middle where writes appeared to fail. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.

* knfsd: clean up nfsd filesystem interfacesJeff Layton2008-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several of the nfsd filesystem interfaces allow changes to parameters that don't have any effect on a running nfsd service. They are only ever checked when nfsd is started. This patch fixes it so that changes to those procfiles return -EBUSY if nfsd is already running to make it clear that changes on the fly don't work. The patch should also close some relatively harmless races between changing the info in those interfaces and starting nfsd, since these variables are being moved under the protection of the nfsd_mutex. Finally, the nfsv4recoverydir file always returns -EINVAL if read. This patch fixes it to return the recoverydir path as expected. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

* nfsd: make nfs4xdr WRITEMEM safe against zero countBenny Halevy2008-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | WRITEMEM zeroes the last word in the destination buffer for padding purposes, but this must not be done if no bytes are to be copied, as it would result in zeroing of the word right before the array. The current implementation works since it's always called with non zero nbytes or it follows an encoding of the string (or opaque) length which, if equal to zero, can be overwritten with zero.

* ext4: mballoc fix mb_normalize_request algorithm for 1KB block size filesystemsValerie Clement2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case of inode preallocation, the number of blocks to allocate depends on the file size and it is calculated in ext4_mb_normalize_request(). Each group in the filesystem is then checked to find one that can be used for allocation; this is done in ext4_mb_good_group(). When a file bigger than 4MB is created, the requested number of blocks to preallocate, calculated by ext4_mb_normalize_request is 4096. However for a filesystem with 1KB block size, the maximum size of the block buddies used by the multiblock allocator is 2048, so none of groups in the filesystem satisfies the search criteria in ext4_mb_good_group(). Scanning all the filesystem groups impacts performance. This was demonstrated by using a freshly created, 70GB, 1k block filesystem, with caches dropped write before the test via /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches, and with the filesystem mounted with nodelalloc and nodealloc,nomballoc. The time to write an 8 megabyte file using "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/fo bs=8k count=1k conv=fsync" took 35.5091 seconds (236kB/s) with nodellaloc, and 0.233754 seconds (35.9 MB/s) with the nodelloc,nomballoc options. With a 1TB partition, it took several minutes to write 8MB! This patch modifies the algorithm in ext4_mb_normalize_group_request to calculate the number of blocks to allocate by taking into account the maximum size of free blocks chunks handled by the multiblock allocator. It has also been tested for filesystems with 2KB and 4KB block sizes to ensure that those cases don't regress.

There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dget(dentry->d_parent) --> dget_parent(dentry) unlock_parent() is racy and unnecessary. Replace single caller with unlock_dir(). There are several other suspect uses of ->d_parent in ecryptfs...

| * [CIFS] don't allow demultiplex thread to exit until kthread_stop is calledSteve French2008-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cifs_demultiplex_thread can exit under several conditions: 1) if it's signaled 2) if there's a problem with session setup 3) if kthread_stop is called on it The first two are problems. If kthread_stop is called on the thread, there is no guarantee that it will still be up. We need to have the thread stay up until kthread_stop is called on it. One option would be to not even try to tear things down until after kthread_stop is called. However, in the case where there is a problem setting up the session, there's no real reason to try continuing the loop. This patch allows the thread to clean up and prepare for exit under all three conditions, but it has the thread go to sleep until kthread_stop is called. This allows us to simplify the shutdown code somewhat since we can be reasonably sure that the thread won't exit after being signaled but before kthread_stop is called. It also removes the places where the thread itself set the tsk variable since it appeared that it could have a potential race where the thread might never be shut down.

| * [CIFS] when not using unix extensions, check for and set ATTR_READONLY on ↵Jeff Layton2008-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | create and mkdir When creating a directory on a CIFS share without POSIX extensions, and the given mode has no write bits set, set the ATTR_READONLY bit. When creating a file, set ATTR_READONLY if the create mode has no write bits set and we're not using unix extensions. There are some comments about this being problematic due to the VFS splitting creates into 2 parts. I'm not sure what that's actually talking about, but I'm assuming that it has something to do with how mknod is implemented. In the simple case where we have no unix extensions and we're just creating a regular file, there's no reason we can't set ATTR_READONLY.

| * [CIFS] add local struct inode pointer to cifs_setattrJeff Layton2008-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clean up cifs_setattr a bit by adding a local inode pointer, and changing all of the direntry->d_inode references to it. This also adds a bit of micro-optimization. d_inode shouldn't change over the life of this function, so we only need to dereference it once.
