* Be more careful about marking buffers dirtyLinus Torvalds2008-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mikulas Patocka noted that the optimization where we check if a buffer was already dirty (and we avoid re-dirtying it) was not really SMP-safe. Since the read of the old status was not synchronized with anything, an aggressive CPU re-ordering of memory accesses might have moved that read up to before the data was even written to the buffer, and another CPU that cleaned it again, causing the newly dirty state to never actually hit the disk. Admittedly this would probably never trigger in practice, but it's still wrong. Mikulas sent a patch that fixed the problem, but I dislike the subtlety of the whole optimization, so this is an alternate fix that is more explicit about the particular SMP ordering for the optimization, and separates out the speculative reads of the buffer state into its own conditional (and makes the memory barrier only happen if we are likely to actually hit the optimized case in the first place). I considered removing the optimization entirely, but Andrew argued for it's continued existence. I'm a push-over.

* splice: use mapping_gfp_maskHugh Dickins2008-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | The loop block driver is careful to mask __GFP_IO|__GFP_FS out of its mapping_gfp_mask, to avoid hangs under memory pressure. But nowadays it uses splice, usually going through __generic_file_splice_read. That must use mapping_gfp_mask instead of GFP_KERNEL to avoid those hangs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Somebody had put struct nameidata in stack frame of link_path_walk(). Unfortunately, there are certain realities to deal with: * It's in the middle of recursion. Depth is equal to the nesting depth of symlinks, i.e. up to 8. * struct namiedata is, even if one discards the intent junk, at least 12 pointers + 5 ints. * moreover, adding a stack frame is not free in that situation. * there are fs methods called on top of that, and they also have stack footprint. * kernel stack is not infinite. The thing is, even if one chooses to deal with -ESTALE that way (and it's one hell of an overkill), the only thing that needs to be preserved is vfsmount + dentry, not the entire struct nameidata.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After several posts and bug reports regarding interaction with the NULL nameidata, here's a patch to clean up the mess with struct file in the reiserfs xattr code. As observed in several of the posts, there's really no need for struct file to exist in the xattr code. It was really only passed around due to the f_op->readdir() and a_ops->{prepare,commit}_write prototypes requiring it. reiserfs_prepare_write() and reiserfs_commit_write() don't actually use the struct file passed to it, and the xattr code uses a private version of reiserfs_readdir() to enumerate the xattr directories.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Shirish Pargaonkar noted: With cifsacl mount option, when a file is created on the Windows server, exclusive oplock is broken right away because the get cifs acl code again opens the file to obtain security descriptor. The client does not have the newly created file handle or inode in any of its lists yet so it does not respond to oplock break and server waits for its duration and then responds to the second open. This slows down file creation signficantly. The fix is to pass the file descriptor to the get cifsacl code wherever available so that get cifs acl code does not send second open (NT Create ANDX) and oplock is not broken.

This is due to the change of permissions of /proc/net that was introduced in that commit. Before: dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Mar 19 11:30 /proc/net After: dr-xr--r-- 5 root root 0 Mar 19 11:29 /proc/self/net This patch restores the permissions to the old value which makes ganglia happy again. Pavel Emelyanov says: This also broke the postfix, as it was reported in bug #10286 and described in detail by Benjamin.

In read path: call nfs_pageio_add_request from readpage_async_filler assume at this point that there are requests already in desc, that can't be merged with the current request. so nfs_pageio_doio is fired up to clear out desc. assume something goes wrong in setting up the io, so desc->pg_error is set. This causes nfs_pageio_add_request to return 0, *WITHOUT* adding the original request. BUT, since return code is ignored, readpage_async_filler assumes it has been added, and does nothing further, leaving page locked. do_generic_mapping_read will eventually call lock_page, resulting in deadlock In write path: page is marked dirty by generic_perform_write nfs_writepages is called call nfs_pageio_add_request from nfs_page_async_flush assume at this point that there are requests already in desc, that can't be merged with the current request. so nfs_pageio_doio is fired up to clear out desc. assume something goes wrong in setting up the io, so desc->pg_error is set. This causes nfs_page_async_flush to return 0, *WITHOUT* adding the original request, yet marking the request as locked (PG_BUSY) and in writeback, clearing dirty marks. The next time a write is done to the page, deadlock will result as nfs_write_end calls nfs_update_request Signed-off-by: Fred Isaman <iisaman@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

This means the positive success handling now flows straight through. (2) Rename the labels to be clearer about what they mean. Also make romfs_lookup()'s result variable of type long so as to avoid 32-bit/64-bit conversions with PTR_ERR() and friends. Based upon a report and patch from Adam Richter.
