* [PATCH] fs/partitions/check: add sysfs error handlingJeff Garzik2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Handle errors thrown in disk_sysfs_symlinks(), and propagate back to caller. The callers and associated functions don't do a real good job of handling kobject errors anyway (add_partition, register_disk, rescan_partitions), so this should do until something better comes along.

* [PATCH] Fix IO error reporting on fsync()Jan Kara2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When IO error happens on metadata buffer, buffer is freed from memory and later fsync() is called, filesystems like ext2 fail to report EIO. We solve the problem by introducing a pointer to associated address space into the buffer_head. When a buffer is removed from a list of metadata buffers associated with an address space, IO error is transferred from the buffer to the address space, so that fsync can later report it.

* [PATCH] knfsd: Allow lockd to drop replies as appropriateNeilBrown2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible for the ->fopen callback from lockd into nfsd to find that an answer cannot be given straight away (an upcall is needed) and so the request has to be 'dropped', to be retried later. That error status is not currently propagated back. So: Change nlm_fopen to return nlm error codes (rather than a private protocol) and define a new nlm_drop_reply code. Cause nlm_drop_reply to cause the rpc request to get rpc_drop_reply when this error comes back. Cause svc_process to drop a request which returns a status of rpc_drop_reply.

* [PATCH] knfsd: Fix bug in recent lockd patches that can cause reclaim to failNeilBrown2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an nfs server shuts down, lockd needs to release all the locks even though the client still holds them. It should therefore not 'unmonitor' the clients, so that the files in nfs/sm will still be there when the nfs server restarts, so that those clients will be told to reclaim their locks. However the hosts are fully unmonitored, so statd may well remove the files. lockd has a test for 'sm_sticky' and avoid the unmonitor call if it is set, but it is currently not set. So set it when tearing down lockd. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: fix owner-override on openJ. Bruce Fields2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a client creates a file using an open which sets the mode to 000, or if a chmod changes permissions after a file is opened, then situations may arise where an NFS client knows that some IO is permitted (because a process holds the file open), but the NFS server does not (because it doesn't know about the open, and only sees that the IO conflicts with the current mode of the file). As a hack to solve this problem, NFS servers normally allow the owner to override permissions on IO. The client can still enforce correct permissions-checking on open by performing an explicit access check. In NFSv4 the client can rely on the explicit on-the-wire open instead of an access check. Therefore we should not be allowing the owner to override permissions on an over-the-wire open! However, we should still allow the owner to override permissions in the case where the client is claiming an open that it already made either before a reboot, or while it was holding a delegation.

* [PATCH] fuse: fix dereferencing dentry parentMiklos Szeredi2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There's no locking for ->d_revalidate, so fuse_dentry_revalidate() should use dget_parent() instead of simply dereferencing ->d_parent. Due to topology changes in the directory tree the parent could become negative or be destroyed while being used. There hasn't been any reports about this yet.

* [PATCH] fuse: fix handling of moved directoryMiklos Szeredi2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fuse considered it an error (EIO) if lookup returned a directory inode, to which a dentry already refered. This is because directory aliases are not allowed. But in a network filesystem this could happen legitimately, if a directory is moved on a remote client. This patch attempts to relax the restriction by trying to first evict the offending alias from the cache. If this fails, it still returns an error (EBUSY). A rarer situation is if an mkdir races with an indenpendent lookup, which finds the newly created directory already moved. In this situation the mkdir should return success, but that would be incorrect, since the dentry cannot be instantiated, so return EBUSY. Previously checking for a directory alias and instantiation of the dentry weren't done atomically in lookup/mkdir, hence two such calls racing with each other could create aliased directories. To prevent this introduce a new per-connection mutex: fuse_conn->inst_mutex, which is taken for instantiations with a directory inode.

* [PATCH] fuse: fix spurious BUGMiklos Szeredi2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a spurious BUG in an unlikely race, where at least three parallel lookups return the same inode, but with different file type.

* [PATCH] fuse: fix hang on SMPMiklos Szeredi2006-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fuse didn't always call i_size_write() with i_mutex held which caused rare hangs on SMP/32bit. This bug has been present since fuse-2.2, well before being merged into mainline. The simplest solution is to protect i_size_write() with the per-connection spinlock. Using i_mutex for this purpose would require some restructuring of the code and I'm not even sure it's always safe to acquire i_mutex in all places i_size needs to be set. Since most of vmtruncate is already duplicated for other reasons, duplicate the remaining part as well, making all i_size_write() calls internal to fuse. Using i_size_write() was unnecessary in fuse_init_inode(), since this function is only called on a newly created locked inode. Reported by a few people over the years, but special thanks to Dana Henriksen who was persistent enough in helping me debug it.

* [PATCH] Fix core files so they make sense to gdb...Petr Vandrovec2006-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is silly to use non-static variable for writting zeroes to the file. And more seriously, foffset in core dump file dump function was incremented too much, so some parts of core dump were shifted by size of few phdrs and notes down, so although gdb was able to load that file, it did not make lot of sense - in my test case data pages were shifted down by about 900 bytes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The file based core dump code was broken by pipe changes - a relative llseek returns the absolute file position on success, not the relative one, so dump_seek() always failed when invoked with non-zero current position. Only success/failure can be tested with relative lseek, we have to trust kernel that on success we've got right file offset.
