* autofs4: fix string validation check orderIan Kent2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | In function validate_dev_ioctl() we check that the string we've been sent is a valid path.

* autofs4: make autofs type usage explicitIan Kent2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - the type assigned at mount when no type is given is changed from 0 to AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT. This was done because 0 and AUTOFS_TYPE_INDIRECT were being treated implicitly as the same type. - previously, an offset mount had it's type set to AUTOFS_TYPE_DIRECT|AUTOFS_TYPE_OFFSET but the mount control re-implementation needs to be able distinguish all three types. So this was changed to make the type setting explicit. - a type AUTOFS_TYPE_ANY was added for use by the re-implementation when checking if a given path is a mountpoint. It's not really a type as we use this to ask if a given path is a mountpoint in the autofs_dev_ioctl_ismountpoint() function. - functions to set and test the autofs mount types have been added to improve readability and make the type usage explicit. - the mount type is used from user space for the mount control re-implementtion so, for consistency, all the definitions have been moved to the user space include file include/linux/auto_fs4.h.

* eCryptfs: Filename Encryption: mount optionMichael Halcrow2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable mount-wide filename encryption by providing the Filename Encryption Key (FNEK) signature as a mount option. Note that the ecryptfs-utils userspace package versions 61 or later support this option. When mounting with ecryptfs-utils version 61 or later, the mount helper will detect the availability of the passphrase-based filename encryption in the kernel (via the eCryptfs sysfs handle) and query the user interactively as to whether or not he wants to enable the feature for the mount. If the user enables filename encryption, the mount helper will then prompt for the FNEK signature that the user wishes to use, suggesting by default the signature for the mount passphrase that the user has already entered for encrypting the file contents. When not using the mount helper, the user can specify the signature for the passphrase key with the ecryptfs_fnek_sig= mount option. This key must be available in the user's keyring. The mount helper usually takes care of this step. If, however, the user is not mounting with the mount helper, then he will need to enter the passphrase key into his keyring with some other utility prior to mounting, such as ecryptfs-manager.

* eCryptfs: Filename Encryption: Tag 70 packetsMichael Halcrow2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset implements filename encryption via a passphrase-derived mount-wide Filename Encryption Key (FNEK) specified as a mount parameter. Each encrypted filename has a fixed prefix indicating that eCryptfs should try to decrypt the filename. When eCryptfs encounters this prefix, it decodes the filename into a tag 70 packet and then decrypts the packet contents using the FNEK, setting the filename to the decrypted filename. Both unencrypted and encrypted filenames can reside in the same lower filesystem. Because filename encryption expands the length of the filename during the encoding stage, eCryptfs will not properly handle filenames that are already near the maximum filename length. In the present implementation, eCryptfs must be able to produce a match against the lower encrypted and encoded filename representation when given a plaintext filename. Therefore, two files having the same plaintext name will encrypt and encode into the same lower filename if they are both encrypted using the same FNEK. This can be changed by finding a way to replace the prepended bytes in the blocked-aligned filename with random characters; they are hashes of the FNEK right now, so that it is possible to deterministically map from a plaintext filename to an encrypted and encoded filename in the lower filesystem. An implementation using random characters will have to decode and decrypt every single directory entry in any given directory any time an event occurs wherein the VFS needs to determine whether a particular file exists in the lower directory and the decrypted and decoded filenames have not yet been extracted for that directory. Thanks to Tyler Hicks and David Kleikamp for assistance in the development of this patchset. This patch: A tag 70 packet contains a filename encrypted with a Filename Encryption Key (FNEK). This patch implements functions for writing and parsing tag 70 packets. This patch also adds definitions and extends structures to support filename encryption.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For NR_CPUS >= 16 values, FBC_BATCH is 2*NR_CPUS Considering more and more distros are using high NR_CPUS values, it makes sense to use a more sensible value for FBC_BATCH, and get rid of NR_CPUS. A sensible value is 2*num_online_cpus(), with a minimum value of 32 (This minimum value helps branch prediction in __percpu_counter_add()) We already have a hotcpu notifier, so we can adjust FBC_BATCH dynamically. We rename FBC_BATCH to percpu_counter_batch since its not a constant anymore. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Acked-by: David S.

* poll: allow f_op->poll to sleepTejun Heo2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | f_op->poll is the only vfs operation which is not allowed to sleep. It's because poll and select implementation used task state to synchronize against wake ups, which doesn't have to be the case anymore as wait/wake interface can now use custom wake up functions. The non-sleep restriction can be a bit tricky because ->poll is not called from an atomic context and the result of accidentally sleeping in ->poll only shows up as temporary busy looping when the timing is right or rather wrong. This patch converts poll/select to use custom wake up function and use separate triggered variable to synchronize against wake up events. The only added overhead is an extra function call during wake up and negligible. This patch removes the one non-sleep exception from vfs locking rules and is beneficial to userland filesystem implementations like FUSE, 9p or peculiar fs like spufs as it's very difficult for those to implement non-sleeping poll method. While at it, make the following cosmetic changes to make poll.h and select.c checkpatch friendly. * s/type * symbol/type *symbol/ : three places in poll.h * remove blank line before EXPORT_SYMBOL() : two places in select.c Oleg: spotted missing barrier in poll_schedule_timeout() Davide: spotted missing write barrier in pollwake() Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com> Cc: Ron Minnich <rminnich@sandia.gov> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Brad Boyer <flar@allandria.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Cc: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* fs: remove WB_SYNC_HOLDNick Piggin2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove WB_SYNC_HOLD. The primary motiviation is the design of my anti-starvation code for fsync. It requires taking an inode lock over the sync operation, so we could run into lock ordering problems with multiple inodes. It is possible to take a single global lock to solve the ordering problem, but then that would prevent a future nice implementation of "sync multiple inodes" based on lock order via inode address. Seems like a backward step to remove this, but actually it is busted anyway: we can't use the inode lists for data integrity wait: an inode can be taken off the dirty lists but still be under writeback. In order to satisfy data integrity semantics, we should wait for it to finish writeback, but if we only search the dirty lists, we'll miss it. It would be possible to have a "writeback" list, for sys_sync, I suppose. But why complicate things by prematurely optimise? For unmounting, we could avoid the "livelock avoidance" code, which would be easier, but again premature IMO. Fixing the existing data integrity problem will come next.

* do_mpage_readpage(): don't submit lots of small bios on boundaryMiquel van Smoorenburg2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While tracing I/O patterns with blktrace (a great tool) a few weeks ago I identified a minor issue in fs/mpage.c As the comment above mpage_readpages() says, a fs's get_block function will set BH_Boundary when it maps a block just before a block for which extra I/O is required. Since get_block() can map a range of pages, for all these pages the BH_Boundary flag will be set. But we only need to push what I/O we have accumulated at the last block of this range. This makes do_mpage_readpage() send out the largest possible bio instead of a bunch of page-sized ones in the BH_Boundary case.

* mm: report the MMU pagesize in /proc/pid/smapsMel Gorman2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the kernel to back a VMA. This matches the size used by the MMU in the majority of cases. However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for the MMU on older processor. To distinguish, this patch reports MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.

* mm: report the pagesize backing a VMA in /proc/pid/smapsMel Gorman2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is useful to verify a hugepage-aware application is using the expected pagesizes for its memory regions. This patch creates an entry called KernelPageSize in /proc/pid/smaps that is the size of page used by the kernel to back a VMA. The entry is not called PageSize as it is possible the MMU uses a different size. This extension should not break any sensible parser that skips lines containing unrecognised information.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use ktime instead of jiffies for timestamping lkb's. Also stamp the time on every lkb whenever it's added to a resource queue, instead of just stamping locks subject to timeouts. This will allow us to use timestamps more widely for debugging all locks.

| * dlm: improve how bast mode handlingDavid Teigland2008-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lkb bastmode value is set in the context of processing the lock, and read by the dlm_astd thread. Because it's accessed in these two separate contexts, the writing/reading ought to be done under a lock. This is simple to do by setting it and reading it when the lkb is added to and removed from dlm_astd's callback list which is properly locked. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
| * dlm: remove extra blocking callback checkDavid Teigland2008-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Just before delivering a blocking callback (bast), the dlm_astd thread checks again that the granted mode of the lkb actually blocks the mode requested by the bast. The idea behind this was originally that the granted mode may have changed since the bast was queued, making the callback now unnecessary. Reasons for removing this extra check are: - dlm_astd doesn't lock the rsb before reading the lkb grmode, so it's not technically safe (this removes the long standing FIXME) - after running some tests, it doesn't appear the check ever actually eliminates a bast - delivering an unnecessary blocking callback isn't a bad thing and can happen anyway Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a one-liner to use cond_resched() rather than schedule() in the ast delivery loop. It should not be necessary to schedule every time, so this will save some cpu time while continuing to allow scheduling when required.
