* autofs4: fix lookup deadlockIan Kent2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A deadlock can occur when user space uses a signal (autofs version 4 uses SIGCHLD for this) to effect expire completion. The order of events is: Expire process completes, but before being able to send SIGCHLD to it's parent ... Another process walks onto a different mount point and drops the directory inode semaphore prior to sending the request to the daemon as it must ... A third process does an lstat on on the expired mount point causing it to wait on expire completion (unfortunately) holding the directory semaphore. The mount request then arrives at the daemon which does an lstat and, deadlock. For some time I was concerned about releasing the directory semaphore around the expire wait in autofs4_lookup as well as for the mount call back. I finally realized that the last round of changes in this function made the expiring dentry and the lookup dentry separate and distinct so the check and possible wait can be done anywhere prior to the mount call back. This patch moves the check to just before the mount call back and inside the directory inode mutex release.

* eventfd: improve support for semaphore-like behaviorDavide Libenzi2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | People started using eventfd in a semaphore-like way where before they were using pipes. That is, counter-based resource access. Where a "wait()" returns immediately by decrementing the counter by one, if counter is greater than zero. Otherwise will wait. And where a "post(count)" will add count to the counter releasing the appropriate amount of waiters. If eventfd the "post" (write) part is fine, while the "wait" (read) does not dequeue 1, but the whole counter value. The problem with eventfd is that a read() on the fd returns and wipes the whole counter, making the use of it as semaphore a little bit more cumbersome. You can do a read() followed by a write() of COUNTER-1, but IMO it's pretty easy and cheap to make this work w/out extra steps. This patch introduces a new eventfd flag that tells eventfd to only dequeue 1 from the counter, allowing simple read/write to make it behave like a semaphore. Simple test here: http://www.xmailserver.org/eventfd-sem.c To be back-compatible with earlier kernels, userspace applications should probe for the availability of this feature via #ifdef EFD_SEMAPHORE fd = eventfd2 (CNT, EFD_SEMAPHORE); if (fd == -1 && errno == EINVAL) <fallback> #else <fallback> #endif Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: <linux-api@vger.kernel.org> Tested-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* epoll: clean up ep_modifyTony Battersby2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ep_modify() doesn't need to set event.data from within the ep->lock spinlock as the comment suggests. The only place event.data is used is ep_send_events_proc(), and this is protected by ep->mtx instead of ep->lock. Also update the comment for mutex_lock() at the top of ep_scan_ready_list(), which mentions epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL) but not epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_MOD). ep_modify() can also use spin_lock_irq() instead of spin_lock_irqsave().

* epoll: remove unnecessary xchgTony Battersby2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xchg in ep_unregister_pollwait() is unnecessary because it is protected by either epmutex or ep->mtx (the same protection as ep_remove()). If xchg was necessary, it would be insufficient to protect against problems: if multiple concurrent calls to ep_unregister_pollwait() were possible then a second caller that returns without doing anything because nwait == 0 could return before the waitqueues are removed by the first caller, which looks like it could lead to problematic races with ep_poll_callback(). So remove xchg and add comments about the locking.

* epoll: remember the event if epoll_wait returns -EFAULTTony Battersby2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If epoll_wait returns -EFAULT, the event that was being returned when the fault was encountered will be forgotten. This is not a big deal since EFAULT will happen only if a buggy userspace program passes in a bad address, in which case what happens later usually doesn't matter. However, it is easy to remember the event for later, and this patch makes a simple change to do that.

The bug shows up if you add an epoll fd inside another fd container (poll, select, epoll). The problem is that callback-based wake ups used by epoll does not carry (patches will follow, to fix this) any information about the events that actually happened. So the callback code, since it can't call the file* ->poll() inside the callback, chains the file* into a ready-list. So, suppose you added an fd with EPOLLOUT only, and some data shows up on the fd, the file* mapped by the fd will be added into the ready-list (via wakeup callback). During normal epoll_wait() use, this condition is sorted out at the time we're actually able to call the file*'s f_op->poll(). Inside the old epoll's f_op->poll() though, only a quick check !list_empty(ready-list) was performed, and this could have led to reporting POLLIN even though no ready fds would show up at a following epoll_wait(). In order to correctly report the ready status for an epoll fd, the ready-list must be checked to see if any really available fd+event would be ready in a following epoll_wait(). Operation (calling f_op->poll() from inside f_op->poll()) that, like wake ups, must be handled with care because of the fact that epoll fds can be added to other epoll fds.

* filesystem freeze: allow SysRq emergency thaw to thaw frozen filesystemsEric Sandeen2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the filesystem freeze operation has been elevated to the VFS, and is just an ioctl away, some sort of safety net for unintentionally frozen root filesystems may be in order. The timeout thaw originally proposed did not get merged, but perhaps something like this would be useful in emergencies. For example, freeze /path/to/mountpoint may freeze your root filesystem if you forgot that you had that unmounted. I chose 'j' as the last remaining character other than 'h' which is sort of reserved for help (because help is generated on any unknown character). I've tested this on a non-root fs with multiple (nested) freezers, as well as on a system rendered unresponsive due to a frozen root fs.

This can lead to unnecessary reclaim of pages that are unusable by the caller and int the worst case lead to allocation failure as progress was not been make where it is needed.

* fs: fix page_mkwrite error cases in core code and btrfsNick Piggin2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | page_mkwrite is called with neither the page lock nor the ptl held. This means a page can be concurrently truncated or invalidated out from underneath it. Callers are supposed to prevent truncate races themselves, however previously the only thing they can do in case they hit one is to raise a SIGBUS. A sigbus is wrong for the case that the page has been invalidated or truncated within i_size (eg. hole punched). Callers may also have to perform memory allocations in this path, where again, SIGBUS would be wrong. The previous patch ("mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault") made it possible to properly specify errors. Convert the generic buffer.c code and btrfs to return sane error values (in the case of page removed from pagecache, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE will cause the fault handler to exit without doing anything, and the fault will be retried properly). This fixes core code, and converts btrfs as a template/example. All other filesystems defining their own page_mkwrite should be fixed in a similar manner.

* mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match faultNick Piggin2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return VM_FAULT_xxx flags. There should be no functional change. This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to the VM (and also can provide more information eg. virtual_address to the driver, which might be important in some special cases). This is required for a subsequent fix. And will also make it easier to merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

* mm: fix SHM_HUGETLB to work with users in hugetlb_shm_groupRavikiran G Thirumalai2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix hugetlb subsystem so that non root users belonging to hugetlb_shm_group can actually allocate hugetlb backed shm. Currently non root users cannot even map one large page using SHM_HUGETLB when they belong to the gid in /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_shm_group. This is because allocation size is verified against RLIMIT_MEMLOCK resource limit even if the user belongs to hugetlb_shm_group. This patch 1. Fixes hugetlb subsystem so that users with CAP_IPC_LOCK and users belonging to hugetlb_shm_group don't need to be restricted with RLIMIT_MEMLOCK resource limits 2. This patch also disables mlock based rlimit checking (which will be reinstated and marked deprecated in a subsequent patch).

Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it.

Typically, the filldir function is something that modifies the file system, such as a chown or an inode deletion that also require reading of an inode associated with each direntry. Since the file system is modified, the path retained becomes invalid for the next run. In addition, it runs backwards in attempt to minimize activity. This is clearly suboptimal from a code cleanliness perspective as well as performance-wise. This patch implements a generic reiserfs_for_each_xattr that uses the generic readdir and a specific filldir routine that simply populates an array of dentries and then performs a specific operation on them. When all files have been operated on, it then calls the operation on the directory itself. The result is a noticable code reduction and better performance.

This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is twofold: * It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr write operations are initiated inside a transaction. * It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata. I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the generic struct xattr_handler. However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end. Update 7/26/07: Added missing dput() to deletion path. Update 8/30/07: Added missing mark_inode_dirty when i_mode is used to represent an ACL and no previous ACL existed.
