| | * | ceph: check mapping to determine if FILE_CACHE cap is usedSage Weil2010-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | See if the i_data mapping has any pages to determine if the FILE_CACHE capability is currently in use, instead of assuming it is any time the rdcache_gen value is set (i.e., issued -> used). This allows the MDS RECALL_STATE process work for inodes that have cached pages. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
| | * | ceph: only send one flushsnap per cap_snap per mds sessionSage Weil2010-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sending multiple flushsnap messages is problematic because we ignore the response if the tid doesn't match, and the server may only respond to each one once. It's also a waste. So, skip cap_snaps that are already on the flushing list, unless the caller tells us to resend (because we are reconnecting). Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
| | * | ceph: fix cap_snap and realm splitSage Weil2010-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cap_snap creation/queueing relies on both the current i_head_snapc _and_ the i_snap_realm pointers being correct, so that the new cap_snap can properly reference the old context and the new i_head_snapc can be updated to reference the new snaprealm's context. To fix this, we: - move inodes completely to the new (split) realm so that i_snap_realm is correct, and - generate the new snapc's _before_ queueing the cap_snaps in ceph_update_snap_trace().

| | * | ceph: fix dn offset during readdir_prepopulateSage Weil2010-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When adding the readdir results to the cache, ceph_set_dentry_offset was clobbered our just-set offset. This can cause the readdir result offsets to get out of sync with the server. Add an argument to the helper so that it does not. This bug was introduced by 1cd3935bedccf592d44343890251452a6dd74fc4.

This is reproduced by something as simple as mount -t ceph monhost:/a/b mnt mount -t ceph monhost:/a mnt2 ls mnt2 A splice_dentry() would kill the old 'b' inode's root dentry, and we'd crash while releasing it. Fix by checking for both the ROOT and NULL cases explicitly. We only need to invalidate the parent dir when we have a correct parent to invalidate. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

It first does a search for an existing SMB session. If it finds one, it'll put the server reference and then try to ensure that the negprot is done, etc. If it encounters an error at that point then it'll return an error. There's a potential problem here though. When cifs_get_smb_ses returns an error, the caller will also put the TCP server reference leading to a double-put. Fix this by having cifs_get_smb_ses only put the server reference if it found an existing session that it could use and isn't returning an error.

"file" exists / existed, the client has read / written it, but it has already closed it. user_path(pathname, &path) looks up "file" successfully in the directory-cache and restarts the aging timer of the directory-entry. Even if "file" has already been removed from the server, because the lookupcache=positive option I use, keeps the entries valid for a while. nfs_statfs() returns ESTALE if "file" has already been removed from the server. If the user application repeats the statfs("file", &buff) call, we are stuck: "file" remains young forever in the directory-cache.

This is wrong as we will almost always have other structures with pointers to the TCP_Server_Info. If the main loop breaks under any other condition other than tcpStatus == CifsExiting, then it'll face a use-after-free situation. I don't see any reason to treat a CifsNew tcpStatus differently than CifsGood. I believe we'll still want to attempt to reconnect in either case. What should happen in those situations is that the MIDs get marked as MID_RETRY_NEEDED. This will make CIFSSMBNegotiate return -EAGAIN, and then the caller can retry the whole thing on a newly reconnected socket. If that fails again in the same way, the caller of cifs_get_smb_ses should tear down the TCP_Server_Info struct.

Much of the existing code in cifs assumes that when there is a cisfSesInfo struct, that it holds a reference to a valid TCP_Server_Info struct. We can never allow cifsd to exit when a cifsSesInfo struct is still holding a reference to the server. The server pointers will then point to freed memory. This patch eliminates a couple of questionable conditions where it does this. The idea here is to make an -EINTR return from kernel_recvmsg behave the same way as -ERESTARTSYS or -EAGAIN. If the task was signalled from cifs_put_tcp_session, then tcpStatus will be CifsExiting, and the kernel_recvmsg call will return quickly. There's also another condition where this can occur too -- if the tcpStatus is still in CifsNew, then it will also exit if the server closes the socket prematurely. I think we'll probably also need to fix that situation, but that requires a bit more consideration. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

This has caused severe livelocks under heavy parallel create workloads because the log IO completions have been getting held up behind metadata IO completions. Hence log commits would stall, memory allocation would stall because pages could not be cleaned, and lock contention on the AIL during inode IO completion processing was being seen to slow everything down even further. By making the log Io completion workqueue a high priority workqueue, they are queued ahead of all data/metadata IO completions and processed before the data/metadata completions. Hence the log never gets stalled, and operations needed to clean memory can continue as quickly as possible. This avoids the livelock conditions and allos the system to keep running under heavy load as per normal.

It runs uninterruptibly to count and copy all the strings. This change makes it abort the exec quickly if sent a SIGKILL. Note that this is the conservative change, to interrupt only for SIGKILL, by using fatal_signal_pending(). It would be perfectly correct semantics to let any signal interrupt the string-copying in execve, i.e. use signal_pending() instead of fatal_signal_pending(). We'll save that change for later, since it could have user-visible consequences, such as having a timer set too quickly make it so that an execve can never complete, though it always happened to work before.

There is already a preemption point in the count() loop, so this doesn't add any new points in the abstract sense. When the total argument+environment strings are very large, the time spent copying them can be much more than a normal user time slice. So this change improves the interactivity of the rest of the system when one process is doing an execve with very large arguments.

When it is unworkably large, shift_arg_pages() hits its BUG_ON. This is exploitable with a very large RLIMIT_STACK limit, to create a crash pretty easily. Check that the initial stack is not too large to make it possible to map in any executable. We're not checking that the actual executable (or intepreter, for binfmt_elf) will fit. So those mappings might clobber part of the initial stack mapping. But that is just userland lossage that userland made happen, not a kernel problem.

As 32bit binaries are now matched by binfmt_elf before bindmt_misc kicks in, the wrapper is ignored. The fix increases precedence of binfmt_misc to the original state.
