* [PATCH] sysfs: reinstate exclusion between method calls and attribute ↵Alan Stern2007-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unregistration This patch (as869) reinstates the mutual exclusion between sysfs attribute method calls and attribute unregistration. The previously-reported deadlocks have been fixed, and this exclusion is by far the simplest way to avoid races during driver unbinding. The check for orphaned read-buffers has been moved down slightly, so that the remainder of a partially-read buffer will still be available to userspace even after the attribute has been unregistered.

* [PATCH] sysfs and driver core: add callback helper, used by SCSI and S390Alan Stern2007-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's context. This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to unregister themselves or their parent device. Attribute method calls are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be taken directly. Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The garbage collection thread is strictly an optimisation. Everything it does would also be done just-in-time in the context of something in userspace trying to access the file system. Sometimes, however, it's a pessimisation. Especially during early boot when it's checksumming nodes and scanning inodes which are shortly going to be pulled in by read_inode anyway. We end up building the rbtree of node coverage twice for the same inode. By switching to yield() instead of cond_resched() in the main loop, we observe boot times on the OLPC system going down from about 100 seconds to 60.

* | [GFS2] fix hangup when multiple processes are trying to write to the same fileJosef Whiter2007-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a problem I encountered while running bonnie++. When you have one thread that opens a file and starts to write to it, and then another thread that tries to open and write to the same file, the second thread will loop forever trying to grab the inode lock for that inode. Basically we come in through generic_buffered_file_write, which calls gfs2_prepare_write, which then attempts to grab the glock. Because we don't own the lock, gfs2_prepare_write gets GLR_TRYFAILED, which returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE to generic_buffered_file_write. At this point generic_buffered_file_write loops around again and immediately retries the prepare_write. This means that the second process never gets off of the processor in order to allow the process that holds the lock to finish its work and let go of the lock. This patch makes gfs2_glock_nq schedule() if it gets back a GLR_TRYFAILED, which resolves this problem.

When closing the device, | move it back to the virtual device tree. | Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> The simplest fix for this bug is to prevent sysfs_move_dir() from self-deadlocking when (old_parent == new_parent). This patch prevents total system lockup when using rfcomm devices.

* | [PATCH] ecryptfs: handle AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE betterDmitriy Monakhov2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - In fact we don't have to fail if AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE was returned from prepare_write or commit_write. It is beter to retry attempt where it is possible. - Rearange ecryptfs_get_lower_page() error handling logic, make it more clean.

* | [PATCH] ecryptfs: lower root result must be adirectoryDmitriy Monakhov2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Currently after path_lookup succeed we dot't have any guarantie what it is DIR. This must be explicitly demanded. - path_lookup can't return negative dentry, So inode check is useless.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | shmem's super_operations were missed from the recent const-ification; and simple_fill_super()'s, which can share with get_sb_pseudo()'s.
