| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We cannot cancel delayed work from ocfs2_local_free_info because that is called with dqonoff_mutex held and the work it cancels requires dqonoff_mutex to finish.

| * | ocfs2: Use __dquot_transfer to avoid lock inversionJan Kara2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dquot_transfer() acquires own references to dquots via dqget(). Thus it waits for dq_lock which creates a lock inversion because dq_lock ranks above transaction start but transaction is already started in ocfs2_setattr(). Fix the problem by passing own references directly to __dquot_transfer. Acked-by: Joel Becker <Joel.Becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
| * | ocfs2: Fix NULL pointer deref when writing local dquotJan Kara2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit_dqblk() can write quota info to global file. That is actually a bad thing to do because if we are just modifying local quota file, we are not prepared (do not hold proper locks, do not have transaction credits) to do a modification of the global quota file. So do not use commit_dqblk() and instead call our writing function directly. Acked-by: Joel Becker <Joel.Becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
| * | ocfs2: Fix estimate of credits needed for quota allocationJan Kara2010-05-21

| * | ocfs2: Fix quota lockingJan Kara2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OCFS2 had three issues with quota locking: a) When reading dquot from global quota file, we started a transaction while holding dqio_mutex which is prone to deadlocks because other paths do it the other way around b) During ocfs2_sync_dquot we were not protected against concurrent writers on the same node. Because we first copy data to local buffer, a race could happen resulting in old data being written to global quota file and thus causing quota inconsistency after a crash. c) ip_alloc_sem of quota files was acquired while a transaction is started in ocfs2_quota_write which can deadlock because we first get ip_alloc_sem and then start a transaction when extending quota files. We fix the problem a) by pulling all necessary code to ocfs2_acquire_dquot and ocfs2_release_dquot. Thus we no longer depend on generic dquot_acquire to do the locking and can force proper lock ordering. Problems b) and c) are fixed by locking i_mutex and ip_alloc_sem of global quota file in ocfs2_lock_global_qf and removing ip_alloc_sem from ocfs2_quota_read and ocfs2_quota_write.

| * | ocfs2: Avoid unnecessary block mapping when refreshing quota infoJan Kara2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The position of global quota file info does not change. So we do not have to do logical -> physical block translation every time we reread it from disk. Thus we can also avoid taking ip_alloc_sem.

| * | ocfs2: Do not map blocks from local quota file on each writeJan Kara2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no need to map offset of local dquot structure to on disk block in each quota write. It is enough to map it just once and store the physical block number in quota structure in memory. Moreover this simplifies locking as we do not have to take ip_alloc_sem from quota write path.

| * | quota: Refactor dquot_transfer code so that OCFS2 can pass in its referencesJan Kara2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, __dquot_transfer() acquires its own references of dquot structures that will be put into inode. But for OCFS2, this creates a lock inversion between dq_lock (waited on in dqget) and transaction start (started in ocfs2_setattr). Currently, deadlock is impossible because dq_lock is acquired only during dquot_acquire and dquot_release and we already hold a reference to dquot structures in ocfs2_setattr so neither of these functions can be called while we call dquot_transfer. But this is rather subtle and it is hard to teach lockdep about it. So provide __dquot_transfer function that can be passed dquot references directly. OCFS2 can then pass acquired dquot references directly to __dquot_transfer with proper locking. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Quota must being initialized if size or uid/git changes requested. But initialization performed in two different places: in case of i_size file system is responsible for dquot init , but in case of uid/gid init will be called internally in dquot_transfer().

| * | ext3: make barrier options consistent with ext4Eric Sandeen2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ext4 was updated to accept barrier/nobarrier mount options in addition to the older barrier=0/1. The barrier story is complex enough, we should help people by making the options the same at least, even if the defaults are different. This patch allows the barrier/nobarrier mount options for ext3, while keeping nobarrier the default. It also unconditionally displays barrier status in show_options, and prints a message at mount time if barriers are not enabled, just as ext4 does.

| * | BKL: Remove BKL from ext2 filesystemJan Blunck2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The BKL is still used in ext2_put_super(), ext2_fill_super(), ext2_sync_fs() ext2_remount() and ext2_write_inode(). From these calls ext2_put_super(), ext2_fill_super() and ext2_remount() are protected against each other by the struct super_block s_umount rw semaphore. The call in ext2_write_inode() could only protect the modification of the ext2_sb_info through ext2_update_dynamic_rev() against concurrent ext2_sync_fs() or ext2_remount(). ext2_fill_super() and ext2_put_super() can be left out because you need a valid filesystem reference in all three cases, which you do not have when you are one of these functions. If the BKL is only protecting the modification of the ext2_sb_info it can safely be removed since this is protected by the struct ext2_sb_info s_lock.

For now just delete the unnecessary check to see if a superblock is in the middle of an unmount, it isn't necessary with or without Al's changes and it just causes a needless conflict.

So I need sysfs_delete_link which is passed the target of the symlink to delete. sysfs_rename_link is updated to call sysfs_delete_link instead of sysfs_remove_link as we have all of the information necessary and the callers are interesting. Both of these functions now have enough information to find a symlink in a tagged directory. The only restriction is that they must be called before the target kobject is renamed or deleted. If they are called later I loose track of which tag the target kobject was marked with and can no longer find the old symlink to remove it. This patch was split from an earlier patch.

* | | sysfs: Implement sysfs tagged directory support.Eric W. Biederman2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem. When implementing a network namespace I need to be able to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this is a problem for /sys/class/net/*, /sys/devices/virtual/net/*, and potentially a few other directories of the form /sys/ ... /net/*. What this patch does is to add an additional tag field to the sysfs dirent structure. For directories that should show different contents depending on the context such as /sys/class/net/, and /sys/devices/virtual/net/ this tag field is used to specify the context in which those directories should be visible. Effectively this is the same as creating multiple distinct directories with the same name but internally to sysfs the result is nicer. I am calling the concept of a single directory that looks like multiple directories all at the same path in the filesystem tagged directories. For the networking namespace the set of directories whose contents I need to filter with tags can depend on the presence or absence of hotplug hardware or which modules are currently loaded. Which means I need a simple race free way to setup those directories as tagged. To achieve a reace free design all tagged directories are created and managed by sysfs itself. Users of this interface: - define a type in the sysfs_tag_type enumeration. - call sysfs_register_ns_types with the type and it's operations - sysfs_exit_ns when an individual tag is no longer valid - Implement mount_ns() which returns the ns of the calling process so we can attach it to a sysfs superblock. - Implement ktype.namespace() which returns the ns of a syfs kobject. Everything else is left up to sysfs and the driver layer. For the network namespace mount_ns and namespace() are essentially one line functions, and look to remain that. Tags are currently represented a const void * pointers as that is both generic, prevides enough information for equality comparisons, and is trivial to create for current users, as it is just the existing namespace pointer. The work needed in sysfs is more extensive. At each directory or symlink creating I need to check if the directory it is being created in is a tagged directory and if so generate the appropriate tag to place on the sysfs_dirent. Likewise at each symlink or directory removal I need to check if the sysfs directory it is being removed from is a tagged directory and if so figure out which tag goes along with the name I am deleting. Currently only directories which hold kobjects, and symlinks are supported. There is not enough information in the current file attribute interfaces to give us anything to discriminate on which makes it useless, and there are no potential users which makes it an uninteresting problem to solve.

| * | nilfs2: disallow remount of snapshot from/to a regular mountRyusuke Konishi2010-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Snapshots and regular ro/rw mounts are essentially-different within the meaning whether the checkpoint is static or not and is marked with a snapshot flag or not. The current implemenation, however, allows to remount a snapshot to a regular rw-mount if the checkpoint number equals the latest one. This transition is actually impossible since changing a checkpoint to a snapshot makes another checkpoint, thus the condition is never satisfied. This fixes the weird state of affairs, and specifically separates snapshots and regular rw/ro-mounts. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces uses of new_encode_dev/new_decode_dev with their 64-bit counterparts, huge_encode_dev/huge_decode_dev respectively.

| * | nilfs2: add missing initialization of s_modeRyusuke Konishi2010-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An fmode_t argument is passed to kill_block_super() through s_mode member of the super_block structure. This is used to release the block device with the same mode, however, nilfs does not set s_mode anywhere. This modifies nilfs_get_sb function to properly initialize the s_mode member.
