2011-03-22mm: hugetlbfs: change remove_from_page_cacheMinchan Kim1-2/+1
This patch series changes remove_from_page_cache()'s page ref counting rule. Page cache ref count is decreased in delete_from_page_cache(). So we don't need to decrease the page reference in callers.

2011-03-22mm: add replace_page_cache_page() functionMiklos Szeredi1-6/+4
This function basically does: remove_from_page_cache(old); page_cache_release(old); add_to_page_cache_locked(new); Except it does this atomically, so there's no possibility for the "add" to fail because of a race. If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved from the old page to the new. This function is currently used by fuse to move pages into the page cache on read, instead of copying the page contents.

2011-03-21bfs: fix bitmap size argument to find_first_zero_bit()Akinobu Mita1-1/+1
The usage of find_first_zero_bit() in bfs_create() is wrong for two reasons. The bitmap size argument to find_first_zero_bit() is info->si_lasti but the correct bitmap size is info->si_lasti + 1 as info->si_lasti is the last valid index in info->si_imap bitmap. Another problem is that it is impossible to detect that info->si_imap bitmap is full because there is an off-by-one bug in the return value check for find_first_zero_bit(). If no zero bits exist in info->si_imap, find_first_zero_bit() returns info->si_lasti. But the check can't catch it due to the off-by-one.

2011-03-21introduce sys_syncfs to sync a single file systemSage Weil1-0/+24
It is frequently useful to sync a single file system, instead of all mounted file systems via sync(2): - On machines with many mounts, it is not at all uncommon for some of them to hang (e.g. unresponsive NFS server). sync(2) will get stuck on those and may never get to the one you do care about (e.g., /). - Some applications write lots of data to the file system and then want to make sure it is flushed to disk. Calling fsync(2) on each file introduces unnecessary ordering constraints that result in a large amount of sub-optimal writeback/flush/commit behavior by the file system. There are currently two ways (that I know of) to sync a single super_block: - BLKFLSBUF ioctl on the block device: That also invalidates the bdev mapping, which isn't usually desirable, and doesn't work for non-block file systems. - 'mount -o remount,rw' will call sync_filesystem as an artifact of the current implemention. Relying on this little-known side effect for something like data safety sounds foolish. Both of these approaches require root privileges, which some applications do not have (nor should they need?) given that sync(2) is an unprivileged operation. This patch introduces a new system call syncfs(2) that takes an fd and syncs only the file system it references. Maybe someday we can $ sync /some/path and not get sync: ignoring all arguments The syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF. syncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2). A similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=127970513829285&w=2 Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2011-03-18fs: call security_d_instantiate in d_obtain_alias V2Josef Bacik1-0/+3
While trying to track down some NFS problems with BTRFS, I kept noticing I was getting -EACCESS for no apparent reason. Eric Paris and printk() helped me figure out that it was SELinux that was giving me grief, with the following denial type=AVC msg=audit(1290013638.413:95): avc: denied { 0x800000 } for pid=1772 comm="nfsd" name="" dev=sda1 ino=256 scontext=system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 tclass=file Turns out this is because in d_obtain_alias if we can't find an alias we create one and do all the normal instantiation stuff, but we don't do the security_d_instantiate. Usually we are protected from getting a hashed dentry that hasn't yet run security_d_instantiate() by the parent's i_mutex, but obviously this isn't an option there, so in order to deal with the case that a second thread comes in and finds our new dentry before we get to run security_d_instantiate(), we go ahead and call it if we find a dentry already. Eric assures me that this is ok as the code checks to see if the dentry has been initialized already so calling security_d_instantiate() against the same dentry multiple times is ok. With this patch I'm no longer getting errant -EACCESS values. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2011-03-18don't pass 'mounting_here' flag to follow_down()Al Viro2-3/+3
it's always false now Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-03-18change the locking order for namespace_semAl Viro1-60/+73
Have it nested inside ->i_mutex. Instead of using follow_down() under namespace_sem, followed by grabbing i_mutex and checking that mountpoint to be is not dead, do the following: grab i_mutex check that it's not dead grab namespace_sem see if anything is mounted there if not, we've won otherwise drop locks put_path on what we had replace with what's mounted retry everything with new mountpoint to be New helper (lock_mount()) does that. do_add_mount(), do_move_mount(), do_loopback() and pivot_root() switched to it; in case of the last two that eliminates a race we used to have - original code didn't do follow_down().

2011-03-18fix deadlock in pivot_root()Al Viro1-11/+5
Don't hold vfsmount_lock over the loop traversing ->mnt_parent; do check_mnt(new.mnt) under namespace_sem instead; combined with namespace_sem held over all that code it'll guarantee the stability of ->mnt_parent chain all the way to the root. Doing check_mnt() outside of namespace_sem in case of pivot_root() is wrong anyway. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-03-17vfs: split off vfsmount-related parts of vfs_kern_mount()Al Viro3-122/+132
new function: mount_fs(). Does all work done by vfs_kern_mount() except the allocation and filling of vfsmount; returns root dentry or ERR_PTR(). vfs_kern_mount() switched to using it and taken to fs/namespace.c, along with its wrappers. alloc_vfsmnt()/free_vfsmnt() made static. functions in namespace.c slightly reordered.

2011-03-17Some fixes for pstoreTony Luck1-60/+56
1) Change from ->get_sb() to ->mount() 2) Use mount_single() instead of mount_nodev() 3) Pulled in ramfs_get_inode() & trimmed to what I need for pstore 4) Drop the ugly pstore_writefile() Just save data using kmalloc() and provide a pstore_file_read() that uses simple_read_from_buffer().

2011-03-17kill simple_set_mnt()Al Viro1-8/+0
not needed anymore, since all users (->get_sb() instances) are gone. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
