124514918b ceph: don't improperly set dir complete when holding EXCL cap
If we hold the EXCL cap, we cannot trust the dir stats from the MDS (num
files, subdirs) and must not incorrectly conclude that the directory is
empty.  If we do, we get can bad results from lookup (bad ENOENT) and
bad readdir results.

ff8d6e9831 fanotify: drop duplicate pr_debug statement
This reminded me... you have two pr_debugs in fanotify_should_send_event
which output redundant information. Maybe you intended it like that so
it is selectable how much log spam you want, or if not you may want to

2eebf582c9 fanotify: flush outstanding perm requests on group destroy
When an fanotify listener is closing it may cause a deadlock between the
listener and the original task doing an fs operation.  If the original task
is waiting for a permissions response it will be holding the srcu lock.  The
listener cannot clean up and exit until after that srcu lock is syncronized.
Thus deadlock.  The fix introduced here is to stop accepting new permissions
events when a listener is shutting down and to grant permission for all
outstanding events.  Thus the original task will eventually release the srcu
lock and the listener can complete shutdown.

84e1ab4d87 fsnotify: fix ignored mask handling between inode and vfsmount marks
The interesting 2 list lockstep walking didn't quite work out if the inode
marks only had ignores and the vfsmount list requested events.  The code to
shortcut list traversal would not run the inode list since it didn't have real
event requests.  This code forces inode list traversal when a vfsmount mark
matches the event type.  Maybe we could add an i_fsnotify_ignored_mask field
to struct inode to get the shortcut back, but it doesn't seem worth it to grow
struct inode again.

I bet with the recent changes to lock the way we do now it would actually not
be a major perf hit to just drop i_fsnotify_mark_mask altogether.  But that is
for another day.

5f3f259fa8 fsnotify: reset used_inode and used_vfsmount on each pass
The fsnotify main loop has 2 booleans which tell if a particular mark was
sent to the listeners or if it should be processed in the next pass.  The
problem is that the booleans were not reset on each traversal of the loop.
So marks could get skipped even when they were not sent to the notifiers.

faa9560ae7 fanotify: do not dereference inode_mark when it is unset
The fanotify code is supposed to get the group from the mark.  It accidentally
only used the inode_mark.  If the vfsmount_mark was set but not the inode_mark
it would deref the NULL inode_mark.  Get the group from the correct place.

eb6bb1c5bd ceph: direct requests in snapped namespace based on nonsnap parent
When making a request in the virtual snapdir or a snapped portion of the
namespace, we should choose the MDS based on the first nonsnap parent (and
its caps).  If that is not the best place, we will get forward hints to
find the right MDS in the cluster.  This fixes ESTALE errors when using
the .snap directory and namespace with multiple MDSs.

When we snapshot dirty metadata that needs to be written back to the MDS,
include dirty xattr metadata.  Make the capsnap reference the encoded
xattr blob so that it will be written back in the FLUSHSNAP op.

Also fix the capsnap creation guard to include dirty auth or file bits,
not just tests specific to dirty file data or file writes in progress

f3c60c5918 ceph: fix multiple mds session shutdown
The use of a completion when waiting for session shutdown during umount is
inappropriate, given the complexity of the condition.  For multiple MDS's,
this resulted in the umount thread spinning, often preventing the session
close message from being processed in some cases.

Switch to a waitqueue and defined a condition helper.  This cleans things
up nicely.

AV pairs and use them to calculate ntlmv2 response token.
Also, assign domain name from the sever response in type 2
packet of ntlmssp and use that (netbios) domain name in
calculation of response.

Enable cifs/smb signing using rc4 and md5.

Changed name of the structure mac_key to session_key to reflect
the type of key it holds.

Use kernel crypto_shash_* APIs instead of the equivalent cifs functions.

99b7db7b8f fs: brlock vfsmount_lock
fs: brlock vfsmount_lock

Use a brlock for the vfsmount lock. It must be taken for write whenever
modifying the mount hash or associated fields, and may be taken for read when
performing mount hash lookups.

A new lock is added for the mnt-id allocator, so it doesn't need to take
the heavy vfsmount write-lock.

The number of atomics should remain the same for fastpath rlock cases, though
code would be slightly slower due to per-cpu access. Scalability is not not be
much improved in common cases yet, due to other locks (ie. dcache_lock) getting
in the way. However path lookups crossing mountpoints should be one case where
scalability is improved (currently requiring the global lock).

The slowpath is slower due to use of brlock. On a 64 core, 64 socket, 32 node
Altix system (high latency to remote nodes), a simple umount microbenchmark
(mount --bind mnt mnt2 ; umount mnt2 loop 1000 times), before this patch it
took 6.8s, afterwards took 7.1s, about 5% slower.

6416ccb789 fs: scale files_lock
fs: scale files_lock

Improve scalability of files_lock by adding per-cpu, per-sb files lists,
protected with an lglock. The lglock provides fast access to the per-cpu lists
to add and remove files. It also provides a snapshot of all the per-cpu lists
(although this is very slow).

One difficulty with this approach is that a file can be removed from the list
by another CPU. We must track which per-cpu list the file is on with a new
variale in the file struct (packed into a hole on 64-bit archs). Scalability
could suffer if files are frequently removed from different cpu's list.

However loads with frequent removal of files imply short interval between
adding and removing the files, and the scheduler attempts to avoid moving
processes too far away. Also, even in the case of cross-CPU removal, the
hardware has much more opportunity to parallelise cacheline transfers with N
cachelines than with 1.

A worst-case test of 1 CPU allocating files subsequently being freed by N CPUs
degenerates to contending on a single lock, which is no worse than before. When
more than one CPU are allocating files, even if they are always freed by
different CPUs, there will be more parallelism than the single-lock case.

Testing results:

On a 2 socket, 8 core opteron, I measure the number of times the lock is taken
to remove the file, the number of times it is removed by the same CPU that
added it, and the number of times it is removed by the same node that added it.

Booting:    locks=  25049 cpu-hits=  23174 (92.5%) node-hits=  23945 (95.6%)
kbuild -j16 locks=2281913 cpu-hits=2208126 (96.8%) node-hits=2252674 (98.7%)
dbench 64   locks=4306582 cpu-hits=4287247 (99.6%) node-hits=4299527 (99.8%)

So a file is removed from the same CPU it was added by over 90% of the time.
It remains within the same node 95% of the time.

So significantly less CPU time spent in kernel code, higher idle time and
slightly higher throughput.

Single threaded performance difference was within the noise of microbenchmarks.
That is not to say penalty does not exist, the code is larger and more memory
accesses required so it will be slightly slower.

d996b62a8d tty: fix fu_list abuse
tty: fix fu_list abuse

tty code abuses fu_list, which causes a bug in remount,ro handling.

If a tty device node is opened on a filesystem, then the last link to the inode
removed, the filesystem will be allowed to be remounted readonly. This is
because fs_may_remount_ro does not find the 0 link tty inode on the file sb
list (because the tty code incorrectly removed it to use for its own purpose).
This can result in a filesystem with errors after it is marked "clean".

Taking idea from Christoph's initial patch, allocate a tty private struct
at file->private_data and put our required list fields in there, linking
file and tty. This makes tty nodes behave the same way as other device nodes
and avoid meddling with the vfs, and avoids this bug.

The error handling is not trivial in the tty code, so for this bugfix, I take
the simple approach of using __GFP_NOFAIL and don't worry about memory errors.
This is not a problem because our allocator doesn't fail small allocs as a rule
anyway. So proper error handling is left as an exercise for tty hackers.

[ Arguably filesystem's device inode would ideally be divorced from the
driver's pseudo inode when it is opened, but in practice it's not clear whether
that will ever be worth implementing. ]

b04f784e5d fs: remove extra lookup in __lookup_hash
fs: remove extra lookup in __lookup_hash

Optimize lookup for create operations, where no dentry should often be
common-case. In cases where it is not, such as unlink, the added overhead
is much smaller than the removed.

Also, move comments about __d_lookup racyness to the __d_lookup call site.
d_lookup is intuitive; __d_lookup is what needs commenting. So in that same
vein, add kerneldoc comments to __d_lookup and clean up some of the comments:

- We are interested in how the RCU lookup works here, particularly with
  renames. Make that explicit, and point to the document where it is explained
  in more detail.
- RCU is pretty standard now, and macros make implementations pretty mindless.
  If we want to know about RCU barrier details, we look in RCU code.
- Delete some boring legacy comments because we don't care much about how the
  code used to work, more about the interesting parts of how it works now. So
  comments about lazy LRU may be interesting, but would better be done in the
  LRU or refcount management code.

2a4419b5b2 fs: fs_struct rwlock to spinlock
fs: fs_struct rwlock to spinlock

struct fs_struct.lock is an rwlock with the read-side used to protect root and
pwd members while taking references to them. Taking a reference to a path
typically requires just 2 atomic ops, so the critical section is very small.
Parallel read-side operations would have cacheline contention on the lock, the
dentry, and the vfsmount cachelines, so the rwlock is unlikely to ever give a
real parallelism increase.

Replace it with a spinlock to avoid one or two atomic operations in typical
path lookup fastpath.

2e2e88ea8c fs: fix do_lookup false negative
fs: fix do_lookup false negative

In do_lookup, if we initially find no dentry, we take the directory i_mutex and
re-check the lookup. If we find a dentry there, then we revalidate it if
needed. However if that revalidate asks for the dentry to be invalidated, we
return -ENOENT from do_lookup. What should happen instead is an attempt to
allocate and lookup a new dentry.

This is probably not noticed because it is rare. It is only reached if a
concurrent create races in first (in which case, the dentry probably won't be
invalidated anyway), or if the racy __d_lookup has failed due to a
false-negative (which is very rare).

Fix this by removing code and have it use the normal reval path.

Instead add a new write_dirty_buffer helper that implements this semantic
and use it from the existing SWRITE* callers.  Note that the ll_rw_block
code had a bug where it didn't promote WRITE_SYNC_PLUG properly, which
this patch fixes.

d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

This turns out to be a false message due to the change which updates

This kills the false warning by suppressing it if another super block

d7824370e2 mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page
This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user
space. It does this by:

 - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps

   It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure
   out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized
   "mlockall()" in user space.  By not showing the guard page as part of
   the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up
   pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it.

 - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock
   the guard page.

   That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page,
   so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place.

It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in
/proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but
let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs
that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file.

Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools
source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.
