ceph: check PG_Private flag before accessing page->private

2012-06-20T12:43:48Z

I got lots of NULL pointer dereference Oops when compiling kernel on ceph. The bug is because the kernel page migration routine replaces some pages in the page cache with new pages, these new pages' private can be non-zero.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2012-06-01T17:34:35Z

Pull vfs changes from Al Viro. "A lot of misc stuff. The obvious groups: * Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of ->d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for all work in that area. * ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in general. * ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in mm/cleancache.c gone. * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user) * parts of Artem's ->s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts) * ->update_time() work from Josef. * other bits and pieces all over the place. Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/" Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the 'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby). * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (95 commits) nfs: don't open in ->d_revalidate vfs: retry last component if opening stale dentry vfs: nameidata_to_filp(): don't throw away file on error vfs: nameidata_to_filp(): inline __dentry_open() vfs: do_dentry_open(): don't put filp vfs: split __dentry_open() vfs: do_last() common post lookup vfs: do_last(): add audit_inode before open vfs: do_last(): only return EISDIR for O_CREAT vfs: do_last(): check LOOKUP_DIRECTORY vfs: do_last(): make ENOENT exit RCU safe vfs: make follow_link check RCU safe vfs: do_last(): use inode variable vfs: do_last(): inline walk_component() vfs: do_last(): make exit RCU safe vfs: split do_lookup() Btrfs: move over to use ->update_time fs: introduce inode operation ->update_time reiserfs: get rid of resierfs_sync_super reiserfs: mark the superblock as dirty a bit later ...

Merge misc patches from Andrew Morton: - the "misc" tree - stuff from all over the map - checkpatch updates - fatfs - kmod changes - procfs - cpumask - UML - kexec - mqueue - rapidio - pidns - some checkpoint-restore feature work.

introduce SIZE_MAX

2012-06-01T00:49:26Z

ULONG_MAX is often used to check for integer overflow when calculating allocation size. While ULONG_MAX happens to work on most systems, there is no guarantee that `size_t' must be the same size as `long'. This patch introduces SIZE_MAX, the maximum value of `size_t', to improve portability and readability for allocation size validation.

ceph: move encode_fh to new API

2012-05-30T03:28:33Z

Use parent_inode has a flag for whether nfsd wants a connectable fh, but generate one opportunistically so that we can take advantage of the additional info in there. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil Signed-off-by: Al Viro

->encode_fh() API change

2012-05-30T03:28:33Z

pass inode + parent's inode or NULL instead of dentry + bool saying whether we want the parent or not. NOTE: that needs ceph fix folded in. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

ceph: use info returned by get_authorizer

2012-05-17T13:18:13Z

Rather than passing a bunch of arguments to be filled in with the content of the ceph_auth_handshake buffer now returned by the get_authorizer method, just use the returned information in the caller, and drop the unnecessary arguments. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Reviewed-by: Sage Weil

ceph: have get_authorizer methods return pointers

2012-05-17T13:18:13Z

Have the get_authorizer auth_client method return a ceph_auth pointer rather than an integer, pointer-encoding any returned error value. This is to pave the way for making use of the returned value in an upcoming patch. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Reviewed-by: Sage Weil

ceph: ensure auth ops are defined before use

2012-05-17T13:18:13Z

In the create_authorizer method for both the mds and osd clients, the auth_client->ops pointer is blindly dereferenced. There is no obvious guarantee that this pointer has been assigned. And furthermore, even if the ops pointer is non-null there is definitely no guarantee that the create_authorizer or destroy_authorizer methods are defined. Add checks in both routines to make sure they are defined (non-null) before use. Add similar checks in a few other spots in these files while we're at it.
