xfs: add a shrinker to background inode reclaim

2010-04-29T21:22:13Z

On low memory boxes or those with highmem, kernel can OOM before the background reclaims inodes via xfssyncd. Add a shrinker to run inode reclaim so that it inode reclaim is expedited when memory is low. This is more complex than it needs to be because the VM folk don't want a context added to the shrinker infrastructure. Hence we need to add a global list of XFS mount structures so the shrinker can traverse them. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig

exofs: Fix "add bdi backing to mount session" fall out

2010-04-29T18:35:29Z

The patch: add bdi backing to mount session (b3d0ab7e60d1865bb6f6a79a77aaba22f2543236) Has a bug in the placement of the bdi member at struct exofs_sb_info. The layout member must be kept last. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

fs: fs/super.c needs to include backing-dev.h for !CONFIG_BLOCK

2010-04-29T18:33:35Z

When CONFIG_BLOCK is set, it ends up getting backing-dev.h included. But for !CONFIG_BLOCK, it isn't so lucky. The proper thing to do is include directly from the file it's used from, so do that. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

pktcdvd: improve BKL and compat_ioctl.c usage

2010-04-29T15:44:37Z

The pktcdvd driver uses proper locking and does not need the BKL in the ioctl and llseek functions of the character device, so kill both. Moving the compat_ioctl handling from common code into the driver itself fixes build problems when CONFIG_BLOCK is disabled.

nfs d_revalidate() is too trigger-happy with d_drop()

2010-04-29T03:40:03Z

If dentry found stale happens to be a root of disconnected tree, we can't d_drop() it; its d_hash is actually part of s_anon and d_drop() would simply hide it from shrink_dcache_for_umount(), leading to all sorts of fun, including busy inodes on umount and oopsen after that. Bug had been there since at least 2006 (commit c636eb already has it), so it's definitely -stable fodder. Signed-off-by: Al Viro Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

nfs: fix memory leak in nfs_get_sb with CONFIG_NFS_V4

2010-04-28T17:46:28Z

With CONFIG_NFS_V4 and data version 4, nfs_get_sb will allocate memory for export_path in nfs4_validate_text_mount_data, so we need to free it then. This is addressed in following kmemleak report: unreferenced object 0xffff88016bf48a50 (size 16): comm "mount.nfs", pid 22567, jiffies 4651574704 (age 175471.200s) hex dump (first 16 bytes): 2f 6f 70 74 2f 77 6f 72 6b 00 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5 /opt/work.kkkkk. backtrace: [] kmemleak_alloc+0x60/0xa7 [] kmemleak_alloc_recursive.clone.5+0x1b/0x1d [] __kmalloc_track_caller+0x18f/0x1b7 [] kstrndup+0x37/0x54 [] nfs_parse_devname+0x152/0x204 [nfs] [] nfs4_validate_text_mount_data+0xd0/0xdc [nfs] [] nfs_get_sb+0x325/0x736 [nfs] [] vfs_kern_mount+0xbd/0x17c [] do_kern_mount+0x4d/0xed [] do_mount+0x787/0x7fe [] sys_mount+0x88/0xc2 [] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Xiaotian Feng Cc: Trond Myklebust Cc: Chuck Lever Cc: Benny Halevy Cc: Al Viro Cc: Andy Adamson Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust
