2007-07-19[XFS] Fix inode size update before data write in xfs_setattrDavid Chinner
When changing the file size by a truncate() call, we log the change in the inode size. However, we do not flush any outstanding data that might not have been written to disk, thereby violating the data/inode size update order. This can leave files full of NULLs on crash. Hence if we are truncating the file, flush any unwritten data that may lie between the curret on disk inode size and the new inode size that is being logged to ensure that ordering is preserved.

2007-07-19[XFS] Implement ->page_mkwrite in XFS.David Chinner
Hook XFS up to ->page_mkwrite to ensure that we know about mmap pages being written to. This allows use to do correct delayed allocation and ENOSPC checking as well as remap unwritten extents so that they get converted correctly during writeback. This is done via the generic block_page_mkwrite code.

2007-07-19[FS] Implement block_page_mkwrite.David Chinner
Many filesystems need a ->page-mkwrite callout to correctly set up pages that have been written to by mmap. This is especially important when mmap is writing into holes as it allows filesystems to correctly account for and allocate space before the mmap write is allowed to proceed. Protection against truncate races is provided by locking the page and checking to see whether the page mapping is correct and whether it is beyond EOF so we don't end up allowing allocations beyond the current EOF or changing EOF as a result of a mmap write.

Since gfs2 can't prevent conflicting opens or leases on other nodes, we probably shouldn't allow it to give out leases at all.

2007-07-18locks: provide a file lease method enabling cluster-coherent leasesJ. Bruce Fields
Currently leases are only kept locally, so there's no way for a distributed filesystem to enforce them against multiple clients. We're particularly interested in the case of nfsd exporting a cluster filesystem, in which case nfsd needs cluster-coherent leases in order to implement delegations correctly. Also add some documentation. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2007-07-18locks: rename lease functions to reflect locks.c conventionsJ. Bruce Fields
We've been using the convention that vfs_foo is the function that calls a filesystem-specific foo method if it exists, or falls back on a generic method if it doesn't; thus vfs_foo is what is called when some other part of the kernel (normally lockd or nfsd) wants to get a lock, whereas foo is what filesystems call to use the underlying local functionality as part of their lock implementation. So rename setlease to vfs_setlease (which will call a filesystem-specific setlease after a later patch) and __setlease to setlease. Also, vfs_setlease need only be GPL-exported as long as it's only needed by lockd and nfsd. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

2007-07-18UIO: Hilscher CIF card driverHans-Jürgen Koch
this is a patch that adds support for Hilscher CIF DeviceNet and Profibus cards. I tested it on a Kontron CPX board, and Thomas reviewed it. You can find the user space part here: http://www.osadl.org/projects/downloads/UIO/user/cif-0.1.0.tar.gz Notes: cif_api.c is the main file you want to look at. It contains the functions to open, close, mmap and so on. cif_dps.c adds functions specific to Profibus cards, and cif_dn.c contains functions for DeviceNet cards. cif.c is a universal playground, it's just a small test program. The user space part of this UIO driver is still work in progress, and not everything is tested yet. At the moment, the thread in cif_api.c contains some code that artificially makes the card generate interrupts, this was added for testing and will be removed later. But the driver already contains all the functions needed for useful operation, so it gives a good idea of how such a thing looks like. For comparison, here's what you get from the manufacturer (www.hilscher.com) when you ask for a Linux 2.6 driver: http://www.tglx.de/private/hjk/cif-orig-2.6.tar.bz2 WARNING: Don't look at the code for too long, you might become sick :-) Signed-off-by: Hans-Jürgen Koch <hjk@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2007-07-18sysfs: cosmetic clean up on node creation failure pathsTejun Heo
Node addition failure is detected by testing return value of sysfs_addfm_finish() which returns the number of added and removed nodes. As the function is called as the last step of addition right on top of error handling block, the if blocks looked like the following. if (sysfs_addrm_finish(&acxt)) success handling, usually return; /* fall through to error handling */ This is the opposite of usual convention in sysfs and makes the code difficult to understand. This patch inverts the test and makes those blocks look more like others.

2007-07-18dev_vdbg(), available with -DVERBOSE_DEBUGDavid Brownell
This defines a dev_vdbg() call, which is enabled with -DVERBOSE_DEBUG. When enabled, dev_vdbg() acts just like dev_dbg(). When disabled, it is a NOP ... just like dev_dbg() without -DDEBUG. The specific code was moved out of a USB patch, but lots of drivers have similar support. That is, code can now be written to use an additional level of debug output, selected at compile time. Many driver authors have found this idiom to be very useful. A typical usage model is for "normal" debug messages to focus on fault paths and not be very "chatty", so that those messages can be left on during normal operation without much of a performance or syslog load. On the other hand "verbose" messages would be noisy enough that they wouldn't normally be enabled; they might even affect timings enough to change system or driver behavior.

2007-07-18debugfs: remove rmdir() non-empty complaintJens Axboe
Hi, This patch kills the pointless debugfs rmdir() printk() when called on a non-empty directory. blktrace will sometimes have to call it a few times when forcefully ending a trace, which polutes the log with pointless warnings. Rationale: - It's more code to work-around this "problem" in the debugfs users, and you would have to add code to check for empty directories to do so (or assume that debugfs is using simple_ helpers, but that would be a layering violation). - Other rmdir() implementations don't complain about something this silly.

2007-07-18eHEA: Fix bonding supportThomas Klein
The driver didn't allow an interface's MAC address to be modified if the respective interface wasn't setup - a failing Hcall was the result. Thus bonding wasn't usable.
