2011-08-01UBIFS: fix memory leak on error pathArtem Bityutskiy
commit 812eb258311f89bcd664a34a620f249d54a2cd83 upstream. UBIFS leaks memory on error path in 'ubifs_jnl_update()' in case of write failure because it forgets to free the 'struct ubifs_dent_node *dent' object. Although the object is small, the alignment can make it large - e.g., 2KiB if the min. I/O unit is 2KiB.

2011-08-01UBIFS: fix shrinker object count reportsArtem Bityutskiy
commit cf610bf4199770420629d3bc273494bd27ad6c1d upstream. Sometimes VM asks the shrinker to return amount of objects it can shrink, and we return the ubifs_clean_zn_cnt in that case. However, it is possible that this counter is negative for a short period of time, due to the way UBIFS TNC code updates it. And I can observe the following warnings sometimes: shrink_slab: ubifs_shrinker+0x0/0x2b7 [ubifs] negative objects to delete nr=-8541616642706119788 This patch makes sure UBIFS never returns negative count of objects.

2011-08-01UBIFS: fix a rare memory leak in ro to rw remounting pathArtem Bityutskiy
commit eaeee242c531cd4b0a4a46e8b5dd7ef504380c42 upstream. When re-mounting from R/O mode to R/W mode and the LEB count in the superblock is not up-to date, because for the underlying UBI volume became larger, we re-write the superblock. We allocate RAM for these purposes, but never free it. So this is a memory leak, although very rare one.

2011-04-28UBIFS: fix master node recoveryArtem Bityutskiy
commit 6e0d9fd38b750d678bf9fd07db23582f52fafa55 upstream. This patch fixes the following symptoms: 1. Unmount UBIFS cleanly. 2. Start mounting UBIFS R/W and have a power cut immediately 3. Start mounting UBIFS R/O, this succeeds 4. Try to re-mount UBIFS R/W - this fails immediately or later on, because UBIFS will write the master node to the flash area which has been written before. The analysis of the problem: 1. UBIFS is unmounted cleanly, both copies of the master node are clean. 2. UBIFS is being mounter R/W, starts changing master node copy 1, and a power cut happens. The copy N1 becomes corrupted. 3. UBIFS is being mounted R/O. It notices the copy N1 is corrupted and reads copy N2. Copy N2 is clean. 4. Because of R/O mode, UBIFS cannot recover copy 1. 5. The mount code (ubifs_mount()) sees that the master node is clean, so it decides that no recovery is needed. 6. We are re-mounting R/W. UBIFS believes no recovery is needed and starts updating the master node, but copy N1 is still corrupted and was not recovered! Fix this problem by marking the master node as dirty every time we recover it and we are in R/O mode. This forces further recovery and the UBIFS cleans-up the corruptions and recovers the copy N1 when re-mounting R/W later.

2011-04-28UBIFS: fix oops when R/O file-system is fsync'edArtem Bityutskiy
commit 78530bf7f2559b317c04991b52217c1608d5a58d upstream. This patch fixes severe UBIFS bug: UBIFS oopses when we 'fsync()' an file on R/O-mounter file-system. We (the UBIFS authors) incorrectly thought that VFS would not propagate 'fsync()' down to the file-system if it is read-only, but this is not the case. It is easy to exploit this bug using the following simple perl script: use strict; use File::Sync qw(fsync sync); die "File path is not specified" if not defined $ARGV[0]; my $path = $ARGV[0]; open FILE, "<", "$path" or die "Cannot open $path: $!"; fsync(\*FILE) or die "cannot fsync $path: $!"; close FILE or die "Cannot close $path: $!"; Thanks to Reuben Dowle <Reuben.Dowle@navico.com> for reporting about this issue.

2011-04-28UBIFS: fix debugging failure in dbg_check_space_infoArtem Bityutskiy
commit 7da6443aca9be29c6948dcbd636ad50154d0bc0c upstream. This patch fixes a debugging failure with which looks like this: UBIFS error (pid 32313): dbg_check_space_info: free space changed from 6019344 to 6022654 The reason for this failure is described in the comment this patch adds to the code. But in short - 'c->freeable_cnt' may be different before and after re-mounting, and this is normal. So the debugging code should make sure that free space calculations do not depend on 'c->freeable_cnt'. A similar issue has been reported here: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-April/034647.html This patch should fix it. For the -stable guys: this patch is only relevant for kernels 2.6.30 onwards.

2010-07-19mm: add context argument to shrinker callbackDave Chinner
The current shrinker implementation requires the registered callback to have global state to work from. This makes it difficult to shrink caches that are not global (e.g. per-filesystem caches). Pass the shrinker structure to the callback so that users can embed the shrinker structure in the context the shrinker needs to operate on and get back to it in the callback via container_of().

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-07Revert "lib: build list_sort() only if needed"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit a069c266ae5fdfbf5b4aecf2c672413aa33b2504. It turns ou that not only was it missing a case (XFS) that needed it, but perhaps more importantly, people sometimes want to enable new modules that they hadn't had enabled before, and if such a module uses list_sort(), it can't easily be inserted any more. So rather than add a "select LIST_SORT" to the XFS case, just leave it compiled in. It's not all _that_ big, after all, and the inconvenience isn't worth it.

2009-07-09UBIFS: fix corruption dumpArtem Bityutskiy
In the 'ubifs_recover_leb()' function, when we find corrupted empty space, we dump 8K starting from the offset where the last node ends. This is OK if the corrupted empty space is somewhere near that offset. But if the corruption is far at the end of the LEB, we will dump all 0xFF bytes and complitely ignore the interesting data. This is observed on a PPC ("kilauea") with NOR flash. This patch changes the behavior and teaches UBIFS to print only interesting data. I.e., now we find where corruption starts and start dumping from that offset. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Reviewed-by: Adrian Hunter <Adrian.Hunter@nokia.com>
