2007-05-23[PATCH] JFS: Fix race waking up jfsIO kernel threadDave Kleikamp
It's possible for a journal I/O request to be added to the log_redrive queue and the jfsIO thread to be awakened after the thread releases log_redrive_lock but before it sets its state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. The jfsIO thread should set the state before giving up the spinlock, so the waking thread will really wake it.

2007-05-23[PATCH] udf: decrement correct link count in udf_rmdirStephen Mollett
It appears that a minor thinko occurred in udf_rmdir and the (already-cleared) link count on the directory that is being removed was being decremented instead of the link count on its parent directory. This gives rise to lots of kernel messages similar to: UDF-fs warning (device loop1): udf_rmdir: empty directory has nlink != 2 (8) when removing directory trees. No other ill effects have been observed but I guess it could theoretically result in the link count overflowing on a very long-lived, much modified directory.

2007-04-24reiserfs: fix xattr root locking/refcount bugJeff Mahoney
The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read lock. As a result, if either of these operations run in parallel, a race condition exists where the xattr_root will end up being cached twice, which results in the leaking of a reference and a BUG() on umount. This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(), into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around the entire critical section.

2007-04-24v9fs: don't use primary fid when removing fileLatchesar Ionkov
v9fs_insert uses v9fs_fid_lookup (which also locks the fid) to get the primary fid associated with the dentry and destroys the v9fs_fid struct after removing the file. If another process called v9fs_fid_lookup on the same dentry, it may wait undefinitely for the fid's lock (as the struct is freed). This patch changes v9fs_remove to use a cloned fid, so the primary fid is not locked and freed.

Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the value of test_set_page_writeback(). The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

2007-04-12[PATCH] autofs4: fix race in unhashed dentry codeJeff Mahoney
Commit f50b6f8691cae2e0064c499dd3ef3f31142987f0 introduced a race in autofs4 between autofs_lookup_unhashed() and autofs_dentry_release(). autofs_dentry_release() ends up clearing the ->dentry and ->inode members of autofs_info before removing it from the rehash list. The list is protected by the rehash lock in both functions, but since autofs_dentry_release() starts tearing the autofs_info struct down before removing it from the list, autofs_lookup_unhashed() can get a autofs_info with a NULL dentry. This patch moves the clearing of ->dentry and ->inode after the removal from the rehash list.

Revert e92a4d595b464c4aae64be39ca61a9ffe9c8b278. Dmitry points out "When we block_prepare_write() failed while ext3_prepare_write() we jump to "failure" label and call ext3_prepare_failure() witch search last mapped bh and invoke commit_write untill it. This is wrong!! because some bh from begining to the last mapped bh may be not uptodate. As a result we commit to disk not uptodate page content witch contains garbage from previous usage." and "Unexpected file size increasing." Call trace the same as it was in first issue but result is different. For example we have file with i_size is zero. we want write two blocks , but fs has only one free block. ->ext3_prepare_write(...from == 0, to == 2048) retry: ->block_prepare_write() == -ENOSPC# we failed but allocated one block here. ->ext3_prepare_failure() ->commit_write( from == 0, to == 1024) # after this i_size becomes 1024 :) if (ret == -ENOSPC && ext3_should_retry_alloc(inode->i_sb, &retries)) goto retry; Finally when all retries will be spended ext3_prepare_failure return -ENOSPC, but i_size was increased and later block trimm procedures can't help here. We don't appear to have the horsepower to fix these issues, so let's put things back the way they were for now.

In dlm_migrate_lockres(), we check upfront whether the lockres is a candidate for migration. This patch encapsulates that code in a separate function so that dlm_empty_lockres() can also use it during umount. This patch addresses the umount process spinning problem.

2007-03-26ocfs2_dlm: Fix lockres ref counting bugSunil Mushran
During umount, the umount thread migrates the lockres' and the dlm_thread frees the empty lockres'. Due to a race, the reference counting on the lockres goes awry leading to extra puts. Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

A little mistake in 8a2bfdcbfa441d8b0e5cb9c9a7f45f77f80da465 is making all transactions synchronous, which reduces ext3 performance to comical levels.

2007-03-23[PATCH] FDPIC: fix the /proc/pid/stat representation of executable boundariesDavid Howells
Fix the /proc/pid/stat representation of executable boundaries. It should show the bounds of the executable, but instead shows the bounds of the loader. Before the patch is applied, the bug can be seen by examining, say, inetd: # ps | grep inetd 610 root 0 S /usr/sbin/inetd -i # cat /proc/610/maps c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3180000-c31dede4 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582179 /lib/libuClibc-0.9.28.so c328c000-c328ea00 rw-p 00008000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3290000-c329b6c0 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c32a0000-c32c0000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 c32d4000-c32d8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3394000-c3398000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3458000-c345f464 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd c3470000-c34748f8 rw-p 00004000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd c34cc000-c34d0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c34d4000-c34d8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c34d8000-c34dc000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 # cat /proc/610/stat 610 (inetd) S 1 610 610 0 -1 256 0 0 0 0 0 8 0 0 19 0 1 0 94392000718 950272 0 4294967295 3233480704 3233523592 3274440352 3274439976 3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0 The code boundaries are 3233480704 to 3233523592, which are: (gdb) p/x 3233480704 $1 = 0xc0bb0000 (gdb) p/x 3233523592 $2 = 0xc0bba788 Which corresponds to this line in the maps file: c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so Which is wrong. After the patch is applied, the maps file is pretty much identical (there's some minor shuffling of the location of some of the anonymous VMAs), but the stat file is now: # cat /proc/610/stat 610 (inetd) S 1 610 610 0 -1 256 0 0 0 0 0 7 0 0 18 0 1 0 94392000722 950272 0 4294967295 3276111872 3276141668 3274440352 3274439976 3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0 The code boundaries are then 3276111872 to 3276141668, which are: (gdb) p/x 3276111872 $1 = 0xc3458000 (gdb) p/x 3276141668 $2 = 0xc345f464 And these correspond to this line in the maps file instead: c3458000-c345f464 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd Which is now correct.

2007-03-22[PATCH] Make XFS workqueues nonfreezableRafael J. Wysocki
Since freezable workqueues are broken in 2.6.21-rc (cf. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116855740612755, http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=117261312523921&w=2) it's better to change the only user of them, which is XFS, to use "normal" nonfreezable workqueues.

2007-03-23[CIFS] Allow reset of file to ATTR_NORMAL when archive bit not setSteve French
When a file had a dos attribute of 0x1 (readonly - but dos attribute of archive was not set) - doing chmod 0777 or equivalent would try to set a dos attribute of 0 (which some servers ignore) rather than ATTR_NORMAL (0x20) which most servers accept. Does not affect servers which support the CIFS Unix Extensions.
