2009-02-12elf core dump: fix get_user useRoland McGrath
commit 92dc07b1f988e8c237a38e23be660b9b8533e6fd upstream. The elf_core_dump() code does its work with set_fs(KERNEL_DS) in force, so vma_dump_size() needs to switch back with set_fs(USER_DS) to safely use get_user() for a normal user-space address. Checking for VM_READ optimizes out the case where get_user() would fail anyway. The vm_file check here was already superfluous given the control flow earlier in the function, so that is a cleanup/optimization unrelated to other changes but an obvious and trivial one.

2009-02-12seq_file: fix big-enough lseek() + read()Alexey Dobriyan
commit f01d1d546abb2f4028b5299092f529eefb01253a upstream. lseek() further than length of the file will leave stale ->index (second-to-last during iteration). Next seq_read() will not notice that ->f_pos is big enough to return 0, but will print last item as if ->f_pos is pointing to it. Introduced in commit cb510b8172602a66467f3551b4be1911f5a7c8c2 aka "seq_file: more atomicity in traverse()".

2009-02-12seq_file: move traverse so it can be used from seq_readEric Biederman
commit 33da8892a2f9e7d4b2d9a35fc80833ba2d2b1aa6 upstream. In 2.6.25 some /proc files were converted to use the seq_file infrastructure. But seq_files do not correctly support pread(), which broke some usersapce applications. To handle pread correctly we can't assume that f_pos is where we left it in seq_read. So move traverse() so that we can eventually use it in seq_read and do thus some day support pread().

2009-02-06dlm: initialize file_lock struct in GETLK before copying conflicting lockJeff Layton
commit 20d5a39929232a715f29e6cb7e3f0d0c790f41eb upstream. dlm_posix_get fills out the relevant fields in the file_lock before returning when there is a lock conflict, but doesn't clean out any of the other fields in the file_lock. When nfsd does a NFSv4 lockt call, it sets the fl_lmops to nfsd_posix_mng_ops before calling the lower fs. When the lock comes back after testing a lock on GFS2, it still has that field set. This confuses nfsd into thinking that the file_lock is a nfsd4 lock. Fix this by making DLM reinitialize the file_lock before copying the fields from the conflicting lock.

2009-02-06nfsd: Ensure nfsv4 calls the underlying filesystem on LOCKTJ. Bruce Fields
commit 55ef1274dddd4de387c54d110e354ffbb6cdc706 upstream. Since nfsv4 allows LOCKT without an open, but the ->lock() method is a file method, we fake up a struct file in the nfsv4 code with just the fields we need initialized. But we forgot to initialize the file operations, with the result that LOCKT never results in a call to the filesystem's ->lock() method (if it exists). We could just add that one more initialization. But this hack of faking up a struct file with only some fields initialized seems the kind of thing that might cause more problems in the future. We should either do an open and get a real struct file, or make lock-testing an inode (not a file) method. This patch does the former.

2009-02-06nfsd: only set file_lock.fl_lmops in nfsd4_lockt if a stateowner is foundJeff Layton
commit fa82a491275a613b15489aab4b99acecb00958d3 upstream. nfsd4_lockt does a search for a lockstateowner when building the lock struct to test. If one is found, it'll set fl_owner to it. Regardless of whether that happens, it'll also set fl_lmops. Given that this lock is basically a "lightweight" lock that's just used for checking conflicts, setting fl_lmops is probably not appropriate for it. This behavior exposed a bug in DLM's GETLK implementation where it wasn't clearing out the fields in the file_lock before filling in conflicting lock info. While we were able to fix this in DLM, it still seems pointless and dangerous to set the fl_lmops this way when we may have a NULL lockstateowner.

2009-02-02epoll: drop max_user_instances and rely only on max_user_watchesDavide Libenzi
commit 9df04e1f25effde823a600e755b51475d438f56b upstream. Linus suggested to put limits where the money is, and max_user_watches already does that w/out the need of max_user_instances. That has the advantage to mitigate the potential DoS while allowing pretty generous default behavior. Allowing top 4% of low memory (per user) to be allocated in epoll watches, we have: LOMEM MAX_WATCHES (per user) 512MB ~178000 1GB ~356000 2GB ~712000 A box with 512MB of lomem, will meet some challenge in hitting 180K watches, socket buffers math teaches us.

2009-02-02inotify: clean up inotify_read and fix locking problemsVegard Nossum
commit 3632dee2f8b8a9720329f29eeaa4ec4669a3aff8 upstream. If userspace supplies an invalid pointer to a read() of an inotify instance, the inotify device's event list mutex is unlocked twice. This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure unprotected, and we can trigger oopses by accessing the inotify instance from different tasks concurrently. The best fix (contributed largely by Linus) is a total rewrite of the function in question: On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 7:05 AM, Linus Torvalds wrote: > The thing to notice is that: > > - locking is done in just one place, and there is no question about it > not having an unlock. > > - that whole double-while(1)-loop thing is gone. > > - use multiple functions to make nesting and error handling sane > > - do error testing after doing the things you always need to do, ie do > this: > > mutex_lock(..) > ret = function_call(); > mutex_unlock(..) > > .. test ret here .. > > instead of doing conditional exits with unlocking or freeing. > > So if the code is written in this way, it may still be buggy, but at least > it's not buggy because of subtle "forgot to unlock" or "forgot to free" > issues. > > This _always_ unlocks if it locked, and it always frees if it got a > non-error kevent.

commit 856bf4d717feb8c55d4e2f817b71ebb70cfbc67b upstream. s_syncing livelock avoidance was breaking data integrity guarantee of sys_sync, by allowing sys_sync to skip writing or waiting for superblocks if there is a concurrent sys_sync happening. This livelock avoidance is much less important now that we don't have the get_super_to_sync() call after every sb that we sync. This was replaced by __put_super_and_need_restart.

2009-01-24fs: remove WB_SYNC_HOLDNick Piggin
commit 4f5a99d64c17470a784a6c68064207d82e3e74a5 upstream. Remove WB_SYNC_HOLD. The primary motiviation is the design of my anti-starvation code for fsync. It requires taking an inode lock over the sync operation, so we could run into lock ordering problems with multiple inodes. It is possible to take a single global lock to solve the ordering problem, but then that would prevent a future nice implementation of "sync multiple inodes" based on lock order via inode address. Seems like a backward step to remove this, but actually it is busted anyway: we can't use the inode lists for data integrity wait: an inode can be taken off the dirty lists but still be under writeback. In order to satisfy data integrity semantics, we should wait for it to finish writeback, but if we only search the dirty lists, we'll miss it. It would be possible to have a "writeback" list, for sys_sync, I suppose. But why complicate things by prematurely optimise? For unmounting, we could avoid the "livelock avoidance" code, which would be easier, but again premature IMO. Fixing the existing data integrity problem will come next.

2009-01-18XFS: truncate readdir offsets to signed 32 bit valuesChristoph Hellwig
commit 15440319767942a363f282d6585303d3d75088ba upstream. John Stanley reported EOVERFLOW errors in readdir from his self-build glibc. I traced this down to glibc enabling d_off overflow checks in one of the about five million different getdents implementations. In 2.6.28 Dave Woodhouse moved our readdir double buffering required for NFS4 readdirplus into nfsd and at that point we lost the capping of the directory offsets to 32 bit signed values. Johns glibc used getdents64 to even implement readdir for normal 32 bit offset dirents, and failed with EOVERFLOW only if this happens on the first dirent in a getdents call. I managed to come up with a testcase that uses raw getdents and does the EOVERFLOW check manually. We always hit it with our last entry due to the special end of directory marker. The patch below is a dumb version of just putting back the masking, to make sure we have the same behavior as in 2.6.27 and earlier. I will work on a better and cleaner fix for 2.6.30.

2009-01-18nfs: remove redundant tests on reading new pagesWu Fengguang
commit 136221fc3219b3805c48db5da065e8e3467175d4 upstream. aops->readpages() and its NFS helper readpage_async_filler() will only be called to do readahead I/O for newly allocated pages. So it's not necessary to test for the always 0 dirty/uptodate page flags. The removal of nfs_wb_page() call also fixes a readahead bug: the NFS readahead has been synchronous since 2.6.23, because that call will clear PG_readahead, which is the reminder for asynchronous readahead. More background: the PG_readahead page flag is shared with PG_reclaim, one for read path and the other for write path. clear_page_dirty_for_io() unconditionally clears PG_readahead to prevent possible readahead residuals, assuming itself to be always called in the write path. However, NFS is one and the only exception in that it _always_ calls clear_page_dirty_for_io() in the read path, i.e. for readpages()/readpage().

2009-01-18Fix timeouts in sys_pselect7Bernd Schmidt
commit 62568510b8e2679cbc331d7de10ea9ba81ae8b3d upstream. Since we (Analog Devices) updated our Blackfin kernel to 2.6.28, we've seen occasional 5-second hangs from telnet. telnetd calls select with a NULL timeout, but with the new kernel, the system call occasionally returns 0, which causes telnet to call sleep (5). This did not happen with earlier kernels. The code in sys_pselect7 looks a bit strange, in particular the variable "to" is initialized to NULL, then changed if a non-null timeout was passed in, but not used further. It needs to be passed to core_sys_select instead of &end_time. This bug was introduced by 8ff3e8e85fa6c312051134b3953e397feb639f51 ("select: switch select() and poll() over to hrtimers").

2009-01-18System call wrapper special casesHeiko Carstens
commit 6673e0c3fbeaed2cd08e2fd4a4aa97382d6fedb0 upstream. System calls with an unsigned long long argument can't be converted with the standard wrappers since that would include a cast to long, which in turn means that we would lose the upper 32 bit on 32 bit architectures. Also semctl can't use the standard wrapper since it has a 'union' parameter. So we handle them as special case and add some extra wrappers instead.

2009-01-18Make sys_pselect7 staticHeiko Carstens
commit c9da9f2129d6a421c32e334a83770a9e67f7feac upstream. Not a single architecture has wired up sys_pselect7 plus it is the only system call with seven parameters. Just make it static and rename it to do_pselect which will do the work for sys_pselect6. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2009-01-18Remove __attribute__((weak)) from sys_pipe/sys_pipe2Heiko Carstens
commit 1134723e96f6e2abcf8bfd7a2d1c96fcc323ef35 upstream. Remove __attribute__((weak)) from common code sys_pipe implemantation. IA64, ALPHA, SUPERH (32bit) and SPARC (32bit) have own implemantations with the same name. Just rename them. For sys_pipe2 there is no architecture specific implementation.

2009-01-18Convert all system calls to return a longHeiko Carstens
commit 2ed7c03ec17779afb4fcfa3b8c61df61bd4879ba upstream. Convert all system calls to return a long. This should be a NOP since all converted types should have the same size anyway. With the exception of sys_exit_group which returned void. But that doesn't matter since the system call doesn't return.

2009-01-18inotify: fix type errors in interfacesMichael Kerrisk
commit 4ae8978cf92a96257cd8998a49e781be83571d64 upstream. The problems lie in the types used for some inotify interfaces, both at the kernel level and at the glibc level. This mail addresses the kernel problem. I will follow up with some suggestions for glibc changes. For the sys_inotify_rm_watch() interface, the type of the 'wd' argument is currently 'u32', it should be '__s32' . That is Robert's suggestion, and is consistent with the other declarations of watch descriptors in the kernel source, in particular, the inotify_event structure in include/linux/inotify.h: struct inotify_event { __s32 wd; /* watch descriptor */ __u32 mask; /* watch mask */ __u32 cookie; /* cookie to synchronize two events */ __u32 len; /* length (including nulls) of name */ char name[0]; /* stub for possible name */ }; The patch makes the changes needed for inotify_rm_watch().
