The data chunk is mmaped with 'len' which remains unchanged, so use that
when unmapping in the error path rather than trying to recalculate (and
incorrectly so) the value used originally.

The stack and data have different alignment requirements, so don't force
them to wear the same shoe. Increase the data alignment to match that
which the elf2flt linker script has always been using: 0x20 bytes. Not
only does this bring the kernel loader in line with the toolchain, but it
also fixes a swath of gcc tests which try to force larger alignment values
but randomly fail when the FLAT loader fails to deliver.

cifs: fix page refcount leak
|
|
fscache_write_op() makes unnecessary checks of the page variable to see if it
is NULL. It can't be NULL at those points as the kernel would already have
crashed a little higher up where we examined page->index.
Furthermore, unless radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag() can return 1 but no page, a
NULL pointer crash should not be encountered there as we can only get there if
r_t_g_l_t() returned 1.

Commit 315e995c63a15cb4d4efdbfd70fe2db191917f7a is causing OOM kills
when stress-testing a CIFS filesystem. The VFS readpages operation takes
a page reference. The older code just handed this reference off to the
page cache, but the new code takes an extra one. The simplest fix is to
put the new reference after add_to_page_cache_lru.

clear_user() returns the number of bytes that could not be copied rather than
an error code. So we should return -EFAULT rather than directly returning the
results.
Without this patch, positive values may be returned to elf_fdpic_map_file()
and the following error handlings do not function as expected.
1.
ret = elf_fdpic_map_file_constdisp_on_uclinux(params, file, mm);

The lease code includes a mask in the CEPH_LOCK_* namespace, but that

Use ERR_CAST(x) rather than ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(x)). The former makes more
clear what is the purpose of the operation, which otherwise looks like a
no-op.
In the case of fs/ceph/inode.c, ERR_CAST is not needed, because the type of
the returned value is the same as the type of the enclosing function.

The underlying problem is that many mds requests can't be restarted. For
example, a restarted create() would return -EEXIST if the original request
succeeds. However, we do not want a hung MDS to hang the client too. So,
use the _killable wait_for_completion variants to abort on SIGKILL but

Introduce a new truncate calling sequence into fs/mm subsystems. Rather than
setattr > vmtruncate > truncate, have filesystems call their truncate sequence
from ->setattr if filesystem specific operations are required. vmtruncate is
deprecated, and truncate_pagecache and inode_newsize_ok helpers introduced
previously should be used.
simple_setattr is introduced for simple in-ram filesystems to implement
the new truncate sequence. Eventually all filesystems should be converted
to implement a setattr, and the default code in notify_change should go
away.
simple_setsize is also introduced to perform just the ATTR_SIZE portion
of simple_setattr (ie. changing i_size and trimming pagecache).
To implement the new truncate sequence:
- filesystem specific manipulations (eg freeing blocks) must be done in
the setattr method rather than ->truncate.
- vmtruncate can not be used by core code to trim blocks past i_size in
the event of write failure after allocation, so this must be performed
in the fs code.
- convert usage of helpers block_write_begin, nobh_write_begin,
cont_write_begin, and *blockdev_direct_IO* to use _newtrunc postfixed
variants. These avoid calling vmtruncate to trim blocks (see previous).
- inode_setattr should not be used. generic_setattr is a new function
to be used to copy simple attributes into the generic inode.
- make use of the better opportunity to handle errors with the new sequence.
Big problem with the previous calling sequence: the filesystem is not called
until i_size has already changed. This means it is not allowed to fail the
call, and also it does not know what the previous i_size was. Also, generic
code calling vmtruncate to truncate allocated blocks in case of error had
no good way to return a meaningful error (or, for example, atomically handle
block deallocation).

The MINIX filesystem driver used a constant number of indirect block
pointers in an indirect block. This worked only for filesystems with 1kb
block, while the MINIX default block size is now 4kb. As a consequence,
large files were read incorrectly on such filesystems and writing a
large file would cause the filesystem to become corrupted. This patch
computes the number of indirect block pointers based on the block size,
making the driver work for each block size.
I would like to thank Feiran Zheng ('Fam') for pointing out the cause
of the corruption.

We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently.
The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called
simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with,
the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync
which can lead to some confusion.
This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync
to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used
with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious
what to expect. In addition add some documentation for both methods.

__aio_put_req() plays sick games with file refcount. What
it wants is fput() from atomic context; it's almost always
done with f_count > 1, so they only have to deal with delayed
work in rare cases when their reference happens to be the
last one. Current code decrements f_count and if it hasn't
hit 0, everything is fine. Otherwise it keeps a pointer
to struct file (with zero f_count!) around and has delayed
work do __fput() on it.
Better way to do it: use atomic_long_add_unless( , -1, 1)
instead of !atomic_long_dec_and_test(). IOW, decrement it
only if it's not the last reference, leave refcount alone
if it was. And use normal fput() in delayed work.
I've made that atomic_long_add_unless call a new helper -
fput_atomic(). Drops a reference to file if it's safe to
do in atomic (i.e. if that's not the last one), tells if
it had been able to do that. aio.c converted to it, __fput()
use is gone. req->ki_file *always* contributes to refcount
now. And __fput() became static.

Commit 1f36f774b22a0ceb7dd33eca626746c81a97b6a5 broke FS_REVAL_DOT semantics.
In particular, before this patch, the command
ls -l
in an NFS mounted directory would always check if the directory on the server
had changed and if so would flush and refill the pagecache for the dir.
After this patch, the same "ls -l" will repeatedly return stale date until
the cached attributes for the directory time out.
The following patch fixes this by ensuring the d_revalidate is called by
do_last when "." is being looked-up.
link_path_walk has already called d_revalidate, but in that case LOOKUP_OPEN
is not set so nfs_lookup_verify_inode chooses not to do any validation.
The following patch restores the original behaviour.

Do not use the fallback default_llseek() if the readdir operation of the
filesystem still uses the big kernel lock.
Since llseek() modifies
file->f_pos of the directory directly it may need locking to not confuse
readdir which usually uses file->f_pos directly as well
Since the special characteristics of the BKL (unlocked on schedule) are
not necessary in this case, the inode mutex can be used for locking as
provided by generic_file_llseek(). This is only possible since all
filesystems, except reiserfs, either use a directory as a flat file or
with disk address offsets. Reiserfs on the other hand uses a 32bit hash
off the filename as the offset so generic_file_llseek() can get used as
well since the hash is always smaller than sb->s_maxbytes (= (512 << 32) -
blocksize).

This is an implementation of ->llseek useable for the rare special case
when userspace expects the seek to succeed but the (device) file is
actually not able to perform the seek. In this case you use noop_llseek()

The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to
64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or
EFAULT as the result of the I/O. This patch passes a compat flag to
io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb
array.
A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev. I have also updated the
libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success.
Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the
testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32
on my 64bit system). All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be
welcome.

writev AIO operations were not functioning properly. It turns out that
the code to convert the 32bit io vectors to 64 bits was never written.
The results of that can be pretty bad, but in my testing, it mostly ended
up in generating EFAULT as we walked off the list of I/O vectors provided.
This patch set fixes the problem in my environment. are greatly
appreciated.
This patch:
Factor out code that will be used by both compat_do_readv_writev and the
compat aio submission code paths.

Use ERR_CAST(x) rather than ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(x)). The former makes more
clear what is the purpose of the operation, which otherwise looks like a
no-op.
The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

Extend KCORE_TEXT to cover the pages between _text and _stext, to allow
examining some important page table pages.
`readelf -a` output on x86_64 before and after patch:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr
before LOAD 0x00007fff8100c000 0xffffffff81009000 0x0000000000000000
after LOAD 0x00007fff81003000 0xffffffff81000000 0x0000000000000000
The newly covered pages are:
0xffffffff81000000 <startup_64> etc.
0xffffffff81001000 <init_level4_pgt>
0xffffffff81002000 <level3_ident_pgt>
0xffffffff81003000 <level3_kernel_pgt>
0xffffffff81004000 <level2_fixmap_pgt>
0xffffffff81005000 <level1_fixmap_pgt>
0xffffffff81006000 <level2_ident_pgt>
0xffffffff81007000 <level2_kernel_pgt>
0xffffffff81008000 <level2_spare_pgt>
Before patch, /proc/kcore shows outdated contents for the above page
table pages, for example:
(gdb) p level3_ident_pgt
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0xffffffff81002000 <level3_ident_pgt>
(gdb) p/x *((pud_t *)&level3_ident_pgt)@512
$2 = {{pud = 0x1006063}, {pud = 0x0} <repeats 511 times>}
while the real content is:
root@hp /home/wfg# hexdump -s 0x1002000 -n 4096 /dev/mem
1002000 6063 0100 0000 0000 8067 0000 0000 0000
1002010 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
*
1003000
That is, on a x86_64 box with 2GB memory, we can see first-1GB / full-2GB
identity mapping before/after patch:
(gdb) p/x *((pud_t *)&level3_ident_pgt)@512
before $1 = {{pud = 0x1006063}, {pud = 0x0} <repeats 511 times>}
after $1 = {{pud = 0x1006063}, {pud = 0x8067}, {pud = 0x0} <repeats 510 times>}
Obviously the content before patch is wrong.

I removed 3 unused assignments. The first two get reset on the first
statement of their functions. For "err" in root.c we don't return an
error and we don't use the variable again.

Now that task->signal can't go away get_nr_threads() doesn't need
->siglock to read signal->count.
Also, make it inline, move into sched.h, and convert 2 other proc users of
signal->count to use this (now trivial) helper.
Henceforth get_nr_threads() is the only valid user of signal->count, we
are ready to turn it into "int nr_threads" or, perhaps, kill it.
