2009-09-08ext[234]: move over to 'check_acl' permission modelLinus Torvalds
Don't implement per-filesystem 'extX_permission()' functions that have to be called for every path component operation, and instead just expose the actual ACL checking so that the VFS layer can now do it for us.

2009-09-08Make 'check_acl()' a first-class filesystem opLinus Torvalds
This is stage one in flattening out the callchains for the common permission testing. Rather than have most filesystem implement their own inode->i_op->permission function that just calls back down to the VFS layers 'generic_permission()' with the per-filesystem ACL checking function, the filesystem can just expose its 'check_acl' function directly, and let the VFS layer do everything for it. This is all just preparatory - no filesystem actually enables this yet.

2009-09-08Simplify exec_permission_lite(), part 3Linus Torvalds
Don't call down to the generic inode_permission() function just to call the inode-specific permission function - just do it directly. The generic inode_permission() code does things like checking MAY_WRITE and devcgroup_inode_permission(), neither of which are relevant for the light pathname walk permission checks (we always do just MAY_EXEC, and the inode is never a special device).

2009-09-08Simplify exec_permission_lite() furtherLinus Torvalds
This function is only called for path components that are already known to be directories (they have a '->lookup' method). So don't bother doing that whole S_ISDIR() testing, the whole point of the 'lite()' version is that we know that we are looking at a directory component, and that we're only checking name lookup permission.

2009-09-08Do not call 'ima_path_check()' for each path componentLinus Torvalds
Not only is that a supremely timing-critical path, but it's hopefully some day going to be lockless for the common case, and ima can't do that. Plus the integrity code doesn't even care about non-regular files, so it was always a total waste of time and effort.

Failing that, the pkmap reference count is never decremented and the page remains pinned forever.

2009-09-05exec: do not sleep in TASK_TRACED under ->cred_guard_mutexOleg Nesterov
Tom Horsley reports that his debugger hangs when it tries to read /proc/pid_of_tracee/maps, this happens since "mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec" 04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d commit in 2.6.31. But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC. The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(), another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the tracee resumes. With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and we do not hold it throughout, instead: - introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred. - install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(), and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop(). or, if exec fails, free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

This resolve a bug, but it isn't completed and the dentry is still there. When we want to use it again, ocfs2_dentry_revalidate doesn't catch it and return true. That make future ocfs2_dentry_lock panic out. One bug is http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1162.

Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0' byte to user space after the filename. Since the rewrite that terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of event_size. Ouch! So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the strange nul_inotify_event. I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to do.

Commit 76db6d9500caeaa774a3e32a997eba30bbdc176b (nfs41: add session setup to the state manager) introduces an infinite loop possibility in the NFSv4 state manager. By first checking nfs4_has_session() before clearing the NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP flag, it allows for a situation where someone sets that flag, but it never gets cleared, and so the state manager loops.

2009-08-24mm: fix hugetlb bug due to user_shm_unlock callHugh Dickins
2.6.30's commit 8a0bdec194c21c8fdef840989d0d7b742bb5d4bc removed user_shm_lock() calls in hugetlb_file_setup() but left the user_shm_unlock call in shm_destroy(). In detail: Assume that can_do_hugetlb_shm() returns true and hence user_shm_lock() is not called in hugetlb_file_setup(). However, user_shm_unlock() is called in any case in shm_destroy() and in the following atomic_dec_and_lock(&up->__count) in free_uid() is executed and if up->__count gets zero, also cleanup_user_struct() is scheduled. Note that sched_destroy_user() is empty if CONFIG_USER_SCHED is not set. However, the ref counter up->__count gets unexpectedly non-positive and the corresponding structs are freed even though there are live references to them, resulting in a kernel oops after a lots of shmget(SHM_HUGETLB)/shmctl(IPC_RMID) cycles and CONFIG_USER_SCHED set. Hugh changed Stefan's suggested patch: can_do_hugetlb_shm() at the time of shm_destroy() may give a different answer from at the time of hugetlb_file_setup(). And fixed newseg()'s no_id error path, which has missed user_shm_unlock() ever since it came in 2.6.9.

2009-08-24ext3: Improve error message that changing journaling mode on remount is not ↵Jan Kara
possible This patch makes the error message about changing journaling mode on remount more descriptive. Some people are going to hit this error now due to commit bbae8bcc49bc4d002221dab52c79a50a82e7cd1f if they configure a kernel to default to data=writeback mode. The problem happens if they have data=ordered set for the root filesystem in /etc/fstab but not in the kernel command line (and they don't use initrd). Their filesystem then gets mounted as data=writeback by kernel but then their boot fails because init scripts won't be able to remount the filesystem rw. Better error message will hopefully make it easier for them to find the error in their setup and bother us less with error reports :). Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2009-08-24ext3: Update Kconfig description of EXT3_DEFAULTS_TO_ORDEREDTheodore Ts'o
The old description for this configuration option was perhaps not completely balanced in terms of describing the tradeoffs of using a default of data=writeback vs. data=ordered. Despite the fact that old description very strongly recomended disabling this feature, all of the major distributions have elected to preserve the existing 'legacy' default, which is a strong hint that it perhaps wasn't telling the whole story. This revised description has been vetted by a number of ext3 developers as being better at informing the user about the tradeoffs of enabling or disabling this configuration feature.

2009-08-21Re-introduce page mapping check in mark_buffer_dirty()Linus Torvalds
In commit a8e7d49aa7be728c4ae241a75a2a124cdcabc0c5 ("Fix race in create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers()"), I removed a test for a NULL page mapping unintentionally when some of the code inside __set_page_dirty() was moved to the callers. That removal generally didn't matter, since a filesystem would serialize truncation (which clears the page mapping) against writing (which marks the buffer dirty), so locking at a higher level (either per-page or an inode at a time) should mean that the buffer page would be stable. And indeed, nothing bad seemed to happen. Except it turns out that apparently reiserfs does something odd when under load and writing out the journal, and we have a number of bugzilla entries that look similar: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13556 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13756 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13876 and it looks like reiserfs depended on that check (the common theme seems to be "data=journal", and a journal writeback during a truncate). I suspect reiserfs should have some additional locking, but in the meantime this should get us back to the pre-2.6.29 behavior.

Node may not be inserted over existing node. This causes inode tree corruption and I was seeing crashes in inode_tree_del which I can not reproduce after this patch.

2009-08-20ocfs2/dlm: Wait on lockres instead of erroring cancel requestsGoldwyn Rodrigues
In case a downconvert is queued, and a flock receives a signal, BUG_ON(lockres->l_action != OCFS2_AST_INVALID) is triggered because a lock cancel triggers a dlmunlock while an AST is scheduled. To avoid this, allow a LKM_CANCEL to pass through, and let it wait on __dlm_wait_on_lockres().

2009-08-18mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value"KOSAKI Motohiro
The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM. However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process. Why? His program has the code of similar to the following. ... set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */ ... if (vfork() == 0) { set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */ execve("foo-bar-cmd"); } .... vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler) lost OOM immune and it was killed. Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program. We must not break this assumption. Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

This turns out to be a bug brought by an -rc1 patch ("nilfs2: simplify remaining sget() use"). In the patch, a new "put resource" function, nilfs_put_sbinfo() was introduced to delay freeing nilfs_sb_info struct. But the nilfs_put_sbinfo() mistakenly used atomic_dec_and_test() function to check the reference count, and it caused the nilfs_sb_info was freed when user mounted a snapshot twice. This bug also suggests there was unseen memory leak in usual mount /umount operations for nilfs. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
