2012-01-03vfs: fix the rest of sget() racesAl Viro
unfortunately, just checking MS_BORN after having grabbed ->s_umount in sget() is not enough; places that pick superblock from a list and grab s_umount shared need the same check in addition to checking for ->s_root; otherwise three-way race between failing mount, sget() and such list-walker can leave us with list-walker coming *second*, when temporary active ref grabbed by sget() (to be dropped when sget() notices that original mount has failed by checking MS_BORN) has lead to deactivate_locked_super() from failing ->mount() *not* doing ->kill_sb() and just releasing ->s_umount. Once sget() gets through and notices that MS_BORN had never been set it will drop the active ref and fs will be shut down and kicked out of all lists, but it's too late for something like sync_supers().

2012-01-03vfs: fix the stupidity with i_dentry in inode destructorsAl Viro
Seeing that just about every destructor got that INIT_LIST_HEAD() copied into it, there is no point whatsoever keeping this INIT_LIST_HEAD in inode_init_once(); the cost of taking it into inode_init_always() will be negligible for pipes and sockets and negative for everything else. Not to mention the removal of boilerplate code from ->destroy_inode() instances... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

tomoyo/realpath.c needs exactly one include - that of common.h. It pulls everything the thing needs, without doing ridiculous garbage such as trying to include ../../fs/internal.h.

2012-01-03vfs: more mnt_parent cleanupsAl Viro
a) mount --move is checking that ->mnt_parent is non-NULL before looking if that parent happens to be shared; ->mnt_parent is never NULL and it's not even an misspelled !mnt_has_parent() b) pivot_root open-codes is_path_reachable(), poorly. c) so does path_is_under(), while we are at it.

2012-01-03vfs: new internal helper: mnt_has_parent(mnt)Al Viro
vfsmounts have ->mnt_parent pointing either to a different vfsmount or to itself; it's never NULL and termination condition in loops traversing the tree towards root is mnt == mnt->mnt_parent. At least one place (see the next patch) is confused about what's going on; let's add an explicit helper checking it right way and use it in all places where we need it.

2012-01-03Revert "rtc: Disable the alarm in the hardware"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit c0afabd3d553c521e003779c127143ffde55a16f. It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm, it actually seems to enable it on the affected laptops, resulting in (for example) the laptop powering on automatically five minutes after shutdown. There's a patch for it that appears to work for at least some people, but it's too late to play around with this, so revert for now and try again in the next merge window.

2012-01-03security: Fix security_old_inode_init_security() when CONFIG_SECURITY is not setJan Kara
Commit 1e39f384bb01 ("evm: fix build problems") makes the stub version of security_old_inode_init_security() return 0 when CONFIG_SECURITY is not set. But that makes callers such as reiserfs_security_init() assume that security_old_inode_init_security() has set name, value, and len arguments properly - but security_old_inode_init_security() left them uninitialized which then results in interesting failures. Revert security_old_inode_init_security() to the old behavior of returning EOPNOTSUPP since both callers (reiserfs and ocfs2) handle this just fine. [ Also fixed the S_PRIVATE(inode) case of the actual non-stub security_old_inode_init_security() function to return EOPNOTSUPP for the same reason, as pointed out by Mimi Zohar. It got incorrectly changed to match the new function in commit fb88c2b6cbb1: "evm: fix security/security_old_init_security return code". - Linus ] Reported-by: Jorge Bastos <mysql.jorge@decimal.pt> Acked-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Acked-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-12-31futex: Fix uninterruptible loop due to gate_areaHugh Dickins
It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the ZERO_PAGE issue. While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping. And are there still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping, and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail? In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all: Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem, because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to interfere when the page reference count is raised. But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount. Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.

2011-12-31netfilter: ctnetlink: fix timeout calculationXi Wang
The sanity check (timeout < 0) never works; the dividend is unsigned and so is the division, which should have been a signed division. long timeout = (ct->timeout.expires - jiffies) / HZ; if (timeout < 0) timeout = 0; This patch converts the time values to signed for the division.
