2010-03-05pass writeback_control to ->write_inodeChristoph Hellwig
This gives the filesystem more information about the writeback that is happening. Trond requested this for the NFS unstable write handling, and other filesystems might benefit from this too by beeing able to distinguish between the different callers in more detail.

2010-03-05make sure data is on disk before calling ->write_inodeChristoph Hellwig
Similar to the fsync issue fixed a while ago in commit 2daea67e966dc0c42067ebea015ddac6834cef88 we need to write for data to actually hit the disk before writing out the metadata to guarantee data integrity for filesystems that modify the inode in the data I/O completion path. Currently XFS and NFS handle this manually, and AFS has a write_inode method that does nothing but waiting for data, while others are possibly missing out on this. Fortunately this change has a lot less impact than the fsync change as none of the write_inode methods starts data writeout of any form by itself.

Add a new UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW flag to umount(2). This is needed to prevent symlink attacks in unprivileged unmounts (fuse, samba, ncpfs). Additionally, return -EINVAL if an unknown flag is used (and specify an explicitly unused flag: UMOUNT_UNUSED). This makes it possible for the caller to determine if a flag is supported or not.

2010-03-03VFS: Clean up shared mount flag propagationValerie Aurora
The handling of mount flags in set_mnt_shared() got a little tangled up during previous cleanups, with the following problems: * MNT_PNODE_MASK is defined as a literal constant when it should be a bitwise xor of other MNT_* flags * set_mnt_shared() clears and then sets MNT_SHARED (part of MNT_PNODE_MASK) * MNT_PNODE_MASK could use a comment in mount.h * MNT_PNODE_MASK is a terrible name, change to MNT_SHARED_MASK This patch fixes these problems.

We either get CL_MAKE_SHARED (for the continuation of peer group) or CL_SLAVE (slave that is not shared) or both (beginning of peer group among slaves). Massage the code to make that explicit, kill CL_PROPAGATION test in clone_mnt() (nothing sets CL_MAKE_SHARED without CL_PROPAGATION and in clone_mnt() we are checking CL_PROPAGATION after we'd found that there's no CL_SLAVE, so the check for CL_MAKE_SHARED would do just as well).

2010-03-03fs: improve remount,ro vs buffercache coherencyNick Piggin
Invalidate sb->s_bdev on remount,ro. Fixes a problem reported by Jorge Boncompte who is seeing corruption trying to snapshot a minix filesystem image. Some filesystems modify their metadata via a path other than the bdev buffer cache (eg. they may use a private linear mapping for their metadata, or implement directories in pagecache, etc). Also, file data modifications usually go to the bdev via their own mappings. These updates are not coherent with buffercache IO (eg. via /dev/bdev) and never have been. However there could be a reasonable expectation that after a mount -oremount,ro operation then the buffercache should subsequently be coherent with previous filesystem modifications. So invalidate the bdev mappings on a remount,ro operation to provide a coherency point. The problem was exposed when we switched the old rd to brd because old rd didn't really function like a normal block device and updates to rd via mappings other than the buffercache would still end up going into its buffercache. But the same problem has always affected other "normal" block devices, including loop.

2010-03-02Ocfs2: Move ocfs2 ioctl definitions from ocfs2_fs.h to newly added ocfs2_ioctl.hTristan Ye
Currently we were adding ioctl cmds/structures for ocfs2 into ocfs2_fs.h which was used for define ocfs2 on-disk layout. That sounds a little bit confusing, and it may be quickly polluted espcially when growing the ocfs2_info_request ioctls afterwards(it will grow i bet). As a result, such OCFS2 IOCs do need to be placed somewhere other than ocfs2_fs.h, a separated ocfs2_ioctl.h will be added to store such ioctl structures and definitions which could also be used from userspace to invoke ioctls call.
