2010-12-10NFS: Fix panic after nfs_umount()Chuck Lever
After a few unsuccessful NFS mount attempts in which the client and server cannot agree on an authentication flavor both support, the client panics. nfs_umount() is invoked in the kernel in this case. Turns out nfs_umount()'s UMNT RPC invocation causes the RPC client to write off the end of the rpc_clnt's iostat array. This is because the mount client's nrprocs field is initialized with the count of defined procedures (two: MNT and UMNT), rather than the size of the client's proc array (four). The fix is to use the same initialization technique used by most other upper layer clients in the kernel. Introduced by commit 0b524123, which failed to update nrprocs when support was added for UMNT in the kernel.

2010-12-09Ocfs2: Teach 'coherency=full' O_DIRECT writes to correctly up_read i_alloc_sem.Tristan Ye
Due to newly-introduced 'coherency=full' O_DIRECT writes also takes the EX rw_lock like buffered writes did(rw_level == 1), it turns out messing the usage of 'level' in ocfs2_dio_end_io() up, which caused i_alloc_sem being failed to get up_read'd correctly. This patch tries to teach ocfs2_dio_end_io to understand well on all locking stuffs by explicitly introducing a new bit for i_alloc_sem in iocb's private data, just like what we did for rw_lock.

2010-12-09ocfs2/dlm: Migrate lockres with no locks if it has a referenceSunil Mushran
o2dlm was not migrating resources with zero locks because it assumed that that resource would get purged by dlm_thread. However, some usage patterns involve creating and dropping locks at a high rate leading to the migrate thread seeing zero locks but the purge thread seeing an active reference. When this happens, the dlm_thread cannot purge the resource and the migrate thread sees no reason to migrate that resource. The spell is broken when the migrate thread catches the resource with a lock. The fix is to make the migrate thread also consider the reference map. This usage pattern can be triggered by userspace on userdlm locks and flocks. Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

2010-12-09xfs: log timestamp changes to the source inode in renameChristoph Hellwig
Now that we don't mark VFS inodes dirty anymore for internal timestamp changes, but rely on the transaction subsystem to push them out, we need to explicitly log the source inode in rename after updating it's timestamps to make sure the changes actually get forced out by sync/fsync or an AIL push. We already account for the fourth inode in the log reservation, as a rename of directories needs to update the nlink field, so just adding the xfs_trans_log_inode call is enough.

2010-12-09Btrfs: deal with space cache errors betterJosef Bacik
Currently if the space cache inode generation number doesn't match the generation number in the space cache header we will just fail to load the space cache, but we won't mark the space cache as an error, so we'll keep getting that error each time somebody tries to cache that block group until we actually clear the thing. Fix this by marking the space cache as having an error so we only get the message once. This patch also makes it so that we don't try and setup space cache for a block group that isn't cached, since we won't be able to write it out anyway. None of these problems are actual problems, they are just annoying and sub-optimal. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>

2010-12-07nfs: remove extraneous and problematic calls to nfs_clear_requestTrond Myklebust
When a nfs_page is freed, nfs_free_request is called which also calls nfs_clear_request to clean out the lock and open contexts and free the pagecache page. However, a couple of places in the nfs code call nfs_clear_request themselves. What happens here if the refcount on the request is still high? We'll be releasing contexts and freeing pointers while the request is possibly still in use. Remove those bare calls to nfs_clear_context. That should only be done when the request is being freed. Note that when doing this, we need to watch out for tests of req->wb_page. Previously, nfs_set_page_tag_locked() and nfs_clear_page_tag_locked() would check the value of req->wb_page to figure out if the page is mapped into the nfsi->nfs_page_tree. We now indicate the page is mapped using the new bit PG_MAPPED in req->wb_flags . Reported-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2010-12-07fanotify: on group destroy allow all waiters to bypass permission checkLino Sanfilippo
When fanotify_release() is called, there may still be processes waiting for access permission. Currently only processes for which an event has already been queued into the groups access list will be woken up. Processes for which no event has been queued will continue to sleep and thus cause a deadlock when fsnotify_put_group() is called. Furthermore there is a race allowing further processes to be waiting on the access wait queue after wake_up (if they arrive before clear_marks_by_group() is called). This patch corrects this by setting a flag to inform processes that the group is about to be destroyed and thus not to wait for access permission. [additional changelog from eparis] Lets think about the 4 relevant code paths from the PoV of the 'operator' 'listener' 'responder' and 'closer'. Where operator is the process doing an action (like open/read) which could require permission. Listener is the task (or in this case thread) slated with reading from the fanotify file descriptor. The 'responder' is the thread responsible for responding to access requests. 'Closer' is the thread attempting to close the fanotify file descriptor. The 'operator' is going to end up in: fanotify_handle_event() get_response_from_access() (THIS BLOCKS WAITING ON USERSPACE) The 'listener' interesting code path fanotify_read() copy_event_to_user() prepare_for_access_response() (THIS CREATES AN fanotify_response_event) The 'responder' code path: fanotify_write() process_access_response() (REMOVE A fanotify_response_event, SET RESPONSE, WAKE UP 'operator') The 'closer': fanotify_release() (SUPPOSED TO CLEAN UP THE REST OF THIS MESS) What we have today is that in the closer we remove all of the fanotify_response_events and set a bit so no more response events are ever created in prepare_for_access_response(). The bug is that we never wake all of the operators up and tell them to move along. You fix that in fanotify_get_response_from_access(). You also fix other operators which haven't gotten there yet. So I agree that's a good fix.

2010-12-07fanotify: correct broken ref counting in case adding a mark failedLino Sanfilippo
If adding a mount or inode mark failed fanotify_free_mark() is called explicitly. But at this time the mark has already been put into the destroy list of the fsnotify_mark kernel thread. If the thread is too slow it will try to decrease the reference of a mark, that has already been freed by fanotify_free_mark(). (If its fast enough it will only decrease the marks ref counter from 2 to 1 - note that the counter has been increased to 2 in add_mark() - which has practically no effect.) This patch fixes the ref counting by not calling free_mark() explicitly, but decreasing the ref counter and rely on the fsnotify_mark thread to cleanup in case adding the mark has failed.

Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes on a machine with lots of memory can take up to 30 minutes to process FORGET requests when all those inodes are evicted from the icache. To solve this, create a BATCH_FORGET request that allows up to about 8000 FORGET requests to be sent in a single message.

2010-12-07fuse: separate queue for FORGET requestsMiklos Szeredi
Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30 minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache. The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted, are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem operation can proceed. Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these take up quite a bit of memory as well. To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET request and chain these on a separate queue. When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow 16 FORGET requests. This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs are processed.

2010-12-21xfs: make AIL tail pushing independent of the grant lockDave Chinner
The xlog_grant_push_ail() currently takes the grant lock internally to sample the tail lsn, last sync lsn and the reserve grant head. Most of the callers already hold the grant lock but have to drop it before calling xlog_grant_push_ail(). This is a left over from when the AIL tail pushing was done in line and hence xlog_grant_push_ail had to drop the grant lock. AIL push is now done in another thread and hence we can safely hold the grant lock over the entire xlog_grant_push_ail call. Push the grant lock outside of xlog_grant_push_ail() to simplify the locking and synchronisation needed for tail pushing. This will reduce traffic on the grant lock by itself, but this is only one step in preparing for the complete removal of the grant lock. While there, clean up the formatting of xlog_grant_push_ail() to match the rest of the XFS code. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2010-12-21xfs: use wait queues directly for the log wait queuesDave Chinner
The log grant queues are one of the few places left using sv_t constructs for waiting. Given we are touching this code, we should convert them to plain wait queues. While there, convert all the other sv_t users in the log code as well. Seeing as this removes the last users of the sv_t type, remove the header file defining the wrapper and the fragments that still reference it.

2010-12-21xfs: combine grant heads into a single 64 bit integerDave Chinner
Prepare for switching the grant heads to atomic variables by combining the two 32 bit values that make up the grant head into a single 64 bit variable. Provide wrapper functions to combine and split the grant heads appropriately for calculations and use them as necessary.
