2009-12-15procfs: allow threads to rename siblings via /proc/pid/tasks/tid/commjohn stultz
Setting a thread's comm to be something unique is a very useful ability and is helpful for debugging complicated threaded applications. However currently the only way to set a thread name is for the thread to name itself via the PR_SET_NAME prctl. However, there may be situations where it would be advantageous for a thread dispatcher to be naming the threads its managing, rather then having the threads self-describe themselves. This sort of behavior is available on other systems via the pthread_setname_np() interface. This patch exports a task's comm via proc/pid/comm and proc/pid/task/tid/comm interfaces, and allows thread siblings to write to these values.

2009-12-15nommu: fix malloc performance by adding uninitialized flagJie Zhang
The NOMMU code currently clears all anonymous mmapped memory. While this is what we want in the default case, all memory allocation from userspace under NOMMU has to go through this interface, including malloc() which is allowed to return uninitialized memory. This can easily be a significant performance penalty. So for constrained embedded systems were security is irrelevant, allow people to avoid clearing memory unnecessarily. This also alters the ELF-FDPIC binfmt such that it obtains uninitialised memory for the brk and stack region.

2009-12-15hfs: fix a potential buffer overflowAmerigo Wang
A specially-crafted Hierarchical File System (HFS) filesystem could cause a buffer overflow to occur in a process's kernel stack during a memcpy() call within the hfs_bnode_read() function (at fs/hfs/bnode.c:24). The attacker can provide the source buffer and length, and the destination buffer is a local variable of a fixed length. This local variable (passed as "&entry" from fs/hfs/dir.c:112 and allocated on line 60) is stored in the stack frame of hfs_bnode_read()'s caller, which is hfs_readdir(). Because the hfs_readdir() function executes upon any attempt to read a directory on the filesystem, it gets called whenever a user attempts to inspect any filesystem contents.

2009-12-14udf: Avoid IO in udf_clear_inodeJan Kara
It is not very good to do IO in udf_clear_inode. First, VFS does not really expect inode to become dirty there and thus we have to write it ourselves, second, memory reclaim gets blocked waiting for IO when it does not really expect it, third, the IO pattern (e.g. on umount) resulting from writes in udf_clear_inode is bad and it slows down writing a lot. The reason why UDF needed to do IO in udf_clear_inode is that UDF standard mandates extent length to exactly match inode size. But when we allocate extents to a file or directory, we don't really know what exactly the final file size will be and thus temporarily set it to block boundary and later truncate it to exact length in udf_clear_inode. Now, this is changed to truncate to final file size in udf_release_file for regular files. For directories and symlinks, we do the truncation at the moment when learn what the final file size will be. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

2009-12-11devpts_get_tty() should validate inodeSukadev Bhattiprolu
devpts_get_tty() assumes that the inode passed in is associated with a valid pty. But if the only reference to the pty is via a bind-mount, the inode passed to devpts_get_tty() while valid, would refer to a pty that no longer exists. With a lot of debug effort, Grzegorz Nosek developed a small program (see below) to reproduce a crash on recent kernels. This crash is a regression introduced by the commit: commit 527b3e4773628b30d03323a2cb5fb0d84441990f Author: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@us.ibm.com> Date: Mon Oct 13 10:43:08 2008 +0100 To fix, ensure that the dentry associated with the inode has not yet been deleted/unhashed by devpts_pty_kill().

2009-12-11xfs: Wrapped journal record corruption on read at recoveryAndy Poling
Summary of problem: If a journal record wraps at the physical end of the journal, it has to be read in two parts in xlog_do_recovery_pass(): a read at the physical end and a read at the physical beginning. If xlog_bread() has to re-align the first read, the second read request does not take that re-alignment into account. If the first read was re-aligned, the second read over-writes the end of the data from the first read, effectively corrupting it. This can happen either when reading the record header or reading the record data. The first sanity check in xlog_recover_process_data() is to check for a valid clientid, so that is the error reported. Summary of fix: If there was a first read at the physical end, XFS_BUF_PTR() returns where the data was requested to begin. Conversely, because it is the result of xlog_align(), offset indicates where the requested data for the first read actually begins - whether or not xlog_bread() has re-aligned it. Using offset as the base for the calculation of where to place the second read data ensures that it will be correctly placed immediately following the data from the first read instead of sometimes over-writing the end of it. The attached patch has resolved the reported problem of occasional inability to recover the journal (reporting "bad clientid").

2009-12-11xfs: use WRITE_SYNC_PLUG for synchronous writeoutChristoph Hellwig
The VM and I/O schedulers now expect us to use WRITE_SYNC_PLUG for synchronous writeout. Right now I can't see any changes in performance numbers with this, but we're getting some beating for not using it, and the knowledge definitely could help the block code to make better decisions.

2009-12-11xfs: reset the i_iolock lock class in the reclaim pathChristoph Hellwig
The iolock is used for protecting reads, writes and block truncates against each other. We have two classes of callers, the first one is induced by a file operation and requires a reference to the inode be held and not dropped after the operation is done: - xfs_vm_vmap, xfs_vn_fallocate, xfs_read, xfs_write, xfs_splice_read, xfs_splice_write and xfs_setattr are all implementations of VFS methods that require a live inode - xfs_getbmap and xfs_swap_extents are ioctl subcommand for which the same is true - xfs_truncate_file is only called on quota inodes just returned from xfs_iget - xfs_sync_inode_data does the lock just after an igrab() - xfs_filestream_associate and xfs_filestream_new_ag take the iolock on the parent inode of an inode which by VFS rules must be referenced And we have various calls to truncate blocks past EOF or the whole file when dropping the last reference to an inode. Unfortunately lockdep complains when we do memory allocations that can recurse into the filesystem in the first class because the second class happens to take the same lock. To avoid this re-init the iolock in the beginning of xfs_fs_clear_inode to get a new lock class.

2009-12-11xfs: I/O completion handlers must use NOFS allocationsChristoph Hellwig
When completing I/O requests we must not allow the memory allocator to recurse into the filesystem, as we might deadlock on waiting for the I/O completion otherwise. The only thing currently allocating normal GFP_KERNEL memory is the allocation of the transaction structure for the unwritten extent conversion. Add a memflags argument to _xfs_trans_alloc to allow controlling the allocator behaviour.

2009-12-11xfs: fix mmap_sem/iolock inversion in xfs_free_eofblocksChristoph Hellwig
When xfs_free_eofblocks is called from ->release the VM might already hold the mmap_sem, but in the write path we take the iolock before taking the mmap_sem in the generic write code. Switch xfs_free_eofblocks to only trylock the iolock if called from ->release and skip trimming the prellocated blocks in that case. We'll still free them later on the final iput.

2009-12-11xfs: simplify inode teardownChristoph Hellwig
Currently the reclaim code for the case where we don't reclaim the final reclaim is overly complicated. We know that the inode is clean but instead of just directly reclaiming the clean inode we go through the whole process of marking the inode reclaimable just to directly reclaim it from the calling context. Besides being overly complicated this introduces a race where iget could recycle an inode between marked reclaimable and actually being reclaimed leading to panics. This patch gets rid of the existing reclaim path, and replaces it with a simple call to xfs_ireclaim if the inode was clean. While we're at it we also use the slightly more lax xfs_inode_clean check we'd use later to determine if we need to flush the inode here. Finally get rid of xfs_reclaim function and place the remaining small bits of reclaim code directly into xfs_fs_destroy_inode.

2009-12-11sysfs: Propagate renames to the vfs on demandEric W. Biederman
By teaching sysfs_revalidate to hide a dentry for a sysfs_dirent if the sysfs_dirent has been renamed, and by teaching sysfs_lookup to return the original dentry if the sysfs dirent has been renamed. I can show the results of renames correctly without having to update the dcache during the directory rename. This massively simplifies the rename logic allowing a lot of weird sysfs special cases to be removed along with a lot of now unnecesary helper code.
