Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct autofs_info and struct autofs_wait_queue.
When creating directories and symlinks default the uid and gid of
the mount requester to the global root uid and gid. autofs4_wait
will update these fields when a mount is requested.
When generating autofsv5 packets report the uid and gid of the mount
requestor in user namespace of the process that opened the pipe,
reporting unmapped uids and gids as overflowuid and overflowgid.
In autofs_dev_ioctl_requester return the uid and gid of the last mount
requester converted into the calling processes user namespace. When the
uid or gid don't map return overflowuid and overflowgid as appropriate,
allowing failure to find a mount requester to be distinguished from
failure to map a mount requester.
The uid and gid mount options specifying the user and group of the
root autofs inode are converted into kuid and kgid as they are parsed
defaulting to the current uid and current gid of the process that
mounts autofs.
Mounting of autofs for the present remains confined to processes in
the initial user namespace.

Passing a NULL id causes a NULL pointer deference in writers such as
erst_writer and efi_pstore_write because they expect to update this id.
Pass a dummy id instead.
This avoids a cascade of oopses caused when the initial
pstore_console_write passes a null which in turn causes writes to the
console causing further oopses in subsequent pstore_console_write calls.

It is a complex wrapper around VFS functions, but there are VFS

We don't need to care about clearing the XFS_ITRUNCATED flag, as
that is done during .writepages. Hence is cleared by the VFS

When unmounting, gfs2 does a full dlm_unlock operation on every
cached lock. This can create a very large amount of work and can
take a long time to complete. However, the vast majority of these
dlm unlock operations are unnecessary because after all the unlocks
are done, gfs2 leaves the dlm lockspace, which automatically clears
the locks of the leaving node, without unlocking each one individually.
So, gfs2 can skip explicit dlm unlocks, and use dlm_release_lockspace to
remove the locks implicitly. The one exception is when the lock's lvb is
being used. In this case, dlm_unlock is called because it may update the
lvb of the resource.

For verification purposes, AGFLs need to be initialised to a known
set of values. For upcoming CRC changes, they are also headers that
need to be initialised. Currently, growfs does neither for the AGFLs
- it ignores them completely. Add initialisation of the AGFL to be
full of invalid block numbers (NULLAGBLOCK) to put the
infrastructure in place needed for CRC support.
Includes a comment clarification from Jeff Liu.

When writing the new AG headers to disk, we can't attach write
verifiers because they have a dependency on the struct xfs-perag
being attached to the buffer to be fully initialised and growfs
can't fully initialise them until later in the process.
The simplest way to avoid this problem is to use uncached buffers
for writing the new headers. These buffers don't have the xfs-perag
attached to them, so it's simple to detect in the write verifier and
be able to skip the checks that need the xfs-perag.
This enables us to attach the appropriate buffer ops to the buffer
and hence calculate CRCs on the way to disk. IT also means that the
buffer is torn down immediately, and so the first access to the AG
headers will re-read the header from disk and perform full
verification of the buffer. This way we also can catch corruptions
due to problems that went undetected in growfs.

Error handling in xfs_buf_ioapply_map() does not handle IO reference
counts correctly. We increment the b_io_remaining count before
building the bio, but then fail to decrement it in the failure case.
This leads to the buffer never running IO completion and releasing
the reference that the IO holds, so at unmount we can leak the
buffer. This leak is captured by this assert failure during unmount:
XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 273
This is not a new bug - the b_io_remaining accounting has had this
problem for a long, long time - it's just very hard to get a
zero length bio being built by this code...
Further, the buffer IO error can be overwritten on a multi-segment
buffer by subsequent bio completions for partial sections of the
buffer. Hence we should only set the buffer error status if the
buffer is not already carrying an error status. This ensures that a
partial IO error on a multi-segment buffer will not be lost. This
part of the problem is a regression, however.

When we shut down the filesystem, it might first be detected in
writeback when we are allocating a inode size transaction. This
happens after we have moved all the pages into the writeback state
and unlocked them. Unfortunately, if we fail to set up the
transaction we then abort writeback and try to invalidate the
current page. This then triggers are BUG() in block_invalidatepage()
because we are trying to invalidate an unlocked page.
Fixing this is a bit of a chicken and egg problem - we can't
allocate the transaction until we've clustered all the pages into
the IO and we know the size of it (i.e. whether the last block of
the IO is beyond the current EOF or not). However, we don't want to
hold pages locked for long periods of time, especially while we lock
other pages to cluster them into the write.
To fix this, we need to make a clear delineation in writeback where
errors can only be handled by IO completion processing. That is,
once we have marked a page for writeback and unlocked it, we have to
report errors via IO completion because we've already started the
IO. We may not have submitted any IO, but we've changed the page
state to indicate that it is under IO so we must now use the IO
completion path to report errors.
To do this, add an error field to xfs_submit_ioend() to pass it the
error that occurred during the building on the ioend chain. When
this is non-zero, mark each ioend with the error and call
xfs_finish_ioend() directly rather than building bios. This will
immediately push the ioends through completion processing with the
error that has occurred.

In certain circumstances, a double split of an attribute tree is
needed to insert or replace an attribute. In rare situations, this
can go wrong, leaving the attribute tree corrupted. In this case,
the attr being replaced is the last attr in a leaf node, and the
replacement is larger so doesn't fit in the same leaf node.
When we have the initial condition of a node format attribute
btree with two leaves at index 1 and 2. Call them L1 and L2. The
leaf L1 is completely full, there is not a single byte of free space
in it. L2 is mostly empty. The attribute being replaced - call it X
- is the last attribute in L1.
The way an attribute replace is executed is that the replacement
attribute - call it Y - is first inserted into the tree, but has an
INCOMPLETE flag set on it so that list traversals ignore it. Once
this transaction is committed, a second transaction it run to
atomically mark Y as COMPLETE and X as INCOMPLETE, so that a
traversal will now find Y and skip X. Once that transaction is
committed, attribute X is then removed.
So, the initial condition is:
+--------+ +--------+
| L1 | | L2 |
| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 |
| bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |
| fsp: 0 | | fsp: N |
|--------| |--------|
| attr A | | attr 1 |
|--------| |--------|
| attr B | | attr 2 |
|--------| |--------|
.......... ..........
|--------| |--------|
| attr X | | attr n |
+--------+ +--------+
So now we go to replace X, and see that L1:fsp = 0 - it is full so
we can't insert Y in the same leaf. So we record the the location of
attribute X so we can track it for later use, then we split L1 into
L1 and L3 and reblance across the two leafs. We end with:
+--------+ +--------+ +--------+
| L1 | | L3 | | L2 |
| fwd: 3 |---->| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 |
| bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |<----| bwd: 3 |
| fsp: M | | fsp: J | | fsp: N |
|--------| |--------| |--------|
| attr A | | attr X | | attr 1 |
|--------| +--------+ |--------|
| attr B | | attr 2 |
|--------| |--------|
.......... ..........
|--------| |--------|
| attr W | | attr n |
+--------+ +--------+
And we track that the original attribute is now at L3:0.
We then try to insert Y into L1 again, and find that there isn't
enough room because the new attribute is larger than the old one.
Hence we have to split again to make room for Y. We end up with
this:
+--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+
| L1 | | L4 | | L3 | | L2 |
| fwd: 4 |---->| fwd: 3 |---->| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 |
| bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |<----| bwd: 4 |<----| bwd: 3 |
| fsp: M | | fsp: J | | fsp: J | | fsp: N |
|--------| |--------| |--------| |--------|
| attr A | | attr Y | | attr X | | attr 1 |
|--------| + INCOMP + +--------+ |--------|
| attr B | +--------+ | attr 2 |
|--------| |--------|
.......... ..........
|--------| |--------|
| attr W | | attr n |
+--------+ +--------+
And now we have the new (incomplete) attribute @ L4:0, and the
original attribute at L3:0. At this point, the first transaction is
committed, and we move to the flipping of the flags.
This is where we are supposed to end up with this:
+--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+
| L1 | | L4 | | L3 | | L2 |
| fwd: 4 |---->| fwd: 3 |---->| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 |
| bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |<----| bwd: 4 |<----| bwd: 3 |
| fsp: M | | fsp: J | | fsp: J | | fsp: N |
|--------| |--------| |--------| |--------|
| attr A | | attr Y | | attr X | | attr 1 |
|--------| +--------+ + INCOMP + |--------|
| attr B | +--------+ | attr 2 |
|--------| |--------|
.......... ..........
|--------| |--------|
| attr W | | attr n |
+--------+ +--------+
But that doesn't happen properly - the attribute tracking indexes
are not pointing to the right locations. What we end up with is both
the old attribute to be removed pointing at L4:0 and the new
attribute at L4:1. On a debug kernel, this assert fails like so:
XFS: Assertion failed: args->index2 < be16_to_cpu(leaf2->hdr.count), file: fs/xfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c, line: 2725
because the new attribute location does not exist. On a production
kernel, this goes unnoticed and the code proceeds ahead merrily and
removes L4 because it thinks that is the block that is no longer
needed. This leaves the hash index node pointing to entries
L1, L4 and L2, but only blocks L1, L3 and L2 to exist. Further, the
leaf level sibling list is L1 <-> L4 <-> L2, but L4 is now free
space, and so everything is busted. This corruption is caused by the
removal of the old attribute triggering a join - it joins everything
correctly but then frees the wrong block.
xfs_repair will report something like:
bad sibling back pointer for block 4 in attribute fork for inode 131
problem with attribute contents in inode 131
would clear attr fork
bad nblocks 8 for inode 131, would reset to 3
bad anextents 4 for inode 131, would reset to 0
The problem lies in the assignment of the old/new blocks for
tracking purposes when the double leaf split occurs. The first split
tries to place the new attribute inside the current leaf (i.e.
"inleaf == true") and moves the old attribute (X) to the new block.
This sets up the old block/index to L1:X, and newly allocated
block to L3:0. It then moves attr X to the new block and tries to
insert attr Y at the old index. That fails, so it splits again.
With the second split, the rebalance ends up placing the new attr in
the second new block - L4:0 - and this is where the code goes wrong.
What is does is it sets both the new and old block index to the
second new block. Hence it inserts attr Y at the right place (L4:0)
but overwrites the current location of the attr to replace that is
held in the new block index (currently L3:0). It over writes it with
L4:1 - the index we later assert fail on.
Hopefully this table will show this in a foramt that is a bit easier
to understand:
Split old attr index new attr index
vanilla patched vanilla patched
before 1st L1:26 L1:26 N/A N/A
after 1st L3:0 L3:0 L1:26 L1:26
after 2nd L4:0 L3:0 L4:1 L4:0
^^^^ ^^^^
wrong wrong
The fix is surprisingly simple, for all this analysis - just stop
the rebalance on the out-of leaf case from overwriting the new attr
index - it's already correct for the double split case.

When nfsd starts, the legacy reboot recovery code creates a tracking
struct for each directory in the v4recoverydir. When the grace period
ends, it basically does a "readdir" on the directory again, and matches
each dentry in there to an existing client id to see if it should be
removed or not. If the matching client doesn't exist, or hasn't
reclaimed its state then it will remove that dentry.
This is pretty inefficient since it involves doing a lot of hash-bucket
searching. It also means that we have to keep relying on being able to
search for a nfs4_client by md5 hashed cl_recdir name.
Instead, add a pointer to the nfs4_client that indicates the association
between the nfs4_client_reclaim and nfs4_client. When a reclaim operation
comes in, we set the pointer to make that association. On gracedone, the
legacy client tracker will keep the recdir around iff:
1/ there is a reclaim record for the directory
...and...
2/ there's an association between the reclaim record and a client record
-- that is, a create or check operation was performed on the client that
matches that directory.

Anders Blomdell noted in 2010 that Fanotify lost events and provided a
test case. Eric Paris confirmed it was a bug and posted a fix to the
list
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/linux.kernel/RrJfTfyW2BE
but never applied it. Repeated attempts over time to actually get him
to apply it have never had a reply from anyone who has raised it
So apply it anyway

Revert commit 03a7beb55b9f ("epoll: support for disabling items, and a
self-test app") pending resolution of the issues identified by Michael
Kerrisk, copied below.
We'll revisit this for 3.8.
: I've taken a look at this patch as it currently stands in 3.7-rc1, and
: done a bit of testing. (By the way, the test program
: tools/testing/selftests/epoll/test_epoll.c does not compile...)
:
: There are one or two places where the behavior seems a little strange,
: so I have a question or two at the end of this mail. But other than
: that, I want to check my understanding so that the interface can be
: correctly documented.
:
: Just to go though my understanding, the problem is the following
: scenario in a multithreaded application:
:
: 1. Multiple threads are performing epoll_wait() operations,
: and maintaining a user-space cache that contains information
: corresponding to each file descriptor being monitored by
: epoll_wait().
:
: 2. At some point, a thread wants to delete (EPOLL_CTL_DEL)
: a file descriptor from the epoll interest list, and
: delete the corresponding record from the user-space cache.
:
: 3. The problem with (2) is that some other thread may have
: previously done an epoll_wait() that retrieved information
: about the fd in question, and may be in the middle of using
: information in the cache that relates to that fd. Thus,
: there is a potential race.
:
: 4. The race can't solved purely in user space, because doing
: so would require applying a mutex across the epoll_wait()
: call, which would of course blow thread concurrency.
:
: Right?
:
: Your solution is the EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE operation. I want to
: confirm my understanding about how to use this flag, since
: the description that has accompanied the patches so far
: has been a bit sparse
:
: 0. In the scenario you're concerned about, deleting a file
: descriptor means (safely) doing the following:
: (a) Deleting the file descriptor from the epoll interest list
: using EPOLL_CTL_DEL
: (b) Deleting the corresponding record in the user-space cache
:
: 1. It's only meaningful to use this EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE in
: conjunction with EPOLLONESHOT.
:
: 2. Using EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE without using EPOLLONESHOT in
: conjunction is a logical error.
:
: 3. The correct way to code multithreaded applications using
: EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE and EPOLLONESHOT is as follows:
:
: a. All EPOLL_CTL_ADD and EPOLL_CTL_MOD operations should
: should EPOLLONESHOT.
:
: b. When a thread wants to delete a file descriptor, it
: should do the following:
:
: [1] Call epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE)
: [2] If the return status from epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE)
: was zero, then the file descriptor can be safely
: deleted by the thread that made this call.
: [3] If the epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE) fails with EBUSY,
: then the descriptor is in use. In this case, the calling
: thread should set a flag in the user-space cache to
: indicate that the thread that is using the descriptor
: should perform the deletion operation.
:
: Is all of the above correct?
:
: The implementation depends on checking on whether
: (events & ~EP_PRIVATE_BITS) == 0
: This replies on the fact that EPOLL_CTL_AD and EPOLL_CTL_MOD always
: set EPOLLHUP and EPOLLERR in the 'events' mask, and EPOLLONESHOT
: causes those flags (as well as all others in ~EP_PRIVATE_BITS) to be
: cleared.
:
: A corollary to the previous paragraph is that using EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE
: is only useful in conjunction with EPOLLONESHOT. However, as things
: stand, one can use EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE on a file descriptor that does
: not have EPOLLONESHOT set in 'events' This results in the following
: (slightly surprising) behavior:
:
: (a) The first call to epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE) returns 0
: (the indicator that the file descriptor can be safely deleted).
: (b) The next call to epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE) fails with EBUSY.
:
: This doesn't seem particularly useful, and in fact is probably an
: indication that the user made a logic error: they should only be using
: epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE) on a file descriptor for which
: EPOLLONESHOT was set in 'events'. If that is correct, then would it
: not make sense to return an error to user space for this case?

This patch makes ext4 really support SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE flags. Block-mapped
and extent-mapped files are fully implemented together because ext4_map_blocks
hides this differences.
After applying this patch, it will cause a failure in xfstest #285 when the file
is block-mapped due to block-mapped file isn't support fallocate(2).
I had tried to use ext4_ext_walk_space() to retrieve the offset for a
extent-mapped file. But finally I decide to keep using ext4_map_blocks() to
support SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE because ext4_map_blocks() can hide the difference
between block-mapped file and extent-mapped file. Moreover, in next step,
extent status tree will track all extent status, and we can get all mappings
from this tree. So I think that using ext4_map_blocks() is a better choice.

This patch lets ext4 maintain extent status tree.
Currently it only tracks delay extent status in extent status tree. When a
delay allocation is issued, the related delay extent will be inserted into
extent status tree. When a delay extent is written out or invalidated, it will
be removed from this tree.
