2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: parametrize various transport connect timeoutsChuck Lever
Each transport implementation can now set unique bind, connect, reestablishment, and idle timeout values. These are variables, allowing the values to be modified dynamically. This permits exponential backoff of any of these values, for instance. As an example, we implement exponential backoff for the connection reestablishment timeout. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Connectathon with UDP and TCP.

2005-09-23[PATCH] NFS: use a constant value for TCP retransmit timeoutsChuck Lever
Implement a best practice: don't use exponential backoff when computing retransmit timeout values on TCP connections, but simply retransmit at regular intervals. This also fixes a bug introduced when xprt_reset_majortimeo() was added. Test-plan: Enable RPC debugging and watch timeout behavior on a NFS/TCP mount.

2005-09-23NFS: Drop inode after renameTrond Myklebust
When doing a rename on top of an existing file that is not in use, the inode of the overwritten file will remain in the icache. The fix is to decrement i_nlink of the overwritten inode, like we do for unlink, rmdir etc already. Problem diagnosed by Olaf Kirch. This patch is a slight variation on his fix.

If error occurs while in v9fs_get_sb after it calles sget, the dentry object of the root and its inode may be freed twice -- once while handling the error in v9fs_get_sb, and second time when v9fs_get_sb calles deactivate_super (which in turn calls v9fs_kill_super) The patch removes the unnecessary code that frees the root dentry and its inode.

2005-09-22[PATCH] v9fs: make copy of the transport prototype instead of using it directlyLatchesar Ionkov
When a new session is created it uses a template object of the specified transport type to instantiate its own copy. The code for the making a copy of the template object was lost, and the object itself is attached to the v9fs session. This leads to many sessions using the same transport instead of having their own copy. The patch puts back the code that makes a copy of the template object.

2005-09-22[PATCH] v9fs: make conv functions to check for conv buffer overflowLatchesar Ionkov
buf_check_size function checks if the conv buffer has enough space for the performed operation, but it doesn't return the result back to the calling function, only logs an error in the log. The report-back-error functionality was lost when buf_check_size was converted from macro to inline function. The return in the macro used to exit from the functions that include it, after the conversion it just exits from the inline function itself. The patch makes buf_check_size to return flag and all functions that use it check if they should perform the operation, or exit.

2005-09-14[PATCH] error path in setup_arg_pages() misses vm_unacct_memory()Hugh Dickins
Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants). These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't. So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into Committed_AS each time they're run. But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them, it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved. The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set. And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking. Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory: give it a less misleading name later on.

2005-09-14[PATCH] Fix fs/exec.c:788 (de_thread()) BUG_ONAlexander Nyberg
It turns out that the BUG_ON() in fs/exec.c: de_thread() is unreliable and can trigger due to the test itself being racy. de_thread() does while (atomic_read(&sig->count) > count) { } ..... ..... BUG_ON(!thread_group_empty(current)); but release_task does write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock) __exit_signal (this is where atomic_dec(&sig->count) is run) __exit_sighand __unhash_process takes write lock on tasklist_lock remove itself out of PIDTYPE_TGID list write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock) so there's a clear (although small) window between the atomic_dec(&sig->count) and the actual PIDTYPE_TGID unhashing of the thread. And actually there is no need for all threads to have exited at this point, so we simply kill the BUG_ON. Big thanks to Marc Lehmann who provided the test-case.

2005-09-13[PATCH] reiserfs: use mark_inode_dirty instead of reiserfs_update_sdChris Mason
reiserfs should use mark_inode_dirty during reiserfs_file_write and reiserfs_commit_write. This makes sure the inode is properly flagged as dirty, which is used during O_SYNC to decide when to trigger log commits.

2005-09-13[PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anywayPeter Staubach
When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3 specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function returns -1.". The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is full and no more file structs can be allocated. This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry was already created and can not be safely removed. The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.
