NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS
specific knowledge built in. This design was approved by both groups
back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and
the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile
solution. This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making
use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own
mount options.
The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb
functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount
options for filesystems which use text mount data.
This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not
exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression. I will be
adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3
code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

Introduce new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to deal with their own mount
options. This includes a new string parsing function exported from the
LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security
data blob. This is particularly useful for an FS which uses binary
mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be
handled by the loaded LSM. Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK
when dealing with binary mount data. If the binary mount data is less
than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an
illegal page fault and boom. Remove all NFSisms from the SELinux code
since they were broken by past NFS changes.

The "resize" option won't be noticed as it comes after the NULL option, so if
you try to mount (or in this case remount) with that option it won't be

When the page is not up to date, ecryptfs_prepare_write() should be
acting much like ecryptfs_readpage(). This includes the painfully
obvious step of actually decrypting the page contents read from the
lower encrypted file.
Note that this patch resolves a bug in eCryptfs in 2.6.24 that one can
produce with these steps:
# mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret
# echo "abc" > /secret/file.txt
# umount /secret
# mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret
# echo "def" >> /secret/file.txt
# cat /secret/file.txt
Without this patch, the resulting data returned from cat is likely to
be something other than "abc\ndef\n".

In commit e6bafba5b4765a5a252f1b8d31cbf6d2459da337 ("wmi: (!x & y)
strikes again"), a bug was fixed that involved converting !x & y to !(x
& y). The code below shows the same pattern, and thus should perhaps be
fixed in the same way.
This is not tested and clearly changes the semantics, so it is only
something to consider.

The new code that removed the limitation on the execve string size
(which was historically 32 pages) replaced it with a much softer limit
based on RLIMIT_STACK which is usually much larger than the traditional
limit. See commit b6a2fea39318e43fee84fa7b0b90d68bed92d2ba ("mm:
variable length argument support") for details.
However, if you have a small stack limit (perhaps because you need lots
of stacks in a threaded environment), the new heuristic of allowing up
to 1/4th of RLIMIT_STACK to be used for argument and environment strings
could actually be smaller than the old limit.
So just say that it's ok to have up to ARG_MAX strings regardless of the
value of RLIMIT_STACK, and check the rlimit only when going over that
traditional limit.
(Of course, if you actually have a *really* small stack limit, the whole
stack itself will be limited before you hit ARG_MAX, but that has always
been true and is clearly the right behaviour anyway).

the "ikeep" option is set rather than "noikeep".
This regression was introduced in 970451.
With no mount options specified, xfs_parseargs() does the following:
int ikeep = 0;
args->flags |= XFSMNT_BARRIER;
args->flags2 |= XFSMNT2_COMPAT_IOSIZE;
if (!options)
goto done;
It only sets the above two options by default and before, it also used to
set XFSMNT_IDELETE by default.
If options are specified, then
if (!(args->flags & XFSMNT_DMAPI) && !ikeep)
args->flags |= XFSMNT_IDELETE;
is executed later on which is skipped by the "goto done;" above.
The solution is to invert the logic.

Reading /proc/<pid>/latency or /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/latency could cause
NULL pointer dereference.
In lstats_open(), get_proc_task() can return NULL, in which case the kernel
will oops at lstats_show_proc() because m->private is NULL.
When get_proc_task() returns NULL, the kernel should return -ENOENT.
This can be reproduced by the following script.
while :
do
date
bash -c 'ls > ls.$$' &
pid=$!
cat /proc/$pid/latency &
cat /proc/$pid/latency &

I added a nasty local variable shadowing bug to fuse in 2.6.24, with the
result, that the 'default_permissions' mount option is basically ignored.
How did this happen?
- old err declaration in inner scope
- new err getting declared in outer scope
- 'return err' from inner scope getting removed
- old declaration not being noticed
-Wshadow would have saved us, but it doesn't seem practical for
the kernel :(

This patch fixes a bug when writing to preallocated but uninitialized
blocks, which resulted in a BUG in fs/buffer.c saying that the buffer
is not mapped.
When writing to a file, ext4_get_block_wrap() is called with create=1 in
order to request that blocks be allocated if necessary. It currently
calls ext4_get_blocks() with create=0 in order to do a lookup first. If
the inode contains an unitialized data block, the buffer head is left
unampped, which ext4_get_blocks_wrap() returns, causing the BUG.
We fix this by checking to see if the buffer head is unmapped, and if
so, we make sure the the buffer head is mapped by calling
ext4_ext_get_blocks with create=1.

Sorry for the noise, but here's the v3 of this compilation fix :)
There are some places, which declare the char buf[...] on the stack
to push it later into dprintk(). Since the dprintk sometimes (if the
CONFIG_SYSCTL=n) becomes an empty do { } while (0) stub, these buffers
cause gcc to produce appropriate warnings.
Wrap these buffers with RPC_IFDEBUG macro, as Trond proposed, to

Noted by various people (Sam, Jeff, Roland..)
Commit 58b7983d15a422d9616bdc4e245d5c31dfaefbe2 intended to remove the
xfs "Makefile-linux-2.6" file, but it was mistakenly still left in the
tree as a empty file, and would cause git to correctly complain about a
tracked file being removed after a "make distclean" (which removes empty
files as garbage).
And the asm-x86/desc_64.h file was supposed to be removed by commit
c81c6ca45a69478c7877b729af1942d2b80ef582, but instead stayed around
containing just a single newline.
Get rid of them both properly.

Now that the reference counting on the callback thread is working as
expected, it uncovers another problem. Peter Staubach noticed while
testing that patch on an older kernel that he would occasionally see
this printk in rpc_register fire:
"RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -512).
The NFSv4 callback thread is signaled by nfs_callback_down(), but never
flushes that signal. All of the shutdown processing is done with that
signal pending. This makes it fail the call to unregister the port with
the portmapper.
In actuality, this rpc_register call isn't necessary at all since the
port isn't actually registered with the portmapper anymore. Regardless,
there doesn't seem to be any reason to leave the signal pending while
the thread is being shut down and flushing it should generally silence
that printk.
