git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4
Pull ext4 update from Ted Ts'o:
"There are two major features for this merge window. The first is
inline data, which allows small files or directories to be stored in
the in-inode extended attribute area. (This requires that the file
system use inodes which are at least 256 bytes or larger; 128 byte
inodes do not have any room for in-inode xattrs.)
The second new feature is SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA support. This is
enabled by the extent status tree patches, and this infrastructure
will be used to further optimize ext4 in the future.
Beyond that, we have the usual collection of code cleanups and bug
fixes."

Pull GFS2 updates from Steven Whitehouse:
"The main feature this time is the new Orlov allocator and the patches
leading up to it which allow us to allocate new inodes from their own
allocation context, rather than borrowing that of their parent
directory. It is this change which then allows us to choose a
different location for subdirectories when required. This works
exactly as per the ext3 implementation from the users point of view.
In addition to that, we've got a speed up in gfs2_rbm_from_block()
from Bob Peterson, three locking related improvements from Dave
Teigland plus a selection of smaller bug fixes and clean ups."

Merge emailed autofs cleanup/fix patches from Ian Kent
* autofs:
autofs4 - use simple_empty() for empty directory check
autofs4 - dont clear DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT on rootless mount
|
|
For direct (and offset) mounts, if an automounted mount is manually
umounted the trigger mount dentry can appear non-empty causing it to
not trigger mounts. This can also happen if there is a file handle
leak in a user space automounting application.
This happens because, when a ioctl control file handle is opened
on the mount, a cursor dentry is created which causes list_empty()
to see the dentry as non-empty. Since there is a case where listing
the directory of these dentrys is needed, the use of dcache_dir_*()
functions for .open() and .release() is needed.
Consequently simple_empty() must be used instead of list_empty()
when checking for an empty directory.

The DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT flag is cleared on mount and set on expire
for autofs rootless multi-mount dentrys to prevent unnecessary calls
to ->d_automount().
Since DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT is always set on autofs dentrys ->d_managed()
is always called so the check can be done in ->d_manage() without the
need to change the flag. This still avoids unnecessary calls to
->d_automount(), adds negligible overhead and eliminates a seriously
ugly check in the expire code.

Merge misc VM changes from Andrew Morton:
"The rest of most-of-MM. The other MM bits await a slab merge.
This patch includes the addition of a huge zero_page. Not a
performance boost but it an save large amounts of physical memory in
some situations.
Also a bunch of Fujitsu engineers are working on memory hotplug.
Which, as it turns out, was badly broken. About half of their patches
are included here; the remainder are 3.8 material."
However, this merge disables CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE, which was totally
broken. We don't add new features with "default y", nor do we add
Kconfig questions that are incomprehensible to most people without any
help text. Does the feature even make sense without compaction or
memory hotplug?

ftrace_size
The bounds check in ramoops_init_prz was incorrect and ramoops_init_przs
had no check. Additionally, ramoops_init_przs allows record_size to be 0,
but ramoops_pstore_write_buf would always crash in this case.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal
Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change affects group scheduling: we now track the runnable
average on a per-task entity basis, allowing a smoother, exponential
decay average based load/weight estimation instead of the previous
binary on-the-runqueue/off-the-runqueue load weight method.
This will inevitably disturb workloads that were in some sort of
borderline balancing state or unstable equilibrium, so an eye has to
be kept on regressions.
For that reason the new load average is only limited to group
scheduling (shares distribution) at the moment (which was also hurting
the most from the prior, crude weight calculation and whose scheduling
quality wins most from this change) - but we plan to extend this to
regular SMP balancing as well in the future, which will simplify and
speed up things a bit.
Other changes involve ongoing preparatory work to extend NOHZ to the
scheduler as well, eventually allowing completely irq-free user-space
execution."

The maximum oom_score_adj is 1000 and the minimum oom_score_adj is -1000,
so this range can be represented by the signed short type with no

will be used for per-thread oom kill flags in the next patch.

Overhaul struct address_space.assoc_mapping renaming it to
address_space.private_data and its type is redefined to void*. By this
approach we consistently name the .private_* elements from struct
address_space as well as allow extended usage for address_space

Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce significantly
the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be used within a
guest, thus imposing performance penalties associated with the reduced
number of transparent huge pages that could be used by the guest workload.
This patch-set follows the main idea discussed at 2012 LSFMMS session:
"Ballooning for transparent huge pages" -- http://lwn.net/Articles/490114/
to introduce the required changes to the virtio_balloon driver, as well as
the changes to the core compaction & migration bits, in order to make
those subsystems aware of ballooned pages and allow memory balloon pages
become movable within a guest, thus avoiding the aforementioned
fragmentation issue
Following are numbers that prove this patch benefits on allowing
compaction to be more effective at memory ballooned guests.
Results for STRESS-HIGHALLOC benchmark, from Mel Gorman's mmtests suite,
running on a 4gB RAM KVM guest which was ballooning 512mB RAM in 64mB
chunks, at every minute (inflating/deflating), while test was running:

There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or
SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on
others. This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving
on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings.
This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow
specifying the page size.
It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows
encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB
flag. When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the
change fully compatible.
Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward.
Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the
right mount based on the specified page size. When no page size is
specified it uses the mount of the default page size.
The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't
appear there. It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts
just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used.
I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously
under __KERNEL__). Right now only symbols for x86 and some other
architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined. The interface should already
work for all other architectures though. Only architectures that define
multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile,
powerpc). However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb
sizes, so it's not easy to add defines. A program on those
architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

If we have a read oplock and set a read lock in it, we can't write to the
locked area - so, filemap_fdatawrite may fail with a no information for a
userspace application even if we request a write to non-locked area. Fix
this by populating the page cache without marking affected pages dirty
after a successful write directly to the server.
Also remove CONFIG_CIFS_SMB2 ifdefs because it's suitable for both CIFS
and SMB2 protocols.

This should fix a regression that was introduced when the new mount
option parser went in. Also, when the unc= and prefixpath= options
are provided, check their values against the ones we parsed from
the device string. If they differ, then throw a warning that tells
the user that we're using the values from the unc= option for now,
but that that will change in 3.10.

Currently the code takes care to ensure that the prefixpath has a
leading '/' delimiter. What if someone passes us a prefixpath with a
leading '\\' instead? The code doesn't properly handle that currently
AFAICS.
Let's just change the code to skip over any leading delimiter character
when copying the prepath. Then, fix up the users of the prepath option
to prefix it with the correct delimiter when they use it.
Also, there's no need to limit the length of the prefixpath to 1k. If
the server can handle it, why bother forbidding it?

Make sure we free any existing memory allocated for vol->UNC, just in
case someone passes in multiple unc= options.
Get rid of the check for too long a UNC. The check for >300 bytes seems
arbitrary. We later copy this into the tcon->treeName, for instance and
it's a lot shorter than 300 bytes.
Eliminate an extra kmalloc and copy as well. Just set the vol->UNC
directly with the contents of match_strdup.
Establish that the UNC should be stored with '\\' delimiters. Use
convert_delimiter to change it in place in the vol->UNC.
Finally, move the check for a malformed UNC into
cifs_parse_mount_options so we can catch that situation earlier.

Not all architectures (in particular, sparc64) have empty_zero_page.
So instead of copying from empty_zero_page, use memset to clear the
inline data by signalling to ext4_xattr_set_entry() via a magic
pointer value, EXT4_ZERO_ATTR_VALUE, which is defined by casting -1 to
a pointer.
This fixes a build failure on sparc64, and the memset() should be more
efficient than using memcpy() anyway.

Flags being used by atomic operations in inode flags (e.g.
ext4_test_inode_flag(), should be consistent with that actually stored
in inodes, i.e.: EXT4_XXX_FL.
It ensures that this consistency is checked at build-time, not at
run-time.
Currently, the flags consistency are being checked at run-time, but,
there is no real reason to not do a build-time check instead of a
run-time check. The code is comparing macro defined values with enum
type variables, where both are constants, so, there is no problem in
comparing constants at build-time.
enum variables are treated as constants by the C compiler, according
to the C99 specs (see www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1124.pdf
sec. 6.2.5, item 16), so, there is no real problem in comparing an
enumeration type at build time

Ted has sent out a RFC about removing this feature. Eric and Jan
confirmed that both RedHat and SUSE enable this feature in all their
product. David also said that "As far as I know, it's enabled in all
Android kernels that use ext4." So it seems OK for us.
And what's more, as inline data depends its implementation on xattr,
and to be frank, I don't run any test again inline data enabled while
xattr disabled. So I think we should add inline data and remove this
config option in the same release.
[ The savings if you disable CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR is only 27k, which
isn't much in the grand scheme of things. Since no one seems to be
testing this configuration except for some automated compile farms, on
balance we are better removing this config option, and so that it is
effectively always enabled. -- tytso ]
