commit 48706d0a91583d08c56e7ef2a7602d99c8d4133f upstream.

Fix two bugs in fuse_retrieve():

 - retrieving more than one page would yield repeated instances of the
   first page

 - if more than FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ pages were requested than the
   request page array would overflow

fuse_retrieve() was added in 2.6.36 and these bugs had been there since the
beginning.

commit 5dfcc87fd79dfb96ed155b524337dbd0da4f5993 upstream.

kmemleak is reporting that 32 bytes are being leaked by FUSE:

This leak report is consistent and happens once per boot on
3.1.0-rc5-dirty.

This happens if a FORGET request is queued after the fuse device was
released.

FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY didn't check the length of the write so the
message processing could overrun and result in a "kernel BUG at

This function basically does:

     remove_from_page_cache(old);
     page_cache_release(old);
     add_to_page_cache_locked(new);

Except it does this atomically, so there's no possibility for the "add" to
fail because of a race.

If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved
from the old page to the new.

This function is currently used by fuse to move pages into the page cache
on read, instead of copying the page contents.

Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes
on a machine with lots of memory can take up to 30 minutes to process
FORGET requests when all those inodes are evicted from the icache.

To solve this, create a BATCH_FORGET request that allows up to about
8000 FORGET requests to be sent in a single message.

This request is only sent if userspace supports interface version 7.16
or later, otherwise fall back to sending individual FORGET messages.

<title>fuse: separate queue for FORGET requests</title>

<content type='text'>
Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes
on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30
minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache.

The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted,
are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the
huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem
operation can proceed.

Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these
take up quite a bit of memory as well.

To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure
containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET
request and chain these on a separate queue.

When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and
non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow
16 FORGET requests.  This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet
other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs
are processed.
