<content type='text'>
commit 4991a628a789dc5954e98e79476d9808812292ec upstream.

A fl-&gt;fl_break_time of 0 has a special meaning to the lease break code
that basically means "never break the lease". knfsd uses this to ensure
that leases don't disappear out from under it.

Unfortunately, the code in __break_lease can end up passing this value
to wait_event_interruptible as a timeout, which prevents it from going
to sleep at all. This causes __break_lease to spin in a tight loop and
causes soft lockups.

Fix this by ensuring that we pass a minimum value of 1 as a timeout
instead.

This is to complete part of the Userspace API (UAPI) disintegration for which
the preparatory patches were pulled recently.  After these patches, userspace
headers will be segregated into:

        include/uapi/linux/.../foo.h

for the userspace interface stuff, and:

        include/linux/.../foo.h

for the strictly kernel internal stuff.

<title>vfs: don't treat fl_type as a bitmap</title>

The rules for fl_type are rather convoluted. Typically it's treated as
holding specific values, except in the case of LOCK_MAND, in which case
it can be or'ed with LOCK_READ|LOCK_WRITE.

On some arches F_WRLCK == 2 and F_UNLCK == 3, so and'ing with F_WRLCK will also
catch the F_UNLCK case. It's unlikely in either case here that we'd ever see
F_UNLCK since those shouldn't end up on any lists, but it's still best to be
consistent.

Pull nfsd changes from J. Bruce Fields:
 "This has been an unusually quiet cycle--mostly bugfixes and cleanup.
  The one large piece is Stanislav's work to containerize the server's
  grace period--but that in itself is just one more step in a
  not-yet-complete project to allow fully containerized nfs service.

  There are a number of outstanding delegation, container, v4 state, and
  gss patches that aren't quite ready yet; 3.7 may be wilder."

* 'nfsd-next' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (35 commits)
  NFSd: make boot_time variable per network namespace
  NFSd: make grace end flag per network namespace
  Lockd: move grace period management from lockd() to per-net functions
  LockD: pass actual network namespace to grace period management functions
  LockD: manage grace list per network namespace
  SUNRPC: service request network namespace helper introduced
  NFSd: make nfsd4_manager allocated per network namespace context.
  LockD: make lockd manager allocated per network namespace
  LockD: manage grace period per network namespace
  Lockd: add more debug to host shutdown functions
  Lockd: host complaining function introduced
  LockD: manage used host count per networks namespace
  LockD: manage garbage collection timeout per networks namespace
  LockD: make garbage collector network namespace aware.
  LockD: mark host per network namespace on garbage collect
  nfsd4: fix missing fault_inject.h include
  locks: move lease-specific code out of locks_delete_lock
  locks: prevent side-effects of locks_release_private before file_lock is initialized
  NFSd: set nfsd_serv to NULL after service destruction
  NFSd: introduce nfsd_destroy() helper

When calling fcntl(fd, F_SETLEASE, lck) [with lck=F_WRLCK or F_RDLCK],
the custom signal or owner (if any were previously set using F_SETSIG
or F_SETOWN fcntls) would be reset when F_SETLEASE was called for the
second time on the same file descriptor.

This bug is a regression of 2.6.37 and is described here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43336

This patch reverts a commit from Oct 2004 (with subject "nfs4 lease:
move the f_delown processing") which originally introduced the
lm_release_private callback.

The only checks of the long argument passed to fcntl(fd,F_SETLEASE,.)
are done after converting the long to an int.  Thus some illegal values
may be let through and cause problems in later code.

[ They actually *don't* cause problems in mainline, as of Dave Jones's
  commit 8d657eb3b438 "Remove easily user-triggerable BUG from
  generic_setlease", but we should fix this anyway.  And this patch will
  be necessary to fix real bugs on earlier kernels. ]
