patch b8da0d1c27f144bce999c653467106f3f0d5a308 in mainline.

fsid_source decided where to get the 'fsid' number to
return for a GETATTR based on the type of filehandle.
It can be from the device, from the fsid, or from the
UUID.

It is possible for the filehandle to be inconsistent
with the export information, so make sure the export information
actually has the info implied by the value returned by
fsid_source.

ocfs2: fix write() performance regression

patch 4e9563fd55ff4479f2b118d0757d121dd0cfc39c in mainline.

On file systems which don't support sparse files, Ocfs2_map_page_blocks()
was reading blocks on appending writes. This caused write performance to
suffer dramatically. Fix this by detecting an appending write on a nonsparse
fs and skipping the read.

patch 44ec6f3f89889a469773b1fd894f8fcc07c29cf in mainline

This attempts to address CVE-2006-6058
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-6058

first reported at http://projects.info-pull.com/mokb/MOKB-17-11-2006.html

Essentially a corrupted minix dir inode reporting a very large
i_size will loop for a very long time in minix_readdir, minix_find_entry,
etc, because on EIO they just move on to try the next page.  This is
under the BKL, printk-storming as well.  This can lock up the machine
for a very long time.  Simply ratelimiting the printks gets things back
under control.  Make the message a bit more informative while we're here.

changeset a6d85430424d44e946e0946bfaad607115510989 in upstream

The recent fix for a circular lock dependency unfortunately introduced a
potential memory leak in the event where the call to nlmsvc_lookup_host
fails for some reason.

Thanks to Roel Kluin for spotting this.

commit 255129d1e9ca0ed3d69d5517fae3e03d7ab4b806 in upstream.

The problem is that the garbage collector for the 'host' structures
nlm_gc_hosts(), holds nlm_host_mutex while calling down to
nlmsvc_mark_resources, which, eventually takes the file-&gt;f_mutex.

We cannot therefore call nlmsvc_lookup_host() from within
nlmsvc_create_block, since the caller will already hold file-&gt;f_mutex, so
the attempt to grab nlm_host_mutex may deadlock.

Fix the problem by calling nlmsvc_lookup_host() outside the file-&gt;f_mutex.

commit 49af7ee181f4f516ac99eba85d3f70ed42cabe76 in mainline.

NFS unregisters sysctls only if V4 support is compiled in.  However, sysctl
table is not V4 specific, so unregister it always.

Steps to reproduce:

	[build nfs.ko with CONFIG_NFS_V4=n]
	modrobe nfs
	rmmod nfs
	ls /proc/sys

commit ef2b02d3e617cb0400eedf2668f86215e1b0e6af in mainline.

The do_split() function for htree dir blocks is intended to split a leaf
block to make room for a new entry.  It sorts the entries in the original
block by hash value, then moves the last half of the entries to the new
block - without accounting for how much space this actually moves.  (IOW,
it moves half of the entry *count* not half of the entry *space*).  If by
chance we have both large &amp; small entries, and we move only the smallest
entries, and we have a large new entry to insert, we may not have created
enough space for it.

The patch below stores each record size when calculating the dx_map, and
then walks the hash-sorted dx_map, calculating how many entries must be
moved to more evenly split the existing entries between the old block and
the new block, guaranteeing enough space for the new entry.

The dx_map "offs" member is reduced to u16 so that the overall map size
does not change - it is temporarily stored at the end of the new block, and
if it grows too large it may be overwritten.  By making offs and size both
u16, we won't grow the map size.

Also add a few comments to the functions involved.

This fixes the testcase reported by hooanon05@yahoo.co.jp on the
linux-ext4 list, "ext3 dir_index causes an error"

Thanks to Andreas Dilger for discussing the problem &amp; solution with me.

<title>Leases can be hidden by flocks</title>

commit 0e2f6db88a6900bc9db576d6b478b12ee60d61f7 in mainline.

The inode-&gt;i_flock list contains the leases, flocks and posix
locks in the specified order. However, the flocks are added in
the head of this list thus hiding the leases from F_GETLEASE
command, from time_out_leases() and other code that expects
the leases to come first.

The following example will demonstrate this:

#define _GNU_SOURCE

#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/file.h&gt;

static void show_lease(int fd)
{
        int res;

        res = fcntl(fd, F_GETLEASE);
        switch (res) {
                case F_RDLCK:
                        printf("Read lease\n");
                        break;
                case F_WRLCK:
                        printf("Write lease\n");
                        break;
                case F_UNLCK:
                        printf("No leases\n");
                        break;
                default:
                        printf("Some shit\n");
                        break;
        }
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        int fd, res;

        fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY);
        if (fd == -1) {
                perror("Can't open file");
                return 1;
        }

        res = fcntl(fd, F_SETLEASE, F_WRLCK);
        if (res == -1) {
                perror("Can't set lease");
                return 1;
        }

        show_lease(fd);

        if (flock(fd, LOCK_SH) == -1) {
                perror("Can't flock shared");
                return 1;
        }

        show_lease(fd);

        return 0;
}

The first call to show_lease() will show the write lease set, but
the second will show no leases.

Fix the flock adding so that the leases always stay in the head
of this list.

Found during making the flocks pid-namespaces aware.
