commit b4c458b3a23d76936e76678f2074b1528f129f7a upstream.

On 64 bit systems -- where sizeof(ssize_t) &gt; sizeof(int) -- the following test
exposes a bug due to a non-careful return of an int or unsigned value:

implement a FUSE filesystem which sends an unsolicited notification to
the kernel with invalid opcode. The respective write to /dev/fuse
will return (1 &lt;&lt; 32) - EINVAL with errno == 0 instead of -1 with
errno == EINVAL.

<content type='text'>
commit 0a8eba9b7f7aa3ad0305627c99ad4d6deedd871d upstream.

On systems where CONFIG_SHMEM is disabled, mounting tmpfs filesystems can
fail when tmpfs options are used.  This is because tmpfs creates a small
wrapper around ramfs which rejects unknown options, and ramfs itself only
supports a tiny subset of what tmpfs supports.  This makes it pretty hard
to use the same userspace systems across different configuration systems.
As such, ramfs should ignore the tmpfs options when tmpfs is merely a
wrapper around ramfs.

This used to work before commit c3b1b1cbf0 as previously, ramfs would
ignore all options.  But now, we get:
ramfs: bad mount option: size=10M
mount: mounting mdev on /dev failed: Invalid argument

Another option might be to restore the previous behavior, where ramfs
simply ignored all unknown mount options ... which is what Hugh prefers.

commit 3fe4a975d662f11037cb710f8b4b158a3e38f9c0 upstream.

This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.

I unfortunately accepted a patch time ago, to drop the "current" usage
from possible IRQ context, w/out proper thought over it.  The patch
switched to using the CPU id by bounding the nested call callback with a
get_cpu()/put_cpu().

Unfortunately the ep_call_nested() function can be called with a callback
that grabs sleepy locks (from own f_op-&gt;poll()), that results in epic
fails.  The following patch uses the proper "context" depending on the
path where it is called, and on the kind of callback.

This has been reported by Stefan Richter, that has also verified the patch
is his previously failing environment.

commit f7c52fd17a7dda42fc9e88c2b2678403419bfe63 upstream.

Commit fec1878fe952b994125a3be7c94b1322db586f3b caused a regression in
which contiguous blocks being allocated to the end of an extent were
getting a new extent created.  This typically results in files entirely
made up of 1-block extents even though the blocks are contiguous on
disk.

Apparently grub doesn't handle a jfs file being fragmented into too many
extents, since it refuses to boot a kernel from jfs that was created by
the 2.6.30 kernel.

commit 545b9fd3d737afc0bb5203b1e79194a471605acd upstream.

Some filesystems can call in to sync an inode that is still in the
I_NEW state (eg. ext family, when mounted with -osync). This is OK
because the filesystem has sole access to the new inode, so it can
modify i_state without races (because no other thread should be
modifying it, by definition of I_NEW). Ie. a false positive, so
remove the warnings.

The races are described here 7ef0d7377cb287e08f3ae94cebc919448e1f5dff,
which is also where the warnings were introduced.
