commit 05b5d898235401c489c68e1f3bc5706a29ad5713 upstream.

Commit fd8fbfc1 modified the way we find amount of reserved space
belonging to an inode. The amount of reserved space is checked
from dquot_transfer and thus inode_reserved_space gets called
even for filesystems that don't provide get_reserved_space callback
which results in a BUG.

Fix the problem by checking get_reserved_space callback and return 0 if
the filesystem does not provide it.

<title>nfsd: make sure data is on disk before calling -&gt;fsync</title>

commit 7211a4e859ad070b28545c06e0a6cb60b3b8aa31 upstream.

nfsd is not using vfs_fsync, so I missed it when changing the calling
convention during the 2.6.32 window.  This patch fixes it to not only
start the data writeout, but also wait for it to complete before calling
into -&gt;fsync.

<title>exofs: simple_write_end does not mark_inode_dirty</title>

commit efd124b999fb4d426b30675f1684521af0872789 upstream.

exofs uses simple_write_end() for it's .write_end handler. But
it is not enough because simple_write_end() does not call
mark_inode_dirty() when it extends i_size. So even if we do
call mark_inode_dirty at beginning of write out, with a very
long IO and a saturated system we might get the .write_inode()
called while still extend-writing to file and miss out on the last
i_size updates.

So override .write_end, call simple_write_end(), and afterwords if
i_size was changed call mark_inode_dirty().

It stands to logic that since simple_write_end() was the one extending
i_size it should also call mark_inode_dirty(). But it looks like all
users of simple_write_end() are memory-bound pseudo filesystems, who
could careless about mark_inode_dirty(). I might submit a
warning-comment patch to simple_write_end() in future.

<title>fasync: split 'fasync_helper()' into separate add/remove functions</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 53281b6d34d44308372d16acb7fb5327609f68b6 upstream.

Yes, the add and remove cases do share the same basic loop and the
locking, but the compiler can inline and then CSE some of the end result
anyway.  And splitting it up makes the code way easier to follow,
and makes it clearer exactly what the semantics are.

In particular, we must make sure that the FASYNC flag in file-&gt;f_flags
exactly matches the state of "is this file on any fasync list", since
not only is that flag visible to user space (F_GETFL), but we also use
that flag to check whether we need to remove any fasync entries on file
close.

We got that wrong for the case of a mixed use of file locking (which
tries to remove any fasync entries for file leases) and fasync.

Splitting the function up also makes it possible to do some future
optimizations without making the function even messier.  In particular,
since the FASYNC flag has to match the state of "is this on a list", we
can do the following future optimizations:

 - on remove, we don't even need to get the locks and traverse the list
   if FASYNC isn't set, since we can know a priori that there is no
   point (this is effectively the same optimization that we already do
   in __fput() wrt removing fasync on file close)

 - on add, we can use the FASYNC flag to decide whether we are changing
   an existing entry or need to allocate a new one.

but this is just the cleanup + fix for the FASYNC flag.

commit 7ea6600148c265b1fd53e521022b1d7aec81d974 upstream.

generic_permission was refusing CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH-enabled
processes from opening DAC-protected files read-only, because
do_filp_open adds MAY_OPEN to the open mask.

Ignore MAY_OPEN.  After this patch, CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH is
again sufficient to open(fname, O_RDONLY) on a file to which
DAC otherwise refuses us read permission.

<title>quota: decouple fs reserved space from quota reservation</title>

commit fd8fbfc1709822bd94247c5b2ab15a5f5041e103 upstream.

Currently inode_reservation is managed by fs itself and this
reservation is transfered on dquot_transfer(). This means what
inode_reservation must always be in sync with
dquot-&gt;dq_dqb.dqb_rsvspace. Otherwise dquot_transfer() will result
in incorrect quota(WARN_ON in dquot_claim_reserved_space() will be
triggered)
This is not easy because of complex locking order issues
for example http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14739

The patch introduce quota reservation field for each fs-inode
(fs specific inode is used in order to prevent bloating generic
vfs inode). This reservation is managed by quota code internally
similar to i_blocks/i_bytes and may not be always in sync with
internal fs reservation.

Also perform some code rearrangement:
- Unify dquot_reserve_space() and dquot_reserve_space()
- Unify dquot_release_reserved_space() and dquot_free_space()
- Also this patch add missing warning update to release_rsv()
  dquot_release_reserved_space() must call flush_warnings() as
  dquot_free_space() does.
