The 4.17-rc /proc/meminfo and /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/smaps look ugly: single-digit
numbers (commonly 0) are misaligned.

Remove seq_put_decimal_ull_width()'s leftover optimization for single
digits: it's wrong now that num_to_str() takes care of the width.

This reverts commit ba16ddfbeb9d ("ocfs2/o2hb: check len for
bio_add_page() to avoid getting incorrect bio").

In my testing, this patch introduces a problem that mkfs can't have
slots more than 16 with 4k block size.

And the original logic is safe actually with the situation it mentions
so revert this commit.

Attach test log:

Pull btrfs fix from David Sterba:
 "A one-liner that prevents leaking an internal error value 1 out of the
  ftruncate syscall.

  This has been observed in practice. The steps to reproduce make a
  common pattern (open/write/fync/ftruncate) but also need the
  application to not check only for negative values and happens only for
  compressed inlined files.

  The conditions are narrow but as this could break userspace I think
  it's better to merge it now and not wait for the merge window"

Jun Wu at Facebook reported that an internal service was seeing a return
value of 1 from ftruncate() on Btrfs in some cases. This is coming from
the NEED_TRUNCATE_BLOCK return value from btrfs_truncate_inode_items().

btrfs_truncate() uses two variables for error handling, ret and err.
When btrfs_truncate_inode_items() returns non-zero, we set err to the
return value. However, NEED_TRUNCATE_BLOCK is not an error. Make sure we
only set err if ret is an error (i.e., negative).

To reproduce the issue: mount a filesystem with -o compress-force=zstd
and the following program will encounter return value of 1 from
ftruncate:

int main(void) {
        char buf[256] = { 0 };
        int ret;
        int fd;

        fd = open("test", O_CREAT | O_WRONLY | O_TRUNC, 0666);
        if (fd == -1) {
                perror("open");
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        if (write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)) != sizeof(buf)) {
                perror("write");
                close(fd);
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        if (fsync(fd) == -1) {
                perror("fsync");
                close(fd);
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        ret = ftruncate(fd, 128);
        if (ret) {
                printf("ftruncate() returned %d\n", ret);
                close(fd);
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        close(fd);
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

kill_ioctx() used to have an explicit RCU delay between removing the
reference from -&gt;ioctx_table and percpu_ref_kill() dropping the refcount.
At some point that delay had been removed, on the theory that
percpu_ref_kill() itself contained an RCU delay.  Unfortunately, that was
the wrong kind of RCU delay and it didn't care about rcu_read_lock() used
by lookup_ioctx().  As the result, we could get ctx freed right under
lookup_ioctx().  Tejun has fixed that in a6d7cff472e ("fs/aio: Add explicit
RCU grace period when freeing kioctx"); however, that fix is not enough.

Suppose io_destroy() from one thread races with e.g. io_setup() from another;
CPU1 removes the reference from current-&gt;mm-&gt;ioctx_table[...] just as CPU2
has picked it (under rcu_read_lock()).  Then CPU1 proceeds to drop the
refcount, getting it to 0 and triggering a call of free_ioctx_users(),
which proceeds to drop the secondary refcount and once that reaches zero
calls free_ioctx_reqs().  That does
        INIT_RCU_WORK(&amp;ctx-&gt;free_rwork, free_ioctx);
        queue_rcu_work(system_wq, &amp;ctx-&gt;free_rwork);
and schedules freeing the whole thing after RCU delay.

In the meanwhile CPU2 has gotten around to percpu_ref_get(), bumping the
refcount from 0 to 1 and returned the reference to io_setup().

Tejun's fix (that queue_rcu_work() in there) guarantees that ctx won't get
freed until after percpu_ref_get().  Sure, we'd increment the counter before
ctx can be freed.  Now we are out of rcu_read_lock() and there's nothing to
stop freeing of the whole thing.  Unfortunately, CPU2 assumes that since it
has grabbed the reference, ctx is *NOT* going away until it gets around to
dropping that reference.

The fix is obvious - use percpu_ref_tryget_live() and treat failure as miss.
It's not costlier than what we currently do in normal case, it's safe to
call since freeing *is* delayed and it closes the race window - either
lookup_ioctx() comes before percpu_ref_kill() (in which case ctx-&gt;users
won't reach 0 until the caller of lookup_ioctx() drops it) or lookup_ioctx()
fails, ctx-&gt;users is unaffected and caller of lookup_ioctx() doesn't see
the object in question at all.

open file, unlink it, then use ioctl(2) to make it immutable or
append only.  Now close it and watch the blocks *not* freed...

Immutable/append-only checks belong in -&gt;setattr().
Note: the bug is old and backport to anything prior to 737f2e93b972
("ext2: convert to use the new truncate convention") will need
these checks lifted into ext2_setattr().

That can (and does, on some filesystems) happen - -&gt;mkdir() (and thus
vfs_mkdir()) can legitimately leave its argument negative and just
unhash it, counting upon the lookup to pick the object we'd created
next time we try to look at that name.

Some vfs_mkdir() callers forget about that possibility...
