2007-05-07smaps: extract pmd walker from smaps codeDavid Rientjes
Extracts the pmd walker from smaps-specific code in fs/proc/task_mmu.c. The new struct pmd_walker includes the struct vm_area_struct of the memory to walk over. Iteration begins at the vma->vm_start and completes at vma->vm_end. A pointer to another data structure may be stored in the private field such as struct mem_size_stats, which acts as the smaps accumulator. For each pmd in the VMA, the action function is called with a pointer to its struct vm_area_struct, a pointer to the pmd_t, its start and end addresses, and the private field. The interface for walking pmd's in a VMA for fs/proc/task_mmu.c is now: void for_each_pmd(struct vm_area_struct *vma, void (*action)(struct vm_area_struct *vma, pmd_t *pmd, unsigned long addr, unsigned long end, void *private), void *private); Since the pmd walker is now extracted from the smaps code, smaps_one_pmd() is invoked for each pmd in the VMA. Its behavior and efficiency is identical to the existing implementation.

2007-05-07fs: buffer don't PageUptodate without page lockedNick Piggin
__block_write_full_page is calling SetPageUptodate without the page locked. This is unusual, but not incorrect, as PG_writeback is still set. However the next patch will require that SetPageUptodate always be called with the page locked. Simply don't bother setting the page uptodate in this case (it is unusual that the write path does such a thing anyway). Instead just leave it to the read side to bring the page uptodate when it notices that all buffers are uptodate.

2007-05-07mm: make read_cache_page synchronousNick Piggin
Ensure pages are uptodate after returning from read_cache_page, which allows us to cut out most of the filesystem-internal PageUptodate calls. I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7 possible use-before uptodate in hfs, 2 in hfsplus, 1 in jfs, a few in ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in block2mtd. All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return with a !uptodate page.

2007-05-05[CIFS] Make sec=none force an anonymous mountJeff Layton
We had a customer report that attempting to make CIFS mount with a null username (i.e. doing an anonymous mount) doesn't work. Looking through the code, it looks like CIFS expects a NULL username from userspace in order to trigger an anonymous mount. The mount.cifs code doesn't seem to ever pass a null username to the kernel, however. It looks also like the kernel can take a sec=none option, but it only seems to look at it if the username is already NULL. This seems redundant and effectively makes sec=none useless. The following patch makes sec=none force an anonymous mount. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

OCFS2_I(inode)->ip_alloc_sem is a read-write semaphore protecting local concurrent access of ocfs2 inodes. However, ocfs2 directories were not taking the semaphore while they accessed or modified the allocation tree. ocfs2_extend_dir() needs to take the semaphore in a write mode when it adds to the allocation.

2007-04-30NFS: Fix directory caching problem - with test case and patch.Neil Brown
Try running this script in an NFS mounted directory (Client relatively recent - 2.6.18 has the problem as does 2.6.20). ------------------------------------------------------ #!/bin/bash # # This script will produce the following errormessage from tar: # # tar: newdir/innerdir/innerfile: file changed as we read it # create dirs rm -rf nfstest mkdir -p nfstest/dir/innerdir # create files (should not be empty) echo "Hello World!" >nfstest/dir/file echo "Hello World!" >nfstest/dir/innerdir/innerfile # problem only happens if we sleep before chmod sleep 1 # change file modes chmod -R a+r nfstest # rename dir mv nfstest/dir nfstest/newdir # tar it tar -cf nfstest/nfstest.tar -C nfstest newdir # restore old dir name mv nfstest/newdir nfstest/dir -------------------------------------------------------- What happens: The 'chmod -R' does a readdir_plus in each directory and the results get cached in the page cache. It then updates the ctime on each file by one second. When this happens, the post-op attributes are used to update the ctime stored on the client to match the value in the kernel. The 'mv' calls shrink_dcache_parent on the directory tree which flushes all the dentries (so a new lookup will be required) but doesn't flush the inodes or pagecache. The 'tar' does a readdir on each directory, but (in the case of 'innerdir' at least) satisfies it from the pagecache and uses the READDIRPLUS data to update all the inodes. In the case of 'innerdir/innerfile', the ctime is out of date. 'tar' then calls 'lstat' on innerdir/innerfile getting an old ctime. It then opens the file (triggering a GETATTR), reads the content, and then calls fstat to see if anything has changed. It finds that ctime has changed and so complains. The problem seems to be that the cache readdirplus info is kept around for too long. My patch below discards pagecache data for directories when dentry_iput is called on them. This effectively removes the symptom which convinces me that I correctly understand the problem. However I'm not convinced that is a proper solution, as there could easily be other races that trigger the same problem without being affected by this 'fix'. One possibility would be to require that readdirplus pagecache data be only used *once* to instantiate an inode. Somehow it should then be invalidated so that if the dentry subsequently disappears, it will cause a new request to the server to fill in the stat data. Another possibility is to compare the cache_change_attribute on the inode with something similar for the readdirplus info and reject the info from readdirplus if it is too old. I haven't tried to implement these and would value other opinions before I do. Thanks, NeilBrown Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-04-30NFS: Set meaningful value for fattr->time_start in readdirplus results.Neil Brown
Don't use uninitialsed value for fattr->time_start in readdirplus results. The 'fattr' structure filled in by nfs3_decode_direct does not get a value for ->time_start set. Thus if an entry is for an inode that we already have in cache, when nfs_readdir_lookup calls nfs_fhget, it will call nfs_refresh_inode and may update the inode with out-of-date information. Directories are read a page at a time, so each page could have a different timestamp that "should" be used to set the time_start for the fattr for info in that page. However storing the timestamp per page is awkward. (We could stick in the first 4 bytes and only read 4092 bytes, but that is a bigger code change than I am interested it). This patch ignores the readdir_plus attributes if a readdir finds the information already in cache, and otherwise sets ->time_start to the time the readdir request was sent to the server. It might be nice to store - in the directory inode - the time stamp for the earliest readdir request that is still in the page cache, so that we don't ignore attribute data that we don't have to. This patch doesn't do that. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2007-04-30SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too largeChuck Lever
The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size. A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc. To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size. Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split the RPC buffer precisely between the two. That should keep almost all RPC buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit. And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE! Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-04-30NLM: Shrink the maximum request size of NLM4 requestsChuck Lever

2007-04-30NFS: Fix a race when doing NFS write coalescingTrond Myklebust
Currently we do write coalescing in a very inefficient manner: one pass in generic_writepages() in order to lock the pages for writing, then one pass in nfs_flush_mapping() and/or nfs_sync_mapping_wait() in order to gather the locked pages for coalescing into RPC requests of size "wsize". In fact, it turns out there is actually a deadlock possible here since we only start I/O on the second pass. If the user signals the process while we're in nfs_sync_mapping_wait(), for instance, then we may exit before starting I/O on all the requests that have been queued up.
