In commit 8a9ea3237e7e ("Merge git://.../davem/net-next") where my sysfs
changes from the net tree merged with the sysfs rbtree changes from
Mickulas Patocka the conflict resolution failed to preserve the
simplified property that was the point of my changes.
That is sysfs_find_dirent can now say something is a match if and only
s_name and s_ns match what we are looking for, and sysfs_readdir can
simply return all of the directory entries where s_ns matches the
directory that we should be returning.
Now that we are back to exact matches we can tweak sysfs_find_dirent and
the name rb_tree to order sysfs_dirents by s_ns s_name and remove the
second loop in sysfs_find_dirent. However that change seems a bit much
for a conflict resolution so it can come later.

sysfs is a core piece of ifrastructure that many people use and
few people have all of the rules in their head on how to use
it correctly. Add warnings for people using tagged directories
improperly to that any misuses can be caught and diagnosed quickly.
A single inexpensive test in sysfs_find_dirent is almost sufficient
to catch all possible misuses. An additional warning is needed
in sysfs_add_dirent so that we actually fail when attempting to
add an untagged dirent in a tagged directory.

Now that /sys/class/net/bonding_masters is implemented as a tagged sysfs
file we can remove support for untagged files in tagged directories.
This change removes any ambiguity of what a NULL namespace value
means. A NULL namespace parameter after this patch means
that we are talking about an untagged sysfs dirent.
This makes the sysfs code much less prone to mistakes when during
maintenance.

Looking up files in sysfs is hard to understand and analyize because we
currently allow placing untagged files in tagged directories. In the
implementation of that we have two subtly different meanings of NULL.
NULL meaning there is no tag on a directory entry and NULL meaning
we don't care which namespace the lookup is performed for. This
multiple uses of NULL have resulted in subtle bugs (since fixed)
in the code.
Currently it is only the bonding driver that needs to have an untagged
file in a tagged directory.
To untagle this mess I am adding support for tagged files to sysfs.
Modifying the bonding driver to implement bonding_masters as a tagged
file. Registering bonding_masters once for each network namespace.
Then I am removing support for untagged entries in tagged sysfs
directories.
Resulting in code that is much easier to reason about.

Creating a new file is an irrevocable step--once it's visible in the
filesystem, other processes may have seen it and done something with it,
and unlinking it wouldn't simply undo the effects of the create.
Therefore, in the case where OPEN creates a new file, we shouldn't do
the create until we know that the rest of the OPEN processing will
succeed.
For example, we should preallocate a struct file in case we need it
until waiting to allocate it till process_open2(), which is already too
late.

If process_open1() creates a new open owner, but the open later fails,
the current code will leave the open owner around. It won't be on the
close_lru list, and the client isn't expected to send a CLOSE, so it
will hang around as long as the client does.
Similarly, if process_open1() removes an existing open owner from the
close lru, anticipating that an open owner that previously had no
associated stateid's now will, but the open subsequently fails, then
we'll again be left with the same leak.
Fix both problems.

Currently we have a few issues with the way the workqueue code is used to
implement AIL pushing:
- it accidentally uses the same workqueue as the syncer action, and thus
can be prevented from running if there are enough sync actions active
in the system.
- it doesn't use the HIGHPRI flag to queue at the head of the queue of
work items
At this point I'm not confident enough in getting all the workqueue flags and
tweaks right to provide a perfectly reliable execution context for AIL
pushing, which is the most important piece in XFS to make forward progress
when the log fills.
Revert back to use a kthread per filesystem which fixes all the above issues
at the cost of having a task struct and stack around for each mounted
filesystem. In addition this also gives us much better ways to diagnose
any issues involving hung AIL pushing and removes a small amount of code.

items flush into the same buffers that may be pinned directly due operations
on the unlinked inode list operating directly on buffers. To do this add a

If an item was locked we should not update xa_last_pushed_lsn and thus skip
it when restarting the AIL scan as we need to be able to lock and write it
out as soon as possible. Otherwise heavy lock contention might starve AIL
pushing too easily, especially given the larger backoff once we moved
xa_last_pushed_lsn all the way to the target lsn.

The btrfs file defrag code will loop through the extents and
force COW on them. But there is a concurrent truncate in the middle of
the defrag, it might end up defragging the same range over and over
again.
The problem is that writepage won't go through and do anything on pages
past i_size, so the cow won't happen, so the file will appear to still
be fragmented. defrag will end up hitting the same extents again and
again.
In the worst case, the truncate can actually live lock with the defrag
because the defrag keeps creating new ordered extents which the truncate
code keeps waiting on.
The fix here is to make defrag check for i_size inside the main loop,
instead of just once before the looping starts.

# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/tmp bs=200K count=1
# sync
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/tmp bs=8K count=1 conv=notrunc
and then it'll go into a loop: writeback -> defrag -> writeback ...
It's because writeback writes [8K, 200K] and then writes [0, 8K].
I tried to make writeback know if the pages are dirtied by defrag,
but the patch was a bit intrusive. Here I simply set writeback_index
when we defrag a file.

Btrfs: force a page fault if we have a shorty copy on a page boundary
|

A user reported a problem where ceph was getting into 100% cpu usage while doing
some writing. It turns out it's because we were doing a short write on a not
uptodate page, which means we'd fall back at one page at a time and fault the
page in. The problem is our position is on the page boundary, so our fault in
logic wasn't actually reading the page, so we'd just spin forever or until the
page got read in by somebody else. This will force a readpage if we end up
doing a short copy. Alexandre could reproduce this easily with ceph and reports
it fixes his problem. I also wrote a reproducer that no longer hangs my box
with this patch. Thanks,

In cleanup_volume_info_contents() we kfree(volume_info->UNC); and then
proceed to use that variable on the very next line.
This causes (at least) Coverity Prevent to complain about use-after-free
of that variable (and I guess other checkers may do that as well).
There's not any /real/ problem here since we are just using the value of
the pointer, not actually dereferencing it, but it's still trivial to
silence the tool, so why not?
To me at least it also just seems nicer to defer freeing the variable
until we are entirely done with it in all respects.

That flag no longer makes sense, since we don't look up automount points
as eagerly any more. Additionally, it turns out that the NO_AUTOMOUNT
handling was buggy to begin with: it would avoid automounting even for
cases where we really *needed* to do the automount handling, and could
return ENOENT for autofs entries that hadn't been instantiated yet.
With our new non-eager automount semantics, one discussion has been
about adding a AT_AUTOMOUNT flag to vfs_fstatat (and thus the
newfstatat() and fstatat64() system calls), but it's probably not worth
it: you can always force at least directory automounting by simply
adding the final '/' to the filename, which works for *all* of the stat
family system calls, old and new.
So AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT (and thus LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT) really were just a
result of our bad default behavior.

The concensus seems to be that system calls such as stat() etc should
not trigger an automount. Neither should the l* versions.
This patch therefore adds a LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag to tag those lookups

lookup even if we don't happen to have one of the other flags that force
it implicitly (LOOKUP_OPEN, LOOKUP_DIRECTORY, LOOKUP_PARENT..)
Most cases will never want to use this, since you'd normally want to
delay automounting as long as possible, which usually implies
LOOKUP_OPEN (when we open a file or directory, we really cannot avoid
the automount any more).
But Trond argued sufficiently forcefully that at a minimum bind mounting
a file and quotactl will want to force the automount lookup. Some other
cases (like nfs_follow_remote_path()) could use it too, although
LOOKUP_DIRECTORY would work there as well.
This commit just adds the flag and logic, no users yet, though. It also
doesn't actually touch the LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag that is related, and
was made irrelevant by the same change that made us not follow on
LOOKUP_FOLLOW.
