fbf1908744 Btrfs: fix data space leak fix
There is a problem where page_mkwrite can be called on a dirtied page that
already has a delalloc range associated with it.  The fix is to clear any
delalloc bits for the range we are dirtying so the space accounting gets
handled properly.  This is the same thing we do in the normal write case, so we
are consistent across the board.  With this patch we no longer leak reserved
space.

8aa38c31b7 Btrfs: remove duplicates of filemap_ helpers
Use filemap_fdatawrite_range and filemap_fdatawait_range instead of
local copies of the functions.  For filemap_fdatawait_range that
also means replacing the awkward old wait_on_page_writeback_range
calling convention with the regular filemap byte offsets.

ab93dbecfb Btrfs: take i_mutex before generic_write_checks
btrfs_file_write was incorrectly calling generic_write_checks without
taking i_mutex.  This lead to problems with racing around i_size when
doing O_APPEND writes.

The fix here is to move i_mutex higher.

dd7e0b7b02 Btrfs: fix deadlock with free space handling and user transactions
If an ioctl-initiated transaction is open, we can't force a commit during
the free space checks in order to free up pinned extents or else we
deadlock.  Just ENOSPC instead.

A more satisfying solution that reserves space for the entire user
transaction up front is forthcoming...

We currently set sb->s_flags |= MS_POSIXACL unconditionally, which is
incorrect -- it tells the VFS that it shouldn't set umask because we
will, yet we don't set it ourselves if we aren't using POSIX ACLs, so

9ed74f2dba Btrfs: proper -ENOSPC handling
At the start of a transaction we do a btrfs_reserve_metadata_space() and
specify how many items we plan on modifying.  Then once we've done our
modifications and such, just call btrfs_unreserve_metadata_space() for
the same number of items we reserved.

For keeping track of metadata needed for data I've had to add an extent_io op
for when we merge extents.  This lets us track space properly when we are doing
sequential writes, so we don't end up reserving way more metadata space than
what we need.

The only place where the metadata space accounting is not done is in the
relocation code.  This is because Yan is going to be reworking that code in the
near future, so running btrfs-vol -b could still possibly result in a ENOSPC
related panic.  This patch also turns off the metadata_ratio stuff in order to
allow users to more efficiently use their disk space.

This patch makes it so we track how much metadata we need for an inode's
delayed allocation extents by tracking how many extents are currently
waiting for allocation.  It introduces two new callbacks for the
extent_io tree's, merge_extent_hook and split_extent_hook.  These help
us keep track of when we merge delalloc extents together and split them
up.  Reservations are handled prior to any actually dirty'ing occurs,
and then we unreserve after we dirty.

btrfs_unreserve_metadata_for_delalloc() will make the appropriate
unreservations as needed based on the number of reservations we
currently have and the number of extents we currently have.  Doing the
reservation outside of doing any of the actual dirty'ing lets us do
things like filemap_flush() the inode to try and force delalloc to
happen, or as a last resort actually start allocation on all delalloc
inodes in the fs.  This has survived dbench, fs_mark and an fsx torture
test.

3321b791b2 cifs: fix locking and list handling code in cifs_open and its helper
The patch to remove cifs_init_private introduced a locking imbalance. It
didn't remove the leftover list addition code and the unlocking in that
function. cifs_new_fileinfo does the list addition now, so there should
be no need to do it outside of that function.

pCifsInode will never be NULL, so we don't need to check for that. This
patch also gets rid of the ugly locking and unlocking across function
calls.

b3af9468ae writeback: don't delay inodes redirtied by a fast dirtier
Debug traces show that in per-bdi writeback, the inode under writeback
almost always get redirtied by a busy dirtier.  We used to call
redirty_tail() in this case, which could delay inode for up to 30s.

This is unacceptable because it now happens so frequently for plain cp/dd,
that the accumulated delays could make writeback of big files very slow.

So let's distinguish between data redirty and metadata only redirty.
The first one is caused by a busy dirtier, while the latter one could
happen in XFS, NFS, etc. when they are doing delalloc or updating isize.

The inode being busy dirtied will now be requeued for next io, while
the inode being redirtied by fs will continue to be delayed to avoid
repeated IO.

5c03449d34 writeback: move inodes from one super_block together
__mark_inode_dirty adds inode to wb dirty list in random order. If a disk has
several partitions, writeback might keep spindle moving between partitions.
To reduce the move, better write big chunk of one partition and then move to
another. Inodes from one fs usually are in one partion, so idealy move indoes
from one fs together should reduce spindle move. This patch tries to address
this. Before per-bdi writeback is added, the behavior is write indoes
from one fs first and then another, so the patch restores previous behavior.
The loop in the patch is a bit ugly, should we add a dirty list for each
superblock in bdi_writeback?

Test in a two partition disk with attached fio script shows about 3% ~ 6%
improvement.

7fbdea3232 writeback: kupdate writeback shall not stop when more io is possible
Fix the kupdate case, which disregards wbc.more_io and stop writeback
prematurely even when there are more inodes to be synced.

wbc.more_io should always be respected.

Also remove the pages_skipped check. It will set when some page(s) of some
inode(s) cannot be written for now. Such inodes will be delayed for a while.
This variable has nothing to do with whether there are other writeable inodes.

Also simplify the (nr_pages <= 0) checks. Since we already pass in

If all inodes are under writeback (e.g. in case when there's only one inode
with dirty pages), wb_writeback() with WB_SYNC_NONE work basically degrades
to busylooping until I_SYNC flags of the inode is cleared. Fix the problem by
waiting on I_SYNC flags of an inode on b_more_io list in case we failed to
write anything.

3bc303c254 cifs: convert oplock breaks to use slow_work facility (try #4)
This is the fourth respin of the patch to convert oplock breaks to
use the slow_work facility.

A customer of ours was testing a backport of one of the earlier
patchsets, and hit a "Busy inodes after umount..." problem. An oplock
break job had raced with a umount, and the superblock got torn down and
its memory reused. When the oplock break job tried to dereference the
inode->i_sb, the kernel oopsed.

This patchset has the oplock break job hold an inode and vfsmount
reference until the oplock break completes.  With this, there should be
no need to take a tcon reference (the vfsmount implicitly holds one
already).

Currently, when an oplock break comes in there's a chance that the
oplock break job won't occur if the allocation of the oplock_q_entry
fails. There are also some rather nasty races in the allocation and
handling these structs.

Rather than allocating oplock queue entries when an oplock break comes
in, add a few extra fields to the cifsFileInfo struct. Get rid of the
dedicated cifs_oplock_thread as well and queue the oplock break job to
the slow_work thread pool.

This approach also has the advantage that the oplock break jobs can
potentially run in parallel rather than be serialized like they are
today.

801460d0cf task_struct cleanup: move binfmt field to mm_struct
Because the binfmt is not different between threads in the same process,
it can be moved from task_struct to mm_struct.  And binfmt moudle is
handled per mm_struct instead of task_struct.

a21f3c2a04 fs/romfs: correct error-handling code
romfs_iget returns an ERR_PTR value in an error case instead of NULL.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@match exists@
expression x, E;
statement S1, S2;
@@

x = romfs_iget(...)
... when != x = E
(
*  if (x == NULL || ...) S1 else S2

*  if (x == NULL && ...) S1 else S2
)

8d65af789f sysctl: remove "struct file *" argument of ->proc_handler
It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

dd5d81f326 fs/char_dev.c: remove useless loop
There are two useless lines in fs/char_dev.c.

In register_chrdev there is a loop to change all '/' into '!' in the
kernel object name.
This code is useless as the same substitution is in kobject_set_name_vargs in
lib/kobject.c:
228         /* ewww... some of these buggers have '/' in the name ... */
229         while ((s = strchr(kobj->name, '/')))
230                 s[0] = '!';

kobject_set_name_vargs is called by kobject_set_name.
kobject_set_name is called just above the useless loop.

8e8b63a68c fdpic: ignore the loader's PT_GNU_STACK when calculating the stack size
Ignore the loader's PT_GNU_STACK when calculating the stack size, and only
consider the executable's PT_GNU_STACK, assuming the executable has one.

Currently the behaviour is to take the largest stack size and use that,
but that means you can't reduce the stack size in the executable.  The
loader's stack size should probably only be used when executing the loader
directly.

WARNING: This patch is slightly dangerous - it may render a system
inoperable if the loader's stack size is larger than that of important
executables, and the system relies unknowingly on this increasing the size
of the stack.

ba0a6c9f6f fcntl: add F_[SG]ETOWN_EX
In order to direct the SIGIO signal to a particular thread of a
multi-threaded application we cannot, like suggested by the manpage, put a
TID into the regular fcntl(F_SETOWN) call.  It will still be send to the
whole process of which that thread is part.

Since people do want to properly direct SIGIO we introduce F_SETOWN_EX.

The need to direct SIGIO comes from self-monitoring profiling such as with
perf-counters.  Perf-counters uses SIGIO to notify that new sample data is
available.  If the signal is delivered to the same task that generated the
new sample it can augment that data by inspecting the task's user-space
state right after it returns from the kernel.  This is esp.  convenient
for interpreted or virtual machine driven environments.

Both F_SETOWN_EX and F_GETOWN_EX take a pointer to a struct f_owner_ex
as argument:

struct f_owner_ex {
	int   type;
	pid_t pid;
};

Where type is one of F_OWNER_TID, F_OWNER_PID or F_OWNER_GID.
