- move some file_operations structs into the .rodata section - move static strings from policy_types[] array into the .rodata section - fix generic seq_operations usages, so that those structs may be defined as "const" as well [akpm@osdl.org: couple of fixes] Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the unused NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE. Additionally, it does differently what NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE was supposed to do: Nowadays, gcc knows best when to inline code, and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE even tells gcc globally whether to optimize for size or for speed. Therefore, this patch also removes all inline's from these files. Signed-off-by:

If you do something like: # touch foo # tail -f foo & # rm foo # <take snapshot> # <mount snapshot> you'll panic, because ext3/4 tries to do orphan list processing on the readonly snapshot device, and: kernel: journal commit I/O error kernel: Assertion failure in journal_flush_Rsmp_e2f189ce() at journal.c:1356: "!journal->j_checkpoint_transactions" kernel: Kernel panic: Fatal exception for a truly readonly underlying device, it's reasonable and necessary to just skip orphan list processing.

When kernel is compiled with old version of autofs (CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS), and new (observed at least with 5.x.x) automount deamon is started, kernel correctly reports incompatible version of kernel and userland daemon, but then screws things up instead of correct handling of the error: autofs: kernel does not match daemon version ===================================== [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ] ------------------------------------- automount/4199 is trying to release lock (&type->s_umount_key) at: [<c0163b9e>] get_sb_nodev+0x76/0xa4 but there are no more locks to release! other info that might help us debug this: no locks held by automount/4199. stack backtrace: [<c0103b15>] dump_trace+0x68/0x1b2 [<c0103c77>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x18/0x2c [<c01041db>] show_trace+0xf/0x11 [<c010424d>] dump_stack+0x12/0x14 [<c012e02c>] print_unlock_inbalance_bug+0xe7/0xf3 [<c012fd4f>] lock_release+0x8d/0x164 [<c012b452>] up_write+0x14/0x27 [<c0163b9e>] get_sb_nodev+0x76/0xa4 [<c0163689>] vfs_kern_mount+0x83/0xf6 [<c016373e>] do_kern_mount+0x2d/0x3e [<c017513f>] do_mount+0x607/0x67a [<c0175224>] sys_mount+0x72/0xa4 [<c0102b96>] sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0x99 DWARF2 unwinder stuck at sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0x99 Leftover inexact backtrace: ======================= and then deadlock comes. The problem: autofs_fill_super() returns EINVAL to get_sb_nodev(), but before that, it calls kill_anon_super() to destroy the superblock which won't be needed. This is however way too soon to call kill_anon_super(), because get_sb_nodev() has to perform its own cleanup of the superblock first (deactivate_super(), etc.). The correct time to call kill_anon_super() is in the autofs_kill_sb() callback, which is called by deactivate_super() at proper time, when the superblock is ready to be killed. I can see the same faulty codepath also in autofs4. This patch solves issues in both filesystems in a same way - it postpones the kill_anon_super() until the proper time is signalized by deactivate_super() calling the kill_sb() callback.

Hisashi Hifumi authored
In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and waited for IO completion. But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was not waited for IO completion. Following patch solves this problem. If it is assumed that a buffer is submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

We add a save link for O_DIRECT writes to protect the i_size against the crashes before we actually finish the I/O. If we hit an -ENOSPC in aops->prepare_write(), we would do a truncate() to release the blocks which might have got initialized. Now the truncate would add another save link for the same inode causing a reiserfs panic for having multiple save links for the same inode. Signed-off-by:

Some dentries don't need to be globally visible in dentry hashtable. (pipes & sockets) Such dentries dont need to wait for a RCU grace period at delete time.

We currently insert pipe dentries into the global dentry hashtable. This is suboptimal because there is currently no way these entries can be used for a lookup(). (/proc/xxx/fd/xxx uses a different mechanism). Inserting them in dentry hashtable slows dcache lookups. To let __dpath() still work correctly (ie not adding a " (deleted)") after dentry name, we do : - Right after d_alloc(), pretend they are hashed by clearing the DCACHE_UNHASHED bit. - Call d_instantiate() instead of d_add() : dentry is not inserted in hash table. __dpath() & friends work as intended during dentry lifetime. - At dismantle time, once dput() must clear the dentry, setting again DCACHE_UNHASHED bit inside the custom d_delete() function provided by pipe code, so that dput() can just kill_it. This patch, combined with (avoid RCU for never hashed dentries) reduced time of { pipe(p); close(p[0]); close(p[1]);} on my UP machine (1.6GHz Pentium-M) from 3.23 us to 2.86 us (But this patch does not depend on other patches, only bench results) Signed-off-by:

Steve Grubb's fzfuzzer tool (http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/ fsfuzzer-0.6.tar.gz) generates corrupt Cramfs filesystems which cause Cramfs to kernel oops in cramfs_uncompress_block(). The cause of the oops is an unchecked corrupted block length field read by cramfs_readpage(). This patch adds a sanity check to cramfs_readpage() which checks that the block length field is sensible. The (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1) size check is intentional, even though the uncompressed data is not going to be larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, gzip sometimes generates compressed data larger than the original source data. Mkcramfs checks that the compressed size is always less than or equal to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1. Of course Cramfs could use the original uncompressed data in this case, but it doesn't. Signed-off-by:
