ef581a7428 autofs4: fix symlink name allocation
The length of the symlink name has been moved but it needs to be set
before allocating space for it in the dentry info struct.  This corrects a
mistake in a recent patch.

2576737873 autofs4: use look aside list for lookups
A while ago a patch to resolve a deadlock during directory creation was
merged.  This delayed the hashing of lookup dentrys until the ->mkdir()
(or ->symlink()) operation completed to ensure we always went through
->lookup() instead of also having processes go through ->revalidate() so
our VFS locking remained consistent.

Now we are seeing a couple of side affects of that change in situations
with heavy mount activity.

Two cases have been identified:

1) When a mount request is triggered, due to the delayed hashing, the
   directory created by user space for the mount point doesn't have the
   DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag set.  In the case of an autofs multi-mount
   where a tree of mount point directories are created this can lead to
   the path walk continuing rather than the dentry being sent to the wait
   queue to wait for request completion.  This is because, if the pending
   flag isn't set, the criteria for deciding this is a mount in progress
   fails to hold, namely that the dentry is not a mount point and has no
   subdirectories.

2) A mount request dentry is initially created negative and unhashed.
   It remains this way until the ->mkdir() callback completes.  Since it
   is unhashed a fresh dentry is used when the user space mount request
   creates the mount point directory.  This leaves the original dentry
   negative and unhashed.  But revalidate has no way to tell the VFS that
   the dentry has changed, other than to force another ->lookup() by
   returning false, which is at best wastefull and at worst not possible.
   This results in an -ENOENT return from the original path walk when in
   fact the mount succeeded.

To resolve this we need to ensure that the same dentry is used in all
calls to ->lookup() during the course of a mount request.  This patch
achieves that by adding the initial dentry to a look aside list and
removes it at ->mkdir() or ->symlink() completion (or when the dentry is
released), since these are the only create operations autofs4 supports.

caf7da3d5d autofs4: revert - redo lookup in ttfd
This patch series enables the use of a single dentry for lookups prior to
the dentry being hashed and so we no longer need to redo the lookup.  This
patch reverts the patch of commit
033790449b.

5f6f4f28b6 autofs4: don't make expiring dentry negative
Correct the error of making a positive dentry negative after it has been
instantiated.

The code that makes this error attempts to re-use the dentry from a
concurrent expire and mount to resolve a race and the dentry used for the
lookup must be negative for mounts to trigger in the required cases.  The
fact is that the dentry doesn't need to be re-used because all that is
needed is to preserve the flag that indicates an expire is still
incomplete at the time of the mount request.

This change uses the the dentry to check the flag and wait for the expire
to complete then discards it instead of attempting to re-use it.

391b52f98c eCryptfs: Make all persistent file opens delayed
There is no good reason to immediately open the lower file, and that can
cause problems with files that the user does not intend to immediately
open, such as device nodes.

This patch removes the persistent file open from the interpose step and
pushes that to the locations where eCryptfs really does need the lower
persistent file, such as just before reading or writing the metadata
stored in the lower file header.

Two functions are jumping to out_dput when they should just be jumping to
out on error paths.  This patch also fixes these.

72b55fffd6 eCryptfs: do not try to open device files on mknod
When creating device nodes, eCryptfs needs to delay actually opening the lower
persistent file until an application tries to open.  Device handles may not be
backed by anything when they first come into existence.

6c4c17b073 ecryptfs: discard ecryptfsd registration messages in miscdev
The userspace eCryptfs daemon sends HELO and QUIT messages to the kernel
for per-user daemon (un)registration.  These messages are required when
netlink is used as the transport, but (un)registration is handled by
opening and closing the device file when miscdev is the transport.  These
messages should be discarded in the miscdev transport so that a daemon
isn't registered twice.

746f1e558b eCryptfs: Privileged kthread for lower file opens
eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the
lower filesystem.  Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened
read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails.  One way to keep
from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the
lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file;
this patch implements this functionality.

This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs
file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with
the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to
both read and write.  eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up
calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only.  This is fixed in
this patch.

99829b8329 flag parameters: NONBLOCK in anon_inode_getfd
Building on the previous change to anon_inode_getfd, this patch introduces
support for handling of O_NONBLOCK in addition to the already supported
O_CLOEXEC.  Following patches will take advantage of this support.  As can be
seen, the additional support for supporting this functionality is minimal.

4006553b06 flag parameters: inotify_init
This patch introduces the new syscall inotify_init1 (note: the 1 stands for
the one parameter the syscall takes, as opposed to no parameter before).  The
values accepted for this parameter are function-specific and defined in the
inotify.h header.  Here the values must match the O_* flags, though.  In this
patch CLOEXEC support is introduced.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

ed8cae8ba0 flag parameters: pipe
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value.  This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag.  I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation.  I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.

The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags.  I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code.  To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags.  Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

This patch just extends the anon_inode_getfd interface to take an additional

get_unused_fd_flags in anticipation for a use with the O_CLOEXEC flag.

No actual semantic changes here, the changed callers all pass 0 for now.

- This option causes the mount code to find the hstate corresponding to the
  specified size, and sets up a pointer to the hstate in the mount's
  superblock.
- Change the hstate accessors to use this information rather than the
  global_hstate they were using (requires a slight change in mm/memory.c
  so we don't NULL deref in the error-unmap path -- see comments).

a551643895 hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes.  This
is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which
encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg.  huge page
size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc).

The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these
fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they
are operating on.

This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it
(default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the
hstate.

Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different
hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

a47a126ad5 vmallocinfo: add NUMA information
Christoph recently added /proc/vmallocinfo file to get information about
vmalloc allocations.

This patch adds NUMA specific information, giving number of pages
allocated on each memory node.

This should help to check that vmalloc() is able to respect NUMA policies.

Example of output on a four nodes machine (one cpu per node)

1) network hash tables are evenly spreaded on four nodes (OK) (Same
   point for inodes and dentries hash tables)

2) iptables tables (x_tables) are correctly allocated on each cpu node
   (OK).

3) sys_swapon() allocates its memory from one node only.

4) each loaded module is using memory on one node.

Sysadmins could tune their setup to change points 3) and 4) if necessary.

04f2cbe356 hugetlb: guarantee that COW faults for a process that called mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) on hugetlbfs will succeed
After patch 2 in this series, a process that successfully calls mmap() for
a MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be guaranteed to successfully fault until a
process calls fork().  At that point, the next write fault from the parent
could fail due to COW if the child still has a reference.

We only reserve pages for the parent but a copy must be made to avoid
leaking data from the parent to the child after fork().  Reserves could be
taken for both parent and child at fork time to guarantee faults but if
the mapping is large it is highly likely we will not have sufficient pages
for the reservation, and it is common to fork only to exec() immediatly
after.  A failure here would be very undesirable.

Note that the current behaviour of mainline with MAP_PRIVATE pages is
pretty bad.  The following situation is allowed to occur today.

1. Process calls mmap(MAP_PRIVATE)
2. Process calls mlock() to fault all pages and makes sure it succeeds
3. Process forks()
4. Process writes to MAP_PRIVATE mapping while child still exists
5. If the COW fails at this point, the process gets SIGKILLed even though it
   had taken care to ensure the pages existed

This patch improves the situation by guaranteeing the reliability of the
process that successfully calls mmap().  When the parent performs COW, it
will try to satisfy the allocation without using reserves.  If that fails
the parent will steal the page leaving any children without a page.
Faults from the child after that point will result in failure.  If the
child COW happens first, an attempt will be made to allocate the page
without reserves and the child will get SIGKILLed on failure.

To summarise the new behaviour:

1. If the original mapper performs COW on a private mapping with multiple
   references, it will attempt to allocate a hugepage from the pool or
   the buddy allocator without using the existing reserves. On fail, VMAs
   mapping the same area are traversed and the page being COW'd is unmapped
   where found. It will then steal the original page as the last mapper in
   the normal way.

2. The VMAs the pages were unmapped from are flagged to note that pages
   with data no longer exist. Future no-page faults on those VMAs will
   terminate the process as otherwise it would appear that data was corrupted.
   A warning is printed to the console that this situation occured.

2. If the child performs COW first, it will attempt to satisfy the COW
   from the pool if there are enough pages or via the buddy allocator if
   overcommit is allowed and the buddy allocator can satisfy the request. If
   it fails, the child will be killed.

If the pool is large enough, existing applications will not notice that
the reserves were a factor.  Existing applications depending on the
no-reserves been set are unlikely to exist as for much of the history of
hugetlbfs, pages were prefaulted at mmap(), allocating the pages at that
point or failing the mmap().

a1e78772d7 hugetlb: reserve huge pages for reliable MAP_PRIVATE hugetlbfs mappings until fork()
This patch reserves huge pages at mmap() time for MAP_PRIVATE mappings in
a similar manner to the reservations taken for MAP_SHARED mappings.  The
reserve count is accounted both globally and on a per-VMA basis for
private mappings.  This guarantees that a process that successfully calls
mmap() will successfully fault all pages in the future unless fork() is
called.

The characteristics of private mappings of hugetlbfs files behaviour after
this patch are;

1. The process calling mmap() is guaranteed to succeed all future faults until
   it forks().
2. On fork(), the parent may die due to SIGKILL on writes to the private
   mapping if enough pages are not available for the COW. For reasonably
   reliable behaviour in the face of a small huge page pool, children of
   hugepage-aware processes should not reference the mappings; such as
   might occur when fork()ing to exec().
3. On fork(), the child VMAs inherit no reserves. Reads on pages already
   faulted by the parent will succeed. Successful writes will depend on enough
   huge pages being free in the pool.
4. Quotas of the hugetlbfs mount are checked at reserve time for the mapper
   and at fault time otherwise.

Before this patch, all reads or writes in the child potentially needs page
allocations that can later lead to the death of the parent.  This applies
to reads and writes of uninstantiated pages as well as COW.  After the
patch it is only a write to an instantiated page that causes problems.

da3bbdd463 fix soft lock up at NFS mount via per-SB LRU-list of unused dentries
[Summary]

 Split LRU-list of unused dentries to one per superblock to avoid soft
 lock up during NFS mounts and remounting of any filesystem.

 Previously I posted here:
 http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/5/590

[Descriptions]

- background

  dentry_unused is a list of dentries which are not referenced.
  dentry_unused grows up when references on directories or files are
  released.  This list can be very long if there is huge free memory.

- the problem

  When shrink_dcache_sb() is called, it scans all dentry_unused linearly
  under spin_lock(), and if dentry->d_sb is differnt from given
  superblock, scan next dentry.  This scan costs very much if there are
  many entries, and very ineffective if there are many superblocks.

  IOW, When we need to shrink unused dentries on one dentry, but scans
  unused dentries on all superblocks in the system.  For example, we scan
  500 dentries to unmount a filesystem, but scans 1,000,000 or more unused
  dentries on other superblocks.

  In our case , At mounting NFS*, shrink_dcache_sb() is called to shrink
  unused dentries on NFS, but scans 100,000,000 unused dentries on
  superblocks in the system such as local ext3 filesystems.  I hear NFS
  mounting took 1 min on some system in use.

* : NFS uses virtual filesystem in rpc layer, so NFS is affected by
  this problem.

  100,000,000 is possible number on large systems.

  Per-superblock LRU of unused dentried can reduce the cost in
  reasonable manner.

- How to fix

  I found this problem is solved by David Chinner's "Per-superblock
  unused dentry LRU lists V3"(1), so I rebase it and add some fix to
  reclaim with fairness, which is in Andrew Morton's comments(2).

  1) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/318
  2) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/320

  Split LRU-list of unused dentries to each superblocks.  Then, NFS
  mounting will check dentries under a superblock instead of all.  But
  this spliting will break LRU of dentry-unused.  So, I've attempted to
  make reclaim unused dentrins with fairness by calculate number of
  dentries to scan on this sb based on following way

  number of dentries to scan on this sb =
  count * (number of dentries on this sb / number of dentries in the machine)

- ToDo
 - I have to measuring performance number and do stress tests.

 - When unmount occurs during prune_dcache(), scanning on same
  superblock, It is unable to reach next superblock because it is gone
  away.  We restart scannig superblock from first one, it causes
  unfairness of reclaim unused dentries on first superblock.  But I think
  this happens very rarely.

- Test Results

  Result on 6GB boxes with excessive unused dentries.

6519108746 execve filename: document and export via auxiliary vector
The Linux kernel puts the filename argument of execve() into the new
address space.  Many developers are surprised to learn this.  Those who
know and could use it, object "But it's not documented."

Those who want to use it dislike the expression
  (char *)(1+ strlen(env[-1+ n_env]) + env[-1+ n_env])
because it requires locating the last original environment variable,
and assumes that the filename follows the characters.

This patch documents the insertion of the filename, and makes it easier
to find by adding a new tag AT_EXECFN in the ElfXX_auxv_t; see <elf.h>.

In many cases readlink("/proc/self/exe",) gives the same answer.  But if
all the original pages get unmapped, then the kernel erases the symlink
for /proc/self/exe.  This can happen when a program decompressor does a
good job of cleaning up after uncompressing directly to memory, so that
the address space of the target program looks the same as if compression
had never happened.  One example is http://upx.sourceforge.net .

One notable use of the underlying concept (what path containED the
executable) is glibc expanding $ORIGIN in DT_RUNPATH.  In practice for
the near term, it may be a good idea for user-mode code to use both
/proc/self/exe and AT_EXECFN as fall-back methods for each other.
/proc/self/exe can fail due to unmapping, AT_EXECFN can fail because it
won't be present on non-new systems.  The auxvec or {AT_EXECFN}.d_val
also can get overwritten, although in nearly all cases this would be the
result of a bug.

The runtime cost is one NEW_AUX_ENT using two words of stack space.  The
underlying value is maintained already as bprm->exec; setup_arg_pages()
in fs/exec.c slides it for stack_shift, etc.

driver core: Suppress sysfs warnings for device_rename().

Renaming network devices to an already existing name is not
something we want sysfs to print a scary warning for, since the
callers can deal with this correctly. So let's introduce
sysfs_create_link_nowarn() which gets rid of the common warning.

9505e63756 debugfs: Implement debugfs_remove_recursive()
debugfs_remove_recursive() will remove a dentry and all its children.
Drivers can use this to zap their whole debugfs tree so that they don't
need to keep track of every single debugfs dentry they created.

It may fail to remove the whole tree in certain cases:

sh-3.2# rmmod atmel-mci < /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/ios/clock
mmc0: card b368 removed
atmel_mci atmel_mci.0: Lost dma0chan1, falling back to PIO
sh-3.2# ls /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/
ios

But I'm not sure if that case can be handled in any sane manner.

93265d13ea sysfs: don't call notify_change
sysfs_chmod_file() calls notify_change() to change the permission bits
on a sysfs file.  Replace with explicit call to sysfs_setattr() and
fsnotify_change().

This is equivalent, except that security_inode_setattr() is not
called.  This function is called by drivers, so the security checks do
not make any sense.
