2012-06-01reiserfs: remove useless superblock dirtyingArtem Bityutskiy
The 'reiserfs_resize()' function marks the superblock as dirty by assigning 1 to 's_dirt' and then calls 'journal_mark_dirty()' which does the same. Thus, we can remove the assignment from 'reiserfs_resize()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-06-01reiserfs: clean-up function return typeArtem Bityutskiy
Turn 'reiserfs_flush_old_commits()' into a void function because the callers do not cares about what it returns anyway. We are going to remove the 'sb->s_dirt' field completely and this patch is a small step towards this direction.

2012-05-31pipe: return -ENOIOCTLCMD instead of -EINVAL on unknown ioctl commandWill Deacon
As described in commit 07d106d0a ("vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling"), drivers should return -ENOIOCTLCMD if they receive an ioctl command which they don't understand. Doing so will result in -ENOTTY being returned to userspace, which matches the behaviour of the compat layer if it fails to translate an ioctl command. This patch fixes the pipe ioctl to return -ENOIOCTLCMD instead of -EINVAL when passed an unknown ioctl command.

2012-05-31vfs: stop d_splice_alias creating directory aliasesJ. Bruce Fields
A directory should never have more than one dentry pointing to it. But d_splice_alias() will add one if it finds a directory with an already-existing non-DISCONNECTED dentry. I can't find an obvious reproducer, but I also can't see what prevents d_splice_alias() from encountering such a case. It therefore seems safest to allow d_splice_alias to use any dentry it finds. (Prior to the removal of dentry_unhash() from vfs_rmdir(), around v3.0, this could cause an nfsd deadlock like this: - Somebody attempts to remove a non-empty directory. - The dentry_unhash() in vfs_rmdir() unhashes the dentry pointing to the non-empty directory. - ->rmdir() then fails with -ENOTEMPTY - Before the vfs_rmdir() caller reaches dput(), an nfsd process in rename looks up the directory by filehandle; at the end of that lookup, this dentry is found by d_alloc_anon(), and a reference is taken on it, preventing dput() from removing it. - A regular lookup of the directory calls d_splice_alias(), finds only an unhashed (not a DISCONNECTED) dentry, and insteads adds a new one, so the directory now has two dentries. - The nfsd process in rename, which was previously looking up the source directory of the rename, now looks up the target directory (which is the same), and gets the dentry newly created by the previous lookup. - The rename, seeing two different dentries, assumes this is a cross-directory rename and attempts to take the i_mutex on the directory twice. That reproducer no longer exists, but I don't think there was anything fundamentally incorrect about the vfs_rmdir() behavior there, so I think the real fault was here in d_splice_alias().)

2012-05-31fsnotify: handle subfiles' perm eventsNaohiro Aota
Recently I'm working on fanotify and found the following strange behaviors. I wrote a program to set fanotify_mark on "/tmp/block" and FAN_DENY all events notified. fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_EVENTS | FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo cat: foo: Operation not permitted Operation on the file is blocked as expected. But, fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo aaa It's not blocked anymore. This is confusing behavior. Also reading commit "fsnotify: call fsnotify_parent in perm events", it seems like fsnotify should handle subfiles' perm events as well as the other notify events. With this patch, regardless of FAN_ALL_EVENTS set or not: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo cat: foo: Operation not permitted Operation on the file is now blocked properly. FS_OPEN_PERM and FS_ACCESS_PERM are not listed on FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD. Due to fsnotify_inode_watches_children() check, if you only specify only these events as fsnotify_mask, you don't get subfiles' perm events notified. This patch add the events to FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD to get them notified even if only these events are specified to fsnotify_mask.

2012-05-31vfs: increment iversion when a file is truncatedDmitry Kasatkin
When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, iversion is not updated. This patch uses ATTR_SIZE flag as an indication to increment iversion. Mimi said: On fput(), i_version is used to detect and flag files that have changed and need to be re-measured in the IMA measurement policy. When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, i_version is not updated. As a result, although the file has changed, it will not be re-measured and added to the IMA measurement list on subsequent access.

2012-05-31jffs2: get rid of jffs2_sync_superArtem Bityutskiy
Currently JFFS2 file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the write-buffer. Namely, it uses VFS services to synchronize the write-buffer periodically. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread. This patch switches the JFFS2 write-buffer management from '->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to a delayed work. Instead of setting the 's_dirt' flag we just schedule a delayed work for synchronizing the write-buffer.

2012-05-31jffs2: remove unnecessary GC pass on syncArtem Bityutskiy
We do not need to call 'jffs2_write_super()' on sync. This function causes a GC pass to make sure the current contents is pushed out with the data which we already have on the media. But this is not needed on unmount and only slows sync down unnecessarily. It is enough to just sync the write-buffer. This call was added by one of the generic VFS rework patch-sets, see d579ed00aa96a7f7486978540a0d7cecaff742ae.

2012-05-30brlocks/lglocks: API cleanupsAndi Kleen
lglocks and brlocks are currently generated with some complicated macros in lglock.h. But there's no reason to not just use common utility functions and put all the data into a common data structure. In preparation, this patch changes the API to look more like normal function calls with pointers, not magic macros. The patch is rather large because I move over all users in one go to keep it bisectable. This impacts the VFS somewhat in terms of lines changed. But no actual behaviour change.

2012-05-30brlocks/lglocks: turn into functionsAndi Kleen
lglocks and brlocks are currently generated with some complicated macros in lglock.h. But there's no reason to not just use common utility functions and put all the data into a common data structure. Since there are at least two users it makes sense to share this code in a library. This is also easier maintainable than a macro forest. This will also make it later possible to dynamically allocate lglocks and also use them in modules (this would both still need some additional, but now straightforward, code) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
