2011-07-26vfs: document locking requirements for d_move, __d_move and d_materialise_uniqueJeff Layton
Adding a comment to d_materialise_unique per Al's request... d_move and __d_move have some pretty substantial locking requirements, but they are not clearly documented. Add some comments spelling them out. Also, document the requirement for the i_mutex of the parent in d_materialise_unique.

2011-07-25vfs: move ACL cache lookup into generic codeLinus Torvalds
This moves logic for checking the cached ACL values from low-level filesystems into generic code. The end result is a streamlined ACL check that doesn't need to load the inode->i_op->check_acl pointer at all for the common cached case. The filesystems also don't need to check for a non-blocking RCU walk case in their acl_check() functions, because that is all handled at a VFS layer.

2011-07-25CIFS: Fix oops while mounting with prefixpathPavel Shilovsky
commit fec11dd9a0109fe52fd631e5c510778d6cbff6cc caused a regression when we have already mounted //server/share/a and want to mount //server/share/a/b. The problem is that lookup_one_len calls __lookup_hash with nd pointer as NULL. Then __lookup_hash calls do_revalidate in the case when dentry exists and we end up with NULL pointer deference in cifs_d_revalidate: if (nd->flags & LOOKUP_RCU) return -ECHILD; Fix this by checking nd for NULL.

2011-07-24VFS : mount lock scalability for internal mountsTim Chen
For a number of file systems that don't have a mount point (e.g. sockfs and pipefs), they are not marked as long term. Therefore in mntput_no_expire, all locks in vfs_mount lock are taken instead of just local cpu's lock to aggregate reference counts when we release reference to file objects. In fact, only local lock need to have been taken to update ref counts as these file systems are in no danger of going away until we are ready to unregister them. The attached patch marks file systems using kern_mount without mount point as long term. The contentions of vfs_mount lock is now eliminated. Before un-registering such file system, kern_unmount should be called to remove the long term flag and make the mount point ready to be freed.

2011-07-22isofs: Remove global fs lockJan Kara
sbi->s_mutex isn't needed for isofs at all so we can just remove it. Generally, since isofs is always mounted read-only, filesystem structure cannot change under us. So buffer_head contents stays constant after it's filled in. That leaves us with possible changes of global data structures. Superblock changes only during filesystem mount (even remount does not change it), inodes are only filled in during reading from disk. So there are no changes of these structures to bother about. Arguments why sbi->s_mutex can be removed at each place: isofs_readdir: Accesses sb, inode, filp, local variables => s_mutex not needed isofs_lookup: Protected by directory's i_mutex. Accesses sb, inode, dentry, local variables => s_mutex not needed rock_ridge_symlink_readpage: Protected by page lock. Accesses sb, inode, local variables => s_mutex not needed.

But in the likely case it triggers the problem: de_thread() does release_task() and the old leader goes away without the notification, the tracer sleeps in do_wait() without children/tracees. Change de_thread() to do __wake_up_parent(traced_leader->parent). Since it is already EXIT_DEAD we can do this without ptrace_unlink(), EXIT_DEAD threads do not exist from do_wait's pov.
