In REF-walk mode, ->d_manage can return -EISDIR to indicate
that the dentry is not really a mount trap (or even a mount point)
and that any mounts or any DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT flag should be
ignored.
RCU-walk mode doesn't currently support this, so if there is a dentry
with DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT set but which shouldn't be a mount-trap,
lookup_fast() will always drop in REF-walk mode.
With this patch, an -EISDIR from ->d_manage will always cause mounts
and automounts to be ignored, both in REF-walk and RCU-walk.

Christoph Hellwig suggests:
1) make vfs_rename call ->rename2 if it exists instead of ->rename
2) switch all filesystems that you're adding NOREPLACE support for to
use ->rename2
3) see how many ->rename instances we'll have left after a few
iterations of 2.

Rather than playing silly buggers with vfsmount refcounts, just have
acct_on() ask fs/namespace.c for internal clone of file->f_path.mnt
and replace it with said clone. Then attach the pin to original
vfsmount. Voila - the clone will be alive until the file gets closed,
making sure that underlying superblock remains active, etc., and
we can drop the original vfsmount, so that it's not kept busy.
If the file lives until the final mntput of the original vfsmount,
we'll notice that there's an fs_pin (one in bsd_acct_struct that
holds that file) and mnt_pin_kill() will take it out. Since
->kill() is synchronous, we won't proceed past that point until
these files are closed (and private clones of our vfsmount are
gone), so we get the same ordering warranties we used to get.
mnt_pin()/mnt_unpin()/->mnt_pinned is gone now, and good riddance -
it never became usable outside of kernel/acct.c (and racy wrt
umount even there).

Add a new field to fs_pin - kill(pin). That's what umount and r/o remount
will be calling for all pins attached to vfsmount and superblock resp.
Called after bumping the refcount, so it won't go away under us. Dropping
the refcount is responsibility of the instance. All generic stuff moved to
fs/fs_pin.c; the next step will rip all the knowledge of kernel/acct.c from
fs/super.c and fs/namespace.c. After that - death to mnt_pin(); it was
intended to be usable as generic mechanism for code that wants to attach
objects to vfsmount, so that they would not make the sucker busy and
would get killed on umount. Never got it right; it remained acct.c-specific
all along. Now it's very close to being killable.

just repeat the frozen check after regaining it, and check that sb
is still alive. If several threads hit acct_auto_close() at the
same time, acct_auto_close() will survive that just fine. And we
really don't want to play with writes and closing the file with
->s_umount held exclusive - it's a deadlock country.

Commit 8c7424cff6 "nfsd4: don't try to encode conflicting owner if low
on space" forgot to free conf->data in nfsd4_encode_lockt and before
sign conf->data to NULL in nfsd4_encode_lock_denied, causing a leak.
Worse, kfree() can be called on an uninitialized pointer in the case of
a succesful lock (or one that fails for a reason other than a conflict).
(Note that lock->lk_denied.ld_owner.data appears it should be zero here,
until you notice that it's one arm of a union the other arm of which is
written to in the succesful case by the
memcpy(&lock->lk_resp_stateid, &lock_stp->st_stid.sc_stateid,
sizeof(stateid_t));

xfstests generic/127 detected this problem.
With commit 7fc34a62ca4434a79c68e23e70ed26111b7a4cf8, now fsync will only flush
data within the passed range. This is the cause of the above problem,
-- btrfs's fsync has a stage called 'sync log' which will wait for all the
ordered extents it've recorded to finish.
In xfstests/generic/127, with mixed operations such as truncate, fallocate,
punch hole, and mapwrite, we get some pre-allocated extents, and mapwrite will
mmap, and then msync. And I find that msync will wait for quite a long time
(about 20s in my case), thanks to ftrace, it turns out that the previous
fallocate calls 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' to flush dirty pages, but as the
range of dirty pages may be larger than 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' wants,
there can be some ordered extents created but not getting corresponding pages
flushed, then they're left in memory until we fsync which runs into the
stage 'sync log', and fsync will just wait for the system writeback thread
to flush those pages and get ordered extents finished, so the latency is
inevitable.
This adds a flush similar to btrfs_start_ordered_extent() in
btrfs_wait_logged_extents() to fix that.

This patch removes the GLF_NOCACHE flag from the glocks associated with
flocks. There should be no good reason not to cache glocks for flocks:
they only force the glock to be demoted before they can be reacquired,
which can slow down performance and even cause glock hangs, especially
in cases where the flocks are held in Shared (SH) mode.

Normally GFP_KERNEL is ok here, but there is now a rarely used code path
relating to deallocation of unlinked inodes (in certain corner cases)
which if hit at times of memory shortage can cause recursion while
trying to free memory.
One solution would be to try and move the gfs2_glock_get() call so
that it is no longer called while another glock is held, but that
doesn't look at all easy, so GFP_NOFS is the best solution for the
time being.

We must not leave items on the LRU list with GLF_LOCK set, since
they can be removed if the glock is brought back into use, which
may then potentially result in a hang, waiting for GLF_LOCK to
clear.
It doesn't happen very often, since it requires a glock that has
not been used for a long time to be brought back into use at the
same moment that the shrinker is part way through disposing of
glocks.
The fix is to set GLF_LOCK at a later time, when we already know
that the other locks can be obtained. Also, we now only release
the lru_lock in case a resched is needed, rather than on every
iteration.

Function gfs2_glock_dq_wait is supposed to dequeue a glock and then
wait for the lock to be demoted. The problem is, if this is a shared
lock, its demote will depend on the other holders, which means you
might end up waiting forever because the other process is blocked.
This problem is especially apparent when dealing with nested flocks.

The read() of timerfd files allows to fetch the number of timer ticks
while there is no way to set it back from userspace.
To restore the timer's state as it was at checkpoint moment we need
a path to bring @ticks back. Initially I thought about writing ticks
back via write() interface but it seems such API is somehow obscure.
Instead implement timerfd_ioctl() method with TFD_IOC_SET_TICKS
command which allows to adjust @ticks into non-zero value waking
up the waiters.
I wrapped code with CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE which can be
dropped off if there users except c/r camp appear.

For checkpoint/restore of timerfd files we need to know how exactly
the timer were armed, to be able to recreate it on restore stage.
Thus implement show_fdinfo method which provides enough information
for that.
One of significant changes I think is the addition of @settime_flags
member. Currently there are two flags TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME and
TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET, and the second can be found from
@might_cancel variable but in case if the flags will be extended
in future we most probably will have to somehow remember them
explicitly anyway so I guss doing that right now won't hurt.
To not bloat the timerfd_ctx structure I've converted @expired
to short integer and defined @settime_flags as short too.
v2 (by avagin@, vdavydov@ and tglx@):
- Add it_value/it_interval fields
- Save flags being used in timerfd_setup in context
v3 (by tglx@):
- don't forget to use CONFIG_PROC_FS

-Use define timerfd_show NULL for non c/r config

When quota is on, it is expected that unused quota inodes have a
value of NULLFSINO. The changes to support a separate project quota
in 3.12 broken this rule for non-project quota inode enabled
filesystem, as the code now refuses to write the group quota inode
if neither group or project quotas are enabled. This regression was
introduced by commit d892d58 ("xfs: Start using pquotaino from the
superblock").
In this case, we should be writing NULLFSINO rather than nothing to
ensure that we leave the group quota inode in a valid state while
quotas are enabled.
Failure to do so doesn't cause a current kernel to break - the
separate project quota inodes introduced translation code to always
treat a zero inode as NULLFSINO. This was introduced by commit
0102629 ("xfs: Initialize all quota inodes to be NULLFSINO") with is
also in 3.12 but older kernels do not do this and hence taking a
filesystem back to an older kernel can result in quotas failing
initialisation at mount time. When that happens, we see this in
dmesg:
[ 1649.215390] XFS (sdb): Mounting Filesystem
[ 1649.316894] XFS (sdb): Failed to initialize disk quotas.
[ 1649.316902] XFS (sdb): Ending clean mount
By ensuring that we write NULLFSINO to quota inodes that aren't
active, we avoid this problem. We have to be really careful when
determining if the quota inodes are active or not, because we don't
want to write a NULLFSINO if the quota inodes are active and we
simply aren't updating them.

The allocation stack switch at xfs_bmapi_allocate() has served it's
purpose, but is no longer a sufficient solution to the stack usage
problem we have in the XFS allocation path.
Whilst the kernel stack size is now 16k, that is not a valid reason
for undoing all our "keep stack usage down" modifications. What it
does allow us to do is have the freedom to refine and perfect the
modifications knowing that if we get it wrong it won't blow up in
our faces - we have a safety net now.
This is important because we still have the issue of older kernels
having smaller stacks and that they are still supported and are
demonstrating a wide range of different stack overflows. Red Hat
has several open bugs for allocation based stack overflows from
directory modifications and direct IO block allocation and these
problems still need to be solved. If we can solve them upstream,
then distro's won't need to bake their own unique solutions.
To that end, I've observed that every allocation based stack
overflow report has had a specific characteristic - it has happened
during or directly after a bmap btree block split. That event
requires a new block to be allocated to the tree, and so we
effectively stack one allocation stack on top of another, and that's
when we get into trouble.
A further observation is that bmap btree block splits are much rarer
than writeback allocation - over a range of different workloads I've
observed the ratio of bmap btree inserts to splits ranges from 100:1
(xfstests run) to 10000:1 (local VM image server with sparse files
that range in the hundreds of thousands to millions of extents).
Either way, bmap btree split events are much, much rarer than
allocation events.
Finally, we have to move the kswapd state to the allocation workqueue
work when allocation is done on behalf of kswapd. This is proving to
cause significant perturbation in performance under memory pressure
and appears to be generating allocation deadlock warnings under some
workloads, so avoiding the use of a workqueue for the majority of
kswapd writeback allocation will minimise the impact of such
behaviour.
Hence it makes sense to move the stack switch to xfs_btree_split()
and only do it for bmap btree splits. Stack switches during
allocation will be much rarer, so there won't be significant
performacne overhead caused by switching stacks. The worse case
stack from all allocation paths will be split, not just writeback.
And the majority of memory allocations will be done in the correct
context (e.g. kswapd) without causing additional latency, and so we
simplify the memory reclaim interactions between processes,
workqueues and kswapd.
The worst stack I've been able to generate with this patch in place
is 5600 bytes deep. It's very revealing because we exit XFS at:
37) 1768 64 kmem_cache_alloc+0x13b/0x170
about 1800 bytes of stack consumed, and the remaining 3800 bytes
(and 36 functions) is memory reclaim, swap and the IO stack. And
this occurs in the inode allocation from an open(O_CREAT) syscall,
not writeback.
The amount of stack being used is much less than I've previously be
able to generate - fs_mark testing has been able to generate stack
usage of around 7k without too much trouble; with this patch it's
only just getting to 5.5k. This is primarily because the metadata
allocation paths (e.g. directory blocks) are no longer causing
double splits on the same stack, and hence now stack tracing is
showing swapping being the worst stack consumer rather than XFS.
Performance of fs_mark inode create workloads is unchanged.
Performance of fs_mark async fsync workloads is consistently good
with context switches reduced by around 150,000/s (30%).
Performance of dbench, streaming IO and postmark is unchanged.
Allocation deadlock warnings have not been seen on the workloads
that generated them since adding this patch.

This reverts commit 1f6d64829db78a7e1d63e15c9f48f0a5d2b5a679.
This commit resulted in regressions in performance in low
memory situations where kswapd was doing writeback of delayed
allocation blocks. It resulted in significant parallelism of the
kswapd work and with the special kswapd flags meant that hundreds of
active allocation could dip into kswapd specific memory reserves and
avoid being throttled. This cause a large amount of performance
variation, as well as random OOM-killer invocations that didn't
previously exist.
