2010-08-07AFS: Fix the module init error handlingDavid Howells
Fix the module init error handling. There are a bunch of goto labels for aborting the init procedure at different points and just undoing what needs undoing - they aren't all in the right places, however.

2010-08-06nfsd: don't allow setting maxblksize after svc createdJ. Bruce Fields
It's harmless to set this after the server is created, but also ineffective, since the value is only used at the time of svc_create_pooled(). So fail the attempt, in keeping with the pattern set by write_versions, write_{lease,grace}time and write_recoverydir. (This could break userspace that tried to write to nfsd/max_block_size between setting up sockets and starting the server. However, such code wouldn't have worked anyway, and I don't know of any examples--rpc.nfsd in nfs-utils, probably the only user of the interface, doesn't do that.) Signed-off-by: J.

2010-08-06nfsd: initialize nfsd versions before creating svcJ. Bruce Fields
Commit 59db4a0c102e0de226a3395dbf25ea51bf845937 "nfsd: move more into nfsd_startup()" inadvertently moved nfsd_versions after nfsd_create_svc(). On older distributions using an rpc.nfsd that does not explicitly set the list of nfsd versions, this results in svc-create_pooled() being called with an empty versions array. The resulting incomplete initialization leads to a NULL dereference in svc_process_common() the first time a client accesses the server. Move nfsd_reset_versions() back before the svc_create_pooled(); this time, put it closer to the svc_create_pooled() call, to make this mistake more difficult in the future. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2010-08-06nfsd41: Fix a crash when a callback is retriedBoaz Harrosh
If a callback is retried at nfsd4_cb_recall_done() due to some error, the returned rpc reply crashes here: @@ -514,6 +514,7 @@ decode_cb_sequence(struct xdr_stream *xdr, struct nfsd4_cb_sequence *res, u32 dummy; __be32 *p; + BUG_ON(!res); if (res->cbs_minorversion == 0) return 0; [BUG_ON added for demonstration] This is because the nfsd4_cb_done_sequence() has NULLed out the task->tk_msg.rpc_resp pointer. Also eventually the rpc would use the new slot without making sure it is free by calling nfsd41_cb_setup_sequence(). This problem was introduced by a 4.1 protocol addition patch: [0421b5c5] nfsd41: Backchannel: Implement cb_recall over NFSv4.1 Which was overlooking the possibility of an RPC callback retries.

2010-08-06Fix init ordering of /dev/console vs callers of modprobeDavid Howells
Make /dev/console get initialised before any initialisation routine that invokes modprobe because if modprobe fails, it's going to want to open /dev/console, presumably to write an error message to. The problem with that is that if the /dev/console driver is not yet initialised, the chardev handler will call request_module() to invoke modprobe, which will fail, because we never compile /dev/console as a module. This will lead to a modprobe loop, showing the following in the kernel log: request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 This can happen, for example, when the built in md5 module can't find the built in cryptomgr module (because the latter fails to initialise). The md5 module comes before the call to tty_init(), presumably because 'crypto' comes before 'drivers' alphabetically. Fix this by calling tty_init() from chrdev_init().

2010-08-05ext4: Adding error check after calling ext4_mb_regular_allocator()Aditya Kali
If the bitmap block on disk is bad, ext4_mb_load_buddy() returns an error. This error is returned to the caller, ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and then to ext4_mb_new_blocks(). But ext4_mb_new_blocks() did not check for the return value of ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and would repeatedly try to load the bitmap block. The fix simply catches the return value and exits out of the 'repeat' loop after cleanup. We also take the opportunity to clean up the error handling in ext4_mb_new_blocks().

2010-08-05ext3: Fix dirtying of journalled buffers in data=journal modeJan Kara
In data=journal mode, we still use block_write_begin() to prepare page for writing. This function can occasionally mark buffer dirty which violates journalling assumptions - when a buffer is part of a transaction, it should be dirty and a buffer can be already part of a forget list of some transaction when block_write_begin() gets called. This violation of journalling assumptions then results in "JBD: Spotted dirty metadata buffer..." warnings. In fact, temporary dirtying the buffer while the page is still locked does not really cause problems to the journalling because we won't write the buffer until the page gets unlocked. So we just have to make sure to clear dirty bits before unlocking the page. Reviewed-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

2010-08-05DNS: Separate out CIFS DNS Resolver codeWang Lei
Separate out the DNS resolver key type from the CIFS filesystem into its own module so that it can be made available for general use, including the AFS filesystem module. This facility makes it possible for the kernel to upcall to userspace to have it issue DNS requests, package up the replies and present them to the kernel in a useful form. The kernel is then able to cache the DNS replies as keys can be retained in keyrings. Resolver keys are of type "dns_resolver" and have a case-insensitive description that is of the form "[<type>:]<domain_name>". The optional <type> indicates the particular DNS lookup and packaging that's required. The <domain_name> is the query to be made. If <type> isn't given, a basic hostname to IP address lookup is made, and the result is stored in the key in the form of a printable string consisting of a comma-separated list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This key type is supported by userspace helpers driven from /sbin/request-key and configured through /etc/request-key.conf. The cifs.upcall utility is invoked for UNC path server name to IP address resolution. The CIFS functionality is encapsulated by the dns_resolve_unc_to_ip() function, which is used to resolve a UNC path to an IP address for CIFS filesystem. This part remains in the CIFS module for now. See the added Documentation/networking/dns_resolver.txt for more information.

From: Suresh Jayaraman <sjayaraman@suse.de> Subject: [PATCH 1/2] cifs: show features compiled in as part of DebugData This patch adds the features that are compiled in to the CIFS debugging data as shown below: $cat /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData Display Internal CIFS Data Structures for Debugging --------------------------------------------------- CIFS Version 1.64 Features: dfs fscache posix spnego xattr Active VFS Requests: 0 ... This patch provides a definitive way to tell what features are currently enabled in the running kernel. This could also help debugging.

2010-08-05ext4: re-inline ext4_rec_len_(to|from)_disk functionsEric Sandeen
commit 3d0518f4, "ext4: New rec_len encoding for very large blocksizes" made several changes to this path, but from a perf perspective, un-inlining ext4_rec_len_from_disk() seems most significant. This function is called from ext4_check_dir_entry(), which on a file-creation workload is called extremely often. I tested this with bonnie: # bonnie++ -u root -s 0 -f -x 200 -d /mnt/test -n 32 (this does 200 iterations) and got this for the file creations: ext4 stock: Average = 21206.8 files/s ext4 inlined: Average = 22346.7 files/s (+5%) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2010-08-04block_dev: always serialize exclusive open attemptsTejun Heo
bd_prepare_to_claim() incorrectly allowed multiple attempts for exclusive open to progress in parallel if the attempting holders are identical. This triggered BUG_ON() as reported in the following bug. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16393 __bd_abort_claiming() is used to finish claiming blocks and doesn't work if multiple openers are inside a claiming block. Allowing multiple parallel open attempts to continue doesn't gain anything as those are serialized down in the call chain anyway. Fix it by always allowing only single open attempt in a claiming block. This problem can easily be reproduced by adding a delay after bd_prepare_to_claim() and attempting to mount two partitions of a disk. stable: only applicable to v2.6.35 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Markus Trippelsdorf <markus@trippelsdorf.de> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
