Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
pointer.
This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of
sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does
require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits
the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.
linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build
successfully.
Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.
This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.
The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.
(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.
However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.
[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

It looks like metapage_releasepage was making in invalid assumption that
the releasepage method would not be called on a dirty page. Instead of
issuing a warning and releasing the metapage, it should return 0, indicating
that the private data for the page cannot be released.
I also realized that metapage_releasepage had the return code all wrong. If
it is successful in releasing the private data, it should return 1, otherwise
it needs to return 0.
Lastly, there is no need to call wait_on_page_writeback, since
try_to_release_page will not call us with a page in writback state.

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups
The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

This patch changes mpage_readpages() and get_block() to get the disk mapping
information for multiple blocks at the same time.
b_size represents the amount of disk mapping that needs to mapped. On the
successful get_block() b_size indicates the amount of disk mapping thats
actually mapped. Only the filesystems who care to use this information and
provide multiple disk blocks at a time can choose to do so.
No changes are needed for the filesystems who wants to ignore this.

Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD
memory spreading.
If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's
in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
allocation on the node local to the current cpu.
The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD:

The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple. I marked
those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch. Even
though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
spreading.
Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.

OS/2 doesn't initialize the uid, gid, or unix-style permission bits. The
uid, gid, & umask mount options perform pretty much like those for the fat
file system, overriding what is stored on disk. This is useful for users
sharing the file system with OS/2.
I implemented a little feature so that if you mask the execute bit, it
will be re-enabled on directories when the appropriate read bit is unmasked.
I didn't want to implement an fmask & dmask option.

the implementation is straight forward, except

to match with the ext2 ones to avoid a separate
tool for manipulating them (this could be avoided
when using a separate flag field in the on-disk
representation, but the overhead is minimal)
a special jfs_ioctl is added to allow for the new
JFS_IOC_GETFLAGS and JFS_IOC_SETFLAGS calls.

the flags from the on-disk version to the inode
minor changes to allow flag inheritance on inode
creation, as well as a cleanup of the on-disk
flags (including the new ones)
beforementioned helper to map between ext2 and jfs
versions of the new flags ...
the JFS_SECRM_FL and JFS_UNRM_FL are not done yet
and I'm not 100% sure they are worth the effort,

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
The xattr code has rather complex permission checks because the rules are very
different for different attribute namespaces. This patch moves as much as we
can into the generic code. Currently all the major disk based filesystems
duplicate these checks, while many minor filesystems or network filesystems
lack some or all of them.
To do this we need defines for the extended attribute names in common code, I
moved them up from JFS which had the nicest defintions.

This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it.
See mm/filemap.c:
And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range().
Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite()
returns error. However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an
error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device.
(e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC)
<quotation>
Andrew Morton writes,
If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some
I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc. Given the generally
crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a
good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state
forever.
</quotation>
So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO.
Trond, could you please review the nfs part? Especially I'm not sure,
nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with
a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of
a large anonymous area.
This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to
guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single
page_table_lock. (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page
table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)
In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the
page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in
the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.
Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access. Ideally,
I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on
multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.
So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig
language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with
NR_CPUS. But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good
testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps
change that to 8 later.
There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking
one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

- ->releasepage() annotated (s/int/gfp_t), instances updated
- missing gfp_t in fs/* added
- fixed misannotation from the original sweep caught by bitwise checks:
XFS used __nocast both for gfp_t and for flags used by XFS allocator.
The latter left with unsigned int __nocast; we might want to add a
different type for those but for now let's leave them alone. That,
BTW, is a case when __nocast use had been actively confusing - it had
been used in the same code for two different and similar types, with
no way to catch misuses. Switch of gfp_t to bitwise had caught that
immediately...
One tricky bit is left alone to be dealt with later - mapping->flags is
a mix of gfp_t and error indications. Left alone for now.

This patch fixes up a few problems with jfs's reserved inodes.
1. There is no need for the jfs code setting the I_DIRTY bits in i_state.
I am ashamed that the code ever did this, and surprised it hasn't been
noticed until now.
2. Make sure special inodes are on an inode hash list. If the inodes are
unhashed, __mark_inode_dirty will fail to put the inode on the
superblock's dirty list, and the data will not be flushed under memory
pressure.
3. Force writing journal data to disk when metapage_writepage is unable to
write a metadata page due to pending journal I/O.

If /etc/mtab is a regular file all of the mount options (of a file system)
are written to /etc/mtab by the mount command. The quota tools look there
for the quota strings for their operation. If, however, /etc/mtab is a
symlink to /proc/mounts (a "good thing" in some environments) the tools
don't write anything - they assume the kernel will take care of things.
While the quota options are sent down to the kernel via the mount system
call and the file system codes handle them properly unfortunately there is
no code to echo the quota strings into /proc/mounts and the quota tools
fail in the symlink case.
The attached patchs modify the EXT[2|3] and JFS codes to add the necessary
hooks. The show_options function of each file system in these patches
currently deal with only those things that seemed related to quotas;
especially in the EXT3 case more can be done (later?).
Jan Kara also noted the difficulty in moving these changes above the FS
codes responding similarly to myself to Andrew's comment about possible
VFS migration. Issue summary:
- FS codes have to process the entire string of options anyway.
- Only FS codes that use quotas must have a show_options function (for
quotas to work properly) however quotas are only used in a small number
of FS.
- Since most of the quota using FS support other options these FS codes
should have the a show_options function to show those options - and the
quota echoing becomes virtually negligible.
Based on feedback I have modified my patches from the original:
JFS a missing patch has been restored to the posting
EXT[2|3] and JFS always use the show_options function
- Each FS has at least one FS specific option displayed
- QUOTA output is under a CONFIG_QUOTA ifdef
- a follow-on patch will add a multitude of options for each FS
EXT[2|3] and JFS "quota" is treated as "usrquota"
EXT3 journalled data check for journalled quota removed
EXT[2|3] mount when quota specified but not compiled in
- no changes from my original patch. I tested the patch and the codes
