2006-05-15[PATCH] v9fs: signal handling fixesLatchesar Ionkov4-100/+158
Multiple races can happen when v9fs is interrupted by a signal and Tflush message is sent to the server. After v9fs sends Tflush it doesn't wait until it receives Rflush, and possibly the response of the original message. This behavior may confuse v9fs what fids are allocated by the file server. This patch fixes the races and the fid allocation.

2006-05-15[PATCH] smbfs: Fix slab corruption in samba error pathJan Niehusmann1-1/+3
Yesterday, I got the following error with 2.6.16.13 during a file copy from a smb filesystem over a wireless link. I guess there was some error on the wireless link, which in turn caused an error condition for the smb filesystem. In the log, smb_file_read reports error=4294966784 (0xfffffe00), which also shows up in the slab dumps, and also is -ERESTARTSYS. Error code 27499 corresponds to 0x6b6b, so the rq_errno field seems to be the only one being set after freeing the slab. In smb_add_request (which is the only place in smbfs where I found ERESTARTSYS), I found the following: if (!timeleft || signal_pending(current)) { /* * On timeout or on interrupt we want to try and remove the * request from the recvq/xmitq. */ smb_lock_server(server); if (!(req->rq_flags & SMB_REQ_RECEIVED)) { list_del_init(&req->rq_queue); smb_rput(req); } smb_unlock_server(server); } [...] if (signal_pending(current)) req->rq_errno = -ERESTARTSYS; I guess that some codepath like smbiod_flush() caused the request to be removed from the queue, and smb_rput(req) be called, without SMB_REQ_RECEIVED being set. This violates an asumption made by the quoted code. Then, the above code calls smb_rput(req) again, the req gets freed, and req->rq_errno = -ERESTARTSYS writes into the already freed slab. As list_del_init doesn't cause an error if called multiple times, that does cause the observed behaviour (freed slab with rq_errno=-ERESTARTSYS). If this observation is correct, the following patch should fix it. I wonder why the smb code uses list_del_init everywhere - using list_del instead would catch such situations by poisoning the next and prev pointers.

2006-05-15[PATCH] autofs4: NFY_NONE wait race fixIan Kent3-34/+58
This patch fixes two problems. First, the comparison of entries in the waitq.c was incorrect. Second, the NFY_NONE check was incorrect. The test of whether the dentry is mounted if ineffective, for example, if an expire fails then we could wait forever on a non existant expire. The bug was identified by Jeff Moyer. The patch changes autofs4 to wait on expires only as this is all that's needed. If there is no existing wait when autofs4_wait is call with a type of NFY_NONE it delays until either a wait appears or the the expire flag is cleared.

2006-05-12Alternative fix for MMC oops on unmount after removalLinus Torvalds1-1/+2
Make sure to clear the driverfs_dev pointer when we do del_gendisk() (on disk removal), so that other users that may still have a ref to the disk won't try to use the stale pointer. Also move the KOBJ_REMOVE uevent handler up, so that the uevent still has access to the driverfs_dev data. This all should hopefully fix the problems with MMC umounts after device removals that caused commit 56cf6504fc1c0c221b82cebc16a444b684140fb7 and its reversal (1a2acc9e9214699a99389e323e6686e9e0e2ca67).

2006-05-01[PATCH] pipe: enable atomic copying of pipe data to/from user spaceJens Axboe2-25/+120
The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which is both slow and has known scalability issues on SMP. This patch enables atomic copying of pipe pages, by pre-faulting data and using kmap_atomic() instead. lmbench bw_pipe and lat_pipe measurements agree this is a Good Thing. Here are results from that on a UP machine with highmem (1.5GiB of RAM), running first a UP kernel, SMP kernel, and SMP kernel patched.

2006-05-01[PATCH] pipe: introduce ->pin() buffer operationJens Axboe2-77/+53
The ->map() function is really expensive on highmem machines right now, since it has to use the slower kmap() instead of kmap_atomic(). Splice rarely needs to access the virtual address of a page, so it's a waste of time doing it. Introduce ->pin() to take over the responsibility of making sure the page data is valid. ->map() is then reduced to just kmap(). That way we can also share a most of the pipe buffer ops between pipe.c and splice.c Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-05-01[PATCH] splice: fix bugs in pipe_to_file()Jens Axboe2-21/+19
Found by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>, fixed by me. - Only allow full pages to go to the page cache. - Check page != buf->page instead of using PIPE_BUF_FLAG_STOLEN. - Remember to clear 'stolen' if add_to_page_cache() fails. And as a cleanup on that: - Make the bottom fall-through logic a little less convoluted. Also make the steal path hold an extra reference to the page, so we don't have to differentiate between stolen and non-stolen at the end. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-30[PATCH] splice: fix bugs with stealing regular pipe pagesJens Axboe2-3/+12
- Check that page has suitable count for stealing in the regular pipes. - pipe_to_file() assumes that the page is locked on succesful steal, so do that in the pipe steal hook - Missing unlock_page() in add_to_page_cache() failure. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-04-27[PATCH] splice: make the read-side do batched page lookupsJens Axboe1-30/+65
Use the new find_get_pages_contig() to potentially look up the entire splice range in one single call. This speeds up generic_file_splice_read() quite a bit. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-04-26[PATCH] LSM: add missing hook to do_compat_readv_writev()James Morris1-0/+4
This patch addresses a flaw in LSM, where there is no mediation of readv() and writev() in for 32-bit compatible apps using a 64-bit kernel. This bug was discovered and fixed initially in the native readv/writev code [1], but was not fixed in the compat code. Thanks to Al for spotting this one.

2006-04-26[PATCH] forgotten ->b_data in memcpy() call in ext3/resize.c (oopsable)Al Viro1-1/+1
sbi->s_group_desc is an array of pointers to buffer_head. memcpy() of buffer size from address of buffer_head is a bad idea - it will generate junk in any case, may oops if buffer_head is close to the end of slab page and next page is not mapped and isn't what was intended there. IOW, ->b_data is missing in that call. Fortunately, result doesn't go into the primary on-disk data structures, so only backup ones get crap written to them; that had allowed this bug to remain unnoticed until now.

2006-04-26[PATCH] splice: rearrange moving to/from pipe helpersJens Axboe1-24/+11
We need these for people writing their own ->splice_read/write hooks. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-26[PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscallJens Axboe1-39/+253
sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice() moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead. This uses an approach suggested by Linus, where we can hold partial ranges inside the pages[] map. Hopefully this will be useful for network receive support as well.

2006-04-26[fuse] fix race between checking and setting file->private_dataMiklos Szeredi1-5/+8

2006-04-26[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end(), try #2Miklos Szeredi1-2/+11
A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was held due to a background request containing a file reference. Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would release the superblock. Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock results. The solution is to move the fput() outside the region protected by sbput_sem.

2006-04-26Revert "[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()"Miklos Szeredi3-36/+31
This reverts 73ce8355c243a434524a34c05cc417dd0467996e commit. It was wrong, because it didn't take into account the requirement, that iput() for background requests must be performed synchronously with ->put_super(), otherwise active inodes may remain after unmount. The right solution is to keep the sbput_sem and perform iput() within the locked region, but move fput() outside sbput_sem. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
2006-04-26[PATCH] splice: fix offset problemsJens Axboe1-19/+27
