* aio: negative offset should return -EINVALRusty Russell2008-02-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | An AIO read or write should return -EINVAL if the offset is negative. This check matches the one in pread and pwrite. This was found by the libaio test suite.

* byteorder: move le32_add_cpu & friends from OCFS2 to coreMarcin Slusarz2008-02-085-78/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset moves le*_add_cpu and be*_add_cpu functions from OCFS2 to core header (1st), converts ext3 filesystem to this API (2nd) and replaces XFS different named functions with new ones (3rd). There are many places where these functions will be useful. Just look at: grep -r 'cpu_to_[ble12346]*([ble12346]*_to_cpu.*[-+]' linux-src/ Patch for ext3 is an example how conversions will probably look like. This patch: - move inline functions which add native byte order variable to little/big endian variable to core header * le16_add_cpu(__le16 *var, u16 val) * le32_add_cpu(__le32 *var, u32 val) * le64_add_cpu(__le64 *var, u64 val) * be32_add_cpu(__be32 *var, u32 val) - add for completeness: * be16_add_cpu(__be16 *var, u16 val) * be64_add_cpu(__be64 *var, u64 val) Signed-off-by: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@gmail.com> Acked-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com> Cc: David Chinner <dgc@sgi.com> Cc: Timothy Shimmin <tes@sgi.com> Cc: <linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* rewrite rdNick Piggin2008-02-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a rewrite of the ramdisk block device driver. The old one is really difficult because it effectively implements a block device which serves data out of its own buffer cache. It relies on the dirty bit being set, to pin its backing store in cache, however there are non trivial paths which can clear the dirty bit (eg. try_to_free_buffers()), which had recently lead to data corruption. And in general it is completely wrong for a block device driver to do this. The new one is more like a regular block device driver. It has no idea about vm/vfs stuff. It's backing store is similar to the buffer cache (a simple radix-tree of pages), but it doesn't know anything about page cache (the pages in the radix tree are not pagecache pages). There is one slight downside -- direct block device access and filesystem metadata access goes through an extra copy and gets stored in RAM twice. However, this downside is only slight, because the real buffercache of the device is now reclaimable (because we're not playing crazy games with it), so under memory intensive situations, footprint should effectively be the same -- maybe even a slight advantage to the new driver because it can also reclaim buffer heads. The fact that it now goes through all the regular vm/fs paths makes it much more useful for testing, too. text data bss dec hex filename 2837 849 384 4070 fe6 drivers/block/rd.o 3528 371 12 3911 f47 drivers/block/brd.o Text is larger, but data and bss are smaller, making total size smaller. A few other nice things about it: - Similar structure and layout to the new loop device handlinag. - Dynamic ramdisk creation. - Runtime flexible buffer head size (because it is no longer part of the ramdisk code). - Boot / load time flexible ramdisk size, which could easily be extended to a per-ramdisk runtime changeable size (eg. with an ioctl). - Can use highmem for the backing store.

* aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUTDavid Howells2008-02-084-11/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set. Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case. Not only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either. To make this work, this patch also does the following: (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT. (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT core dumping code. (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline. This is then included only where needed. This means that this bit of arch code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than the core kernel. (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not needed) and FRV. This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT format is available.

* Pidns: make full use of xxx_vnr() callsPavel Emelyanov2008-02-082-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some time ago the xxx_vnr() calls (e.g. pid_vnr or find_task_by_vpid) were _all_ converted to operate on the current pid namespace. After this each call like xxx_nr_ns(foo, current->nsproxy->pid_ns) is nothing but a xxx_vnr(foo) one. Switch all the xxx_nr_ns() callers to use the xxx_vnr() calls where appropriate.

* proc: fix ->open'less usage due to ->proc_fops flipAlexey Dobriyan2008-02-083-10/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Typical PDE creation code looks like: pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL); if (pde) pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops; Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to final value. This is a problem because right after creation a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below). The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like: pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops); if (!pde) return -ENOMEM; Fix most networking users for a start. In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go.

* proc: fix the threaded /proc/selfEric W. Biederman2008-02-081-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Long ago when the CLONE_THREAD support first went it someone thought it would be wise to point /proc/self at /proc/<tgid> instead of /proc/<pid>. Given that /proc/<tgid> can return information about a very different task (if enough things have been unshared) then our current process /proc/<tgid> seems blatantly wrong. So far I have yet to think up an example where the current behavior would be advantageous, and I can see several places where it is seriously non-intuitive. We may be stuck with the current broken behavior for backwards compatibility reasons but lets try fixing our ancient bug for the 2.6.25 time frame and see if anyone screams. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* proc: rewrite do_task_stat to correctly handle pid namespaces.Eric W. Biederman2008-02-083-17/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently (as pointed out by Oleg) do_task_stat has a race when calling task_pid_nr_ns with the task exiting. In addition do_task_stat is not currently displaying information in the context of the pid namespace that mounted the /proc filesystem. So "cut -d' ' -f 1 /proc/<pid>/stat" may not equal <pid>. This patch fixes the problem by converting to a single_open seq_file show method. Getting the pid namespace from the filesystem superblock instead of current, and simply using the the struct pid from the inode instead of attempting to get that same pid from the task.

| * | [XFS] Move AIL pushing into it's own threadDavid Chinner2008-02-077-108/+282
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When many hundreds to thousands of threads all try to do simultaneous transactions and the log is in a tail-pushing situation (i.e. full), we can get multiple threads walking the AIL list and contending on the AIL lock. The AIL push is, in effect, a simple I/O dispatch algorithm complicated by the ordering constraints placed on it by the transaction subsystem. It really does not need multiple threads to push on it - even when only a single CPU is pushing the AIL, it can push the I/O out far faster that pretty much any disk subsystem can handle. So, to avoid contention problems stemming from multiple list walkers, move the list walk off into another thread and simply provide a "target" to push to. When a thread requires a push, it sets the target and wakes the push thread, then goes to sleep waiting for the required amount of space to become available in the log. This mechanism should also be a lot fairer under heavy load as the waiters will queue in arrival order, rather than queuing in "who completed a push first" order. Also, by moving the pushing to a separate thread we can do more effectively overload detection and prevention as we can keep context from loop iteration to loop iteration. That is, we can push only part of the list each loop and not have to loop back to the start of the list every time we run. This should also help by reducing the number of items we try to lock and/or push items that we cannot move. Note that this patch is not intended to solve the inefficiencies in the AIL structure and the associated issues with extremely large list contents. That needs to be addresses separately; parallel access would cause problems to any new structure as well, so I'm only aiming to isolate the structure from unbounded parallelism here.
