* cifs: remove unneeded NULL checks from cifs_show_optionsJeff Layton2009-06-131-71/+59
| | | | | | | | | | show_options is always called with the namespace_sem held. Therefore we don't need to worry about the vfsmount being NULL, or it vanishing while the function is running. By the same token, there's no need to worry about the superblock, tcon, smb or tcp sessions being NULL on entry.

| * configfs: Rework configfs_depend_item() locking and make lockdep happyLouis Rilling2009-04-301-59/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | configfs_depend_item() recursively locks all inodes mutex from configfs root to the target item, which makes lockdep unhappy. The purpose of this recursive locking is to ensure that the item tree can be safely parsed and that the target item, if found, is not about to leave. This patch reworks configfs_depend_item() locking using configfs_dirent_lock. Since configfs_dirent_lock protects all changes to the configfs_dirent tree, and protects tagging of items to be removed, this lock can be used instead of the inodes mutex lock chain. This needs that the check for dependents be done atomically with CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING tagging. Now lockdep looks happy with configfs.

| * configfs: Silence lockdep on mkdir() and rmdir()Louis Rilling2009-04-303-0/+131
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When attaching default groups (subdirs) of a new group (in mkdir() or in configfs_register()), configfs recursively takes inode's mutexes along the path from the parent of the new group to the default subdirs. This is needed to ensure that the VFS will not race with operations on these sub-dirs. This is safe for the following reasons: - the VFS allows one to lock first an inode and second one of its children (The lock subclasses for this pattern are respectively I_MUTEX_PARENT and I_MUTEX_CHILD); - from this rule any inode path can be recursively locked in descending order as long as it stays under a single mountpoint and does not follow symlinks. Unfortunately lockdep does not know (yet?) how to handle such recursion. I've tried to use Peter Zijlstra's lock_set_subclass() helper to upgrade i_mutexes from I_MUTEX_CHILD to I_MUTEX_PARENT when we know that we might recursively lock some of their descendant, but this usage does not seem to fit the purpose of lock_set_subclass() because it leads to several i_mutex locked with subclass I_MUTEX_PARENT by the same task. >From inside configfs it is not possible to serialize those recursive locking with a top-level one, because mkdir() and rmdir() are already called with inodes locked by the VFS. So using some mutex_lock_nest_lock() is not an option. I am proposing two solutions: 1) one that wraps recursive mutex_lock()s with lockdep_off()/lockdep_on(). 2) (as suggested earlier by Peter Zijlstra) one that puts the i_mutexes recursively locked in different classes based on their depth from the top-level config_group created. This induces an arbitrary limit (MAX_LOCK_DEPTH - 2 == 46) on the nesting of configfs default groups whenever lockdep is activated but this limit looks reasonably high. Unfortunately, this also isolates VFS operations on configfs default groups from the others and thus lowers the chances to detect locking issues. Nobody likes solution 1), which I can understand. This patch implements solution 2). However lockdep is still not happy with configfs_depend_item(). Next patch reworks the locking of configfs_depend_item() and finally makes lockdep happy. [ Note: This hides a few locking interactions with the VFS from lockdep. That was my big concern, because we like lockdep's protection. However, the current state always dumps a spurious warning. The locking is correct, so I tell people to ignore the warning and that we'll keep our eyes on the locking to make sure it stays correct. With this patch, we eliminate the warning. We do lose some of the lockdep protections, but this only means that we still have to keep our eyes on the locking. We're going to do that anyway. -- Joel ] Signed-off-by: Louis Rilling <louis.rilling@kerlabs.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lockdep found a problem with the lock order of the view lock and the ccw device lock. raw3270_activate_view/raw3270_deactivate_view first take the ccw device lock then call the activate/deactivate functions of the view which take view lock. The update functions of the con3270/tty3270 view will first take the view lock, then take the ccw device lock. To fix this the activate/deactivate functions are changed to avoid taking the view lock by moving the functions calls that modify the 3270 output buffer to the update function which is called by a timer.

The new generic headers are what most architectures use anyway nowadays, just implementing the minimal definitions.

| * | | asm-generic: add generic versions of common headersArnd Bergmann2009-06-1118-0/+558
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These are all kernel internal interfaces that get copied around a lot. In most cases, architectures can provide their own optimized versions, but these generic versions can work as well. I have tried to use the most common contents of each header to allow existing architectures to migrate easily. Thanks to Remis for suggesting a number of cleanups.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bitops.h apparently suffered from some level of bitrot, it was missing the smp_mb__{before,after}_clear_bit functions, and included other headers in an invalid order. This changes the file so that new architectures can use it out of the box. Signed-off-by: Remis Lima Baima <remis.developer@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some generic code is using the horribly misnamed PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS from asm/pci.h. This makes sure that an architecture without PCI support does not have to define this itself but can rely on the asm-generic version.

| * | | asm-generic: make get_rtc_time overridableArnd Bergmann2009-06-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Evidently, set_rtc_time is supposed to be overridable by architectures that define their own version, but unfortunately, get_rtc_ss would in that case still use the generic version. This makes get_rtc_ss call the real set_rtc_time to let architectures define their own version. The change should fix the "Extended RTC operation" on Alpha, which uses the incorrect get_rtc_ss call. It also allows PowerPC to use the asm-generic/rtc.h file in the future.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple (e.g. nommu) architectures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing asm-generic/atomic.h only defines the atomic_long type.

| * | | asm-generic: add a generic unistd.hArnd Bergmann2009-06-113-3/+944
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new architecture should only define a minimal set of system calls while still providing the full functionality. This version of unistd.h has gone through intensive review to make sure that by default it only enables syscalls that do not already have a more featureful replacement. It is modeled after the x86-64 version of unistd.h, which unifies the syscall number definition and the actual system call table in a single file, in order to keep them synchronized much more easily. This first version still keeps legacy system call definitions around, guarded by various #ifdefs, and with numbers larger than 1024. The idea behind this is to make it easier for new architectures to transition from a full list to the reduced set. In particular, the new microblaze architecture that should migrate to using the generic ABI headers can at least use an existing uClibc source tree without major rewrites during the conversion.

| * | | asm-generic: add generic ABI headersArnd Bergmann2009-06-1116-0/+1049
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These header files are typically copied from an existing architecture into any new one, slightly modified and then remain untouched until the end of time in the name of ABI stability. To make it easier for future architectures, provide a sane generic version here. In cases where multiple architectures already use identical code, I used the most common version. In cases like stat.h that are more or less broken everywhere, I provide a version that is meant to be ideal for new architectures.
