currently the export_operation structure and helpers related to it are in
fs.h. fs.h is already far too large and there are very few places needing the
export bits, so split them off into a separate header.

KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the
trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating
buffer. This is nonsense and error-prone. Moreover, when the caller
forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack
because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero.
This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly.
* off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro
is fixed.
* Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together,
MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the
trailing '\0'. Fix it.

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

It is a bug to set a page dirty if it is not uptodate unless it has
buffers. If the page has buffers, then the page may be dirty (some buffers
dirty) but not uptodate (some buffers not uptodate). The exception to this
rule is if the set_page_dirty caller is racing with truncate or invalidate.
A buffer can not be set dirty if it is not uptodate.
If either of these situations occurs, it indicates there could be some data
loss problem. Some of these warnings could be a harmless one where the
page or buffer is set uptodate immediately after it is dirtied, however we
should fix those up, and enforce this ordering.
Bring the order of operations for truncate into line with those of
invalidate. This will prevent a page from being able to go !uptodate while
we're holding the tree_lock, which is probably a good thing anyway.

I can never remember what the function to register to receive VM pressure
is called. I have to trace down from __alloc_pages() to find it.
It's called "set_shrinker()", and it needs Your Help.
1) Don't hide struct shrinker. It contains no magic.
2) Don't allocate "struct shrinker". It's not helpful.
3) Call them "register_shrinker" and "unregister_shrinker".
4) Call the function "shrink" not "shrinker".
5) Reduce the 17 lines of waffly comments to 13, but document it properly.

When we are out of memory of a suitable size we enter reclaim. The current
reclaim algorithm targets pages in LRU order, which is great for fairness at
order-0 but highly unsuitable if you desire pages at higher orders. To get
pages of higher order we must shoot down a very high proportion of memory;
>95% in a lot of cases.
This patch set adds a lumpy reclaim algorithm to the allocator. It targets
groups of pages at the specified order anchored at the end of the active and
inactive lists. This encourages groups of pages at the requested orders to
move from active to inactive, and active to free lists. This behaviour is
only triggered out of direct reclaim when higher order pages have been
requested.
This patch set is particularly effective when utilised with an
anti-fragmentation scheme which groups pages of similar reclaimability
together.
This patch set is based on Peter Zijlstra's lumpy reclaim V2 patch which forms
the foundation. Credit to Mel Gorman for sanitity checking.
Mel said:
The patches have an application with hugepage pool resizing.
When lumpy-reclaim is used used with ZONE_MOVABLE, the hugepages pool can
be resized with greater reliability. Testing on a desktop machine with 2GB
of RAM showed that growing the hugepage pool with ZONE_MOVABLE on it's own
was very slow as the success rate was quite low. Without lumpy-reclaim,
each attempt to grow the pool by 100 pages would yield 1 or 2 hugepages.
With lumpy-reclaim, getting 40 to 70 hugepages on each attempt was typical.

be migrated
It is often known at allocation time whether a page may be migrated or not.
This patch adds a flag called __GFP_MOVABLE and a new mask called
GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE. Allocations using the __GFP_MOVABLE can be either migrated
using the page migration mechanism or reclaimed by syncing with backing
storage and discarding.
An API function very similar to alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() is added for
__GFP_MOVABLE allocations called alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable(). The
flags used by alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() are not changed because it would
change the semantics of an existing API. After this patch is applied there
are no in-kernel users of alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() so it probably should
be marked deprecated if this patch is merged.
Note that this patch includes a minor cleanup to the use of __GFP_ZERO in
shmem.c to keep all flag modifications to inode->mapping in the
shmem_dir_alloc() helper function. This clean-up suggestion is courtesy of
Hugh Dickens.
Additional credit goes to Christoph Lameter and Linus Torvalds for shaping the
concept. Credit to Hugh Dickens for catching issues with shmem swap vector
and ramfs allocations.

Teach LDM about a new field encountered with Windows Vista.
This fixes LDM for people using Vista who have disabled drive letter
assignment from one or more volumes. Doing this introduces a so far
unknown field in the LDM database in the VOL5 VBLK structure which
causes the LDM driver to fail to parse the VBLK structure and hence LDM
fails to parse the disk altogether. This patch teaches the driver about
this field.

problem and working with me on getting it fixed. It is now working for

We re-use the RESVSP/UNRESVSP ioctls from xfs which allow the user to
allocate and deallocate regions to a file without zeroing data or changing
i_size.
Though renamed, the structure passed in from user is identical to struct
xfs_flock64. The three fields that are actually used right now are l_whence,
l_start and l_len.
This should get ocfs2 immediate compatibility with userspace software using
the pre-existing xfs ioctls.

The partial cluster zeroing code used during truncate usually assumes that
the rightmost byte in the range to be zeroed lies on a cluster boundary.
This makes sense for truncate, but punching holes might require zeroing on
non-aligned rightmost boundaries.

Add code to the btree paths to support the removal of arbitrary regions

This can now be trivially supported with re-use of our existing extend code.

and iterates over the inode, adding extents (marked as unwritten) until len
is reached. Existing extents are skipped over.

Update the write code to detect when the user is asking to write to an

Deallocation of suballocator blocks, most notably extent blocks, might

The locking for this can get extremely complicated, especially when the
suballocator inodes to delete from aren't known until deep within an

ocfs2 mounts require a heartbeat region. Use the new configfs_depend_item()
facility to actually depend on them so they can't go away from under us.
First, teach cluster/nodemanager.c to depend an item on the o2cb subsystem.
Then teach o2hb_register_callbacks to take a UUID and depend on the
appropriate region. Finally, teach all users of o2hb to pass a UUID or
NULL if they don't require a pin.

Sometimes other drivers depend on particular configfs items. For
example, ocfs2 mounts depend on a heartbeat region item. If that
region item is removed with rmdir(2), the ocfs2 mount must BUG or go
readonly. Not happy.
This provides two additional API calls: configfs_depend_item() and
configfs_undepend_item(). A client driver can call
configfs_depend_item() on an existing item to tell configfs that it is
depended on. configfs will then return -EBUSY from rmdir(2) for that
item. When the item is no longer depended on, the client driver calls
configfs_undepend_item() on it.
These API cannot be called underneath any configfs callbacks, as
they will conflict. They can block and allocate. A client driver
probably shouldn't calling them of its own gumption. Rather it should
be providing an API that external subsystems call.
How does this work? Imagine the ocfs2 mount process. When it mounts,
it asks for a heart region item. This is done via a call into the
heartbeat code. Inside the heartbeat code, the region item is looked
up. Here, the heartbeat code calls configfs_depend_item(). If it
succeeds, then heartbeat knows the region is safe to give to ocfs2.
If it fails, it was being torn down anyway, and heartbeat can gracefully
pass up an error.

Add a notification callback, ops->disconnect_notify(). It has the same
prototype as ->drop_item(), but it will be called just before the item
linkage is broken. This way, configfs users who want to do work while
the object is still in the heirarchy have a chance.
Client drivers will still need to config_item_put() in their
->drop_item(), if they implement it. They need do nothing in
->disconnect_notify(). They don't have to provide it if they don't
care. But someone who wants to be notified before ci_parent is set to
NULL can now be notified.

Seems copied from sysfs, but I don't see a reason here nor there to use
a semaphore instead of a mutex. Convert.

Convert the su_sem member of struct configfs_subsystem to a struct
mutex, as that's what it is. Also convert all the users and update
Documentation/configfs.txt and Documentation/configfs_example.c
accordingly.

Configfs being based upon sysfs code, config_group_find_obj() is probably
so named because of the similar kset_find_obj() in sysfs. However,
"kobject"s in sysfs become "config_item"s in configfs, so let's call it
config_group_find_item() instead, for sake of uniformity, and make
corresponding change in the users of this function.
BTW a crucial difference between kset_find_obj and config_group_find_item
is in locking expectations. kset_find_obj does its locking by itself, but
config_group_find_item expects the *caller* to do the locking. The reason
for this: kset's have their own locks, config_group's don't but instead
rely on the subsystem mutex. And, subsystem needn't necessarily be around
when config_group_find_item() is called.
So let's state these locking semantics explicitly, and rectify the comment,
otherwise bugs could continue to occur in future, as they did in the past
(refer commit d82b8191e238 in gfs2-2.6-fixes.git).

fs/dlm/config.c contains a useful generic macro called __CONFIGFS_ATTR
that is similar to sysfs' __ATTR macro that makes defining attributes
easy for any user of configfs. Separate it out into configfs.h so that
other users (forthcoming in dynamic netconsole patchset) can use it too.

1. item.c:config_item_cleanup() is a private function (only called by
config_item_release() in same file). However, it is spuriously
exported in include/linux/configfs.h, so remove that export and make
it static in item.c. Also, it is no longer exported / interface
function, so no need to give comment for this function (the comment
was stating obvious thing, anyway).
2. Kernel-doc comment format does not allow empty line between end of
comment and start of function (declaration line). There were several
such spurious empty lines in item.c, so fix them.

The attribute store/show code currently limits attributes at PAGE_SIZE.
This code comes from sysfs, where it still works that way.
However, PAGE_SIZE is not constant. A 16k attribute string works on
ia64 but not on x86. Really a subsystem shouldn't allow different
attribute sizes based on platform.
As such, limit all simple attributes to 4k. This works on all
platforms, and is consistent with all current code.

OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> reported that he's noticed
nfsd read corruption in recent kernels, and did the hard work of
discovering that it's due to splice updating the file position twice.
This means that the next operation would start further ahead than it
should.
nfsd_vfs_read()
splice_direct_to_actor()
while(len) {
do_splice_to() [update sd->pos]
-> generic_file_splice_read() [read from sd->pos]
nfsd_direct_splice_actor()
-> __splice_from_pipe() [update sd->pos]
There's nothing wrong with the core splice code, but the direct
splicing is an addon that calls both input and output paths.
So it has to take care in locally caching offset so it remains correct.

FAT12 entry is 12bits, so it needs 2 phase to update the value. And
writer and reader access it without any lock, so reader can get the
half updated value.
This fixes the long standing race condition by adding a global
spinlock to only FAT12 for avoiding any impact against FAT16/32.
