2006-04-28[DLM] PATCH 1/3 dlm: force free user lockspaceDavid Teigland
Lockspaces created from user space should be forcibly freed without requiring any further user space interaction. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-04-28[GFS2] Reordering in deallocation to avoid recursive lockingSteven Whitehouse
Despite my earlier careful search, there was a recursive lock left in the deallocation code. This removes it. It also should speed up deallocation be reducing the number of locking operations which take place by using two "try lock" operations on the two locks involved in inode deallocation which allows us to grab the locks out of order (compared with NFS which grabs the inode lock first and the iopen lock later). It is ok for us to fail while doing this since if it does fail it means that someone else is still using the inode and thus it wouldn't be possible to deallocate anyway. This fixes the bug reported to me by Rob Kenna. Cc: Rob Kenna <rkenna@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2006-04-26[DLM] lock_dlm recover_status patchDavid Teigland
This saves the journal recovery result and makes it visible through sysfs. User space needs to know if the node actually recovered the journal or tried and gave up. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-04-26[GFS2] Remove GL_NEVER_RECURSE flagSteven Whitehouse
There is no point in keeping this flag since recursion is not now allowed for any glock. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-04-26[GFS2] Don't do recursive locking in glock layerSteven Whitehouse
This patch changes the last user of recursive locking so that it no longer needs this feature and removes it from the glock layer. This makes the glock code a lot simpler and easier to understand. Its also a prerequsite to adding support for the AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE return code (or at least it is if you don't want your brain to melt in the process) I've left in a couple of checks just in case there is some place else in the code which is still using this feature that I didn't spot yet, but they can probably be removed long term.

2006-04-26[PATCH] Remove __devinit and __cpuinit from notifier_call definitionsChandra Seetharaman
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition of notifier_call. It is incorrect as the function definition should be available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during initializations). This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_call __init section. Signed-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-04-26[PATCH] Remove __devinitdata from notifier block definitionsChandra Seetharaman
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __devinitdata in the definition of notifier_block data structure. It is incorrect as the data structure should be available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during initializations). This was leading to an oops when notifier_chain_register() call is invoked for those callback chains after initialization. This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_block data structure in the init data section.

2006-04-26[PATCH] LSM: add missing hook to do_compat_readv_writev()James Morris
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] fix mips sys32_p{read,write}Al Viro
Switched to use of sys_pread64()/sys_pwrite64() rather than keep duplicating their guts; among the little things that had been missing there were such as ret = security_file_permission (file, MAY_READ); Gotta love the LSM robustness, right?

2006-04-26[PATCH] forgotten ->b_data in memcpy() call in ext3/resize.c (oopsable)Al Viro
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] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscallJens Axboe
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 Szeredi

2006-04-26[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end(), try #2Miklos Szeredi
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. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
2006-04-26Revert "[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()"Miklos Szeredi
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 Axboe

Patch from Richard Purdie The AAPCS says that enums can be variably sized depending on the range of valid values.
