2009-04-01mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match faultNick Piggin
Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return VM_FAULT_xxx flags. There should be no functional change. This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to the VM (and also can provide more information eg. virtual_address to the driver, which might be important in some special cases). This is required for a subsequent fix. And will also make it easier to merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

2009-03-31proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::ownerAlexey Dobriyan
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
2009-03-28NFS: Simplify logic to compare socket addresses in client.cChuck Lever
Callback requests from IPv4 servers are now always guaranteed to be AF_INET, and never mapped IPv4 AF_INET6 addresses. Both nfs_match_client() and nfs_find_client() can now share the same address comparison logic, so fold them together. We can also dispense with of most of the conditional compilation in here.

2009-03-28NFS: Start PF_INET6 callback listener only if IPv6 support is availableChuck Lever
Apparently a lot of people need to disable IPv6 completely on their distributor-built systems, which have CONFIG_IPV6_MODULE enabled at build time. They do this by blacklisting the ipv6.ko module. This causes the creation of the NFSv4 callback service listener to fail if CONFIG_IPV6_MODULE is set, but the module cannot be loaded. Now that the kernel's PF_INET6 RPC listeners are completely separate from PF_INET listeners, we can always start PF_INET. Then the NFS client can try to start a PF_INET6 listener, but it isn't required to be available.

2009-03-28NFS: Revert creation of IPv6 listeners for lockd and NFSv4 callbacksChuck Lever
We're about to convert over to using separate PF_INET and PF_INET6 listeners, instead of a single PF_INET6 listener that also receives AF_INET requests and maps them to AF_INET6. Clear the way by removing the logic in lockd and the NFSv4 callback server that creates an AF_INET6 service listener.

2009-03-11NFS: Throttle page dirtying while we're flushing to diskTrond Myklebust
The following patch is a combination of a patch by myself and Peter Staubach. Trond: If we allow other processes to dirty pages while a process is doing a consistency sync to disk, we can end up never making progress. Peter: Attached is a patch which addresses a continuing problem with the NFS client generating out of order WRITE requests. While this is compliant with all of the current protocol specifications, there are servers in the market which can not handle out of order WRITE requests very well. Also, this may lead to sub-optimal block allocations in the underlying file system on the server. This may cause the read throughputs to be reduced when reading the file from the server. Peter: There has been a lot of work recently done to address out of order issues on a systemic level. However, the NFS client is still susceptible to the problem. Out of order WRITE requests can occur when pdflush is in the middle of writing out pages while the process dirtying the pages calls generic_file_buffered_write which calls generic_perform_write which calls balance_dirty_pages_rate_limited which ends up calling writeback_inodes which ends up calling back into the NFS client to writes out dirty pages for the same file that pdflush happens to be working with.

2009-03-11NFS: flush cached directory information slightly more readily.NeilBrown
If cached directory contents becomes incorrect, there is no way to flush the contents. This contrasts with files where file locking is the recommended way to ensure cache consistency between multiple applications (a read-lock always flushes the cache). Also while changes to files often change the size of the file (thus triggering a cache flush), changes to directories often do not change the apparent size (as the size is often rounded to a block size). So it is particularly important with directories to avoid the possibility of an incorrect cache wherever possible. When the link count on a directory changes it implies a change in the number of child directories, and so a change in the contents of this directory. So use that as a trigger to flush cached contents. When the ctime changes but the mtime does not, there are two possible reasons. 1/ The owner/mode information has been changed. 2/ utimes has been used to set the mtime backwards. In the first case, a data-cache flush is not required. In the second case it is. So on the basis that correctness trumps performance, flush the directory contents cache in this case also.

Addresses: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11061 sockaddr structures can't be reliably compared using memcmp() because there are padding bytes in the structure which can't be guaranteed to be the same even when the sockaddr structures refer to the same socket. Instead compare all the relevant fields. In the case of IPv6 sin6_flowinfo is not compared because it only affects QoS and sin6_scope_id is only compared if the address is "link local" because "link local" addresses need only be unique to a specific link.

2009-03-10NFS: Handle -ESTALE error in access()Suresh Jayaraman
Hi Trond, I have been looking at a bugreport where trying to open applications on KDE on a NFS mounted home fails temporarily. There have been multiple reports on different kernel versions pointing to this common issue: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12557 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/269954 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508866.html This issue can be reproducible consistently by doing this on a NFS mounted home (KDE): 1. Open 2 xterm sessions 2. From one of the xterm session, do "ssh -X <remote host>" 3. "stat ~/.Xauthority" on the remote SSH session 4. Close the two xterm sessions 5. On the server do a "stat ~/.Xauthority" 6. Now on the client, try to open xterm This will fail. Even if the filehandle had become stale, the NFS client should invalidate the cache/inode and should repeat LOOKUP. Looking at the packet capture when the failure occurs shows that there were two subsequent ACCESS() calls with the same filehandle and both fails with -ESTALE error. I have tested the fix below. Now the client issue a LOOKUP after the ACCESS() call fails with -ESTALE. If all this makes sense to you, can you consider this for inclusion? Thanks, If the server returns an -ESTALE error due to stale filehandle in response to an ACCESS() call, we need to invalidate the cache and inode so that LOOKUP() can be retried. Without this change, the nfs client retries ACCESS() with the same filehandle, fails again and could lead to temporary failure of applications running on nfs mounted home.

2009-01-04fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fixNick Piggin
With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could cause filesystem deadlocks. The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS anyway, so turn that into a single flag. Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there, change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive and does away with random leading underscores). This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a random example).

2008-12-23optimize attribute timeouts for "noac" and "actimeo=0"Peter Staubach
Hi. I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0" mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out. (With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always appear to be timed out.) In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The cache should be considered valid only in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally expected. This problem was previously addressed by special casing the attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off- by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one error and thus, not require the special case.
