2009-05-19cifs: fix pointer initialization and checks in cifs_follow_symlink (try #4)Jeff Layton
This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted. It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's kfree'd. This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability. It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of which I'm not convinced). On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.

2009-05-18nfs: Fix NFS v4 client handling of MAY_EXEC in nfs_permission.Frank Filz
The problem is that permission checking is skipped if atomic open is possible, but when exec opens a file, it just opens it O_READONLY which means EXEC permission will not be checked at that time. This problem is observed by the following sequence (executed as root): mount -t nfs4 server:/ /mnt4 echo "ls" >/mnt4/foo chmod 744 /mnt4/foo su guest -c "mnt4/foo" Signed-off-by: Frank Filz <ffilzlnx@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Tested-by: Eugene Teo <eugeneteo@kernel.sg> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-05-15devpts: correctly set default optionsSukadev Bhattiprolu
devpts_get_sb() calls memset(0) to clear mount options and calls parse_mount_options() if user specified any mount options. The memset(0) is bogus since the 'mode' and 'ptmxmode' options are non-zero by default. parse_mount_options() restores options to default anyway and can properly deal with NULL mount options. So in devpts_get_sb() remove memset(0) and call parse_mount_options() even for NULL mount options. Bug reported by Eric Paris: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/5/7/448.

2009-05-15ext4: Fix race in ext4_inode_info.i_cached_extentTheodore Ts'o
If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same time, there is nothing protecting the i_cached_extent structure from being used and updated at the same time. This could potentially cause the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors and/or inode table. This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of ext4's development. Fortunately once the data is stored in the page cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root cause was *extremely* difficult. Many thanks to Kevin Shanahan for working over several months to be able to reproduce this easily so we could finally nail down the cause of the corruption.

2009-05-14ext4: Clear the unwritten buffer_head flag after the extent is initializedAneesh Kumar K.V
The BH_Unwritten flag indicates that the buffer is allocated on disk but has not been written; that is, the disk was part of a persistent preallocation area. That flag should only be set when a get_blocks() function is looking up a inode's logical to physical block mapping. When ext4_get_blocks_wrap() is called with create=1, the uninitialized extent is converted into an initialized one, so the BH_Unwritten flag is no longer appropriate. Hence, we need to make sure the BH_Unwritten is not left set, since the combination of BH_Mapped and BH_Unwritten is not allowed; among other things, it will result ext4's get_block() to be called over and over again during the write_begin phase of write(2).

2009-05-14Btrfs: Don't loop forever on metadata IO failuresChris Mason
When a btrfs metadata read fails, the first thing we try to do is find a good copy on another mirror of the block. If this fails, read_tree_block() ends up returning a buffer that isn't up to date. The btrfs btree reading code was reworked to drop locks and repeat the search when IO was done, but the changes didn't add a check for failed reads. The end result was looping forever on buffers that were never going to become up to date. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2009-05-13Remove implementation of readpage from the hugetlbfs_aopsMel Gorman
The core VM assumes the page size used by the address_space in inode->i_mapping is PAGE_SIZE but hugetlbfs breaks this assumption by inserting pages into the page cache at offsets the core VM considers unexpected. This would not be a problem except that hugetlbfs also provide a ->readpage implementation. As it exists, the core VM can assume the base page size is being used, allocate pages on behalf of the filesystem, insert them into the page cache and call ->readpage to populate them. These pages are the wrong size and at the wrong offset for hugetlbfs causing confusion. This patch deletes the ->readpage implementation for hugetlbfs on the grounds the core VM should not be allocating and populating pages on behalf of hugetlbfs. There should be no existing users of the ->readpage implementation so it should not cause a regression.

2009-05-12nilfs2: check size of array structured data exchanged via ioctlsRyusuke Konishi
Although some ioctls of nilfs2 exchange data in the form of indirectly referenced array, some of them lack size check on the array elements. This inserts the missing checks and rejects requests if data of ioctl does not have a valid format. We usually don't have to check size of structures that we associated with ioctl commands because the size is tested implicitly for identifying ioctl command; the checks this patch adds are for the cases where the implicit check is not applied.

2009-05-10nilfs2: ensure to clear dirty state when deleting metadata file blockRyusuke Konishi
This would fix the following failure during GC: nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints: cannot delete block NILFS: GC failed during preparation: cannot delete checkpoints: err=-2 The problem was caused by a break in state consistency between page cache and btree; the above block was removed from the btree but the page buffering the block was remaining in the page cache in dirty state. This resolves the inconsistency by ensuring to clear dirty state of the page buffering the deleted block.

2009-05-09Fix races around the access to ->s_optionsAl Viro
Put generic_show_options read access to s_options under rcu_read_lock, split save_mount_options() into "we are setting it the first time" (uses in foo_fill_super()) and "we are relacing and freeing the old one", synchronize_rcu() before kfree() in the latter.

2009-05-09New helper: deactivate_locked_super()Al Viro
Does equivalent of up_write(&s->s_umount); deactivate_super(s); However, it does not does not unlock it until it's all over. As the result, it's safe to use to dispose of new superblock on ->get_sb() failure exits - nobody will see the sucker until it's all over. Equivalent using up_write/deactivate_super is safe for that purpose if superblock is either safe to use or has NULL ->s_root when we unlock. Normally filesystems take the required precautions, but a) we do have bugs in that area in some of them. b) up_write/deactivate_super sequence is extremely common, so the helper makes sense anyway.
