2008-07-14configfs: Fix failing mkdir() making racing rmdir() failLouis Rilling
When fixing the rename() vs rmdir() deadlock, we stopped locking default groups' inodes in configfs_detach_prep(), letting racing mkdir() in default groups proceed concurrently. This enables races like below happen, which leads to a failing mkdir() making rmdir() fail, despite the group to remove having no user-created directory under it in the end. process A: process B: /* PWD=A/B */ mkdir("C") make_item("C") attach_group("C") rmdir("A") detach_prep("A") detach_prep("B") error because of "C" return -ENOTEMPTY attach_group("C/D") error (eg -ENOMEM) return -ENOMEM This patch prevents such scenarii by making rmdir() wait as long as detach_prep() fails because a racing mkdir() is in the middle of attach_group(). To achieve this, mkdir() sets a flag CONFIGFS_USET_IN_MKDIR in parent's configfs_dirent before calling attach_group(), and clears the flag once attach_group() is done. detach_prep() fails with -EAGAIN whenever the flag is hit and returns the guilty inode's mutex so that rmdir() can wait on it.

2008-07-14configfs: Fix deadlock with racing rmdir() and rename()Louis Rilling
This patch fixes the deadlock between racing sys_rename() and configfs_rmdir(). The idea is to avoid locking i_mutexes of default groups in configfs_detach_prep(), and rely instead on the new configfs_dirent_lock to protect against configfs_dirent's linkage mutations. To ensure that an mkdir() racing with rmdir() will not create new items in a to-be-removed default group, we make configfs_new_dirent() check for the CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING flag right before linking the new dirent, and return error if the flag is set. This makes racing mkdir()/symlink()/dir_open() fail in places where errors could already happen, resp. in (attach_item()|attach_group())/create_link()/new_dirent(). configfs_depend() remains safe since it locks all the path from configfs root, and is thus mutually exclusive with rmdir(). An advantage of this is that now detach_groups() unconditionnaly takes the default groups i_mutex, which makes it more consistent with populate_groups().

2008-07-14configfs: Protect configfs_dirent s_links list mutationsLouis Rilling
Symlinks to a config_item are listed under its configfs_dirent s_links, but the list mutations are not protected by any common lock. This patch uses the configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to add the necessary protection. Note: we should also protect the list_empty() test in configfs_detach_prep() but 1/ the lock should not be released immediately because nothing would prevent the list from being filled after a successful list_empty() test, making the problem tricky, 2/ this will be solved by the rmdir() vs rename() deadlock bugfix.

2008-07-14configfs: Introduce configfs_dirent_lockLouis Rilling
This patch introduces configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to protect configfs_dirent traversals against linkage mutations (add/del/move). This will allow configfs_detach_prep() to avoid locking i_mutexes. Locking rules for configfs_dirent linkage mutations are the same plus the requirement of taking configfs_dirent_lock. For configfs_dirent walking, one can either take appropriate i_mutex as before, or take configfs_dirent_lock. The spinlock could actually be a mutex, but the critical sections are either O(1) or should not be too long (default groups walking in last patch). ChangeLog: - Clarify the comment on configfs_dirent_lock usage - Move sd->s_element init before linking the new dirent - In lseek(), do not release configfs_dirent_lock before the dirent is relinked.

2008-07-14ocfs2: Don't snprintf() without a format.Joel Becker
Some system files are per-slot. Their names include the slot number. ocfs2_sprintf_system_inode_name() uses the system inode definitions to fill in the slot number with snprintf(). For global system files, there is no node number, and the name was printed as a format with no arguments. -Wformat-nonliteral and -Wformat-security don't like this. Instead, use a static "%s" format and the name as the argument. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

2008-07-12cifs: fix inode leak in cifs_get_inode_info_unixJeff Layton
Try this: mount a share with unix extensions create a file on it umount the share You'll get the following message in the ring buffer: VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day... ...the problem is that cifs_get_inode_info_unix is creating and hashing a new inode even when it's going to return error anyway. The first lookup when creating a file returns an error so we end up leaking this inode before we do the actual create. This appears to be a regression caused by commit 0e4bbde94fdc33f5b3d793166b21bf768ca3e098. The following patch seems to fix it for me, and fixes a minor formatting nit as well.

2008-07-11Fix reference counting race on log buffersDave Chinner
When we release the iclog, we do an atomic_dec_and_lock to determine if we are the last reference and need to trigger update of log headers and writeout. However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to check if we have the last reference count there. If we do, we release the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count. But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will release the iclog. That leads to a filesystem hang. Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

2008-07-10exec: fix stack excutability without PT_GNU_STACKHugh Dickins
Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32) exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established: so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines. Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup. Checking through our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct: so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

2008-07-10ocfs2: Fix flags in ocfs2_file_lockMark Fasheh
The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now use the fs/dlm equivalents. Unfortunately, a merge error left the new flock code only partially updated. This took a while to show up though, because the lock level constants are actually identical between o2dlm and fs/dlm. The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>

invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte ranges. Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on page->index==0. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-06-24[GFS2] fix gfs2 block allocation (cleaned up)Benjamin Marzinski
This patch fixes bz 450641. This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for 509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located. It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2 (if it diverges from the first indirect block).

2008-06-23[patch 3/3] vfs: make d_path() consistent across mount operationsAndreas Gruenbacher
The path that __d_path() computes can become slightly inconsistent when it races with mount operations: it grabs the vfsmount_lock when traversing mount points but immediately drops it again, only to re-grab it when it reaches the next mount point. The result is that the filename computed is not always consisent, and the file may never have had that name. (This is unlikely, but still possible.) Fix this by grabbing the vfsmount_lock for the whole duration of __d_path().
