2006-09-27[PATCH] de_thread: Use tsk not currentEric W. Biederman

2006-09-27[PATCH] pid: Implement transfer_pid and use it to simplify de_threadEric W. Biederman
In de_thread we move pids from one process to another, a rather ugly case. The function transfer_pid makes it clear what we are doing, and makes the action atomic. This is useful we ever want to atomically traverse the process group and session lists, in a rcu safe manner. Even if the atomic properties this change should be a win as transfer_pid should be less code to execute than executing both attach_pid and detach_pid, and this should make de_thread slightly smaller as only a single function call needs to be emitted. The only downside is that the code might be slower to execute as the odds are against transfer_pid being in cache. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-09-27[PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structureTheodore Ts'o
This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function. Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect) values for i_blksize.

2006-09-27[PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_privateTheodore Ts'o
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat in the VFS inode structure). This patch: The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union, which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where the union will actually be used.

2006-09-27[PATCH] autofs4 needs to force fail return revalidateIan Kent
For a long time now I have had a problem with not being able to return a lookup failure on an existsing directory. In autofs this corresponds to a mount failure on a autofs managed mount entry that is browsable (and so the mount point directory exists). While this problem has been present for a long time I've avoided resolving it because it was not very visible. But now that autofs v5 has "mount and expire on demand" of nested multiple mounts, such as is found when mounting an export list from a server, solving the problem cannot be avoided any longer. I've tried very hard to find a way to do this entirely within the autofs4 module but have not been able to find a satisfactory way to achieve it. So, I need to propose a change to the VFS.

2006-09-27[PATCH] ext3: wrong error behaviorVasily Averin
SWsoft Virtuozzo/OpenVZ Linux kernel team has discovered that ext3 error behavior was broken in linux kernels since 2.5.x versions by the following patch: 2002/10/31 02:15:26-05:00 tytso@snap.thunk.org Default mount options from superblock for ext2/3 filesystems http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/gnupatch@3dc0d88eKbV9ivV4ptRNM8fBuA3JBQ In case ext3 file system is mounted with errors=continue (EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE) errors should be ignored when possible. However at present in case of any error kernel aborts journal and remounts filesystem to read-only. Such behavior was hit number of times and noted to differ from that of 2.4.x kernels. This patch fixes this: - do nothing in case of EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE, - set EXT3_MOUNT_ABORT and call journal_abort() in all other cases - panic() should be called after ext3_commit_super() to save sb marked as EXT3_ERROR_FS Signed-off-by: Vasily Averin <vvs@sw.ru> Acked-by: Kirill Korotaev <dev@sw.ru> Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: "Stephen C.

2006-09-27[PATCH] JBD: 16T fixesEric Sandeen
These are a few places I've found in jbd that look like they may not be 16T-safe, or consistent with the use of unsigned longs for block containers. Problems here would be somewhat hard to hit, would require journal blocks past the 8T boundary, which would not be terribly common. Still, should fix. (some of these have come from the ext4 work on jbd as well). I think there's one more possibility that the wrap() function may not be safe IF your last block in the journal butts right up against the 232 block boundary, but that seems like a VERY remote possibility, and I'm not worrying about it at this point.
