2009-03-26ext3: Avoid starting a transaction in writepage when not necessaryJan Kara
We don't have to start a transaction in writepage() when all the blocks are a properly allocated. Even in ordered mode either the data has been written via write() and they are thus already added to transaction's list or the data was written via mmap and then it's random in which transaction they get written anyway. This should help VM to pageout dirty memory without blocking on transaction commits. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The dasd device driver will now support ECKD devices with more then 65520 cylinders. In the traditional ECKD adressing scheme each track is addressed by a 16-bit cylinder and 16-bit head number. The new addressing scheme makes use of the fact that the actual number of heads is never larger then 15, so 12 bits of the head number can be redefined to be part of the cylinder address.

2009-03-24sysfs: fix some bin_vm_ops errorsHugh Dickins
Commit 86c9508eb1c0ce5aa07b5cf1d36b60c54efc3d7a "sysfs: don't block indefinitely for unmapped files" in linux-next crashes the PowerMac G5 when X starts up. It's caught out by the way powerpc's pci_mmap of legacy_mem uses shmem_zero_setup(), substituting a new vma->vm_file whose private_data no longer points to the bin_buffer (substitution done because some versions of X crash if that mmap fails). The fix to this is straightforward: the original vm_file is fput() in that case, so this mmap won't block sysfs at all, so just don't switch over to bin_vm_ops if vm_file has changed. But more fixes made before realizing that was the problem:- It should not be an error if bin_page_mkwrite() finds no underlying page_mkwrite(). Check that a file already mmap'ed has the same underlying vm_ops _before_ pointing vma->vm_ops at bin_vm_ops. If the file being mmap'ed is a shmem/tmpfs file, don't fail the mmap on CONFIG_NUMA=y, just because that has a set_policy and get_policy: provide bin_set_policy, bin_get_policy and bin_migrate.

2009-03-24sysfs: only allow one scheduled removal callback per kobjAlex Chiang
The only way for a sysfs attribute to remove itself (without deadlock) is to use the sysfs_schedule_callback() interface. Vegard Nossum discovered that a poorly written sysfs ->store callback can repeatedly schedule remove callbacks on the same device over and over, e.g. $ while true ; do echo 1 > /sys/devices/.../remove ; done If the 'remove' attribute uses the sysfs_schedule_callback API and also does not protect itself from concurrent accesses, its callback handler will be called multiple times, and will eventually attempt to perform operations on a freed kobject, leading to many problems. Instead of requiring all callers of sysfs_schedule_callback to implement their own synchronization, provide the protection in the infrastructure. Now, sysfs_schedule_callback will only allow one scheduled callback per kobject. On subsequent calls with the same kobject, return -EAGAIN. This is a short term fix. The long term fix is to allow sysfs attributes to remove themselves directly, without any of this callback hokey pokey.

2009-03-24Driver core: implement uevent suppress in kobjectMing Lei
This patch implements uevent suppress in kobject and removes it from struct device, based on the following ideas: 1,Uevent sending should be one attribute of kobject, so suppressing it in kobject layer is more natural than in device layer. By this way, we can do it for other objects embedded with kobject. 2,It may save several bytes for each instance of struct device.(On my omap3(32bit ARM) based box, can save 8bytes per device object) This patch also introduces dev_set|get_uevent_suppress() helpers to set and query uevent_suppress attribute in case to help kobject as private part of struct device in future.

2009-03-24sysfs: don't block indefinitely for unmapped files.Eric W. Biederman
Modify sysfs bin files so that we can remove the bin file while they are still mapped. When the kobject is removed we unmap the bin file and arrange for future accesses to the mapping to receive SIGBUS. Implementing this prevents a nasty DOS when pci devices are hot plugged and unplugged. Where if any of their resources were mmaped the kernel could not free up their pci resources or release their pci data structures.

2009-03-24sysfs: sysfs_add_one WARNs with full path to duplicate filenameAlex Chiang
sysfs: sysfs_add_one WARNs with full path to duplicate filename As a debugging aid, it can be useful to know the full path to a duplicate file being created in sysfs. We now will display warnings such as: sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/foo' when attempting to create multiple files named 'foo' in the sysfs root, or: sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/bus/pci/slots/5/foo' when attempting to create multiple files named 'foo' under a given directory in sysfs. The path displayed is always a relative path to sysfs_root. The leading '/' in the path name refers to the sysfs_root mount point, and should not be confused with the "real" '/'.
