c04030e16d [PATCH] flags parameter for linkat
I'm currently at the POSIX meeting and one thing covered was the
incompatibility of Linux's link() with the POSIX definition.  The name.
Linux does not follow symlinks, POSIX requires it does.

Even if somebody thinks this is a good default behavior we cannot change this
because it would break the ABI.  But the fact remains that some application
might want this behavior.

We have one chance to help implementing this without breaking the behavior.
 For this we could use the new linkat interface which would need a new
flags parameter.  If the new parameter is AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW the new
behavior could be invoked.

I do not want to introduce such a patch now.  But we could add the
parameter now, just don't use it.  The patch below would do this.  Can we
get this late patch applied before the release more or less fixes the
syscall API?

fa675765af Revert mount/umount uevent removal
This change reverts the 033b96fd30 commit
from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel.
Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a
new device has been mounted.  These events are not correctly emitted,
and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any
future program.  Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to
properly detect this kind of event.

A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this
interface will be removed from the kernel.

b2f49033d8 [PATCH] fix deadlock in ext2
Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation.  This
deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was
mounted with the "sync" mount option.

The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine,
sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via
lock_buffer().  The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock
the buffer head that it was passed.  It does this via lock_buffer().  Oops.

The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode()
before invoking sync_dirty_buffer().  This makes the code in
ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers
of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation.

5ac5f9d1ce [PATCH] NLM: Fix the NLM_GRANTED callback checks
If 2 threads attached to the same process are blocking on different locks on
different files (maybe even on different servers) but have the same lock
arguments (i.e.  same offset+length - actually quite common, since most
processes try to lock the entire file) then the first GRANTED call that wakes
one up will also wake the other.

Currently when the NLM_GRANTED callback comes in, lockd walks the list of
blocked locks in search of a match to the lock that the NLM server has
granted.  Although it checks the lock pid, start and end, it fails to check
the filehandle and the server address.

By checking the filehandle and server IP address, we ensure that this only
happens if the locks truly are referencing the same file.

643a654540 [PATCH] select: fix returned timeval
With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's
`timeout' argument on return.

We were writing back a timeout larger than the original.  We _deliberately_
round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks
us to.

The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of
timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and
select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which
was passed in.

The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new
timeout value to the old one and was returning that.  It should just return
the new timeout value.

(We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in
time.h.  But this code open-codes it all).

cff2b76009 [PATCH] fstatat64 support
The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I
used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline.  The result is that
on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement
fstatat64.

This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined.  I renamed the syscall entry point to make
this clear.  Other archs will continue to use the existing code.  On x86-64
the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function.  this is what
is done for the other stat syscalls as well.

This patch might break some other archs (those which define
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall).  Yet others
might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode.  I really don't
want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in
glibc, but the kernel is also affected).  It should be done by the arch
maintainers.  I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly.  Those who are
eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed).

The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

f55eab822b [PATCH] VFS: Ensure LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag is preserved by link_path_walk()
When walking a path, the LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag is used by some filesystems
(for instance NFS) in order to determine whether or not it is looking up
the last component of the path.  It this is the case, it may have to look
at the intent information in order to perform various tasks such as atomic
open.

A problem currently occurs when link_path_walk() hits a symlink.  In this
case LOOKUP_CONTINUE may be cleared prematurely when we hit the end of the
path passed by __vfs_follow_link() (i.e.  the end of the symlink path)
rather than when we hit the end of the path passed by the user.

The solution is to have link_path_walk() clear LOOKUP_CONTINUE if and only
if that flag was unset when we entered the function.

Ben points out that:

  When writing files out using O_SYNC, jbd's 1 jiffy delay results in a
  significant drop in throughput as the disk sits idle.  The patch below
  results in a 4-5x performance improvement (from 6.5MB/s to ~24-30MB/s on my
  IDE test box) when writing out files using O_SYNC.

So optimise the batching code by omitting it entirely if the process which is
doing a sync write is the same as the one which did the most recent sync
write.  If that's true, we're unlikely to get any other processes joining the
transaction.

(Has been in -mm for ages - it took me a long time to get on to performance
testing it)

Numbers, on write-cache-disabled IDE:

/usr/bin/time -p synctest -n 10 -uf -t 1 -p 1 dir-name

Unpatched:
	40 seconds
Patched:
	35 seconds
Batching disabled:
	35 seconds

This is the problematic single-process-doing-fsync case.  With multiple
fsyncing processes the numbers are AFACIT unaltered by the patch.

Aside: performance testing and instrumentation shows that the transaction
batching almost doesn't help (testing with synctest -n 1 -uf -t 100 -p 10
dir-name on non-writeback-caching IDE).  This is because by the time one
process is running a synchronous commit, a bunch of other processes already
have a transaction handle open, so they're all going to batch into the same
transaction anyway.

The batching seems to offer maybe 5-10% speedup with this workload, but I'm
pretty sure it was more important than that when it was first developed 4-odd
years ago...

88a2a4ac6b [PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUs
percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of
cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus.

As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS
loops to use for_each_cpu().

(The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h.  powerpc has gone it
alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's
currently corrupting memory).

7d95c8f27d [PATCH] fcntl F_SETFL and read-only IS_APPEND files
There is code in setfl() which attempts to preserve the O_APPEND flag on
IS_APPEND files...  however IS_APPEND files could also be opened O_RDONLY
and in that case setfl() should not require O_APPEND...

coreutils 5.93 tail -f attempts to set O_NONBLOCK even on regular files...
unfortunately if you try this on an append-only log file the result is
this:

fcntl64(3, F_GETFL)                     = 0x8000 (flags O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE)
fcntl64(3, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)

I offer up the patch below as one way of fixing the problem...  i've tested
it fixes the problem with tail -f but haven't really tested beyond that.

(I also reported the coreutils bug upstream... it shouldn't fail imho...

35dc8161d0 [PATCH] fix O_DIRECT read of last block in a sparse file
Currently, if you open a file O_DIRECT, truncate it to a size that is not a
multiple of the disk block size, and then try to read the last block in the
file, the read will return 0.  The problem is in do_direct_IO, here:

        /* Handle holes */
        if (!buffer_mapped(map_bh)) {
                char *kaddr;

		...

                if (dio->block_in_file >=
                        i_size_read(dio->inode)>>blkbits) {
                        /* We hit eof */
                        page_cache_release(page);
                        goto out;
                }

We shift off any remaining bytes in the final block of the I/O, resulting
in a 0-sized read.  I've attached a patch that fixes this.  I'm not happy
about how ugly the math is getting, so suggestions are more than welcome.

I've tested this with a simple program that performs the steps outlined for
reproducing the problem above.  Without the patch, we get a 0-sized result
from read.  With the patch, we get the correct return value from the short
read.

034b91a3b6 [PATCH] v9fs: fix corner cases when flushing request
When v9fs_mux_rpc sends a 9P message, it may be put in the queue of unsent
request.  If the user process receives a signal, v9fs_mux_rpc sets the
request error to ERREQFLUSH and assigns NULL to request's send message.  If
the message was still in the unsent queue, v9fs_write_work would produce an
oops while processing it.

The patch makes sure that requests that are being flushed are moved to the
pending requests queue safely.

If a request is being flushed, don't remove it from the list of pending
requests even if it receives a reply before the flush is acknoledged.  The
request will be removed during from the Rflush handler (v9fs_mux_flush_cb).

		brelse (bh);
		goto next1;

sb_find_get_block() ordinarily returns a buffer_head with b_count>=2, and
this code assume that in case if "b_count>1" buffer is used, so this caused
infinite loop.

aaaa99423b NLM: Ensure that nlmclnt_cancel_callback() doesn't loop forever
If the server returns NLM_LCK_DENIED_NOLOCKS, we currently retry the
 entire NLM_CANCEL request. This may end up looping forever unless the
 server changes its mind (why would it do that, though?).

 Ensure that we limit the number of retries (to 3).

 See bug# 5957 in bugzilla.kernel.org.

16fb24252a NLM: Fix arguments to NLM_CANCEL call
The OpenGroup docs state that the arguments "block", "exclusive" and
 "alock" must exactly match the arguments for the lock call that we are
 trying to cancel.
 Currently, "block" is always set to false, which is wrong.

 See bug# 5956 on bugzilla.kernel.org.

fa385bef25 [PATCH] reiserfs: reiserfs: check for files > 2GB on 3.5.x disks
When a filesystem has been converted from 3.5.x to 3.6.x, we need an extra
check during file write to make sure we are not trying to make a 3.5.x file
> 2GB.

e0e851cf30 [PATCH] reiserfs: reiserfs hang and performance fix for data=journal mode
In data=journal mode, reiserfs writepage needs to make sure not to trigger
transactions while being run under PF_MEMALLOC.  This patch makes sure to
redirty the page instead of forcing a transaction start in this case.

Also, calling filemap_fdata* in order to trigger io on the block device can
cause lock inversions on the page lock.  Instead, do simple batching from
flush_commit_list.

d62b1b87a7 [PATCH] resierfs: fix reiserfs_invalidatepage race against data=ordered
After a transaction has closed but before it has finished commit, there is
a window where data=ordered mode requires invalidatepage to pin pages
instead of freeing them.  This patch fixes a race between the
invalidatepage checks and data=ordered writeback, and it also adds a check
to the reiserfs write_ordered_buffers routines to write any anonymous
buffers that were dirtied after its first writeback loop.

That bug works like this:

proc1: transaction closes and a new one starts
proc1: write_ordered_buffers starts processing data=ordered list
proc1: buffer A is cleaned and written
proc2: buffer A is dirtied by another process
proc2: File is truncated to zero, page A goes through invalidatepage
proc2: reiserfs_invalidatepage sees dirty buffer A with reiserfs
       journal head, pins it
proc1: write_ordered_buffers frees the journal head on buffer A

At this point, buffer A stays dirty forever
