This reverts commit b43d17f3. Dave Jones reports that it causes lockups on his laptop, and his debug output showed a lot of processes hung waiting for page_writeback (or more commonly - processes hung waiting for a lock that was held during that writeback wait). The page_writeback hint made Ted suggest that Dave look at this commit, and Dave verified that reverting it makes his problems go away. Ted says: "That commit fixes a race which is seen when you write into fallocated (and hence uninitialized) disk blocks under *very* heavy memory pressure. Furthermore, although theoretically it could trigger under normal direct I/O writes, it only seems to trigger if you are issuing a huge number of AIO writes, such that a just-written page can get evicted from memory, and then read back into memory, before the workqueue has a chance to update the extent tree. This race has been around for a little over a year, and no one noticed until two months ago; it only happens under fairly exotic conditions, and in fact even after trying very hard to create a simple repro under lab conditions, we could only reproduce the problem and confirm the fix on production servers running MySQL on very fast PCIe-attached flash devices. Given that Dave was able to hit this problem pretty quickly, if we confirm that this commit is at fault, the only reasonable thing to do is to revert it IMO."

Pull nfsd changes from Bruce Fields: Highlights: - Benny Halevy and Tigran Mkrtchyan implemented some more 4.1 features, moving us closer to a complete 4.1 implementation. - Bernd Schubert fixed a long-standing problem with readdir cookies on ext2/3/4. - Jeff Layton performed a long-overdue overhaul of the server reboot recovery code which will allow us to deprecate the current code (a rather unusual user of the vfs), and give us some needed flexibility for further improvements. - Like the client, we now support numeric uid's and gid's in the auth_sys case, allowing easier upgrades from NFSv2/v3 to v4.x. Plus miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanup. Thanks to everyone! There are also some delegation fixes waiting on vfs review that I suppose will have to wait for 3.5. With that done I think we'll finally turn off the "EXPERIMENTAL" dependency for v4 (though that's mostly symbolic as it's been on by default in distro's for a while). And the list of 4.1 todo's should be achievable for 3.5 as well: http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues though we may still want a bit more experience with it before turning it on by default. * 'for-3.4' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (55 commits) nfsd: only register cld pipe notifier when CONFIG_NFSD_V4 is enabled nfsd4: use auth_unix unconditionally on backchannel nfsd: fix NULL pointer dereference in cld_pipe_downcall nfsd4: memory corruption in numeric_name_to_id() sunrpc: skip portmap calls on sessions backchannel nfsd4: allow numeric idmapping nfsd: don't allow legacy client tracker init for anything but init_net nfsd: add notifier to handle mount/unmount of rpc_pipefs sb nfsd: add the infrastructure to handle the cld upcall nfsd: add a header describing upcall to nfsdcld nfsd: add a per-net-namespace struct for nfsd sunrpc: create nfsd dir in rpc_pipefs nfsd: add nfsd4_client_tracking_ops struct and a way to set it nfsd: convert nfs4_client->cl_cb_flags to a generic flags field NFSD: Fix nfs4_verifier memory alignment NFSD: Fix warnings when NFSD_DEBUG is not defined nfsd: vfs_llseek() with 32 or 64 bit offsets (hashes) nfsd: rename 'int access' to 'int may_flags' in nfsd_open() ext4: return 32/64-bit dir name hash according to usage type fs: add new FMODE flags: FMODE_32bithash and FMODE_64bithash ...

Replace radix_tree_gang_lookup_slot() and radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag_slot() in page-cache lookup functions with brand-new radix-tree direct iterating. This avoids the double-scanning and pointer copying. Iterator don't stop after nr_pages page-get fails in a row, it continue lookup till the radix-tree end. Thus we can safely remove these restart conditions. Unfortunately, old implementation didn't forbid nr_pages == 0, this corner case does not fit into new code, so the patch adds an extra check at the beginning.

Iterating divided into two phases: * lookup next chunk in radix-tree leaf node * iterating through slots in this chunk Main iterator function radix_tree_next_chunk() returns pointer to first slot, and stores in the struct radix_tree_iter index of next-to-last slot. For tagged-iterating it also constuct bitmask of tags for retunted chunk. All additional logic implemented as static-inline functions and macroses. Also adds radix_tree_find_next_bit() static-inline variant of find_next_bit() optimized for small constant size arrays, because find_next_bit() too heavy for searching in an array with one/two long elements.

In the case of a child pid namespace, rebooting the system does not really makes sense. When the pid namespace is used in conjunction with the other namespaces in order to create a linux container, the reboot syscall leads to some problems. A container can reboot the host. That can be fixed by dropping the sys_reboot capability but we are unable to correctly to poweroff/ halt/reboot a container and the container stays stuck at the shutdown time with the container's init process waiting indefinitively. After several attempts, no solution from userspace was found to reliabily handle the shutdown from a container. This patch propose to make the init process of the child pid namespace to exit with a signal status set to : SIGINT if the child pid namespace called "halt/poweroff" and SIGHUP if the child pid namespace called "reboot". When the reboot syscall is called and we are not in the initial pid namespace, we kill the pid namespace for "HALT", "POWEROFF", "RESTART", and "RESTART2". Otherwise we return EINVAL. Returning EINVAL is also an easy way to check if this feature is supported by the kernel when invoking another 'reboot' option like CAD. By this way the parent process of the child pid namespace knows if it rebooted or not and can take the right decision. Test case: ========== #include <alloca.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sched.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <sys/reboot.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <linux/reboot.h> static int do_reboot(void *arg) { int *cmd = arg; if (reboot(*cmd)) printf("failed to reboot(%d): %m\n", *cmd); } int test_reboot(int cmd, int sig) { long stack_size = 4096; void *stack = alloca(stack_size) + stack_size; int status; pid_t ret; ret = clone(do_reboot, stack, CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, &cmd); if (ret < 0) { printf("failed to clone: %m\n"); return -1; } if (wait(&status) < 0) { printf("unexpected wait error: %m\n"); return -1; } if (!WIFSIGNALED(status)) { printf("child process exited but was not signaled\n"); return -1; } if (WTERMSIG(status) != sig) { printf("signal termination is not the one expected\n"); return -1; } return 0; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int status; status = test_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART, SIGHUP); if (status < 0) return 1; printf("reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART) succeed\n"); status = test_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2, SIGHUP); if (status < 0) return 1; printf("reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2) succeed\n"); status = test_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT, SIGINT); if (status < 0) return 1; printf("reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT) succeed\n"); status = test_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF, SIGINT); if (status < 0) return 1; printf("reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWERR_OFF) succeed\n"); status = test_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_CAD_ON, -1); if (status >= 0) { printf("reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_CAD_ON) should have failed\n"); return 1; } printf("reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_CAD_ON) has failed as expected\n"); return 0; } [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak and add comments] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@free.fr> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Tested-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: "Eric W.

The IPMI watchdog timer clears or extends the timer on reboot/shutdown. It was using the non-locking routine for setting the watchdog timer, but this was causing race conditions.
