generic_file_aio_read() was looping over the target iovec, with loop over (source) pages nested inside that. Just set an iov_iter up and pass *that* to do_generic_file_aio_read(). With copy_page_to_iter() doing all work of mapping and copying a page to iovec and advancing iov_iter. Switch shmem_file_aio_read() to the same and kill file_read_actor(), while we are at it.

Make delayed_free() call free_vfsmnt() so that we don't have two functions doing the same job. This requires the calls to mnt_free_id() in free_vfsmnt() to be moved into the callers of that function. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

new flag in ->f_mode - FMODE_WRITER. Set by do_dentry_open() in case when it has grabbed write access, checked by __fput() to decide whether it wants to drop the sucker. Allows to stop bothering with mnt_clone_write() in alloc_file(), along with fewer special_file() checks. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The current mainline has copies propagated to *all* nodes, then tears down the copies we made for nodes that do not contain counterparts of the desired mountpoint. That sets the right propagation graph for the copies (at teardown time we move the slaves of removed node to a surviving peer or directly to master), but we end up paying a fairly steep price in useless allocations. It's fairly easy to create a situation where N calls of mount(2) create exactly N bindings, with O(N^2) vfsmounts allocated and freed in process. Fortunately, it is possible to avoid those allocations/freeings. The trick is to create copies in the right order and find which one would've eventually become a master with the current algorithm. It turns out to be possible in O(nodes getting propagation) time and with no extra allocations at all. One part is that we need to make sure that eventual master will be created before its slaves, so we need to walk the propagation tree in a different order - by peer groups. And iterate through the peers before dealing with the next group. Another thing is finding the (earlier) copy that will be a master of one we are about to create; to do that we are (temporary) marking the masters of mountpoints we are attaching the copies to. Either we are in a peer of the last mountpoint we'd dealt with, or we have the following situation: we are attaching to mountpoint M, the last copy S_0 had been attached to M_0 and there are sequences S_0...S_n, M_0...M_n such that S_{i+1} is a master of S_{i}, S_{i} mounted on M{i} and we need to create a slave of the first S_{k} such that M is getting propagation from M_{k}. It means that the master of M_{k} will be among the sequence of masters of M. On the other hand, the nearest marked node in that sequence will either be the master of M_{k} or the master of M_{k-1} (the latter - in the case if M_{k-1} is a slave of something M gets propagation from, but in a wrong peer group). So we go through the sequence of masters of M until we find a marked one (P). Let N be the one before it. Then we go through the sequence of masters of S_0 until we find one (say, S) mounted on a node D that has P as master and check if D is a peer of N. If it is, S will be the master of new copy, if not - the master of S will be. That's it for the hard part; the rest is fairly simple. Iterator is in next_group(), handling of one prospective mountpoint is propagate_one(). It seems to survive all tests and gives a noticably better performance than the current mainline for setups that are seriously using shared subtrees.

fixes RCU bug - walking through hlist is safe in face of element moves, since it's self-terminating. Cyclic lists are not - if we end up jumping to another hash chain, we'll loop infinitely without ever hitting the original list head.

If the dest_mnt is not shared, propagate_mnt() does nothing - there's no mounts to propagate to and thus no copies to create. Might as well don't bother calling it in that case. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Olivier Bonvalet reported having repeated crashes due to a failed assertion he was hitting in rbd_img_obj_callback(): Assertion failure in rbd_img_obj_callback() at line 2165: rbd_assert(which >= img_request->next_completion); With a lot of help from Olivier with reproducing the problem we were able to determine the object and image requests had already been completed (and often freed) at the point the assertion failed. There was a great deal of discussion on the ceph-devel mailing list about this. The problem only arose when there were two (or more) object requests in an image request, and the problem was always seen when the second request was being completed. The problem is due to a race in the window between setting the "done" flag on an object request and checking the image request's next completion value. When the first object request completes, it checks to see if its successor request is marked "done", and if so, that request is also completed. In the process, the image request's next_completion value is updated to reflect that both the first and second requests are completed. By the time the second request is able to check the next_completion value, it has been set to a value *greater* than its own "which" value, which caused an assertion to fail. Fix this problem by skipping over any completion processing unless the completing object request is the next one expected. Test only for inequality (not >=), and eliminate the bad assertion.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) We've discovered a common error in several networking drivers, they put VLAN offload features into ->vlan_features, which would suggest that they support offloading 2 or more levels of VLAN encapsulation. Not only do these devices not do that, but we don't have the infrastructure yet to handle that at all. Fixes from Vlad Yasevich. 2) Fix tcpdump crash with bridging and vlans, also from Vlad. 3) Some MAINTAINERS updates for random32 and bonding. 4) Fix late reseeds of prandom generator, from Sasha Levin. 5) Bridge doesn't handle stacked vlans properly, fix from Toshiaki Makita. 6) Fix deadlock in openvswitch, from Flavio Leitner. 7) get_timewait4_sock() doesn't report delay times correctly, fix from Eric Dumazet. 8) Duplicate address detection and addrconf verification need to run in contexts where RTNL can be obtained. Move them to run from a workqueue. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 9) Fix route refcount leaking in ip tunnels, from Pravin B Shelar. 10) Don't return -EINTR from non-blocking recvmsg() on AF_UNIX sockets, from Eric Dumazet. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (28 commits) vlan: Warn the user if lowerdev has bad vlan features. veth: Turn off vlan rx acceleration in vlan_features ifb: Remove vlan acceleration from vlan_features qlge: Do not propaged vlan tag offloads to vlans bridge: Fix crash with vlan filtering and tcpdump net: Account for all vlan headers in skb_mac_gso_segment MAINTAINERS: bonding: change email address MAINTAINERS: bonding: change email address ipv6: move DAD and addrconf_verify processing to workqueue tcp: fix get_timewait4_sock() delay computation on 64bit openvswitch: fix a possible deadlock and lockdep warning bridge: Fix handling stacked vlan tags bridge: Fix inabillity to retrieve vlan tags when tx offload is disabled vhost: validate vhost_get_vq_desc return value vhost: fix total length when packets are too short random32: avoid attempt to late reseed if in the middle of seeding random32: assign to network folks in MAINTAINERS net/mlx4_core: pass pci_device_id.driver_data to __mlx4_init_one during reset core, nfqueue, openvswitch: Orphan frags in skb_zerocopy and handle errors vlan: Set hard_header_len according to available acceleration ...
