      autofs races · ea01a184
      Al Viro authored
      * make autofs4_expire_indirect() skip the dentries being in process of
      expiry
      * do *not* mess with list_move(); making sure that dentry with
      AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING are not picked for expiry is enough.
      * do not remove NO_RCU when we set EXPIRING, don't bother with smp_mb()
      there.  Clear it at the same time we clear EXPIRING.  Makes a bunch of
      tests simpler.
      * rename NO_RCU to WANT_EXPIRE, which is what it really is.

      much milder d_walk() race · ba65dc5e
      Al Viro authored
      d_walk() relies upon the tree not getting rearranged under it without
      rename_lock being touched.  And we do grab rename_lock around the
      places that change the tree topology.  Unfortunately, branch reordering
      is just as bad from d_walk() POV and we have two places that do it
      without touching rename_lock - one in handling of cursors (for ramfs-style
      directories) and another in autofs.  autofs one is a separate story; this
      commit deals with the cursors.
      	* mark cursor dentries explicitly at allocation time
      	* make __dentry_kill() leave ->d_child.next pointing to the next
      non-cursor sibling, making sure that it won't be moved around unnoticed
      before the parent is relocked on ascend-to-parent path in d_walk().
      	* make d_walk() skip cursors explicitly; strictly speaking it's
      not necessary (all callbacks we pass to d_walk() are no-ops on cursors),
      but it makes analysis easier.

      coredump: fix dumping through pipes · 1607f09c
      Mateusz Guzik authored
      The offset in the core file used to be tracked with ->written field of
      the coredump_params structure. The field was retired in favour of
      file->f_pos.
      
      However, ->f_pos is not maintained for pipes which leads to breakage.
      
      Restore explicit tracking of the offset in coredump_params. Introduce
      ->pos field for this purpose since ->written was already reused.
      
      Fixes: a0083939 ("get rid of coredump_params->written").

      fix a regression in atomic_open() · a01e718f
      Al Viro authored
      open("/foo/no_such_file", O_RDONLY | O_CREAT) on should fail with
      EACCES when /foo is not writable; failing with ENOENT is obviously
      wrong.  That got broken by a braino introduced when moving the
      creat_error logics from atomic_open() to lookup_open().  Easy to
      fix, fortunately.

      fix d_walk()/non-delayed __d_free() race · 3d56c25e
      Al Viro authored
      Ascend-to-parent logics in d_walk() depends on all encountered child
      dentries not getting freed without an RCU delay.  Unfortunately, in
      quite a few cases it is not true, with hard-to-hit oopsable race as
      the result.
      
      Fortunately, the fix is simiple; right now the rule is "if it ever
      been hashed, freeing must be delayed" and changing it to "if it
      ever had a parent, freeing must be delayed" closes that hole and
      covers all cases the old rule used to cover.  Moreover, pipes and
      sockets remain _not_ covered, so we do not introduce RCU delay in
      the cases which are the reason for having that delay conditional
      in the first place.

      autofs braino fix for do_last() · e6ec03a2
      Al Viro authored
      It's an analogue of commit 7500c38a (fix the braino in "namei:
      massage lookup_slow() to be usable by lookup_one_len_unlocked()").
      The same problem (->lookup()-returned unhashed negative dentry
      just might be an autofs one with ->d_manage() that would wait
      until the daemon makes it positive) applies in do_last() - we
      need to do follow_managed() first.
      
      Fortunately, remaining callers of follow_managed() are OK - only
      autofs has that weirdness (negative dentry that does not mean
      an instant -ENOENT)) and autofs never has its negative dentries
      hashed, so we can't pick one from a dcache lookup.
      
      ->d_manage() is a bloody mess ;-/

      fix EOPENSTALE bug in do_last() · fac7d191
      Al Viro authored
      EOPENSTALE occuring at the last component of a trailing symlink ends up
      with do_last() retrying its lookup.  After the symlink body has been
      discarded.  The thing is, all this retry_lookup logics in there is not
      needed at all - the upper layers will do the right thing if we simply
      return that -EOPENSTALE as we would with any other error.  Trying to
      microoptimize in do_last() is a lot of headache for no good reason.

      hpfs: implement the show_options method · 037369b8
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      The HPFS filesystem used generic_show_options to produce string that is
      displayed in /proc/mounts.  However, there is a problem that the options
      may disappear after remount.  If we mount the filesystem with option1
      and then remount it with option2, /proc/mounts should show both option1
      and option2, however it only shows option2 because the whole option
      string is replaced with replace_mount_options in hpfs_remount_fs.
      
      To fix this bug, implement the hpfs_show_options function that prints
      options that are currently selected.

      affs: fix remount failure when there are no options changed · 01d6e087
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      Commit c8f33d0b ("affs: kstrdup() memory handling") checks if the
      kstrdup function returns NULL due to out-of-memory condition.
      
      However, if we are remounting a filesystem with no change to
      filesystem-specific options, the parameter data is NULL.  In this case,
      kstrdup returns NULL (because it was passed NULL parameter), although no
      out of memory condition exists.  The mount syscall then fails with
      ENOMEM.
      
      This patch fixes the bug.  We fail with ENOMEM only if data is non-NULL.
      
      The patch also changes the call to replace_mount_options - if we didn't
      pass any filesystem-specific options, we don't call
      replace_mount_options (thus we don't erase existing reported options).

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
       "This series does several related things:
      
         - Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.
      
           (Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)
      
         - Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the
           above.
      
         - Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms.  Two
           32-bit multiplies will do well enough.
      
         - Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.
      
           This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6 ("Minimal
           fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")
      
           The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
           32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
           multipliers.
      
           The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
           Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added.  Those
           patches are last in the series.
      
         - Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.
      
           The patch in commit 0fed3ac8 ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
           CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
           Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
           faster and better.  (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
           in the literature I could find.  Comments welcome!)
      
         - Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX().  This
           would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.
      
         - Sort out partial_name_hash().
      
           The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
           it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
           contributes nothing to the result.  And some callers do odd things:
      
            - fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
            - fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes
      
         - Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
           rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1.  This would simplify users other
           than full_name_hash"
      
        Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1.  (I
        learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)
      
        On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a
        standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze
        maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never
        omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from
        the H8/300 world"

      This will improve the performance of hash_32() and hash_64(), but due
      to complete lack of multi-bit shift instructions on H8, performance will
      still be bad in surrounding code.
