As comment says, we don't need to call f2fs_lock_op in write_inode to prevent from producing dirty node pages all the time. That happens only when there is not enough free sections and we can avoid that by calling balance_fs in prior to that. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>

This fixes the incorrect return statement at the end of the function f2fs_ioc_release_volatile_write's body for returning zero as this is incorrect due to the function call before this return statement to the function punch_hole being able to fail and we should return this function's return fail directly in order to signal to callers of the function f2fs_ioc_release_volatile if a failure arises with this call to punch_hole fails.

Pull strscpy fixes from Chris Metcalf : "This patch series fixes up a couple of architecture issues where strscpy wasn't configured correctly (missing on h8300, duplicating local and asm-generic copies on powerpc and tile). It also adds a use of zero_bytemask() to the final store for strscpy to avoid writing uninitialized data to the destination. However, to make this work we had to add support for zero_bytemask() to the two architectures that didn't have it (alpha and tile), because they were providing their own local copies, but didn't provide the zero_bytemask() that was previously only required when building with CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS" [ Side note: there is still no actual users of strscpy except for the one preexisting use in arch/tile that predates the generic version.

Linus Torvalds authored
This reverts commit 998ef75d. The commit itself does not appear to be buggy per se, but it is exposing a bug in ext4 (and Ted thinks ext3 too, but we solved that by getting rid of it). It's too late in the release cycle to really worry about this, even if Dave Hansen has a patch that may actually fix the underlying ext4 problem. We can (and should) revisit this for the next release. The problem is that moving the prefaulting later now exposes a special case with partially successful writes that isn't handled correctly. And the prefaulting likely isn't normally even that much of a performance issue - it looks like at least one reason Dave saw this in his performance tests is that he also ran them on Skylake that now supports the new SMAP code, which makes the normally very cheap user space prefaulting noticeably more expensive.

With commit 633d6f17 (x86/xen: prepare p2m list for memory hotplug) the P2M may be sized to accomdate a much larger amount of memory than the domain currently has. When saving a domain, the toolstack must scan all the P2M looking for populated pages. This results in a performance regression due to the unnecessary scanning. Instead of reporting (via shared_info) the maximum possible size of the P2M, hint at the last PFN which might be populated. This hint is increased as new leaves are added to the P2M (in the expectation that they will be used for populated entries).

This is the arm64 portion of commit 45cac65b ("readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection"), which was absent from the initial port and has since gone unnoticed. The original commit says: > .fault now can retry. The retry can break state machine of .fault. In > filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second > try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And > these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access. > > Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip > ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it. With this change, Mark reports that: > Random read improves by 250%, sequential read improves by 40%, and > random write by 400% to an eMMC device with dm crypto wrapped around it.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp filters because the said filters never had the change to run since the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall syscall code.
