Now that bdi_writeback_all() no longer handles integrity writeback, it doesn't have to block anymore. This means that we can switch bdi_list reader side protection to RCU. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Jens Axboe authored
Data integrity writeback must use bdi_start_writeback() and ensure that wbc->sb and wbc->bdi are set. Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Jens Axboe authored
We do this automatically in get_sb_bdev() from the set_bdev_super() callback. Filesystems that have their own private backing_dev_info must assign that in ->fill_super(). Note that ->s_bdi assignment is required for proper writeback! Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Jens Axboe authored
We need to be able to pass in range_cyclic as well, so instead of growing yet another argument, split the arguments into a struct wb_writeback_args structure that we can use internally. Also makes it easier to just copy all members to an on-stack struct, since we can't access work after clearing the pending bit. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Christoph Hellwig authored
Since it's an opportunistic writeback and not a data integrity action, don't punt to blocking writeback. Just wakeup the thread and it will flush old data. Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Fix a number of problems with the new key garbage collector: (1) A rogue semicolon in keyring_gc() was causing the initial count of dead keys to be miscalculated. (2) A missing return in keyring_gc() meant that under certain circumstances, the keyring semaphore would be unlocked twice. (3) The key serial tree iterator (key_garbage_collector()) part of the garbage collector has been modified to: (a) Complete each scan of the keyrings before setting the new timer. (b) Only set the new timer for keys that have yet to expire. This means that the new timer is now calculated correctly, and the gc doesn't get into a loop continually scanning for keys that have expired, and preventing other things from happening, like RCU cleaning up the old keyring contents. (c) Perform an extra scan if any keys were garbage collected in this one as a key might become garbage during a scan, and (b) could mean we don't set the timer again. (4) Made key_schedule_gc() take the time at which to do a collection run, rather than the time at which the key expires. This means the collection of dead keys (key type unregistered) can happen immediately. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

When we exit early from keyctl_session_to_parent because of permissions or because the session keyring is the same as the parent, we need to unlock the tasklist. The missing unlock causes the system to hang completely when using keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT) with a keyring shared with the parent.

put_cred() will oops if given a NULL groups list, but that is now possible with the existence of cred_alloc_blank(), as used in keyctl_session_to_parent().
