All callers of ceph_match_vxattr() determine what to pass as the first argument by calling ceph_inode_vxattrs(inode). Just do that inside ceph_match_vxattr() itself, changing it to take an inode rather than the vxattr pointer as its first argument. Also ensure the function works correctly for an empty table (i.e., containing only a terminating null entry).

For some reason, ceph_setxattr() allocates an extra byte in which a '\0' is stored past the end of an extended attribute value. This is not needed, and is potentially misleading, so get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@dreamhost.com> Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

A spinlock is used to protect a value used for selecting an array index for a string used for formatting a socket address for human consumption. The index is reset to 0 if it ever reaches the maximum index value. Instead, use an ever-increasing atomic variable as a sequence number, and compute the array index by masking off all but the sequence number's lowest bits. Make the number of entries in the array a power of two to allow the use of such a mask (to avoid jumps in the index value when the sequence number wraps). The length of these strings is somewhat arbitrarily set at 60 bytes. The worst-case length of a string produced is 54 bytes, for an IPv6 address that can't be shortened, e.g.: [1234:5678:9abc:def0:1111:2222:123.234.210.100]:32767 Change it so we arbitrarily use 64 bytes instead; if nothing else it will make the array of these line up better in hex dumps. Rename a few things to reinforce the distinction between the number of strings in the array and the length of individual strings.

The existing overflow check (n > ULONG_MAX / b) didn't work, because n = ULONG_MAX / b would both bypass the check and still overflow the allocation size a + n * b.

The Ceph messenger would sometimes queue multiple work items to write data to a socket when the socket buffer was full. Fix this problem by making ceph_write_space() use SOCK_NOSPACE in the same way that net/core/stream.c:sk_stream_write_space() does, i.e., clearing it only when sufficient space is available in the socket buffer.

Commit 28d82dc1 ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications to longer work (dovecot for one). The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting (since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.

Fixes from Eric Dumazet. 3) usbnet driver doesn't allocate the right amount of headroom on fresh RX SKBs, fix from Eric Dumazet. 4) Fix regression in ip6_mc_find_dev_rcu(), as an RCU lookup it abolutely should not take a reference to 'dev', this leads to leaks.

When writing files to afs I sometimes hit a BUG: kernel BUG at fs/afs/rxrpc.c:179! With a backtrace of: afs_free_call afs_make_call afs_fs_store_data afs_vnode_store_data afs_write_back_from_locked_page afs_writepages_region afs_writepages The cause is: ASSERT(skb_queue_empty(&call->rx_queue)); Looking at a tcpdump of the session the abort happens because we are exceeding our disk quota: rx abort fs reply store-data error diskquota exceeded (32) So the abort error is valid. We hit the BUG because we haven't freed all the resources for the call. By freeing any skbs in call->rx_queue before calling afs_free_call we avoid hitting leaking memory and avoid hitting the BUG.

This reverts commit d47a0ac7 (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of flows) As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects. In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for unlimited amount of time. It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would add complexity outside of SFQ scope. A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.
