Btrfs has to make sure we have space to allocate new blocks in order to modify the inode, so updating time can fail. We've gotten around this by having our own file_update_time but this is kind of a pain, and Christoph has indicated he would like to make xfs do something different with atime updates. So introduce ->update_time, where we will deal with i_version an a/m/c time updates and indicate which changes need to be made. The normal version just does what it has always done, updates the time and marks the inode dirty, and then filesystems can choose to do something different. I've gone through all of the users of file_update_time and made them check for errors with the exception of the fault code since it's complicated and I wasn't quite sure what to do there, also Jan is going to be pushing the file time updates into page_mkwrite for those who have it so that should satisfy btrfs and make it not a big deal to check the file_update_time() return code in the generic fault path.

This patch stops reiserfs using the VFS 'write_super()' method along with the s_dirt flag, because they are on their way out. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds, even if there are no diry superblocks, or there are no client file-systems which would need this (e.g., btrfs does not use '->write_super()'). So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super()' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread.

The 'journal_mark_dirty()' function currently first marks the superblock as dirty by setting 's_dirt' to 1, then does various sanity checks and returns, then actuall does all the magic with the journal. This is not an ideal order, though. It makes more sense to first do all the checks, then do all the internal stuff, and at the end notify the VFS that the superblock is now dirty. This patch moves the 's_dirt = 1' assignment from the very beginning of this function to the very end.

The 'reiserfs_resize()' function marks the superblock as dirty by assigning 1 to 's_dirt' and then calls 'journal_mark_dirty()' which does the same. Thus, we can remove the assignment from 'reiserfs_resize()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Turn 'reiserfs_flush_old_commits()' into a void function because the callers do not cares about what it returns anyway. We are going to remove the 'sb->s_dirt' field completely and this patch is a small step towards this direction.

__mnt_make_shortterm() in there undoes the effect of __mnt_make_longterm() we'd done back when we set ->mnt_ns non-NULL; it should not be done to vfsmounts that had never gone through commit_tree() and friends.

As described in commit 07d106d0 ("vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling"), drivers should return -ENOIOCTLCMD if they receive an ioctl command which they don't understand. Doing so will result in -ENOTTY being returned to userspace, which matches the behaviour of the compat layer if it fails to translate an ioctl command. This patch fixes the pipe ioctl to return -ENOIOCTLCMD instead of -EINVAL when passed an unknown ioctl command.

A directory should never have more than one dentry pointing to it. But d_splice_alias() will add one if it finds a directory with an already-existing non-DISCONNECTED dentry. I can't find an obvious reproducer, but I also can't see what prevents d_splice_alias() from encountering such a case. It therefore seems safest to allow d_splice_alias to use any dentry it finds. (Prior to the removal of dentry_unhash() from vfs_rmdir(), around v3.0, this could cause an nfsd deadlock like this: - Somebody attempts to remove a non-empty directory. - The dentry_unhash() in vfs_rmdir() unhashes the dentry pointing to the non-empty directory. - ->rmdir() then fails with -ENOTEMPTY - Before the vfs_rmdir() caller reaches dput(), an nfsd process in rename looks up the directory by filehandle; at the end of that lookup, this dentry is found by d_alloc_anon(), and a reference is taken on it, preventing dput() from removing it. - A regular lookup of the directory calls d_splice_alias(), finds only an unhashed (not a DISCONNECTED) dentry, and insteads adds a new one, so the directory now has two dentries. - The nfsd process in rename, which was previously looking up the source directory of the rename, now looks up the target directory (which is the same), and gets the dentry newly created by the previous lookup. - The rename, seeing two different dentries, assumes this is a cross-directory rename and attempts to take the i_mutex on the directory twice. That reproducer no longer exists, but I don't think there was anything fundamentally incorrect about the vfs_rmdir() behavior there, so I think the real fault was here in d_splice_alias().)

Recently I'm working on fanotify and found the following strange behaviors. I wrote a program to set fanotify_mark on "/tmp/block" and FAN_DENY all events notified. fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_EVENTS | FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo cat: foo: Operation not permitted Operation on the file is blocked as expected. But, fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo aaa It's not blocked anymore. This is confusing behavior. Also reading commit "fsnotify: call fsnotify_parent in perm events", it seems like fsnotify should handle subfiles' perm events as well as the other notify events. With this patch, regardless of FAN_ALL_EVENTS set or not: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo cat: foo: Operation not permitted Operation on the file is now blocked properly. FS_OPEN_PERM and FS_ACCESS_PERM are not listed on FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD. Due to fsnotify_inode_watches_children() check, if you only specify only these events as fsnotify_mask, you don't get subfiles' perm events notified. This patch add the events to FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD to get them notified even if only these events are specified to fsnotify_mask.

When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, iversion is not updated. This patch uses ATTR_SIZE flag as an indication to increment iversion. Mimi said: On fput(), i_version is used to detect and flag files that have changed and need to be re-measured in the IMA measurement policy. When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, i_version is not updated. As a result, although the file has changed, it will not be re-measured and added to the IMA measurement list on subsequent access.

Currently JFFS2 file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the write-buffer. Namely, it uses VFS services to synchronize the write-buffer periodically. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread. This patch switches the JFFS2 write-buffer management from '->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to a delayed work. Instead of setting the 's_dirt' flag we just schedule a delayed work for synchronizing the write-buffer.

We do not need to call 'jffs2_write_super()' on sync. This function causes a GC pass to make sure the current contents is pushed out with the data which we already have on the media. But this is not needed on unmount and only slows sync down unnecessarily. It is enough to just sync the write-buffer. This call was added by one of the generic VFS rework patch-sets, see d579ed00.
