I've got a report of a file corruption from fsxlinux on ext3. The important operations to the page were: mapwrite to a hole partial write to the page read - found the page zeroed from the end of the normal write The culprit seems to be that if get_block() fails in __block_write_begin() (e.g. transient ENOSPC in ext3), the function does ClearPageUptodate(page). Thus when we retry the write, the logic in __block_write_begin() thinks zeroing of the page is needed and overwrites old data. In fact, I don't see why we should ever need to zero the uptodate bit here - either the page was uptodate when we entered __block_write_begin() and it should stay so when we leave it, or it was not uptodate and noone had right to set it uptodate during __block_write_begin() so it remains !uptodate when we leave as well. So just remove clearing of the bit. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

afs_fill_page should read the page that is about to be written but the current implementation has a number of issues. If we aren't extending the file we always read PAGE_CACHE_SIZE at offset 0. If we are extending the file we try to read the entire file. Change afs_fill_page to read PAGE_CACHE_SIZE at the right offset, clamped to i_size. While here, avoid calling afs_fill_page when we are doing a PAGE_CACHE_SIZE write.

[Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down] If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up. The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt with the new mountpoint vfsmount. During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know this. The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing. We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does. The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount() keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed. The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int pid, ws; struct stat buf; pid = fork(); stat(argv[1], &buf); if (pid > 0) wait(&ws); return 0; } and the following procedure: (1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server: mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered. !!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!! (2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two simultaneous automount requests: /tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile (3) Unmount the automounted submount: umount /mnt/data (4) Unmount the original mount: umount /mnt At this point the kernel should throw a BUG with something like the following: BUG: Dentry ffff880032e3c5c0{i=2,n=} still in use (1) [unmount of nfs4 0:12] Note that the bug appears on the root dentry of the original mount, not the mountpoint and not the submount because sys_umount() hasn't got to its final mntput_no_expire() yet, but this isn't so obvious from the call trace: [<ffffffff8117cd82>] shrink_dcache_for_umount+0x69/0x82 [<ffffffff8116160e>] generic_shutdown_super+0x37/0x15b [<ffffffffa00fae56>] ? nfs_super_return_all_delegations+0x2e/0x1b1 [nfs] [<ffffffff811617f3>] kill_anon_super+0x1d/0x7e [<ffffffffa00d0be1>] nfs4_kill_super+0x60/0xb6 [nfs] [<ffffffff81161c17>] deactivate_locked_super+0x34/0x83 [<ffffffff811629ff>] deactivate_super+0x6f/0x7b [<ffffffff81186261>] mntput_no_expire+0x18d/0x199 [<ffffffff811862a8>] mntput+0x3b/0x44 [<ffffffff81186d87>] release_mounts+0xa2/0xbf [<ffffffff811876af>] sys_umount+0x47a/0x4ba [<ffffffff8109e1ca>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x1fd/0x22f [<ffffffff816ea86b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b as do_umount() is inlined. However, you can see release_mounts() in there. Note also that it may be necessary to have multiple CPU cores to be able to trigger this bug.

Git bisection shows that commit e6bc45d6 causes BUG_ONs under high I/O load: kernel BUG at fs/inode.c:1368!

The buggy part of the patch is this: struct inode *inode = NULL; ..... - if (nd.last.name[nd.last.len]) - goto slashes; inode = dentry->d_inode; - if (inode) - ihold(inode); + if (nd.last.name[nd.last.len] || !inode) + goto slashes; + ihold(inode) ... if (inode) iput(inode); /* truncate the inode here */ If nd.last.name[nd.last.len] is nonzero (and thus goto slashes branch is taken), and dentry->d_inode is non-NULL, then this code now does an additional iput on the inode, which is wrong. Fix this by only setting the inode variable if nd.last.name[nd.last.len] is 0.

* new refcount in struct net, controlling actual freeing of the memory * new method in kobj_ns_type_operations (->drop_ns()) * ->current_ns() semantics change - it's supposed to be followed by corresponding ->drop_ns(). For struct net in case of CONFIG_NET_NS it bumps the new refcount; net_drop_ns() decrements it and calls net_free() if the last reference has been dropped. Method renamed to ->grab_current_ns(). * old net_free() callers call net_drop_ns() instead. * sysfs_exit_ns() is gone, along with a large part of callchain leading to it; now that the references stored in ->ns[...] stay valid we do not need to hunt them down and replace them with NULL. That fixes problems in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_readdir(), along with getting rid of sb->s_instances abuse. Note that struct net *shutdown* logics has not changed - net_cleanup() is called exactly when it used to be called. The only thing postponed by having a sysfs instance refering to that struct net is actual freeing of memory occupied by struct net. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* allocate ubifs_info in ->mount(), fill it enough for sb_test() and set ->s_fs_info to it in set() callback passed to sget(). * do *not* free it in ->put_super(); do that in ->kill_sb() after we'd done kill_anon_super(). * don't free it in ubifs_fill_super() either - deactivate_locked_super() done by caller when ubifs_fill_super() returns an error will take care of that sucker. * get rid of kludge with passing ubi to ubifs_fill_super() in ->s_fs_info; we only need it in alloc_ubifs_info(), so ubifs_fill_super() will need only ubifs_info. Which it will find in ->s_fs_info just fine, no need to reassign anything... As the result, sb_test() becomes safe to apply to all superblocks that can be found by sget() (and a kludge with temporary use of ->s_fs_info to store a pointer to very different structure goes away).

During converting per-cpu ticker to genirq layer some IRQ initialization code was removed by commit 2cf95304 ("sparc32,leon: per-cpu ticker use genirq per-cpu handler"). This patch reintroduces the code at the same place it was removed from. IRQ12 - IRQ14 will crash on LEON SMP without this patch because it will run the SUN4M IRQ trap handler.

Three new IPIs were introduced by commit ecbc42b7 ("sparc32, sun4m: Implemented SMP IPIs support for SUN4M machines"), the old handler was already prepared for IPIs but handled only IRQ14 and IRQ13, this patch adds support for the new IPI at IRQ12.

Unconditionally changing the address limit to USER_DS and not restoring it to its old value in the error path is wrong because it prevents us using kernel memory on repeated calls to this function. This, in fact, breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being ever successful if the first candidate fails to load. With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded) probed paths. Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread() will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed.

When using 64K pages with a separate cpio rootfs, U-Boot will align the rootfs on a 4K page boundary. When the memory is reserved, and subsequent early memblock_alloc is called, it will allocate memory between the 64K page alignment and reserved memory. When the reserved memory is subsequently freed, it is done so by pages, causing the early memblock_alloc requests to be re-used, which in my case, caused the device-tree to be clobbered. This patch forces the reserved memory for initrd to be kernel page aligned, and will move the device tree if it overlaps with the range extension of initrd. This patch will also consolidate the identical function free_initrd_mem() from mm/init_32.c, init_64.c to mm/mem.c, and adds the same range extension when freeing initrd. free_initrd_mem() is also moved to the __init section. Many thanks to Milton Miller for his input on this patch.
