20887611 (lguest: notify on empty) introduced lguest support for the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY flag, but in fact it turned on interrupts all the time. Because we always process one buffer at a time, the inflight count is always 0 when call trigger_irq and so we always ignore VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT from the Guest. It should be looking to see if there are more buffers in the Guest's queue: if it's empty, then we force an interrupt. This makes little difference, since we usually have an empty queue; but that's the subject of another patch. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

The Launcher could be inside the Guest on another CPU; wake_up_process will do nothing because it is "running". kick_process will knock it back into our kernel in this case, otherwise we'll miss it until the next guest exit. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

lguest needs kick_process: wake_up_process() does nothing if a process is running, which isn't sufficient (we need it in the kernel). And lguest support is usually modular. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Since the Launcher process runs the Guest, it doesn't have to be very serious about its barriers: the Guest isn't running while we are (Guest is UP). Before we change to use threads to service devices, we need to fix this. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

We hand the /dev/lguest fd everywhere; it's far neater to just make it a global (it already is, in fact, hidden in the waker_fds struct). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

We can't trust the values in the device descriptor table once the guest has booted, so keep local copies. They could set them to strange values then cause us to segv (they're 8 bit values, so they can't make our pointers go too wild). This becomes more important with the following patches which read them. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

This will remove every bd_mount_sem use in nilfs. The intended exclusion control was replaced by the previous patch ("nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function") for nilfs_remount(), and this patch will replace remains with a new mutex that this inserts in nilfs object.

nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance. Even though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or remount, the mount state was not properly protected in nilfs_remount(). Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem; nilfs_get_sb() holds: 1. bdev->bd_mount_sem 2. sb->s_umount (sget acquires) and nilfs_remount() holds: 1. sb->s_umount (locked by the caller in vfs) 2. bdev->bd_mount_sem To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount state protection in nilfs_remount(). With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and the lock order reversal will be resolved. And the new rw-semaphore, nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the modification from nilfs_error function.

This simplifies the test function passed on the remaining sget() callsite in nilfs. Instead of checking mount type (i.e. ro-mount/rw-mount/snapshot mount) in the test function passed to sget(), this patch first looks up the nilfs_sb_info struct which the given mount type matches, and then acquires the super block instance holding the nilfs_sb_info.

This stops using sget() for checking if an r/w-mount or an r/o-mount exists on the device. This elimination uses a back pointer to the current mount added to nilfs object.

This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb() function. Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget() call. This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no object is found on the device.

The following EBUSY case in nilfs_get_sb() is meaningless. Indeed, this error code is never returned to the caller. if (!s->s_root) { ... } else if (!(s->s_flags & MS_RDONLY)) { err = -EBUSY; } This simply removes the else case.

Now that all filesystems provide ->sync_fs methods we can change __sync_filesystem to only call ->sync_fs. This gives us a clear separation between periodic writeouts which are driven by ->write_super and data integrity syncs that go through ->sync_fs.

unfortunately, for affs (especially for affs directories) we have no real way to keep track of metadata ownership. So we have to do more or less what file_fsync() does, but we do *not* need to call write_super() there. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
