In the typical v2/v3 case the only new filehandles used as arguments to operations are filehandles taken directly off the wire, which don't get dentries until fh_verify() is called. But in v4 the filehandles that are arguments to operations were often created by previous operations (putrootfh, lookup, etc.) using fh_compose, which sets the dentry in the filehandle without calling nfsd_setuser(). This also means that, for example, if filesystem B is mounted on filesystem A, and filesystem A is exported without root-squashing, then a client can bypass the rootsquashing on B using a compound that starts at a filehandle in A, crosses into B using lookups, and then does stuff in B.

nfsd tries to return to a client the same sort of filehandle as was used by the client. This removes some filehandle aliasing issues and means that a server upgrade followed by a downgrade will not confused clients not restarted during that time. However when crossing a mountpoint, the filehandle used for one filesystem doesn't provide any useful information on what sort of filehandle should be used on the other, and can provide misleading information. So if the reference filehandle is on a different filesystem to the one being generated, ignore it. Signed-off-by:

There is a perfectly valid situation where fh_update gets called on an already uptodate filehandle - in nfsd_create_v3 where a CREATE_UNCHECKED finds an existing file and wants to just set the size. We could possible optimise out the call in that case, but the only harm involved is that fh_update prints a warning, so it is easier to remove the warning. Signed-off-by:

Remove add_mc_to_global_list(). In next patch, this function will be reimplemented with different semantics. 1 Reimplement add_mc_to_global_list() with semantics that allow the caller to determine the ID number for a mem_ctl_info structure. Then modify edac_mc_add_mc() so that the caller specifies the ID number for the new mem_ctl_info structure. Platform-specific code should be able to assign the ID numbers in a platform-specific manner. For instance, on Opteron it makes sense to have the ID of the mem_ctl_info structure match the ID of the node that the memory controller belongs to. 2 Modify callers of edac_mc_add_mc() so they use the new semantics.

Fix a bug identified by Zou Nan hai <nanhai.zou@intel.com>: If the system is in state SYSTEM_BOOTING, and need_resched() is true, cond_resched() returns true even though it didn't reschedule. Consequently need_resched() remains true and JBD locks up. Fix that by teaching cond_resched() to only return true if it really did call schedule(). cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq() have a problem too. If we're in SYSTEM_BOOTING state and need_resched() is true, these functions will drop the lock and will then try to call schedule(), but the SYSTEM_BOOTING state will prevent schedule() from being called. So on return, need_resched() will still be true, but cond_resched_lock() has to return 1 to tell the caller that the lock was dropped. The caller will probably lock up. Bottom line: if these functions dropped the lock, they _must_ call schedule() to clear need_resched(). Make it so. Also, uninline __cond_resched(). It's largeish, and slowpath. Acked-by:

I run an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace (Ubuntu Dapper) and decided to try out UML today. I found that UML wasn't quite aware of biarch compilers (which Ubuntu i386 ships). A fix similar to what was done for x86_64 should probably be committed (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113425940204010&w=2 ). Without the FLAGS changes, the build will fail at a number of places and without the LINK change, the final link will fail. Signed-off-by:

-mm in combination with an FC5 init started dying with 'stderr=1' because init didn't like the lack of /dev/console and exited. The problem was that the stderr console, which is intended to dump printk output to the terminal before the regular console is initialized, isn't a tty, and so can't make /dev/console operational. However, since it is registered first, the normal console, when it is registered, doesn't become the preferred console, and isn't attached to /dev/console. Thus, /dev/console is never operational. This patch makes the stderr console unregister itself in an initcall, which is late enough that the normal console is registered. When that happens, the normal console will become the preferred console and will be able to run /dev/console. Signed-off-by:

This patch extends the security_task_kill hook to handle signals sent by AIO completion.

The remaining counters in page_state after the zoned VM counter patches have been applied are all just for show in /proc/vmstat. They have no essential function for the VM. We use a simple increment of per cpu variables. In order to avoid the most severe races we disable preempt. Preempt does not prevent the race between an increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics counter. However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one increment or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that the vm event counters have to be accurate. In the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each counter. For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a single instruction. This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64. And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for both architectures in most cases. The patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a building of linux kernels without these counters. The implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully results in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted (i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction concurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done). Benefits: - VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction on i386 and x86_64. - No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case. Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock. - Handling is similar to zoned VM counters. - Simple and easily extendable. - Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.

The numa statistics are really event counters. But they are per node and so we have had special treatment for these counters through additional fields on the pcp structure. We can now use the per zone nature of the zoned VM counters to realize these. This will shrink the size of the pcp structure on NUMA systems. We will have some room to add additional per zone counters that will all still fit in the same cacheline. Bits Prior pcp size Size after patch We can add ------------------------------------------------------------------ 64 128 bytes (16 words) 80 bytes (10 words) 48 32 76 bytes (19 words) 56 bytes (14 words) 8 (64 byte cacheline) 72 (128 byte) Remove the special statistics for numa and replace them with zoned vm counters. This has the side effect that global sums of these events now show up in /proc/vmstat. Also take the opportunity to move the zone_statistics() function from page_alloc.c into vmstat.c.
