check_partition() stops its probe once it hits an I/O error from the
partition checkers. This would prevent the actual partition checker
getting a chance to verify the partition.
So this patch lets check_partition() continue probing untill it hits a
success while recording the I/O error which might have been reported by the
checking routines.
Also, it does some cleanup of the partition methods for ibm, atari and
amiga to return -1 upon hitting an I/O error.

The current rescan_partition implementation ignores the errors that comes from
the lower layer. It reports success for unknown partitions as well as I/O
error cases while reading the partition information.
The unknown partition is not (and will not be) considered as an error in the
kernel, since there are legal users of it (e.g, members of a RAID5 MD Device
or a new disk which is not partitioned at all ). Changing this behaviour
would scare the user about a serious problem with their disk and is not
recommended. Thus for both "unknown partitions" to the Linux (eg., DEC
VMS,Novell Netware) and the legal users of NULL partition, would still be
reported as "SUCCESS".
The patch attached here, scares the user about something which he does need to
worry about. i.e, returning -EIO on disk I/O errors while reading the
partition information.

Currently a user process cannot rise its own oom_adj value (i.e.
unprotecting itself from the OOM killer). As this value is stored in the
task structure it gets inherited and the unprivileged childs will be unable
to rise it.
The EPERM will be handled by the generic proc fs layer, as only processes
with the proper caps or the owner of the process will be able to write to
the file. So we allow only the processes with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE to lower
the value, otherwise it will get an EACCES which seems more appropriate
than EPERM.

When 0 is passed into nodeid2nodeinfo the function does not try to allocate a
new structure at all. it's an indication that the caller only wants the nodeinfo
struct for that nodeid if there actually is one in existance.
I've tidied the function itself so it's more obvious, (and tidier!)

It's just an optimisation to allow the caller to schedule if there is no work
to do. if something arrives immediately afterwards then it will get picked up
when the process re-awakes (and it will be woken by that arrival).
The 'accepting' atomic has gone completely. as Andrew pointed out it didn't
really achieve much anyway. I suspect it was a plaster over some other
startup or shutdown bug to be honest.

We must always call ->read_done() before we truncate the page data, or
decide to flag an error. The reasons are that
in NFSv2, ->read_done() is where the eof flag gets set.
in NFSv3/v4 ->read_done() handles EJUKEBOX-type errors, and
v4 state recovery.
However, we need to mark the pages as uptodate before we deal with short
read errors, since we may need to modify the nfs_read_data arguments.
We therefore split the current nfs_readpage_result() into two parts:
nfs_readpage_result(), which calls ->read_done() etc, and
nfs_readpage_retry(), which subsequently handles short reads.
Note: Removing the code that retries in case of a short read also fixes a
bug in nfs_direct_read_result(), which used to return a corrupted number of
bytes.

This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note
for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1,
/signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status,
/mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id.
A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to
specify they have extra elf core notes.
A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the
additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry.
A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes
would be written after the existing notes.
The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the
kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via
register_arch_coredump_calls().
A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the
coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the
SPU context for each file read from.

The target mode support is mapping in bios using bio_map_user. The

so this check is causing some problems. Note: pointers passed into the
kernel are properly aligned by usersapace tgt code so the uaddr check
in bio_map_user is ok.
The major user, blk_bio_map_user checks for the len before mapping
so it is not affected by this patch.
And the semi-newly added user blk_rq_map_user_iov has been failing
out when the len is not aligned properly so maybe people have been
good and not sending misaligned lens or that path is not used very
often and this change will not be very dangerous. st and sg do not

GFS2: fsid=: Trying to join cluster "lock_nolock", "dasde1"
GFS2: fsid=dasde1.0: Joined cluster. Now mounting FS...
GFS2: not a GFS2 filesystem
GFS2: fsid=dasde1.0: can't read superblock: -22
==========================================================================
On debugging further we found that problem is while reading the super
block(gfs2_read_super) and comparing the magic number in it.
When I replace the submit_bio() call(present in gfs2_read_super) with
the sb_getblk() and ll_rw_block(), mount operation succeded.
On further analysis we found that before calling submit_bio(),
bio->bi_sector was set to "sector" variable. This "sector" variable has
the same value of bh->b_blocknr(block number). Hence there is a need to
multiply this valuwith (blocksize >> 9)(9 because,sector size
2^9,samething happens in ll_rw_block also, before calling submit_bio()).
So I have developed the patch which solves this problem. Please let me
know your comments.

We often abort a recovery after sending a status request to a remote node.
We want to ignore any potential status reply we get from the remote node.
If we get one of these unwanted replies, we've often moved on to the next
recovery message and incremented the message sequence counter, so the
reply will be ignored due to the seq number. In some cases, we've not
moved on to the next message so the seq number of the reply we want to
ignore is still correct, causing the reply to be accepted. The next
recovery message will then mistake this old reply as a new one.
To fix this, we add the flag RCOM_WAIT to indicate when we can accept a
new reply. We clear this flag if we abort recovery while waiting for a
reply. Before the flag is set again (to allow new replies) we know that
any old replies will be rejected due to their sequence number. We also
initialize the recovery-message sequence number to a random value when a
lockspace is first created. This makes it clear when messages are being
rejected from an old instance of a lockspace that has since been
recreated.

Requests that arrive after recovery has started are saved in the
requestqueue and processed after recovery is done. Some of these requests
are purged during recovery if they are from nodes that have been removed.
We move the purging of the requests (dlm_purge_requestqueue) to later in
the recovery sequence which allows the routine saving requests
(dlm_add_requestqueue) to avoid filtering out requests by nodeid since the
same will be done by the purge. The current code has add_requestqueue
filtering by nodeid but doesn't hold any locks when accessing the list of
current nodes. This also means that we need to call the purge routine
when the lockspace is being shut down since the add routine will not be
rejecting requests itself any more.

This fixes a bug which resulted in poor performance due to flushing
the journal too often. The code path in question was via the inode_go_sync()
function in glops.c. The solution is not to flush the journal immediately
when inodes are ejected from memory, but batch up the work for glockd to
deal with later on. This means that glocks may now live on beyond the end of
the lifetime of their inodes (but not very much longer in the normal case).
Also fixed in this patch is a bug (which was hidden by the bug mentioned above) in
calculation of the number of free journal blocks.
The gfs2_logd process has been altered to be more responsive to the journal
filling up. We now wake it up when the number of uncommitted journal blocks
has reached the threshold level rather than trying to flush directly at the
end of each transaction. This again means doing fewer, but larger, log
flushes in general.

This is often ok, but sometimes it will cause yet another recovery hang.
If it's a new node that also has the lowest nodeid that skips the barrier
wait, then it misses the important step of collecting and reporting the

When many nodes are joining a lockspace simultaneously, the dlm gets a
quick sequence of stop/start events, a pair for adding each node.
dlm_controld in user space sends dlm_recoverd in the kernel each stop and
start event. dlm_controld will sometimes send the stop before
dlm_recoverd has had a chance to take up the previously queued start. The
stop aborts the processing of the previous start by setting the
RECOVERY_STOP flag. dlm_recoverd is erroneously clearing this flag and
ignoring the stop/abort if it happens to take up the start after the stop
meant to abort it. The fix is to check the sequence number that's
incremented for each stop/start before clearing the flag.

only required when nodes are removed. This can result in locks not being

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().
In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

On rename, for both the old and new lower dentry objects, eCryptfs is
missing a dput on the lower parent directory dentry. This patch will
prevent the BUG() at fs/dcache.c:613 from being hit after renaming a file
inside eCryptfs and then doing a umount on the lower filesystem.

(David:)
If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example,
because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff
will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path.
But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path
will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the
non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will
cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in
the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the
same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud
entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't
have a machine to test it on.
(Hugh:)
prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks
virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from
unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same
prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do.
Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor
is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of
VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if
hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region
when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad
behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge
mappings into a separate region of the address space.

Resolve the panic on failed mount of an autofs filesystem originally
reported by Mao Bibo.
It addresses two issues that happen after the mount fail. The first a NULL
pointer reference to a field (pipe) in the autofs superblock info structure
and second the lack of super block cleanup by the autofs and autofs4
modules.

[CIFS] Fix minor problem with previous patch
[CIFS] Fix mount failure when domain not specified
[CIFS] Explicitly set stat->blksize
[CIFS] NFS stress test generates flood of "close with pending write" messages
The previous fixes for the use after free in xfs_iunpin left a nasty log
deadlock when xfslogd unpinned the inode and dropped the last reference to
the inode. the ->clear_inode() method can issue transactions, and if the
log was full, the transaction could push on the log and get stuck trying
to push the inode it was currently unpinning.
To fix this, we provide xfs_iunpin a guarantee that it will always have a
valid xfs_inode <-> linux inode link or a particular flag will be set on
the inode. We then use log forces during lookup to ensure transactions are
completed before we recycle the inode. This ensures that xfs_iunpin will
never use the linux inode after it is being freed, and any lookup on an
inode on the reclaim list will wait until it is safe to attach a new linux
inode to the xfs inode.

Commit 6264d69d7d modified the nfsd_create()
error handling in such a way that nfsd_create will usually return
nfserr_perm even when succesful, if the export has the async export option.
This introduced a regression that could cause mkdir() to always return a
permissions error, even though the directory in question was actually
succesfully created.

In the case where an open creates the file, we shouldn't be rechecking
permissions to open the file; the open succeeds regardless of what the new
file's mode bits say.
This patch fixes the problem, but only by introducing yet another parameter
to nfsd_create_v3. This is ugly. This will be fixed by later patches.

Fixes Samba bugzilla #4176
When users do not specify their domain on mount, 2.6.18 started sending
default domain instead of a null domain (which was the only way on some
servers to use a default domain). Users of 2.6.18 who did not specify
their domain name on mounts to certain common Windows servers that were
members of a domain, but not the domain controller, would get mount
failures which they did not get in 2.6.18
This fixes that issue and should remove complaints about mount
behavior changing.
