8118a859dc sysfs: fix off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer()
I found that there is a off-by-one problem in the following code.

Version:	2.6.24-rc2
File:		fs/sysfs/file.c:118-122
Function:	fill_read_buffer
--------------------------------------------------------------------
	count = ops->show(kobj, attr_sd->s_attr.attr, buffer->page);

	sysfs_put_active_two(attr_sd);

	BUG_ON(count > (ssize_t)PAGE_SIZE);
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Because according to the specification of the sysfs and the implement of
the show methods, the show methods return the number of bytes which would
be generated for the given input, excluding the trailing null.So if the
return value of the show methods equals PAGE_SIZE - 1, the buffer is full
in fact.  And if the return value equals PAGE_SIZE, the resulting string
was already truncated,or buffer overflow occurred.

This patch fixes an off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer.

b1967d0edd ocfs2: reverse inline-data truncate args
ocfs2_truncate() and ocfs2_remove_inode_range() had reversed their "set
i_size" arguments to ocfs2_truncate_inline(). Fix things so that truncate
sets i_size, and punching a hole ignores it.

This exposed a problem where punching a hole in an inline-data file wasn't
updating the page cache, so fix that too.

bccb9dad89 ocfs2: Remove bug statement in ocfs2_dentry_iput()
The existing bug statement didn't take into account unhashed dentries which
might not have a cluster lock on them. This could happen if a node exporting
the file system via NFS is rebooted, re-exported to nfs clients and then
unmounted. It's fine in this case to not have a dentry cluster lock.

Just remove the bug statement and replace it with an error print, which
does the proper checks. Though we want to know if something has happened
which might have prevented a cluster lock from being created, it's
definitely not necessary to panic the machine for this.

cea218054a [CIFS] Fix potential data corruption when writing out cached dirty pages
Fix RedHat bug 329431

The idea here is separate "conscious" from "unconscious" flushes.
Conscious flushes are those due to a fsync() or close(). Unconscious
ones are flushes that occur as a side effect of some other operation or
due to memory pressure.

Currently, when an error occurs during an unconscious flush (ENOSPC or
EIO), we toss out the page and don't preserve that error to report to
the user when a conscious flush occurs. If after the unconscious flush,
there are no more dirty pages for the inode, the conscious flush will
simply return success even though there were previous errors when writing
out pages. This can lead to data corruption.

The easiest way to reproduce this is to mount up a CIFS share that's
very close to being full or where the user is very close to quota. mv
a file to the share that's slightly larger than the quota allows. The
writes will all succeed (since they go to pagecache). The mv will do a
setattr to set the new file's attributes. This calls
filemap_write_and_wait,
which will return an error since all of the pages can't be written out.
Then later, when the flush and release ops occur, there are no more
dirty pages in pagecache for the file and those operations return 0. mv
then assumes that the file was written out correctly and deletes the
original.

CIFS already has a write_behind_rc variable where it stores the results
from earlier flushes, but that value is only reported in cifs_close.
Since the VFS ignores the return value from the release operation, this
isn't helpful. We should be reporting this error during the flush
operation.

This patch does the following:

1) changes cifs_fsync to use filemap_write_and_wait and cifs_flush and also
sync to check its return code. If it returns successful, they then check
the value of write_behind_rc to see if an earlier flush had reported any
errors. If so, they return that error and clear write_behind_rc.

2) sets write_behind_rc in a few other places where pages are written
out as a side effect of other operations and the code waits on them.

3) changes cifs_setattr to only call filemap_write_and_wait for
ATTR_SIZE changes.

4) makes cifs_writepages accurately distinguish between EIO and ENOSPC
errors when writing out pages.

Some simple testing indicates that the patch works as expected and that
it fixes the reproduceable known problem.

4c1fe2f78a kernel BUG at fs/nfs/namespace.c:108! - can be triggered by bad server
Hi Trond,

I have discovered that the BUG_ON in nfs_follow_mountpoint:

	BUG_ON(IS_ROOT(dentry));

can be triggered by a misbehaving server.

What happens is the client does a lookup and discoveres that the named
directory has a different fsid, so it initiates a mount.
It then performs a GETATTR on the mounted directory and gets a
different fsid again (due to a bug in the NFS server).
This causes nfs_follow_mountpoint to be called on the newly mounted
root, which triggers the BUG_ON.

To duplicate this, have a directory which contains some mountpoints,
and export that directory with the "crossmnt" flag using nfs-utils
1.1.1 (or 1.1.0 I think)

The GETATTR on the root of the mounted filesystem will return the
information for the top exportpoint, while a lookup will return the
correct information.  This difference causes the NFS client to BUG.

I think the best way to fix this is to trap this possibility early, so
just before completing the mount in the NFS client, check that it isn't
going to use nfs_mountpoint_inode_operations.
As long as i_op will never change once set (is that true?), this
should be adequately safe.

The following patch shows a possible approach, and it works for me.
i.e. when the NFS server is misbehaving, I get ESTALE on those
mountpoints, while when the NFS server is working correctly, I get
correct behaviour on the client.

cb51f973bc mark sys_open/sys_read exports unused
sys_open / sys_read were used in the early 1.2 days to load firmware from
disk inside drivers.  Since 2.0 or so this was deprecated behavior, but
several drivers still were using this.  Since a few years we have a
request_firmware() API that implements this in a nice, consistent way.
Only some old ISA sound drivers (pre-ALSA) still straggled along for some
time....  however with commit c2b1239a9f the
last user is now gone.

This is a good thing, since using sys_open / sys_read etc for firmware is a
very buggy to dangerous thing to do; these operations put an fd in the
process file descriptor table....  which then can be tampered with from
other threads for example.  For those who don't want the firmware loader,
filp_open()/vfs_read are the better APIs to use, without this security
issue.

The patch below marks sys_open and sys_read unused now that they're
really not used anymore, and for deletion in the 2.6.25 timeframe.

So this patch removes the unnecessary special case (removing a usage of
proc_mnt) and corrects the flushing of the thread directories.

c06a018fa5 reiserfs: don't drop PG_dirty when releasing sub-page-sized dirty file
This is not a new problem in 2.6.23-git17.  2.6.22/2.6.23 is buggy in the
same way.

Reiserfs could accumulate dirty sub-page-size files until umount time.
They cannot be synced to disk by pdflush routines or explicit `sync'
commands.  Only `umount' can do the trick.

The direct cause is: the dirty page's PG_dirty is wrongly _cleared_.
Call trace:
	 [<ffffffff8027e920>] cancel_dirty_page+0xd0/0xf0
	 [<ffffffff8816d470>] :reiserfs:reiserfs_cut_from_item+0x660/0x710

	 [<ffffffff8029fe0d>] sys_close+0xad/0x110
	 [<ffffffff8020c41e>] system_call+0x7e/0x83

Fix the bug by removing the cancel_dirty_page() call. Tests show that
it causes no bad behaviors on various write sizes.

=== for the patient ===
Here are more detailed demonstrations of the problem.

1) the page has both PG_dirty(D)/PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY(d) after being written to;
   and then only PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY(d) remains after the file is closed.

------------------------------ screen 0 ------------------------------
[T0] root /home/wfg# cat > /test/tiny
[T1] hi
[T2] root /home/wfg#

------------------------------ screen 1 ------------------------------
[T1] root /home/wfg# echo /test/tiny > /proc/filecache
[T1] root /home/wfg# cat /proc/filecache
     # file /test/tiny
     # flags R:referenced A:active M:mmap U:uptodate D:dirty W:writeback O:owner B:buffer d:dirty w:writeback
     # idx   len     state   refcnt
     0       1       ___UD__Bd_      2
[T2] root /home/wfg# cat /proc/filecache
     # file /test/tiny
     # flags R:referenced A:active M:mmap U:uptodate D:dirty W:writeback O:owner B:buffer d:dirty w:writeback
     # idx   len     state   refcnt
     0       1       ___U___Bd_      2

2) note the non-zero 'cancelled_write_bytes' after /tmp/hi is copied.

------------------------------ screen 0 ------------------------------
[T0] root /home/wfg# echo hi > /tmp/hi
[T1] root /home/wfg# cp /tmp/hi /dev/stdin /test
[T2] hi
[T3] root /home/wfg#

------------------------------ screen 1 ------------------------------
[T1] root /proc/4397# cd /proc/`pidof cp`
[T1] root /proc/4713# cat io
     rchar: 8396
     wchar: 3
     syscr: 20
     syscw: 1
     read_bytes: 0
     write_bytes: 20480
     cancelled_write_bytes: 4096
[T2] root /proc/4713# cat io

     syscw: 2
     read_bytes: 0
     write_bytes: 24576
     cancelled_write_bytes: 4096

//Question: the 'write_bytes' is a bit more than expected ;-)

f433dc5634 Fixes to the BFS filesystem driver
I found a few bugs in the BFS driver.  Detailed description of the bugs as
well as the steps to reproduce the errors are given in the kernel bugzilla.
 Please follow these links for more information:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9363
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9364
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9365
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9366

This patch fixes the bugs described above.  Besides, the patch introduces
coding style changes to make the BFS driver conform to the requirements
specified for Linux kernel code.  Finally, I made a few cosmetic changes
such as removal of trivial debug output.

Also, the patch removes the fields `si_lf_ioff' and `si_lf_sblk' of the
in-core superblock structure.  These fields are initialized but never
actually used.

If you are wondering why I need BFS, here is the answer: I am using this
driver in the context of Linux kernel classes I am teaching in the Moscow
State University and in the International Institute of Information
Technology in Pune, India.

c79fb75e5a hugetlb: fix quota management for private mappings
The hugetlbfs quota management system was never taught to handle MAP_PRIVATE
mappings when that support was added.  Currently, quota is debited at page
instantiation and credited at file truncation.  This approach works correctly
for shared pages but is incomplete for private pages.  In addition to
hugetlb_no_page(), private pages can be instantiated by hugetlb_cow(); but
this function does not respect quotas.

Private huge pages are treated very much like normal, anonymous pages.  They
are not "backed" by the hugetlbfs file and are not stored in the mapping's
radix tree.  This means that private pages are invisible to
truncate_hugepages() so that function will not credit the quota.

This patch (based on a prototype provided by Ken Chen) moves quota crediting
for all pages into free_huge_page().  page->private is used to store a pointer
to the mapping to which this page belongs.  This is used to credit quota on
the appropriate hugetlbfs instance.

in playing with these flags when quota is on.  Furthermore there is a
remote possibility of deadlock due to a lock inversion between quota file's
i_mutex and transaction's start (i_mutex for quota file is locked only when
trasaction is started in quota operations) in ext3 and ext4.

133672efbc [CIFS] Fix buffer overflow if server sends corrupt response to small
request

In SendReceive() function in transport.c - it memcpy's
message payload into a buffer passed via out_buf param. The function
assumes that all buffers are of size (CIFSMaxBufSize +
MAX_CIFS_HDR_SIZE) , unfortunately it is also called with smaller
(MAX_CIFS_SMALL_BUFFER_SIZE) buffers.  There are eight callers
(SMB worker functions) which are primarily affected by this change:

TreeDisconnect, uLogoff, Close, findClose, SetFileSize, SetFileTimes,
Lock and PosixLock

0b832a4b93 Revert "ext2/ext3/ext4: add block bitmap validation"
This reverts commit 7c9e69faa2, fixing up
conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually.

The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the
bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive.  We could, and probably
should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache.  However,
right now we are better off just reverting it.

Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85%
decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to
just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still
a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.
