The recent filldir regression fix was not putting the correct d_off in
each dirent. This was resulting in incorrect cookies being passed to dmapi
ioctls and the wrong offset appearing in the dirents. readdir was
unaffected as the filp->f_pos was being updated with the correct offset
and this was being written into the last dirent in each buffer. Fix the
XFS code to do the right thing.

On last close of a file we purge blocks beyond eof. The same code is used
when we truncate the file size down. In this case we need to wait for any
pending I/Os for dirty pages beyond the new eof. For the last close case
we are not changing the file size and therefore do not need to wait for
any I/Os to complete. This fixes a performance bottleneck where writes
into the page cache and cache flushes can become mutually exclusive.

Ultimately to implement /proc perfectly we need an implementation of
d_revalidate because files and directories can be removed behind the back
of the VFS, and d_revalidate is the only way we can let the VFS know that
this has happened.
Unfortunately the linux VFS can not cope with anything in the path to a
mount point going away. So a proper d_revalidate method that calls d_drop
also needs to call have_submounts which is moderately expensive, so you
really don't want a d_revalidate method that unconditionally calls it, but
instead only calls it when the backing object has really gone away.
proc generic entries only disappear on module_unload (when not counting the
fledgling network namespace) so it is quite rare that we actually encounter
that case and has not actually caused us real world trouble yet.
So until we get a proper test for keeping dentries in the dcache fix the
current d_revalidate method by completely removing it. This returns us to
the current status quo.
So with CONFIG_NETNS=n things should look as they have always looked.
For CONFIG_NETNS=y things work most of the time but there are a few rare
corner cases that don't behave properly. As the network namespace is
barely present in 2.6.24 this should not be a problem.

The radix tree based inode caches did away with the inode cluster hashes,
replacing them with a bunch of masking and gang lookups on the radix tree.
This masking got broken when moving the code to per-ag radix trees and
indexing by agino # rather than straight inode number. The result is
clustered inode writeback does not cluster and things can go extremely
slowly when there are lots of inodes to write.
Fix it up by comparing the agino # of the inode we just looked up to the
index of the cluster we are looking for.

PAGE_CACHE_SIZE (ie offset = 3k, len = 2k).
- setting b_buffer_length to 'len' is incorrect if 'offset'
is > 0. Set it to the total length of the buffer.
- I suspect that passing a non-aligned address into

- sanity check for NULL user buffer in xfs_ioc_bulkstat[_compat]()
- remove the special case for XFS_IOC_FSBULKSTAT with count == 1. This
special case causes bulkstat to fail because the special case uses
xfs_bulkstat_single() instead of xfs_bulkstat() and the two functions
have different semantics. xfs_bulkstat() will return the next inode
after the one supplied while skipping internal inodes (ie quota inodes).
xfs_bulkstate_single() will only lookup the inode supplied and return
an error if it is an internal inode.
- in xfs_bulkstat(), need to initialise 'lastino' to the inode supplied
so in cases were we return without examining any inodes the scan wont
restart back at zero.
- sanity check for valid *ubcountp values. Cannot sanity check for valid
ubuffer here because some users of xfs_bulkstat() don't supply a buffer.
- checks against 'ubleft' (the space left in the user's buffer) should be
against 'statstruct_size' which is the supplied minimum object size.
The mixture of checks against statstruct_size and 0 was one of the
reasons we were skipping inodes.
- if the formatter function returns BULKSTAT_RV_NOTHING and an error and
the error is not ENOENT or EINVAL then we need to abort the scan. ENOENT
is for inodes that are no longer valid and we just skip them. EINVAL is
returned if we try to lookup an internal inode so we skip them too. For
a DMF scan if the inode and DMF attribute cannot fit into the space left
in the user's buffer it would return ERANGE. We didn't handle this error
and skipped the inode. We would continue to skip inodes until one fitted
into the user's buffer or we completed the scan.
- put back the recalculation of agino (that got removed with the last fix)
at the end of the while loop. This is because the code at the start of
the loop expects agino to be the last inode examined if it is non-zero.
- if we found some inodes but then encountered an error, return success
this time and the error next time. If the formatter aborted with ENOMEM
we will now return this error but only if we couldn't read any inodes.
Previously if we encountered ENOMEM without reading any inodes we
returned a zero count and no error which falsely indicated the scan was
complete.

Before we start committing a transaction, we call
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back
buffers.
If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some
buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction
because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some
assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :).
We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a
transaction in T_FINISHED state. The locking there is subtle though (as
everywhere in JBD ;(). We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a
subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end
of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction
can get to T_FINISHED state.
Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary -
checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a
transaction must be already committed to be processed or from
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus
transaction cannot change state either. Better be safe if something
changes in future...

Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support
for /proc/net. Currently things work but there are odd details visible to
user space, even when we have a single network namespace.
Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just
modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the
network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the
current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method.
To accomplish that this patch:
- introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to
be returned from proc_lookup.
- Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic
- Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries.
As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can
go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code
that uses the shadow_proc method.

proc_kill_inodes() can clear ->i_fop in the middle of vfs_readdir resulting in
NULL dereference during "file->f_op->readdir(file, buf, filler)".
The solution is to remove proc_kill_inodes() completely:
a) we don't have tricky modules implementing their tricky readdir hooks which
could keeping this revoke from hell.
b) In a situation when module is gone but PDE still alive, standard
readdir will return only "." and "..", because pde->next was cleared by
remove_proc_entry().
c) the race proc_kill_inode() destined to prevent is not completely
fixed, just race window made smaller, because vfs_readdir() is run
without sb_lock held and without file_list_lock held. Effectively,
->i_fop is cleared at random moment, which can't fix properly anything.

sysfs: fix off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer()
kobject: two typo fixes
UIO: add UIO documentation target to DocBook Makefile
UIO: fix up the UIO documentation
create /sys/.../power when CONFIG_PM is set
allow LEGACY_PTYS to be set to 0
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.
