4afe978 jbd: fix error handling for checkpoint io When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD code doesn't check the error and continue journaling. This means latest metadata can be lost from both the journal and filesystem. This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and aborts journaling in the case of log_do_checkpoint(). To achieve this, we need to do: 1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or overwritten by a later transaction 2. log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list and abort the journal 3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned. For safety, don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either 4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext3 layer so that ext3 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase 5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag 6. prevent cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between __journal_drop_transaction() and journal_abort() (a race issue between journal_flush() and __log_wait_for_space() Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: <linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 23 October 2008, 15:55:01 UTC

7c88db0 proc: fix vma display mismatch between /proc/pid/{maps,smaps} Commit 4752c369789250eafcd7813e11c8fb689235b0d2 aka "maps4: simplify interdependence of maps and smaps" broke /proc/pid/smaps, causing it to display some vmas twice and other vmas not at all. For example: grep .- /proc/1/smaps >/tmp/smaps; diff /proc/1/maps /tmp/smaps 1 25d24 2 < 7fd7e23aa000-7fd7e23ac000 rw-p 7fd7e23aa000 00:00 0 3 28a28 4 > ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vsyscall] The bug has something to do with setting m->version before all the seq_printf's have been performed. show_map was doing this correctly, but show_smap was doing this in the middle of its seq_printf sequence. This patch arranges things so that the setting of m->version in show_smap is also done at the end of its seq_printf sequence. Testing: in addition to the above grep test, for each process I summed up the 'Rss' fields of /proc/pid/smaps and compared that to the 'VmRSS' field of /proc/pid/status. All matched except for Xorg (which has a /dev/mem mapping which Rss accounts for but VmRSS does not). This result gives us some confidence that neither /proc/pid/maps nor /proc/pid/smaps are any longer skipping or double-counting vmas.

2c51239 [patch 1/3] FS_MBCACHE: don't needlessly make it built-in Assume you have: - one or more of ext2/3/4 statically built into your kernel - none of these with extended attributes enabled and - want to add onother one of ext2/3/4 modular and with extended attributes enabled then you currently have to reboot to use it since this results in CONFIG_FS_MBCACHE=y.

f696a36 [PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission() For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites. This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> 23 October 2008, 09:13:25 UTC

91efc16 [PATCH] reiserfs: add missing llseek method Reiserfs currently doesn't set a llseek method for regular files, which means it will fall back to default_llseek. This means no one can seek beyond 2 Gigabytes on reiserfs, and that there's not protection vs the i_size updates from writers.

4e9ed2f [PATCH vfs-2.6 6/6] vfs: add LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET intent This adds LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET intent for lookup of rename destination. LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET is going to be used like LOOKUP_CREATE. But since the destination of rename() can be existing directory entry, so it has a difference. Although that difference doesn't matter in my usage, this tells it to user of this intent.

14f7dd6 [PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code. Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file system code can cause deadlock. XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works. It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file systems too, where it's completely unnecessary. Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only for the affected file systems.

4ea3ada [PATCH] new helper: d_obtain_alias The calling conventions of d_alloc_anon are rather unfortunate for all users, and it's name is not very descriptive either. Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations. Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers to d_obtain_alias.

b63365a net: Fix disjunct computation of netdev features My change commit e2a6b85247aacc52d6ba0d9b37a99b8d1a3e0d83 net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device didn't do what was intended because the netdev_compute_features function was designed for conjunctions. So what happened was that it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device. This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions under the new name of netdev_increment_features. It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration. This ensures that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via ethtool. The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
