      mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create(). · 20c2df83
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
      c59def9f change. They've been
      BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
      either.
      
      This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
      completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
      about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
      or the documentation references).

      Detach sched.h from mm.h · e8edc6e0
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
      function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
      mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
      
      This patch
      a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
      b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
      c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
      d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
      e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
         getting them indirectly
      
      Net result is:
      a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
         they don't need sched.h
      b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
         on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
         after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).
      
      Cross-compile tested on
      
      	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,

      add filesystem subtype support · 79c0b2df
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      There's a slight problem with filesystem type representation in fuse
      based filesystems.
      
      From the kernel's view, there are just two filesystem types: fuse and
      fuseblk.  From the user's view there are lots of different filesystem
      types.  The user is not even much concerned if the filesystem is fuse based
      or not.  So there's a conflict of interest in how this should be
      represented in fstab, mtab and /proc/mounts.
      
      The current scheme is to encode the real filesystem type in the mount
      source.  So an sshfs mount looks like this:
      
        sshfs#user@server:/   /mnt/server    fuse   rw,nosuid,nodev,...
      
      This url-ish syntax works OK for sshfs and similar filesystems.  However
      for block device based filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs) it doesn't work, since
      the kernel expects the mount source to be a real device name.
      
      A possibly better scheme would be to encode the real type in the type
      field as "type.subtype".  So fuse mounts would look like this:
      
        /dev/hda1       /mnt/windows   fuseblk.ntfs-3g   rw,...
        user@server:/   /mnt/server    fuse.sshfs        rw,nosuid,nodev,...
      
      This patch adds the necessary code to the kernel so that this can be
      correctly displayed in /proc/mounts.

      slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag · 50953fe9
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL.  It is only supported by
      SLAB.
      
      I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
      to verify that the state is the constructor state again?  The callback is
      performed before each freeing of an object.
      
      I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
      before the free.  That also places the check near the code object
      manipulation of the object.
      
      Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
      compiled with SLAB debugging on.  If there would be code in a constructor
      handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
      SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code.  But there is no such code
      in the kernel.  I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
      use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
      same effect (i.e.  add debug code before kfree).
      
      There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
      clear in fs inode caches.  Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
      pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.
      
      This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support.  Remove the check for
      unimplemented flags from SLUB.

      [PATCH] fuse: fix handling of moved directory · d2a85164
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      Fuse considered it an error (EIO) if lookup returned a directory inode, to
      which a dentry already refered.  This is because directory aliases are not
      allowed.
      
      But in a network filesystem this could happen legitimately, if a directory is
      moved on a remote client.  This patch attempts to relax the restriction by
      trying to first evict the offending alias from the cache.  If this fails, it
      still returns an error (EBUSY).
      
      A rarer situation is if an mkdir races with an indenpendent lookup, which
      finds the newly created directory already moved.  In this situation the mkdir
      should return success, but that would be incorrect, since the dentry cannot be
      instantiated, so return EBUSY.
      
      Previously checking for a directory alias and instantiation of the dentry
      weren't done atomically in lookup/mkdir, hence two such calls racing with each
      other could create aliased directories.  To prevent this introduce a new
      per-connection mutex: fuse_conn->inst_mutex, which is taken for instantiations
      with a directory inode.

      [PATCH] fuse: fix hang on SMP · 9ffbb916
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      Fuse didn't always call i_size_write() with i_mutex held which caused rare
      hangs on SMP/32bit.  This bug has been present since fuse-2.2, well before
      being merged into mainline.
      
      The simplest solution is to protect i_size_write() with the per-connection
      spinlock.  Using i_mutex for this purpose would require some restructuring of
      the code and I'm not even sure it's always safe to acquire i_mutex in all
      places i_size needs to be set.
      
      Since most of vmtruncate is already duplicated for other reasons, duplicate
      the remaining part as well, making all i_size_write() calls internal to fuse.
      
      Using i_size_write() was unnecessary in fuse_init_inode(), since this function
      is only called on a newly created locked inode.
      
      Reported by a few people over the years, but special thanks to Dana Henriksen
      who was persistent enough in helping me debug it.

      [PATCH] fuse: use jiffies_64 · 0a0898cf
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      It is entirely possible (though rare) that jiffies half-wraps around, while a
      dentry/inode remains in the cache.  This could mean that the dentry/inode is
      not invalidated for another half wraparound-time.
      
      To get around this problem, use 64-bit jiffies.  The only problem with this is
      that dentry->d_time is 32 bits on 32-bit archs.  So use d_fsdata as the high
      32 bits.  This is an ugly hack, but far simpler, than having to allocate
      private data just for this purpose.
      
      Since 64-bit jiffies can be assumed never to wrap around, simple comparison
      can be used, and a zero time value can represent "invalid".
