      userns: Allow the userns root to mount ramfs. · b3c6761d
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      There is no backing store to ramfs and file creation
      rules are the same as for any other filesystem so
      it is semantically safe to allow unprivileged users
      to mount it.
      
      The memory control group successfully limits how much
      memory ramfs can consume on any system that cares about
      a user namespace root using ramfs to exhaust memory
      the memory control group can be deployed.

      fs: do not assign default i_ino in new_inode · 85fe4025
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Instead of always assigning an increasing inode number in new_inode
      move the call to assign it into those callers that actually need it.
      For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is
      the call is added to all filesystems that do not assign an i_ino
      by themselves.  For a few more filesystems we can avoid assigning
      any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others
      it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed,
      but that's left for later patches.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      ramfs: ignore unknown mount options · 0a8eba9b
      Mike Frysinger 提交于
      On systems where CONFIG_SHMEM is disabled, mounting tmpfs filesystems can
      fail when tmpfs options are used.  This is because tmpfs creates a small
      wrapper around ramfs which rejects unknown options, and ramfs itself only
      supports a tiny subset of what tmpfs supports.  This makes it pretty hard
      to use the same userspace systems across different configuration systems.
      As such, ramfs should ignore the tmpfs options when tmpfs is merely a
      wrapper around ramfs.
      
      This used to work before commit c3b1b1cb as previously, ramfs would
      ignore all options.  But now, we get:
      ramfs: bad mount option: size=10M
      mount: mounting mdev on /dev failed: Invalid argument
      
      Another option might be to restore the previous behavior, where ramfs
      simply ignored all unknown mount options ... which is what Hugh prefers.

      Ramfs and Ram Disk pages are unevictable · ba9ddf49
      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      Christoph Lameter pointed out that ram disk pages also clutter the LRU
      lists.  When vmscan finds them dirty and tries to clean them, the ram disk
      writeback function just redirties the page so that it goes back onto the
      active list.  Round and round she goes...
      
      With the ram disk driver [rd.c] replaced by the newer 'brd.c', this is no
      longer the case, as ram disk pages are no longer maintained on the lru.
      [This makes them unmigratable for defrag or memory hot remove, but that
      can be addressed by a separate patch series.] However, the ramfs pages
      behave like ram disk pages used to, so:
      
      Define new address_space flag [shares address_space flags member with
      mapping's gfp mask] to indicate that the address space contains all
      unevictable pages.  This will provide for efficient testing of ramfs pages
      in page_evictable().
      
      Also provide wrapper functions to set/test the unevictable state to
      minimize #ifdefs in ramfs driver and any other users of this facility.
      
      Set the unevictable state on address_space structures for new ramfs
      inodes.  Test the unevictable state in page_evictable() to cull
      unevictable pages.
      
      These changes depend on [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

      Add __GFP_MOVABLE for callers to flag allocations from high memory that may be migrated · 769848c0
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      It is often known at allocation time whether a page may be migrated or not.
      This patch adds a flag called __GFP_MOVABLE and a new mask called
      GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE.  Allocations using the __GFP_MOVABLE can be either migrated
      using the page migration mechanism or reclaimed by syncing with backing
      storage and discarding.
      
      An API function very similar to alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() is added for
      __GFP_MOVABLE allocations called alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable().  The
      flags used by alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() are not changed because it would
      change the semantics of an existing API.  After this patch is applied there
      are no in-kernel users of alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() so it probably should
      be marked deprecated if this patch is merged.
      
      Note that this patch includes a minor cleanup to the use of __GFP_ZERO in
      shmem.c to keep all flag modifications to inode->mapping in the
      shmem_dir_alloc() helper function.  This clean-up suggestion is courtesy of
      Hugh Dickens.
      
      Additional credit goes to Christoph Lameter and Linus Torvalds for shaping the
      concept.  Credit to Hugh Dickens for catching issues with shmem swap vector
      and ramfs allocations.

      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%).

      [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount · 454e2398
      David Howells 提交于
      Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
      permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
      
      The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
      pointers.  For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
      which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
      superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
      
      The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
      superblock pointer.
      
      This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
      points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing.  In
      such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
      and mnt_sb would be set directly.
      
      The patch also makes the following changes:
      
       (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
           pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
           very little.
      
       (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
           normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
           always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
      
       (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
           dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
      
           This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
           aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
           currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
           and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
           dentries being left unculled.
      
           However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
           implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
           simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
           inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
           with child trees.
      
           [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
      
       (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
           changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

      [PATCH] NOMMU: Provide shared-writable mmap support on ramfs · 642fb4d1
      David Howells 提交于
      The attached patch makes ramfs support shared-writable mmaps by:
      
       (1) Attempting to perform a contiguous block allocation to the requested size
           when truncate attempts to increase the file from zero size, such as
           happens when:
      
      	fd = shm_open("/file/on/ramfs", ...):
      	ftruncate(fd, size_requested);
      	addr = mmap(NULL, subsize, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE|PROT_EXEC, MAP_SHARED,
      		    fd, offset);
      
       (2) Permitting any shared-writable mapping over any contiguous set of extant
           pages. get_unmapped_area() will return the address into the actual ramfs
           pages. The mapping may start anywhere and be of any size, but may not go
           over the end of file. Multiple mappings may overlap in any way.
      
       (3) Not permitting a file to be shrunk if it would truncate any shared
           mappings (private mappings are copied).
      
      Thus this patch provides support for POSIX shared memory on NOMMU kernels,
      with certain limitations such as there being a large enough block of pages
      available to support the allocation and it only working on directly mappable
      filesystems.
