reiserfs_invalidatepage will refuse to free pages if they have been logged in data=journal mode, or were pinned down by a data=ordered operation. For data=journal, this is fairly easy to trigger just with fsx-linux, and it results in a large number of pages hanging around on the LRUs with page->mapping == NULL. Calling try_to_free_buffers when reiserfs decides it is done with the page allows it to be freed earlier, and with much less VM thrashing. Lock ordering rules mean that reiserfs can't call lock_page when it is releasing the buffers, so TestSetPageLocked is used instead. Contention on these pages should be rare, so it should be sufficient most of the time. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Cc: "Vladimir V.

Introduce is_owner_or_cap() macro in fs.h, and convert over relevant users to it. This is done because we want to avoid bugs in the future where we check for only effective fsuid of the current task against a file's owning uid, without simultaneously checking for CAP_FOWNER as well, thus violating its semantics. [ XFS uses special macros and structures, and in general looked ... untouchable, so we leave it alone -- but it has been looked over. ] The (current->fsuid != inode->i_uid) check in generic_permission() and exec_permission_lite() is left alone, because those operations are covered by CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE and CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH. Similarly operations falling under the purview of CAP_CHOWN and CAP_LEASE are also left alone.

Some users have been having problems with utilities like cp or dd dumping core when they try to copy a file that's too large for the destination filesystem (typically, > 4gb). Apparently, some defunct standards required SIGXFSZ to be sent in such circumstances, but SUS only requires/allows it for when a written file exceeds the process's resource limits. I'd like to limit SIGXFSZs to the bare minimum required by SUS.

由 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.

Ensure pages are uptodate after returning from read_cache_page, which allows us to cut out most of the filesystem-internal PageUptodate calls. I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7 possible use-before uptodate in hfs, 2 in hfsplus, 1 in jfs, a few in ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in block2mtd. All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return with a !uptodate page.

The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read lock. As a result, if either of these operations run in parallel, a race condition exists where the xattr_root will end up being cached twice, which results in the leaking of a reference and a BUG() on umount. This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(), into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around the entire critical section.

This patch fixes a confusion reiserfs has for a long time. On release file operation reiserfs used to try to pack file data stored in last incomplete page of some files into metadata blocks. After packing the page got cleared with clear_page_dirty. It did not take into account that the page may be mmaped into other process's address space. Recent replacement for clear_page_dirty cancel_dirty_page found the confusion with sanity check that page has to be not mapped. The patch fixes the confusion by making reiserfs avoid tail packing if an inode was ever mmapped. reiserfs_mmap and reiserfs_file_release are serialized with mutex in reiserfs specific inode. reiserfs_mmap locks the mutex and sets a bit in reiserfs specific inode flags. reiserfs_file_release checks the bit having the mutex locked. If bit is set - tail packing is avoided. This eliminates a possibility that mmapped page gets cancel_page_dirty-ed.

[...] This could happen in such a situation : In reiserfs/inode.c: reiserfs_get_block() :: if (repeat == NO_DISK_SPACE || repeat == QUOTA_EXCEEDED) { /* restart the transaction to give the journal a chance to free ** some blocks. releases the path, so we have to go back to ** research if we succeed on the second try */ SB_JOURNAL(inode->i_sb)->j_next_async_flush = 1; -->> retval = restart_transaction(th, inode, &path); <<-- We are supposed to release the path, no matter we succeed or fail. But if the th->refcount is > 1, the path is still valid. And, if (retval) goto failure; repeat = _allocate_block(th, block, inode, &allocated_block_nr, NULL, create); If the above allocate_block fails with NO_DISK_SPACE or QUOTA_EXCEEDED, we would have path which is not released. if (repeat != NO_DISK_SPACE && repeat != QUOTA_EXCEEDED) { goto research; } if (repeat == QUOTA_EXCEEDED) retval = -EDQUOT; else retval = -ENOSPC; goto failure; [...] failure: [...] reiserfs_check_path(&path); << Panics here ! Attached here is a patch which could fix the issue. fix reiserfs/inode.c : restart_transaction() to release the path in all cases. The restart_transaction() doesn't release the path when the the journal handle has a refcount > 1. This would trigger a reiserfs_panic() if we encounter an -ENOSPC / -EDQUOT in reiserfs_get_block().
