      Fix reference counting race on log buffers · 49641f1a
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      When we release the iclog, we do an atomic_dec_and_lock to determine if
      we are the last reference and need to trigger update of log headers and
      writeout.  However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to
      check if we have the last reference count there.  If we do, we release
      the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count.
      
      But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not
      atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will
      release the iclog.  That leads to a filesystem hang.
      
      Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with
      atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

      exec: fix stack excutability without PT_GNU_STACK · 96a8e13e
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
      exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
      executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
      stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
      so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.
      
      Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
      vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup.  Checking through
      our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
      so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

      ocfs2: Fix flags in ocfs2_file_lock · e988cf1c
      Mark Fasheh 提交于
      The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now
      use the fs/dlm equivalents. Unfortunately, a merge error left the new flock
      code only partially updated. This took a while to show up though, because
      the lock level constants are actually identical between o2dlm and fs/dlm.
      The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is
      eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm().

      reiserfs: discard prealloc in reiserfs_delete_inode · eb35c218
      Jeff Mahoney 提交于
      With the removal of struct file from the xattr code,
      reiserfs_file_release() isn't used anymore, so the prealloc isn't
      discarded.  This causes hangs later down the line.
      
      This patch adds it to reiserfs_delete_inode.  In most cases it will be a
      no-op due to it already having been called, but will avoid hangs with
      xattrs.

      NFS: Fix readdir cache invalidation · 2aac05a9
      Trond Myklebust 提交于
      invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte
      ranges.
      
      Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM
      pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the
      evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns
      more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry
      changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on
      page->index==0.

      9p: fix O_APPEND in legacy mode · 2e4bef41
      Eric Van Hensbergen 提交于
      The legacy protocol's open operation doesn't handle an append operation
      (it is expected that the client take care of it).  We were incorrectly
      passing the extended protocol's flag through even in legacy mode.  This
      was reported in bugzilla report #10689.  This patch fixes the problem
      by disallowing extended protocol open modes from being passed in legacy
      mode and implemented append functionality on the client side by adding
      a seek after the open.

      Properly notify block layer of sync writes · 18ce3751
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and
      then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes
      and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle
      them appropriately.
      
      This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where
      xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of
      synchronous IO in the system:
      
      INFO: task kjournald:20558 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

      [GFS2] fix gfs2 block allocation (cleaned up) · 5af4e7a0
      Benjamin Marzinski 提交于
      This patch fixes bz 450641.
      
      This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it
      renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata
      tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either
      diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first
      indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the
      inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for
      509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the
      first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the
      height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located.
      It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2
      (if it diverges from the first indirect block).
