      [PATCH] 2TB files: st_blocks is invalid when calling stat64 · abcb6c9f
      由 Takashi Sato 提交于 
      This patch series fixes the following problems on 32 bits architecture.

o stat64 returns the lower 32 bits of blocks, although userland st_blocks
  has 64 bits, because i_blocks has only 32 bits.  The ioctl with FIOQSIZE has
  the same problem.

o As Dave Kleikamp said, making >2TB file on JFS results in writing an
  invalid block number to disk inode.  The cause is the same as above too.

o In generic quota code dquot_transfer(), the file usage is calculated from
  i_blocks via inode_get_bytes().  If the file is over 2TB, the change of
  usage is less than expected.  The cause is the same as above too.

o As Trond Myklebust said, statfs64's entries related to blocks are invalid
  on statfs64 for a network filesystem which has more than 2^32-1 blocks with
  CONFIG_LBD disabled.  [PATCH 3/3]

We made patches to fix problems that occur when handling a large filesystem
and a large file.  It was discussed on the mails titled "stat64 for over 2TB
file returned invalid st_blocks".

      [PATCH] POLLRDHUP/EPOLLRDHUP handling for half-closed devices notifications · f348d70a
      由 Davide Libenzi 提交于 
      Implement the half-closed devices notifiation, by adding a new POLLRDHUP
(and its alias EPOLLRDHUP) bit to the existing poll/select sets.  Since the
existing POLLHUP handling, that does not report correctly half-closed
devices, was feared to be changed, this implementation leaves the current
POLLHUP reporting unchanged and simply add a new bit that is set in the few
places where it makes sense.  The same thing was discussed and conceptually
agreed quite some time ago:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/12/116

Since this new event bit is added to the existing Linux poll infrastruture,
even the existing poll/select system calls will be able to use it.  As far
as the existing POLLHUP handling, the patch leaves it as is.  The
pollrdhup-2.6.16.rc5-0.10.diff defines the POLLRDHUP for all the existing
archs and sets the bit in the six relevant files.  The other attached diff
is the simple change required to sys/epoll.h to add the EPOLLRDHUP
definition.

There is "a stupid program" to test POLLRDHUP delivery here:

 http://www.xmailserver.org/pollrdhup-test.c

It tests poll(2), but since the delivery is same epoll(2) will work equally.

      [PATCH] madvise MADV_DONTFORK/MADV_DOFORK · f8225661
      由 Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于 
      Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the
user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by
get_user_pages).  This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent
writes to that page.  As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of
get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into
this page after the COW.  In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting
the realtime/security benefits of mlock.

In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into
user pages all the time.

This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited
across fork.  Useful e.g.  for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these
pages.  Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks
by cutting large areas out of consideration.

      [PATCH] atomic_long_t & include/asm-generic/atomic.h V2 · d3cb4871
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit
platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h).  We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall
back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms.

The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive
use of atomic64.

This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in
asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type.  Its 32 bits
on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms.

Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.

      [PATCH] madvise(MADV_REMOVE): remove pages from tmpfs shm backing store · f6b3ec23
      由 Badari Pulavarty 提交于 
      Here is the patch to implement madvise(MADV_REMOVE) - which frees up a
given range of pages & its associated backing store.  Current
implementation supports only shmfs/tmpfs and other filesystems return
-ENOSYS.

"Some app allocates large tmpfs files, then when some task quits and some
client disconnect, some memory can be released.  However the only way to
release tmpfs-swap is to MADV_REMOVE". - Andrea Arcangeli

Databases want to use this feature to drop a section of their bufferpool
(shared memory segments) - without writing back to disk/swap space.

This feature is also useful for supporting hot-plug memory on UML.

Concerns raised by Andrew Morton:

- "We have no plan for holepunching!  If we _do_ have such a plan (or
  might in the future) then what would the API look like?  I think
  sys_holepunch(fd, start, len), so we should start out with that."

- Using madvise is very weird, because people will ask "why do I need to
  mmap my file before I can stick a hole in it?"

- None of the other madvise operations call into the filesystem in this
  manner.  A broad question is: is this capability an MM operation or a
  filesytem operation?  truncate, for example, is a filesystem operation
  which sometimes has MM side-effects.  madvise is an mm operation and with
  this patch, it gains FS side-effects, only they're really, really
  significant ones."

Comments:

- Andrea suggested the fs operation too but then it's more efficient to
  have it as a mm operation with fs side effects, because they don't
  immediatly know fd and physical offset of the range.  It's possible to
  fixup in userland and to use the fs operation but it's more expensive,
  the vmas are already in the kernel and we can use them.

Short term plan &  Future Direction:

- We seem to need this interface only for shmfs/tmpfs files in the short
  term.  We have to add hooks into the filesystem for correctness and
  completeness.  This is what this patch does.

- In the future, plan is to support both fs and mmap apis also.  This
  also involves (other) filesystem specific functions to be implemented.

- Current patch doesn't support VM_NONLINEAR - which can be addressed in
  the future.
