cifs_revalidate is renamed to cifs_revalidate_dentry as a later patch will add a by-filehandle variant. Add a new "invalid_mapping" flag to the cifsInodeInfo that indicates that the pagecache is considered invalid. Add a new routine to check inode attributes whenever they're updated and set that flag if the inode has changed on the server. cifs_revalidate_dentry is then changed to just update the attrcache if needed and then to zap the pagecache if it's not valid. There are some other behavior changes in here as well. Open files are now allowed to have their caches invalidated. I see no reason why we'd want to keep stale data around just because a file is open. Also, cifs_revalidate_cache uses the server_eof for revalidating the file size since that should more closely match the size of the file on the server.

While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems, since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to vfs_fsync_range and when not. This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers. This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe. We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path to make sure we always get these sane options. Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

The patch to remove cifs_init_private introduced a locking imbalance. It didn't remove the leftover list addition code and the unlocking in that function. cifs_new_fileinfo does the list addition now, so there should be no need to do it outside of that function. pCifsInode will never be NULL, so we don't need to check for that. This patch also gets rid of the ugly locking and unlocking across function calls.

This is the fourth respin of the patch to convert oplock breaks to use the slow_work facility. A customer of ours was testing a backport of one of the earlier patchsets, and hit a "Busy inodes after umount..." problem. An oplock break job had raced with a umount, and the superblock got torn down and its memory reused. When the oplock break job tried to dereference the inode->i_sb, the kernel oopsed. This patchset has the oplock break job hold an inode and vfsmount reference until the oplock break completes. With this, there should be no need to take a tcon reference (the vfsmount implicitly holds one already). Currently, when an oplock break comes in there's a chance that the oplock break job won't occur if the allocation of the oplock_q_entry fails. There are also some rather nasty races in the allocation and handling these structs. Rather than allocating oplock queue entries when an oplock break comes in, add a few extra fields to the cifsFileInfo struct. Get rid of the dedicated cifs_oplock_thread as well and queue the oplock break job to the slow_work thread pool. This approach also has the advantage that the oplock break jobs can potentially run in parallel rather than be serialized like they are today.

cifs_posix_open takes a "poplock" argument that's intended to be used in the actual posix open call to set the "Flags" field. It ignores this value however and declares an "oplock" parameter on the stack that it passes uninitialized to the CIFSPOSIXOpen function. Not only does this mean that the oplock request flags are bogus, but the result that's expected to be in that variable is unchanged. Fix this, and also clean up the type of the oplock parameter used. Since it's expected to be __u32, we should use that everywhere and not implicitly cast it from a signed type.

FreeXid() along with freeing Xid does add a cifsFYI debug message that prints rc (return code) as well. In some code paths where we set/return error code after calling FreeXid(), incorrect error code is being printed when cifsFYI is enabled. This could be misleading in few cases. For eg. In cifs_open() if cifs_fill_filedata() returns a valid pointer to cifsFileInfo, FreeXid() prints rc=-13 whereas 0 is actually being returned. Fix this by setting rc before calling FreeXid(). Basically convert FreeXid(xid); rc = -ERR; return -ERR; => FreeXid(xid); return rc; [Note that Christoph would like to replace the GetXid/FreeXid calls, which are primarily used for debugging. This seems like a good longer term goal, but although there is an alternative tracing facility, there are no examples yet available that I know of that we can use (yet) to convert this cifs function entry/exit logging, and for creating an identifier that we can use to correlate all dmesg log entries for a particular vfs operation (ie identify all log entries for a particular vfs request to cifs: e.g. a particular close or read or write or byte range lock call ... and just using the thread id is harder). Eventually when a replacement for this is available (e.g. when NFS switches over and various samples to look at in other file systems) we can remove the GetXid/FreeXid macro but in the meantime multiple people use this run time configurable logging all the time for debugging, and Suresh's patch fixes a problem which made it harder to notice some low memory problems in the log so it is worthwhile to fix this problem until a better logging approach is able to be used] Acked-by: NJeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NSuresh Jayaraman <sjayaraman@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NSteve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

The first two didn't handle update the size correctly when writes that didn't start at the eof were done. The first patch also didn't update the size correctly when it explicitly set via truncate(). This patch adds code to track the client's current understanding of the size of the file on the server separate from the i_size, and then to use this info to semi-intelligently set the timeout for writes past the EOF.

If this mount option is set, when an application does an fsync call then the cifs client does not send an SMB Flush to the server (to force the server to write all dirty data for this file immediately to disk), although cifs still sends all dirty (cached) file data to the server and waits for the server to respond to the write write. Since SMB Flush can be very slow, and some servers may be reliable enough (to risk delaying slightly flushing the data to disk on the server), turning on this option may be useful to improve performance for applications that fsync too much, at a small risk of server crash. If this mount option is not set, by default cifs will send an SMB flush request (and wait for a response) on every fsync call. Signed-off-by: NSteve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

In contrast to the now-obsolete smbfs, cifs does not send SMB_COM_FLUSH in response to an explicit fsync(2) to guarantee that all volatile data is written to stable storage on the server side, provided the server honors the request (which, to my knowledge, is true for Windows and Samba with 'strict sync' enabled). This patch modifies the cifs_fsync implementation to restore the fsync-behavior of smbfs by triggering SMB_COM_FLUSH after sending outstanding data on the client side to the server.

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could cause filesystem deadlocks. The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS anyway, so turn that into a single flag. Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there, change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive and does away with random leading underscores). This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a random example).

Some applications/subsystems require mandatory byte range locks (as is used for Windows/DOS/OS2 etc). Sending advisory (posix style) byte range lock requests (instead of mandatory byte range locks) can lead to problems for these applications (which expect that other clients be prevented from writing to portions of the file which they have locked and are updating). This mount option allows mounting cifs with the new mount option "forcemand" (or "forcemandatorylock") in order to have the cifs client use mandatory byte range locks (ie SMB/CIFS/Windows/NTFS style locks) rather than posix byte range lock requests, even if the server would support posix byte range lock requests. This has no effect if the server does not support the CIFS Unix Extensions (since posix style locks require support for the CIFS Unix Extensions), but for mounts to Samba servers this can be helpful for Wine and applications that require mandatory byte range locks.

Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed. In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages() asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time. Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling pagevec_lookup_tag() again. If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing with them. This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about to be closed. This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so that none get skipped.

In preparation for Jeff's big umount/mount fixes to remove the possibility of various races in cifs mount and linked list handling of sessions, sockets and tree connections, this patch cleans up some repetitive code in cifs_mount, and addresses a problem with ses->status and tcon->tidStatus in which we were overloading the "need_reconnect" state with other status in that field. So the "need_reconnect" flag has been broken out from those two state fields (need reconnect was not mutually exclusive from some of the other possible tid and ses states). In addition, a few exit cases in cifs_mount were cleaned up, and a problem with a tcon flag (for lease support) was not being set consistently for the 2nd mount of the same share CC: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> CC: Shirish Pargaonkar <shirishp@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NSteve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

When the CIFS client goes to write out pages, it needs to pick a filehandle to write to. find_writeable_file however just picks the first filehandle that it finds. This can cause problems when a lock is issued against a particular filehandle and we pick a different filehandle to write to. This patch tries to avert this situation by having find_writable_file prefer filehandles that have a pid that matches the current task.

The direct I/O write codepath for CIFS is done through cifs_user_write(). That function does not currently call generic_write_checks() so the file position isn't being properly set when the file is opened with O_APPEND. It's also not doing the other "normal" checks that should be done for a write call. The problem is currently that when you open a file with O_APPEND on a mount with the directio mount option, the file position is set to the beginning of the file. This makes any subsequent writes clobber the data in the file starting at the beginning. This seems to fix the problem in cursory testing. It is, however important to note that NFS disallows the combination of (O_DIRECT|O_APPEND). If my understanding is correct, the concern is races with multiple clients appending to a file clobbering each others' data. Since the write model for CIFS and NFS is pretty similar in this regard, CIFS is probably subject to the same sort of races. What's unclear to me is why this is a particular problem with O_DIRECT and not with buffered writes... Regardless, disallowing O_APPEND on an entire mount is probably not reasonable, so we'll probably just have to deal with it and reevaluate this flag combination when we get proper support for O_DIRECT. In the meantime this patch at least fixes the existing problem. Signed-off-by: NJeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Cc: Stable Tree <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NSteve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

cifs_convert_flags returns 0x20197 in the default case. It's not immediately evident where that number comes from, so change it to be an or'ed set of flags. The compiler will boil it down anyway. (Thanks to Guenter Kukkukk for clarifying the flags). Signed-off-by: NSteve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
