      fsnotify: use dget_parent · 4d4eb366
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Use dget_parent instead of opencoding it.  This simplifies the code, but
      more importanly prepares for the more complicated locking for a parent
      dget in the dcache scale patch series.
      
      It means we do grab a reference to the parent now if need to be watched,
      but not with the specified mask.  If this turns out to be a problem
      we'll have to revisit it, but for now let's keep as much as possible
      dcache internals inside dcache.[ch].

      fsnotify: drop two useless bools in the fnsotify main loop · 92b4678e
      Eric Paris 提交于
      The fsnotify main loop has 2 bools which indicated if we processed the
      inode or vfsmount mark in that particular pass through the loop.  These
      bool can we replaced with the inode_group and vfsmount_group variables
      and actually make the code a little easier to understand.

      fsnotify: fix list walk order · f72adfd5
      Eric Paris 提交于
      Marks were stored on the inode and vfsmonut mark list in order from
      highest memory address to lowest memory address.  The code to walk those
      lists thought they were in order from lowest to highest with
      unpredictable results when trying to match up marks from each.  It was
      possible that extra events would be sent to userspace when inode
      marks ignoring events wouldn't get matched with the vfsmount marks.
      
      This problem only affected fanotify when using both vfsmount and inode
      marks simultaneously.

      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.

      inotify: use GFP_NOFS under potential memory pressure · f44aebcc

      inotify can have a watchs removed under filesystem reclaim.

      ---------------------------------
      inconsistent {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} -> {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} usage.

      Two things are needed to fix this.  First we need a method to tell
      fsnotify_create_event() to use GFP_NOFS and second we need to stop using
      one global IN_IGNORED event and allocate them one at a time.  This solves
      current issues with multiple IN_IGNORED on a queue having tail drop
      problems and simplifies the allocations since we don't have to worry about
      two tasks opperating on the IGNORED event concurrently.
