      Fix races around the access to ->s_options · 2a32cebd
      Al Viro 提交于
      Put generic_show_options read access to s_options under rcu_read_lock,
      split save_mount_options() into "we are setting it the first time"
      (uses in foo_fill_super()) and "we are relacing and freeing the old one",
      synchronize_rcu() before kfree() in the latter.

      fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix · 54566b2c
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      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).

      mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create(). · 20c2df83
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
      c59def9f change. They've been
      BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
      either.
      
      This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
      completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
      about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
      or the documentation references).

      Detach sched.h from mm.h · e8edc6e0
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
      function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
      mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
      
      This patch
      a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
      b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
      c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
      d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
      e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
         getting them indirectly
      
      Net result is:
      a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
         they don't need sched.h
      b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
         on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
         after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).
      
      Cross-compile tested on
      
      	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
      	alpha alpha-up
      	arm
      	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig

      slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag · 50953fe9
      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.
