      vfs: move dentry_cmp from <linux/dcache.h> to fs/dcache.c · 5483f18e
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      It's only used inside fs/dcache.c, and we're going to play games with it
      for the word-at-a-time patches.  This time we really don't even want to
      export it, because it really is an internal function to fs/dcache.c, and
      has been since it was introduced.
      
      Having it in that extremely hot header file (it's included in pretty
      much everything, thanks to <linux/fs.h>) is a disaster for testing
      different versions, and is utterly pointless.
      
      We really should have some kind of header file diet thing, where we
      figure out which parts of header files are really better off private and
      only result in more expensive compiles.

      autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64 · a32744d4
      Ian Kent 提交于
      When the autofs protocol version 5 packet type was added in commit
      5c0a32fc ("autofs4: add new packet type for v5 communications"), it
      obvously tried quite hard to be word-size agnostic, and uses explicitly
      sized fields that are all correctly aligned.
      
      However, with the final "char name[NAME_MAX+1]" array at the end, the
      actual size of the structure ends up being not very well defined:
      because the struct isn't marked 'packed', doing a "sizeof()" on it will
      align the size of the struct up to the biggest alignment of the members
      it has.
      
      And despite all the members being the same, the alignment of them is
      different: a "__u64" has 4-byte alignment on x86-32, but native 8-byte
      alignment on x86-64.  And while 'NAME_MAX+1' ends up being a nice round
      number (256), the name[] array starts out a 4-byte aligned.
      
      End result: the "packed" size of the structure is 300 bytes: 4-byte, but
      not 8-byte aligned.
      
      As a result, despite all the fields being in the same place on all
      architectures, sizeof() will round up that size to 304 bytes on
      architectures that have 8-byte alignment for u64.
      
      Note that this is *not* a problem for 32-bit compat mode on POWER, since
      there __u64 is 8-byte aligned even in 32-bit mode.  But on x86, 32-bit
      and 64-bit alignment is different for 64-bit entities, and as a result
      the structure that has exactly the same layout has different sizes.
      
      So on x86-64, but no other architecture, we will just subtract 4 from
      the size of the structure when running in a compat task.  That way we
      will write the properly sized packet that user mode expects.
      
      Not pretty.  Sadly, this very subtle, and unnecessary, size difference
      has been encoded in user space that wants to read packets of *exactly*
      the right size, and will refuse to touch anything else.

      epoll: ep_unregister_pollwait() can use the freed pwq->whead · 971316f0
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      signalfd_cleanup() ensures that ->signalfd_wqh is not used, but
      this is not enough. eppoll_entry->whead still points to the memory
      we are going to free, ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue()
      is obviously unsafe.
      
      Change ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) to set eppoll_entry->whead = NULL,
      change ep_unregister_pollwait() to check pwq->whead != NULL under
      rcu_read_lock() before remove_wait_queue(). We add the new helper,
      ep_remove_wait_queue(), for this.
      
      This works because sighand_cachep is SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and because
      ->signalfd_wqh is initialized in sighand_ctor(), not in copy_sighand.
      ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue() can play with already
      freed and potentially reused ->sighand, but this is fine. This memory
      must have the valid ->signalfd_wqh until rcu_read_unlock().

      epoll: introduce POLLFREE to flush ->signalfd_wqh before kfree() · d80e731e
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review.
      It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh.
      See the next change.
      
      epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything
      f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue
      can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case
      of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand
      which is not connected to the file.
      
      This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for
      epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the
      necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in
      eventpoll.
      
      __cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if
      ->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup()
      helper.
      
      ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list).
      This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you
      share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you
      should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do
      not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with
      epoll.
      
      The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish
      the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL)
      returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does
      EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd
      has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread.
      
      In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms.
      It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll
      locks, this seems to be true.
      
      Note:
      
      	- we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll()
      	  is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE.
      
      	- signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE,
      	  we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to
      	  make sure it can't be "lost".

      Restore direct_io / truncate locking API · 37fbf4bf
      Anton Altaparmakov 提交于
      With kernel 3.1, Christoph removed i_alloc_sem and replaced it with
      calls (namely inode_dio_wait() and inode_dio_done()) which are
      EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() thus they cannot be used by non-GPL file systems and
      further inode_dio_wait() was pushed from notify_change() into the file
      system ->setattr() method but no non-GPL file system can make this call.
      
      That means non-GPL file systems cannot exist any more unless they do not
      use any VFS functionality related to reading/writing as far as I can
      tell or at least as long as they want to implement direct i/o.
      
      Both Linus and Al (and others) have said on LKML that this breakage of
      the VFS API should not have happened and that the change was simply
      missed as it was not documented in the change logs of the patches that
      did those changes.
      
      This patch changes the two function exports in question to be
      EXPORT_SYMBOL() thus restoring the VFS API as it used to be - accessible
      for all modules.
      
      Christoph, who introduced the two functions and exported them GPL-only
      is CC-ed on this patch to give him the opportunity to object to the
      symbols being changed in this manner if he did indeed intend them to be
      GPL-only and does not want them to become available to all modules.
