      pipes: add a "packetized pipe" mode for writing · 9883035a
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about
      individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that
      as a special packetized mode.
      
      When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by
      Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous
      writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own.  The pipe
      buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn
      will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw
      away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer).
      
      End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that
      the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a
      packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at
      a time.  You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is
      sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway),
      and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of
      the packet.
      
      NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and
      writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops.  Also note that big packets will
      currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that
      happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF).
      Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to
      explicitly support bigger packets some day.
      
      The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface,
      allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes
      (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes).  But user
      space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will
      fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

        number of different people.  We think the fix might also pertain to
        other machines, as this was a BIOS bug, and they seem to travel to
        different models and manufacturers quite easily.  Other than that,
        some other reported problems fixed as well."

      Pull btrfs fixes from Chris Mason:
       "This has our collection of bug fixes.  I missed the last rc because I
        thought our patches were making NFS crash during my xfs test runs.
        Turns out it was an NFS client bug fixed by someone else while I tried
        to bisect it.
      
        All of these fixes are small, but some are fairly high impact.  The
        biggest are fixes for our mount -o remount handling, a deadlock due to
        GFP_KERNEL allocations in readdir, and a RAID10 error handling bug.
      
        This was tested against both 3.3 and Linus' master as of this morning."
