      remove nonsense force-casts from ocfs2 · 97bd7919
      Al Viro 提交于
      endianness annotations in networking code had been in place for quite a
      while; in particular, sin_port and s_addr are annotated as big-endian.
      
      Code in ocfs2 had __force casts added apparently to shut the sparse
      warnings up; of course, these days they only serve to *produce* warnings
      for no reason whatsoever...

      regression: bfs endianness bug · 7e46aa5c
      Al Viro 提交于
      BFS_FILEBLOCKS() expects struct bfs_inode * (on-disk data, with little-
      endian fields), not struct bfs_inode_info * (in-core stuff, with host-
      endian ones).
      
      It's a macro and fields with the right names are present in
      bfs_inode_info, so it compiles, but on big-endian host it gives bogus
      results.
      
      Introduced in commit f433dc56 ("Fixes to
      the BFS filesystem driver").

      proc: fix proc_dir_entry refcounting · 5a622f2d
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      Creating PDEs with refcount 0 and "deleted" flag has problems (see below).
      Switch to usual scheme:
      * PDE is created with refcount 1
      * every de_get does +1
      * every de_put() and remove_proc_entry() do -1
      * once refcount reaches 0, PDE is freed.
      
      This elegantly fixes at least two following races (both observed) without
      introducing new locks, without abusing old locks, without spreading
      lock_kernel():
      
      1) PDE leak
      
      remove_proc_entry			de_put
      -----------------			------
      			[refcnt = 1]
      if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
      					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
      						if (de->deleted)
      							/* also not taken! */
      							free_proc_entry(de);
      else
      	de->deleted = 1;
      		[refcount=0, deleted=1]
      
      2) use after free
      
      remove_proc_entry			de_put
      -----------------			------
      			[refcnt = 1]
      
      					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
      if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
      	free_proc_entry(de);
      						/* boom! */
      						if (de->deleted)
      							free_proc_entry(de);

      Also, remove broken usage of ->deleted from reiserfs: if sget() succeeds,
      module is already pinned and remove_proc_entry() can't happen => nobody
      can mark PDE deleted.
      
      Dummy proc root in netns code is not marked with refcount 1. AFAICS, we
      never get it, it's just for proper /proc/net removal. I double checked
      CLONE_NETNS continues to work.
      
      Patch survives many hours of modprobe/rmmod/cat loops without new bugs
      which can be attributed to refcounting.

      jbd: Fix assertion failure in fs/jbd/checkpoint.c · d4beaf4a
      Jan Kara 提交于
      Before we start committing a transaction, we call
      __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back
      buffers.
      
      If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some
      buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction
      because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some
      assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :).
      
      We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a
      transaction in T_FINISHED state.  The locking there is subtle though (as
      everywhere in JBD ;().  We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a
      subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end
      of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction
      can get to T_FINISHED state.
      
      Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary -
      checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a
      transaction must be already committed to be processed or from
      __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus
      transaction cannot change state either.  Better be safe if something
      changes in future...

      aio: only account I/O wait time in read_events if there are active requests · e00ba3da
      Jeff Moyer 提交于
      On 2.6.24, top started showing 100% iowait on one CPU when a UML instance was
      running (but completely idle).  The UML code sits in io_getevents waiting for
      an event to be submitted and completed.
      
      Fix this by checking ctx->reqs_active before scheduling to determine whether
      or not we are waiting for I/O.

      [NETNS]: Fix /proc/net breakage · 2b1e300a
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support
      for /proc/net.  Currently things work but there are odd details visible to
      user space, even when we have a single network namespace.
      
      Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just
      modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the
      network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the
      current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method.
      
      To accomplish that this patch:
      - introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to
        be returned from proc_lookup.
      - Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic
      - Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries.
      
      As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can
      go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code
      that uses the shadow_proc method.
