      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).

      mm: fault feedback #2 · 83c54070
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into
      bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer.  This requires requires
      all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications
      should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault --
      however that would be for another patch).

      mm: fault feedback #1 · d0217ac0
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Change ->fault prototype.  We now return an int, which contains
      VM_FAULT_xxx code in the low byte, and FAULT_RET_xxx code in the next byte.
       FAULT_RET_ code tells the VM whether a page was found, whether it has been
      locked, and potentially other things.  This is not quite the way he wanted
      it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to
      arch code).
      
      This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say
      that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we
      can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were
      going to do that anyway.
      
      struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address
      is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use
      without really good reason.
      
      The page is now returned via a page pointer in the vm_fault struct.

      mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear) · 54cb8821
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes
      the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings.
      
      ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code
      should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping.  The hitch here
      is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie.  pgoff).
       But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function
      calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation).
      
      Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing
      to be doing.
      
      This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and
      ->populate and (later) ->nopfn.  Most of the old mechanism is still in place
      so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if
      everyone switches over.
      
      The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are
      subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid
      to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two.
      
      After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in
      pagecache.  Seems like a fringe functionality anyway.
      
      NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed.  This should be implemented with ->fault, and no
      users have hit mainline yet.

      mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings · d00806b1
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Fix the race between invalidate_inode_pages and do_no_page.
      
      Andrea Arcangeli identified a subtle race between invalidation of pages from
      pagecache with userspace mappings, and do_no_page.
      
      The issue is that invalidation has to shoot down all mappings to the page,
      before it can be discarded from the pagecache.  Between shooting down ptes to
      a particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache,
      do_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new
      mapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache.
      
      The most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation.
      This case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the
      file's i_size, and its truncate_count.
      
      Truncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before
      unmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the
      page if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page
      table lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl
      will serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated
      truncate_count is actually visible).
      
      Complexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the
      case where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size.  do_no_page
      can come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in
      progress (as it is when it is outside i_size).  The end result is that
      dangling (->mapping == NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file
      may be mapped into userspace with nonsense data.  Valid mappings to the same
      place will see a different page.
      
      Andrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using
      a page->flags bit.  He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but
      that was initially considered too heavyweight.  However, it is not a global or
      per-file lock, and the page cacheline is modified in do_no_page to increment
      _count and _mapcount anyway, so a further modification should not be a large
      performance hit.  Scalability is not an issue.
      
      This patch implements this latter approach.  ->nopage implementations return
      with the page locked if it is possible for their underlying file to be
      invalidated (in that case, they must set a special vm_flags bit to indicate
      so).  do_no_page only unlocks the page after setting up the mapping
      completely.  invalidation is excluded because it holds the page lock during
      invalidation of each page (and ensures that the page is not mapped while
      holding the lock).
      
      This also allows significant simplifications in do_no_page, because we have
      the page locked in the right place in the pagecache from the start.

      [GFS2] Remove i_mode passing from NFS File Handle · 35dcc52e
      Wendy Cheng 提交于
      GFS2 has been passing i_mode within NFS File Handle. Other than the
      wrong assumption that there is always room for this extra 16 bit value,
      the current gfs2_get_dentry doesn't really need the i_mode to work
      correctly. Note that GFS2 NFS code does go thru the same lookup code
      path as direct file access route (where the mode is obtained from name
      lookup) but gfs2_get_dentry() is coded for different purpose. It is not
      used during lookup time. It is part of the file access procedure call.
      When the call is invoked, if on-disk inode is not in-memory, it has to
      be read-in. This makes i_mode passing a useless overhead.

      This should have been part of the NFS patch #1 but somehow I missed it
      when packaging the patches. It is not a critical issue as the others (I
      hope). RHEL 5.1 31.el5 kernel runs fine without this change.
      
      Our truncate code is chopped into two parts, one for vfs inode changes
      (in vmtruncate()) and one of gfs inode (in gfs2_truncatei()). These two
      operatons are, unfortunately, not atomic. So it could happens that
      vmtruncate() succeeds (inode->i_size is changed) but gfs2_truncatei
      fails (say kernel temporarily out of memory). This would leave gfs inode
      i_di.di_size out of sync with vfs inode i_size. It will later confuse
      gfs2_commit_write() if a write is issued. Last time I checked, it will
      cause file corruption.

      There is a bug in the code which acquires multiple glocks where if the

      [GFS2] assertion failure after writing to journaled file, umount · 2332c443
      Robert Peterson 提交于
      This patch passes all my nasty tests that were causing the code to
      fail under one circumstance or another.  Here is a complete summary
      of all changes from today's git tree, in order of appearance:
      
      1. There are now separate variables for metadata buffer accounting.
      2. Variable sd_log_num_hdrs is no longer needed, since the header
         accounting is taken care of by the reserve/refund sequence.
      3. Fixed a tiny grammatical problem in a comment.
      4. Added a new function "calc_reserved" to calculate the reserved
         log space.  This isn't entirely necessary, but it has two benefits:
         First, it simplifies the gfs2_log_refund function greatly.
         Second, it allows for easier debugging because I could sprinkle the
         code with calls to this function to make sure the accounting is
         proper (by adding asserts and printks) at strategic point of the code.
      5. In log_pull_tail there apparently was a kludge to fix up the
         accounting based on a "pull" parameter.  The buffer accounting is
         now done properly, so the kludge was removed.
      6. File sync operations were making a call to gfs2_log_flush that
         writes another journal header.  Since that header was unplanned
         for (reserved) by the reserve/refund sequence, the free space had
         to be decremented so that when log_pull_tail gets called, the free
         space is be adjusted properly.  (Did I hear you call that a kludge?
         well, maybe, but a lot more justifiable than the one I removed).
      7. In the gfs2_log_shutdown code, it optionally syncs the log by
         specifying the PULL parameter to log_write_header.  I'm not sure
         this is necessary anymore.  It just seems to me there could be
         cases where shutdown is called while there are outstanding log
         buffers.
      8. In the (data)buf_lo_before_commit functions, I changed some offset
         values from being calculated on the fly to being constants.	That
         simplified some code and we might as well let the compiler do the
         calculation once rather than redoing those cycles at run time.
      9. This version has my rewritten databuf_lo_add function.
         This version is much more like its predecessor, buf_lo_add, which
         makes it easier to understand.  Again, this might not be necessary,
         but it seems as if this one works as well as the previous one,
         maybe even better, so I decided to leave it in.
      10. In databuf_lo_before_commit, a previous data corruption problem
         was caused by going off the end of the buffer.  The proper solution
         is to have the proper limit in place, rather than stopping earlier.
         (Thus my previous attempt to fix it is wrong).
         If you don't wrap the buffer, you're stopping too early and that
         causes more log buffer accounting problems.
      11. In lops.h there are two new (previously mentioned) constants for
         figuring out the data offset for the journal buffers.
      12. There are also two new functions, buf_limit and databuf_limit to
         calculate how many entries will fit in the buffer.
      13. In function gfs2_meta_wipe, it needs to distinguish between pinned
         metadata buffers and journaled data buffers for proper journal buffer
         accounting.	It can't use the JDATA gfs2_inode flag because it's
         sometimes passed the "real" inode and sometimes the "metadata
         inode" and the inode flags will be random bits in a metadata
         gfs2_inode.	It needs to base its decision on which was passed in.
