      vfs: use lockref_get_not_zero() for optimistic lockless dget_parent() · df3d0bbc
      Waiman Long 提交于
      A valid parent pointer is always going to have a non-zero reference
      count, but if we look up the parent optimistically without locking, we
      have to protect against the (very unlikely) race against renaming
      changing the parent from under us.
      
      We do that by using lockref_get_not_zero(), and then re-checking the
      parent pointer after getting a valid reference.
      
      [ This is a re-implementation of a chunk from the original patch by
        Waiman Long: "dcache: Enable lockless update of dentry's refcount".
        I've completely rewritten the patch-series and split it up, but I'm
        attributing this part to Waiman as it's close enough to his earlier
        patch  - Linus ]

      lockref: add 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper · b3abd802
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This behaves like "lockref_get_not_zero()", but instead of doing nothing
      if the count was zero, it returns with the lock held.
      
      This allows callers to revalidate the lockref-protected data structure
      if required even if the count was zero to begin with, and possibly
      increment the count if it passes muster.
      
      In particular, the dentry code wants this when it wants to turn an
      RCU-protected dentry into a stable refcounted one: if the dentry count
      it zero, but the sequence number still validates the dentry, we can take
      a reference to it.

      vfs: make the dentry cache use the lockref infrastructure · 98474236
      Waiman Long 提交于
      This just replaces the dentry count/lock combination with the lockref
      structure that contains both a count and a spinlock, and does the
      mechanical conversion to use the lockref infrastructure.
      
      There are no semantic changes here, it's purely syntactic.  The
      reference lockref implementation uses the spinlock exactly the same way
      that the old dcache code did, and the bulk of this patch is just
      expanding the internal "d_count" use in the dcache code to use
      "d_lockref.count" instead.
      
      This is purely preparation for the real change to make the reference
      count updates be lockless during the 3.12 merge window.
      
      [ As with the previous commit, this is a rewritten version of a concept
        originally from Waiman, so credit goes to him, blame for any errors
        goes to me.
      
        Waiman's patch had some semantic differences for taking advantage of
        the lockless update in dget_parent(), while this patch is
        intentionally a pure search-and-replace change with no semantic
        changes.     - Linus ]

      Add new lockref infrastructure reference implementation · 0f8f2aaa
      Waiman Long 提交于
      This introduces a new "lockref" structure that supports the concept of
      lockless updates of reference counts that still honor an attached
      spinlock.
      
      NOTE! This reference implementation is not the optimized lockless
      version, rather it is the fallback implementation using standard
      spinlocks.  The actual optimized versions will be merged into 3.12, but
      I wanted to get the infrastructure in place and document the new
      interfaces.
      
      [ Also note that this particular commit is drastically cut-down minimal
        version of the original patch by Waiman.  In order to properly credit
        the original author I'm marking Waiman as the author here, but in the
        end this patch bears little resemblance to the patch by Waiman.  So
        blame any errors on me editing things down to the point where I can
        introduce the infrastructure before the merge window for 3.12 actually
        opens.     - Linus ]

      Revert "fs: Allow unprivileged linkat(..., AT_EMPTY_PATH) aka flink" · f0cc6ffb
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit bb2314b4.
      
      It wasn't necessarily wrong per se, but we're still busily discussing
      the exact details of this all, so I'm going to revert it for now.
      
      It's true that you can already do flink() through /proc and that flink()
      isn't new.  But as Brad Spengler points out, some secure environments do
      not mount proc, and flink adds a new interface that can avoid path
      lookup of the source for those kinds of environments.
      
      We may re-do this (and even mark it for stable backporting back in 3.11
      and possibly earlier) once the whole discussion about the interface is done.

        } while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);
      
      Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
      same number of times for the same sb_bio_event.  Otherwise,
      wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

      nilfs2: remove double bio_put() in nilfs_end_bio_write() for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error · 2df37a19
      Vyacheslav Dubeyko 提交于
      Remove double call of bio_put() in nilfs_end_bio_write() for the case of
      BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection.  The issue was found by Dan Carpenter
      and he suggests first version of the fix too.

      drivers/platform/olpc/olpc-ec.c: initialise earlier · 93dbc1b3
      Daniel Drake 提交于
      Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g.  olpc-battery) assume
      that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during
      probe.  Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other
      drivers try to use it.  This was the case until it was recently moved
      out of arch/x86 and restructured around commits ac250415 ("Platform:
      OLPC: turn EC driver into a platform_driver") and 85f90cf6 ("x86:
      OLPC: switch over to using new EC driver on x86").
      
      Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the
      previous behaviour.
      
      Fixes a regression introduced in Linux-3.6 where various drivers such as
      olpc-battery and olpc-xo1-sci failed to load due to an inability to
      communicate with the EC.  The user-visible effect was a lack of battery
      monitoring, missing ebook/lid switch input devices, etc.
