      mm: thp: fix /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE and vm_flags cleanups · 78f11a25
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      The huge_memory.c THP page fault was allowed to run if vm_ops was null
      (which would succeed for /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE, as the f_op->mmap wouldn't
      setup a special vma->vm_ops and it would fallback to regular anonymous
      memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file
      not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file).
      
      So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use
      THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to
      prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set).
      
      After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter
      in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case.  It doesn't replace the vm_file
      check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP
      under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should
      only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when
      vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration).  So I tend
      to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might
      have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite
      anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid.
      The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described
      by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

      NFSv4: Ensure we request the ordinary fileid when doing readdirplus · 28331a46
      Trond Myklebust 提交于
      When readdir() returns a directory entry for the root of a mounted
      filesystem, Linux follows the old convention of returning the inode
      number of the covered directory (despite newer versions of POSIX declaring
      that this is a bug).
      To ensure this continues to work, the NFSv4 readdir implementation requests
      the 'mounted-on-fileid' from the server.
      
      However, readdirplus also needs to instantiate an inode for this entry, and
      for that, we also need to request the real fileid as per this patch.

      vfs: get rid of insane dentry hashing rules · dea3667b
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The dentry hashing rules have been really quite complicated for a long
      while, in odd ways.  That made functions like __d_drop() very fragile
      and non-obvious.
      
      In particular, whether a dentry was hashed or not was indicated with an
      explicit DCACHE_UNHASHED bit.  That's despite the fact that the hash
      abstraction that the dentries use actually have a 'is this entry hashed
      or not' model (which is a simple test of the 'pprev' pointer).
      
      The reason that was done is because we used the normal 'is this entry
      unhashed' model to mark whether the dentry had _ever_ been hashed in the
      dentry hash tables, and that logic goes back many years (commit
      b3423415: "dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentries").
      
      That, in turn, meant that __d_drop had totally different unhashing logic
      for the dentry hash table case and for the anonymous dcache case,
      because in order to use the "is this dentry hashed" logic as a flag for
      whether it had ever been on the RCU hash table, we had to unhash such a
      dentry differently so that we'd never think that it wasn't 'unhashed'
      and wouldn't be free'd correctly.
      
      That's just insane.  It made the logic really hard to follow, when there
      were two different kinds of "unhashed" states, and one of them (the one
      that used "list_bl_unhashed()") really had nothing at all to do with
      being unhashed per se, but with a very subtle lifetime rule instead.
      
      So turn all of it around, and make it logical.
      
      Instead of having a DENTRY_UNHASHED bit in d_flags to indicate whether
      the dentry is on the hash chains or not, use the hash chain unhashed
      logic for that.  Suddenly "d_unhashed()" just uses "list_bl_unhashed()",
      and everything makes sense.
      
      And for the lifetime rule, just use an explicit DENTRY_RCUACCEES bit.
      If we ever insert the dentry into the dentry hash table so that it is
      visible to RCU lookup, we mark it DENTRY_RCUACCESS to show that it now
      needs the RCU lifetime rules.  Now suddently that test at dentry free
      time makes sense too.
      
      And because unhashing now is sane and doesn't depend on where the dentry
      got unhashed from (because the dentry hash chain details doesn't have
      some subtle side effects), we can re-unify the __d_drop() logic and use
      common code for the unhashing.
      
      Also fix one more open-coded hash chain bit_spin_lock() that I missed in
      the previous chain locking cleanup commit.

      Input: add KEY_IMAGES specifically for AL Image Browser · ba6a078b
      Jarod Wilson 提交于
      Many media center remotes have buttons intended for jumping straight to
      one type of media browser or another -- commonly, images/photos/pictures,
      audio/music, television, and movies. At present, remotes with an images
      or photos or pictures button use any number of different keycodes which
      sort of maybe fit. I've seen at least KEY_MEDIA, KEY_CAMERA,
      KEY_GRAPHICSEDITOR and KEY_PRESENTATION. None of those seem quite right.
      In my mind, KEY_MEDIA should be something more like a media center
      application launcher (and I'd like to standardize on that for things
      like the windows media center button on the mce remotes). KEY_CAMERA is
      used in a lot of webcams, and typically means "take a picture now".
      KEY_GRAPHICSEDITOR implies an editor, not a browser. KEY_PRESENTATION
      might be the closest fit here, if you think "photo slide show", but it
      may well be more intended for "run application in full-screen
      presentation mode" or to launch something like magicpoint, I dunno.
      And thus, I'd like to have a KEY_IMAGES, which matches the HID Usage AL
      Image Browser, the meaning of which I think is crystal-clear. I believe
      AL Audio Browser is already covered by KEY_AUDIO, and AL Movie Browser
      by KEY_VIDEO, so I'm also adding appropriate comments next to those
      keys.

      vfs: Re-introduce s_uuid in the superblock · 0bba0169
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Gaah.  When commit be85bcca reverted the export of file system uuid
      via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo, it also unintentionally removed the s_uuid
      field in struct super_block.
      
      I didn't mean to do that, since filesystems have been taught to fill it
      in (and we want to keep it for future re-introduction in the mountinfo
      file).
      
      Stupid of me. This adds it back in.

      Revert "vfs: Export file system uuid via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo" · be85bcca
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 93f1c20b.
      
      It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character
      in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the
      separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments.
      
      Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until
      that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this
      change in the kernel.
      
      Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-'
      characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug).
