Any attempt to open/use a bluetooth rfcomm device locks up scheduling completely on my machine. Interrupts (ping, alt-sysrq) seem to be alive, but nothing else.

There are race issues around ext[34] xattr block release code. ext[34]_xattr_release_block() checks the reference count of xattr block (h_refcount) and frees that xattr block if it is the last one reference it. Unlike ext2, the check of this counter is unprotected by any lock. ext[34]_xattr_release_block() will free the mb_cache entry before freeing that xattr block. There is a small window between the check for the re h_refcount ==1 and the call to mb_cache_entry_free(). During this small window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse it, racing a refcount updates. The xattr block will later be freed by the first inode without notice other inode is still use it. Later if that block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious problem might happen. We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid racing issue. Another place need this kind of protection is in ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in- the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it). This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time. It is possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at the same time. But both of them think they are not the last one so only decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all. We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer () as well).

struct sysfs_dirent is private to the fs/sysfs/ subtree. It is not even referenced as an opaque structure outside of that subtree. The following patch moves the declaration from include/linux/sysfs.h to fs/sysfs/sysfs.h, making it clearer that nothing else in the kernel dereferences it. I have been running this patch for years.

This problem was identified and fixed some time ago by Jeff Moyer but it fell through the cracks somehow. It is possible that a user space application could remove and re-create a directory during a request. To avoid returning a failure from lookup incorrectly when our current dentry is unhashed we need to check if another positive, hashed dentry matching this one exists and if so return it instead of a fail.

Jeff Moyer has identified a race between mount and expire. What happens is that during an expire the situation can arise that a directory is removed and another lookup is done before the expire issues a completion status to the kernel module. In this case, since the the lookup gets a new dentry, it doesn't know that there is an expire in progress and when it posts its mount request, matches the existing expire request and waits for its completion. ENOENT is then returned to user space from lookup (as the dentry passed in is now unhashed) without having performed the mount request. The solution used here is to keep track of dentrys in this unhashed state and reuse them, if possible, in order to preserve the flags. Additionally, this infrastructure will provide the framework for the reintroduction of caching of mount fails removed earlier in development.

nobh_prepare_write leaks data similarly to how simple_prepare_write did. Fix by not marking the page uptodate until nobh_commit_write time. Again, this could break weird use-cases, but none appear to exist in the tree. We can safely remove the set_page_dirty, because as the comment says, nobh_commit_write does set_page_dirty. If a filesystem wants to allocate backing store for a page dirtied via mmap, page_mkwrite is the suggested approach.

simple_prepare_write leaks uninitialised kernel data. This happens because the it leaves an uninitialised "hole" over the part of the page that the write is expected to go to. This is fine, but it then marks the page uptodate, which means a concurrent read can come in and copy the uninitialised memory into userspace before it written to. Fix it by simply marking it uptodate in simple_commit_write instead, after the hole has been filled in. This could theoretically break an fs that uses simple_prepare_write and not simple_commit_write, and that relies on the incorrect simple_prepare_write behaviour. Luckily, none of those exists in the tree.

While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is exclusive and/or read-only. The vacfs views of venti content addressable store are a real-world instance of such a situation. To facilitate higher performance for these workloads (and eventually use the fscache patches), we have enabled a "loose" cache mode which does not attempt to maintain any form of consistency on the page-cache or dcache. This results in over two orders of magnitude performance improvement for cacheable block reads in the Bonnie benchmark. The more aggressive use of the dcache also seems to improve metadata operational performance. Signed-off-by: NEric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
