      mm/mempolicy.c: fix pgoff in mbind vma merge · 8aacc9f5
      Caspar Zhang authored
      commit 9d8cebd4 ("mm: fix mbind vma merge problem") didn't really
      fix the mbind vma merge problem due to wrong pgoff value passing to
      vma_merge(), which made vma_merge() always return NULL.
      
      Before the patch applied, we are getting a result like:
      
        addr = 0x7fa58f00c000
        [snip]
        7fa58f00c000-7fa58f00d000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
        7fa58f00d000-7fa58f00e000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
        7fa58f00e000-7fa58f00f000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
      
      here 7fa58f00c000->7fa58f00f000 we get 3 VMAs which are expected to be
      merged described as described in commit 9d8cebd4.
      
      Re-testing the patched kernel with the reproducer provided in commit
      9d8cebd4, we get the correct result:
      
        addr = 0x7ffa5aaa2000
        [snip]
        7ffa5aaa2000-7ffa5aaa6000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
        7fffd556f000-7fffd5584000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]

      restore pinning the victim dentry in vfs_rmdir()/vfs_rename_dir() · 1d2ef590
      Al Viro authored
      We used to get the victim pinned by dentry_unhash() prior to commit
      64252c75 ("vfs: remove dget() from dentry_unhash()") and ->rmdir()
      and ->rename() instances relied on that; most of them don't care, but
      ones that used d_delete() themselves do.  As the result, we are getting
      rmdir() oopses on NFS now.
      
      Just grab the reference before locking the victim and drop it explicitly
      after unlocking, same as vfs_rename_other() does.

      xfs: fix a use after free in xfs_end_io_direct_write · 2d2422ae
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      There is a window in which the ioend that we call inode_dio_wake on
      in xfs_end_io_direct_write is already free.  Fix this by storing
      the inode pointer in a local variable.
      
      This is a fix for the regression introduced in 3.1-rc by
      "fs: move inode_dio_done to the end_io handler".
