Protect d_unhashed(dentry) condition with d_lock. This means keeping DCACHE_UNHASHED bit in synch with hash manipulations. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Make d_count non-atomic and protect it with d_lock. This allows us to ensure a 0 refcount dentry remains 0 without dcache_lock. It is also fairly natural when we start protecting many other dentry members with d_lock. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Add a new lock, dcache_lru_lock, to protect the dcache LRU list from concurrent modification. d_lru is also protected by d_lock, which allows LRU lists to be accessed without the lru lock, using RCU in future patches. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Remove dcache_lock locking from hostfs filesystem, and move it into dcache helpers. All that is required is a coherent path name. Protection from concurrent modification of the namespace after path name generation is not provided in current code, because dcache_lock is dropped before the path is used.

Change d_hash so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. See similar patch for d_compare for details. For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Change d_compare so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. This does put significant restrictions on what may be done from the callback, however there don't seem to have been any problems with in-tree fses. If some strange use case pops up that _really_ cannot cope with the rcu-walk rules, we can just add new rcu-unaware callbacks, which would cause name lookup to drop out of rcu-walk mode. For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

smpfs and ncpfs want to update a live dentry name in-place. Rather than have them open code the locking, provide a documented dcache API. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Use vfat's method for dealing with negative dentries to preserve case, rather than overwrite dentry name in d_revalidate, which is a bit ugly and also gets in the way of doing lock-free path walking. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Change d_delete from a dentry deletion notification to a dentry caching advise, more like ->drop_inode. Require it to be constant and idempotent, and not take d_lock. This is how all existing filesystems use the callback anyway. This makes fine grained dentry locking of dput and dentry lru scanning much simpler. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

Switching d_op on a live dentry is racy in general, so avoid it. In this case it is a negative dentry, which is safer, but there are still concurrent ops which may be called on d_op in that case (eg. d_revalidate). So in general a filesystem may not do this. Fix configfs so as not to do this. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

percpu_counter library generates quite nasty code, so unless you need to dynamically allocate counters or take fast approximate value, a simple per cpu set of counters is much better. The percpu_counter can never be made to work as well, because it has an indirection from pointer to percpu memory, and it can't use direct this_cpu_inc interfaces because it doesn't use static PER_CPU data, so code will always be worse. In the fastpath, it is the difference between this: incl %gs:nr_dentry # nr_dentry and this: movl percpu_counter_batch(%rip), %edx # percpu_counter_batch, movl $1, %esi #, movq $nr_dentry, %rdi #, call __percpu_counter_add # (plus I clobber registers) __percpu_counter_add: pushq %rbp # movq %rsp, %rbp #, subq $32, %rsp #, movq %rbx, -24(%rbp) #, movq %r12, -16(%rbp) #, movq %r13, -8(%rbp) #, movq %rdi, %rbx # fbc, fbc #APP # 216 "/home/npiggin/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h" 1 movq %gs:kernel_stack,%rax #, pfo_ret__ # 0 "" 2 #NO_APP incl -8124(%rax) # <variable>.preempt_count movq 32(%rdi), %r12 # <variable>.counters, tcp_ptr__ #APP # 78 "lib/percpu_counter.c" 1 add %gs:this_cpu_off, %r12 # this_cpu_off, tcp_ptr__ # 0 "" 2 #NO_APP movslq (%r12),%r13 #* tcp_ptr__, tmp73 movslq %edx,%rax # batch, batch addq %rsi, %r13 # amount, count cmpq %rax, %r13 # batch, count jge .L27 #, negl %edx # tmp76 movslq %edx,%rdx # tmp76, tmp77 cmpq %rdx, %r13 # tmp77, count jg .L28 #, .L27: movq %rbx, %rdi # fbc, call _raw_spin_lock # addq %r13, 8(%rbx) # count, <variable>.count movq %rbx, %rdi # fbc, movl $0, (%r12) #,* tcp_ptr__ call _raw_spin_unlock # .L29: #APP # 216 "/home/npiggin/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h" 1 movq %gs:kernel_stack,%rax #, pfo_ret__ # 0 "" 2 #NO_APP decl -8124(%rax) # <variable>.preempt_count movq -8136(%rax), %rax #, D.14625 testb $8, %al #, D.14625 jne .L32 #, .L31: movq -24(%rbp), %rbx #, movq -16(%rbp), %r12 #, movq -8(%rbp), %r13 #, leave ret .p2align 4,,10 .p2align 3 .L28: movl %r13d, (%r12) # count,* jmp .L29 # .L32: call preempt_schedule # .p2align 4,,6 jmp .L31 # .size __percpu_counter_add, .-__percpu_counter_add .p2align 4,,15 Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

The nr_unused counters count the number of objects on an LRU, and as such they are synchronized with LRU object insertion and removal and scanning, and protected under the LRU lock. Making it per-cpu does not actually get any concurrency improvements because of this lock, and summing the counter is much slower, and incrementing/decrementing it costs more code size and is slower too. These counters should stay per-LRU, which currently means global. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

d_validate has been broken for a long time. kmem_ptr_validate does not guarantee that a pointer can be dereferenced if it can go away at any time. Even rcu_read_lock doesn't help, because the pointer might be queued in RCU callbacks but not executed yet. So the parent cannot be checked, nor the name hashed. The dentry pointer can not be touched until it can be verified under lock. Hashing simply cannot be used. Instead, verify the parent/child relationship by traversing parent's d_child list. It's slow, but only ncpfs and the destaged smbfs care about it, at this point. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

The preferred source address is currently ignored for local routes, which results in all local connections having a src address that is the same as the local dst address. Fix this by respecting the preferred source address when it is provided for local routes. This bug can be demonstrated as follows: # ifconfig dummy0 192.168.0.1 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 192.168.0.1 # ip route change table local local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 \ proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 We now establish a local connection and verify the source IP address selection: # nc -l 192.168.0.1 3128 & # nc 192.168.0.1 3128 & # netstat -ant | grep 192.168.0.1:3128.*EST tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:3128 192.168.0.1:33228 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:33228 192.168.0.1:3128 ESTABLISHED Signed-off-by: Joel Sing <jsing@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If security_filter_rule_init() doesn't return a rule, then not everything is as fine as the return code implies. This bug only occurs when the LSM (eg. SELinux) is disabled at runtime. Adding an empty LSM rule causes ima_match_rules() to always succeed, ignoring any remaining rules. default IMA TCB policy: # PROC_SUPER_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x9fa0 # SYSFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x62656572 # DEBUGFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x64626720 # TMPFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x01021994 # SECURITYFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x73636673 < LSM specific rule > dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t measure func=BPRM_CHECK measure func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ uid=0 Thus without the patch, with the boot parameters 'tcb selinux=0', adding the above 'dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t' rule to the default IMA TCB measurement policy, would result in nothing being measured. The patch prevents the default TCB policy from being replaced.

commit bf9ae538 (llc: use dev_hard_header) removed the skb_reset_mac_header call from llc_mac_hdr_init. This seems fine itself, but br_send_bpdu() invokes ebtables LOCAL_OUT. We oops in ebt_basic_match() because it assumes eth_hdr(skb) returns a meaningful result.

Commit 3f5a2a71 zeroes out the statistics message block (SMB) and coalescing message block (CMB) when adapter ring resources are freed. This is desirable behavior, but, as a side effect, the commit leads to an oops when atl1_set_ringparam() attempts to alter the number of rx or tx elements in the ring buffer (by using ethtool -G, for example). We don't want SMB or CMB to change during this operation. Modify atl1_set_ringparam() to preserve SMB and CMB when changing ring parameters.

Before this patch, the following error would sometimes occur after a resume on pxa3xx: /path/to/mm/memory.c:144: bad pmd 8040542e. The problem was that a temporary page table mapping was being improperly restored. The PXA3xx resume code creates a temporary mapping of resume_turn_on_mmu to avoid a prefetch abort. The pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu code requires that the r1 register holding the address of this mapping not be modified, however, resume_turn_on_mmu does modify it. It is mostly correct in that r1 receives the base table address, but it may also get other bits in 13:0. This results in pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu restoring the original mapping to the wrong place, corrupting memory and leaving the temporary mapping in place.

ipchain__fprintf_graph() casts the number of hits in a branch as an int, which means we lose its highests bits. This results in meaningless number of callchain hits in perf.data that have a high number of hits recorded, typically those that have callchain branches hits appearing more than INT_MAX. This happens easily as those are pondered by the event period.

Disable preemption in init_ibs(). The function only checks the ibs capabilities and sets up pci devices (if necessary). It runs only on one cpu but operates with the local APIC and some MSRs, thus it is better to disable preemption.
