Change the code ordering so that hibernation_ops->prepare() is called after device_suspend(). This is needed so that we don't violate the ACPI specification, which states that the _PTS and _GTS system-control methods, executed from acpi_sleep_prepare(), ought to be called after devices have been put in low power states. The "Finish" label in hibernation_restore() is moved, because device_suspend() resumes devices if the suspending of them fails and the restore code ordering should reflect the hibernation code ordering.

At least on some machines it is necessary to prepare the ACPI firmware for the restoration of the system memory state from the hibernation image if the "platform" mode of hibernation has been used. Namely, in that cases we need to disable the GPEs before replacing the "boot" kernel with the "frozen" kernel (cf. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7887). After the restore they will be re-enabled by hibernation_ops->finish(), but if the restore fails, they have to be re-enabled by the restore code explicitly. For this purpose we can introduce two additional hibernation operations, called pre_restore() and restore_cleanup() and call them from the restore code path. Still, they should be called if the "platform" mode of hibernation has been used, so we need to pass the information about the hibernation mode from the "frozen" kernel to the "boot" kernel in the image header. Apparently, we can't drop the disabling of GPEs before the restore because of Bug #7887 . We also can't do it unconditionally, because the GPEs wouldn't have been enabled after a successful restore if the suspend had been done in the 'shutdown' or 'reboot' mode. In principle we could (and probably should) unconditionally disable the GPEs before each snapshot creation *and* before the restore, but then we'd have to unconditionally enable them after the snapshot creation as well as after the restore (or restore failure) Still, for this purpose we'd need to modify acpi_enter_sleep_state_prep() and acpi_leave_sleep_state() and we'd have to introduce some mechanism synchronizing the disablind/enabling of the GPEs with the device drivers' .suspend()/.resume() routines and with disable_/enable_nonboot_cpus(). However, this would have affected the suspend (ie. s2ram) code as well as the hibernation, which I'd like to avoid in this patch series. Signed-off-by:

Currently, much of the code in kernel/power/disk.c is duplicated in kernel/power/user.c , mainly for historical reasons. By eliminating this code duplication we can reduce the size of user.c quite substantially and remove the maintenance difficulty resulting from it.

In the face of the recent change of suspend code ordering (cf. http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=117938245931603&w=2) we should also modify the code ordering in swsusp so that hibernation_ops->prepare() is executed after device_suspend(). However, for this purpose it seems reasonable to eliminate the code duplication between kernel/power/disk.c and kernel/power/user.c first. By eliminating it we can reduce the size of user.c quite substantially and remove the maintenance difficulty with making essentially the same changes in two different places. Moreover, we should also remove the calls to "platform" functions from the restore code path, since it doesn't carry out any power transition of the system, but we generally need to disable the GPEs before the restore if the 'platform' hibernation mode has been used. To do this, we can introduce two new hibernation_ops to be used in the restore code. This patch: Make the code hibernation code in kernel/power/user.c be functionally equivalent to the corresponding code in kernel/power/disk.c , as it should be. The calls to the platform functions removed by this patch are incorrect. They should be replaced with some other "platform" invocations that will be introduced in one of the subsequent patches.

In order to enable things like PM_TRACE, you're required to enable PM_DEBUG, which sends a large spew of messages on boot, and often times can overflow dmesg buffer. Create new PM_VERBOSE and shift that to be the option that enables drivers/base/power's messages. Signed-off-by:

page_mkclean() doesn't re-protect ptes for non-linear mappings, so a later re-dirty through such a mapping will not generate a fault, PG_dirty will not reflect the dirty state and the dirty count will be skewed. This implies that msync() is also currently broken for nonlinear mappings. The easiest solution is to emulate remap_file_pages on non-linear mappings with simple mmap() for non ram-backed filesystems. Applications continue to work (albeit slower), as long as the number of remappings remain below the maximum vma count. However all currently known real uses of non-linear mappings are for ram backed filesystems, which this patch doesn't affect. Signed-off-by:

This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer. This requires requires all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault -- however that would be for another patch).

Change ->fault prototype. We now return an int, which contains VM_FAULT_xxx code in the low byte, and FAULT_RET_xxx code in the next byte. FAULT_RET_ code tells the VM whether a page was found, whether it has been locked, and potentially other things. This is not quite the way he wanted it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to arch code). This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were going to do that anyway. struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use without really good reason. The page is now returned via a page pointer in the vm_fault struct. Signed-off-by:

Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

Fix the race between invalidate_inode_pages and do_no_page. Andrea Arcangeli identified a subtle race between invalidation of pages from pagecache with userspace mappings, and do_no_page. The issue is that invalidation has to shoot down all mappings to the page, before it can be discarded from the pagecache. Between shooting down ptes to a particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache, do_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new mapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache. The most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation. This case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the file's i_size, and its truncate_count. Truncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before unmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the page if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page table lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl will serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated truncate_count is actually visible). Complexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the case where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size. do_no_page can come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in progress (as it is when it is outside i_size). The end result is that dangling (->mapping == NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file may be mapped into userspace with nonsense data. Valid mappings to the same place will see a different page. Andrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using a page->flags bit. He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but that was initially considered too heavyweight. However, it is not a global or per-file lock, and the page cacheline is modified in do_no_page to increment _count and _mapcount anyway, so a further modification should not be a large performance hit. Scalability is not an issue. This patch implements this latter approach. ->nopage implementations return with the page locked if it is possible for their underlying file to be invalidated (in that case, they must set a special vm_flags bit to indicate so). do_no_page only unlocks the page after setting up the mapping completely. invalidation is excluded because it holds the page lock during invalidation of each page (and ensures that the page is not mapped while holding the lock). This also allows significant simplifications in do_no_page, because we have the page locked in the right place in the pagecache from the start. Signed-off-by:

Since gfs2 can't prevent conflicting opens or leases on other nodes, we probably shouldn't allow it to give out leases at all. Put the newly defined lease operation into use in gfs2 by turning off lease, unless we're using the "nolock' locking module (in which case all locking is local anyway). Signed-off-by:

J. Bruce Fields authored
Currently leases are only kept locally, so there's no way for a distributed filesystem to enforce them against multiple clients. We're particularly interested in the case of nfsd exporting a cluster filesystem, in which case nfsd needs cluster-coherent leases in order to implement delegations correctly. Also add some documentation. Signed-off-by: -

We've been using the convention that vfs_foo is the function that calls a filesystem-specific foo method if it exists, or falls back on a generic method if it doesn't; thus vfs_foo is what is called when some other part of the kernel (normally lockd or nfsd) wants to get a lock, whereas foo is what filesystems call to use the underlying local functionality as part of their lock implementation. So rename setlease to vfs_setlease (which will call a filesystem-specific setlease after a later patch) and __setlease to setlease. Also, vfs_setlease need only be GPL-exported as long as it's only needed by lockd and nfsd. Signed-off-by: -
