Ok, its just the revert of the page_cache_release delta.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

while working on my mm patch for s390 I played with rmap a bit, adding
BUG statements and the like. While doing so I noticed some room for
improvement in rmap. Its minor stuff but anyway... 

The first observation is that the pte chain array doesn't have holes,
meaning that from the pte_chain_idx() of the first array every slot of
all following pte chain arrays are full. That is there can't be NULL
pointers. The "if (!pte_paddr)" check in try_to_unmap() can be removed
and if the loop in page_referenced() is started from pte_chain_idx(pc)
then the "if (!pte_paddr)" in page_referenced() can be removed as well.

The second observation is that the first pte array of a pte chain has
at least one entry. Empty pte chain arrays are always freed immediatly
after the last entry was removed. Because of that victim_i can be
calculated in a simpler way. Instead of setting victim_i to -1 and then
check in each loop iteration against -1 victim_i can just be set to
the pte_chain_idx of the first pte chain array.

I think I found a potential race in install_page/install_file_pte. The
inline function zap_pte releases pages by calling page_remove_rmap and
page_cache_release.  If this was the last user of a page it can get
purged from the page cache and then get immediatly reused. But there
might still be a tlb for this page on another cpu. The tlb is removed
in the callers of zap_pte, install_page and install_file_pte, but this
is too late. I admit that its a very unlikely race but never the less..

I fixed this by using the new ptep_clear_flush function that is introduced
with the tlb flush optimization patch for s/390.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

this is another s/390 related mm patch. It introduces the concept of
physical dirty and referenced bits into the common mm code. I always
had the nagging feeling that the pte functions for setting/clearing
the dirty and referenced bits are not appropriate for s/390. It works
but it is a bit of a hack. 
After the wake of rmap it is now possible to put a much better solution
into place. The idea is simple: since there are not dirty/referenced
bits in the pte make these function nops on s/390 and add operations
on the physical page to the appropriate places. For the referenced bit
this is the page_referenced() function. For the dirty bit there are
two relevant spots: in page_remove_rmap after the last user of the
page removed its reverse mapping and in try_to_unmap after the last
user was unmapped. There are two new functions to accomplish this:

 * page_test_and_clear_dirty: Test and clear the dirty bit of a
   physical page. This function is analog to ptep_test_and_clear_dirty
   but gets a struct page as argument instead of a pte_t pointer.

 * page_test_and_clear_young: Test and clear the referenced bit
   of a physical page. This function is analog to ptep_test_and_clear_young
   but gets a struct page as argument instead of a pte_t pointer.

Its pretty straightforward and with it the s/390 mm makes much more
sense. You'll need the tls flush optimization patch for the patch.
Comments ?

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

On the s/390 architecture we still have the issue with tlb flushing and the
ipte instruction.  We can optimize the tlb flushing a lot with some minor
interface changes between the arch backend and the memory management core. 
In the end the whole thing is about the Invalidate Page Table Entry (ipte)
instruction.  The instruction sets the invalid bit in the pte and removes the
tlb for the page on all cpus for the virtual to physical mapping of the page
in a particular address space.  The nice thing is that only the tlb for this
page gets removed, all the other tlbs stay valid.  The reason we can't use
ipte to implement flush_tlb_page() is one of the requirements of the
instruction: the pte that should get flushed needs to be *valid*.

I'd like to add the following four functions to the mm interface:

  * ptep_establish: Establish a new mapping. This sets a pte entry to a
    page table and flushes the tlb of the old entry on all cpus if it
    exists. This is more or less what establish_pte in mm/memory.c does
    right now but without the update_mmu_cache call.

  * ptep_test_and_clear_and_flush_young. Do what ptep_test_and_clear_young
    does and flush the tlb.

  * ptep_test_and_clear_and_flush_dirty. Do what ptep_test_and_clear_dirty
    does and flush the tlb.

  * ptep_get_and_clear_and_flush: Do what ptep_get_and_clear does and
    flush the tlb.

The s/390 specific functions in include/pgtable.h define their own optimized
version of these four functions by use of the ipte.

I avoid the definition of these function for every architecture I added them
to include/asm-generic/pgtable.h.  Since i386/x86 and others don't include
this header yet and define their own version of the functions found there I
#ifdef'd all functions in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h to be able to pick
the ones that are needed for each architecture (see patch for details).

With the new functions in place it is easy to do the optimization, e.g.  the
sequence

         ptep_get_and_clear(ptep);
         flush_tlb_page(vma, address);

gets replace by

         ptep_get_and_clear_and_flush(vma, address, ptep);

The old sequence still works but it is suboptimal on s/390.

- audit all 32 bit pointer accesses and make them use compat_ioctl(),
  because of the necessary conversion on s390
- introduce ULONG_IOCTL() which is used instead of COMPATIBLE_IOCTL()
  for all ioctls that have their argument encoded in 'arg' instead
  of the memory pointed to by arg. Same reason as above.
- remove most #ifdefs in <linux/compat_ioctl.h>: They don't make
  any sense if the respective handlers in fs/compat_ioctl.c are
  not disabled as well and they are potentially harmful (the
  CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DM e.g. was insufficient).
- comment out  COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(SIOCSIFBR) and
  COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(SIOCGIFBR), they appear to require a handler
- implement copy_in_user for s390, as needed for many handlers in
  fs/compat_ioctl.c

Fix a bug in the NFS write code whereby writepage() may end up deadlocking

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@fys.uio.no>

The nfs_permission() code needs to check for "local" mount flags such as

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@fys.uio.no>

The following patch fixes a bug when initializing the intent structure
in sys_uselib(): intents use the FMODE_READ convention rather than
O_RDONLY.

It also adds a missing open intent to open_exec(). This ensures that NFS
clients will do the necessary close-to-open data cache consistency
checking.

Currently, when calling nfs_commit_file(), we check the range argument,
and only commit NFS write requests that fall within the given range.
This is silly, since all servers use fsync(), to honour a COMMIT call,
and so will sync all pending writes to stable storage.

The following patch ensures that if at least one NFS write falls within
the range specified by the call to nfs_commit_file(), then we commit all
outstanding writes on that file.

This fixes a sometimes severe inefficiency when combining reads and
writes: nfs_wb_page() is used to clear out writes prior to scheduling a
read(), and can end up calling COMMIT for each page to be read.

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@fys.uio.no>

If users set the execute bit on a file, and then write to it,
remove_suid() causes a flood of SETATTR calls (one per write() syscall)
with no arguments to be sent down the wire.

The server will in any case clear the suid bit itself without any
prompting from us, so the following patch simply filters away all
SETATTR requests with empty or unsupported ia_valid fields.

From: James Morris <jmorris@redhat.com>

This patch is a rework of the skb audit logging code in SELinux.  Rather
than relying on skb header pointers, it parses the skb for specific
protocols (TCP and UDP for IPv4 at this stage).  This is safer for the case
of locally generated raw packets, which can be malformed.  It also now
takes fragmented skbs into account.  The new code allows the caller to
parse the skb so that parsed information can be more readily re-used.
