This reference at the end of rb_get_reader_page() was causing off-by-one writes to the prev pointer of the page after the reader page when that page is the head page, and therefore the reader page has the RB_PAGE_HEAD flag in its list.next pointer. This eventually results in a GPF in a subsequent call to rb_set_head_page() (usually from rb_get_reader_page()) when that prev pointer is dereferenced. The dereferenced register would characteristically have an address that appears shifted left by one byte (eg, ffxxxxxxxxxxxxyy instead of ffffxxxxxxxxxxxx) due to being written at an address one byte too high.

Commit 35dead42 "modules: don't export section names of empty sections via sysfs" changed the set of sections that have attributes, but did not change the iteration over these attributes in add_notes_attrs(). This can lead to add_notes_attrs() creating attributes with the wrong names or with null name pointers. Introduce a sect_empty() function and use it in both add_sect_attrs() and add_notes_attrs().

This reverts commit ae1b22f6. As Linus said in 982d007a: "There was something really messy about cmpxchg8b and clone CPU's, so if you enable it on other CPUs later, do it carefully." This breaks lguest for those configs, but we can fix that by emulating if we have to.

exofs uses simple_write_end() for it's .write_end handler. But it is not enough because simple_write_end() does not call mark_inode_dirty() when it extends i_size. So even if we do call mark_inode_dirty at beginning of write out, with a very long IO and a saturated system we might get the .write_inode() called while still extend-writing to file and miss out on the last i_size updates. So override .write_end, call simple_write_end(), and afterwords if i_size was changed call mark_inode_dirty(). It stands to logic that since simple_write_end() was the one extending i_size it should also call mark_inode_dirty(). But it looks like all users of simple_write_end() are memory-bound pseudo filesystems, who could careless about mark_inode_dirty(). I might submit a warning-comment patch to simple_write_end() in future. CC: Stable <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Some on disk exofs constants and types are defined in the pnfs_osd_xdr.h file. Since we needed these types before the pnfs-objects code was accepted to mainline we duplicated the minimal needed definitions into an exofs local header. The definitions where conditionally included depending on !CONFIG_PNFS defined. So if PNFS was present in the tree definitions are taken from there and if not they are defined locally. That was all good but, the CONFIG_PNFS is planed to be included upstream before the pnfs-objects is also included. (The first pnfs batch might be pnfs-files only) So condition exofs local definitions on the absence of pnfs_osd_xdr.h inclusion (__PNFS_OSD_XDR_H__ not defined). User code must make sure that in future pnfs_osd_xdr.h will be included before fs/exofs/pnfs.h, which happens to be so in current code. Once pnfs-objects hits mainline, exofs's local header will be removed. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Holding locks over device_del -> kobject_del -> sysfs_deactivate can cause deadlocks if those same locks are grabbed in sysfs show or store methods. The I model s_active count + completion as a sleeping read/write lock. I describe to lockdep sysfs_get_active as a read_trylock, sysfs_put_active as a read_unlock, and sysfs_deactivate as a write_lock and write_unlock pair. This seems to capture the essence for purposes of finding deadlocks, and in my testing gives finds real issues and ignores non-issues. This brings us back to holding locks over kobject_del is a problem that ideally we should find a way of addressing, but at least lockdep can tell us about the problems instead of requiring developers to debug rare strange system deadlocks, that happen when sysfs files are removed while being written to.
