Currently the error handling in hfsplus_fill_super is a mess, and can
lead to accessing fields in the superblock that haven't been even set
up yet. Fix this by making sure we do not set up sb->s_root until we
have the mount fully set up, and before that do proper step by step
unwinding instead of using hfsplus_put_super as a big hammer.

In ntfs_mft_record_alloc() when mapping the new extent mft record with
map_extent_mft_record() we overwrite @m with the return value and on
error, we then try to use the old @m but that is no longer there as @m
now contains an error code instead so we crash when dereferencing the
error code as if it were a pointer.
The simple fix is to use a temporary variable to store the return value
thus preserving the original @m for later use. This is a backport from
the commercial Tuxera-NTFS driver and is well tested...
Thanks go to Julia Lawall for pointing this out (whilst I had fixed it

On recent 2.6.38-rc kernels, connectathon basic test 6 fails on
NFSv4 mounts of OpenSolaris with something like:

> ./test6: (/mnt/klimt/matisse.test) Test failed with 3 errors
> basic tests failed
> Tests failed, leaving /mnt/klimt mounted
> [cel@matisse cthon04]$
I narrowed the problem down to nfs4_decode_dirent() reporting that the
decode buffer had overflowed while decoding the entries for those
missing files.
verify_attr_len() assumes both it's pointer arguments reside on the
same page. When these arguments point to locations on two different
pages, verify_attr_len() can report false errors. This can happen now
that a large NFSv4 readdir result can span pages.
We have reasonably good checking in nfs4_decode_dirent() anyway, so
it should be safe to simply remove the extra checking.
At a guess, this was introduced by commit 6650239a, "NFS: Don't use
vm_map_ram() in readdir".

When filling in the middle of a previous delayed allocation in
xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real, set br_startblock of the new delay
extent to the right to nullstartblock instead of 0 before inserting
the extent into the ifork (xfs_iext_insert), rather than setting
br_startblock afterward.
Adding the extent into the ifork with br_startblock=0 can lead to
the extent being copied into the btree by xfs_bmap_extent_to_btree
if we happen to convert from extents format to btree format before
updating br_startblock with the correct value. The unexpected
addition of this delay extent to the btree can cause subsequent
XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO filesystem shutdown in several
xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real cases where we are converting a delay
extent to real and unexpectedly find an extent already inserted.
For example:
911 case BMAP_LEFT_FILLING:
912 /*
913 * Filling in the first part of a previous delayed allocation.
914 * The left neighbor is not contiguous.
915 */
916 trace_xfs_bmap_pre_update(ip, idx, state, _THIS_IP_);
917 xfs_bmbt_set_startoff(ep, new_endoff);
918 temp = PREV.br_blockcount - new->br_blockcount;
919 xfs_bmbt_set_blockcount(ep, temp);
920 xfs_iext_insert(ip, idx, 1, new, state);
921 ip->i_df.if_lastex = idx;
922 ip->i_d.di_nextents++;
923 if (cur == NULL)
924 rval = XFS_ILOG_CORE | XFS_ILOG_DEXT;
925 else {
926 rval = XFS_ILOG_CORE;
927 if ((error = xfs_bmbt_lookup_eq(cur, new->br_startoff,
928 new->br_startblock, new->br_blockcount,
929 &i)))
930 goto done;
931 XFS_WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO(i == 0, done);
With the bogus extent in the btree we shutdown the filesystem at
931. The conversion from extents to btree format happens when the
number of extents in the inode increases above ip->i_df.if_ext_max.
xfs_bmap_extent_to_btree copies extents from the ifork into the
btree, ignoring all delalloc extents which are denoted by
br_startblock having some value of nullstartblock.

The extent size hint can be set to larger than an AG. This means
that the alignment process can push the range to be allocated
outside the bounds of the AG, resulting in assert failures or
corrupted bmbt records. Similarly, if the extsize is larger than the
maximum extent size supported, the alignment process will produce
extents that are too large to fit into the bmbt records, resulting
in a different type of assert/corruption failure.
Fix this by limiting extsize at the time іt is set firstly to be
less than MAXEXTLEN, then to be a maximum of half the size of the
AGs in the filesystem for non-realtime inodes. Realtime inodes do
not allocate out of AGs, so don't have to be restricted by the size

The cause of the leak is that the "remove" parameter of IOP_UNPIN()
is never set when a CIL push is aborted. This means that the EFI
item is never freed if it was in the push being cancelled. The
problem is specific to delayed logging, but has uncovered a couple
of problems with the handling of IOP_UNPIN(remove).
Firstly, we cannot safely call xfs_trans_del_item() from IOP_UNPIN()
in the CIL commit failure path or the iclog write failure path
because for delayed loging we have no transaction context. Hence we
must only call xfs_trans_del_item() if the log item being unpinned
has an active log item descriptor.
Secondly, xfs_trans_uncommit() does not handle log item descriptor
freeing during the traversal of log items on a transaction. It can
reference a freed log item descriptor when unpinning an EFI item.
Hence it needs to use a safe list traversal method to allow items to
be removed from the transaction during IOP_UNPIN().

zlib_err = zlib_inflate(stream, Z_SYNC_FLUSH);

} while (zlib_err == Z_OK);
If continue is executed (avail == 0) then the while condition will be
evaluated testing zlib_err, which is uninitialised first time around the
loop.
Fix this by getting rid of the 'if (avail == 0)' condition test, this
edge condition should not be being handled in the decompressor code, and
instead handle it generically in the caller code.
Similarly for xz_wrapper.c.
Incidentally, on most architectures (bar Mips and Parisc), no
uninitialised variable warning is generated by gcc, this is because the
while condition test on continue is optimised out and not performed
(when executing continue zlib_err has not been changed since entering

When done searching, the for_each_host loop in next_host_state() falls
through and returns the final host on the host chain without bumping
it's reference count.
Since the host's ref count is only one at that point, releasing the
host in nlm_host_rebooted() attempts to destroy the host prematurely,
and therefore hits a BUG().
Likely, the original intent of the for_each_host behavior in
next_host_state() was to handle the case when the host chain is empty.
Searching the chain and finding no suitable host to return needs to be
handled as well.
Defensively restructure next_host_state() always to return NULL when
the loop falls through.

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfrench/cifs-2.6:
Make CIFS mount work in a container.
CIFS: Remove pointless variable assignment in cifs_dfs_do_automount()
Teach cifs about network namespaces, so mounting uses adresses/routing
visible from the container rather than from init context.
A container is a chroot on steroids that changes more than just the root
filesystem the new processes see. One thing containers can isolate is
"network namespaces", meaning each container can have its own set of
ethernet interfaces, each with its own own IP address and routing to the
outside world. And if you open a socket in _userspace_ from processes
within such a container, this works fine.
But sockets opened from within the kernel still use a single global
networking context in a lot of places, meaning the new socket's address
and routing are correct for PID 1 on the host, but are _not_ what
userspace processes in the container get to use.
So when you mount a network filesystem from within in a container, the
mount code in the CIFS driver uses the host's networking context and not
the container's networking context, so it gets the wrong address, uses
the wrong routing, and may even try to go out an interface that the
container can't even access... Bad stuff.
This patch copies the mount process's network context into the CIFS
structure that stores the rest of the server information for that mount
point, and changes the socket open code to use the saved network context
instead of the global network context. I.E. "when you attempt to use
these addresses, do so relative to THIS set of network interfaces and
routing rules, not the old global context from back before we supported
containers".
The big long HOWTO sets up a test environment on the assumption you've
never used ocntainers before. It basically says:
1) configure and build a new kernel that has container support
2) build a new root filesystem that includes the userspace container
control package (LXC)
3) package/run them under KVM (so you don't have to mess up your host
system in order to play with containers).
4) set up some containers under the KVM system
5) set up contradictory routing in the KVM system and the container so
that the host and the container see different things for the same address
6) try to mount a CIFS share from both contexts so you can both force it
to work and force it to fail.

In fs/cifs/cifs_dfs_ref.c::cifs_dfs_do_automount() we have this code:
...
mnt = ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);
if (IS_ERR(tlink)) {
mnt = ERR_CAST(tlink);
goto free_full_path;
}
ses = tlink_tcon(tlink)->ses;
rc = get_dfs_path(xid, ses, full_path + 1, cifs_sb->local_nls,
&num_referrals, &referrals,
cifs_sb->mnt_cifs_flags & CIFS_MOUNT_MAP_SPECIAL_CHR);
cifs_put_tlink(tlink);
mnt = ERR_PTR(-ENOENT);
...
The assignment of 'mnt = ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);' is completely pointless. If we
take the 'if (IS_ERR(tlink))' branch we'll set 'mnt' again and we'll also
do so if we do not take the branch. There is no way we'll ever use 'mnt'
with the assigned 'ERR_PTR(-EINVAL)' value, so we may as well just remove
the pointless assignment.

CIFS: Make cifsFileInfo_put work with strict cache mode
Make sure that CIFSSMBEcho can handle unaligned fields. Also fix a minor
bug that causes this warning:
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c: In function 'CIFSSMBEcho':
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c:740: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type
...WordCount is u8, not __le16, so no need to convert it.
This patch should apply cleanly on top of the rest of the patchset to
clean up unaligned access.

kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
When using devices that support max_segments > BIO_MAX_PAGES (256), direct
IO tries to allocate a bio with more pages than allowed, which leads to an
oops in dio_bio_alloc(). Clamp the request to the supported maximum, and
change dio_bio_alloc() to reflect that bio_alloc() will always return a
bio when called with __GFP_WAIT and a valid number of vectors.

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.
This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.
