4da6dc2936 ocfs2/dlm: Use negotiated o2dlm protocol version
Patch fixes a bug in the o2dlm protocol negotiation in that it is using
the builtin version rather than the negotiated version during the domain
join. This causes join errors when a node having kernel >= 2.6.37 joins
a cluster with nodes having kernels < 2.6.37.

This only affects the o2cb cluster stack.

9a790ba1ec ocfs2: skip existing hole when removing the last extent_rec in punching-hole codes.
In the case of removing a partial extent record which covers a hole, current
punching-hole logic will try to remove more than the length of whole extent
record, which leads to the failure of following assert(fs/ocfs2/alloc.c):

5507         BUG_ON(cpos < le32_to_cpu(rec->e_cpos) || trunc_range > rec_range);

This patch tries to skip existing hole at the last attempt of removing a partial
extent record, what's more, it also adds some necessary comments for better
understanding of punching-hole codes.

d3d0720d4a ceph: do not use i_wrbuffer_ref as refcount for Fb cap
We increments i_wrbuffer_ref when taking the Fb cap. This breaks
the dirty page accounting and causes looping in
__ceph_do_pending_vmtruncate, and ceph client hangs.

This bug can be reproduced occasionally by running blogbench.

Add a new field i_wb_ref to inode and dedicate it to Fb reference
counting.

349dbc3669 nilfs2: fix infinite loop in nilfs_palloc_freev function
After having applied commit 9954e7af14 ("nilfs2: add free
entries count only if clear bit operation succeeded"), a free routine
of nilfs came to fall into an infinite loop, outputting the same
message endlessly:

 nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed
 nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed
 nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed
 nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed
 nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 29497 already freed ...

That patch broke the routine so that a loop counter is never updated
in an abnormal state.  This fixes the regression.

7ac956576d xfs: fix race condition in AIL push trigger
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One is caused by a
race condition in determining whether there is a psh in progress or
not.

The XFS_AIL_PUSHING_BIT is used to determine whether a push is
currently in progress.  When the AIL push work completes, it checked
whether the target changed and cleared the PUSHING bit to allow a
new push to be requeued. The race condition is as follows:

	Thread 1		push work

	smp_wmb()
				smp_rmb()
				check ailp->xa_target unchanged
	update ailp->xa_target
	test/set PUSHING bit
	does not queue
				clear PUSHING bit
				does not requeue

Now that the push target is updated, new attempts to push the AIL
will not trigger as the push target will be the same, and hence
despite trying to push the AIL we won't ever wake it again.

The fix is to ensure that the AIL push work clears the PUSHING bit
before it checks if the target is unchanged.

As a result, both push triggers operate on the same test/set bit
criteria, so even if we race in the push work and miss the target
update, the thread requesting the push will still set the PUSHING
bit and queue the push work to occur. For safety sake, the same
queue check is done if the push work detects the target change,
though only one of the two will will queue new work due to the use
of test_and_set_bit() checks.

fe0da76731 xfs: make AIL target updates and compares 32bit safe.
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One of the problems
noticed was that updates of the push target are not 32 bit safe as
the target is a 64 bit value.

We cannot copy a 64 bit LSN without the possibility of corrupting
the result when racing with another updating thread. We have
function to do this update safely without needing to care about
32/64 bit issues - xfs_trans_ail_copy_lsn() - so use that when
updating the AIL push target.

Also move the reading of the target in the push work inside the AIL
lock, and use XFS_LSN_CMP() for the unlocked comparison during work
termination to close read holes as well.

50e86686df xfs: always push the AIL to the target
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One of the problems
discovered is a target mismatch between the item pushing loop and
the target itself.

The push trigger checks for the target increasing (i.e. new target >
current) while the push loop only pushes items that have a LSN <
current. As a result, we can get the situation where the push target
is X, the items at the tail of the AIL have LSN X and they don't get
pushed. The push work then completes thinking it is done, and cannot
be restarted until the push target increases to >= X + 1. If the
push target then never increases (because the tail is not moving),
then we never run the push work again and we stall.

Fix it by making sure log items with a LSN that matches the target
exactly are pushed during the loop.

9e7004e741 xfs: exit AIL push work correctly when AIL is empty
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. The main cause is a
regression where a work exit path fails to clear the PUSHING state
and recheck the target correctly.

Make both exit paths do the same PUSHING bit clearing and target
checking when the "no more work to be done" condition is hit.

228d62dd3f xfs: ensure reclaim cursor is reset correctly at end of AG
On a 32 bit highmem PowerPC machine, the XFS inode cache was growing
without bound and exhausting low memory causing the OOM killer to be
triggered. After some effort, the problem was reproduced on a 32 bit
x86 highmem machine.

The problem is that the per-ag inode reclaim index cursor was not
getting reset to the start of the AG if the radix tree tag lookup
found no more reclaimable inodes. Hence every further reclaim
attempt started at the same index beyond where any reclaimable
inodes lay, and no further background reclaim ever occurred from the
AG.

Without background inode reclaim the VM driven cache shrinker
simply cannot keep up with cache growth, and OOM is the result.

While the change that exposed the problem was the conversion of the
inode reclaim to use work queues for background reclaim, it was not
the cause of the bug. The bug was introduced when the cursor code
was added, just waiting for some weird configuration to strike....

a09a79f668 Don't lock guardpage if the stack is growing up
Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with
down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack
and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too.

This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with
up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and
when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch.

[ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the
  grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and
  share the infrstructure with the /proc bits.

  Tested on ia64 that has both grow-up and grow-down segments  - Linus ]

52c6e6f990 UBIFS: seek journal heads to the latest bud in replay
This is the second fix of the following symptom:

UBIFS error (pid 34456): could not find an empty LEB

which sometimes happens after power cuts when we mount the file-system - UBIFS
refuses it with the above error message which comes from the
'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' function. I can reproduce this using the integck test
with the UBIFS power cut emulation enabled.

Analysis of the problem.

Currently UBIFS replay seeks the journal heads to the last _replayed_ bud.
But the buds are replayed out-of-order, so the replay basically seeks journal
heads to the "random" bud belonging to this head, and not to the _last_ one.

The result of this is that the GC head may be seeked to a full LEB with no free
space, or very little free space. And 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' tries to find a
fully or mostly dirty LEB to match the current GC head (because we need to
garbage-collect that dirty LEB at one go, because we do not have @c->gc_lnum).
So 'ubifs_find_dirty_leb()' fails and we fall back to finding an empty LEB and
also fail. As a result - recovery fails and mounting fails.

This patch teaches the replay to initialize the GC heads exactly to the latest
buds, i.e. the buds which have the largest sequence number in corresponding
log reference nodes.

b50b9f4085 UBIFS: do not free write-buffers when in R/O mode
Currently UBIFS has a small optimization - it frees write-buffers when it is
re-mounted from R/W mode to R/O mode. Of course, when it is mounted R/O, it
does not allocate write-buffers as well.

This optimization is nice but it leads to subtle problems and complications
in recovery, which I can reproduce using the integck test. The symptoms are
that after a power cut the file-system cannot be mounted if we first mount
it R/O, and then re-mount R/W - 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' prints:

UBIFS error (pid 34456): could not find an empty LEB

Analysis of the  problem.

When mounting R/W, the reply process sets journal heads to buds [1], but
when mounting R/O - it does not do this, because the write-buffers are not
allocated. So 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' works completely differently for the
same file-system but for the following 2 cases:

1. mounting R/W after a power cut and recover
2. mounting R/O after a power cut, re-mounting R/W and run deferred recovery

In the former case, we have journal heads seeked to the a bud, in the latter
case, they are non-seeked (wbuf->lnum == -1). So in the latter case we do not
try to recover the GC LEB by garbage-collecting to the GC head, but we just
try to find an empty LEB, and there may be no empty LEBs, so we just fail.
On the other hand, in the former case (mount R/W), we are able to make a GC LEB
(@c->gc_lnum) by garbage-collecting.

Thus, let's remove this small nice optimization and always allocate
write-buffers. This should not make too big difference - we have only 3
of them, each of max. write unit size, which is usually 2KiB. So this is
about 6KiB of RAM for the typical case, and only when mounted R/O.

[1]: Note, currently the replay process is setting (seeking) the journal heads
to _some_ buds, not necessarily to the buds which had been the journal heads
before the power cut happened. This will be fixed separately.

2a2047bc94 cifs: sanitize length checking in coalesce_t2 (try #3)
There are a couple of places in this code where these values can wrap or
go negative, and that could potentially end up overflowing the buffer.
Ensure that that doesn't happen. Do all of the length calculation and
checks first, and only perform the memcpy after they pass.

Also, increase some stack variables to 32 bits to ensure that they don't
wrap without being detected.

Finally, change the error codes to be a bit more descriptive of any
problems detected. -EINVAL isn't very accurate.

fcda7f4578 cifs: check for bytes_remaining going to zero in CIFS_SessSetup
It's possible that when we go to decode the string area in the
SESSION_SETUP response, that bytes_remaining will be 0. Decrementing it at
that point will mean that it can go "negative" and wrap. Check for a
bytes_remaining value of 0, and don't try to decode the string area if
that's the case.

bfacf2225a cifs: change bleft in decode_unicode_ssetup back to signed type
The buffer length checks in this function depend on this value being a
signed data type, but 690c522fa converted it to an unsigned type.

Also, eliminate a problem with the null termination check in the same
function. cifs_strndup_from_ucs handles that situation correctly
already, and the existing check could potentially lead to a buffer
overrun since it increments bleft without checking to see whether it
falls off the end of the buffer.

6d4831c283 vfs: avoid large kmalloc()s for the fdtable
Azurit reports large increases in system time after 2.6.36 when running
Apache.  It was bisected down to a892e2d7dc ("vfs: use kmalloc()
to allocate fdmem if possible").

That patch caused the vfs to use kmalloc() for very large allocations and
this is causing excessive work (and presumably excessive reclaim) within
the page allocator.

Fix it by falling back to vmalloc() earlier - when the allocation attempt
would have been considered "costly" by reclaim.

26c4c17073 nfs: don't lose MS_SYNCHRONOUS on remount of noac mount
On a remount, the VFS layer will clear the MS_SYNCHRONOUS bit on the
assumption that the flags on the mount syscall will have it set if the
remounted fs is supposed to keep it.

In the case of "noac" though, MS_SYNCHRONOUS is implied. A remount of
such a mount will lose the MS_SYNCHRONOUS flag since "sync" isn't part
of the mount options.
