95599968d1 ext4: remove mb_groups before tearing down the buddy_cache
We can't have references held on pages in the s_buddy_cache while we are
trying to truncate its pages and put the inode.  All the pages must be
gone before we reach clear_inode.  This can only be gauranteed if we
can prevent new users from grabbing references to s_buddy_cache's pages.

The original bug can be reproduced and the bug fix can be verified by:

while true; do mount -t ext4 /dev/ram0 /export/hda3/ram0; \
	umount /export/hda3/ram0; done &

while true; do cat /proc/fs/ext4/ram0/mb_groups; done

79906964a1 ext4: don't trash state flags in EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS
In commit 353eb83c we removed i_state_flags with 64-bit longs, But
when handling the EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS ioctl, we replace i_flags
directly, which trashes the state flags which are stored in the high
32-bits of i_flags on 64-bit platforms.  So use the the
ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions which use atomic bit
manipulation functions instead.

f3fc0210c0 ext4: add missing save_error_info() to ext4_error()
The ext4_error() function is missing a call to save_error_info().
Since this is the function which marks the file system as containing
an error, this oversight (which was introduced in 2.6.36) is quite
significant, and should be backported to older stable kernels with
high urgency.

6f2e9f0e7d ext4: protect group inode free counting with group lock
Now when we set the group inode free count, we don't have a proper
group lock so that multiple threads may decrease the inode free
count at the same time. And e2fsck will complain something like:

Free inodes count wrong for group #1 (1, counted=0).
Fix? no

Free inodes count wrong for group #2 (3, counted=0).
Fix? no

Directories count wrong for group #2 (780, counted=779).
Fix? no

Free inodes count wrong for group #3 (2272, counted=2273).
Fix? no

So this patch try to protect it with the ext4_lock_group.

btw, it is found by xfstests test case 269 and the volume is
mkfsed with the parameter
"-O ^resize_inode,^uninit_bg,extent,meta_bg,flex_bg,ext_attr"
and I have run it 100 times and the error in e2fsck doesn't
show up again.

8563000d3b ext4: use consistent ssize_t type in ext4_file_write()
The generic_file_aio_write() function returns ssize_t, and
ext4_file_write() returns a ssize_t, so use a ssize_t to collect the
return value from generic_file_aio_write().  It shouldn't matter since
the VFS read/write paths shouldn't allow a read greater than MAX_INT,
but there was previously a bug in the AIO code paths, and it's best if
we use a consistent type so that the return value from
generic_file_aio_write() can't get truncated.

967ac8af44 ext4: fix potential integer overflow in alloc_flex_gd()
In alloc_flex_gd(), when flexbg_size is large, kmalloc size would
overflow and flex_gd->groups would point to a buffer smaller than
expected, causing OOB accesses when it is used.

Note that in ext4_resize_fs(), flexbg_size is calculated using
sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex, which is read from the disk and only bounded
to [1, 31]. The patch returns NULL for too large flexbg_size.

f32aaf2d2b ext4: enable the 64-bit jbd2 feature based on the 64-bit ext4 feature
Previously we were only enabling the 64-bit jbd2 feature if the number
of blocks in the file system was greater 2**32-1.  The problem with
this is that it makes it harder to test the 64-bit journal code paths
with small file systems, since a small test file system would with the
64-bit ext4 feature enable would use a 64-bit file system on-disk data
structures, but use a 32-bit journal.

This would also cause problems when trying to do an online resize to
grow the filesystem above the 2**32-1 boundary.  Fortunately the patch
to support online resize for 64-bit file systems hasn't been merged
yet, so this problem hasn't arisen in practice.

57f73c2c89 ext4: fix handling of journalled quota options
Commit 26092bf5 broke handling of journalled quota mount options by
trying to parse argument of every mount option as a number.  Fix this
by dealing with the quota options before we call match_int().

Thanks to Jan Kara for discovering this regression.

9cd70b347e ext4: address scalability issue by removing extent cache statistics
Andi Kleen and Tim Chen have reported that under certain circumstances
the extent cache statistics are causing scalability problems due to
cache line bounces.

6268b325c3 Revert "ext4: don't release page refs in ext4_end_bio()"
This reverts commit b43d17f319.

Dave Jones reports that it causes lockups on his laptop, and his debug
output showed a lot of processes hung waiting for page_writeback (or
more commonly - processes hung waiting for a lock that was held during
that writeback wait).

The page_writeback hint made Ted suggest that Dave look at this commit,
and Dave verified that reverting it makes his problems go away.

Ted says:
 "That commit fixes a race which is seen when you write into fallocated
  (and hence uninitialized) disk blocks under *very* heavy memory
  pressure.  Furthermore, although theoretically it could trigger under
  normal direct I/O writes, it only seems to trigger if you are issuing
  a huge number of AIO writes, such that a just-written page can get
  evicted from memory, and then read back into memory, before the
  workqueue has a chance to update the extent tree.

  This race has been around for a little over a year, and no one noticed
  until two months ago; it only happens under fairly exotic conditions,
  and in fact even after trying very hard to create a simple repro under
  lab conditions, we could only reproduce the problem and confirm the
  fix on production servers running MySQL on very fast PCIe-attached
  flash devices.

  Given that Dave was able to hit this problem pretty quickly, if we
  confirm that this commit is at fault, the only reasonable thing to do
  is to revert it IMO."

71db34fc43 Merge branch 'for-3.4' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux
Pull nfsd changes from Bruce Fields:

Highlights:
 - Benny Halevy and Tigran Mkrtchyan implemented some more 4.1 features,
   moving us closer to a complete 4.1 implementation.
 - Bernd Schubert fixed a long-standing problem with readdir cookies on
   ext2/3/4.
 - Jeff Layton performed a long-overdue overhaul of the server reboot
   recovery code which will allow us to deprecate the current code (a
   rather unusual user of the vfs), and give us some needed flexibility
   for further improvements.
 - Like the client, we now support numeric uid's and gid's in the
   auth_sys case, allowing easier upgrades from NFSv2/v3 to v4.x.

Plus miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanup.

Thanks to everyone!

There are also some delegation fixes waiting on vfs review that I
suppose will have to wait for 3.5.  With that done I think we'll finally
turn off the "EXPERIMENTAL" dependency for v4 (though that's mostly
symbolic as it's been on by default in distro's for a while).

And the list of 4.1 todo's should be achievable for 3.5 as well:

   http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues

though we may still want a bit more experience with it before turning it
on by default.

69e1aaddd6 Ext4 commits for 3.3 merge window; mostly cleanups and bug fixes
The changes to export dirty_writeback_interval are from Artem's s_dirt
 cleanup patch series.  The same is true of the change to remove the
 s_dirt helper functions which never got used by anyone in-tree.  I've
 run these changes by Al Viro, and am carrying them so that Artem can
 more easily fix up the rest of the file systems during the next merge
 window.  (Originally we had hopped to remove the use of s_dirt from
 ext4 during this merge window, but his patches had some bugs, so I
 ultimately ended dropping them from the ext4 tree.)

afcff5d80a ext4: remove restrictive checks for EOFBLOCKS_FL
We are going to remove the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag in the future, so this is
the first part of the removal. We can not remove it entirely just now,
since the e2fsck is still checking for it and it might cause headache to
some people. Instead, remove the restrictive checks now and the rest
later, when the new e2fsck code is out and common enough.

This is also needed because punch hole already breaks the EOFBLOCKS_FL
semantics, so it might cause the some troubles. So simply remove it.

a7967f055a ext4: always set then trimmed blocks count into len
Currently if the range to trim is too small, for example on 1K fs
the request to trim the first block, then the 'range->len' is not set
reporting wrong number of discarded block to the caller.

Fix this by always setting the 'range->len' before we return. Note that
when there is a failure (-EINVAL) caller can not depend on 'range->len'
being set properly.
