0640113be2 vfs: Fix /proc/<tid>/fdinfo/<fd> file handling
Cyrill Gorcunov reports that I broke the fdinfo files with commit
30a08bf2d3 ("proc: move fd symlink i_mode calculations into
tid_fd_revalidate()"), and he's quite right.

The tid_fd_revalidate() function is not just used for the <tid>/fd
symlinks, it's also used for the <tid>/fdinfo/<fd> files, and the
permission model for those are different.

So do the dynamic symlink permission handling just for symlinks, making
the fdinfo files once more appear as the proper regular files they are.

Of course, Al Viro argued (probably correctly) that we shouldn't do the
symlink permission games at all, and make the symlinks always just be
the normal 'lrwxrwxrwx'.  That would have avoided this issue too, but
since somebody noticed that the permissions had changed (which was the
reason for that original commit 30a08bf2d3 in the first place), people
do apparently use this feature.

[ Basically, you can use the symlink permission data as a cheap "fdinfo"
  replacement, since you see whether the file is open for reading and/or
  writing by just looking at st_mode of the symlink.  So the feature
  does make sense, even if the pain it has caused means we probably
  shouldn't have done it to begin with. ]

68e3e92620 Revert "mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocks"
This reverts commit 5ceb9ce6fe.

That commit seems to be the cause of the mm compation list corruption
issues that Dave Jones reported.  The locking (or rather, absense
there-of) is dubious, as is the use of the 'page' variable once it has
been found to be outside the pageblock range.

So revert it for now, we can re-visit this for 3.6.  If we even need to:
as Minchan Kim says, "The patch wasn't a bug fix and even test workload
was very theoretical".

752dc185da mm: fix warning in __set_page_dirty_nobuffers
New tmpfs use of !PageUptodate pages for fallocate() is triggering the
WARNING: at mm/page-writeback.c:1990 when __set_page_dirty_nobuffers()
is called from migrate_page_copy() for compaction.

It is anomalous that migration should use __set_page_dirty_nobuffers()
on an address_space that does not participate in dirty and writeback
accounting; and this has also been observed to insert surprising dirty
tags into a tmpfs radix_tree, despite tmpfs not using tags at all.

We should probably give migrate_page_copy() a better way to preserve the
tag and migrate accounting info, when mapping_cap_account_dirty().  But
that needs some more work: so in the interim, avoid the warning by using
a simple SetPageDirty on PageSwapBacked pages.

2f9d3df8aa vfs: move inode stat information closer together
The comment above it says "Stat data, not accessed from path walking",
but in fact some of inode fields we use for the common stat data was way
down at the end of the inode, causing unnecessary cache misses for the
common stat operations.

The inode structure is pretty big, and this can change padding depending
on field width, but at least on the common 64-bit configurations this
doesn't change the size.  Some of our inode layout has historically been
to tro to avoid unnecessary padding fields, but cache locality is at
least as important for layout, if not more.

Noticed by looking at kernel profiles, and noticing that the "i_blkbits"
access stood out like a sore thumb.

cc8394d86f dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadata
This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin
pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_.  This,
read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the
live target.

Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time.  The pool's status
line will give the block location for the current msnap.

Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the
thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows:

    thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev>

Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools

Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things
that have traditionally been kernel side tasks:

     i) Incremental backups.

     By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have
     changed over time.  Combined with data snapshots we can ensure
     the data doesn't change while we back it up.

     A short proof of concept script can be found here:

     https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb

     ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another.

     iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin.

     iv) Asyncronous replication.

35991652ba dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init
After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that
need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to
the device.  Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN.

With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl
too.  The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened.

Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd
(that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten
milliseconds.

Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due
to a path failure.  Such retries should be handled intelligently by the
code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI
commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write
commands).  For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that
if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously
marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which
might fail too.  It can be determined if the failure happens on the
device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all
SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

f220fd4efb dm mpath: delay retry of bypassed pg
If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available,
set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying.

If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is
getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right
away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a
few seconds or even several minutes.

  d3ca8b64b9 - pty: Fix lock inversion

  fd11b42e35 - cris: fix missing tty arg in wait_event_interruptible_tty call
  d29f3ef39b - tty_lock: Localise the lock

that got removed in the meantime.

bad1a753d4 x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32
When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
support for x32 GDB  For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64.  But
at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32.  So I have to add
x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and
copy it back to GDB as int32.  Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of
user_regs_struct instead.

Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to
avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to
kernel.

Since commit 6a918bade9, the mxc_nand driver

Driver must set ecc.strength when using hardware ECC

This is because nand_scan_tail checks for correct ecc strength
settings, so we must set them up before nand_scan_tail.

The 'mtd_writev' interface calls the function assigned
to the '_write' field of a given mtd device if that is
not NULL. The block2mtd driver sets the '_writev' field
to the 'mtd_writev' function itself and thus causes a
endless loop.

This is caused by 1dbebd3256

fff3269907 tcp: reflect SYN queue_mapping into SYNACK packets
While testing how linux behaves on SYNFLOOD attack on multiqueue device
(ixgbe), I found that SYNACK messages were dropped at Qdisc level
because we send them all on a single queue.

Obvious choice is to reflect incoming SYN packet @queue_mapping to
SYNACK packet.

Under stress, my machine could only send 25.000 SYNACK per second (for
200.000 incoming SYN per second). NIC : ixgbe with 16 rx/tx queues.

After patch, not a single SYNACK is dropped.

 ->ip_route_output_flow()

Possible solution :

Instruct inet_csk_route_req() to remove FLOWI_FLAG_PRECOW_METRICS

0bc777bca4 8139cp/8139too: terminate the eeprom access with the right opmode
Currently, we terminate the eeprom access through clearing the CS by:

RTL_W8 (Cfg9346, ~EE_CS); or writeb (~EE_CS, ee_addr);

This would left the eeprom into "Config. Register Write Enable:"
state which is not expcted as the highest two bits were set to
0x11 ( expected is the "Normal" mode (0x00)). Solving this by write
0x0 instead of ~EE_CS when terminating the eeprom access.

b01af4579e 8139cp: set ring address before enabling receiver
Currently, we enable the receiver before setting the ring address which could
lead the card DMA into unexpected areas. Solving this by set the ring address
before enabling the receiver.

btw. I find and test this in qemu as I didn't have a 8139cp card in hand. please
review it carefully.

20e2a86485 cipso: handle CIPSO options correctly when NetLabel is disabled
When NetLabel is not enabled, e.g. CONFIG_NETLABEL=n, and the system
receives a CIPSO tagged packet it is dropped (cipso_v4_validate()
returns non-zero).  In most cases this is the correct and desired
behavior, however, in the case where we are simply forwarding the
traffic, e.g. acting as a network bridge, this becomes a problem.

This patch fixes the forwarding problem by providing the basic CIPSO
validation code directly in ip_options_compile() without the need for
the NetLabel or CIPSO code.  The new validation code can not perform
any of the CIPSO option label/value verification that
cipso_v4_validate() does, but it can verify the basic CIPSO option
format.

The behavior when NetLabel is enabled is unchanged.
