6d08f2c713 proc: make sure mem_open() doesn't pin the target's memory
Once /proc/pid/mem is opened, the memory can't be released until
mem_release() even if its owner exits.

Change mem_open() to do atomic_inc(mm_count) + mmput(), this only
pins mm_struct. Change mem_rw() to do atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_count)
before access_remote_vm(), this verifies that this mm is still alive.

I am not sure what should mem_rw() return if atomic_inc_not_zero()
fails. With this patch it returns zero to match the "mm == NULL" case,
may be it should return -EINVAL like it did before e268337d.

Perhaps it makes sense to add the additional fatal_signal_pending()
check into the main loop, to ensure we do not hold this memory if
the target task was oom-killed.

572d34b946 proc: unify mem_read() and mem_write()
No functional changes, cleanup and preparation.

mem_read() and mem_write() are very similar. Move this code into the
new common helper, mem_rw(), which takes the additional "int write"
argument.

7d73101921 mtd: fix merge conflict resolution breakage
This patch fixes merge conflict resolution breakage introduced by merge
d3712b9dfc ("Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/prasad-joshi/logfs_upstream").

The commit changed 'mtd_can_have_bb()' function and made it always
return zero, which is incorrect.  Instead, we need it to return whether
the underlying flash device can have bad eraseblocks or not.  UBI needs
this information because it affects how it handles the underlying flash.
E.g., if the underlying flash is NOR, it cannot have bad blocks and any
write or erase error is fatal, and all we can do is to switch to R/O
mode.  We do not need to reserve a pool of good eraseblocks for bad
eraseblocks handling, and so on.

This patch also removes 'mtd_can_have_bb()' invocations from Logfs to
ensure correct Logfs behavior.

I've tested that with this patch UBI works on top of NOR and NAND
flashes emulated by mtdram and nandsim correspondingly.

This patch is based on patch from Linus Torvalds.

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/prasad-joshi/logfs_upstream

* tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/prasad-joshi/logfs_upstream:
  Logfs: Allow NULL block_isbad() methods
  logfs: Grow inode in delete path
  logfs: Free areas before calling generic_shutdown_super()
  logfs: remove useless BUG_ON
  MAINTAINERS: Add Prasad Joshi in LogFS maintiners

  logfs: set superblock shutdown flag after generic sb shutdown
  logfs: take write mutex lock during fsync and sync
  logfs: Prevent memory corruption
  logfs: update page reference count for pined pages

Fix up conflict in fs/logfs/dev_mtd.c due to semantic change in what
"mtd->block_isbad" means in commit f2933e86ad: "Logfs: Allow NULL
block_isbad() methods" clashing with the abstraction changes in the
commits 7086c19d07: "mtd: introduce mtd_block_isbad interface" and
d58b27ed58: "logfs: do not use 'mtd->block_isbad' directly".

This resolution takes the semantics from commit f2933e86ad, and just
makes mtd_block_isbad() return zero (false) if the 'block_isbad'
function is NULL.  But that also means that now "mtd_can_have_bb()"
always returns 0.

Now, "mtd_block_markbad()" will obviously return an error if the
low-level driver doesn't support bad blocks, so this is somewhat
non-symmetric, but it actually makes sense if a NULL "block_isbad"
function is considered to mean "I assume that all my blocks are always
good".

0bd90387ed logfs: Propagate page parameter to __logfs_write_inode
During GC LogFS has to rewrite each valid block to a separate segment.
Rewrite operation reads data from an old segment and writes it to a
newly allocated segment. Since every write operation changes data
block pointers maintained in inode, inode should also be rewritten.

In GC path to avoid AB-BA deadlock LogFS marks a page with
PG_pre_locked in addition to locking the page (PG_locked). The page
lock is ignored iff the page is pre-locked.

LogFS uses a special file called segment file. The segment file
maintains an 8 bytes entry for every segment. It keeps track of erase
count, level etc. for every segment.

Bad things happen with a segment belonging to the segment file is GCed

ecfd890991 logfs: set superblock shutdown flag after generic sb shutdown
While unmounting the file system LogFS calls generic_shutdown_super.
The function does file system independent superblock shutdown.
However, it might result in call file system specific inode eviction.

LogFS marks FS shutting down by setting bit LOGFS_SB_FLAG_SHUTDOWN in
super->s_flags. Since, inode eviction might call truncate on inode,
following BUG is observed when file system is unmounted:

9e622d6bea Btrfs: fix enospc error caused by wrong checks of the chunk
When we did sysbench test for inline files, enospc error happened easily though
there was lots of free disk space which could be allocated for new chunks.

Reproduce steps:
 # mkfs.btrfs -b $((2 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024)) <test partition>
 # mount <test partition> /mnt
 # ulimit -n 102400
 # cd /mnt
 # sysbench --num-threads=1 --test=fileio --file-num=81920 \
 > --file-total-size=80M --file-block-size=1K --file-io-mode=sync \
 > --file-test-mode=seqwr prepare
 # sysbench --num-threads=1 --test=fileio --file-num=81920 \
 > --file-total-size=80M --file-block-size=1K --file-io-mode=sync \
 > --file-test-mode=seqwr run
 <soon later, BUG_ON() was triggered by enospc error>

The reason of this bug is:
Now, we can reserve space which is larger than the free space in the chunks if
we have enough free disk space which can be used for new chunks. By this way,
the space allocator should allocate a new chunk by force if there is no free
space in the free space cache. But there are two wrong checks which break this
operation.

One is
	if (ret == -ENOSPC && num_bytes > min_alloc_size)
in btrfs_reserve_extent(), it is wrong, we should try to allocate a new chunk
even we fail to allocate free space by minimum allocable size.

The other is
	if (space_info->force_alloc)
		force = space_info->force_alloc;
in do_chunk_alloc(). It makes the allocator ignore CHUNK_ALLOC_FORCE If someone
sets ->force_alloc to CHUNK_ALLOC_LIMITED, and makes the enospc error happen.

Fix these two wrong checks. Especially the second one, we fix it by changing
the value of CHUNK_ALLOC_LIMITED and CHUNK_ALLOC_FORCE, and make
CHUNK_ALLOC_FORCE greater than CHUNK_ALLOC_LIMITED since CHUNK_ALLOC_FORCE has
higher priority. And if the value which is passed in by the caller is greater
than ->force_alloc, use the passed value.

cluster starts in a bitmap, but we've been using min_start to indicate where

essentially means we're constantly searching from the start of any bitmap we
find, which completely negates all the trouble we go to in order to setup a
cluster.  So start using window_start to make sure we actually use the area we
found.  Thanks,

8bedd51b61 Btrfs: Check for NULL page in extent_range_uptodate
A user has encountered a NULL pointer kernel oops in btrfs when
encountering media errors.  The problem has been identified
as an unhandled NULL pointer returned from find_get_page().
This modification simply checks for a NULL page, and returns
with an error if found (the extent_range_uptodate() function
returns 1 on errors).

After testing this patch, the user reported that the error with
the NULL pointer oops was solved.  However, there is still a
remaining problem with a thread becoming stuck in
wait_on_page_locked(page) in the read_extent_buffer_pages(...)
function in extent_io.c

       for (i = start_i; i < num_pages; i++) {
               page = extent_buffer_page(eb, i);
               wait_on_page_locked(page);
               if (!PageUptodate(page))
                       ret = -EIO;
       }

This patch leaves the issue with the locked page yet to be resolved.

58ded24f0f eCryptfs: Fix oops when printing debug info in extent crypto functions
If pages passed to the eCryptfs extent-based crypto functions are not
mapped and the module parameter ecryptfs_verbosity=1 was specified at
loading time, a NULL pointer dereference will occur.

Note that this wouldn't happen on a production system, as you wouldn't
pass ecryptfs_verbosity=1 on a production system. It leaks private
information to the system logs and is for debugging only.

The debugging info printed in these messages is no longer very useful
and rather than doing a kmap() in these debugging paths, it will be
better to simply remove the debugging paths completely.

a261a03904 eCryptfs: Check inode changes in setattr
Most filesystems call inode_change_ok() very early in ->setattr(), but
eCryptfs didn't call it at all. It allowed the lower filesystem to make
the call in its ->setattr() function. Then, eCryptfs would copy the
appropriate inode attributes from the lower inode to the eCryptfs inode.

This patch changes that and actually calls inode_change_ok() on the
eCryptfs inode, fairly early in ecryptfs_setattr(). Ideally, the call
would happen earlier in ecryptfs_setattr(), but there are some possible
inode initialization steps that must happen first.

Since the call was already being made on the lower inode, the change in
functionality should be minimal, except for the case of a file extending
truncate call. In that case, inode_newsize_ok() was never being
called on the eCryptfs inode. Rather than inode_newsize_ok() catching
maximum file size errors early on, eCryptfs would encrypt zeroed pages
and write them to the lower filesystem until the lower filesystem's
write path caught the error in generic_write_checks(). This patch
introduces a new function, called ecryptfs_inode_newsize_ok(), which
checks if the new lower file size is within the appropriate limits when
the truncate operation will be growing the lower file.

In summary this change prevents eCryptfs truncate operations (and the
resulting page encryptions), which would exceed the lower filesystem
limits or FSIZE rlimits, from ever starting.

5e6f0d7690 eCryptfs: Make truncate path killable
ecryptfs_write() handles the truncation of eCryptfs inodes. It grabs a
page, zeroes out the appropriate portions, and then encrypts the page
before writing it to the lower filesystem. It was unkillable and due to
the lack of sparse file support could result in tying up a large portion
of system resources, while encrypting pages of zeros, with no way for
the truncate operation to be stopped from userspace.

This patch adds the ability for ecryptfs_write() to detect a pending
fatal signal and return as gracefully as possible. The intent is to
leave the lower file in a useable state, while still allowing a user to
break out of the encryption loop. If a pending fatal signal is detected,
the eCryptfs inode size is updated to reflect the modified inode size
and then -EINTR is returned.

ecryptfs_write() can enter an infinite loop when truncating a file to a
size larger than 4G. This only happens on architectures where size_t is
represented by 32 bits.

This was caused by a size_t overflow due to it incorrectly being used to
store the result of a calculation which uses potentially large values of
type loff_t.

ce59791936 sysfs: Complain bitterly about attempts to remove files from nonexistent directories.
Recently an OOPS was observed from the usb serial io_ti driver when it tried to remove
sysfs directories.  Upon investigation it turns out this driver was always buggy
and that a recent sysfs change had stopped guarding itself against removing attributes
from sysfs directories that had already been removed. :(

Historically we have been silent about attempting to files from nonexistent sysfs
directories and have politely returned error codes.  That has resulted in people writing
broken code that ignores the error codes.

Issue a kernel WARNING and a stack backtrace to make it clear in no uncertain
terms that abusing sysfs is not ok, and the callers need to fix their code.

This change transforms the io_ti OOPS into a more comprehensible error message
and stack backtrace.

85e72aa538 proc: clear_refs: do not clear reserved pages
/proc/pid/clear_refs is used to clear the Referenced and YOUNG bits for
pages and corresponding page table entries of the task with PID pid, which
includes any special mappings inserted into the page tables in order to
provide things like vDSOs and user helper functions.

On ARM this causes a problem because the vectors page is mapped as a
global mapping and since ec706dab ("ARM: add a vma entry for the user
accessible vector page"), a VMA is also inserted into each task for this
page to aid unwinding through signals and syscall restarts.  Since the
vectors page is required for handling faults, clearing the YOUNG bit (and
subsequently writing a faulting pte) means that we lose the vectors page
*globally* and cannot fault it back in.  This results in a system deadlock
on the next exception.

To see this problem in action, just run:

	$ echo 1 > /proc/self/clear_refs

on an ARM platform (as any user) and watch your system hang.  I think this
has been the case since 2.6.37

This patch avoids clearing the aforementioned bits for reserved pages,
therefore leaving the vectors page intact on ARM.  Since reserved pages
are not candidates for swap, this change should not have any impact on the
usefulness of clear_refs.
