Clean up cifs_mount a bit by moving the code that creates new TCP
sessions into a separate function. Have that function search for an
existing socket and then create a new one if one isn't found.

Also reorganize the initializion of TCP_Server_Info a bit to prepare
for cleanup of the socket connection code.

8ecaf67a8e cifs: account for IPv6 in ses->serverName and clean up netbios name handling
The current code for setting the session serverName is IPv4-specific.
Allow it to be an IPv6 address as well. Use NIP* macros to set the
format.

This also entails increasing the length of the serverName field, so
declare a new macro for RFC1001 name length and use it in the
appropriate places.

Finally, drop the unicode_server_Name field from TCP_Server_Info since
it's not used. We can add it back later if needed, but for now it just
wastes memory.

a98ee8c1c7 [CIFS] fix regression in cifs_write_begin/cifs_write_end
The conversion to write_begin/write_end interfaces had a bug where we
were passing a bad parameter to cifs_readpage_worker. Rather than
passing the page offset of the start of the write, we needed to pass the
offset of the beginning of the page. This was reliably showing up as
data corruption in the fsx-linux test from LTP.

It also became evident that this code was occasionally doing unnecessary
read calls. Optimize those away by using the PG_checked flag to indicate
that the unwritten part of the page has been initialized.

b066a48c95 prevent cifs_writepages() from skipping unwritten pages
Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left
dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed.

In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages()
asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time.
Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling
pagevec_lookup_tag() again.

If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting
index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of
the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing
with them.  This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about
to be closed.

This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so
that none get skipped.

14fbf50d69 cifs: reinstate sharing of SMB sessions sans races
We do this by abandoning the global list of SMB sessions and instead
moving to a per-server list. This entails adding a new list head to the
TCP_Server_Info struct. The refcounting for the cifsSesInfo is moved to
a non-atomic variable. We have to protect it by a lock anyway, so there's
no benefit to making it an atomic. The list and refcount are protected
by the global cifs_tcp_ses_lock.

The code that allows these structs to be shared is extremely racy.
Disable the sharing of SMB and tcon structs for now until we can
come up with a way to do this that's race free.

We want to continue to share TCP sessions, however since they are
required for multiuser mounts. For that, implement a new (hopefully
race-free) scheme. Add a new global list of TCP sessions, and take
care to get a reference to it whenever we're dealing with one.

3ec332ef7a [CIFS] clean up server protocol handling
We're currently declaring both a sockaddr_in and sockaddr6_in on the
stack, but we really only need storage for one of them. Declare a
sockaddr struct and cast it to the proper type. Also, eliminate the
protocolType field in the TCP_Server_Info struct. It's redundant since
we have a sa_family field in the sockaddr anyway.

We may need to revisit this if SCTP is ever implemented, but for now
this will simplify the code.

CIFS over IPv6 also has a number of problems currently. This fixes all
of them that I found. Eventually, it would be nice to move more of the
code to be protocol independent, but this is a start.

3b79521093 [CIFS] Fix cifs reconnection flags
In preparation for Jeff's big umount/mount fixes to remove the possibility of
various races in cifs mount and linked list handling of sessions, sockets and
tree connections, this patch cleans up some repetitive code in cifs_mount,
and addresses a problem with ses->status and tcon->tidStatus in which we
were overloading the "need_reconnect" state with other status in that
field.  So the "need_reconnect" flag has been broken out from those
two state fields (need reconnect was not mutually exclusive from some of the
other possible tid and ses states).  In addition, a few exit cases in
cifs_mount were cleaned up, and a problem with a tcon flag (for lease support)
was not being set consistently for the 2nd mount of the same share

edf1ae4038 [CIFS] Reduce number of socket retries in large write path
CIFS in some heavy stress conditions cifs could get EAGAIN
repeatedly in smb_send2 which led to repeated retries and eventually
failure of large writes which could lead to data corruption.

There are three changes that were suggested by various network
developers:

1) convert cifs from non-blocking to blocking tcp sendmsg
(we left in the retry on failure)
2) change cifs to not set sendbuf and rcvbuf size for the socket
(let tcp autotune the buffer sizes since that works much better
in the TCP stack now)
3) if we have a partial frame sent in smb_send2, mark the tcp
session as invalid (close the socket and reconnect) so we do
not corrupt the remaining part of the SMB with the beginning
of the next SMB.

This does not appear to hurt performance measurably and has
been run in various scenarios, but it definately removes
a corruption that we were seeing in some high stress
test cases.

f696a3659f [PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission()
For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has
any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites.

This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also
added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission()
method.  In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for
performing this check.

Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are
not calling generic_permission().

Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode
is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode.

Also fix up the following code:

 - coda control file is never executable
 - sysctl files are never executable
 - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove
 - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove

4f98a2fee8 vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon").  The latter includes tmpfs.

The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.

This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists.  The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

469ee614aa [CIFS] eliminate usage of kthread_stop for cifsd
When cifs_demultiplex_thread was converted to a kthread based kernel
thread, great pains were taken to make it so that kthread_stop would be
used to bring it down. This just added unnecessary complexity since we
needed to use a signal anyway to break out of kernel_recvmsg.

Also, cifs_demultiplex_thread does a bit of cleanup as it's exiting, and
we need to be certain that this gets done. It's possible for a kthread
to exit before its main function is ever run if kthread_stop is called
soon after its creation. While I'm not sure that this is a real problem
with cifsd now, it could be at some point in the future if cifs_mount is
ever changed to bring down the thread quickly.

The upshot here is that using kthread_stop to bring down the thread just
adds extra complexity with no real benefit. This patch changes the code
to use the original method to bring down the thread, but still leaves it
so that the thread is actually started with kthread_run.

This seems to fix the deadlock caused by the reproducer in this bug
report:

2c1b861539 [CIFS] Add nodfs mount option
Older samba server (eg. 3.0.24 from Debian etch) don't work correctly,
if DFS paths are used. Such server claim that they support DFS, but fail
to process some requests with DFS paths. Starting with Linux 2.6.26,
the cifs clients starts sending DFS paths in such situations, rendering
it unuseable with older samba servers.

The nodfs mount options forces a share to be used with non DFS paths,
even if the server claims, that it supports it.

14835a3325 [CIFS] cifs: remove pointless lock and unlock of GlobalMid_Lock in header_assemble
We lock GlobalMid_Lock in header_assemble and then immediately unlock it
again without doing anything. Not sure what this was intended to do, but
remove it.

b77d753c41 [CIFS] Check that last search entry resume key is valid
Jeff's recent patch to add a last_entry field in the search structure
to better construct resume keys did not validate that the server
sent us a plausible pointer to the last entry.  This adds that.

0752f1522a [CIFS] make sure we have the right resume info before calling CIFSFindNext
When we do a seekdir() or equivalent, we usually end up doing a
FindFirst call and then call FindNext until we get to the offset that we
want. The problem is that when we call FindNext, the code usually
doesn't have the proper info (mostly, the filename of the entry from the
last search) to resume the search.

Add a "last_entry" field to the cifs_search_info that points to the last
entry in the search. We calculate this pointer by using the
LastNameOffset field from the search parms that are returned. We then
use that info to do a cifs_save_resume_key before we call CIFSFindNext.

This patch allows CIFS to reliably pass the "telldir" connectathon test.

6050247d80 [CIFS] clean up error handling in cifs_unlink
Currently, if a standard delete fails and we end up getting -EACCES
we try to clear ATTR_READONLY and try the delete again. If that
then fails with -ETXTBSY then we try a rename_pending_delete. We
aren't handling other errors appropriately though.

Another client could have deleted the file in the meantime and
we get back -ENOENT, for instance. In that case we wouldn't do a
d_drop. Instead of retrying in a separate call, simply goto the
original call and use the error handling from that.

Also, we weren't properly undoing any attribute changes that
were done before returning an error back to the caller.

directly, and as soon as possible after then. We had one place setting
it where it didn't need to be, and another place where it was missing.
