0f7fc9e4d0 [PATCH] VFS: change struct file to use struct path
This patch changes struct file to use struct path instead of having
independent pointers to struct dentry and struct vfsmount, and converts all
users of f_{dentry,vfsmnt} in fs/ to use f_path.{dentry,mnt}.

Additionally, it adds two #define's to make the transition easier for users of
the f_dentry and f_vfsmnt.

37be41241f [PATCH] lockdep: simplify some aspects of bd_mutex nesting
When we open (actually blkdev_get) a partition we need to also open (get) the
whole device that holds the partition.  The involves some limited recursion.
This patch tries to simplify some aspects of this.

As well as opening the whole device, we need to increment ->bd_part_count when
a partition is opened (this is used by rescan_partitions to avoid a rescan if
any partition is active, as that would be confusing).

The main change this patch makes is to move the inc/dec of bd_part_count into
blkdev_{get,put} for the whole rather than doing it in blkdev_{get,put} for
the partition.

More specifically, we introduce __blkdev_get and __blkdev_put which do exactly
what blkdev_{get,put} did, only with an extra "for_part" argument
(blkget_{get,put} then call the __ version with a '0' for the extra argument).

If for_part is 1, then the blkdev is being get(put) because a partition is
being opened(closed) for the first(last) time, and so bd_part_count should be
updated (on success).  The particular advantage of pushing this function down
is that the bd_mutex lock (which is needed to update bd_part_count) is already
held at the lower level.

Note that this slightly changes the semantics of bd_part_count.  Instead of
updating it whenever a partition is opened or released, it is now only updated
on the first open or last release.  This is an adequate semantic as it is only
ever tested for "== 0".

Having introduced these functions we remove the current bd_part_count updates
from do_open (which is really the body of blkdev_get) and call
__blkdev_get(...  1).  Similarly in blkget_put we remove the old bd_part_count
updates and call __blkget_put(..., 1).  This call is moved to the end of
__blkdev_put to avoid nested locks of bd_mutex.

Finally the mutex_lock on whole->bd_mutex in do_open can be removed.  It was
only really needed to protect bd_part_count, and that is now managed (and
protected) within the recursive call.

The observation that bd_part_count is central to the locking issues, and the
modifications to create __blkdev_put are from Peter Zijlstra.

24ec839c43 [PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty locking
Fix the locking of signal->tty.

Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand.  And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.

(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)

Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid.  Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles.  This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).

It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.

(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
       be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
       it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
       invocations)

(akpm: this restores the code to Alan's original version.  Andi's "Support
piping into commands in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern" (cset d025c9db) broke
it).

f46ba2235f [PATCH] fs: make nls_cp936.c handle some U00XY characters and U20AC correctly
Twenty characters in cp936 are not correctly handled.  They're all in the
U00 plane.  nls_cp936 converts all U00XY to XY but this is not correct for
some characters.(e.g.  U00B7 -> A1A4, U00A8 -> A1A7).

This problem is fixed by generating u2c_00 based on all c2u_xx and changing
uni2char() to give U00 plane a special handling.  The "€"(U20AC,80 in
cp936) is also be handled properly.

3ee6f61ca0 [PATCH] remove NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE
This patch removes the unused NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE.

Additionally, it does differently what NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE was supposed to do:

Nowadays, gcc knows best when to inline code, and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
even tells gcc globally whether to optimize for size or for speed.  Therefore,
this patch also removes all inline's from these files.

a8f48a9561 [PATCH] ext3/4: don't do orphan processing on readonly devices
If you do something like:

  # touch foo
  # tail -f foo &
  # rm foo
  # <take snapshot>
  # <mount snapshot>

you'll panic, because ext3/4 tries to do orphan list processing on the
readonly snapshot device, and:

  kernel: journal commit I/O error
  kernel: Assertion failure in journal_flush_Rsmp_e2f189ce() at journal.c:1356: "!journal->j_checkpoint_transactions"
  kernel: Kernel panic: Fatal exception

for a truly readonly underlying device, it's reasonable and necessary
to just skip orphan list processing.

c949d4eb40 [PATCH] autofs: fix error code path in autofs_fill_sb()
When kernel is compiled with old version of autofs (CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS), and
new (observed at least with 5.x.x) automount deamon is started, kernel
correctly reports incompatible version of kernel and userland daemon, but
then screws things up instead of correct handling of the error:

 autofs: kernel does not match daemon version
 =====================================
 [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
 -------------------------------------
 automount/4199 is trying to release lock (&type->s_umount_key) at:
 [<c0163b9e>] get_sb_nodev+0x76/0xa4
 but there are no more locks to release!

 other info that might help us debug this:
 no locks held by automount/4199.

 DWARF2 unwinder stuck at sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0x99
 Leftover inexact backtrace:
  =======================

and then deadlock comes.

The problem: autofs_fill_super() returns EINVAL to get_sb_nodev(), but
before that, it calls kill_anon_super() to destroy the superblock which
won't be needed.  This is however way too soon to call kill_anon_super(),
because get_sb_nodev() has to perform its own cleanup of the superblock
first (deactivate_super(), etc.).  The correct time to call
kill_anon_super() is in the autofs_kill_sb() callback, which is called by
deactivate_super() at proper time, when the superblock is ready to be
killed.

I can see the same faulty codepath also in autofs4.  This patch solves
issues in both filesystems in a same way - it postpones the
kill_anon_super() until the proper time is signalized by deactivate_super()
calling the kill_sb() callback.
