2010-08-09Fix sget() race with failing mountAl Viro
If sget() finds a matching superblock being set up, it'll grab an active reference to it and grab s_umount. That's fine - we'll wait for completion of foofs_get_sb() that way. However, if said foofs_get_sb() fails we'll end up holding the halfway-created superblock. deactivate_locked_super() called by foofs_get_sb() will just unlock the sucker since we are holding another active reference to it. What we need is a way to tell if superblock has been successfully set up. Unfortunately, neither ->s_root nor the check for MS_ACTIVE quite fit. Cheap and easy way, suitable for backport: new flag set by the (only) caller of ->get_sb(). If that flag isn't present by the time sget() grabbed s_umount on preexisting superblock it has found, it's seeing a stillborn and should just bury it with deactivate_locked_super() (and repeat the search). Longer term we want to set that flag in ->get_sb() instances (and check for it to distinguish between "sget() found us a live sb" and "sget() has allocated an sb, we need to set it up" in there, instead of checking ->s_root as we do now).

2010-08-09vfs: don't hold s_umount over close_bdev_exclusive() callTejun Heo
Fix an obscure AB-BA deadlock in get_sb_bdev(). When a superblock is mounted more than once get_sb_bdev() calls close_bdev_exclusive() to drop the extra bdev reference while holding s_umount. However, sb->s_umount nests inside bd_mutex during __invalidate_device() and close_bdev_exclusive() acquires bd_mutex during blkdev_put(); thus creating an AB-BA deadlock. This condition doesn't trigger frequently. For this condition to be visible to lockdep, the filesystem must occupy the whole device (as __invalidate_device() only grabs bd_mutex for the whole device), the FS must be mounted more than once and partition rescan should be issued while the FS is still mounted. Fix it by dropping s_umount over close_bdev_exclusive().

2010-08-09sysv: do not mark superblock dirty on remountArtem Bityutskiy
No need to mark the superblock as dirty in sysv_remount, synchronize it instead (only if mounting R/O). I did not find any docs about this file-system, and I have no possibility to test my changes. Thus, this is untested. I see other issues in sysv, e.g., why sysv_sync_fs writes only in the FSTYPE_SYSV4 case? However, it marks its SB bh's dirty for all types, and does not wait for them ever. With zero docs I'm unable to fix this. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2010-08-09BFS: clean up the superblock usageArtem Bityutskiy
BFS is a very simple FS and its superblocks contains only static information and is never changed. However, the BFS code for some misterious reasons marked its buffer head as dirty from time to time, but nothing in that buffer was ever changed. This patch removes all the BFS superblock manipulation, simply because it is not needed. It removes: 1. The si_sbh filed from 'struct bfs_sb_info' because it is not needed. We only need to read the SB once on mount to get the start of data blocks and the FS size. After this, we can forget about the SB. 2. All instances of 'mark_buffer_dirty(sbh)' for BFS SB because it is never changed. 3. The '->sync_fs()' method because there is nothing to sync (inodes are synched by VFS). 4. The '->write_super()' method, again, because the SB is never changed.

2010-08-09AFFS: wait for sb synchronization when neededArtem Bityutskiy
AFFS does not ever wait for superblock synchronization in ->put_super(), ->write_super, and ->sync_fs(). However, it should wait for synchronization in ->put_super() because it is about to be unmounted, in ->write_super() because this is periodic SB synchronization performed from a separate kernel thread, and in ->sync_fs() it should respect the 'wait' flag. This patch fixes the situation. Also, in ->put_super(), do not write the SB if it is not dirty.

2010-08-09cifs: truncate falloutChristoph Hellwig
Remove the calls to inode_newsize_ok given that we already did it as part of inode_change_ok in the beginning of cifs_setattr_(no)unix. No need to call ->truncate if cifs doesn't have one, so remove the explicit call in cifs_vmtruncate, and replace the calls to vmtruncate with truncate_setsize which is vmtruncate minus inode_newsize_ok and the call to ->truncate. Rename cifs_vmtruncate to cifs_setsize to match the new calling conventions. Question 1: why does cifs do the pagecache munging and i_size update twice for each setattr call, once opencoded in cifs_vmtruncate, and once using the VFS helpers? Question 2: what is supposed to be protected by i_lock in cifs_vmtruncate? Do we need it around the call to inode_change_ok?

2010-08-09pass a struct path to vfs_statfsChristoph Hellwig
We'll need the path to implement the flags field for statvfs support. We do have it available in all callers except: - ecryptfs_statfs. This one doesn't actually need vfs_statfs but just needs to do a caller to the lower filesystem statfs method. - sys_ustat. Add a non-exported statfs_by_dentry helper for it which doesn't won't be able to fill out the flags field later on. In addition rename the helpers for statfs vs fstatfs to do_*statfs instead of the misleading vfs prefix. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2010-08-09try to get rid of races in hostfs open()Al Viro
In case of mode mismatch, do *not* blindly close the descriptor another openers might be using right now. Open the underlying file with currently sufficient mode, then * if current mode has grown so that it's sufficient for us now, just close our new fd * if current mode has grown and our fd is *not* enough to cover it, close and repeat. * otherwise, install our fd if the file hadn't been opened at all or dup2() our fd over the current one (and close our fd). Critical section is protected by mutex; yes, system-wide. All we do under it is a bunch of comparison and maybe an overwriting dup2() on host. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
