e9baf6e598 [PATCH] return to old errno choice in mkdir() et.al.
In case when both EEXIST and EROFS would apply we used to
return the former in mkdir(2) and friends.  Lest anyone suspects
us of being consistent, in the same situation knfsd gave clients
nfs_erofs...

	ro-bind series had switched the syscall side of things to
returning -EROFS and immediately broke an application - namely,
mkdir -p.  Patch restores the original behaviour...

adbecb128c [PATCH] dup_fd() part 4 - race fix
Parent _can_ be a clone task, contrary to the comment.  Moreover,
more files could be opened while we allocate a copy, in which case
we end up copying only part into new descriptor table.  Since what
we get _is_ affected by all changes in the old range, we can get
rather weird effects - e.g.
	dup2(0, 1024); close(0);
in parallel with fork() resulting in child that sees the effect of
close(), but not that of dup2() done just before that close().

What we need is to recalculate the open_count after having reacquired
->file_lock and if external fdtable we'd just allocated is too small for
it, free the sucker and redo allocation.

46c8ac7425 nfs/lsm: make NFSv4 set LSM mount options
NFSv3 get_sb operations call into the LSM layer to set security options passed
from userspace.  NFSv4 hooks were not originally added since it was reasonably
late in the merge window and NFSv3 was the only thing that had regressed (v4
has never supported any LSM options)

This patch makes NFSv4 call into the LSM to set security options rather than
just blindly dropping them with no notice to the user as happens today.  This
patch was tested in a simple NFSv4 environment with the context= option and
appeared to work as expected.

If, however, the minor version field is incorrect, then we need to

b0b539739f NFS: Ensure that 'noac' and/or 'actimeo=0' turn off attribute caching
Both the 'noac' and 'actimeo=0' mount options should ensure that attributes
are not cached, however a bug in nfs_attribute_timeout() means that
currently, the attributes may in fact get cached for up to one jiffy. This
has been seen to cause corruption in some applications.

The reason for the bug is that the time_in_range() test returns 'true' as
long as the current time lies between nfsi->read_cache_jiffies and
nfsi->read_cache_jiffies + nfsi->attrtimeo. In other words, if jiffies
equals nfsi->read_cache_jiffies, then we still cache the attribute data.

1930479c4b ext4: mballoc fix mb_normalize_request algorithm for 1KB block size filesystems
In case of inode preallocation, the number of blocks to allocate depends
on the file size and it is calculated in ext4_mb_normalize_request().
Each group in the filesystem is then checked to find one that can be
used for allocation; this is done in ext4_mb_good_group().

When a file bigger than 4MB is created, the requested number of blocks
to preallocate, calculated by ext4_mb_normalize_request is 4096.
However for a filesystem with 1KB block size, the maximum size of the
block buddies used by the multiblock allocator is 2048, so none of
groups in the filesystem satisfies the search criteria in
ext4_mb_good_group(). Scanning all the filesystem groups impacts
performance.

This was demonstrated by using a freshly created, 70GB, 1k block
filesystem, with caches dropped write before the test via
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches, and with the filesystem mounted with
nodelalloc and nodealloc,nomballoc.  The time to write an 8 megabyte
file using "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/fo bs=8k count=1k conv=fsync"
took 35.5091 seconds (236kB/s) with nodellaloc, and 0.233754 seconds
(35.9 MB/s) with the nodelloc,nomballoc options.  With a 1TB partition,
it took several minutes to write 8MB!

This patch modifies the algorithm in ext4_mb_normalize_group_request to
calculate the number of blocks to allocate by taking into account the
maximum size of free blocks chunks handled by the multiblock allocator.

It has also been tested for filesystems with 2KB and 4KB block sizes to
ensure that those cases don't regress.

887b3ece65 9p: fix error path during early mount
There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger
a kernel bug for certain types of failure.  This patch reorganizes the
cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior.

This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of
configuration and initialization.  Keeping the fd transport separate
from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in
practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

b32a09db4f add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing more robust
match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure
that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or
forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer.

There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options().  I believe it currently
can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious.

The source string is a substing of the mount options.  The kernel silently
truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero.  See
compat_sys_mount() and do_mount().

The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from
name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX.

We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.  PATH_MAX is 4096.  As far as
I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096.

Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct.  It
doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

f36f21ecca Fix misuses of bdevname()
bdevname() fills the buffer that it is given as a parameter, so calling
strcpy() or snprintf() on the returned value is redundant (and probably not
guaranteed to work - I don't think strcpy and snprintf support overlapping
buffers.)

78bb6cb9a8 fuse: add flag to turn on big writes
Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests.  In theory all
fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's
nothing in the API to prevent it.  Unfortunately there's a known case in
NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption.  There could also be
other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would
result in bugs.

To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default,
but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

4cd1a8fc3d memcg: fix possible panic when CONFIG_MM_OWNER=y
When mm destruction happens, we should pass mm_update_next_owner() the old mm.
 But unfortunately new mm is passed in exec_mmap().

Thus, kernel panic is possible when a multi-threaded process uses exec().

Also, the owner member comment description is wrong.  mm->owner does not
necessarily point to the thread group leader.

706322496b Fix hfsplus oops on image without extents
Fix an oops with a corrupted hfs+ image.

See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10548 for details.

Problem is that we call hfs_btree_open() from hfsplus_fill_super() to set
HFSPLUS_SB(sb).[ext_tree|cat_tree] Both trees are still NULL at this moment.
If hfs_btree_open() fails for any reason it calls iput() on the page, which
gets to hfsplus_releasepage() which tries to access HFSPLUS_SB(sb).* which is
still NULL and oopses while dereferencing it.

289f8e27ed capabilities: add bounding set to /proc/self/status
There is currently no way to query the bounding set of another task.  As there
appears to be no security reason not to, and as Michael Kerrisk points out the
following valid reasons to do so exist:

* consistency (I can see all of the other per-thread/process sets in
  /proc/.../status)

* debugging -- I could imagine that it would make the job of debugging an
  application that uses capabilities a little simpler.

this patch adds the bounding set to /proc/self/status right after the
effective set.

9377abd026 quota: don't call sync_fs() from vfs_quota_off() when there's no quota turn off
Sometimes, vfs_quota_off() is called on a partially set up super block (for
example when fill_super() fails for some reason).  In such cases we cannot
call ->sync_fs() because it can Oops because of not properly filled in super
block.  So in case we find there's not quota to turn off, we just skip
everything and return which fixes the above problem.

dget(dentry->d_parent) --> dget_parent(dentry)

unlock_parent() is racy and unnecessary.  Replace single caller with
unlock_dir().

There are several other suspect uses of ->d_parent in ecryptfs...
