08a53cdce6 [PATCH] fuse: account background requests
The previous patch removed limiting the number of outstanding requests.  This
patch adds a much simpler limiting, that is also compatible with file locking
operations.

A task may have at most one synchronous request allocated.  So these requests
need not be otherwise limited.

However the number of background requests (release, forget, asynchronous
reads, interrupted requests) can grow indefinitely.  This can be used by a
malicous user to cause FUSE to allocate arbitrary amounts of unswappable
kernel memory, denying service.

For this reason add a limit for the number of background requests, and block
allocations of new requests until the number goes bellow the limit.

Also use this mechanism to block all requests until the INIT reply is
received.

ce1d5a491f [PATCH] fuse: clean up request accounting
FUSE allocated most requests from a fixed size pool filled at mount time.
However in some cases (release/forget) non-pool requests were used.  File
locking operations aren't well served by the request pool, since they may
block indefinetly thus exhausting the pool.

This patch removes the request pool and always allocates requests on demand.

0720b31597 [PATCH] fuse: simplify locking
This is in preparation for removing the global spinlock in favor of a
per-mount one.

The only critical part is the interaction between fuse_dev_release() and
fuse_fill_super(): fuse_dev_release() must see the assignment to
file->private_data, otherwise it will leak the reference to fuse_conn.

This is ensured by the fput() operation, which will synchronize the assignment
with other CPU's that may do a final fput() soon after this.

Also redundant locking is removed from fuse_fill_super(), where exclusion is
already ensured by the BKL held for this function by the VFS.

385a17bfc3 [PATCH] fuse: add O_ASYNC support to FUSE device
This adds asynchronous notification to FUSE - a FUSE server can request
O_ASYNC on a /dev/fuse file descriptor and receive SIGIO when there is input
available.

One subtlety - fuse_dev_fasync, which is called when O_ASYNC is requested,
does no locking, unlink the other methods.  I think it's unnecessary, as the
fuse_conn.fasync list is manipulated only by fasync_helper and kill_fasync,
which provide their own locking.  It would also be wrong to use the fuse_lock,
as it's a spin lock and fasync_helper can sleep.  My one concern with this is
the fuse_conn going away underneath fuse_dev_fasync - sys_fcntl takes a
reference on the file struct, so this seems not to be a problem.

7025d9ad10 [PATCH] fuse: fix fuse_dev_poll() return value
fuse_dev_poll() returned an error value instead of a poll mask.  Luckily (or
unluckily) -ENODEV does contain the POLLERR bit.

There's also a race if filesystem is unmounted between fuse_get_conn() and
spin_lock(), in which case this event will be missed by poll().

d3406ffa4a [PATCH] fuse: fix oops in fuse_send_readpages()
During heavy parallel filesystem activity it was possible to Oops the kernel.
The reason is that read_cache_pages() could skip pages which have already been
inserted into the cache by another task.  Occasionally this may result in zero
pages actually being sent, while fuse_send_readpages() relies on at least one
page being in the request.

So check this corner case and just free the request instead of trying to send
it.

Reported and tested by Konstantin Isakov.

091e881d0e [PATCH] inotify: check for NULL inode in inotify_d_instantiate
The spufs file system creates files in a directory before instantiating the
directory itself, which causes a NULL pointer access in
inotify_d_instantiate since c32ccd87bf.

I'd like to keep this behavior since it means that the user will not have
access to files in the directory before I know that I succeed in creating
everything in it.  This patch adds a simple check for the inode to keep
that working.

f5e902817f [PATCH] process accounting: take original leader's start_time in non-leader exec
The only record we have of the real-time age of a process, regardless of
execs it's done, is start_time.  When a non-leader thread exec, the
original start_time of the process is lost.  Things looking at the
real-time age of the process are fooled, for example the process accounting
record when the process finally dies.  This change makes the oldest
start_time stick around with the process after a non-leader exec.  This way
the association between PID and start_time is kept constant, which seems
correct to me.

de12a7878c [PATCH] de_thread: Don't confuse users do_each_thread.
Oleg Nesterov spotted two interesting bugs with the current de_thread
code.  The simplest is a long standing double decrement of
__get_cpu_var(process_counts) in __unhash_process.  Caused by
two processes exiting when only one was created.

The other is that since we no longer detach from the thread_group list
it is possible for do_each_thread when run under the tasklist_lock to
see the same task_struct twice.  Once on the task list as a
thread_group_leader, and once on the thread list of another
thread.

The double appearance in do_each_thread can cause a double increment
of mm_core_waiters in zap_threads resulting in problems later on in
coredump_wait.

To remedy those two problems this patch takes the simple approach
of changing the old thread group leader into a child thread.
The only routine in release_task that cares is __unhash_process,
and it can be trivially seen that we handle cleaning up a
thread group leader properly.

Since de_thread doesn't change the pid of the exiting leader process
and instead shares it with the new leader process.  I change
thread_group_leader to recognize group leadership based on the
group_leader field and not based on pids.  This should also be
slightly cheaper then the existing thread_group_leader macro.

I performed a quick audit and I couldn't see any user of
thread_group_leader that cared about the difference.

Originally from Nick Piggin, just adapted to the newer branch.

You can't check PageLRU without holding zone->lru_lock.  The page
release code can get away with it only because the page refcount is 0 at
that point. Also, you can't reliably remove pages from the LRU unless
the refcount is 0. Ever.

ad8d6f0a78 [PATCH] splice: page stealing needs to wait_on_page_writeback()
Thanks to Andrew for the good explanation of why this is so. akpm writes:

If a page is under writeback and we remove it from pagecache, it's still
going to get written to disk.  But the VFS no longer knows about that page,
nor that this page is about to modify disk blocks.

So there might be scenarios in which those
blocks-which-are-about-to-be-written-to get reused for something else.
When writeback completes, it'll scribble on those blocks.

This won't happen in ext2/ext3-style filesystems in normal mode because the
page has buffers and try_to_release_page() will fail.

But ext2 in nobh mode doesn't attach buffers at all - it just sticks the
page in a BIO, finds some new blocks, points the BIO at those blocks and
lets it rip.

While that write IO's in flight, someone could truncate the file.  Truncate
won't block on the writeout because the page isn't in pagecache any more.
So truncate will the free the blocks from the file under the page's feet.
Then something else can reallocate those blocks.  Then write data to them.

Now, the original write completes, corrupting the filesystem.

Clear the entire range, and don't increment pidx or we keep filling
the same position again and again.

6e0dd741a8 [PATCH] sysfs: zero terminate sysfs write buffers
No one should be writing a PAGE_SIZE worth of data to a normal sysfs
file, so properly terminate the buffer.

Thanks to Al Viro for pointing out my supidity here.

29e350944f splice: add SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK flag
It doesn't make the splice itself necessarily nonblocking (because the
actual file descriptors that are spliced from/to may block unless they
have the O_NONBLOCK flag set), but it makes the splice pipe operations
nonblocking.
