Make the slow lookup part of O_CREAT and non-O_CREAT opens common. This allows atomic_open to be hooked into the slow lookup part. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-07-14namei.c: let follow_link() do put_link() on failureAl Viro
no need for kludgy "set cookie to ERR_PTR(...) because we failed before we did actual ->follow_link() and want to suppress put_link()", no pointless check in put_link() itself. Callers checked if follow_link() has failed anyway; might as well break out of their loops if that happened, without bothering to call put_link() first.

2012-07-14affs: get rid of affs_sync_superArtem Bityutskiy
This patch makes affs stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method along with the 's_dirt' superblock flag, because they are on their way out. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblocks using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds, even if there are no diry superblocks, or there are no client file-systems which would need this (e.g., btrfs does not use '->write_super()'). So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super()' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread.

2012-07-14affs: re-structure superblock locking a bitArtem Bityutskiy
AFFS wants to serialize the superblock (the root block in AFFS terms) updates and uses 'lock_super()/unlock_super()' for these purposes.

2012-07-14affs: remove useless superblock writeout on remountArtem Bityutskiy
We do not need to write out the superblock from '->remount_fs()' because VFS has already called '->sync_fs()' by this time and the superblock has already been written out.

2012-07-14affs: stop setting bm_flagsArtem Bityutskiy
AFFS stores values '1' and '2' in 'bm_flags', and I fail to see any logic when it prefers one or another. AFFS writes '1' only from '->put_super()', while '->sync_fs()' and '->write_super()' store value '2'. So on the first glance, it looks like we want to have '1' if we unmount. However, this does not really happen in these cases: 1. superblock is written via 'write_super()' then we unmount; 2. we re-mount R/O, then unmount. which are quite typical. I could not find good documentation describing this field, except of one random piece of documentation in the internet which says that -1 means that the root block is valid, which is not consistent with what we have in the Linux AFFS driver. Jan Kara commented on this: "I have some vague recollection that on Amiga boolean was usually encoded as: 0 == false, ~0 == -1 == true. But it has been ages..." Thus, my conclusion is that value of '1' is as good as value of '2' and we can just always use '2'. An Jan Kara suggested to go further: "generally bm_flags handling looks strange. If they are 0, we mount fs read only and thus cannot change them. If they are != 0, we write 2 there. So IMHO if you just removed bm_flags setting, nothing will really happen." So this patch removes the bm_flags setting completely. This makes the "clean" argument of the 'affs_commit_super()' function unneeded, so it is also removed.

2012-07-14e1000e: fix test for PHY being accessible on 82577/8/9 and I217Bruce Allan
Occasionally, the PHY can be initially inaccessible when the first read of a PHY register, e.g. PHY_ID1, happens (signified by the returned value 0xFFFF) but subsequent accesses of the PHY work as expected. Add a retry counter similar to how it is done in the generic e1000_get_phy_id(). Also, when the PHY is completely inaccessible (i.e. when subsequent reads of the PHY_IDx registers returns all F's) and the MDIO access mode must be set to slow before attempting to read the PHY ID again, the functions that do these latter two actions expect the SW/FW/HW semaphore is not already set so the semaphore must be released before and re-acquired after calling them otherwise there is an unnecessarily inordinate amount of delay during device initialization.

2012-07-13x86/vsyscall: allow seccomp filter in vsyscall=emulateWill Drewry
If a seccomp filter program is installed, older static binaries and distributions with older libc implementations (glibc 2.13 and earlier) that rely on vsyscall use will be terminated regardless of the filter program policy when executing time, gettimeofday, or getcpu. This is only the case when vsyscall emulation is in use (vsyscall=emulate is the default). This patch emulates system call entry inside a vsyscall=emulate by populating regs->ax and regs->orig_ax with the system call number prior to calling into seccomp such that all seccomp-dependencies function normally. Additionally, system call return behavior is emulated in line with other vsyscall entrypoints for the trace/trap cases.

2012-07-13xfs: prevent recursion in xfs_buf_iorequestChristoph Hellwig
If the b_iodone handler is run in calling context in xfs_buf_iorequest we can run into a recursion where xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest because an I/O error happened, which keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest. This chain will usually not take long because the filesystem gets shut down because of log I/O errors, but even over a short time it can cause stack overflows if run on the same context. As a short term workaround make sure we always call the iodone handler in workqueue context.

2012-07-13block: fix infinite loop in __getblk_slowJeff Moyer
Commit 080399aaaf35 ("block: don't mark buffers beyond end of disk as mapped") exposed a bug in __getblk_slow that causes mount to hang as it loops infinitely waiting for a buffer that lies beyond the end of the disk to become uptodate. The problem was initially reported by Torsten Hilbrich here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/18/54 and also reported independently here: http://www.sysresccd.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4511 and then Richard W.M. Jones and Marcos Mello noted a few separate bugzillas also associated with the same issue. This patch has been confirmed to fix: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835019 The main problem is here, in __getblk_slow: for (;;) { struct buffer_head * bh; int ret; bh = __find_get_block(bdev, block, size); if (bh) return bh; ret = grow_buffers(bdev, block, size); if (ret < 0) return NULL; if (ret == 0) free_more_memory(); } __find_get_block does not find the block, since it will not be marked as mapped, and so grow_buffers is called to fill in the buffers for the associated page. I believe the for (;;) loop is there primarily to retry in the case of memory pressure keeping grow_buffers from succeeding. However, we also continue to loop for other cases, like the block lying beond the end of the disk. So, the fix I came up with is to only loop when grow_buffers fails due to memory allocation issues (return value of 0). The attached patch was tested by myself, Torsten, and Rich, and was found to resolve the problem in call cases.

2012-07-13ARM: vexpress: Config option for early printk consolePawel Moll
Versatile Express platform can be used in different configurations, the console UART used by early printk may be located at different addresses in the address space. This patch makes it possible to select the base address of a PL011 UART to be used as a console output in the kernel configuration. The default behaviour is still the heuristic detecting memory map on Cortex-A core tiles. The zImage decompressor will use the same configuration values or print out nothing if DEBUG_LL is not enabled. Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@arm.com>
2012-07-13ARM: vexpress: Add Device Tree for V2P-CA15_CA7 core tilePawel Moll
This patch adds Device Tree file for the CoreTile Express A15x2 A7x3 (V2P-CA15_CA7). Note that the A7 cpu nodes are commented out, as the big.LITTLE-relevant patches are not upstreamed yet. Till this time one can use the board with two A15 cores only, keeping the A7s in reset by adding the following setting to the board.txt file in Versatile Express configuration tree: SCC: 0x018 0x00001FFF Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@arm.com>
