We have a few other use cases of ktime_get_monotonic_offset() which
can be optimized with ktime_mono_to_real(). The timerfd code uses the
offset only for comparison, so we can use ktime_mono_to_real(0) for
this as well.
Funny enough text size shrinks with that on ARM and x8664 !?

Commit 8c7424cff6 "nfsd4: don't try to encode conflicting owner if low
on space" forgot to free conf->data in nfsd4_encode_lockt and before
sign conf->data to NULL in nfsd4_encode_lock_denied, causing a leak.
Worse, kfree() can be called on an uninitialized pointer in the case of
a succesful lock (or one that fails for a reason other than a conflict).
(Note that lock->lk_denied.ld_owner.data appears it should be zero here,
until you notice that it's one arm of a union the other arm of which is
written to in the succesful case by the
memcpy(&lock->lk_resp_stateid, &lock_stp->st_stid.sc_stateid,
sizeof(stateid_t));
in nfsd4_lock(). In the 32-bit case this overwrites ld_owner.data.)

There's a potential race between a lease break and DELEGRETURN call.
Suppose a lease break comes in and queues the workqueue job for a
delegation, but it doesn't run just yet. Then, a DELEGRETURN comes in
finds the delegation and calls destroy_delegation on it to unhash it and
put its primary reference.
Next, the workqueue job runs and queues the delegation back onto the
del_recall_lru list, issues the CB_RECALL and puts the final reference.
With that, the final reference to the delegation is put, but it's still
on the LRU list.
When we go to unhash a delegation, it's because we intend to get rid of
it soon afterward, so we don't want lease breaks to mess with it once
that occurs. Fix this by bumping the dl_time whenever we unhash a
delegation, to ensure that lease breaks don't monkey with it.
I believe this is a regression due to commit 02e1215f9f7 (nfsd: Avoid
taking state_lock while holding inode lock in nfsd_break_one_deleg).
Prior to that, the state_lock was held in the lm_break callback itself,
and that would have prevented this race.

If nfs4_setlease succesfully acquires a new delegation, then another
task breaks the delegation before we reach hash_delegation_locked, then
the breaking task will see an empty fi_delegations list and do nothing.
The client will receive an open reply incorrectly granting a delegation
and will never receive a recall.
Move more of the delegation fields to be protected by the fi_lock. It's
more granular than the state_lock and in later patches we'll want to
be able to rely on it in addition to the state_lock.
Attempt to acquire a delegation. If that succeeds, take the spinlocks
and then check to see if the file has had a conflict show up since then.
If it has, then we assume that the lease is no longer valid and that
we shouldn't hand out a delegation.
There's also one more potential (but very unlikely) problem. If the
lease is broken before the delegation is hashed, then it could leak.
In the event that the fi_delegations list is empty, reset the
fl_break_time to jiffies so that it's cleaned up ASAP by
the normal lease handling code.

xfstests generic/127 detected this problem.
With commit 7fc34a62ca4434a79c68e23e70ed26111b7a4cf8, now fsync will only flush
data within the passed range. This is the cause of the above problem,
-- btrfs's fsync has a stage called 'sync log' which will wait for all the
ordered extents it've recorded to finish.
In xfstests/generic/127, with mixed operations such as truncate, fallocate,
punch hole, and mapwrite, we get some pre-allocated extents, and mapwrite will
mmap, and then msync. And I find that msync will wait for quite a long time
(about 20s in my case), thanks to ftrace, it turns out that the previous
fallocate calls 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' to flush dirty pages, but as the
range of dirty pages may be larger than 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' wants,
there can be some ordered extents created but not getting corresponding pages
flushed, then they're left in memory until we fsync which runs into the
stage 'sync log', and fsync will just wait for the system writeback thread
to flush those pages and get ordered extents finished, so the latency is
inevitable.
This adds a flush similar to btrfs_start_ordered_extent() in
btrfs_wait_logged_extents() to fix that.

Applying restrictive seccomp filter programs to large or diverse
codebases often requires handling threads which may be started early in
the process lifetime (e.g., by code that is linked in). While it is
possible to apply permissive programs prior to process start up, it is
difficult to further restrict the kernel ABI to those threads after that
point.
This change adds a new seccomp syscall flag to SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER for
synchronizing thread group seccomp filters at filter installation time.
When calling seccomp(SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER, SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC,
filter) an attempt will be made to synchronize all threads in current's
threadgroup to its new seccomp filter program. This is possible iff all
threads are using a filter that is an ancestor to the filter current is
attempting to synchronize to. NULL filters (where the task is running as
SECCOMP_MODE_NONE) are also treated as ancestors allowing threads to be
transitioned into SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER. If prctrl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS,
...) has been set on the calling thread, no_new_privs will be set for
all synchronized threads too. On success, 0 is returned. On failure,
the pid of one of the failing threads will be returned and no filters
will have been applied.
The race conditions against another thread are:
- requesting TSYNC (already handled by sighand lock)
- performing a clone (already handled by sighand lock)
- changing its filter (already handled by sighand lock)
- calling exec (handled by cred_guard_mutex)
The clone case is assisted by the fact that new threads will have their
seccomp state duplicated from their parent before appearing on the tasklist.
Holding cred_guard_mutex means that seccomp filters cannot be assigned
while in the middle of another thread's exec (potentially bypassing
no_new_privs or similar). The call to de_thread() may kill threads waiting
for the mutex.
Changes across threads to the filter pointer includes a barrier.

The current code always selects XPRT_TRANSPORT_BC_TCP for the back
channel, even when the forward channel was not TCP (eg, RDMA). When
a 4.1 mount is attempted with RDMA, the server panics in the TCP BC
code when trying to send CB_NULL.
Instead, construct the transport protocol number from the forward
channel transport or'd with XPRT_TRANSPORT_BC. Transports that do
not support bi-directional RPC will not have registered a "BC"
transport, causing create_backchannel_client() to fail immediately.

Normally GFP_KERNEL is ok here, but there is now a rarely used code path
relating to deallocation of unlinked inodes (in certain corner cases)
which if hit at times of memory shortage can cause recursion while
trying to free memory.
One solution would be to try and move the gfs2_glock_get() call so
that it is no longer called while another glock is held, but that
doesn't look at all easy, so GFP_NOFS is the best solution for the
time being.

We must not leave items on the LRU list with GLF_LOCK set, since
they can be removed if the glock is brought back into use, which
may then potentially result in a hang, waiting for GLF_LOCK to
clear.
It doesn't happen very often, since it requires a glock that has
not been used for a long time to be brought back into use at the
same moment that the shrinker is part way through disposing of
glocks.
The fix is to set GLF_LOCK at a later time, when we already know
that the other locks can be obtained. Also, we now only release
the lru_lock in case a resched is needed, rather than on every
iteration.

Function gfs2_glock_dq_wait is supposed to dequeue a glock and then
wait for the lock to be demoted. The problem is, if this is a shared
lock, its demote will depend on the other holders, which means you
might end up waiting forever because the other process is blocked.
This problem is especially apparent when dealing with nested flocks.

The read() of timerfd files allows to fetch the number of timer ticks
while there is no way to set it back from userspace.
To restore the timer's state as it was at checkpoint moment we need
a path to bring @ticks back. Initially I thought about writing ticks
back via write() interface but it seems such API is somehow obscure.
Instead implement timerfd_ioctl() method with TFD_IOC_SET_TICKS
command which allows to adjust @ticks into non-zero value waking
up the waiters.
I wrapped code with CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE which can be
dropped off if there users except c/r camp appear.

For checkpoint/restore of timerfd files we need to know how exactly
the timer were armed, to be able to recreate it on restore stage.
Thus implement show_fdinfo method which provides enough information
for that.
One of significant changes I think is the addition of @settime_flags
member. Currently there are two flags TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME and
TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET, and the second can be found from
@might_cancel variable but in case if the flags will be extended
in future we most probably will have to somehow remember them
explicitly anyway so I guss doing that right now won't hurt.
To not bloat the timerfd_ctx structure I've converted @expired
to short integer and defined @settime_flags as short too.
v2 (by avagin@, vdavydov@ and tglx@):
- Add it_value/it_interval fields
- Save flags being used in timerfd_setup in context

The first 8 ops of the compound are zeroed since they're a part of the

the memory on the fly in nfsd4_decode_compound(). Other than code
recently fixed by 01529e3f8179 "NFSD: Fix memory leak in encoding denied
lock", I don't know of any examples of code depending on this
initialization. But it definitely seems possible, and I'd rather be

Special kernel keys, such as those used to hold DNS results for AFS, CIFS and
NFS and those used to hold idmapper results for NFS, used to be
'invalidateable' with key_revoke(). However, since the default permissions for
keys were reduced:
Commit: 96b5c8fea6c0861621051290d705ec2e971963f1
KEYS: Reduce initial permissions on keys
it has become impossible to do this.
Add a key flag (KEY_FLAG_ROOT_CAN_INVAL) that will permit a key to be
invalidated by root. This should not be used for system keyrings as the
garbage collector will try and remove any invalidate key. For system keyrings,
KEY_FLAG_ROOT_CAN_CLEAR can be used instead.
After this, from userspace, keyctl_invalidate() and "keyctl invalidate" can be
used by any possessor of CAP_SYS_ADMIN (typically root) to invalidate DNS and
idmapper keys. Invalidated keys are immediately garbage collected and will be
immediately rerequested if needed again.
