Call cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent() to maintain interactivity.
Before this patch:
void shrink_dcache_parent(struct dentry * parent)
{
while ((found = select_parent(parent, &dispose)) != 0)
shrink_dentry_list(&dispose);
}
select_parent() populates the dispose list with dentries which
shrink_dentry_list() then deletes. select_parent() carefully uses
need_resched() to avoid doing too much work at once. But neither
shrink_dcache_parent() nor its called functions call cond_resched(). So
once need_resched() is set select_parent() will return single dentry
dispose list which is then deleted by shrink_dentry_list(). This is
inefficient when there are a lot of dentry to process. This can cause
softlockup and hurts interactivity on non preemptable kernels.
This change adds cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent(). The benefit
of this is that need_resched() is quickly cleared so that future calls
to select_parent() are able to efficiently return a big batch of dentry.
These additional cond_resched() do not seem to impact performance, at
least for the workload below.
Here is a program which can cause soft lockup if other system activity
sets need_resched().
int main()
{
struct rlimit rlim;
int i;
int f[100000];
char buf[20];
struct timeval t1, t2;
double diff;
/* cleanup past run */
system("rm -rf x");
/* boost nfile rlimit */
rlim.rlim_cur = 200000;
rlim.rlim_max = 200000;
if (setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, &rlim))
err(1, "setrlimit");
/* make directory for files */
if (mkdir("x", 0700))
err(1, "mkdir");
if (gettimeofday(&t1, NULL))
err(1, "gettimeofday");
/* populate directory with open files */
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "x/%d", i);
f[i] = open(buf, O_CREAT);
if (f[i] == -1)
err(1, "open");
}
/* close some of the files */
for (i = 0; i < 85000; i++)
close(f[i]);
/* unlink all files, even open ones */
system("rm -rf x");
if (gettimeofday(&t2, NULL))
err(1, "gettimeofday");
diff = (((double)t2.tv_sec * 1000000 + t2.tv_usec) -
((double)t1.tv_sec * 1000000 + t1.tv_usec));
printf("done: %g elapsed\n", diff/1e6);
return 0;

When we run the crackerjack testsuite, the inotify_add_watch test is
stalled.
This is caused by the invalid mask 0 - the task is waiting for the event
but it never comes. inotify_add_watch() should return -EINVAL as it did
before commit 676a0675cf92 ("inotify: remove broken mask checks causing
unmount to be EINVAL"). That commit removes the invalid mask check, but
that check is needed.
Check the mask's ALL_INOTIFY_BITS before the inotify_arg_to_mask() call.
If none are set, just return -EINVAL.
Because IN_UNMOUNT is in ALL_INOTIFY_BITS, this change will not trigger
the problem that above commit fixed.

If nfsd4_do_encode_secinfo() can't find GSS info that matches an
export security flavor, it assumes the flavor is not a GSS
pseudoflavor, and simply puts it on the wire.
However, if this XDR encoding logic is given a legitimate GSS
pseudoflavor but the RPC layer says it does not support that
pseudoflavor for some reason, then the server leaks GSS pseudoflavor
numbers onto the wire.
I confirmed this happens by blacklisting rpcsec_gss_krb5, then
attempted a client transition from the pseudo-fs to a Kerberos-only
share. The client received a flavor list containing the Kerberos
pseudoflavor numbers, rather than GSS tuples.
The encoder logic can check that each pseudoflavor in flavs[] is
less than MAXFLAVOR before writing it into the buffer, to prevent
this. But after "nflavs" is written into the XDR buffer, the
encoder can't skip writing flavor information into the buffer when
it discovers the RPC layer doesn't support that flavor.
So count the number of valid flavors as they are written into the
XDR buffer, then write that count into a placeholder in the XDR
buffer when all recognized flavors have been encoded.

We're going out of our way here to remap an error to make rfc 3530
happy--but the rfc itself (nor rfc 1813, which has similar language)
gives no justification. And disagrees with local filesystem behavior,
with Linux and posix man pages, and knfsd's implemented behavior for v2
and v3.
And the documented behavior seems better, in that it gives a little more
information--you could implement the 3530 behavior using the posix
behavior, but not the other way around.
Also, the Linux client makes no attempt to remap this error in the v4
case, so it can end up just returning EEXIST to the application in a
case where it should return EISDIR.
So honestly I think the rfc's are just buggy here--or in any case it
doesn't see worth the trouble to remap this error.

"The main changes in this cycle's merge are:
- Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side
blocking, by Thomas Gleixner.
- Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov:
- allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations
can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code.
- debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements.
- suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom
processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the
TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0
after resume. This can be taken advantage of by the generic via
the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to
recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource
can be used.
- Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many
CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current
simplistic seqfile approach fails. Convert /proc/timer_list to a
proper seq_file with its own iterator.
- Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John
Stultz.
- International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code
internally currently but not exposed externally. Separate the TAI
code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer

- Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core
timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ

When testing f2fs on an SSD, I found some 128 page IOs followed by 1 page IO
were issued by f2fs_write_node_pages.
This means that there were some mishandling flows which degrades performance.
Previous f2fs_write_node_pages determines the number of pages to be written,
nr_to_write, as follows.
1. The bio_get_nr_vecs returns 129 pages.
2. The bio_alloc makes a room for 128 pages.
3. The initial 128 pages go into one bio.
4. The existing bio is submitted, and a new bio is prepared for the last 1 page.
5. Finally, sync_node_pages submits the last 1 page bio.
The problem is from the use of bio_get_nr_vecs, so this patch replace it
with max_hw_blocks using queue_max_sectors.

try_to_free_nats() is usually called with parameter nr_shrink as
"nm_i->nat_cnt - NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD"
by flush_nat_entries() during checkpointing process.
However, this is inconsistent with the actual threshold check as
"if (nm_i->nat_cnt < 2 * NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD)"
, which will ignore the free_nats requests when
NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD < nm_i->nat_cnt < 2 * NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD
So fix the threshold check condition.

This patch enables rebuilding of directory inodes which are not present in
the cache.This is done by traversing the disk clusters to find the
directory entry of the parent directory and using its i_pos to build the
inode.
The traversal is done by fat_scan_logstart() which is similar to
fat_scan() but matches i_pos values instead of names.fat_scan_logstart()
needs an inode parameter to work, for which a dummy inode is created by
it's caller fat_rebuild_parent(). This dummy inode is destroyed after the
traversal completes.
All this is done only if the nostale_ro nfs mount option is specified.

This patchset eliminates the client side ESTALE errors when a FAT
partition exported over NFS has its dentries evicted from the cache. The
idea is to find the on-disk location_'i_pos' of the dirent of the inode
that has been evicted and use it to rebuild the inode.
This patch:
Provide two possible values 'stale_rw' and 'nostale_ro' for the -o nfs
mount option.The first one allows all file operations but does not reduce
ESTALE errors on memory constrained systems. The second one eliminates
ESTALE errors but mounts the filesystem as read-only. Not specifying a
value defaults to 'stale_rw'.

On architectures where a pgd entry may be shared between user and kernel
(e.g. ARM+LPAE), freeing page tables needs a ceiling other than 0.
This patch introduces a generic USER_PGTABLES_CEILING that arch code can
override. It is the responsibility of the arch code setting the ceiling
to ensure the complete freeing of the page tables (usually in
pgd_free()).

Walking a bio's page mappings has proved problematic, so create a new
bio flag to indicate that a bio's data needs to be snapshotted in order
to guarantee stable pages during writeback. Next, for the one user
(ext3/jbd) of snapshotting, hook all the places where writes can be
initiated without PG_writeback set, and set BIO_SNAP_STABLE there.
We must also flag journal "metadata" bios for stable writeout, since
file data can be written through the journal. Finally, the
MS_SNAP_STABLE mount flag (only used by ext3) is now superfluous, so get
rid of it.

Currently, dio_send_cur_page() submits bio before current page and cached
sdio->cur_page is added to the bio if sdio->boundary is set. This is
actually wrong because sdio->boundary means the current buffer is the last
one before metadata needs to be read. So we should rather submit the bio
after the current page is added to it.

When we read/write a file sequentially, we will read/write not only the
data blocks but also the indirect blocks that may not be physically
adjacent to the data blocks. So filesystems set the BH_Boundary flag to
submit the previous I/O before reading/writing an indirect block.
However the generic direct IO code mishandles buffer_boundary(), setting
sdio->boundary before each submit_page_section() call which results in
sending only one page bios as underlying code thinks this page is the last
in the contiguous extent. So fix the problem by setting sdio->boundary
only if the current page is really the last one in the mapped extent.
With this patch and "direct-io: submit bio after boundary buffer is added
to it" I've measured about 10% throughput improvement of direct IO reads
on ext3 with SATA harddrive (from 90 MB/s to 100 MB/s). With ramdisk, the
improvement was about 3-fold (from 350 MB/s to 1.2 GB/s). For other
filesystems (such as ext4), the improvements won't be as visible because
the frequency of BH_Boundary flag being set is much smaller.

Smatch complains that if we hit an error (for example if the file is

There is a kernel memory leak observed when the proc file
/proc/fs/fscache/stats is read.
The reason is that in fscache_stats_open, single_open is called and the
respective release function is not called during release. Hence fix
with correct release function - single_release().
