commit 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354

percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
Before this patch we had the following:
percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value
percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying
that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before
returning.
After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and
percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality.
Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality was racy and wrong. It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus,
without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from
those other CPUS.
This patch reverts 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354. This means
that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but
percpu_counter_sum() does not.
Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using
percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well.
Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics.
Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's
central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read()
will return a close value.
After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's
central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to
percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result.
If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after
e8ced39d5e8911c662d4d69a342b9d053eaaac4e was merged, and which depends
upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

The patch 6341c39 "tracehook: exec" introduced a small regression in
2.6.27 regarding binfmt_misc exec event reporting. Since the reporting
is now done in the common search_binary_handler() function, an exec
of a misc binary will result in two (or possibly multiple) exec events
being reported, instead of just a single one, because the misc handler
contains a recursive call to search_binary_handler.
To add to the confusion, if PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC is not active, the multiple
SIGTRAP signals will in fact cause only a single ptrace intercept, as the
signals are not queued. However, if PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC is on, the debugger
will actually see multiple ptrace intercepts (PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC).
The test program included below demonstrates the problem.
This change fixes the bug by calling tracehook_report_exec() only in the
outermost search_binary_handler() call (bprm->recursion_depth == 0).
The additional change to restore bprm->recursion_depth after each binfmt
load_binary call is actually superfluous for this bug, since we test the
value saved on entry to search_binary_handler(). But it keeps the use of
of the depth count to its most obvious expected meaning. Depending on what
binfmt handlers do in certain cases, there could have been false-positive
tests for recursion limits before this change.
/* Test program using PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC.
This forks and exec's the first argument with the rest of the arguments,
while ptrace'ing. It expects to see one PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stop and
then a successful exit, with no other signals or events in between.
Test for kernel doing two PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stops for a binfmt_misc exec:
$ gcc -g traceexec.c -o traceexec
$ sudo sh -c 'echo :test:M::foobar::/bin/cat: > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register'
$ echo 'foobar test' > ./foobar
$ chmod +x ./foobar
$ ./traceexec ./foobar; echo $?
==> good <==

While 440037287c5 "[PATCH] switch all filesystems over to
d_obtain_alias" removed some cases where fh_to_dentry() and
fh_to_parent() could return NULL, there are still a few NULL returns
left in individual filesystems. Thus it was a mistake for that commit
to remove the handling of NULL returns in the callers.
Revert those parts of 440037287c5 which removed the NULL handling.
(We could, alternatively, modify all implementations to return -ESTALE
instead of NULL, but that proves to require fixing a number of
filesystems, and in some cases it's arguably more natural to return
NULL.)
Thanks to David for original patch and Linus, Christoph, and Hugh for
review.

Impact: new feature
Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.
To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.
When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).
This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

Changeset a238b790d5f99c7832f9b73ac8847025815b85f7 (Call fasync()

file->f_flags in a state inconsistent with what the underlying
driver/filesystem believes. Revert that change, and also fix the same
races in ioctl_fioasync() and ioctl_fionbio().
This is a minimal, short-term fix; the real fix will not involve the

When project quota is active and is being used for directory tree
quota control, we disallow rename outside the current directory
tree. This requires a check to be made after all the inodes
involved in the rename are locked. We fail to unlock the inodes
correctly if we disallow the rename when the target is outside the
current directory tree. This results in a hang on the next access
to the inodes involved in failed rename.

Hit this assert because an inode was tagged with XFS_ICI_RECLAIM_TAG but
not XFS_IRECLAIMABLE|XFS_IRECLAIM. This is because xfs_iget_cache_hit()
first clears XFS_IRECLAIMABLE and then calls __xfs_inode_clear_reclaim_tag()
while only holding the pag_ici_lock in read mode so we can race with
xfs_reclaim_inodes_ag(). Looks like xfs_reclaim_inodes_ag() will do the
right thing anyway so just remove the assert.

The 32-bit xfs_blkstat_one handler was failing because
a size check checked whether the remaining (32-bit)
user buffer was less than the (64-bit) bulkstat buffer,
and failed with ENOMEM if so. Move this check
into the respective handlers so that they check the
correct sizes.
Also, the formatters were returning negative errors
or positive bytes copied; this was odd in the positive
error value world of xfs, and handled wrong by at least
some of the callers, which treated the bytes returned
as an error value. Move the bytes-used assignment
into the formatters.

Currently the compat formatter was handled by passing

which was really just another formatter... IMHO this
got confusing.
Instead, just make a new xfs_bulkstat_one_compat
formatter for xfs_bulkstat, and call it via a wrapper.
Also, don't translate the ioctl nrs into their native
counterparts, that just clouds the issue; we're in a
compat handler anyway, just switch on the 32-bit cmds.
