b4946ffb18 NFS: Fix a refcount leakage in O_DIRECT
The current code is leaking a reference to dreq->kref when the calls to
nfs_direct_read_schedule() and nfs_direct_write_schedule() return an
error.
This patch moves the call to kref_put() from nfs_direct_wait() back into
nfs_direct_read() and nfs_direct_write() (which are the functions that
actually took the reference in the first place) fixing the leak.

Thanks to Denis V. Lunev for spotting the bug and proposing the original
fix.

d4a8f3677f NFS: Fix nfs_direct_dirty_pages()
We only need to dirty the pages that were actually read in.

Also convert nfs_direct_dirty_pages() to call set_page_dirty() instead of
set_page_dirty_lock(). A call to lock_page() is unacceptable in an rpciod
callback function.

7fe7f8487a NFS: Avoid a deadlock situation on write
When processes are allowed to attempt to lock a non-contiguous range of nfs
write requests, it is possible for generic_writepages to 'wrap round' the
address space, and call writepage() on a request that is already locked by
the same process.

We avoid the deadlock by checking if the page index is contiguous with the
list of nfs write requests that is already held in our
nfs_pageio_descriptor prior to attempting to lock a new request.

e8edc6e03a Detach sched.h from mm.h
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up

50953fe9e0 slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL.  It is only supported by
SLAB.

I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again?  The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.

I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free.  That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.

Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on.  If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code.  But there is no such code
in the kernel.  I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e.  add debug code before kfree).

There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches.  Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.

This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support.  Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7

ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in
block2mtd.  All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return
with a !uptodate page.

83672d392f NFS: Fix directory caching problem - with test case and patch.
Try running this script in an NFS mounted directory (Client relatively
recent - 2.6.18 has the problem as does 2.6.20).

------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
#
# This script will produce the following errormessage from tar:
#
#   tar: newdir/innerdir/innerfile: file changed as we read it

# create dirs
rm -rf nfstest
mkdir -p nfstest/dir/innerdir

# create files (should not be empty)
echo "Hello World!" >nfstest/dir/file
echo "Hello World!" >nfstest/dir/innerdir/innerfile

# problem only happens if we sleep before chmod
sleep 1

# change file modes
chmod -R a+r nfstest

# rename dir
mv nfstest/dir nfstest/newdir

# tar it
tar -cf nfstest/nfstest.tar -C nfstest newdir

# restore old dir name
mv nfstest/newdir nfstest/dir
--------------------------------------------------------

What happens:

The 'chmod -R' does a readdir_plus in each directory and the results
get cached in the page cache.  It then updates the ctime on each file
by one second.  When this happens, the post-op attributes are used to
update the ctime stored on the client to match the value in the kernel.

The 'mv' calls shrink_dcache_parent on the directory tree which
flushes all the dentries (so a new lookup will be required) but
doesn't flush the inodes or pagecache.

The 'tar' does a readdir on each directory, but (in the case of
'innerdir' at least) satisfies it from the pagecache and uses the
READDIRPLUS data to update all the inodes.  In the case of
'innerdir/innerfile', the ctime is out of date.

'tar' then calls 'lstat' on innerdir/innerfile getting an old ctime.
It then opens the file (triggering a GETATTR), reads the content, and
then calls fstat to see if anything has changed.  It finds that ctime
has changed and so complains.

The problem seems to be that the cache readdirplus info is kept around
for too long.

My patch below discards pagecache data for directories when
dentry_iput is called on them.  This effectively removes the symptom
which convinces me that I correctly understand the problem.  However
I'm not convinced that is a proper solution, as there could easily be
other races that trigger the same problem without being affected by
this 'fix'.

One possibility would be to require that readdirplus pagecache data be
only used *once* to instantiate an inode.  Somehow it should then be
invalidated so that if the dentry subsequently disappears, it will
cause a new request to the server to fill in the stat data.

Another possibility is to compare the cache_change_attribute on the
inode with something similar for the readdirplus info and reject the
info from readdirplus if it is too old.

I haven't tried to implement these and would value other opinions
before I do.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

1f4eab7e7c NFS: Set meaningful value for fattr->time_start in readdirplus results.
Don't use uninitialsed value for fattr->time_start in readdirplus results.

The 'fattr' structure filled in by nfs3_decode_direct does not get a
value for ->time_start set.
Thus if an entry is for an inode that we already have in cache,
when nfs_readdir_lookup calls nfs_fhget, it will call nfs_refresh_inode
and may update the inode with out-of-date information.

Directories are read a page at a time, so each page could have a
different timestamp that "should" be used to set the time_start for
the fattr for info in that page.  However storing the timestamp per
page is awkward.  (We could stick in the first 4 bytes and only read 4092
bytes, but that is a bigger code change than I am interested it).

This patch ignores the readdir_plus attributes if a readdir finds the
information already in cache, and otherwise sets ->time_start to the time
the readdir request was sent to the server.

It might be nice to store - in the directory inode - the time stamp for
the earliest readdir request that is still in the page cache, so that we
don't ignore attribute data that we don't have to.  This patch doesn't do
that.

2bea90d43a SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too large
The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always
significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size.
A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never
allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc.

To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into
two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size.

Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split
the RPC buffer precisely between the two.  That should keep almost all RPC
buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit.

And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE!

c63c7b0513 NFS: Fix a race when doing NFS write coalescing
Currently we do write coalescing in a very inefficient manner: one pass in
generic_writepages() in order to lock the pages for writing, then one pass
in nfs_flush_mapping() and/or nfs_sync_mapping_wait() in order to gather
the locked pages for coalescing into RPC requests of size "wsize".

In fact, it turns out there is actually a deadlock possible here since we
only start I/O on the second pass. If the user signals the process while
we're in nfs_sync_mapping_wait(), for instance, then we may exit before
starting I/O on all the requests that have been queued up.

1a0ba9ae48 NFS: statfs error-handling fix
The nfs statfs function returns a success code on error, and fills the
output buffer with invalid values.  The attached patch makes it return a
correct error code instead.

612c9384fd NFS: Fix the 'desynchronized value of nfs_i.ncommit' error
Redirtying a request that is already marked for commit will screw up the
accounting for NR_UNSTABLE_NFS as well as nfs_i.ncommit.
Ensure that all requests on the commit queue are labelled with the
PG_NEED_COMMIT flag, and avoid moving them onto the dirty list inside
nfs_page_mark_flush().

Also inline nfs_mark_request_dirty() into nfs_page_mark_flush() for
atomicity reasons. Avoid dropping the spinlock until we're done marking the
request in the radix tree and have added it to the ->dirty list.

5a6d41b32a NFS: Ensure PG_writeback is cleared when writeback fails
If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the
memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must
ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared.

Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we
schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the
value of test_set_page_writeback().
The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the
PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

If a write has failed, then nfs_direct_write_result should not attempt to
