Subject: [PATCH] NFS - fix recent breakage to NFS error handling.

commit 02c24a82 made a small and
presumably unintended change to write error handling in NFS.

Previously an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would only be of
interest if nfs_file_fsync did not return an error.  After this commit,
an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would mean that (the rest of)
nfs_file_fsync would not even be called.

This means that:
 1/ you are more likely to see EIO than e.g. EDQUOT or ENOSPC.
 2/ NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE remains set for longer so more writes are
    synchronous.

This patch restores previous behaviour.

Lukas Razik <linux@razik.name> reports that on his SPARC system,
booting with an NFS root file system stopped working after commit
56463e50 "NFS: Use super.c for NFSROOT mount option parsing."

We found that the network switch to which Lukas' client was attached
was delaying access to the LAN after the client's NIC driver reported
that its link was up.  The delay was longer than the timeouts used in
the NFS client during mounting.

NFSROOT worked for Lukas before commit 56463e50 because in those
kernels, the client's first operation was an rpcbind request to
determine which port the NFS server was listening on.  When that
request failed after a long timeout, the client simply selected the
default NFS port (2049).  By that time the switch was allowing access
to the LAN, and the mount succeeded.

Neither of these client behaviors is desirable, so reverting 56463e50
is really not a choice.  Instead, introduce a mechanism that retries
the NFSROOT mount request several times.  This is the same tactic that
normal user space NFS mounts employ to overcome server and network
delays.

This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this
area.

1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the
   stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is
   not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running
   thread which can initiate another group-stop.

   Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace).

2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached
   and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING
   but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr)
   in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches.

   Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report.

   Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from
   current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the
   possible similar problems.

Test-case:

	int main(void)
	{
		int pid, status;

		pid = fork();
		if (!pid) {
			for (;;) {
				if (!fork())
					return 0;
				if (waitpid(-1, &status, 0) < 0) {
					printf("ERR!! wait: %m\n");
					return 0;
				}
			}
		}

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, 0) == pid);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0,
					PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK) == 0);

		do {
			ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0);
			pid = waitpid(-1, NULL, 0);
		} while (pid > 0);

		return 1;
	}

It fails because ->real_parent sees its child in EXIT_DEAD state
while the tracer is going to change the state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE
in wait_task_zombie().

The offending commit is 823b018e which moved the EXIT_DEAD check,
but in fact we should not blame it. The original code was not
correct as well because it didn't take ptrace_reparented() into
account and because we can't really trust ->ptrace.

This patch adds the additional check to close this particular
race but it doesn't solve the whole problem. We simply can't
rely on ->ptrace in this case, it can be cleared if the tracer
is multithreaded by the exiting ->parent.

I think we should kill EXIT_DEAD altogether, we should always
remove the soon-to-be-reaped child from ->children or at least
we should never do the DEAD->ZOMBIE transition. But this is too
complex for 3.2.

This reverts commit 93b2ec01.

The call to "schedule_work()" in rtc_initialize_alarm() happens too
early, and can cause oopses at bootup

Neil Brown explains why we do it:

  "If you set an alarm in the future, then shutdown and boot again after
   that time, then you will end up with a timer_queue node which is in
   the past.

   When this happens the queue gets stuck.  That entry-in-the-past won't
   get removed until and interrupt happens and an interrupt won't happen
   because the RTC only triggers an interrupt when the alarm is "now".

   So you'll find that e.g.  "hwclock" will always tell you that
   'select' timed out.

   So we force the interrupt work to happen at the start just in case."

and has a patch that convert it to do things in-process rather than with
the worker thread, but right now it's too late to play around with this,
so we just revert the patch that caused problems for now.

The current check looks to see if the RFC1002 length is larger than
CIFSMaxBufSize, and fails if it is. The buffer is actually larger than
that by MAX_CIFS_HDR_SIZE.

This bug has been around for a long time, but the fact that we used to
cap the clients MaxBufferSize at the same level as the server tended
to paper over it. Commit c974befa changed that however and caused this
bug to bite in more cases.

It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm,
it actually seems to enable it on the affected laptops, resulting in

Commit 1e39f384 ("evm: fix build problems") makes the stub version
of security_old_inode_init_security() return 0 when CONFIG_SECURITY is
not set.

But that makes callers such as reiserfs_security_init() assume that
security_old_inode_init_security() has set name, value, and len
arguments properly - but security_old_inode_init_security() left them
uninitialized which then results in interesting failures.

Revert security_old_inode_init_security() to the old behavior of
returning EOPNOTSUPP since both callers (reiserfs and ocfs2) handle this
just fine.

[ Also fixed the S_PRIVATE(inode) case of the actual non-stub
  security_old_inode_init_security() function to return EOPNOTSUPP
  for the same reason, as pointed out by Mimi Zohar.

  It got incorrectly changed to match the new function in commit
  fb88c2b6: "evm: fix security/security_old_init_security return
  code".   - Linus ]

If one only selects mx23-based boards, compile fails:

drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec.c:411:2: error: 'FEC_HASH_TABLE_LOW' undeclared (first use in this function)

This is because fec.h uses CONFIG_SOC_IMX28 to determine the register
layout of the core which makes sense since the MX23 does not have a fec.
However, Kconfig uses the broader ARCH_MXS symbol and this way even
makes the fec-driver default for MX23. Adapt Kconfig to use the more
precise SOC_IMX28 as well.

It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate
area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the
ZERO_PAGE issue.

While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar
trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping.  And are there
still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping,
and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail?

In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all:
Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem,
because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to
interfere when the page reference count is raised.

But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure
called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page
table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from
filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount.
Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.
