Just like files-layout, blocks & objects layouts are part of the NFS 4.1 protocol and should be automatically selected if NFS_4_1 is selected. The small problem is that these depend on other Kernel support being present, while files only depends on NFS itself. This patch removes from the user choice the presence of objects and blocks layout. But makes sure these are selected only if the depended subsystems are present in the Kernel.

Commit df5e6223 ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions. However, the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well. Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert: J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0); Fix this by increasing the reservation size.

Vasiliy Kulikov authored
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

As rt_iif represents input device even for packets coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role, it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics. compare_keys: - input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same - output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not used for matching in __ip_route_output_key - now we are back to 2.6.38 state ip_route_input_common: - matching rt_route_iif implies input route - compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check because it was not needed even for 2.6.38 compare_hash_inputs: Only the change here is not an optimization, it has effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif - now we are back to 2.6.38 state Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

Using a gcc 4.4.3, warnings are emitted for a possibly uninitialized use of ecn_ok. This can happen if cookie_check_timestamp() returns due to not having seen a timestamp.
