The ail flush code has always relied upon log flushing to prevent it from spinning needlessly. This fixes it to wait on the last I/O request submitted (we don't need to wait for all of it) instead of either spinning with io_schedule or sleeping. As a result cpu usage of gfs2_logd is much reduced with certain workloads.

The deallocation code for directories in GFS2 is largely divided into two parts. The first part deallocates any directory leaf blocks and marks the directory as being a regular file when that is complete. The second stage was identical to deallocating regular files. Regular files have their data blocks in a different address space to directories, and thus what would have been normal data blocks in a regular file (the hash table in a GFS2 directory) were deallocated correctly. However, a reference to these blocks was left in the journal (assuming of course that some previous activity had resulted in those blocks being in the journal or ail list). This patch uses the i_depth as a test of whether the inode is an exhash directory (we cannot test the inode type as that has already been changed to a regular file at this stage in deallocation) The original issue was reported by Chris Hertel as an issue he encountered running bonnie++ Reported-by: Christopher R.

This solves a serious VFS-level bug in nested_symlink (which was rewritten from do_follow_link), and follows the order of depth tests that existed before. The bug triggers a BUG_ON in fs/namei.c:1381, when running racer with symlink and rename ops.

As Ben Hutchings discovered [1], the patch for CVE-2011-1017 (buffer overflow in ldm_frag_add) is not sufficient. The original patch in commit c340b1d6 ("fs/partitions/ldm.c: fix oops caused by corrupted partition table") does not consider that, for subsequent fragments, previously allocated memory is used.

Commit e66eed65 ("list: remove prefetching from regular list iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h, which uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather obscure header file dependency. So this fixes things up a bit, using grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]') grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]') to guide us in finding files that either need <linux/prefetch.h> inclusion, or have it despite not needing it. There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets many core ones.

Steven Rostedt authored
A new utility function (core_kernel_data()) is used to determine if a passed in address is part of core kernel data or not. It may or may not return true for RO data, but this utility must work for RW data. Thus both _sdata and _edata must be defined and continuous, without .init sections that may later be freed and replaced by volatile memory (memory that can be freed). This utility function is used to determine if data is safe from ever being freed. Thus it should return true for all RW global data that is not in a module or has been allocated, or false otherwise. Also change core_kernel_data() back to the more precise _sdata condition and document the function.
