It turns out that while a maximum of 8 partitions may be what people "should" have had, you can actually fit up to 18 entries(*) in a sector. And some people clearly were taking advantage of that, like Michael Cree, who had ten partitions on one of his OSF disks. (*) The OSF partition data starts at byte offset 64 in the first sector, and the array of 16-byte partition entries start at offset 148 in the on-disk partition structure.

iprune_sem is continously giving us lockdep warnings because we do take it in read mode in the reclaim path, but we're also doing non-NOFS allocations under it taken in write mode. Taking a bit deeper look at it I think it's fixable quite trivially: - for invalidate_inodes we do not need iprune_sem at all. We have an active reference on the superblock, so the filesystem is not going away until it has finished. - for evict_inodes we do need it, to make sure prune_icache has done it's work before we tear down the superblock. But there is no reason to hold it over the actual reclaim operation - it's enough to cycle through it after the actual reclaim to make sure we wait for any pending prune_icache to complete. We just have to remove the WARN_ON for otherwise busy inodes as they can actually happen now. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the appropriate unlink rpc call. Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for whether or not there is a race: - __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent - shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange the dentries in that super block. - have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.

This creates a helper function for he "try to ascend into the parent directory" case, which was written out in triplicate before. With all the locking and subtle sequence number stuff, we really don't want to duplicate that kind of code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* pull the handling of current->total_link_count into __do_follow_link() * put the common "do ->put_link() if needed and path_put() the link" stuff into a helper (put_link(nd, link, cookie)) * rename __do_follow_link() to follow_link(), while we are at it Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The last remaining place (resolution of nested symlink) converted to the loop of the same kind we have in path_lookupat() and path_openat(). Note that we still *do* have a recursion in pathname resolution; can't avoid it, really. However, it's strictly for nested symlinks now - i.e. ones in the middle of a pathname. link_path_walk() has lost the tail now - it always walks everything except the last component. do_follow_link() renamed to nested_symlink() and moved down.

Now that link_path_walk() is called without LOOKUP_PARENT only from do_follow_link(), we can simplify the checks in last component handling. First of all, checking if we'd arrived to a directory is not needed - the caller will check it anyway. And LOOKUP_FOLLOW is guaranteed to be there, since we only get to that place with nd->depth > 0.

Now the only caller of link_path_walk() that does *not* pass LOOKUP_PARENT is do_follow_link() Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

new helper: walk_component(). Handles everything except symlinks; returns negative on error, 0 on success and 1 on symlinks we decided to follow. Drops out of RCU mode on such symlinks. link_path_walk() and do_last() switched to using that. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

We don't want to allow creation of private hardlinks by different application using the fd passed to them via SCM_RIGHTS. So limit the null relative name usage in linkat syscall to CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
