struct __fat_dirent is what was formerly the kernel struct dirent (that was different from the userspace struct dirent). Converting all fat users to struct __fat_dirent will allow us to get rid of the conflicting struct dirent definition.

"struct dirent" is a kernel type here, but is a **different type** in userspace! This means both the structure and the IOCTL number is wrong! So, this adds new "struct __fat_dirent" to generate correct IOCTL number. And kernel stuff moves to under __KERNEL__.

We should not allow user to change quota mount options when quota is just suspended. It would make mount options and internal quota state inconsistent. Also we should not allow user to change quota format when quota is turned on. On the other hand we can just silently ignore when some option is set to the value it already has (some mount versions do this on remount). Finally, we should not discard current quota options if parsing of mount options fails.

In journal=data mode, it is not enough to do write_inode_now() as done in vfs_quota_on() to write all data to their final location (which is needed for quota_read to work correctly). Calling journal_end_sync() before calling vfs_quota_on() does it's job because transactions are committed to the journal and data marked as dirty in memory so write_inode_now() writes them to their final locations.

While fixing CONFIG_ leakages to the userspace kernel headers I ran into CODA_FS_OLD_API. After five years, are there still people using the old API left? Especially considering that you have to choose at compile time which API to support in the kernel (and distributions tend to offer the new API for some time). Jan: "The old API can definitely go. Around the time the new interface went in there were some non-Coda userspace file system implementations that took a while longer to convert to the new API, but by now they all switched to the new interface or in some cases to a FUSE-based solution."

Some iso9660 images contain files with rockridge data that is either incorrect or incompletely parsed. Prior to commit f2966632 ("[PATCH] rock: handle directory overflows") (included with kernel 2.6.13) the kernel ignored the rockridge data for these files, while still allowing the files to be accessed under their non-rockridge names. That commit inadvertently changed things so that files with invalid rockridge data could not be accessed at all. (I ran across the problem when comparing some old CDs with hard disk copies I had made long ago under kernel 2.4: a few of the files on the hard disk copies were no longer visible on the CDs.) This change reverts to the pre-2.6.13 behavior.

ext3_dx_find_entry uses ext3_next_entry without verifying that the entry is valid. If its rec_len == 0 this causes an infinite loop. Refactor the loop to check the validity of entries before checking whether they match and moving onto the next one. There are other uses of ext3_next_entry in this file which also look problematic. They should be reviewed and fixed if/when we have a test-case that triggers them.

In ordered mode, the current jbd aborts the journal if a file data buffer has an error. But this behavior is unintended, and we found that it has been adopted accidentally. This patch undoes it and just calls printk() instead of aborting the journal. Additionally, set AS_EIO into the address_space object of the failed buffer which is submitted by journal_do_submit_data() so that fsync() can get -EIO. Missing error checkings are also added to inform errors on file data buffers to the user. The following buffers are targeted. (a) the buffer which has already been written out by pdflush (b) the buffer which has been unlocked before scanned in the t_locked_list loop [akpm@linux-foundation.org: improve grammar in a printk] Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: <linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

After ext3-ordered files are truncated, there is a possibility that the pages which cannot be estimated still remain. Remaining pages can be released when the system has really few memory. So, it is not memory leakage. But the resource management software etc. may not work correctly. It is possible that journal_unmap_buffer() cannot release the buffers, and the pages to which they belong because they are attached to a commiting transaction and journal_unmap_buffer() cannot release them. To release such the buffers and the pages later, journal_unmap_buffer() leaves it to journal_commit_transaction(). (journal_unmap_buffer() puts the mark 'BH_Freed' to the buffers so that journal_commit_transaction() can identify whether they can be released or not.) In the journalled mode and the writeback mode, jbd does with only metadata buffers. But in the ordered mode, jbd does with metadata buffers and also data buffers. Actually, journal_commit_transaction() releases only the metadata buffers of which release is demanded by journal_unmap_buffer(), and also releases the pages to which they belong if possible. As a result, the data buffers of which release is demanded by journal_unmap_buffer() remain after a transaction commits. And also the pages to which they belong remain. Such the remained pages don't have mapping any longer. Due to this fact, there is a possibility that the pages which cannot be estimated remain. The metadata buffers marked 'BH_Freed' and the pages to which they belong can be released at 'JBD: commit phase 7'. Therefore, by applying the same code into 'JBD: commit phase 2' (where the data buffers are done with), journal_commit_transaction() can also release the data buffers marked 'BH_Freed' and the pages to which they belong. As a result, all the buffers marked 'BH_Freed' can be released, and also all the pages to which these buffers belong can be released at journal_commit_transaction(). So, the page which cannot be estimated is lost. <<Excerpt of code at 'JBD: commit phase 7'>> > spin_lock(&journal->j_list_lock); > while (commit_transaction->t_forget) { > transaction_t *cp_transaction; > struct buffer_head *bh; > > jh = commit_transaction->t_forget; >... > if (buffer_freed(bh)) { > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > clear_buffer_freed(bh); > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > clear_buffer_jbddirty(bh); > } > > if (buffer_jbddirty(bh)) { > JBUFFER_TRACE(jh, "add to new checkpointing trans"); > __journal_insert_checkpoint(jh, commit_transaction); > JBUFFER_TRACE(jh, "refile for checkpoint writeback"); > __journal_refile_buffer(jh); > jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh); > } else { > J_ASSERT_BH(bh, !buffer_dirty(bh)); > ... > JBUFFER_TRACE(jh, "refile or unfile freed buffer"); > __journal_refile_buffer(jh); > if (!jh->b_transaction) { > jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh); > /* needs a brelse */ > journal_remove_journal_head(bh); > release_buffer_page(bh); > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > } else > } **************************************************************** * Apply the code of "^^^^^^" lines into 'JBD: commit phase 2' * **************************************************************** At journal_commit_transaction() code, there is one extra message in the series of jbd debug messages.

While freeing indirect blocks we attach a journal head to the parent buffer head, free the blocks, then journal the parent. If the indirect block list is corrupted and points to the parent the journal head will be detached when the block is cleared, causing an OOPS. Check for that explicitly and handle it gracefully. This patch fixes the third case (image hdb.20000057.nullderef.gz) reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10882. Immediately above the change, in the ext3_free_data function, we call ext3_clear_blocks to clear the indirect blocks in this parent block. If one of those blocks happens to actually be the parent block it will clear b_private / BH_JBD. I did the check at the end rather than earlier as it seemed more elegant. I don't think there should be much practical difference, although it is possible the FS may not be quite so badly corrupted if we did it the other way (and didn't clear the block at all). To be honest, I'm not convinced there aren't other similar failure modes lurking in this code, although I couldn't find any with a quick review.

A transient I/O error can corrupt inode data. Here is the scenario: (1) update inode_A at the block_B (2) pdflush writes out new inode_A to the filesystem, but it results in write I/O error, at this point, BH_Uptodate flag of the buffer for block_B is cleared and BH_Write_EIO is set (3) create new inode_C which located at block_B, and __ext3_get_inode_loc() tries to read on-disk block_B because the buffer is not uptodate (4) if it can read on-disk block_B successfully, inode_A is overwritten by old data This patch makes __ext3_get_inode_loc() not read the inode block if the buffer has BH_Write_EIO flag. In this case, the buffer should have the latest information, so setting the uptodate flag to the buffer (this avoids WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_buffer_dirty().) According to this change, we would need to test BH_Write_EIO flag for the error checking. Currently nobody checks write I/O errors on metadata buffers, but it will be done in other patches I'm working on.

journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers, it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We have seen the directo IO failed due to this race. Some of the caller of releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers(). With this patch, if the caller is passing the __GFP_WAIT and __GFP_FS to indicating this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current committing transaction, then try to free those buffers again.

Teach the mcp23s08 driver about a curious feature of these chips: up to four of them can share the same chipselect, with the SPI signals wired in parallel, by matching two bits in the first protocol byte against two address lines on the chip. This is handled by three software changes: * Platform data now holds an array of per-chip structs, not just one chip's address and pullup configuration. * Probe() and remove() now use another level of structure, wrapping an instance of the original structure for each mcp23s08 chip sharing that chipselect. * The HAEN bit is set, so that the hardware address bits can no longer be ignored (boot firmware may not have enabled them). The "one struct per chip" preserves the guts of the current code, but platform_data will need minor changes. OLD: /* incorrect "slave" ID may not have mattered */ .slave = 3, .pullups = BIT(3) | BIT(1) | BIT(0), NEW: /* slave address _must_ match chip's wiring */ .chip[3] = { .is_present = true, .pullups = BIT(3) | BIT(1) | BIT(0), }, There's no change in how things _behave_ for spi_device nodes with a single mcp23s08 chip. New multi-chip configurations assign GPIOs in sequence, without holes. The spi_device just resembles a bigger controller, but internally it has multiple gpio_chip instances.

Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file, helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off" requirements that don't merit full kernel support: echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export ... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it, when that GPIO can be used as both input and output. echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport ... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed. Related changes: * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of that device instead of being "virtual" devices. * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have been updated. * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added. * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now flagged appropriately when the chip is registered. Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML. A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this merges to mainline.
