573c24c4af dlm: always use GFP_NOFS
Replace all GFP_KERNEL and ls_allocation with GFP_NOFS.
ls_allocation would be GFP_KERNEL for userland lockspaces
and GFP_NOFS for file system lockspaces.

It was discovered that any lockspaces on the system can
affect all others by triggering memory reclaim in the
file system which could in turn call back into the dlm
to acquire locks, deadlocking dlm threads that were
shared by all lockspaces, like dlm_recv.

199bc9ff5c jffs2: Fix memory corruption in jffs2_read_inode_range()
In 2.6.23 kernel, commit a32ea1e1f925399e0d81ca3f7394a44a6dafa12c
("Fix read/truncate race") fixed a race in the generic code, and as a
side effect, now do_generic_file_read() can ask us to readpage() past
the i_size. This seems to be correctly handled by the block routines
(e.g. block_read_full_page() fills the page with zeroes in case if
somebody is trying to read past the last inode's block).

JFFS2 doesn't handle this; it assumes that it won't be asked to read
pages which don't exist -- and thus that there will be at least _one_
valid 'frag' on the page it's being asked to read. It will fill any
holes with the following memset:

  memset(buf, 0, min(end, frag->ofs + frag->size) - offset);

When the 'closest smaller match' returned by jffs2_lookup_node_frag() is
actually on a previous page and ends before 'offset', that results in:

  memset(buf, 0, <huge unsigned negative>);

Hopefully, in most cases the corruption is fatal, and quickly causing
random oopses, like this:

above also broke the truncation).

a694291a62 nilfs2: separate wait function from nilfs_segctor_write
This separates wait function for submitted logs from the write
function nilfs_segctor_write().  A new list of segment buffers
"sc_write_logs" is added to hold logs under writing, and double
buffering is partially applied to hide io latency.

At this point, the double buffering is disabled for blocksize <
pagesize because page dirty flag is turned off during write and dirty
buffers are not properly collected for pages crossing over segments.

To receive full benefit of the double buffering, further refinement is
needed to move the io wait outside the lock section of log writer.

1b7323965a fuse: reject O_DIRECT flag also in fuse_create
The comment in fuse_open about O_DIRECT:

  "VFS checks this, but only _after_ ->open()"

also holds for fuse_create, however, the same kind of check was missing there.

As an impact of this bug, open(newfile, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT) fails, but a
stub newfile will remain if the fuse server handled the implied FUSE_CREATE
request appropriately.

Other impact: in the above situation ima_file_free() will complain to open/free
imbalance if CONFIG_IMA is set.

d180c5bcce sched: Introduce task_times() to replace task_{u,s}time() pair
Functions task_{u,s}time() are called in pair in almost all
cases.  However task_stime() is implemented to call task_utime()
from its inside, so such paired calls run task_utime() twice.

It means we do heavy divisions (div_u64 + do_div) twice to get
utime and stime which can be obtained at same time by one set
of divisions.

This patch introduces a function task_times(*tsk, *utime,
*stime) to retrieve utime and stime at once in better, optimized
way.

d9449ce35a Fix regression in direct writes performance due to WRITE_ODIRECT flag removal
There seems to be a regression in direct write path due to following
commit in for-2.6.33 branch of block tree.

commit 1af60fbd759d31f565552fea315c2033947cfbe6
Author: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com>
Date:   Fri Oct 2 18:56:53 2009 -0400

    block: get rid of the WRITE_ODIRECT flag

Marking direct writes as WRITE_SYNC_PLUG instead of WRITE_ODIRECT, sets
the NOIDLE flag in bio and hence in request. This tells CFQ to not expect
more request from the queue and not idle on it (despite the fact that
queue's think time is less and it is not seeky).

So direct writers lose big time when competing with sequential readers.

Using fio, I have run one direct writer and two sequential readers and
following are the results with 2.6.32-rc7 kernel and with for-2.6.33
branch.

Test
====
1 direct writer and 2 sequential reader running simultaneously.

[global]
directory=/mnt/sdc/fio/
runtime=10

[seqwrite]
rw=write
size=4G
direct=1

[seqread]
rw=read
size=2G
numjobs=2

2.6.32-rc7
==========
direct writes: aggrb=2,968KB/s
readers	     : aggrb=101MB/s

for-2.6.33 branch
=================
direct write: aggrb=19KB/s
readers	      aggrb=137MB/s

This patch brings back the WRITE_ODIRECT flag, with the difference that we
don't set the BIO_RW_UNPLUG flag so that device is not unplugged after
submission of request and an explicit unplug from submitter is required.

That way we fix the jeff's issue of not enough merging taking place in aio
path as well as make sure direct writes get their fair share.

After the fix
=============
for-2.6.33 + fix
----------------
direct writes: aggrb=2,728KB/s
reads: aggrb=103MB/s

2d4dc890b5 block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages
Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.

The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

cea6234395 [CIFS] Duplicate data on appending to some Samba servers
SMB writes are sent with a starting offset and length. When the server
supports the newer SMB trans2 posix open (rather than using the SMB
NTCreateX) a file can be opened with SMB_O_APPEND flag, and for that
case Samba server assumes that the offset sent in SMBWriteX is unneeded
since the write should go to the end of the file - which can cause
problems if the write was cached (since the beginning part of a
page could be written twice by the client mm).  Jeff suggested that
masking the flag on posix open on the client is easiest for the time
being. Note that recent Samba server also had an unrelated problem with
SMB NTCreateX and append (see samba bugzilla bug number 6898) which
should not affect current Linux clients (unless cifs Unix Extensions
are disabled).

The cifs client did not send the O_APPEND flag on posix open
before 2.6.29 so the fix is unneeded on early kernels.

In the future, for the non-cached case (O_DIRECT, and forcedirectio mounts)
it would be possible and useful to send O_APPEND on posix open (for Windows
case: FILE_APPEND_DATA but not FILE_WRITE_DATA on SMB NTCreateX) but for
cached writes although the vfs sets the offset to end of file it
may fragment a write across pages - so we can't send O_APPEND on
open (could result in sending part of a page twice).

94d7c16cbb ext4: Fix double-free of blocks with EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT
At the beginning of ext4_move_extent(), we call
ext4_discard_preallocations() to discard inode PAs of orig and donor
inodes.  But in the following case, blocks can be double freed, so
move ext4_discard_preallocations() to the end of ext4_move_extents().

1. Discard inode PAs of orig and donor inodes with
   ext4_discard_preallocations() in ext4_move_extents().

   orig : [ DATA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA2 ]

2. While data blocks are exchanging between orig and donor inodes, new
   inode PAs is created to orig by other process's block allocation.
   (Since there are semaphore gaps in ext4_move_extents().)  And new
   inode PAs is used partially (2-1).

   2-1 Create new inode PAs to orig inode
   orig : [ DATA1 | used PA1 | free PA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA2 ]

3. Donor inode which has old orig inode's blocks is deleted after
   EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished (3-1, 3-2).  So the block bitmap
   corresponds to old orig inode's blocks are freed.

   3-1 After EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished
   orig : [ DATA2 |  free PA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA1 |  used PA1 ]

   3-2 Delete donor inode
   orig : [ DATA2 |  free PA1 ]
   donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | FREE SPACE(used PA1) ]

4. The double-free of blocks is occurred, when close() is called to
   orig inode.  Because ext4_discard_preallocations() for orig inode
   frees used PA1 and free PA1, though used PA1 is already freed in 3.

   4-1 Double-free of blocks is occurred
   orig : [ DATA2 |  FREE SPACE(free PA1) ]
   donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | DOUBLE FREE(used PA1) ]

generic_file_aio_write already calls into ->fsync to handle O_SYNC/O_DSYNC.
Remove the duplicate call to ubifs_sync_wbufs_by_inode which is already
covered by ubifs_fsync.

9722324e65 UBIFS: support mounting of UBI volume character devices
This patch makes it possible to mount UBI character device
nodes, and use something like:

$ mount -t ubifs /dev/ubi_volume_name /mnt/ubifs

instead of the old restrictive 'nodev' semantics:

$ mount -t ubifs ubi0_0 /mnt/ubifs

87038c2d5b partitions: read whole sector with EFI GPT header
The size of EFI GPT header is not static, but whole sector is
allocated for the header. The HeaderSize field must be greater
than 92 (= sizeof(struct gpt_header) and must be less than or
equal to the logical block size.

It means we have to read whole sector with the header, because the
header crc32 checksum is calculated according to HeaderSize.

For more details see UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009):

  - Table 13. GUID Partition Table Header, page 96

7d13af3279 partitions: use sector size for EFI GPT
Currently, kernel uses strictly 512-byte sectors for EFI GPT parsing.
That's wrong.

UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009, 5.3.1 GUID Format overview, page
95) defines that LBA is always based on the logical block size. It
means bdev_logical_block_size() (aka BLKSSZGET) for Linux.

This patch removes static sector size from EFI GPT parser.

The problem is reproducible with the latest GNU Parted:

 # modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=50 sector_size=4096

  # ./parted /dev/sdb print
  Model: Linux scsi_debug (scsi)
  Disk /dev/sdb: 52.4MB
  Sector size (logical/physical): 4096B/4096B
  Partition Table: gpt

  Number  Start   End     Size    File system  Name     Flags
   1      24.6kB  3002kB  2978kB               primary
   2      3002kB  6001kB  2998kB               primary
   3      6001kB  9003kB  3002kB               primary

  # blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb
  # dmesg | tail -1
   sdb: unknown partition table      <---- !!!

with this patch:

  # blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb
  # dmesg | tail -1
   sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3

9084d47197 ext4: use ext4_data_block_valid() in ext4_free_blocks()
The block validity framework does a more comprehensive set of checks,
and it saves object code space to use the ext4_data_block_valid() than
the limited open-coded version that had been in ext4_free_blocks().

e6362609b6 ext4: call ext4_forget() from ext4_free_blocks()
Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from
ext4_free_blocks().  This simplifies the code in a large number of
places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into
a single place.

Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling
ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the
conversion.  As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after
the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as
data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks.  With
this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

4433871130 ext4: fold ext4_free_blocks() and ext4_mb_free_blocks()
ext4_mb_free_blocks() is only called by ext4_free_blocks(), and the
latter function doesn't really do much.  So merge the two functions
together, such that ext4_free_blocks() is now found in
fs/ext4/mballoc.c.  This saves about 200 bytes of compiled text space.
