* mm: kill vma flag VM_CAN_NONLINEARKonstantin Khlebnikov2012-10-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move actual pte filling for non-linear file mappings into the new special vma operation: ->remap_pages(). Filesystems must implement this method to get non-linear mapping support, if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used. Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support.

* fs: push rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() to filesystemsKirill A. Shutemov2012-10-021-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's no reason to call rcu_barrier() on every deactivate_locked_super(). We only need to make sure that all delayed rcu free inodes are flushed before we destroy related cache. Removing rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() affects some fast paths. E.g. on my machine exit_group() of a last process in IPC namespace takes 0.07538s. rcu_barrier() takes 0.05188s of that time. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

* cuse: kill connection on initialization errorMiklos Szeredi2012-08-301-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Luca Risolia reported that a CUSE daemon will continue to run even if initialization of the emulated device failes for some reason (e.g. the device number is already registered by another driver). This patch disconnects the fuse device on error, which will make the userspace CUSE daemon exit, albeit without indication about what the problem was.

| | | | | | | | | | | | fuse_conn_kill() removed fc->entry, called fuse_ctl_remove_conn() and fuse_bdi_destroy(). None of which is appropriate for cuse cleanup. The fuse_ctl_remove_conn() decrements the nlink on the control filesystem, which is totally bogus. The others are harmless but unnecessary. So move these out from fuse_conn_kill() to fuse_put_super() where they belong. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

The iovec could still overflow by starting with a small element. The obvious fix is to check all the elements. The overflow case doesn't look dangerous to the kernel as the copy is limited by the length after the overflow. This fix restores the intention of returning an error instead of successfully copying less than the iovec represented. I found this by code inspection. I built it but don't have a test case.

| * fuse: update attributes on aio_readBrian Foster2012-07-181-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A fuse-based network filesystem might allow for the inode and/or file data to change unexpectedly. A local client that opens and repeatedly reads a file might never pick up on such changes and indefinitely return stale data. Always invoke fuse_update_attributes() in the read path to cause an attr revalidation when the attributes expire. This leads to a page cache invalidation if necessary and ensures fuse issues new read requests to the fuse client. The original logic (reval only on reads beyond EOF) is preserved unless the client specifies FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA on init.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently invalidate the inode address space mapping if the file size changes unexpectedly. In the case of a fuse network filesystem, a portion of a file could be overwritten remotely without changing the file size. Compare the old mtime as well to detect this condition and invalidate the mapping if the file has been updated. The original logic (to ignore changes in mtime) is preserved unless the client specifies FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA on init.

* | fs: introduce inode operation ->update_timeJosef Bacik2012-06-011-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btrfs has to make sure we have space to allocate new blocks in order to modify the inode, so updating time can fail. We've gotten around this by having our own file_update_time but this is kind of a pain, and Christoph has indicated he would like to make xfs do something different with atime updates. So introduce ->update_time, where we will deal with i_version an a/m/c time updates and indicate which changes need to be made. The normal version just does what it has always done, updates the time and marks the inode dirty, and then filesystems can choose to do something different. I've gone through all of the users of file_update_time and made them check for errors with the exception of the fault code since it's complicated and I wasn't quite sure what to do there, also Jan is going to be pushing the file time updates into page_mkwrite for those who have it so that should satisfy btrfs and make it not a big deal to check the file_update_time() return code in the generic fault path.

The ->direct_IO() method combines the existing fuse_direct_read/fuse_direct_write methods to implement O_DIRECT functionality. Reaching ->direct_IO() in the read path via generic_file_aio_read ensures proper synchronization with page cache with its existing framework. Reaching ->direct_IO() in the write path via fuse_file_aio_write is made to come via generic_file_direct_write() which makes it play nice with the page cache w.r.t other mmap pages etc. On files marked 'direct_io' by the filesystem server, IO always follows the fuse_direct_read/write path. There is no effect of fcntl(O_DIRECT) and it always succeeds. On files not marked with 'direct_io' by the filesystem server, the IO path depends on O_DIRECT flag by the application. This can be passed at the time of open() as well as via fcntl(). Note that asynchronous O_DIRECT iocb jobs are completed synchronously always (this has been the case with FUSE even before this patch) Signed-off-by: Anand Avati <avati@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

If the specified dentry has the specified inode number, the kernel will unhash it. The current 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' does not cause the kernel to clean up directories that are in use properly, and as a result the users of those directories see incorrect semantics from the file-system. The error condition seen when 'fuse_notify_inval_entry' is used to notify of a deleted directory is avoided when 'fuse_notify_delete' is used instead. The following scenario demonstrates the difference: 1. User A chdirs into 'testdir' and starts reading 'testfile'. 2. User B rm -rf 'testdir'. 3. User B creates 'testdir'. 4. User C chdirs into 'testdir'. If you run the above within the same machine on any file-system (including fuse file-systems), there is no problem: user C is able to chdir into the new testdir. The old testdir is removed from the dentry tree, but still open by user A. If operations 2 and 3 are performed via the network such that the fuse file-system uses one of the notify functions to tell the kernel that the nodes are gone, then the following error occurs for user C while user A holds the original directory open: muirj@empacher:~> ls /test/testdir ls: cannot access /test/testdir: No such file or directory The issue here is that the kernel still has a dentry for testdir, and so it is requesting the attributes for the old directory, while the file-system is responding that the directory no longer exists. If on the other hand, if the file-system can notify the kernel that the directory is deleted using the new 'fuse_notify_delete' function, then the above ls will find the new directory as expected.

| * fuse: support ioctl on directoriesMiklos Szeredi2011-12-133-4/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Multiplexing filesystems may want to support ioctls on the underlying files and directores (e.g. FS_IOC_{GET,SET}FLAGS). Ioctl support on directories was missing so add it now. Reported-by: Antonio SJ Musumeci <bile@landofbile.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
| * fuse: Use kcalloc instead of kzalloc to allocate arrayThomas Meyer2011-12-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it is also a bit nicer to read. The semantic patch that makes this change is available in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/25/107 Signed-off-by: Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
| * fuse: llseek optimize SEEK_CUR and SEEK_SETMiklos Szeredi2011-12-131-40/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use generic_file_llseek() instead of open coding the seek function. i_mutex protection is only necessary for SEEK_END (and SEEK_HOLE, SEEK_DATA), so move SEEK_CUR and SEEK_SET out from under i_mutex. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
