* [PATCH] NFS: Fix the file size revalidationTrond Myklebust2005-06-221-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Instead of looking at whether or not the file is open for writes before we accept to update the length using the server value, we should rather be looking at whether or not we are currently caching any writes. Failure to do so means in particular that we're not updating the file length correctly after obtaining a POSIX or BSD lock. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

* [PATCH] NFS: Hide NFS server-generated readdir cookies from userlandOlivier Galibert2005-06-221-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | NFSv3 currently returns the unsigned 64-bit cookie directly to userspace. The following patch causes the kernel to generate loff_t offsets for the benefit of userland. The current server-generated READDIR cookie is cached in the nfs_open_context instead of in filp->f_pos, so we still end up work correctly under directory insertions/deletion.

* [PATCH] NFS: Cache the NFSv3 acls.Andreas Gruenbacher2005-06-221-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Attach acls to inodes in the icache to avoid unnecessary GETACL RPC round-trips. As long as the client doesn't retrieve any acls itself, only the default acls of exiting directories and the default and access acls of new directories will end up in the cache, which preserves some memory compared to always caching the access and default acl of all files.

* [PATCH] NFS: Fix handling of the umask when an NFSv3 default acl is present.Andreas Gruenbacher2005-06-221-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NFSv3 has no concept of a umask on the server side: The client applies the umask locally, and sends the effective permissions to the server. This behavior is wrong when files are created in a directory that has a default ACL. In this case, the umask is supposed to be ignored, and only the default ACL determines the file's effective permissions. Usually its the server's task to conditionally apply the umask. But since the server knows nothing about the umask, we have to do it on the client side. This patch tries to fetch the parent directory's default ACL before creating a new file, computes the appropriate create mode to send to the server, and finally sets the new file's access and default acl appropriately. Many thanks to Buck Huppmann <buchk@pobox.com> for sending the initial version of this patch, as well as for arguing why we need this change.

* [PATCH] NFS: Add support for NFSv3 ACLsAndreas Gruenbacher2005-06-224-0/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds acl support fo nfs clients via the NFSACL protocol extension, by implementing the getxattr, listxattr, setxattr, and removexattr iops for the system.posix_acl_access and system.posix_acl_default attributes. This patch implements a dumb version that uses no caching (and thus adds some overhead). (Another patch in this patchset adds caching as well.)

| * [PATCH] I2C: Kill address ranges in non-sensors i2c chip driversJean Delvare2005-06-211-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some months ago, you killed the address ranges mechanism from all sensors i2c chip drivers (both the module parameters and the in-code address lists). I think it was a very good move, as the ranges can easily be replaced by individual addresses, and this allowed for significant cleanups in the i2c core (let alone the impressive size shrink for all these drivers). Unfortunately you did not do the same for non-sensors i2c chip drivers. These need the address ranges even less, so we could get rid of the ranges here as well for another significant i2c core cleanup. Here comes a patch which does just that. Since the process is exactly the same as what you did for the other drivers set already, I did not split this one in parts. A documentation update is included. The change saves 308 bytes in the i2c core, and an average 1382 bytes for chip drivers which use I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD, 126 bytes for those which do not. This change is required if we want to merge the sensors and non-sensors i2c code (and we want to do this).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | currently, md updates all superblocks (one on each device) in series. It waits for one write to complete before starting the next. This isn't a big problem as superblock updates don't happen that often. However it is neater to do it in parallel, and if the drives in the array have gone to "sleep" after a period of idleness, then waking them is parallel is faster (and someone else should be worrying about power drain). Futher, we will need parallel superblock updates for a future patch which keeps the intent-logging bitmap near the superblock. Also remove the silly code that retired superblock updates 100 times.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before completing a 'write' the md superblock might need to be updated. This is best done by the md_thread. The current code schedules this up and queues the write request for later handling by the md_thread. However some personalities (Raid5/raid6) will deadlock if the md_thread tries to submit requests to its own array. So this patch changes things so the processes submitting the request waits for the superblock to be written and then submits the request itself.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

The number of sectors is usually easily small enough to fit in an int, but if resync needs to abort, it may want to return the total number of remaining sectors, which could be large. Also errors cannot be returned as negative numbers now, so use 0 instead 2/ Add a 'skipped' return parameter to allow the array to report that it skipped the sectors. This allows md to take this into account in the speed calculations. Currently there is no important skipping, but the bitmap-based-resync that is coming will use this.

This is needed because ->shutdown and/or ->disable are only called when the last "action" for that irq is removed. Instead, for UML shared IRQs (UML IRQs are very often, if not always, shared), for each dev_id some setup is done, which must be cleared on the release of that fd. For instance, for each open console a new instance (i.e. new dev_id) of the same IRQ is requested(). Exactly, a fd is stored in an array (pollfds), which is after read by a host thread and passed to poll(). Each event registered by poll() triggers an interrupt. So, for each free_irq() we must remove the corresponding host fd from the table, which we do via this -release() method. In this patch we add an appropriate hook for this, and remove all uses of it by pointing the hook to the said procedure; this is safe to do since the said procedure. Also some cosmetic improvements are included. This is heavily based on some work by Chris Wedgwood, which however didn't get the patch merged for something I'd call a "misunderstanding" (the need for this patch wasn't cleanly explained, thus adding the generic hook was felt as undesirable).
