  • 2e54eb96e   BKL: Remove BKL from ncpfs ... Browse Code »

    Dozen of changes in ncpfs to provide some locking other than BKL.

    In readdir cache unlock and mark complete first page as last operation,
    so it can be used for synchronization, as code intended.

    When updating dentry name on case insensitive filesystems do at least
    some basic locking...

    Hold i_mutex when updating inode fields.

    Push some ncp_conn_is_valid down to ncp_request. Connection can become
    invalid at any moment, and fewer error code paths to test the better.

    Use i_size_{read,write} to modify file size.

    Set inode's backing_dev_info as ncpfs has its own special bdi.

    In ioctl unbreak ioctls invoked on filesystem mounted 'ro' - tests are
    for inode writeable or owner match, but were turned to filesystem
    writeable and inode writeable or owner match. Also collect all permission
    checks in single place.

    Add some locking, and remove comments saying that it would be cool to
    add some locks to the code.

    Constify some pointers.

  • 5a0e3ad6a   include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implic… ... Browse Code »

    …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

    Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
    the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

    Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

    Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more
    sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
    addressed by later patches.

  • e8edc6e03   Detach sched.h from mm.h ... Browse Code »

    First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
    function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
    mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

    This patch
    a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
    b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
    c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
    d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
    e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
    getting them indirectly

    Net result is:
    a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
    they don't need sched.h
    b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
    on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
    after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

    Cross-compile tested on

    all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
    alpha alpha-up
    arm
    i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig

  • 54f67f631   [PATCH] Move ncpfs 32bit compat ioctl to ncpfs ... Browse Code »

    The ncp specific compat ioctls are clearly local to one file system, so the
    code can better live there.

    This version of the patch moves everything into the generic ioctl handler
    and uses it for both 32 and 64 bit calls.

    A few more callers of permission() just want to check for a different access
    pattern on an already open file. This patch adds a wrapper for permission()
    that takes a file in preparation of per-mount read-only support and to clean
    up the callers a little. The helper is not intended for new code, everything
    without the interface set in stone should use vfs_permission()

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
