It's pointless - we *do* have busy inodes (root directory,
for one), so that call will fail and attempt to change
XIP flag will be ignored.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

If we have the appropriate page already, call __block_write_begin()

Since inode->i_mode shares its bits for S_IFMT, S_ISDIR should be

The aio batching code is using igrab to get an extra reference on the
inode so it can safely batch. igrab will go ahead and take the global
inode spinlock, which can be a bottleneck on large machines doing lots
of AIO.In this case, igrab isn't required because we already have a reference
on the file handle. It is safe to just bump the i_count directly
on the inode.Benchmarking shows this patch brings IOP/s on tons of flash up by about
2.5X.Signed-off-by: Chris Mason

Move the EXPORTFS kconfig symbol out of the NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS block
since it provides a library function that can be (and is) used by other
(non-network) filesystems.This also eliminates a kconfig dependency warning:
warning: (XFS_FS && BLOCK || NFSD && NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS && INET && FILE_LOCKING && BKL) selects EXPORTFS which has unmet direct dependencies (NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS)

Now, rw_verify_area() checsk f_pos is negative or not. And if negative,
returns -EINVAL.But, some special files as /dev/(k)mem and /proc//mem etc.. has
negative offsets. And we can't do any access via read/write to the
file(device).So introduce FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET to allow negative file offsets.

Andrew,
Could you please review this patch, you probably are the right guy to
take it, because it crosses fs and net trees.Note : /proc/sys/fs/file-nr is a read-only file, so this patch doesnt
depend on previous patch (sysctl: fix min/max handling in
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax())Thanks !
[PATCH V4] fs: allow for more than 2^31 files
Robin Holt tried to boot a 16TB system and found af_unix was overflowing
a 32bit value :We were seeing a failure which prevented boot. The kernel was incapable
of creating either a named pipe or unix domain socket. This comes down
to a common kernel function called unix_create1() which does:atomic_inc(&unix_nr_socks);
if (atomic_read(&unix_nr_socks) > 2 * get_max_files())
goto out;The function get_max_files() is a simple return of files_stat.max_files.
files_stat.max_files is a signed integer and is computed in
fs/file_table.c's files_init().n = (mempages * (PAGE_SIZE / 1024)) / 10;
files_stat.max_files = n;In our case, mempages (total_ram_pages) is approx 3,758,096,384
(0xe0000000). That leaves max_files at approximately 1,503,238,553.
This causes 2 * get_max_files() to integer overflow.Fix is to let /proc/sys/fs/file-nr & /proc/sys/fs/file-max use long
integers, and change af_unix to use an atomic_long_t instead of
atomic_t.get_max_files() is changed to return an unsigned long.
get_nr_files() is changed to return a long.unix_nr_socks is changed from atomic_t to atomic_long_t, while not
strictly needed to address Robin problem.Before patch (on a 64bit kernel) :
# echo 2147483648 >/proc/sys/fs/file-max
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max

Currently isofs_get_blocks() was limited to handle only 4TB files on 32-bit
architectures because of unnecessary use of iblock variable which was signed
long. Just remove the variable. The error messages that were using this
variable should have rather used b_off anyway because that is the block we
are currently mapping.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Add a new helper to write out the inode using the writeback code,

exofs_new_inode() was incrementing the inode->i_count and
decrementing it in create_done(), in a bad attempt to make sure
the inode will still be there when the asynchronous create_done()
finally arrives. This was very stupid because iput() was not called,
and if it was actually needed, it would leak the inode.However all this is not needed, because at exofs_evict_inode()
we already wait for create_done() by waiting for the
object_created event. Therefore remove the superfluous ref counting
and just Thicken the comment at exofs_evict_inode() a bit.While at it change places that open coded wait_obj_created()
to call the already available wrapper.CC: Dave Chinner
