Caching "we have already removed suid/caps" was overenthusiastic as merged.
On network filesystems we might have had suid/caps set on another client,
silently picked by this client on revalidate, all of that *without* clearing
the S_NOSEC flag.AFAICS, the only reasonably sane way to deal with that is
* new superblock flag; unless set, S_NOSEC is not going to be set.
* local block filesystems set it in their ->mount() (more accurately,
mount_bdev() does, so does btrfs ->mount(), users of mount_bdev() other than
local block ones clear it)
* if any network filesystem (or a cluster one) wants to use S_NOSEC,
it'll need to set MS_NOSEC in sb->s_flags *AND* take care to clear S_NOSEC when
inode attribute changes are picked from other clients.It's not an earth-shattering hole (anybody that can set suid on another client
will almost certainly be able to write to the file before doing that anyway),
but it's a bug that needs fixing.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

This function basically does:
remove_from_page_cache(old);
page_cache_release(old);
add_to_page_cache_locked(new);Except it does this atomically, so there's no possibility for the "add" to
fail because of a race.If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved
from the old page to the new.This function is currently used by fuse to move pages into the page cache
on read, instead of copying the page contents.[minchan.kim@gmail.com: add freepage() hook to replace_page_cache_page()]

Commit e1181ee6 "vfs: pass struct file to do_truncate on O_TRUNC

assumed that when called from open, a truncate() will be done, not an
ftruncate().Fix by restoring the old behavior, based on the ATTR_OPEN flag.

Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.Patched with:
git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
page lock to follow page->mapping.The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin

In kernel ABI version 7.16 and later FUSE_IOCTL_RETRY reply from a

Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes
on a machine with lots of memory can take up to 30 minutes to process
FORGET requests when all those inodes are evicted from the icache.To solve this, create a BATCH_FORGET request that allows up to about
8000 FORGET requests to be sent in a single message.This request is only sent if userspace supports interface version 7.16
or later, otherwise fall back to sending individual FORGET messages.Reported-by: Terje Malmedal

Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes
on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30
minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache.The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted,
are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the
huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem
operation can proceed.Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these
take up quite a bit of memory as well.To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure
containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET
request and chain these on a separate queue.When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and
non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow
16 FORGET requests. This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet
other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs
are processed.Reported-by: Terje Malmedal

If a 32bit CUSE server is run on 64bit this results in EIO being
returned to the caller.The reason is that FUSE_IOCTL_RETRY reply was defined to use 'struct
iovec', which is different on 32bit and 64bit archs.Work around this by looking at the size of the reply to determine
which struct was used. This is only needed if CONFIG_COMPAT is
defined.A more permanent fix for the interface will be to use the same struct
on both 32bit and 64bit.Reported-by: "ccmail111"

The attribute cache for a file was not being cleared when a file is opened
with O_TRUNC.If the filesystem's open operation truncates the file ("atomic_o_trunc"
feature flag is set) then the kernel should invalidate the cached st_mtime
and st_ctime attributes.Also i_size should be explicitly be set to zero as it is used sometimes
without refreshing the cache.Signed-off-by: Ken Sumrall
