Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner:
"This update fixes a warning in the new pagecache_isize_extended() and
updates some related comments, another fix for zero-range
misbehaviour, and an unforntuately large set of fixes for regressions
in the bulkstat code.The bulkstat fixes are large but necessary. I wouldn't normally push
such a rework for a -rcX update, but right now xfsdump can silently
create incomplete dumps on 3.17 and it's possible that even xfsrestore
won't notice that the dumps were incomplete. Hence we need to get
this update into 3.17-stable kernels ASAP.In more detail, the refactoring work I committed in 3.17 has exposed a
major hole in our QA coverage. With both xfsdump (the major user of
bulkstat) and xfsrestore silently ignoring missing files in the
dump/restore process, incomplete dumps were going unnoticed if they
were being triggered. Many of the dump/restore filesets were so small
that they didn't evenhave a chance of triggering the loop iteration
bugs we introduced in 3.17, so we didn't exercise the code
sufficiently, either.We have already taken steps to improve QA coverage in xfstests to
avoid this happening again, and I've done a lot of manual verification
of dump/restore on very large data sets (tens of millions of inodes)
of the past week to verify this patch set results in bulkstat behaving
the same way as it does on 3.16.Unfortunately, the fixes are not exactly simple - in tracking down the
problem historic API warts were discovered (e.g xfsdump has been
working around a 20 year old bug in the bulkstat API for the past 10
years) and so that complicated the process of diagnosing and fixing
the problems. i.e. we had to fix bugs in the code as well as
discover and re-introduce the userspace visible API bugs that we
unwittingly "fixed" in 3.17 that xfsdump relied on to work correctly.Summary:
- incorrect warnings about i_mutex locking in pagecache_isize_extended()
and updates comments to match expected locking
- another zero-range bug fix for stray file size updates

There is a race condition when removing glue directory.
It can be reproduced in following test:path 1: Add first child device

get_device_parent()
/*find parent from glue_dirs.list*/
list_for_each_entry(k, &dev->class->p->glue_dirs.list, entry)
if (k->parent == parent_kobj) {
kobj = kobject_get(k);
break;
}
....
class_dir_create_and_add()path2: Remove last child device under glue dir
device_del()
cleanup_device_parent()
cleanup_glue_dir()
kobject_put(glue_dir);If path2 has been called cleanup_glue_dir(), but not
call kobject_put(glue_dir), the glue dir is still
in parent's kset list. Meanwhile, path1 find the glue
dir from the glue_dirs.list. Path2 may release glue dir
before path1 call kobject_get(). So kernel will report
the warning and bug_on.This is a "classic" problem we have of a kref in a list
that can be found while the last instance could be removed
at the same time.This patch reuse gdp_mutex to fix this race condition.

The bulkstat main loop progress is tracked by the "lastino"
variable, which is a full 64 bit inode. However, the loop actually
works on agno/agino pairs, and so there's a significant disconnect
between the rest of the loop and the main cursor. Convert this to
use the agino, and pass the agino into the chunk formatting function
and convert it too.This gets rid of the inconsistency in the loop processing, and
finally makes it simple for us to skip inodes at any point in the
loop simply by incrementing the agino cursor.cc: # 3.17

The error propagation is a horror - xfs_bulkstat() returns
a rval variable which is only set if there are formatter errors. Any
sort of btree walk error or corruption will cause the bulkstat walk
to terminate but will not pass an error back to userspace. Worse
is the fact that formatter errors will also be ignored if any inodes
were correctly formatted into the user buffer.Hence bulkstat can fail badly yet still report success to userspace.
This causes significant issues with xfsdump not dumping everything
in the filesystem yet reporting success. It's not until a restore
fails that there is any indication that the dump was bad and tha
bulkstat failed. This patch now triggers xfsdump to fail with
bulkstat errors rather than silently missing files in the dump.This now causes bulkstat to fail when the lastino cookie does not
fall inside an existing inode chunk. The pre-3.17 code tolerated
that error by allowing the code to move to the next inode chunk
as the agino target is guaranteed to fall into the next btree
record.With the fixes up to this point in the series, xfsdump now passes on
the troublesome filesystem image that exposes all these bugs.cc:

The loop construct has issues:
- clustidx is completely unused, so remove it.
- the loop tries to be smart by terminating when the
"freecount" tells it that all inodes are free. Just drop
it as in most cases we have to scan all inodes in the
chunk anyway.
- move the "user buffer left" condition check to the only
point where we consume space int eh user buffer.
- move the initialisation of agino out of the loop, leaving
just a simple loop control logic using the clusteridx.Also, double handling of the user buffer variables leads to problems
tracking the current state - use the cursor variables directly
rather than keeping local copies and then having to update the
cursor before returning.cc: # 3.17
