kill_fasync() uses a central rwlock, candidate for RCU conversion, to
avoid cache line ping pongs on SMP.fasync_remove_entry() and fasync_add_entry() can disable IRQS on a short
section instead during whole list scan.Use a spinlock per fasync_struct to synchronize kill_fasync_rcu() and
fasync_{remove|add}_entry(). This spinlock is IRQ safe, so sock_fasync()
doesnt need its own implementation and can use fasync_helper(), to
reduce code size and complexity.We can remove __kill_fasync() direct use in net/socket.c, and rename it
to kill_fasync_rcu().Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

quota: Convert __DQUOT_PARANOIA symbol to standard config option -
Make __DQUOT_PARANOIA define from the old days a standard config option
and turn it off by default.This gets rid of a quota warning about writes before quota is turned on
for systems with ext4 root filesystem. Currently there's no way to legally
solve this because /etc/mtab has to be written before quota is turned on
on most systems.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Vaugue warnings about ENAMETOOLONG errors when looking up an encrypted

Since this is a rather harmless condition, I'm moving this warning to

The timestamps and size of a lower inode involved in a link() call was
being copied to the upper parent inode. Instead, we should be
copying lower parent inode's timestamps and size to the upper parent
inode. I discovered this bug using the POSIX test suite at Tuxera.Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks

Since tmpfs has no persistent storage, it pins all its dentries in memory
so they have d_count=1 when other file systems would have d_count=0.
->lookup is only used to create new dentries. If the caller doesn't
instantiate it, it's freed immediately at dput(). ->readdir reads
directly from the dcache and depends on the dentries being hashed.When an ecryptfs mount is mounted, it associates the lower file and dentry
with the ecryptfs files as they're accessed. When it's umounted and
destroys all the in-memory ecryptfs inodes, it fput's the lower_files and
d_drop's the lower_dentries. Commit 4981e081 added this and a d_delete in
2008 and several months later commit caeeeecf removed the d_delete. I
believe the d_drop() needs to be removed as well.The d_drop effectively hides any file that has been accessed via ecryptfs
from the underlying tmpfs since it depends on it being hashed for it to
be accessible. I've removed the d_drop on my development node and see no
ill effects with basic testing on both tmpfs and persistent storage.As a side effect, after ecryptfs d_drops the dentries on tmpfs, tmpfs
BUGs on umount. This is due to the dentries being unhashed.
tmpfs->kill_sb is kill_litter_super which calls d_genocide to drop
the reference pinning the dentry. It skips unhashed and negative dentries,
but shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree doesn't. Since those dentries
still have an elevated d_count, we get a BUG().This patch removes the d_drop call and fixes both issues.

Create a getattr handler for eCryptfs symlinks that is capable of
reading the lower target and decrypting its path. Prior to this patch,
a stat's st_size field would represent the strlen of the encrypted path,
while readlink() would return the strlen of the decrypted path. This
could lead to confusion in some userspace applications, since the two
values should be equal.https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524919

Updates to the VFS layer removed an extra ->sync_fs call into the
filesystem during the sync process (from the quota code).
Unfortunately the sync code was unknowingly relying on this call to
make sure metadata buffers were flushed via a xfs_buftarg_flush()
call to move the tail of the log forward in memory before the final
transactions of the sync process were issued.As a result, the old code would write a very recent log tail value
to the log by the end of the sync process, and so a subsequent crash
would leave nothing for log recovery to do. Hence in qa test 182,
log recovery only replayed a small handle for inode fsync
transactions in this case.However, with the removal of the extra ->sync_fs call, the log tail
was now not moved forward with the inode fsync transactions near the
end of the sync procese the first (and only) buftarg flush occurred
after these transactions went to disk. The result is that log
recovery now sees a large number of transactions for metadata that
is already on disk.This usually isn't a problem, but when the transactions include
inode chunk allocation, the inode create transactions and all
subsequent changes are replayed as we cannt rely on what is on disk
is valid. As a result, if the inode was written and contains
unlogged changes, the unlogged changes are lost, thereby violating
sync semantics.The fix is to always issue a transaction after the buftarg flush
occurs is the log iѕ not idle or covered. This results in a dummy
transaction being written that contains the up-to-date log tail
value, which will be very recent. Indeed, it will be at least as
recent as the old code would have left on disk, so log recovery
will behave exactly as it used to in this situation.Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner

Use a separate class for ceph sockets to prevent lockdep confusion.
Because ceph sockets only get passed kernel pointers, there is no
dependency from sk_lock -> mmap_sem. If we share the same class as other
sockets, lockdep detects a circular dependency frommmap_sem (page fault) -> fs mutex -> sk_lock -> mmap_sem
because dependencies are noted from both ceph and user contexts. Using
a separate class prevents the sk_lock(ceph) -> mmap_sem dependency and
makes lockdep happy.Signed-off-by: Sage Weil

Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a
delegation since commit 8e469ebd6dc32cbaf620e134d79f740bf0ebab79 (NFSv4:
Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it).According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file
(since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using
delegated opens.The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is
governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but
gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the
NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.Reported-by: Arnaud Giersch
