  • ba8df43c0   [PATCH] autofs4: panic after mount fail ... Browse Code »

    Resolve the panic on failed mount of an autofs filesystem originally
    reported by Mao Bibo.

    It addresses two issues that happen after the mount fail. The first a NULL
    pointer reference to a field (pipe) in the autofs superblock info structure
    and second the lack of super block cleanup by the autofs and autofs4
    modules.

  • 088406bcf   [PATCH] nfsd: fix spurious error return from nfsd_create in async case ... Browse Code »

    Commit 6264d69d7df654ca64f625e9409189a0e50734e9 modified the nfsd_create()
    error handling in such a way that nfsd_create will usually return
    nfserr_perm even when succesful, if the export has the async export option.

    This introduced a regression that could cause mkdir() to always return a
    permissions error, even though the directory in question was actually
    succesfully created.

  • 81ac95c55   [PATCH] nfsd4: fix open-create permissions ... Browse Code »

    In the case where an open creates the file, we shouldn't be rechecking
    permissions to open the file; the open succeeds regardless of what the new
    file's mode bits say.

    This patch fixes the problem, but only by introducing yet another parameter
    to nfsd_create_v3. This is ugly. This will be fixed by later patches.

  • 6e659c639   [CIFS] Fix mount failure when domain not specified ... Browse Code »

    Fixes Samba bugzilla #4176

    When users do not specify their domain on mount, 2.6.18 started sending
    default domain instead of a null domain (which was the only way on some
    servers to use a default domain). Users of 2.6.18 who did not specify
    their domain name on mounts to certain common Windows servers that were
    members of a domain, but not the domain controller, would get mount
    failures which they did not get in 2.6.18

    This fixes that issue and should remove complaints about mount
    behavior changing.

  • e2de7f565   [DLM] fix oops in kref_put when removing a lockspace ... Browse Code »

    Now that the lockspace struct is freed when the last sysfs object is released
    this patch prevents use of that lockspace by sysfs. We attempt to re-get the
    lockspace from the lockspace list and fail the request if it has been removed.

    does this.

  • f1f2d8713   [PATCH] Fix user.* xattr permission check for sticky dirs ... Browse Code »

    The user.* extended attributes are only allowed on regular files and
    directories. Sticky directories further restrict write access to the owner
    and privileged users. (See the attr(5) man page for an explanation.)

    The original check in ext2/ext3 when user.* xattrs were merged was more
    restrictive than intended, and when the xattr permission checks were moved
    into the VFS, read access to user.* attributes on sticky directores ended
    up being denied in addition.

  • d2c89a428   [PATCH] reiserfs: reset errval after initializing bitmap cache ... Browse Code »

    Callers after reiserfs_init_bitmap_cache() expect errval to contain -EINVAL
    until much later. If a condition fails before errval is reset later,
    reiserfs_fill_super() will mistakenly return 0, causing an Oops in
    do_add_mount(). This patch resets errval to -EINVAL after the call.

    I view this as a temporary fix and real error codes should be used
    throughout reiserfs_fill_super().

  • 7ef55b8a0   [PATCH] NFS4: fix for recursive locking problem ... Browse Code »

    When I was performing some operations on NFS, I got below error on server
    side.

    =============================================
    [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]

    nfsd4/3525 is trying to acquire lock:

    but task is already holding lock:

    other info that might help us debug this:

    [] kernel_thread_helper+0x5/0xb
    ===================================================================

    Cause for this problem was,2 successive mutex_lock calls on 2 diffrent inodes ,as shown below

    static int
    nfsd4_clear_clid_dir(struct dentry *dir, struct dentry *dentry)
    {
    int status;

    /* For now this directory should already be empty, but we empty it of
    * any regular files anyway, just in case the directory was created by
    * a kernel from the future.... */
    nfsd4_list_rec_dir(dentry, nfsd4_remove_clid_file);
    mutex_lock(&dir->d_inode->i_mutex);
    status = vfs_rmdir(dir->d_inode, dentry);
    ...

    int vfs_rmdir(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry)
    {
    int error = may_delete(dir, dentry, 1);

    if (error)
    return error;

    if (!dir->i_op || !dir->i_op->rmdir)
    return -EPERM;

    DQUOT_INIT(dir);

    mutex_lock(&dentry->d_inode->i_mutex);
    ...

    So I have developed the patch to overcome this problem.

    758333458aa719bfc26ec16eafd4ad3a9e96014d fixes the not checked copy_to_user
    return value of compat_sys_pselect7. I ran into this too because of an old
    source tree, but my fix would look quite a bit different to Andi's fix.

    The reason is that the compat function IMHO should behave the very same as
    the non-compat function if possible. Since sys_pselect7 does not return
    -EFAULT in this specific case, change the compat code so it behaves like
    sys_pselect7.
