Relying on the sign (after casting to int) of the difference of two
quantities for comparison is usually wrong. For example, should a-b
turn out to be 2^31, the return value of cmp(a,b) is -2^31; but that
would also be the return value from cmp(b, a). So a compares less than
b and b compares less than a. One can also easily find three values
a,b,c such that a compares less than b, b compares less than c, but a
does not compare less than c.Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes

Same story as in commit 41080b5a2401 ("nfsd race fixes: ext2") (similar
ext2 fix) except that nilfs2 needs to use insert_inode_locked4() instead
of insert_inode_locked() and a bug of a check for dead inodes needs to
be fixed.If nilfs_iget() is called from nfsd after nilfs_new_inode() calls
insert_inode_locked4(), nilfs_iget() will wait for unlock_new_inode() at
the end of nilfs_mkdir()/nilfs_create()/etc to unlock the inode.If nilfs_iget() is called before nilfs_new_inode() calls
insert_inode_locked4(), it will create an in-core inode and read its
data from the on-disk inode. But, nilfs_iget() will find i_nlink equals
zero and fail at nilfs_read_inode_common(), which will lead it to call
iget_failed() and cleanly fail.However, this sanity check doesn't work as expected for reused on-disk
inodes because they leave a non-zero value in i_mode field and it
hinders the test of i_nlink. This patch also fixes the issue by
removing the test on i_mode that nilfs2 doesn't need.Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi

This patch removes filemap_write_and_wait_range() from nilfs_sync_file(),
because it triggers a data segment construction by calling
nilfs_writepages() with WB_SYNC_ALL. A data segment construction does not
remove the inode from the i_dirty list and it does not clear the
NILFS_I_DIRTY flag. Therefore nilfs_inode_dirty() still returns true,
which leads to an unnecessary duplicate segment construction in
nilfs_sync_file().A call to filemap_write_and_wait_range() is not needed, because NILFS2
does not rely on the generic writeback mechanisms. Instead it implements
its own mechanism to collect all dirty pages and write them into segments.
It is more efficient to initiate the segment construction directly in
nilfs_sync_file() without the detour over filemap_write_and_wait_range().Additionally the lock of i_mutex is not needed, because all code blocks
that are protected by i_mutex are also protected by a NILFS transaction:Function i_mutex nilfs_transaction

vma_dump_size() has been used several times on actual dumper and it is
supposed to return the same value for the same vma. But vma_dump_size()
could return different values for same vma.The known problem case is concurrent shared memory removal. If a vma is
used for a shared memory and that shared memory is removed between
writing program header and dumping vma memory, this will result in a
dump file which is internally consistent.To fix the problem, we set baseline to get dump size and store the size
into vma_filesz and always use the same vma dump size which is stored in
vma_filsz. The consistnecy with reality is not actually guranteed, but
it's tolerable since that is fully consistent with base line.Signed-off-by: Jungseung Lee

When trying to develop a custom format handler, the errors returned all
effectively get bucketed as EINVAL with no kernel messages. The other
errors (ENOMEM/EFAULT) are internal/obvious and basic. Thus any time a
bad handler is rejected, the developer has to walk the dense code and
try to guess where it went wrong. Needing to dive into kernel code is
itself a fairly high barrier for a lot of people.To improve this situation, let's deploy extensive pr_debug markers at
logical parse points, and add comments to the dense parsing logic. It
let's you see exactly where the parsing aborts, the string the kernel
received (useful when dealing with shell code), how it translated the
buffers to binary data, and how it will apply the mask at runtime.Some example output:

When a lot of netdevices are created, one of the bottleneck is the
creation of proc entries. This serie aims to accelerate this part.The current implementation for the directories in /proc is using a single
linked list. This is slow when handling directories with large numbers of
entries (eg netdevice-related entries when lots of tunnels are opened).This patch replaces this linked list by a red-black tree.
Here are some numbers:
dummy30000.batch contains 30 000 times 'link add type dummy'.
Before the patch:
$ time ip -b dummy30000.batch
real 2m31.950s
user 0m0.440s
sys 2m21.440s
$ time rmmod dummy
real 1m35.764s
user 0m0.000s
sys 1m24.088sAfter the patch:
$ time ip -b dummy30000.batch
real 2m0.874s
user 0m0.448s
sys 1m49.720s
$ time rmmod dummy
real 1m13.988s
user 0m0.000s
sys 1m1.008sThe idea of improving this part was suggested by Thierry Herbelot.

report as normal page.For small pages we rely on vm_normal_page() to filter out zero page, but
vm_normal_page() is not designed to handle pmds. We only get here due
hackish cast pmd to pte in smaps_pte_range() -- pte and pmd format is not
necessary compatible on each and every architecture.Let's add separate codepath to handle pmds. follow_trans_huge_pmd() will
detect huge zero page for us.We would need pmd_dirty() helper to do this properly. The patch adds it
to THP-enabled architectures which don't yet have one.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: use do_div to fix 32-bit build]

At one place we assign major number we found to ret. That assignment is
then never used and actually doesn't make any sense given how the code is
currently structured (the assignment comes from pre-git times). Just
remove it.Coverity id: 1226852.

In commit 1faf289454b9 ("ocfs2_dlm: disallow a domain join if node maps
mismatch") we introduced a new earlier NULL check so this one is not
needed. Also static checkers complain because we dereference it first
and then check for NULL.Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter

Do not set the filesystem readonly if the storage link is down. In this
case, metadata is not corrupted and only -EIO is returned. And if it is
indeed corrupted metadata, it has already called ocfs2_error() in
ocfs2_validate_inode_block().Signed-off-by: Yiwen Jiang

ocfs2_readpages() use nonblocking flag to avoid page lock inversion. It
will trigger cluster hang because that flag OCFS2_LOCK_UPCONVERT_FINISHING
is not cleared if nonblocking lock cannot be granted at once. The flag
would prevent dc thread from downconverting. So other nodes cannot
acheive this lockres for ever.So we should not set OCFS2_LOCK_UPCONVERT_FINISHING when receiving ast if
nonblocking lock had already returned.Signed-off-by: joyce.xue

Error handling if creation of root of debugfs in ocfs2_init() fails is
broken. Although error code is set we fail to exit ocfs2_init() with
error and thus initialization ends with success. Later when mounting a
filesystem, ocfs2 debugfs entries end up being created in the root of
debugfs filesystem which is confusing.Fix the error handling to bail out.

Filesize is not a good indication that the file needs to be synced.
An example where this breaks is:
1. Open the file in O_SYNC|O_RDWR
2. Read a small portion of the file (say 64 bytes)
3. Lseek to starting of the file
4. Write 64 bytesIf the node crashes, it is not written out to disk because this was not
committed in the journal and the other node which reads the file after
recovery reads stale data (even if the write on the other node was
successful)Signed-off-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues

Set nn_persistent_error to -ENOTCONN will stop reconnect since the
"stop" condition in o2net_start_connect() will be true.stop = (nn->nn_sc ||
(nn->nn_persistent_error &&
(nn->nn_persistent_error != -ENOTCONN || timeout == 0)));This will make connection never be established if the first connection
request is lost.Set nn_persistent_error to 0 when connect expired to fix this. With
this changes, dlm will not be waken up when connect expired, this is OK
since dlm depends on network, dlm can do nothing in this case if waken
up. Let it wait there for network recover and connect built again to
continue.Signed-off-by: Junxiao Bi

Node A sends master query request to node B which is the master. At this
time lockres happens to be on purgelist. dlm_master_request_handler gets
the dlm spinlock, finds the resource and releases the dlm spin lock.
Right at this dlm_thread on this node could purge the lockres.
dlm_master_request_handler can then acquire lockres spinlock and reply to
Node A that node B is the master even though lockres on node B is purged.The above scenario will now make node A falsely think node B is the master
which is inconsistent. Further if another node C tries to master the same
resource, every node will respond they are not the master. Node C then
masters the resource and sends assert master to all nodes. This will now
make node A crash with the following message.dlm_assert_master_handler:1831 ERROR: DIE! Mastery assert from 9, but current

ocfs2_get_xattr_nolock() checks whether inode has any extended attributes
(OCFS2_HAS_XATTR_FL). If not, it just sets 'ret' to -ENODATA but
continues with checking inline and external attributes anyway (which is
pointless although it does not harm). Just return immediately when we
know there are no extended attributes in the inode.Coverity id: 1226906.
