| * | vfs: remove open_flags from d_real()Miklos Szeredi2018-07-182-14/+5Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Opening regular files on overlayfs is now handled via ovl_open(). Remove the now unused "open_flags" argument from d_op->d_real() and the d_real() helper. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>

* | | fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file iteration code and interfaceNeilBrown2018-08-181-21/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The documentation for seq_file suggests that it is necessary to be able to move the iterator to a given offset, however that is not the case. If the iterator is stored in the private data and is stable from one read() syscall to the next, it is only necessary to support first/next interactions. Implementing this in a client is a little clumsy. - if ->start() is given a pos of zero, it should go to start of sequence. - if ->start() is given the name pos that was given to the most recent next() or start(), it should restore the iterator to state just before that last call - if ->start is given another number, it should set the iterator one beyond the start just before the last ->start or ->next call. Also, the documentation says that the implementation can interpret the pos however it likes (other than zero meaning start), but seq_file increments the pos sometimes which does impose on the implementation. This patch simplifies the interface for first/next iteration and simplifies the code, while maintaining complete backward compatability. Now: - if ->start() is given a pos of zero, it should return an iterator placed at the start of the sequence - if ->start() is given a non-zero pos, it should return the iterator in the same state it was after the last ->start or ->next. This is particularly useful for interators which walk the multiple chains in a hash table, e.g. using rhashtable_walk*. See fs/gfs2/glock.c and drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/vvp_dev.c A large part of achieving this is to *always* call ->next after ->show has successfully stored all of an entry in the buffer. Never just increment the index instead. Also: - always pass &m->index to ->start() and ->next(), never a temp variable - don't clear ->from when ->count is zero, as ->from is dead when ->count is zero. Some ->next functions do not increment *pos when they return NULL. To maintain compatability with this, we still need to increment m->index in one place, if ->next didn't increment it. Note that such ->next functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1 Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps. This patch doesn't work around buggy next() functions for this case.

The biggest changes are the removal of buffer heads frm XFS, a massive reworking of the deferred transaction operations handling code, the removal of the long defunct barrier/nobarrier mount options, and the addition of a few more online repair functions. Summary: - Use extent maps to track pagecache page status instead of bufferhead state. - Refactor pagecache read and write paths to use the new iomap library functions, which enable us to drop the old bufferhead code for pagesize == blocksize filesystems. - Set up parallel per-block-per-page metadata to track subpage information that was tracked by buffer heads, which enables us to drop the old bufferhead code for pagesize > blocksize filesystems. - Tie a deferred ops control structure to a transaction so that we can take advantage of an upper-level dfops without having to plumb pointer passing through the code. - Refactor the deferred ops code to track deferred ops as part of the transaction structure (instead of as a separate data structure) so that we can simplify the scoping rules around defer_ops. - Refactor twisty delwri buffer submission code to avoid deadlocks. - Shorten and fix indenting problems in the scrub code. - Detect obviously bad summary counts at mount and fix them. - Directly associate deferred ops control structure with a transaction so that callers no longer have to manage it themselves. - Remove a couple of IRIX-era inode macros. - Remove the long-deprecated 'barrier' and 'nobarrier' mount options. - Clean up the inode fork structure a bit. - Check for bad fs summary counter values in the superblock. - Reduce COW fork lookups during writeback. - Refactor the deferred ops control structures into the transaction structure, thereby eliminating the need for transaction users to handle the deferred ops as a separate data structure. - Add the ability to repair AG headers online. - Fix a crash due to insufficient return value checking. - Various fixes and cleanups" * tag 'xfs-4.19-merge-6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: (155 commits) xfs: fix a null pointer dereference in xfs_bmap_extents_to_btree xfs: remove b_last_holder & associated macros iomap: Switch to offset_in_page for clarity xfs: Close race between direct IO and xfs_break_layouts() xfs: repair the AGI xfs: repair the AGFL xfs: repair the AGF xfs: remove dead error handling code in xfs_dquot_disk_alloc() xfs: use WRITE_ONCE to update if_seq xfs: fix a comment in xfs_log_reserve xfs: only validate summary counts on primary superblock xfs: substitute spaces with tabs xfs: fold dfops into the transaction xfs: always defer agfl block frees xfs: pass transaction to xfs_defer_add() xfs: replace xfs_defer_ops ->dop_pending with on-stack list xfs: cancel dfops on xfs_defer_finish() error xfs: clean out superfluous dfops dop params/vars xfs: drop dop param from xfs_defer_op_type ->finish_item() callback xfs: automatic dfops inode relogging ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because "->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect calls. Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the "->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections. But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental redesign.

It was delayed as I wanted to make sure the final driver deletions did not cause any major merge issues, and all now looks good. There are a lot of patches here, just over 1000. The diffstat summary shows the major changes here: 1007 files changed, 16828 insertions(+), 227770 deletions(-) Because of this, we might be close to shrinking the overall kernel source code size for two releases in a row. There was loads of work in this release cycle, primarily: - tons of ks7010 driver cleanups - lots of mt7621 driver fixes and cleanups - most driver cleanups - wilc1000 fixes and cleanups - lots and lots of IIO driver cleanups and new additions - debugfs cleanups for all staging drivers - lots of other staging driver cleanups and fixes, the shortlog has the full details. but the big user-visable things here are the removal of 3 chunks of code: - ncpfs and ipx were removed on schedule, no one has cared about this code since it moved to staging last year, and if it needs to come back, it can be reverted. - lustre file system is removed. I've ranted at the lustre developers about once a year for the past 5 years, with no real forward progress at all to clean things up and get the code into the "real" part of the kernel. Given that the lustre developers continue to work on an external tree and try to port those changes to the in-kernel tree every once in a while, this whole thing really really is not working out at all. So I'm deleting it so that the developers can spend the time working in their out-of-tree location and get things cleaned up properly to get merged into the tree correctly at a later date. Because of these file removals, you will have merge issues on some of these files (2 in the ipx code, 1 in the ncpfs code, and 1 in the atomisp driver).

Embedded devices often use NFS for their root filesystem but typically do not contain an RTC, so the clocks of the NFS server and the embedded device will be out-of-sync when the root filesystem is mounted (and may not be synchronised until late in the boot process). Extend ipconfig with the ability to export IP addresses of NTP servers it discovers to /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers. They can be supplied as follows: - If ipconfig is configured manually via the "ip=" or "nfsaddrs=" kernel command line parameters, one NTP server can be specified in the new "<ntp0-ip>" parameter. - If ipconfig is autoconfigured via DHCP, request DHCP option 42 in the DHCPDISCOVER message, and record the IP addresses of up to three NTP servers sent by the responding DHCP server in the subsequent DHCPOFFER message. ipconfig will only write the NTP server IP addresses it discovers to /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers, one per line (in the order received from the DHCP server, if DHCP autoconfiguration is used); making use of these NTP servers is the responsibility of a user space process (e.g. an initrd/initram script that invokes an NTP client before mounting an NFS root filesystem).
