* GFS2: Wake up io waiters whenever a flush is doneBob Peterson2017-01-061-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, if a process called function gfs2_log_reserve to reserve some journal blocks, but the journal not enough blocks were free, it would call io_schedule. However, in the log flush daemon, it woke up the waiters only if an gfs2_ail_flush was no longer required. This resulted in situations where processes would wait forever because the number of blocks required was so high that it pushed the journal into a perpetual state of flush being required. This patch changes the logd daemon so that it wakes up io waiters every time the log is actually flushed. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Made logd daemon take into account log demandBob Peterson2017-01-053-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, the logd daemon only tried to flush things when the log blocks pinned exceeded a certain threshold. But when we're deleting very large files, it may require a huge number of journal blocks, and that, in turn, may exceed the threshold. This patch factors that into account.

* GFS2: Limit number of transaction blocks requested for truncatesBob Peterson2017-01-051-3/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch limits the number of transaction blocks requested during file truncates. If we have very large multi-terabyte files, and want to delete or truncate them, they might span so many resource groups that we overflow the journal blocks, and cause an assert failure. By limiting the number of blocks in the transaction, we prevent this overflow and give other running processes time to do transactions. The limiting factor I chose is sd_log_thresh2 which is currently set to 4/5ths of the journal. This same ratio is used in function gfs2_ail_flush_reqd to determine when a log flush is required. If we make the maximum value less than this, we can get into a infinite hang whereby the log stops moving because the number of used blocks is less than the threshold and the iterative loop needs more, but since we're under the threshold, the log daemon never starts any IO on the log.

| * security, overlayfs: Provide hook to correctly label newly created filesVivek Goyal2016-08-081-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During a new file creation we need to make sure new file is created with the right label. New file is created in upper/ so effectively file should get label as if task had created file in upper/. We switched to mounter's creds for actual file creation. Also if there is a whiteout present, then file will be created in work/ dir first and then renamed in upper. In none of the cases file will be labeled as we want it to be. This patch introduces a new hook dentry_create_files_as(), which determines the label/context dentry will get if it had been created by task in upper and modify passed set of creds appropriately. Caller makes use of these new creds for file creation.

It also removes the REAL_FOPS_DEREF macro in file.c and converts the code to use the public version. Previously, REAL_FOPS_DEREF was only available within the file.c of debugfs. But having a public getter available for debugfs users is important as some drivers (carl9170 and b43) use the pointer of the original file_operations in conjunction with container_of() within their debugfs implementations.

Since fcl_lock is a spinlock and itself nests under i_lock, which too is a spinlock we cannot acquire sleeping locks at locks_{insert,remove}_global_locks(). We can however wrap all fcl_lock acquisitions with percpu_down_read such that all invocations of locks_{insert,remove}_global_locks() have that read lock held. This allows us to replace the lg_global part of the lglock with the write side of the rwsem. In the absense of writers, percpu_{down,up}_read() are free of atomic instructions. This further avoids the very long preempt-disable regions caused by lglock on larger machines.

(Matt Fleming) - Add ARM support for the EFI ESRT driver. (Ard Biesheuvel) - Make the EFI runtime services and efivar API interruptible by swapping spinlocks for semaphores. (Sylvain Chouleur) - Provide the EFI identity mapping for kexec which allows kexec to work on SGI/UV platforms with requiring the "noefi" kernel command line parameter. (Alex Thorlton) - Add debugfs node to dump EFI page tables on arm64. (Ard Biesheuvel) - Merge the EFI test driver being carried out of tree until now in the FWTS project. (Ivan Hu) - Expand the list of flags for classifying EFI regions as "RAM" on arm64 so we align with the UEFI spec. (Ard Biesheuvel) - Optimise out the EFI mixed mode if it's unsupported (CONFIG_X86_32) or disabled (CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=n) and switch the early EFI boot services function table for direct calls, alleviating us from having to maintain the custom function table.

Move one of the kfree()s until after the point at which we know we are definitely on the success path.

This is too restricted, we just need a lock preventing concurrency. The idea is to use a semaphore of count 1 and to have two ways of locking, depending on the context: - In interrupt context, we call down_trylock(), if it fails we return an error - In normal context, we call down_interruptible() We don't use a mutex here because the mutex_trylock() function must not be called from interrupt context, whereas the down_trylock() can.
