ext2: fix format string compile warning (ino_t)

2009-09-23T14:39:58Z

Unlike on most other architectures ino_t is an unsigned int on s390. So add an explicit cast to avoid this compile warning: fs/ext2/namei.c: In function 'ext2_lookup': fs/ext2/namei.c:73: warning: format '%lu' expects type 'long unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'ino_t' Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

HWPOISON: Enable .remove_error_page for migration aware file systems

2009-09-16T09:50:16Z

Enable removing of corrupted pages through truncation for a bunch of file systems: ext*, xfs, gfs2, ocfs2, ntfs These should cover most server needs. I chose the set of migration aware file systems for this for now, assuming they have been especially audited. But in general it should be safe for all file systems on the data area that support read/write and truncate. Caveat: the hardware error handler does not take i_mutex for now before calling the truncate function. Is that ok?

ext[234]: move over to 'check_acl' permission model

2009-09-08T18:09:04Z

Don't implement per-filesystem 'extX_permission()' functions that have to be called for every path component operation, and instead just expose the actual ACL checking so that the VFS layer can now do it for us. Reviewed-by: James Morris Acked-by: Serge Hallyn Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ext2: fix unbalanced kmap()/kunmap()

2009-09-05T20:41:08Z

In ext2_rename(), dir_page is acquired through ext2_dotdot(). It is then released through ext2_set_link() but only if old_dir != new_dir. Failing that, the pkmap reference count is never decremented and the page remains pinned forever. Repeat that a couple times with highmem pages and all pkmap slots get exhausted, and every further kmap() calls end up stalling on the pkmap_map_wait queue at which point the whole system comes to a halt.

headers: smp_lock.h redux

2009-07-12T19:22:34Z

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!) * Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it * Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW) Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ext2: return -EIO not -ESTALE on directory traversal through deleted inode

2009-07-01T01:56:00Z

ext2_iget() returns -ESTALE if invoked on a deleted inode, in order to report errors to NFS properly. However, in ext[234]_lookup(), this -ESTALE can be propagated to userspace if the filesystem is corrupted such that a directory entry references a deleted inode. This leads to a misleading error message - "Stale NFS file handle" - and confusion on the part of the admin. The bug can be easily reproduced by creating a new filesystem, making a link to an unused inode using debugfs, then mounting and attempting to ls -l said link. This patch thus changes ext2_lookup to return -EIO if it receives -ESTALE from ext2_iget(), as ext2 does for other filesystem metadata corruption; and also invokes the appropriate ext*_error functions when this case is detected.

helpers for acl caching + switch to those

2009-06-24T12:17:07Z

helpers: get_cached_acl(inode, type), set_cached_acl(inode, type, acl), forget_cached_acl(inode, type). ubifs/xattr.c needed includes reordered, the rest is a plain switchover. Signed-off-by: Al Viro
