I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj-&gt;member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Convert to the much saner new idr interface.

Note that the adhoc cyclic id allocation is buggy.  If wraparound
happens, the previous code with idr_get_new_above() may segfault and
the converted code will trigger WARN and return -EINVAL.  Even if it's
fixed to wrap to zero, the code will be prone to unnecessary -ENOSPC
failures after the first wraparound.  We probably need to implement
proper cyclic support in idr.

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing -&gt;d_name/-&gt;d_parent
  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has -&gt;d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

<title>inotify: remove broken mask checks causing unmount to be EINVAL</title>
<updated>2013-02-22T01:22:16Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Jim Somerville</name>
<email>Jim.Somerville@windriver.com</email>
</author>
<published>2013-02-22T00:41:59Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/linux/commit/?id=676a0675cf9200ac047fb50825f80867b3bb733b'/>
<id>urn:sha1:676a0675cf9200ac047fb50825f80867b3bb733b</id>
<content type='text'>
Running the command:

	inotifywait -e unmount /mnt/disk

immediately aborts with a -EINVAL return code.  This is however a valid
parameter.  This abort occurs only if unmount is the sole event
parameter.  If other event parameters are supplied, then the unmount
event wait will work.

The problem was introduced by commit 44b350fc23e ("inotify: Fix mask
checks").  In that commit, it states:

	The mask checks in inotify_update_existing_watch() and
	inotify_new_watch() are useless because inotify_arg_to_mask()
	sets FS_IN_IGNORED and FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD bits anyway.

But instead of removing the useless checks, it did this:

	        mask = inotify_arg_to_mask(arg);
	-       if (unlikely(!mask))
	+       if (unlikely(!(mask &amp; IN_ALL_EVENTS)))
	                return -EINVAL;

The problem is that IN_ALL_EVENTS doesn't include IN_UNMOUNT, and other
parts of the code keep IN_UNMOUNT separate from IN_ALL_EVENTS.  So the
check should be:

	if (unlikely(!(mask &amp; (IN_ALL_EVENTS | IN_UNMOUNT))))

But inotify_arg_to_mask(arg) always sets the IN_UNMOUNT bit in the mask
anyway, so the check is always going to pass and thus should simply be
removed.  Also note that inotify_arg_to_mask completely controls what
mask bits get set from arg, there's no way for invalid bits to get
enabled there.

Lets fix it by simply removing the useless broken checks.

Pull filesystem notification updates from Eric Paris:
 "This pull mostly is about locking changes in the fsnotify system.  By
  switching the group lock from a spin_lock() to a mutex() we can now
  hold the lock across things like iput().  This fixes a problem
  involving unmounting a fs and having inodes be busy, first pointed out
  by FAT, but reproducible with tmpfs.

  This also restores signal driven I/O for inotify, which has been
  broken since about 2.6.32."

Ugh.  I *hate* the timing of this.  It was rebased after the merge
window opened, and then left to sit with the pull request coming the day
before the merge window closes.  That's just crap.  But apparently the
patches themselves have been around for over a year, just gathering
dust, so now it's suddenly critical.

Fixed up semantic conflict in fs/notify/fdinfo.c as per Stephen
Rothwell's fixes from -next.

* 'for-next' of git://git.infradead.org/users/eparis/notify:
  inotify: automatically restart syscalls
  inotify: dont skip removal of watch descriptor if creation of ignored event failed
  fanotify: dont merge permission events
  fsnotify: make fasync generic for both inotify and fanotify
  fsnotify: change locking order
  fsnotify: dont put marks on temporary list when clearing marks by group
  fsnotify: introduce locked versions of fsnotify_add_mark() and fsnotify_remove_mark()
  fsnotify: pass group to fsnotify_destroy_mark()
  fsnotify: use a mutex instead of a spinlock to protect a groups mark list
  fanotify: add an extra flag to mark_remove_from_mask that indicates wheather a mark should be destroyed
  fsnotify: take groups mark_lock before mark lock
  fsnotify: use reference counting for groups
  fsnotify: introduce fsnotify_get_group()
  inotify, fanotify: replace fsnotify_put_group() with fsnotify_destroy_group()

fsnotify_mark::mask|ignored_mask thus put it in @mflags (mark flags)
field so the user-space reader will be able to detect if such bit were
used on mark creation procedure.

This allow us to print out fsnotify details such as watchee inode, device,
mask and optionally a file handle.

For inotify objects if kernel compiled with exportfs support the output
will be

 | pos:	0
 | flags:	02000000
 | inotify wd:3 ino:9e7e sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0 fhandle-bytes:8 fhandle-type:1 f_handle:7e9e0000640d1b6d
 | inotify wd:2 ino:a111 sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0 fhandle-bytes:8 fhandle-type:1 f_handle:11a1000020542153
 | inotify wd:1 ino:6b149 sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0 fhandle-bytes:8 fhandle-type:1 f_handle:49b1060023552153

If kernel compiled without exportfs support, the file handle
won't be provided but inode and device only.

 | pos:	0
 | flags:	02000000
 | inotify wd:3 ino:9e7e sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0
 | inotify wd:2 ino:a111 sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0
 | inotify wd:1 ino:6b149 sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0

For fanotify the output is like

 | pos:	0
 | flags:	04002
 | fanotify flags:10 event-flags:0
 | fanotify mnt_id:12 mask:3b ignored_mask:0
 | fanotify ino:50205 sdev:800013 mask:3b ignored_mask:40000000 fhandle-bytes:8 fhandle-type:1 f_handle:05020500fb1d47e7

To minimize impact on general fsnotify code the new functionality
is gathered in fs/notify/fdinfo.c file.
