This fixes the following issues:
- When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that each
individual name fits, but the concatenation of all names doesn't fit,
reiserfs_listxattr() overflows the supplied buffer. This leads to a
kernel heap overflow (verified using KASAN) followed by an out-of-bounds
usercopy and is therefore a security bug.
- When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that a
name doesn't fit, -ERANGE should be returned. But reiserfs instead just
truncates the list of names; I have verified that if the only xattr on a
file has a longer name than the supplied buffer length, listxattr()
incorrectly returns zero.
With my patch applied, -ERANGE is returned in both cases and the memory
corruption doesn't happen anymore.
Credit for making me clean this code up a bit goes to Al Viro, who pointed
out that the ->actor calling convention is suboptimal and should be
changed.

This uses the deprecated time_t type but is write-only, and could be

In order to remove one of the last instances of time_t, this changes the
type to time64_t, same as j_trans_start_time.

Before linux-2.4.6, print_time() was used to pretty-print an inode time
when running reiserfs in user space, after that it has become obsolete and
is still a bit incorrect: It behaves differently on 32-bit and 64-bit
machines, and uses a static buffer to hold a string, which could lead to
undefined behavior if we ever called this from multiple places
simultaneously.
Since we always want to treat the timestamps as 'unsigned' anyway, simply
printing them as an integer is both simpler and safer while avoiding the
deprecated time_t type.

Using CLOCK_REALTIME time_t timestamps breaks on 32-bit systems in 2038,
and gives surprising results with a concurrent settimeofday().
This changes the reiserfs journal timestamps to use ktime_get_seconds()
instead, which makes it use a 64-bit CLOCK_MONOTONIC stamp.
In the procfs output, the monotonic timestamp needs to be converted back
to CLOCK_REALTIME to keep the existing ABI.

Files created under macOS cannot be opened under linux if their names
contain Korean characters, and vice versa.
The Korean alphabet is special because its normalization is done without a
table. The module deals with it correctly when composing, but forgets
about it for the decomposition.
Fix this using the Hangul decomposition function provided in the Unicode
Standard. The code fits a bit awkwardly because it requires a buffer,
while all the other normalizations are returned as pointers to the
decomposition table. This is actually also a bug because reordering may
still be needed, but for now leave it as it is.
The patch will cause trouble for Hangul filenames already created by the
module in the past. This shouldn't really be concern because its main
purpose was always sharing with macOS. If a user actually needs to access
such a file the nodecompose mount option should be enough.

After an extent is removed from the extent tree, the corresponding bits

The problem is that the allocation file has extents of its own; if it is

The userspace automount(8) daemon is meant to perform a forced expire when

But since the expiration is routed through the kernel and the kernel
doesn't send an expire request if the mount is busy this hasn't worked at
least since autofs version 5.
Add an AUTOFS_EXP_FORCED flag to allow implemention of the feature and
bump the protocol version so user space can check if it's implemented if
needed.

Depending on how it is configured the autofs user space daemon can leave
in use mounts mounted at exit and re-connect to them at start up. But for
this to work best the state of the autofs file system needs to be left
intact over the restart.
Also, at system shutdown, mounts in an autofs file system might be
umounted exposing a mount point trigger for which subsequent access can
lead to a hang. So recent versions of automount(8) now does its best to
set autofs file system mounts catatonic at shutdown.
When autofs file system mounts are catatonic it's currently possible to
create and remove directories and symlinks which can be a problem at
restart, as described above.
So return EACCES in the directory, symlink and unlink methods if the
autofs file system is catatonic.

Similar to other calls, ep_poll() is not called with interrupts disabled,

all, considering that the only path is
epoll_wait(2) -> do_epoll_wait() -> ep_poll().
When running on a 2 socket 40-core (ht) IvyBridge a common pipe based
epoll_wait(2) microbenchmark, the following performance improvements are
seen:
# threads vanilla dirty

And, the test does not work correctly when these arguments are all new as

Fix this by stripping the line continuations and any "+" from the list of

Only perform that minimum version test once and store the result to reduce
string matching time.
This reduces runtime execution time for patches or files with high line
counts.
An example runtime improvement:

A struct with a bool member can have different sizes on various
architectures because neither bool size nor alignment is standardized.
So emit a message on the use of bool in structs only in .h files and not
.c files.
There is the real possibility that this test could have a false positive
when a bool is declared as an automatic, so limit the test to .h files
where the only false positive is for declarations in static inline
functions.

Patch series "add crc64 calculation as kernel library", v5.
This patchset adds basic implementation of crc64 calculation as a Linux
kernel library. Since bcache already does crc64 by itself, this patchset
also modifies bcache code to use the new crc64 library routine.
Currently bcache is the only user of crc64 calculation, another potential
user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore
it makes sense to make crc64 calculation to be a public library.
bcache uses crc64 as storage checksum, if a change of crc lib routines
results an inconsistent result, the unmatched checksum may make bcache
'think' the on-disk is corrupted, such a change should be avoided or
detected as early as possible. Therefore a patch is being prepared which
adds a crc test framework, to check consistency of different calculations.
This patch (of 2):
Add the re-write crc64 calculation routines for Linux kernel. The CRC64
polynomical arithmetic follows ECMA-182 specification, inspired by CRC
paper of Dr. Ross N. Williams (see
http://www.ross.net/crc/download/crc_v3.txt) and other public domain
implementations.
All the changes work in this way,
- When Linux kernel is built, host program lib/gen_crc64table.c will be
compiled to lib/gen_crc64table and executed.
- The output of gen_crc64table execution is an array called as lookup
table (a.k.a POLY 0x42f0e1eba9ea369) which contain 256 64-bit long
numbers, this table is dumped into header file lib/crc64table.h.
- Then the header file is included by lib/crc64.c for normal 64bit crc
calculation.
- Function declaration of the crc64 calculation routines is placed in
include/linux/crc64.h
Currently bcache is the only user of crc64_be(), another potential user is
bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore it makes
sense to move crc64 calculation into lib/crc64.c as public code.

The behaviors are now:
--mpath <file> Read only the specific file as <MAINTAINER_TYPE> file
--mpath <directory> Read all files in <directory> as <MAINTAINER_TYPE> files
--mpath <directory> --find-maintainer-files

Sprinkle lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled() checks in the functions that do not
save and restore interrupts when dealing with the ep->wq.lock. These are
ep_scan_ready_list() and those called by epoll_ctl(): ep_insert, ep_modify
and ep_remove.

Both functions are similar to the context of ep_modify(), called via
epoll_ctl(2). Just like ep_modify(), saving and restoring interrupts is
an overkill in these calls as it will never be called with irqs disabled.
While ep_remove() can be called directly from EPOLL_CTL_DEL, it can also
be called when releasing the file, but this also complies with the above.

Patch series "fs/epoll: loosen irq safety when possible".
Both patches replace saving+restoring interrupts when taking the ep->lock
(now the waitqueue lock), with just disabling local irqs. This shows
immediate performance benefits in patch 1 for an epoll workload running on
Xen. The main concern we need to have with this sort of changes in epoll
is the ep_poll_callback() which is passed to the wait queue wakeup and is
done very often under irq context, this patch does not touch this call.
Patches have been tested pretty heavily with the customer workload,
microbenchmarks, ltp testcases and two high level workloads that use epoll
under the hood: nginx and libevent benchmarks.
This patch (of 2):
Saving and restoring interrupts in ep_scan_ready_list() is an
overkill as it is never called with interrupts disabled. Loosen
this to simply disabling local irqs such that archs where managing
irqs is expensive or virtual environments. This patch yields
some throughput improvements on a workload that is epoll intensive
running on a single Xen DomU.
1 Job 7500 --> 8800 enq/s (+17%)
2 Jobs 14000 --> 15200 enq/s (+8%)
3 Jobs 20500 --> 22300 enq/s (+8%)
4 Jobs 25000 --> 28000 enq/s (+8-12)%
On bare metal:
For a 2-socket 40-core (ht) IvyBridge on a few workloads, unfortunately I
don't have a xen environment and the results for Xen I do have (which
numbers are in patch 1) I don't have the actual workload, so cannot
compare them directly.
1) Different configurations were used for a epoll_wait (pipes io)
microbench (http://linux-scalability.org/epoll/epoll-test.c) and shows
around a 7-10% improvement in overall total number of times the
epoll_wait() loops when using both regular and nested epolls, so very
raw numbers, but measurable nonetheless.
