percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Currently various places in the VFS call vfs_dq_init directly. This means
we tie the quota code into the VFS. Get rid of that and make the
filesystem responsible for the initialization. For most metadata operations
this is a straight forward move into the methods, but for truncate and
open it's a bit more complicated.
For truncate we currently only call vfs_dq_init for the sys_truncate case
because open already takes care of it for ftruncate and open(O_TRUNC) - the
new code causes an additional vfs_dq_init for those which is harmless.
For open the initialization is moved from do_filp_open into the open method,
which means it happens slightly earlier now, and only for regular files.
The latter is fine because we don't need to initialize it for operations
on special files, and we already do it as part of the namespace operations
for directories.
Add a dquot_file_open helper that filesystems that support generic quotas
can use to fill in ->open.

When we wait for an inode through reiserfs_iget(), we hold
the reiserfs lock. And waiting for an inode may imply waiting
for its writeback. But the inode writeback path may also require
the reiserfs lock, which leads to a deadlock.
We just need to release the reiserfs lock from reiserfs_iget()
to fix this.

On chown, reiserfs will call reiserfs_setattr() to change the owner
of the given inode, but it may also recursively call
reiserfs_setattr() to propagate the owner change to the private xattr
files for this inode.
Hence, the reiserfs lock may be acquired twice which is not wanted
as reiserfs_setattr() calls journal_begin() that is going to try to
relax the lock in order to safely acquire the journal mutex.
Using reiserfs_write_lock_once() from reiserfs_setattr() solves
the problem.
This fixes the following warning, that precedes a lockdep report.

When we were using the bkl, we didn't care about dependencies against
other locks, but the mutex conversion created new ones, which is why
we have reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe(), which unlocks the reiserfs lock
before acquiring another mutex.
But this trick actually fails if we have acquired the reiserfs lock
recursively, as we try to unlock it to acquire the new mutex without
inverted dependency, but we eventually only decrease its depth.
This happens in the case of a nested inode creation/deletion.
Say we have no space left on the device, we create an inode
and tak the lock but fail to create its entry, then we release the
inode using iput(), which calls reiserfs_delete_inode() that takes
the reiserfs lock recursively. The path eventually ends up in
journal_begin() where we try to take the journal safely but we
fail because of the reiserfs lock recursion:

reiserfs_commit_write() is always called with the write lock held.

reiserfs_get_block() is one of these sites where the write lock might
be acquired recursively.
It's a particular problem because this function is called very often.
It's a hot spot which needs to reschedule() periodically while converting
direct items to indirect ones because it can take some time.
Then if we are applying the write lock release/reacquire pattern on
schedule() here, it may not produce the desired effect since we may have
locked in more than one depth.
The solution is to use reiserfs_write_lock_once() which won't try
to reacquire the lock recursively. Then the lock will be *really*
released before schedule().
Also, we only release the lock if TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set to not
create wasteful numerous contentions.

Impact: fix a deadlock
reiserfs_truncate_file() can be called from multiple context where
the write lock can be already hold or not.
This function also acquire (possibly recursively) the write
lock. Subsequent releases before sleeping will not actually release
the lock because we may be in more than one lock depth degree.
A typical case is:
reiserfs_file_release {
acquire_the_lock()
reiserfs_truncate_file()
reacquire_the_lock()
journal_begin() {
do_journal_begin_r() {
reiserfs_wait_on_write_block() {
/*
* Not released because still one
* depth owned
*/
release_lock()
wait_for_event()
At this stage the event never happen because the one which provides
it needs the write lock.
We use reiserfs_write_lock_once() here to ensure that we don't acquire the
write lock recursively.

This patch is an attempt to remove the Bkl based locking scheme from
reiserfs and is intended.
It is a bit inspired from an old attempt by Peter Zijlstra:
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0704.2/2174.html
The bkl is heavily used in this filesystem to prevent from
concurrent write accesses on the filesystem.
Reiserfs makes a deep use of the specific properties of the Bkl:
- It can be acqquired recursively by a same task
- It is released on the schedule() calls and reacquired when schedule() returns
The two properties above are a roadmap for the reiserfs write locking so it's
very hard to simply replace it with a common mutex.
- We need a recursive-able locking unless we want to restructure several blocks
of the code.
- We need to identify the sites where the bkl was implictly relaxed
(schedule, wait, sync, etc...) so that we can in turn release and
reacquire our new lock explicitly.
Such implicit releases of the lock are often required to let other
resources producer/consumer do their job or we can suffer unexpected
starvations or deadlocks.
So the new lock that replaces the bkl here is a per superblock mutex with a
specific property: it can be acquired recursively by a same task, like the
bkl.
For such purpose, we integrate a lock owner and a lock depth field on the
superblock information structure.
The first axis on this patch is to turn reiserfs_write_(un)lock() function
into a wrapper to manage this mutex. Also some explicit calls to
lock_kernel() have been converted to reiserfs_write_lock() helpers.
The second axis is to find the important blocking sites (schedule...(),
wait_on_buffer(), sync_dirty_buffer(), etc...) and then apply an explicit
release of the write lock on these locations before blocking. Then we can
safely wait for those who can give us resources or those who need some.
Typically this is a fight between the current writer, the reiserfs workqueue
(aka the async commiter) and the pdflush threads.
The third axis is a consequence of the second. The write lock is usually
on top of a lock dependency chain which can include the journal lock, the
flush lock or the commit lock. So it's dangerous to release and trying to
reacquire the write lock while we still hold other locks.
This is fine with the bkl:
T1 T2
lock_kernel()

deadlock
The solution in this patch is to provide a helper which releases the write
lock and sleep a bit if we can't lock a mutex that depend on it. It's another
simulation of the bkl behaviour.
The last axis is to locate the fs callbacks that are called with the bkl held,
according to Documentation/filesystem/Locking.
Those are:
- reiserfs_remount
- reiserfs_fill_super
- reiserfs_put_super
Reiserfs didn't need to explicitly lock because of the context of these callbacks.
But now we must take care of that with the new locking.
After this patch, reiserfs suffers from a slight performance regression (for now).
On UP, a high volume write with dd reports an average of 27 MB/s instead
of 30 MB/s without the patch applied.

Some time ago, some changes were made to make security inode attributes
be atomically written during inode creation. ReiserFS fell behind in
this area, but with the reworking of the xattr code, it's now fairly
easy to add.
The following patch adds the ability for security attributes to be added
automatically during inode creation.

Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the
xattr sems.
This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is
twofold:
* It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr
write operations are initiated inside a transaction.
* It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any
differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata.
I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that
since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction
of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

ReiserFS panics can be somewhat inconsistent.
In some cases:
* a unique identifier may be associated with it
* the function name may be included
* the device may be printed separately
This patch aims to make warnings more consistent. reiserfs_warning() prints
the device name, so printing it a second time is not required. The function
name for a warning is always helpful in debugging, so it is now automatically
inserted into the output. Hans has stated that every warning should have
a unique identifier. Some cases lack them, others really shouldn't have them.
reiserfs_warning() now expects an id associated with each message. In the
rare case where one isn't needed, "" will suffice.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6:
inotify: fix type errors in interfaces
fix breakage in reiserfs_new_inode()
fix the treatment of jfs special inodes
vfs: remove duplicate code in get_fs_type()

affs: do not zero ->i_op
kill suid bit only for regular files
vfs: lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR) race condition
With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.
The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).
This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

With the removal of struct file from the xattr code,
reiserfs_file_release() isn't used anymore, so the prealloc isn't
discarded. This causes hangs later down the line.
This patch adds it to reiserfs_delete_inode. In most cases it will be a

Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions
zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)
Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
makes code clearer.
zero_user_segment(page, start, end)
Same for a single segment.
zero_user(page, start, length)
Length variant for the case where we know the length.
We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:
1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.
2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.
Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.
Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.
Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.
Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.
