VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38
The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename
because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent
directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the
appropriate unlink rpc call.
Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't
seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for
whether or not there is a race:
- __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent
- shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange
the dentries in that super block.
- have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a
deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry
is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.

We can't (and won't be able to) follow /proc/*/fd/* symlinks for those;

New kind of open files - "location only".
New flag for open(2) - O_PATH. Semantics:
* pathname is resolved, but the file itself is _NOT_ opened
as far as filesystem is concerned.
* almost all operations on the resulting descriptors shall
fail with -EBADF. Exceptions are:
1) operations on descriptors themselves (i.e.
close(), dup(), dup2(), dup3(), fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD),
fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC, ...), fcntl(fd, F_GETFD),
fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, ...))
2) fcntl(fd, F_GETFL), for a common non-destructive way to
check if descriptor is open
3) "dfd" arguments of ...at(2) syscalls, i.e. the starting
points of pathname resolution
* closing such descriptor does *NOT* affect dnotify or
posix locks.
* permissions are checked as usual along the way to file;
no permission checks are applied to the file itself. Of course,
giving such thing to syscall will result in permission checks (at
the moment it means checking that starting point of ....at() is
a directory and caller has exec permissions on it).
fget() and fget_light() return NULL on such descriptors; use of
fget_raw() and fget_raw_light() is needed to get them. That protects
existing code from dealing with those things.
There are two things still missing (they come in the next commits):
one is handling of symlinks (right now we refuse to open them that

We could just add a big fat comment to explain this, but actually

Use the helper function which disables page faults around the

the reset function pokes at the BCSR.SYSTEM_RESET register, but this does
not work. According to Bruno Randolf, this was not tested when written.
Previously, the generic au1000_restart() routine called the board specific

a jump to the reset vector, which really triggers a system restart. Fix

-
446a5a8b1eb91a6990e5c8fe29f14e7a95b69132
ARM: 6205/1: perf: ensure counter delta is treated as unsigned
Hardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t
variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure.
The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable
and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits
if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output
such as:
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20':
18446744073460670464 cycles <-- 0xFFFFFFFFF12A6000
7783773 instructions # 0.000 IPC
465 context-switches
161 page-faults
1172393 branches
20.
154242147 seconds time elapsed
This patch ensures that the delta value is treated as unsigned so that the
right shift sets the upper bits to zero.

perf: Rework the PMU methods
Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.
The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
the generic stopped state.
This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
code paths (like IRQ handlers).
It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).
The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
how the architecture implemented the throttled state:
1) We disable the counter:
a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state
2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events
For MIPSXX, the stopped state is implemented in the way of 1.b as above.

irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.
For MIPSXX, we need to call irq_work_run() at the tail of the perf IRQ

The old prepare_ftrace_return() for MIPS is confused and have introduced
some problem. This patch cleans up the names of the arguments, variables

For MIPS, the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not really the
'selfpc' described in ftrace-design.txt but instead it is the self
return address. This did break the compatibility of the generic
interface but really reduced one unneeded calculation for to get the
current function name, the parent return address and the self return

self address.
But set_graph_function of function graph tracer is an exception, it does
need the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() as 'selfpc', for it
will use 'selfpc' to match user's configuration of function graph
entries, but in reality, it doesn't need the 'selfpc' but the recorded
ip address of the mcount calling site in the __mcount_loc section. So,
the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not important, the real

The reasons we do not want to set the identity mapping from 0->

try to read DMI information and fail (no permissions to read that).
There is a lot of gnarly code to deal with that weird region so

xen/mmu: Add the notion of identity (1-1) mapping.
Our P2M tree structure is a three-level. On the leaf nodes
we set the Machine Frame Number (MFN) of the PFN. What this means
is that when one does: pfn_to_mfn(pfn), which is used when creating
PTE entries, you get the real MFN of the hardware. When Xen sets
up a guest it initially populates a array which has descending
(or ascending) MFN values, as so:
idx: 0, 1, 2
[0x290F, 0x290E, 0x290D, ..]
so pfn_to_mfn(2)==0x290D. If you start, restart many guests that list
starts looking quite random.
We graft this structure on our P2M tree structure and stick in
those MFN in the leafs. But for all other leaf entries, or for the top
root, or middle one, for which there is a void entry, we assume it is
"missing". So
pfn_to_mfn(0xc0000)=INVALID_P2M_ENTRY.
We add the possibility of setting 1-1 mappings on certain regions, so
that:
pfn_to_mfn(0xc0000)=0xc0000
The benefit of this is, that we can assume for non-RAM regions (think
PCI BARs, or ACPI spaces), we can create mappings easily b/c we
get the PFN value to match the MFN.
For this to work efficiently we introduce one new page p2m_identity and
allocate (via reserved_brk) any other pages we need to cover the sides
(1GB or 4MB boundary violations). All entries in p2m_identity are set to
INVALID_P2M_ENTRY type (Xen toolstack only recognizes that and MFNs,
no other fancy value).
On lookup we spot that the entry points to p2m_identity and return the identity
value instead of dereferencing and returning INVALID_P2M_ENTRY. If the entry
points to an allocated page, we just proceed as before and return the PFN.
If the PFN has IDENTITY_FRAME_BIT set we unmask that in appropriate functions
(pfn_to_mfn).
The reason for having the IDENTITY_FRAME_BIT instead of just returning the
PFN is that we could find ourselves where pfn_to_mfn(pfn)==pfn for a
non-identity pfn. To protect ourselves against we elect to set (and get) the
IDENTITY_FRAME_BIT on all identity mapped PFNs.
This simplistic diagram is used to explain the more subtle piece of code.
There is also a digram of the P2M at the end that can help.
Imagine your E820 looking as so:
1GB 2GB
/-------------------+---------\/----\ /----------\ /---+-----\
| System RAM | Sys RAM ||ACPI| | reserved | | Sys RAM |
\-------------------+---------/\----/ \----------/ \---+-----/
^- 1029MB ^- 2001MB
[1029MB = 263424 (0x40500), 2001MB = 512256 (0x7D100), 2048MB = 524288 (0x80000)]
And dom0_mem=max:3GB,1GB is passed in to the guest, meaning memory past 1GB
is actually not present (would have to kick the balloon driver to put it in).
When we are told to set the PFNs for identity mapping (see patch: "xen/setup:
Set identity mapping for non-RAM E820 and E820 gaps.") we pass in the start
of the PFN and the end PFN (263424 and 512256 respectively). The first step is
to reserve_brk a top leaf page if the p2m[1] is missing. The top leaf page
covers 512^2 of page estate (1GB) and in case the start or end PFN is not
aligned on 512^2*PAGE_SIZE (1GB) we loop on aligned 1GB PFNs from start pfn to
end pfn. We reserve_brk top leaf pages if they are missing (means they point
to p2m_mid_missing).
With the E820 example above, 263424 is not 1GB aligned so we allocate a
reserve_brk page which will cover the PFNs estate from 0x40000 to 0x80000.
Each entry in the allocate page is "missing" (points to p2m_missing).
Next stage is to determine if we need to do a more granular boundary check
on the 4MB (or 2MB depending on architecture) off the start and end pfn's.
We check if the start pfn and end pfn violate that boundary check, and if
so reserve_brk a middle (p2m[x][y]) leaf page. This way we have a much finer
granularity of setting which PFNs are missing and which ones are identity.
In our example 263424 and 512256 both fail the check so we reserve_brk two
pages. Populate them with INVALID_P2M_ENTRY (so they both have "missing" values)
and assign them to p2m[1][2] and p2m[1][488] respectively.
At this point we would at minimum reserve_brk one page, but could be up to
three. Each call to set_phys_range_identity has at maximum a three page
cost. If we were to query the P2M at this stage, all those entries from
start PFN through end PFN (so 1029MB -> 2001MB) would return INVALID_P2M_ENTRY
("missing").
The next step is to walk from the start pfn to the end pfn setting
the IDENTITY_FRAME_BIT on each PFN. This is done in 'set_phys_range_identity'.
If we find that the middle leaf is pointing to p2m_missing we can swap it over
to p2m_identity - this way covering 4MB (or 2MB) PFN space. At this point we
do not need to worry about boundary aligment (so no need to reserve_brk a middle
page, figure out which PFNs are "missing" and which ones are identity), as that
has been done earlier. If we find that the middle leaf is not occupied by
p2m_identity or p2m_missing, we dereference that page (which covers
512 PFNs) and set the appropriate PFN with IDENTITY_FRAME_BIT. In our example
263424 and 512256 end up there, and we set from p2m[1][2][256->511] and
p2m[1][488][0->256] with IDENTITY_FRAME_BIT set.
All other regions that are void (or not filled) either point to p2m_missing
(considered missing) or have the default value of INVALID_P2M_ENTRY (also
considered missing). In our case, p2m[1][2][0->255] and p2m[1][488][257->511]
contain the INVALID_P2M_ENTRY value and are considered "missing."
This is what the p2m ends up looking (for the E820 above) with this
fabulous drawing:
p2m /--------------\
/-----\ | &mfn_list[0],| /-----------------\

reduce vfs_path_lookup() to do_path_lookup()
New lookup flag: LOOKUP_ROOT. nd->root is set (and held) by caller,
path_init() starts walking from that place and all pathname resolution
machinery never drops nd->root if that flag is set. That turns
vfs_path_lookup() into a special case of do_path_lookup() *and*
gets us down to 3 callers of link_path_walk(), making it finally
feasible to rip the handling of trailing symlink out of link_path_walk().
That will not only simply the living hell out of it, but make life
much simpler for unionfs merge. Trailing symlink handling will
become iterative, which is a good thing for stack footprint in
a lot of situations as well.

untangle do_lookup()
That thing has devolved into rats nest of gotos; sane use of unlikely()
gets rid of that horror and gives much more readable structure:
* make a fast attempt to find a dentry; false negatives are OK.
In RCU mode if everything went fine, we are done, otherwise just drop
out of RCU. If we'd done (RCU) ->d_revalidate() and it had not refused
outright (i.e. didn't give us -ECHILD), remember its result.
* now we are not in RCU mode and hopefully have a dentry. If we
do not, lock parent, do full d_lookup() and if that has not found anything,
allocate and call ->lookup(). If we'd done that ->lookup(), remember that
dentry is good and we don't need to revalidate it.
* now we have a dentry. If it has ->d_revalidate() and we can't
skip it, call it.
* hopefully dentry is good; if not, either fail (in case of error)
or try to invalidate it. If d_invalidate() has succeeded, drop it and
retry everything as if original attempt had not found a dentry.
* now we can finish it up - deal with mountpoint crossing and
automount.
