Saves a pointer per struct dentry and actually makes the things less
clumsy. Cleaned the d_walk() and dcache_readdir() a bit by use
of hlist_for_... iterators.
A couple of new helpers - d_first_child() and d_next_sibling(),
to make the expressions less awful.

Pull vfs inode time accessor updates from Christian Brauner:
"This finishes the conversion of all inode time fields to accessor
functions as discussed on list. Changing timestamps manually as we
used to do before is error prone. Using accessors function makes this
robust.
It does not contain the switch of the time fields to discrete 64 bit
integers to replace struct timespec and free up space in struct inode.
But after this, the switch can be trivially made and the patch should
only affect the vfs if we decide to do it"

We are seeing systemd hang on its autofs direct mount at
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc.
Historically this was due to a mismatch in the communication structure
size between a 64 bit kernel and a 32 bit user space and was fixed by
making the pipe communication record oriented.
During autofs v5 development I decided to stay with the existing usage
instead of changing to a packed structure for autofs <=> user space
communications which turned out to be a mistake on my part.
Problems arose and they were fixed by allowing for the 64 bit to 32
bit size difference in the automount(8) code.
Along the way systemd started to use autofs and eventually encountered
this problem too. systemd refused to compensate for the length
difference insisting it be fixed in the kernel. Fortunately Linus
implemented the packetized pipe which resolved the problem in a
straight forward and simple way.
In the autofs mount api conversion series I inadvertatly dropped the
packet pipe flag settings when adding the autofs_parse_fd() function.
This patch fixes that omission.

Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs,
xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant
filesystems.
The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per
jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache.
Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support
a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp
granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps
(e.g., backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve
the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.
This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are
actively queried.
This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that
something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag
is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a
fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.
As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime
must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so
only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.
Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included:
- Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime
together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all
maintainers provided necessary Acks.
- Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all
callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now
gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented
as requiring accessors.
- Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a
sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request
mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in.
- Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now
parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers.
- Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it
removing a bunch of open-coding"

In autofs_wait_release() wake_up() is used to wake up processes waiting
on a mount callback to complete which matches the wait_event_killable()

But in autofs_catatonic_mode() the wake_up_interruptible() was not also
changed at the time autofs_wait_release() was changed.

autofs_wait_queue structs should be freed if their wait_ctr becomes zero.
Otherwise they will be lost.
In this case an AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_MULTI ioctl is done, then a new
waitqueue struct is allocated in autofs_wait(), its initial wait_ctr
equals 2. After that wait_event_killable() is interrupted (it returns
-ERESTARTSYS), so that 'wq->name.name == NULL' condition may be not
satisfied. Actually, this condition can be satisfied when
autofs_wait_release() or autofs_catatonic_mode() is called and, what is
also important, wait_ctr is decremented in those places. Upon the exit of
autofs_wait(), wait_ctr is decremented to 1. Then the unmounting process
begins: kill_sb calls autofs_catatonic_mode(), which should have freed the
waitqueues, but it only decrements its usage counter to zero which is not
a correct behaviour.
edit:imk
This description is of course not correct. The umount performed as a result
of an expire is a umount of a mount that has been automounted, it's not the
autofs mount itself. They happen independently, usually after everything
mounted within the autofs file system has been expired away. If everything
hasn't been expired away the automount daemon can still exit leaving mounts
in place. But expires done in both cases will result in a notification that
calls autofs_wait_release() with a result status. The problem case is the
summary execution of of the automount daemon. In this case any waiting
processes won't be woken up until either they are terminated or the mount
is umounted.
end edit: imk
So in catatonic mode we should free waitqueues which counter becomes zero.
edit: imk
Initially I was concerned that the calling of autofs_wait_release() and
autofs_catatonic_mode() was not mutually exclusive but that can't be the
case (obviously) because the queue entry (or entries) is removed from the
list when either of these two functions are called. Consequently the wait
entry will be freed by only one of these functions or by the woken process
in autofs_wait() depending on the order of the calls.

Commit a2225d931f75 ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs")
promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.
Get rid of it mechanically:
git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'
Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub. Anybody who hasn't
regenerated their config file in the last five years will need to just
get the new name right when they do.

Convert to struct mnt_idmap.
Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in
256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts").
This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a
mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to
conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for
bugs.
Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the
really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems

The dentry info. field count is used to check if a dentry is in use
during expire. But, to be used for this the count field must account for
the presence of child dentries in a directory dentry.
Therefore it can also be used to check for an empty directory dentry which
can be done without having to to take an additional lock or account for
the presence of a readdir cursor dentry as is done by simple_empty().

There's a mistake in commit 2be7828c9fefc ("get rid of autofs_getpath()")
that affects kernels from v5.13.0, basically missed because of me not
fully testing the change for Al.
The problem is that the hash calculation for the wait name qstr hasn't
been updated to account for the change to use dentry_path_raw(). This
prevents the correct matching an existing wait resulting in multiple
notifications being sent to the daemon for the same mount which must
not occur.
The problem wasn't discovered earlier because it only occurs when
multiple processes trigger a request for the same mount concurrently
so it only shows up in more aggressive testing.

allow wq->name.name to point not at the beginning of the object containing
the string, with wq->offset telling how far into it we are. Then we can
bloody well just use dentry_path_raw() instead of autofs_getpath() -
the only real difference is that dentry_path_raw() puts the result into
the end of buffer and returns where it starts.

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A
filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user
namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for
additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to
translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all
relevant helpers in earlier patches.
As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of
introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly
mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

autofs got broken in some configurations by commit 13c164b1a186
("autofs: switch to kernel_write") because there is now an extra LSM
permission check done by security_file_permission() in rw_verify_area().
autofs is one if the few places that really does want the much more
limited __kernel_write(), because the write is an internal kernel one
that shouldn't do any user permission checks (it also doesn't need the
file_start_write/file_end_write logic, since it's just a pipe).
There are a couple of other cases like that - accounting, core dumping,
and splice - but autofs stands out because it can be built as a module.
As a result, we need to export this internal __kernel_write() function
again.
We really don't want any other module to use this, but we don't have a
"EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_AUTOFS_ONLY()". But we can mark it GPL-only to at
least approximate that "internal use only" for licensing.
While in this area, make autofs pass in NULL for the file position
pointer, since it's always a pipe, and we now use a NULL file pointer
for streaming file descriptors (see file_ppos() and commit 438ab720c675:
"vfs: pass ppos=NULL to .read()/.write() of FMODE_STREAM files")
This effectively reverts commits 9db977522449 ("fs: unexport
__kernel_write") and 13c164b1a186 ("autofs: switch to kernel_write").

Pull autofs updates from Al Viro:
"autofs misuses checks for ->d_subdirs emptiness; the cursors are in
the same lists, resulting in false negatives. It's not needed anyway,
since autofs maintains counter in struct autofs_info, containing 0 for
removed ones, 1 for live symlinks and 1 + number of children for live
directories, which is precisely what we need for those checks.
This series switches to use of that counter and untangles the crap
around its uses (it needs not be atomic and there's a bunch of
completely pointless "defensive" checks).
This fell out of dcache_readdir work; the main point is to get rid of
->d_subdirs abuses in there. I've more followup cleanups, but I hadn't

All writers are serialized on inode->i_rwsem. So are the readers
outside of expire.c. And the readers in expire.c are in the
code that really doesn't care about narrow races - it's looking
for expiry candidates and its callers have to cope with the
possibility of a good candidate becoming busy right under them.
No point bothering with atomic operations - just use int and
mark the non-serialized readers with READ_ONCE().

We want to find out if the parent will become empty after we remove

We do maintain ino->count - 0 for anything removed, 1 + number of

look for positive child in prev; if not found, look for the
positive child of prev's parent following prev, etc. That way
we are guaranteed that we are only moving rootwards through the
ancestors of prev, which is pinned and thus not going anywhere.
Since ->d_parent on autofs never changes, the same goes for
the entire chain of ancestors and we don't need overlapping
->d_lock on them. Which avoids the trylock loops, in addition
to simplifying the logics in there...

autofs does not expect the pipe it is given to have O_NONBLOCK set -
specifically if __kernel_write() in autofs_write() returns -EAGAIN, this
is treated as a fatal error and the pipe is closed.
For safety autofs should, therefore, clear the O_NONBLOCK flag.
Releases of systemd prior to 8th February 2019 used
pipe2(p, O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC)
and thus (inadvertently) set this flag.

Add an autofs file system mount option that can be used to provide a
generic indicator to applications that the mount entry should be ignored
when displaying mount information.
In other OSes that provide autofs and that provide a mount list to user
space based on the kernel mount list a no-op mount option ("ignore" is
the one use on the most common OS) is allowed so that autofs file system
users can optionally use it.
The idea is that it be used by user space programs to exclude autofs
mounts from consideration when reading the mounts list.
Prior to the change to link /etc/mtab to /proc/self/mounts all I needed
to do to achieve this was to use mount(2) and not update the mtab but
now that no longer works.
I know the symlinking happened a long time ago and I considered doing
this then but, at the time I couldn't remember the commonly used option
name and thought persuading the various utility maintainers would be too
hard.
But now I have a RHEL request to do this for compatibility for a widely
used product so I want to go ahead with it and try and enlist the help
of some utility package maintainers.
Clearly, without the option nothing can be done so it's at least a
start.

count of dentry only when it is never used.

Commit 092a53452bb7 ("autofs: take more care to not update last_used on
path walk") helped to (partially) resolve a problem where automounts
were not expiring due to aggressive accesses from user space.
This patch was later reverted because, for very large environments, it
meant more mount requests from clients and when there are a lot of
clients this caused a fairly significant increase in server load.
But there is a need for both types of expire check, depending on use
case, so add a mount option to allow for strict update of last use of
autofs dentrys (which just means not updating the last use on path walk
access).

Al Viro made some suggestions to improve the implementation of commit
0633da48f0 ("fix autofs_sbi() does not check super block type").
The check is unnecessary in all cases except for ioctl usage so placing
the check in the super block accessor function adds a small overhead to
the common case where it isn't needed.
So it's sufficient to do this in the ioctl code only.
Also the check in the ioctl code is needlessly complex.

The userspace automount(8) daemon is meant to perform a forced expire when
sent a SIGUSR2.
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.

The global variable "now" in fs/autofs/expire.c is used in an inconsistent
way, sometimes using jiffies directly, and sometimes using the "now"
variable, and setting it isn't done consistently either.
But the autofs dentry info last_used field is only updated during path
walks or during expire so jiffies can be used directly and the global
variable "now" removed.

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.

Pull core signal handling updates from Eric Biederman:
"It was observed that a periodic timer in combination with a
sufficiently expensive fork could prevent fork from every completing.
This contains the changes to remove the need for that restart.
This set of changes is split into several parts:
- The first part makes PIDTYPE_TGID a proper pid type instead
something only for very special cases. The part starts using
PIDTYPE_TGID enough so that in __send_signal where signals are
actually delivered we know if the signal is being sent to a a group
of processes or just a single process.
- With that prep work out of the way the logic in fork is modified so
that fork logically makes signals received while it is running
appear to be received after the fork completes"
* 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (22 commits)
signal: Don't send signals to tasks that don't exist
signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in.
fork: Have new threads join on-going signal group stops
fork: Skip setting TIF_SIGPENDING in ptrace_init_task
signal: Add calculate_sigpending()
fork: Unconditionally exit if a fatal signal is pending
fork: Move and describe why the code examines PIDNS_ADDING
signal: Push pid type down into complete_signal.
signal: Push pid type down into __send_signal
signal: Push pid type down into send_signal
signal: Pass pid type into do_send_sig_info
signal: Pass pid type into send_sigio_to_task & send_sigurg_to_task
signal: Pass pid type into group_send_sig_info
signal: Pass pid and pid type into send_sigqueue
posix-timers: Noralize good_sigevent
signal: Use PIDTYPE_TGID to clearly store where file signals will be sent
pid: Implement PIDTYPE_TGID
pids: Move the pgrp and session pid pointers from task_struct to signal_struct
kvm: Don't open code task_pid in kvm_vcpu_ioctl
pids: Compute task_tgid using signal->leader_pid
...
|
|
To access these fields the code always has to go to group leader so
going to signal struct is no loss and is actually a fundamental simplification.
This saves a little bit of memory by only allocating the pid pointer array
once instead of once for every thread, and even better this removes a
few potential races caused by the fact that group_leader can be changed
by de_thread, while signal_struct can not.

The autofs subsystem does not check that the "path" parameter is present
for all cases where it is required when it is passed in via the "param"
struct.
In particular it isn't checked for the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_OPENMOUNT_CMD
ioctl command.
To solve it, modify validate_dev_ioctl(function to check that a path has
been provided for ioctl commands that require it.

It turns out that systemd has a bug: it wants to load the autofs module
early because of some initialization ordering with udev, and it doesn't
do that correctly. Everywhere else it does the proper "look up module
name" that does the proper alias resolution, but in that early code, it
just uses a hardcoded "autofs4" for the module name.
The result of that is that as of commit a2225d931f75 ("autofs: remove
left-over autofs4 stubs"), you get
systemd[1]: Failed to insert module 'autofs4': No such file or directory
in the system logs, and a lack of module loading. All this despite the
fact that we had very clearly marked 'autofs4' as an alias for this
module.
What's so ridiculous about this is that literally everything else does
the module alias handling correctly, including really old versions of
systemd (that just used 'modprobe' to do this), and even all the other
systemd module loading code.
Only that special systemd early module load code is broken, hardcoding
the module names for not just 'autofs4', but also "ipv6", "unix",
"ip_tables" and "virtio_rng". Very annoying.
Instead of creating an _additional_ separate compatibility 'autofs4'
module, just rely on the fact that everybody else gets this right, and
just call the module 'autofs4' for compatibility reasons, with 'autofs'
as the alias name.
That will allow the systemd people to fix their bugs, adding the proper
alias handling, and maybe even fix the name of the module to be just
"autofs" (so that they can _test_ the alias handling). And eventually,
we can revert this silly compatibility hack.

There's no need to retain the fs/autofs4 directory for backward
compatibility.
Adding an AUTOFS4_FS fragment to the autofs Kconfig and a module alias
for autofs4 is sufficient for almost all cases. Not keeping fs/autofs4
remnants will prevent "insmod <path>/autofs4/autofs4.ko" from working
but this shouldn't be used in automation scripts rather than
modprobe(8).
There were some comments about things to look out for with the module
rename in the fs/autofs4/Kconfig that is removed by this patch, see the
commit patch if you are interested.
One potential problem with this change is that when the
fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS is removed any AUTOFS4_FS
entries will be removed from the kernel config, resulting in no autofs
file system being built if there is no AUTOFS_FS entry also.
This would have also happened if the fs/autofs4 remnants had remained
and is most likely to be a problem with automated builds.
Please check your build configurations before the removal which will
occur after the next couple of kernel releases.

Do not use the fallback default_llseek() if the readdir operation of the
filesystem still uses the big kernel lock.
Since llseek() modifies
file->f_pos of the directory directly it may need locking to not confuse
readdir which usually uses file->f_pos directly as well
Since the special characteristics of the BKL (unlocked on schedule) are
not necessary in this case, the inode mutex can be used for locking as
provided by generic_file_llseek(). This is only possible since all
filesystems, except reiserfs, either use a directory as a flat file or
with disk address offsets. Reiserfs on the other hand uses a 32bit hash
off the filename as the offset so generic_file_llseek() can get used as
well since the hash is always smaller than sb->s_maxbytes (= (512 << 32) -
blocksize).

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
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.

The set of functions process_session, task_session, process_group and
task_pgrp is confusing, as the names can be mixed with each other when looking
at the code for a long time.
The proposals are to
* equip the functions that return the integer with _nr suffix to
represent that fact,
* and to make all functions work with task (not process) by making
the common prefix of the same name.
For monotony the routines signal_session() and set_signal_session() are
replaced with task_session_nr() and set_task_session(), especially since they
are only used with the explicit task->signal dereference.

and then deadlock comes.
The problem: autofs_fill_super() returns EINVAL to get_sb_nodev(), but
before that, it calls kill_anon_super() to destroy the superblock which
won't be needed. This is however way too soon to call kill_anon_super(),
because get_sb_nodev() has to perform its own cleanup of the superblock
first (deactivate_super(), etc.). The correct time to call
kill_anon_super() is in the autofs_kill_sb() callback, which is called by
deactivate_super() at proper time, when the superblock is ready to be
killed.
I can see the same faulty codepath also in autofs4. This patch solves
issues in both filesystems in a same way - it postpones the
kill_anon_super() until the proper time is signalized by deactivate_super()
calling the kill_sb() callback.

pointer reference to a field (pipe) in the autofs superblock info structure
and second the lack of super block cleanup by the autofs and autofs4
modules.

kill_anon_super()
Make sure all dentries refs are released before calling kill_anon_super()
so that the assumption that generic_shutdown_super() can completely destroy
the dentry tree for there will be no external references holds true.
What was being done in the put_super() superblock op, is now done in the
kill_sb() filesystem op instead, prior to calling kill_anon_super().
The call to shrink_dcache_sb() is removed as it is redundant since
shrink_dcache_for_umount() will now be called after the cleanup routine.

When a filesystem decrements i_nlink to zero, it means that a write must be
performed in order to drop the inode from the filesystem.
We're shortly going to have keep filesystems from being remounted r/o between
the time that this i_nlink decrement and that write occurs.
So, add a little helper function to do the decrements. We'll tie into it in a
bit to note when i_nlink hits zero.

This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want
to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.
Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
values for i_blksize.

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.
This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.
The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.
(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.
However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.
[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups
The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs
used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions. But those
functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a
page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still
be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk.
We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it
is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking
helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability.
We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a
cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine. This
also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
