mm initialization on fork/exec is spread all over the place, which makes the code look inconsistent. We have mm_init(), which is supposed to init/nullify mm's internals, but it doesn't init all the fields it should: - on fork ->mmap,mm_rb,vmacache_seqnum,map_count,mm_cpumask,locked_vm are zeroed in dup_mmap(); - on fork ->pmd_huge_pte is zeroed in dup_mm(), immediately before calling mm_init(); - ->cpu_vm_mask_var ptr is initialized by mm_init_cpumask(), which is called before mm_init() on both fork and exec; - ->context is initialized by init_new_context(), which is called after mm_init() on both fork and exec; Let's consolidate all the initializations in mm_init() to make the code look cleaner.

Currently lookup for /proc/$PID first goes through spinlock and whole list of misc /proc entries only to confirm that, yes, /proc/42 can not possibly match random proc entry. List is is several dozens entries long (52 entries on my setup). None of this is necessary. Try to convert dentry name to integer first. If it works, it must be /proc/$PID. If it doesn't, it must be random proc entry. Based on patch from Al Viro. Signed-off-by:

* remove proc_create(NULL, ...) check, let it oops * warn about proc_create("", ...) and proc_create("very very long name", ...) proc code keeps length as u8, no 256+ name length possible * warn about proc_create("123", ...) /proc/$PID and /proc/misc namespaces are separate things, but dumb module might create funky a-la $PID entry. * remove post mortem strchr('/') check Triggering it implies either strchr() is buggy or memory corruption. It should be VFS check anyway. In reality, none of these checks will ever trigger, it is preparation for the next patch. Based on patch from Al Viro. Signed-off-by:

This patchset implements creation of sysfs groups and attributes with the purpose to show NILFS2 volume details, internal state of the driver and to manage internal state of NILFS2 driver. Sysfs is a virtual file system that exports information about devices and drivers from the kernel device model to user space, and is also used for configuration. NILFS2 is a complex file system that has segctor thread, GC thread, checkpoint/snapshot model and so on. Sysfs namespace provides native and easy way for: (1) getting info and statistics about volume state; (2) getting info and configuration of internal subsystems (segctor thread); (3) snapshots management. Suggested patchset provides basis for managing segctor thread behaviour and manipulation by snapshots. Currently, it informs only about segctor thread's internal parameters and about mounted snapshots. But sysfs interface can provide easy and simple way for deep management of segctor thread and snapshots. This patchset provides opportunity to manage interval of periodical update of superblock (in seconds). Default value is 10 seconds. Now a user can increase this value by means of nilfs2/<device>/superblock/sb_update_frequency attribute in the case of necessity. Also the patchset provides opportunity to get information easily about key volumes's parameters (free blocks, superblock write count, superblock update frequency, latest segment info, dirty data blocks count, count of clean segments, count of dirty segments and so on) in real time manner. Such information can be used in scripts for subtle management of filesystem. Implemented functionality creates such groups: (1) /sys/fs/nilfs2 - root group (2) /sys/fs/nilfs2/features - group contains attributes that describe NILFS file system driver features (3) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device> - group contains attributes that describe file system partition's details (4) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/superblock - group contains attributes that describe superblock's details (5) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/segctor - group contains attributes that describe segctor thread activity details (6) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/segments - group contains attributes that describe details about volume's segments (7) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/checkpoints - group contains attributes that describe details about volume's checkpoints (8) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/mounted_snapshots - group contains group for every mounted snapshot (9) /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device>/mounted_snapshots/<snapshot> - group contains details about mounted snapshot This patch (of 9): This patch adds code of creation /sys/fs/nilfs2 group and /sys/fs/nilfs2/features group. The features group contains attributes that describe NILFS file system driver features: (1) revision - show current revision of NILFS file system driver. There are two formats of timestamp output - seconds and human-readable format. Every showed timestamp has two sysfs files (time-<xxx> and time-<xxx>-secs). One sysfs file (time-<xxx>) shows time in human-readable format. Another sysfs file (time-<xxx>-secs) shows time in seconds. It was reported by Michael Semon that timestamp output in human-readable format should be changed from "2014-4-12 14:5:38" to "2014-04-12 14:05:38". Second version of the patch fixes this issue.

This patch loads, checks and only dump superblock if it's a valid one then brelse bh. (befs_dump_super_block uses disk_sb (bh->b_data) so it seems we need to call it before brelse(bh) but I don't know why befs_check_sb was called after brelse. Another thing I don't understand is why this problem appears now). Signed-off-by:
