 "This update fixes a warning in the new pagecache_isize_extended() and
  updates some related comments, another fix for zero-range
  misbehaviour, and an unforntuately large set of fixes for regressions
  in the bulkstat code.

  The bulkstat fixes are large but necessary.  I wouldn't normally push
  such a rework for a -rcX update, but right now xfsdump can silently
  create incomplete dumps on 3.17 and it's possible that even xfsrestore
  won't notice that the dumps were incomplete.  Hence we need to get
  this update into 3.17-stable kernels ASAP.

  In more detail, the refactoring work I committed in 3.17 has exposed a
  major hole in our QA coverage.  With both xfsdump (the major user of
  bulkstat) and xfsrestore silently ignoring missing files in the
  dump/restore process, incomplete dumps were going unnoticed if they
  were being triggered.  Many of the dump/restore filesets were so small
  that they didn't evenhave a chance of triggering the loop iteration
  bugs we introduced in 3.17, so we didn't exercise the code
  sufficiently, either.

  We have already taken steps to improve QA coverage in xfstests to
  avoid this happening again, and I've done a lot of manual verification
  of dump/restore on very large data sets (tens of millions of inodes)
  of the past week to verify this patch set results in bulkstat behaving
  the same way as it does on 3.16.

  Unfortunately, the fixes are not exactly simple - in tracking down the
  problem historic API warts were discovered (e.g xfsdump has been
  working around a 20 year old bug in the bulkstat API for the past 10
  years) and so that complicated the process of diagnosing and fixing
  the problems.  i.e. we had to fix bugs in the code as well as
  discover and re-introduce the userspace visible API bugs that we
  unwittingly "fixed" in 3.17 that xfsdump relied on to work correctly.

  Summary:

   - incorrect warnings about i_mutex locking in pagecache_isize_extended()
     and updates comments to match expected locking
   - another zero-range bug fix for stray file size updates
   - a bunch of fixes for regression in the bulkstat code introduced in
     3.17"

The ENABLE_DEV_COREDUMP option is misleading as it implies that
it gets the framework enabled, this isn't true it just allows it
to get enabled if a driver needs it.

Rename it to ALLOW_DEV_COREDUMP to better capture its semantics.

It's desirable for allnconfig and tinyconfig targets to result in the
least amount of code possible. DISABLE_DEV_COREDUMP exists as a way to
switch off DEV_COREDUMP regardless if any drivers select
WANT_DEV_COREDUMP.

This patch renames the option to ENABLE_DEV_COREDUMP and setting it to
'n' (as in allnconfig or tinyconfig) will effectively disable device
coredump.

      sysfs: driver core: Fix glue dir race condition by gdp_mutex · e4a60d13
      Yijing Wang authored 
      

There is a race condition when removing glue directory.
It can be reproduced in following test:

path 1: Add first child device
device_add()
    get_device_parent()
            /*find parent from glue_dirs.list*/
            list_for_each_entry(k, &dev->class->p->glue_dirs.list, entry)
                    if (k->parent == parent_kobj) {
                            kobj = kobject_get(k);
                            break;
                    }
            ....
            class_dir_create_and_add()

path2: Remove last child device under glue dir
device_del()
    cleanup_device_parent()
            cleanup_glue_dir()
                    kobject_put(glue_dir);

If path2 has been called cleanup_glue_dir(), but not
call kobject_put(glue_dir), the glue dir is still
in parent's kset list. Meanwhile, path1 find the glue
dir from the glue_dirs.list. Path2 may release glue dir
before path1 call kobject_get(). So kernel will report
the warning and bug_on.

This is a "classic" problem we have of a kref in a list
that can be found while the last instance could be removed
at the same time.

This patch reuse gdp_mutex to fix this race condition.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 3.4, but
the latest kernel still has this bug.

      MIPS: Fix build with binutils 2.24.51+ · 842dfc11
      Manuel Lauss authored 
      

Starting with version 2.24.51.20140728 MIPS binutils complain loudly
about mixing soft-float and hard-float object files, leading to this
build failure since GCC is invoked with "-msoft-float" on MIPS:

{standard input}: Warning: .gnu_attribute 4,3 requires `softfloat'
  LD      arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu-ld: Warning: arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
 uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/alchemy/common/prom.o),
 arch/mips/alchemy/common/sleeper.o uses -mhard-float

To fix this, we detect if GAS is new enough to support "-msoft-float" command
option, and if it does, we can let GCC pass it to GAS;  but then we also need
to sprinkle the files which make use of floating point registers with the
necessary ".set hardfloat" directives.

      xfs: track bulkstat progress by agino · 00275899
      Dave Chinner authored 
      

The bulkstat main loop progress is tracked by the "lastino"
variable, which is a full 64 bit inode. However, the loop actually
works on agno/agino pairs, and so there's a significant disconnect
between the rest of the loop and the main cursor. Convert this to
use the agino, and pass the agino into the chunk formatting function
and convert it too.

This gets rid of the inconsistency in the loop processing, and
finally makes it simple for us to skip inodes at any point in the
loop simply by incrementing the agino cursor.

      xfs: bulkstat error handling is broken · febe3cbe
      Dave Chinner authored 
      

The error propagation is a horror - xfs_bulkstat() returns
a rval variable which is only set if there are formatter errors. Any
sort of btree walk error or corruption will cause the bulkstat walk
to terminate but will not pass an error back to userspace. Worse
is the fact that formatter errors will also be ignored if any inodes
were correctly formatted into the user buffer.

Hence bulkstat can fail badly yet still report success to userspace.
This causes significant issues with xfsdump not dumping everything
in the filesystem yet reporting success. It's not until a restore
fails that there is any indication that the dump was bad and tha
bulkstat failed. This patch now triggers xfsdump to fail with
bulkstat errors rather than silently missing files in the dump.

This now causes bulkstat to fail when the lastino cookie does not
fall inside an existing inode chunk. The pre-3.17 code tolerated
that error by allowing the code to move to the next inode chunk
as the agino target is guaranteed to fall into the next btree
record.

With the fixes up to this point in the series, xfsdump now passes on
the troublesome filesystem image that exposes all these bugs.

      xfs: bulkstat chunk-formatter has issues · 2b831ac6
      Dave Chinner authored 
      

The loop construct has issues:
	- clustidx is completely unused, so remove it.
	- the loop tries to be smart by terminating when the
	  "freecount" tells it that all inodes are free. Just drop
	  it as in most cases we have to scan all inodes in the
	  chunk anyway.
	- move the "user buffer left" condition check to the only
	  point where we consume space int eh user buffer.
	- move the initialisation of agino out of the loop, leaving
	  just a simple loop control logic using the clusteridx.

Also, double handling of the user buffer variables leads to problems
tracking the current state - use the cursor variables directly
rather than keeping local copies and then having to update the
cursor before returning.

      xfs: bulkstat chunk formatting cursor is broken · bf4a5af2
      Dave Chinner authored 
      

The xfs_bulkstat_agichunk formatting cursor takes buffer values from
the main loop and passes them via the structure to the chunk
formatter, and the writes the changed values back into the main loop
local variables. Unfortunately, this complex dance is full of corner
cases that aren't handled correctly.

The biggest problem is that it is double handling the information in
both the main loop and the chunk formatting function, leading to
inconsistent updates and endless loops where progress is not made.

To fix this, push the struct xfs_bulkstat_agichunk outwards to be
the primary holder of user buffer information. this removes the
double handling in the main loop.

Also, pass the last inode processed by the chunk formatter as a
separate parameter as it purely an output variable and is not
related to the user buffer consumption cursor.

Finally, the chunk formatting code is not shared by anyone, so make
it local to xfs_itable.c.

The bulkstat code has several different ways of detecting the end of
an AG when doing a walk. They are not consistently detected, and the
code that checks for the end of AG conditions is not consistently
coded. Hence the are conditions where the walk code can get stuck in
an endless loop making no progress and not triggering any
termination conditions.

Convert all the "tmp/i" status return codes from btree operations
to a common name (stat) and apply end-of-ag detection to these
operations consistently.
