iov_iter_get_pages(iter, pages, maxsize, &start) grabs references pinning the pages of up to maxsize of (contiguous) data from iter. Returns the amount of memory grabbed or -error. In case of success, the requested area begins at offset start in pages[0] and runs through pages[1], etc. Less than requested amount might be returned - either because the contiguous area in the beginning of iterator is smaller than requested, or because the kernel failed to pin that many pages. direct-io.c switched to using iov_iter_get_pages() Signed-off-by:

For now, just use the same thing we pass to ->direct_IO() - it's all iovec-based at the moment. Pass it explicitly to iov_iter_init() and account for kvec vs. iovec in there, by the same kludge NFS ->direct_IO() uses. Signed-off-by:

iov_iter-using variant of generic_file_aio_read(). Some callers converted. Note that it's still not quite there for use as ->read_iter() - we depend on having zero iter->iov_offset in O_DIRECT case. Fortunately, that's true for all converted callers (and for generic_file_aio_read() itself). Signed-off-by:

the thing is, we want to advance what's given to ->direct_IO() as we are forming the request; however, the callers care about the amount of data actually transferred, not the amount we tried to transfer. It's more convenient to allow ->direct_IO() instances do use iov_iter_advance() on the copy of iov_iter, leaving the actual advancing of the original to caller. Signed-off-by:

On 64-bit systems, O_LARGEFILE is automatically added to flags inside the open() syscall (also openat(), blkdev_open(), etc). Userspace therefore defines O_LARGEFILE to be 0 - you can use it, but it's a no-op. Everything should be O_LARGEFILE by default. But: when fanotify does create_fd() it uses dentry_open(), which skips all that. And userspace can't set O_LARGEFILE in fanotify_init() because it's defined to 0. So if fanotify gets an event regarding a large file, the read() will just fail with -EOVERFLOW. This patch adds O_LARGEFILE to fanotify_init()'s event_f_flags on 64-bit systems, using the same test as open()/openat()/etc. Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=696821 Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit 0bf1457f ("mm: vmscan: do not swap anon pages just because free+file is low") because it introduced a regression in mostly-anonymous workloads, where reclaim would become ineffective and trap every allocating task in direct reclaim. The problem is that there is a runaway feedback loop in the scan balance between file and anon, where the balance tips heavily towards a tiny thrashing file LRU and anonymous pages are no longer being looked at. The commit in question removed the safe guard that would detect such situations and respond with forced anonymous reclaim. This commit was part of a series to fix premature swapping in loads with relatively little cache, and while it made a small difference, the cure is obviously worse than the disease. Revert it.

autofs needs to be able to see private data dentry flags for its dentrys that are being created but not yet hashed and for its dentrys that have been rmdir()ed but not yet freed. It needs to do this so it can block processes in these states until a status has been returned to indicate the given operation is complete. It does this by keeping two lists, active and expring, of dentrys in this state and uses ->d_release() to keep them stable while it checks the reference count to determine if they should be used. But with the recent lockref changes dentrys being freed sometimes don't transition to a reference count of 0 before being freed so autofs can occassionally use a dentry that is invalid which can lead to a panic.

However, as Hugh Dickins notes, "it is truly surprising for a PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK (and probably any other PAGECACHE_TAG_*) to appear on an exceptional entry. I expect it comes down to an occasional race in RCU lookup of the radix_tree: lacking absolute synchronization, we might sometimes catch an exceptional entry, with the tag which really belongs with the unexceptional entry which was there an instant before." And indeed, not only is the tree walk lockless, the tags are also read in chunks, one radix tree node at a time. There is plenty of time for page reclaim to swoop in and replace a page that was already looked up as tagged with a shadow entry. Remove the BUG() and update the comment. While reviewing all other lookup sites for whether they properly deal with shadow entries of evicted pages, update all the comments and fix memcg file charge moving to not miss shmem/tmpfs swapcache pages.

The compaction freepage scanner implementation in isolate_freepages() starts by taking the current cc->free_pfn value as the first pfn. In a for loop, it scans from this first pfn to the end of the pageblock, and then subtracts pageblock_nr_pages from the first pfn to obtain the first pfn for the next for loop iteration. This means that when cc->free_pfn starts at offset X rather than being aligned on pageblock boundary, the scanner will start at offset X in all scanned pageblock, ignoring potentially many free pages. Currently this can happen when a) zone's end pfn is not pageblock aligned, or b) through zone->compact_cached_free_pfn with CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE enabled and a hole spanning the beginning of a pageblock This patch fixes the problem by aligning the initial pfn in isolate_freepages() to pageblock boundary. This also permits replacing the end-of-pageblock alignment within the for loop with a simple pageblock_nr_pages increment. Signed-off-by:

Currently, I am seeing the following when I `mount -t hugetlbfs /none /dev/hugetlbfs`, and then simply do a `ls /dev/hugetlbfs`.

Extract the check to a helper function, and use it in a few relevant places. This does make hugetlbfs not supported (not registered at all) in this environment.

Various filesystems don't bother checking for a NULL ACL in posix_acl_equiv_mode, and thus can dereference a NULL pointer when it gets passed one. This usually happens from the NFS server, as the ACL tools never pass a NULL ACL, but instead of one representing the mode bits. Instead of adding boilerplat to all filesystems put this check into one place, which will allow us to remove the check from other filesystems as well later on. Signed-off-by:

If freelist_idx_t is a byte, SLAB_OBJ_MAX_NUM should be 255 not 256, and likewise if freelist_idx_t is a short, then it should be 65535 not 65536. This was leading to all kinds of random crashes on sparc64 where PAGE_SIZE is 8192. One problem shown was that if spinlock debugging was enabled, we'd get deadlocks in copy_pte_range() or do_wp_page() with the same cpu already holding a lock it shouldn't hold, or the lock belonging to a completely unrelated process.
