2012-07-22hfsplus: get rid of write_superArtem Bityutskiy
This patch makes hfsplus stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method along with the 's_dirt' superblock flag, because they are on their way out. The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and writes out all dirty superblocks using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every 5 seconds, even if there are no diry superblocks, or there are no client file-systems which would need this (e.g., btrfs does not use '->write_super()'). So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super()' VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread. Tested using fsstress from the LTP project. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-22hfsplus: remove useless checkArtem Bityutskiy
This check is useless because we always have 'sb->s_fs_info' to be non-NULL. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-07-22aio: now fput() is OK from interrupt context; get rid of manual delayed __fput()Al Viro
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-22switch fput to task_work_addAl Viro
... and schedule_work() for interrupt/kernel_thread callers (and yes, now it *is* OK to call from interrupt). We are guaranteed that __fput() will be done before we return to userland (or exit). Note that for fput() from a kernel thread we get an async behaviour; it's almost always OK, but sometimes you might need to have __fput() completed before you do anything else. There are two mechanisms for that - a general barrier (flush_delayed_fput()) and explicit __fput_sync(). Both should be used with care (as was the case for fput() from kernel threads all along). See comments in fs/file_table.c for details. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-22use __lookup_hash() in kern_path_parent()Al Viro
No need to bother with lookup_one_len() here - it's an overkill Signed-off-by Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14VFS: Split inode_permission()David Howells
Split inode_permission() into inode- and superblock-dependent parts. This is aimed at unionmounts where the superblock from the upper layer has to be checked rather than the superblock from the lower layer as the upper layer may be writable, thus allowing an unwritable file from the lower layer to be copied up and modified.

2012-07-14VFS: Pass mount flags to sget()David Howells
Pass mount flags to sget() so that it can use them in initialising a new superblock before the set function is called. They could also be passed to the compare function. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-07-14VFS: Make clone_mnt()/copy_tree()/collect_mounts() return errorsDavid Howells
copy_tree() can theoretically fail in a case other than ENOMEM, but always returns NULL which is interpreted by callers as -ENOMEM. Change it to return an explicit error. Also change clone_mnt() for consistency and because union mounts will add new error cases. Thanks to Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de> for a bug fix.

2012-07-14do_dentry_open(): close the race with mark_files_ro() in failure exitAl Viro
we want to take it out of mark_files_ro() reach *before* we start checking if we ought to drop write access. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-07-14fs: add nd_jump_linkChristoph Hellwig
Add a helper that abstracts out the jump to an already parsed struct path from ->follow_link operation from procfs. Not only does this clean up the code by moving the two sides of this game into a single helper, but it also prepares for making struct nameidata private to namei.c Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14fs: move path_put on failure out of ->follow_linkChristoph Hellwig
Currently the non-nd_set_link based versions of ->follow_link are expected to do a path_put(&nd->path) on failure. This calling convention is unexpected, undocumented and doesn't match what the nd_set_link-based instances do. Move the path_put out of the only non-nd_set_link based ->follow_link instance into the caller. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

same as for nfs et.al. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14sysfs: switch to ->s_d_op and ->d_release()Al Viro
a) ->d_iput() is wrong here - what we do to inode is completely usual, it's dentry->d_fsdata that we want to drop. Just use ->d_release(). b) switch to ->s_d_op - no need to play with d_set_d_op() Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14get rid of kern_path_parent()Al Viro
all callers want the same thing, actually - a kinda-sorta analog of kern_path_create(). I.e. they want parent vfsmount/dentry (with ->i_mutex held, to make sure the child dentry is still their child) + the child dentry. Signed-off-by Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14VFS: Fix the banner comment on lookup_open()David Howells
Since commit 197e37d9, the banner comment on lookup_open() no longer matches what the function returns. It used to return a struct file pointer or NULL and now it returns an integer and is passed the struct file pointer it is to use amongst its arguments. Update the comment to reflect this. Also add a banner comment to atomic_open(). Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14don't pass nameidata * to vfs_create()Al Viro
all we want is a boolean flag, same as the method gets now Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14don't pass nameidata to ->create()Al Viro
boolean "does it have to be exclusive?" flag is passed instead; Local filesystem should just ignore it - the object is guaranteed not to be there yet. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-07-14stop passing nameidata to ->lookup()Al Viro
Just the flags; only NFS cares even about that, but there are legitimate uses for such argument. And getting rid of that completely would require splitting ->lookup() into a couple of methods (at least), so let's leave that alone for now... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-14fs/namei.c: don't pass namedata to lookup_dcache()Al Viro

2012-07-14kill struct opendataAl Viro
Just pass struct file *. Methods are happier that way... There's no need to return struct file * from finish_open() now, so let it return int. Next: saner prototypes for parts in namei.c Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Change of calling conventions: old new NULL 1 file 0 ERR_PTR(-ve) -ve Caller *knows* that struct file *; no need to return it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
