Al Viro e7d6ef9790 fix idiotic braino in d_alloc_parallel()
Check for d_unhashed() while searching in in-lookup hash was absolutely
wrong.  Worse, it masked a deadlock on dget() done under bitlock that
nests inside ->d_lock.  Thanks to J. R. Okajima for spotting it.

Al Viro ba65dc5ef1 much milder d_walk() race
d_walk() relies upon the tree not getting rearranged under it without
rename_lock being touched.  And we do grab rename_lock around the
places that change the tree topology.  Unfortunately, branch reordering
is just as bad from d_walk() POV and we have two places that do it
without touching rename_lock - one in handling of cursors (for ramfs-style
directories) and another in autofs.  autofs one is a separate story; this
commit deals with the cursors.
	* mark cursor dentries explicitly at allocation time
	* make __dentry_kill() leave ->d_child.next pointing to the next
non-cursor sibling, making sure that it won't be moved around unnoticed
before the parent is relocked on ascend-to-parent path in d_walk().
	* make d_walk() skip cursors explicitly; strictly speaking it's
not necessary (all callbacks we pass to d_walk() are no-ops on cursors),
but it makes analysis easier.

Al Viro 3d56c25e3b fix d_walk()/non-delayed __d_free() race
Ascend-to-parent logics in d_walk() depends on all encountered child
dentries not getting freed without an RCU delay.  Unfortunately, in
quite a few cases it is not true, with hard-to-hit oopsable race as
the result.

Fortunately, the fix is simiple; right now the rule is "if it ever
been hashed, freeing must be delayed" and changing it to "if it
ever had a parent, freeing must be delayed" closes that hole and
covers all cases the old rule used to cover.  Moreover, pipes and
sockets remain _not_ covered, so we do not introduce RCU delay in
the cases which are the reason for having that delay conditional
in the first place.

Linus Torvalds 7e0fb73c52 Merge branch 'hash' of git://ftp.sciencehorizons.net/linux
Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
 "This series does several related things:

   - Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.

     (Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)

   - Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the
     above.

   - Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms.  Two
     32-bit multiplies will do well enough.

   - Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.

     This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6ca ("Minimal
     fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")

     The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
     32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
     multipliers.

     The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
     Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added.  Those
     patches are last in the series.

   - Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.

     The patch in commit 0fed3ac866 ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
     CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
     Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
     faster and better.  (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
     in the literature I could find.  Comments welcome!)

   - Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX().  This
     would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.

   - Sort out partial_name_hash().

     The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
     it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
     contributes nothing to the result.  And some callers do odd things:

      - fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
      - fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes

   - Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
     rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1.  This would simplify users other
     than full_name_hash"

  Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1.  (I
  learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)

  On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a
  standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze
  maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never
  omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from
  the H8/300 world"

George Spelvin fcfd2fbf22 fs/namei.c: Add hashlen_string() function
We'd like to make more use of the highly-optimized dcache hash functions
throughout the kernel, rather than have every subsystem create its own,
and a function that hashes basic null-terminated strings is required
for that.

(The name is to emphasize that it returns both hash and length.)

It's actually useful in the dcache itself, specifically d_alloc_name().
Other uses in the next patch.

full_name_hash() is also tweaked to make it more generally useful:
1) Take a "char *" rather than "unsigned char *" argument, to
   be consistent with hash_name().
2) Handle zero-length inputs.  If we want more callers, we don't want
   to make them worry about corner cases.

variants of rwsem primitives appear, that'll be dealt with.

Al Viro d9171b9345 parallel lookups machinery, part 4 (and last)
If we *do* run into an in-lookup match, we need to wait for it to
cease being in-lookup.  Fortunately, we do have unused space in
in-lookup dentries - d_lru is never looked at until it stops being
in-lookup.

So we can stash a pointer to wait_queue_head from stack frame of
the caller of ->lookup().  Some precautions are needed while
waiting, but it's not that hard - we do hold a reference to dentry
we are waiting for, so it can't go away.  If it's found to be
in-lookup the wait_queue_head is still alive and will remain so
at least while ->d_lock is held.  Moreover, the condition we
are waiting for becomes true at the same point where everything
on that wq gets woken up, so we can just add ourselves to the
queue once.

d_alloc_parallel() gets a pointer to wait_queue_head_t from its
caller; lookup_slow() adjusted, d_add_ci() taught to use
d_alloc_parallel() if the dentry passed to it happens to be
in-lookup one (i.e. if it's been called from the parallel lookup).

That's pretty much it - all that remains is to switch ->i_mutex
to rwsem and have lookup_slow() take it shared.

Al Viro 94bdd655ca parallel lookups machinery, part 3
We will need to be able to check if there is an in-lookup
dentry with matching parent/name.  Right now it's impossible,
but as soon as start locking directories shared such beasts
will appear.

Add a secondary hash for locating those.  Hash chains go through
the same space where d_alias will be once it's not in-lookup anymore.
Search is done under the same bitlock we use for modifications -
with the primary hash we can rely on d_rehash() into the wrong
chain being the worst that could happen, but here the pointers are
buggered once it's removed from the chain.  On the other hand,
the chains are not going to be long and normally we'll end up
adding to the chain anyway.  That allows us to avoid bothering with
->d_lock when doing the comparisons - everything is stable until
removed from chain.

New helper: d_alloc_parallel().  Right now it allocates, verifies
that no hashed and in-lookup matches exist and adds to in-lookup
hash.

Returns ERR_PTR() for error, hashed match (in the unlikely case it's
been found) or new dentry.  In-lookup matches trigger BUG() for
now; that will change in the next commit when we introduce waiting
for ongoing lookup to finish.  Note that in-lookup matches won't be
possible until we actually go for shared locking.

lookup_slow() switched to use of d_alloc_parallel().

Again, these commits are separated only for making it easier to
review.  All this machinery will start doing something useful only
when we go for shared locking; it's just that the combination is
too large for my taste.

Al Viro 84e710da2a parallel lookups machinery, part 2
We'll need to verify that there's neither a hashed nor in-lookup
dentry with desired parent/name before adding to in-lookup set.

One possible solution would be to hold the parent's ->d_lock through
both checks, but while the in-lookup set is relatively small at any
time, dcache is not.  And holding the parent's ->d_lock through
something like __d_lookup_rcu() would suck too badly.

So we leave the parent's ->d_lock alone, which means that we watch
out for the following scenario:
	* we verify that there's no hashed match
	* existing in-lookup match gets hashed by another process
	* we verify that there's no in-lookup matches and decide
that everything's fine.

Solution: per-directory kinda-sorta seqlock, bumped around the times
we hash something that used to be in-lookup or move (and hash)
something in place of in-lookup.  Then the above would turn into
	* read the counter
	* do dcache lookup
	* if no matches found, check for in-lookup matches
	* if there had been none of those either, check if the
counter has changed; repeat if it has.

The "kinda-sorta" part is due to the fact that we don't have much spare
space in inode.  There is a spare word (shared with i_bdev/i_cdev/i_pipe),
so the counter part is not a problem, but spinlock is a different story.

We could use the parent's ->d_lock, and it would be less painful in
terms of contention, for __d_add() it would be rather inconvenient to
grab; we could do that (using lock_parent()), but...

Fortunately, we can get serialization on the counter itself, and it
might be a good idea in general; we can use cmpxchg() in a loop to
get from even to odd and smp_store_release() from odd to even.

This commit adds the counter and updating logics; the readers will be
added in the next commit.

Al Viro 85c7f81041 beginning of transition to parallel lookups - marking in-lookup dentries
marked as such when (would be) parallel lookup is about to pass them
to actual ->lookup(); unmarked when
	* __d_add() is about to make it hashed, positive or not.
	* __d_move() (from d_splice_alias(), directly or via
__d_unalias()) puts a preexisting dentry in its place
	* in caller of ->lookup() if it has escaped all of the
above.  Bug (WARN_ON, actually) if it reaches the final dput()
or d_instantiate() while still marked such.

As the result, we are guaranteed that for as long as the flag is
set, dentry will
	* remain negative unhashed with positive refcount
	* never have its ->d_alias looked at
	* never have its ->d_lru looked at
	* never have its ->d_parent and ->d_name changed

Right now we have at most one such for any given parent directory.
With parallel lookups that restriction will weaken to
	* only exist when parent is locked shared
	* at most one with given (parent,name) pair (comparison of
names is according to ->d_compare())
	* only exist when there's no hashed dentry with the same
(parent,name)

Transition will take the next several commits; unfortunately, we'll
only be able to switch to rwsem at the end of this series.  The
reason for not making it a single patch is to simplify review.

New primitives: d_in_lookup() (a predicate checking if dentry is in
the in-lookup state) and d_lookup_done() (tells the system that
we are done with lookup and if it's still marked as in-lookup, it
should cease to be such).

Miklos Szeredi d101a12595 fs: add file_dentry()
This series fixes bugs in nfs and ext4 due to 4bacc9c923 ("overlayfs:
Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay").

Regular files opened on overlayfs will result in the file being opened on
the underlying filesystem, while f_path points to the overlayfs
mount/dentry.

This confuses filesystems which get the dentry from struct file and assume
it's theirs.

Add a new helper, file_dentry() [*], to get the filesystem's own dentry
from the file.  This checks file->f_path.dentry->d_flags against
DCACHE_OP_REAL, and returns file->f_path.dentry if DCACHE_OP_REAL is not
set (this is the common, non-overlayfs case).

In the uncommon case it will call into overlayfs's ->d_real() to get the
underlying dentry, matching file_inode(file).

The reason we need to check against the inode is that if the file is copied
up while being open, d_real() would return the upper dentry, while the open
file comes from the lower dentry.

[*] If possible, it's better simply to use file_inode() instead.

 - files_struct
 - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
 - dentry and external_name
 - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
   most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.

The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds.  Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).

  inode_is_locked()/inode_lock_nested().  To quote Linus back then:

Al Viro 6b2553918d replace ->follow_link() with new method that could stay in RCU mode

are:
	* inode and dentry are passed separately
	* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
	* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.

It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted.  Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode.  That'll change
in the next commits.

Eric W. Biederman a03e283bf5 dcache: Reduce the scope of i_lock in d_splice_alias
i_lock is only needed until __d_find_any_alias calls dget on the alias
dentry.  After that the reference to new ensures that dentry_kill and
d_delete will not remove the inode from the dentry, and remove the
dentry from the inode->d_entry list.

The inode i_lock came to be held over the the __d_move calls in
d_splice_alias through a series of introduction of locks with
increasing smaller scope.  First it was the dcache_lock, then
it was the dcache_inode_lock, and finally inode->i_lock.

Furthermore inode->i_lock is not held over any other calls
to d_move or __d_move so it can not provide any meaningful
rename protection.

Eric W. Biederman cde93be45a dcache: Handle escaped paths in prepend_path
A rename can result in a dentry that by walking up d_parent
will never reach it's mnt_root.  For lack of a better term
I call this an escaped path.

prepend_path is called by four different functions __d_path,
d_absolute_path, d_path, and getcwd.

__d_path only wants to see paths are connected to the root it passes
in.  So __d_path needs prepend_path to return an error.

d_absolute_path similarly wants to see paths that are connected to
some root.  Escaped paths are not connected to any mnt_root so
d_absolute_path needs prepend_path to return an error greater
than 1.  So escaped paths will be treated like paths on lazily
unmounted mounts.

getcwd needs to prepend "(unreachable)" so getcwd also needs
prepend_path to return an error.

d_path is the interesting hold out.  d_path just wants to print
something, and does not care about the weird cases.  Which raises
the question what should be printed?

Given that <escaped_path>/<anything> should result in -ENOENT I
believe it is desirable for escaped paths to be printed as empty
paths.  As there are not really any meaninful path components when
considered from the perspective of a mount tree.

So tweak prepend_path to return an empty path with an new error
code of 3 when it encounters an escaped path.

Mel Gorman 4248b0da46 fs, file table: reinit files_stat.max_files after deferred memory initialisation
Dave Hansen reported the following;

	My laptop has been behaving strangely with 4.2-rc2.  Once I log
	in to my X session, I start getting all kinds of strange errors
	from applications and see this in my dmesg:

        	VFS: file-max limit 8192 reached

The problem is that the file-max is calculated before memory is fully
initialised and miscalculates how much memory the kernel is using.  This
patch recalculates file-max after deferred memory initialisation.  Note
that using memory hotplug infrastructure would not have avoided this
problem as the value is not recalculated after memory hot-add.

4.1:             files_stat.max_files = 6582781
4.2-rc2:         files_stat.max_files = 8192
4.2-rc2 patched: files_stat.max_files = 6562467

Small differences with the patch applied and 4.1 but not enough to matter.

Al Viro 75a6f82a0d freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed
Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have
the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and
has no remaining links, of course).  However, there's one case where that
does *not* happen.  Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache,
then unlink() and close().

	In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry
is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from
dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal.  In this case, though, we end
up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and
regular one (used by unlink()).  The latter will have its reference to inode
dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it
is on the ->s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure
will finally do it in.  As the result, we have the final iput() delayed
indefinitely.  It's trivial to reproduce -

void flush_dcache(void)
{
        system("mount -o remount,rw /");
}

static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024];

main()
{
        int fd;
        union {
                struct file_handle f;
                char buf[MAX_HANDLE_SZ];
        } x;
        int m;

        x.f.handle_bytes = sizeof(x);
        chdir("/root");
        mkdir("foo", 0700);
        fd = open("foo/bar", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0600);
        close(fd);
        name_to_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, "foo/bar", &x.f, &m, 0);
        flush_dcache();
        fd = open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &x.f, O_RDWR);
        unlink("foo/bar");
        write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
        system("df .");			/* 20Mb eaten */
        close(fd);
        system("df .");			/* should've freed those 20Mb */
        flush_dcache();
        system("df .");			/* should be the same as #2 */
}

will spit out something like
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 283282     21692  93% /
- inode gets freed only when dentry is finally evicted (here we trigger
than by remount; normally it would've happened in response to memory
pressure hell knows when).

Linus Torvalds 0cbee99269 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
  that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
  permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
  if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.

  Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
  be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
  proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
  sysfs.  Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.

  There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement.  Only filesystems
  mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
  the test for empty directories was insufficient.  So in my tree
  directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
  created specially.  Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
  directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
  shows that the directory is empty.  Special creation of directories
  for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
  it's purpose.  I asked container developers from the various container
  projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
  points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.

  This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
  mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
  proc and sysfs.  I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
  unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
  proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
  on the previous mount of proc and sysfs.  So for now only the atime,
  read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
  consistent are enforced.  Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
  attributes remains for another time.

  This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
  descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed.  Recently readlink of
  /proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
  meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
  converted) and is not now actively wrong.

  There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
  I will mention briefly.

  It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
  At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
  be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem.  With user
  namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
  allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
  to outside of the bind mount.  This is challenging to fix and doubly
  so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
  performance part of pathname resolution.

  As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
  developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
  files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
  in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
  such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
  they are recognized"

The warning message in prepend_path is unclear and outdated.  It was
added as a warning that the mechanism for generating names of pseudo

making it unclear what to do with it.

Remove the warning.  The transition it was added to warn about is long
over, and I added code several years ago which in rare cases causes
the warning to fire on legitimate code, and the warning is now firing
and scaring people for no good reason.

David Howells 4bacc9c923 overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay
Make file->f_path always point to the overlay dentry so that the path in
/proc/pid/fd is correct and to ensure that label-based LSMs have access to the
overlay as well as the underlay (path-based LSMs probably don't need it).

Using my union testsuite to set things up, before the patch I see:

	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# bash 5</mnt/a/foo107
	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# ls -l /proc/$$/fd/
	...
	lr-x------. 1 root root 64 Jun  5 14:38 5 -> /a/foo107
	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat /mnt/a/foo107
	...
	Device: 23h/35d Inode: 13381       Links: 1
	...
	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat -L /proc/$$/fd/5
	...
	Device: 23h/35d Inode: 13381       Links: 1
	...

After the patch:

	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# bash 5</mnt/a/foo107
	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# ls -l /proc/$$/fd/
	...
	lr-x------. 1 root root 64 Jun  5 14:22 5 -> /mnt/a/foo107
	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat /mnt/a/foo107
	...
	Device: 23h/35d Inode: 40346       Links: 1
	...
	[root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat -L /proc/$$/fd/5
	...
	Device: 23h/35d Inode: 40346       Links: 1
	...

Note the change in where /proc/$$/fd/5 points to in the ls command.  It was
pointing to /a/foo107 (which doesn't exist) and now points to /mnt/a/foo107
(which is correct).

The inode accessed, however, is the lower layer.  The union layer is on device
25h/37d and the upper layer on 24h/36d.

This check is especially problematic if a dentry can have its type field set
to something other than DENTRY_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL (as in
unionmount).

What we really need to do is stick a write barrier between setting d_inode and
setting d_flags and a read barrier between reading d_flags and reading

J. Bruce Fields 3d330dc175 dcache: return -ESTALE not -EBUSY on distributed fs race
On a distributed filesystem it's possible for lookup to discover that a
directory it just found is already cached elsewhere in the directory
heirarchy.  The dcache won't let us keep the directory in both places,
so we have to move the dentry to the new location from the place we
previously had it cached.

If the parent has changed, then this requires all the same locks as we'd
need to do a cross-directory rename.  But we're already in lookup
holding one parent's i_mutex, so it's too late to acquire those locks in
the right order.

The (unreliable) solution in __d_unalias is to trylock() the required
locks and return -EBUSY if it fails.

I see no particular reason for returning -EBUSY, and -ESTALE is already
the result of some other lookup races on NFS.  I think -ESTALE is the
more helpful error return.  It also allows us to take advantage of the
logic Jeff Layton added in c6a9428401 "vfs: fix renameat to retry on
ESTALE errors" and ancestors, which hopefully resolves some of these
errors before they're returned to userspace.

I can reproduce these cases using NFS with:

	ssh root@$client '
		mount -olookupcache=pos '$server':'$export' /mnt/
		mkdir /mnt/TO
		mkdir /mnt/DIR
		touch /mnt/DIR/test.txt
		while true; do
			strace -e open cat /mnt/DIR/test.txt 2>&1 | grep EBUSY
		done
	'
	ssh root@$server '
		while true; do
			mv $export/DIR $export/TO/DIR
			mv $export/TO/DIR $export/DIR
		done
	'

It also helps to add some other concurrent use of the directory on the
client (e.g., "ls /mnt/TO").  And you can replace the server-side mv's
by client-side mv's that are repeatedly killed.  (If the client is
interrupted while waiting for the RENAME response then it's left with a
dentry that has to go under one parent or the other, but it doesn't yet
know which.)

Andrey Ryabinin df4c0e36f1 fs: dcache: manually unpoison dname after allocation to shut up kasan's reports
We need to manually unpoison rounded up allocation size for dname to avoid
kasan's reports in dentry_string_cmp().  When CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS=y
dentry_string_cmp may access few bytes beyound requested in kmalloc()
size.

dentry_string_cmp() relates on that fact that dentry allocated using
kmalloc and kmalloc internally round up allocation size.  So this is not a
bug, but this makes kasan to complain about such accesses.  To avoid such
reports we mark rounded up allocation size in shadow as accessible.

Vladimir Davydov 3f97b16320 list_lru: add helpers to isolate items
Currently, the isolate callback passed to the list_lru_walk family of
functions is supposed to just delete an item from the list upon returning
LRU_REMOVED or LRU_REMOVED_RETRY, while nr_items counter is fixed by
__list_lru_walk_one after the callback returns.  Since the callback is
allowed to drop the lock after removing an item (it has to return
LRU_REMOVED_RETRY then), the nr_items can be less than the actual number
of elements on the list even if we check them under the lock.  This makes
it difficult to move items from one list_lru_one to another, which is
required for per-memcg list_lru reparenting - we can't just splice the
lists, we have to move entries one by one.

This patch therefore introduces helpers that must be used by callback
functions to isolate items instead of raw list_del/list_move.  These are
list_lru_isolate and list_lru_isolate_move.  They not only remove the
entry from the list, but also fix the nr_items counter, making sure
nr_items always reflects the actual number of elements on the list if
checked under the appropriate lock.

Vladimir Davydov 503c358cf1 list_lru: introduce list_lru_shrink_{count,walk}
Kmem accounting of memcg is unusable now, because it lacks slab shrinker
support.  That means when we hit the limit we will get ENOMEM w/o any
chance to recover.  What we should do then is to call shrink_slab, which
would reclaim old inode/dentry caches from this cgroup.  This is what
this patch set is intended to do.

Basically, it does two things.  First, it introduces the notion of
per-memcg slab shrinker.  A shrinker that wants to reclaim objects per
cgroup should mark itself as SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE.  Then it will be
passed the memory cgroup to scan from in shrink_control->memcg.  For
such shrinkers shrink_slab iterates over the whole cgroup subtree under
the target cgroup and calls the shrinker for each kmem-active memory
cgroup.

Secondly, this patch set makes the list_lru structure per-memcg.  It's
done transparently to list_lru users - everything they have to do is to
tell list_lru_init that they want memcg-aware list_lru.  Then the
list_lru will automatically distribute objects among per-memcg lists
basing on which cgroup the object is accounted to.  This way to make FS
shrinkers (icache, dcache) memcg-aware we only need to make them use
memcg-aware list_lru, and this is what this patch set does.

As before, this patch set only enables per-memcg kmem reclaim when the
pressure goes from memory.limit, not from memory.kmem.limit.  Handling
memory.kmem.limit is going to be tricky due to GFP_NOFS allocations, and
it is still unclear whether we will have this knob in the unified
hierarchy.

This patch (of 9):

NUMA aware slab shrinkers use the list_lru structure to distribute
objects coming from different NUMA nodes to different lists.  Whenever
such a shrinker needs to count or scan objects from a particular node,
it issues commands like this:

        count = list_lru_count_node(lru, sc->nid);
        freed = list_lru_walk_node(lru, sc->nid, isolate_func,
                                   isolate_arg, &sc->nr_to_scan);

where sc is an instance of the shrink_control structure passed to it
from vmscan.

To simplify this, let's add special list_lru functions to be used by
shrinkers, list_lru_shrink_count() and list_lru_shrink_walk(), which
consolidate the nid and nr_to_scan arguments in the shrink_control
structure.

This will also allow us to avoid patching shrinkers that use list_lru
when we make shrink_slab() per-memcg - all we will have to do is extend
the shrink_control structure to include the target memcg and make
list_lru_shrink_{count,walk} handle this appropriately.

Yan, Zheng 4a7795d35e vfs: fix reference leak in d_prune_aliases()
In "d_prune_alias(): just lock the parent and call __dentry_kill()" the old
dget + d_drop + dput has been replaced with lock_parent + __dentry_kill;
unfortunately, dput() does more than just killing dentry - it also drops the
reference to parent.  New variant leaks that reference and needs dput(parent)
after killing the child off.

Mikulas Patocka 08d4f77222 dcache: fix kmemcheck warning in switch_names
This patch fixes kmemcheck warning in switch_names. The function
switch_names swaps inline names of two dentries. It swaps full arrays
d_iname, no matter how many bytes are really used by the strings. Reading
data beyond string ends results in kmemcheck warning.

We fix the bug by marking both arrays as fully initialized.
