J. Bruce Fields b21996e36c locks: break delegations on unlink
We need to break delegations on any operation that changes the set of
links pointing to an inode.  Start with unlink.

Such operations also hold the i_mutex on a parent directory.  Breaking a
delegation may require waiting for a timeout (by default 90 seconds) in
the case of a unresponsive NFS client.  To avoid blocking all directory
operations, we therefore drop locks before waiting for the delegation.
The logic then looks like:

	acquire locks
	...
	test for delegation; if found:
		take reference on inode
		release locks
		wait for delegation break
		drop reference on inode
		retry

It is possible this could never terminate.  (Even if we take precautions
to prevent another delegation being acquired on the same inode, we could
get a different inode on each retry.)  But this seems very unlikely.

The initial test for a delegation happens after the lock on the target
inode is acquired, but the directory inode may have been acquired
further up the call stack.  We therefore add a "struct inode **"
argument to any intervening functions, which we use to pass the inode
back up to the caller in the case it needs a delegation synchronously
broken.

David Howells 94d30ae90a FS-Cache: Provide the ability to enable/disable cookies
Provide the ability to enable and disable fscache cookies.  A disabled cookie
will reject or ignore further requests to:

	Acquire a child cookie
	Invalidate and update backing objects
	Check the consistency of a backing object
	Allocate storage for backing page
	Read backing pages
	Write to backing pages

but still allows:

	Checks/waits on the completion of already in-progress objects
	Uncaching of pages
	Relinquishment of cookies

Two new operations are provided:

 (1) Disable a cookie:

	void fscache_disable_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				    bool invalidate);

     If the cookie is not already disabled, this locks the cookie against other
     dis/enablement ops, marks the cookie as being disabled, discards or
     invalidates any backing objects and waits for cessation of activity on any
     associated object.

     This is a wrapper around a chunk split out of fscache_relinquish_cookie(),
     but it reinitialises the cookie such that it can be reenabled.

     All possible failures are handled internally.  The caller should consider
     calling fscache_uncache_all_inode_pages() afterwards to make sure all page
     markings are cleared up.

 (2) Enable a cookie:

	void fscache_enable_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
				   bool (*can_enable)(void *data),
				   void *data)

     If the cookie is not already enabled, this locks the cookie against other
     dis/enablement ops, invokes can_enable() and, if the cookie is not an
     index cookie, will begin the procedure of acquiring backing objects.

     The optional can_enable() function is passed the data argument and returns
     a ruling as to whether or not enablement should actually be permitted to
     begin.

     All possible failures are handled internally.  The cookie will only be
     marked as enabled if provisional backing objects are allocated.

A later patch will introduce these to NFS.  Cookie enablement during nfs_open()
is then contingent on i_writecount <= 0.  can_enable() checks for a race
between open(O_RDONLY) and open(O_WRONLY/O_RDWR).  This simplifies NFS's cookie
handling and allows us to get rid of open(O_RDONLY) accidentally introducing
caching to an inode that's open for writing already.

One operation has its API modified:

 (3) Acquire a cookie.

	struct fscache_cookie *fscache_acquire_cookie(
		struct fscache_cookie *parent,
		const struct fscache_cookie_def *def,
		void *netfs_data,
		bool enable);

     This now has an additional argument that indicates whether the requested
     cookie should be enabled by default.  It doesn't need the can_enable()
     function because the caller must prevent multiple calls for the same netfs
     object and it doesn't need to take the enablement lock because no one else
     can get at the cookie before this returns.

David Howells 509bf24d18 CacheFiles: Don't try to dump the index key if the cookie has been cleared
Don't try to dump the index key that distinguishes an object if netfs
data in the cookie the object refers to has been cleared (ie.  the
cookie has passed most of the way through
__fscache_relinquish_cookie()).

Since the netfs holds the index key, we can't get at it once the ->def
and ->netfs_data pointers have been cleared - and a NULL pointer
exception will ensue, usually just after a:

	CacheFiles: Error: Unexpected object collision

error is reported.

Josh Boyer 607566aecc CacheFiles: Fix memory leak in cachefiles_check_auxdata error paths
In cachefiles_check_auxdata(), we allocate auxbuf but fail to free it if
we determine there's an error or that the data is stale.

Further, assigning the output of vfs_getxattr() to auxbuf->len gives
problems with checking for errors as auxbuf->len is a u16.  We don't
actually need to set auxbuf->len, so keep the length in a variable for
now.  We shouldn't need to check the upper limit of the buffer as an
overflow there should be indicated by -ERANGE.

While we're at it, fscache_check_aux() returns an enum value, not an
int, so assign it to an appropriately typed variable rather than to ret.

Mel Gorman a0b8cab3b9 mm: remove lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add and remove parts of pagevec API
Now that the LRU to add a page to is decided at LRU-add time, remove the
misleading lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add.  A consequence of this
is that the pagevec_lru_add_file, pagevec_lru_add_anon and similar
helpers are misleading as the caller no longer has direct control over
what LRU the page is added to.  Unused helpers are removed by this patch
and existing users of pagevec_lru_add_file() are converted to use
lru_cache_add_file() directly and use the per-cpu pagevecs instead of
creating their own pagevec.

David Howells 1362729b16 FS-Cache: Simplify cookie retention for fscache_objects, fixing oops
Simplify the way fscache cache objects retain their cookie.  The way I
implemented the cookie storage handling made synchronisation a pain (ie. the
object state machine can't rely on the cookie actually still being there).

Instead of the the object being detached from the cookie and the cookie being
freed in __fscache_relinquish_cookie(), we defer both operations:

 (*) The detachment of the object from the list in the cookie now takes place
     in fscache_drop_object() and is thus governed by the object state machine
     (fscache_detach_from_cookie() has been removed).

 (*) The release of the cookie is now in fscache_object_destroy() - which is
     called by the cache backend just before it frees the object.

This means that the fscache_cookie struct is now available to the cache all the
way through from ->alloc_object() to ->drop_object() and ->put_object() -
meaning that it's no longer necessary to take object->lock to guarantee access.

However, __fscache_relinquish_cookie() doesn't wait for the object to go all
the way through to destruction before letting the netfs proceed.  That would
massively slow down the netfs.  Since __fscache_relinquish_cookie() leaves the
cookie around, in must therefore break all attachments to the netfs - which
includes ->def, ->netfs_data and any outstanding page read/writes.

To handle this, struct fscache_cookie now has an n_active counter:

 (1) This starts off initialised to 1.

 (2) Any time the cache needs to get at the netfs data, it calls
     fscache_use_cookie() to increment it - if it is not zero.  If it was zero,
     then access is not permitted.

 (3) When the cache has finished with the data, it calls fscache_unuse_cookie()
     to decrement it.  This does a wake-up on it if it reaches 0.

 (4) __fscache_relinquish_cookie() decrements n_active and then waits for it to
     reach 0.  The initialisation to 1 in step (1) ensures that we only get
     wake ups when we're trying to get rid of the cookie.

This leaves __fscache_relinquish_cookie() a lot simpler.


***
This fixes a problem in the current code whereby if fscache_invalidate() is
followed sufficiently quickly by fscache_relinquish_cookie() then it is
possible for __fscache_relinquish_cookie() to have detached the cookie from the
object and cleared the pointer before a thread is dispatched to process the
invalidation state in the object state machine.

Since the pending write clearance was deferred to the invalidation state to
make it asynchronous, we need to either wait in relinquishment for the stores
tree to be cleared in the invalidation state or we need to handle the clearance
in relinquishment.

Further, if the relinquishment code does clear the tree, then the invalidation
state need to make the clearance contingent on still having the cookie to hand
(since that's where the tree is rooted) and we have to prevent the cookie from
disappearing for the duration.

This can lead to an oops like the following:

David Howells caaef6900b FS-Cache: Fix object state machine to have separate work and wait states
Fix object state machine to have separate work and wait states as that makes
it easier to envision.

There are now three kinds of state:

 (1) Work state.  This is an execution state.  No event processing is performed
     by a work state.  The function attached to a work state returns a pointer
     indicating the next state to which the OSM should transition.  Returning
     NO_TRANSIT repeats the current state, but goes back to the scheduler
     first.

 (2) Wait state.  This is an event processing state.  No execution is
     performed by a wait state.  Wait states are just tables of "if event X
     occurs, clear it and transition to state Y".  The dispatcher returns to
     the scheduler if none of the events in which the wait state has an
     interest are currently pending.

 (3) Out-of-band state.  This is a special work state.  Transitions to normal
     states can be overridden when an unexpected event occurs (eg. I/O error).
     Instead the dispatcher disables and clears the OOB event and transits to
     the specified work state.  This then acts as an ordinary work state,
     though object->state points to the overridden destination.  Returning
     NO_TRANSIT resumes the overridden transition.

In addition, the states have names in their definitions, so there's no need for
tables of state names.  Further, the EV_REQUEUE event is no longer necessary as
that is automatic for work states.

Since the states are now separate structs rather than values in an enum, it's
not possible to use comparisons other than (non-)equality between them, so use
some object->flags to indicate what phase an object is in.

The EV_RELEASE, EV_RETIRE and EV_WITHDRAW events have been squished into one
(EV_KILL).  An object flag now carries the information about retirement.

Similarly, the RELEASING, RECYCLING and WITHDRAWING states have been merged
into an KILL_OBJECT state and additional states have been added for handling
waiting dependent objects (JUMPSTART_DEPS and KILL_DEPENDENTS).

A state has also been added for synchronising with parent object initialisation
(WAIT_FOR_PARENT) and another for initiating look up (PARENT_READY).

 (2) Abort attempts to copy anything read from the backing file whilst
     invalidation is in progress.

Question: CacheFiles uses truncation in a couple of places.  It has been using
notify_change() rather than sys_truncate() or something similar.  This means
it bypasses a bunch of checks and suchlike that it possibly should be making
(security, file locking, lease breaking, vfsmount write).  Should it be using
vfs_truncate() as added by a preceding patch or should it use notify_write()
and assume that anyone poking around in the cache files on disk gets
everything they deserve?

David Howells 9f10523f89 FS-Cache: Fix operation state management and accounting
Fix the state management of internal fscache operations and the accounting of
what operations are in what states.

This is done by:

 (1) Give struct fscache_operation a enum variable that directly represents the
     state it's currently in, rather than spreading this knowledge over a bunch
     of flags, who's processing the operation at the moment and whether it is
     queued or not.

     This makes it easier to write assertions to check the state at various
     points and to prevent invalid state transitions.

 (2) Add an 'operation complete' state and supply a function to indicate the
     completion of an operation (fscache_op_complete()) and make things call
     it.  The final call to fscache_put_operation() can then check that an op
     in the appropriate state (complete or cancelled).

 (3) Adjust the use of object->n_ops, ->n_in_progress, ->n_exclusive to better
     govern the state of an object:

	(a) The ->n_ops is now the number of extant operations on the object
	    and is now decremented by fscache_put_operation() only.

	(b) The ->n_in_progress is simply the number of objects that have been
	    taken off of the object's pending queue for the purposes of being
	    run.  This is decremented by fscache_op_complete() only.

	(c) The ->n_exclusive is the number of exclusive ops that have been
	    submitted and queued or are in progress.  It is decremented by
	    fscache_op_complete() and by fscache_cancel_op().

     fscache_put_operation() and fscache_operation_gc() now no longer try to
     clean up ->n_exclusive and ->n_in_progress.  That was leading to double
     decrements against fscache_cancel_op().

     fscache_cancel_op() now no longer decrements ->n_ops.  That was leading to
     double decrements against fscache_put_operation().

     fscache_submit_exclusive_op() now decides whether it has to queue an op
     based on ->n_in_progress being > 0 rather than ->n_ops > 0 as the latter
     will persist in being true even after all preceding operations have been
     cancelled or completed.  Furthermore, if an object is active and there are
     runnable ops against it, there must be at least one op running.

 (4) Add a remaining-pages counter (n_pages) to struct fscache_retrieval and
     provide a function to record completion of the pages as they complete.

     When n_pages reaches 0, the operation is deemed to be complete and
     fscache_op_complete() is called.

     Add calls to fscache_retrieval_complete() anywhere we've finished with a
     page we've been given to read or allocate for.  This includes places where
     we just return pages to the netfs for reading from the server and where
     accessing the cache fails and we discard the proposed netfs page.

The bugs in the unfixed state management manifest themselves as oopses like the
following where the operation completion gets out of sync with return of the
cookie by the netfs.  This is possible because the cache unlocks and returns
all the netfs pages before recording its completion - which means that there's
nothing to stop the netfs discarding them and returning the cookie.

David Howells c4d6d8dbf3 CacheFiles: Fix the marking of cached pages
Under some circumstances CacheFiles defers the marking of pages with PG_fscache
so that it can take advantage of pagevecs to reduce the number of calls to
fscache_mark_pages_cached() and the netfs's hook to keep track of this.

There are, however, two problems with this:

 (1) It can lead to the PG_fscache mark being applied _after_ the page is set
     PG_uptodate and unlocked (by the call to fscache_end_io()).

 (2) CacheFiles's ref on the page is dropped immediately following
     fscache_end_io() - and so may not still be held when the mark is applied.
     This can lead to the page being passed back to the allocator before the
     mark is applied.

Fix this by, where appropriate, marking the page before calling
fscache_end_io() and releasing the page.  This means that we can't take
advantage of pagevecs and have to make a separate call for each page to the
marking routines.

The symptoms of this are Bad Page state errors cropping up under memory
pressure, for example:

BUG: Bad page state in process tar  pfn:002da

 [<ffffffff813ac37b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

As can be seen, PG_private_2 (== PG_fscache) is set in the page flags.

Instrumenting fscache_mark_pages_cached() to verify whether page->mapping was
set appropriately showed that sometimes it wasn't.  This led to the discovery
that sometimes the page has apparently been reclaimed by the time the marker
got to see it.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Christoph Hellwig ebabe9a900 pass a struct path to vfs_statfs
We'll need the path to implement the flags field for statvfs support.
We do have it available in all callers except:

 - ecryptfs_statfs.  This one doesn't actually need vfs_statfs but just
   needs to do a caller to the lower filesystem statfs method.
 - sys_ustat.  Add a non-exported statfs_by_dentry helper for it which
   doesn't won't be able to fill out the flags field later on.

In addition rename the helpers for statfs vs fstatfs to do_*statfs instead
of the misleading vfs prefix.

Tejun Heo 8af7c12436 fscache: convert operation to use workqueue instead of slow-work
Make fscache operation to use only workqueue instead of combination of
workqueue and slow-work.  FSCACHE_OP_SLOW is dropped and
FSCACHE_OP_FAST is renamed to FSCACHE_OP_ASYNC and uses newly added
fscache_op_wq workqueue to execute op->processor().
fscache_operation_init_slow() is dropped and fscache_operation_init()
now takes @processor argument directly.

* Unbound workqueue is used.

* fscache_retrieval_work() is no longer necessary as OP_ASYNC now does
  the equivalent thing.

* sysctl fscache.operation_max_active added to control concurrency.
  The default value is nr_cpus clamped between 2 and
  WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE.

* debugfs support is dropped for now.  Tracing API based debug
  facility is planned to be added.

Tejun Heo 8b8edefa2f fscache: convert object to use workqueue instead of slow-work
Make fscache object state transition callbacks use workqueue instead
of slow-work.  New dedicated unbound CPU workqueue fscache_object_wq
is created.  get/put callbacks are renamed and modified to take
@object and called directly from the enqueue wrapper and the work
function.  While at it, make all open coded instances of get/put to
use fscache_get/put_object().

* Unbound workqueue is used.

* work_busy() output is printed instead of slow-work flags in object
  debugging outputs.  They mean basically the same thing bit-for-bit.

* sysctl fscache.object_max_active added to control concurrency.  The
  default value is nr_cpus clamped between 4 and
  WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE.

* slow_work_sleep_till_thread_needed() is replaced with fscache
  private implementation fscache_object_sleep_till_congested() which
  waits on fscache_object_wq congestion.

* debugfs support is dropped for now.  Tracing API based debug
  facility is planned to be added.

cachefiles_determine_cache_security() is expected to return with a
security override in place.  However, if set_create_files_as() fails, we
fail to do this.  In this case, we should just reinstate the security
override that was set by the caller.

Furthermore, if set_create_files_as() fails, we should dispose of the
new credentials we were in the process of creating.

David Howells c61ea31dac CacheFiles: Fix occasional EIO on call to vfs_unlink()
Fix an occasional EIO returned by a call to vfs_unlink():

	[ 4868.465413] CacheFiles: I/O Error: Unlink failed
	[ 4868.465444] FS-Cache: Cache cachefiles stopped due to I/O error
	[ 4947.320011] CacheFiles: File cache on md3 unregistering

	[ 7296.813394] FS-Cache: Cache "mycache" added (type cachefiles)
	[ 7296.813432] CacheFiles: File cache on md3 registered

What happens is this:

 (1) A cached NFS file is seen to have become out of date, so NFS retires the
     object and immediately acquires a new object with the same key.

 (2) Retirement of the old object is done asynchronously - so the lookup/create
     to generate the new object may be done first.

     This can be a problem as the old object and the new object must exist at
     the same point in the backing filesystem (i.e. they must have the same
     pathname).

 (3) The lookup for the new object sees that a backing file already exists,
     checks to see whether it is valid and sees that it isn't.  It then deletes
     that file and creates a new one on disk.

 (4) The retirement phase for the old file is then performed.  It tries to
     delete the dentry it has, but ext4_unlink() returns -EIO because the inode
     attached to that dentry no longer matches the inode number associated with
     the filename in the parent directory.

The trace below shows this quite well.

	[md5sum] ==> __fscache_relinquish_cookie(ffff88002d12fb58{NFS.fh,ffff88002ce62100},1)
	[md5sum] ==> __fscache_acquire_cookie({NFS.server},{NFS.fh},ffff88002ce62100)

NFS has retired the old cookie and asked for a new one.

	[kslowd] ==> fscache_object_state_machine({OBJ52,OBJECT_ACTIVE,24})
	[kslowd] <== fscache_object_state_machine() [->OBJECT_DYING]
	[kslowd] ==> fscache_object_state_machine({OBJ53,OBJECT_INIT,0})

	[kslowd] ==> fscache_object_state_machine({OBJ52,OBJECT_DYING,24})
	[kslowd] <== fscache_object_state_machine() [->OBJECT_RECYCLING]

The old object (OBJ52) is going through the terminal states to get rid of it,
whilst the new object - (OBJ53) - is coming into being.

	[kslowd] ==> fscache_object_state_machine({OBJ53,OBJECT_LOOKING_UP,0})
	[kslowd] ==> cachefiles_walk_to_object({ffff88003029d8b8},OBJ53,@68,)

	[kslowd] lookup 'Es0g00og0_Nd_XCYe3BOzvXrsBLMlN6aw16M1htaA'
	[kslowd] next -> ffff8800369faac8 positive

The new object has looked up the subdir in which the file would be in (getting
dentry ffff88002ce41bd0) and then looked up the file itself (getting dentry
ffff8800369faac8).

	[kslowd] validate 'Es0g00og0_Nd_XCYe3BOzvXrsBLMlN6aw16M1htaA'
	[kslowd] ==> cachefiles_bury_object(,'@68','Es0g00og0_Nd_XCYe3BOzvXrsBLMlN6aw16M1htaA')
	[kslowd] remove ffff8800369faac8 from ffff88002ce41bd0
	[kslowd] unlink stale object
	[kslowd] <== cachefiles_bury_object() = 0

It then checks the file's xattrs to see if it's valid.  NFS says that the
auxiliary data indicate the file is out of date (obvious to us - that's why NFS
ditched the old version and got a new one).  CacheFiles then deletes the old
file (dentry ffff8800369faac8).

	[kslowd] redo lookup
	[kslowd] lookup 'Es0g00og0_Nd_XCYe3BOzvXrsBLMlN6aw16M1htaA'
	[kslowd] next -> ffff88002cd94288 negative
	[kslowd] create -> ffff88002cd94288{ffff88002cdaf238{ino=148247}}

CacheFiles then redoes the lookup and gets a negative result in a new dentry
(ffff88002cd94288) which it then creates a file for.

	[kslowd] ==> cachefiles_mark_object_active(,OBJ53)
	[kslowd] <== cachefiles_mark_object_active() = 0
	[kslowd] === OBTAINED_OBJECT ===
	[kslowd] <== cachefiles_walk_to_object() = 0 [148247]
	[kslowd] <== fscache_object_state_machine() [->OBJECT_AVAILABLE]

The new object is then marked active and the state machine moves to the
available state - at which point NFS can start filling the object.

	[kslowd] ==> fscache_object_state_machine({OBJ52,OBJECT_RECYCLING,20})
	[kslowd] ==> fscache_release_object()
	[kslowd] ==> cachefiles_drop_object({OBJ52,2})
	[kslowd] ==> cachefiles_delete_object(,OBJ52{ffff8800369faac8})

The old object, meanwhile, goes on with being retired.  If allocation occurs
first, cachefiles_delete_object() has to wait for dir->d_inode->i_mutex to
become available before it can continue.

	[kslowd] ==> cachefiles_bury_object(,'@68','Es0g00og0_Nd_XCYe3BOzvXrsBLMlN6aw16M1htaA')
	[kslowd] remove ffff8800369faac8 from ffff88002ce41bd0
	[kslowd] unlink stale object
	EXT4-fs warning (device sda6): ext4_unlink: Inode number mismatch in unlink (148247!=148193)
	CacheFiles: I/O Error: Unlink failed
	FS-Cache: Cache cachefiles stopped due to I/O error

CacheFiles then tries to delete the file for the old object, but the dentry it
has (ffff8800369faac8) no longer points to a valid inode for that directory
entry, and so ext4_unlink() returns -EIO when de->inode does not match i_ino.

	[kslowd] <== cachefiles_bury_object() = -5
	[kslowd] <== cachefiles_delete_object() = -5
	[kslowd] <== fscache_object_state_machine() [->OBJECT_DEAD]
	[kslowd] ==> fscache_object_state_machine({OBJ53,OBJECT_AVAILABLE,0})
	[kslowd] <== fscache_object_state_machine() [->OBJECT_ACTIVE]

(Note that the above trace includes extra information beyond that produced by
the upstream code).

The fix is to note when an object that is being retired has had its object
deleted preemptively by a replacement object that is being created, and to
skip the second removal attempt in such a case.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

David Howells 8f9941aecc CacheFiles: Fix a race in cachefiles_delete_object() vs rename
cachefiles_delete_object() can race with rename.  It gets the parent directory
of the object it's asked to delete, then locks it - but rename may have changed
the object's parent between the get and the completion of the lock.

However, if such a circumstance is detected, we abandon our attempt to delete
the object - since it's no longer in the index key path, it won't be seen
again by lookups of that key.  The assumption is that cachefilesd may have
culled it by renaming it to the graveyard for later destruction.

André Goddard Rosa e7d2860b69 tree-wide: convert open calls to remove spaces to skip_spaces() lib function
Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
spaces from strings all over the tree.

It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  64688     584     592   65864   10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE)
  64641     584     592   65817   10119 (TOTALS-AFTER)

Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".

David Howells fee096deb4 CacheFiles: Catch an overly long wait for an old active object
Catch an overly long wait for an old, dying active object when we want to
replace it with a new one.  The probability is that all the slow-work threads
are hogged, and the delete can't get a look in.

What we do instead is:

 (1) if there's nothing in the slow work queue, we sleep until either the dying
     object has finished dying or there is something in the slow work queue
     behind which we can queue our object.

 (2) if there is something in the slow work queue, we return ETIMEDOUT to
     fscache_lookup_object(), which then puts us back on the slow work queue,
     presumably behind the deletion that we're blocked by.  We are then
     deferred for a while until we work our way back through the queue -
     without blocking a slow-work thread unnecessarily.

A backtrace similar to the following may appear in the log without this patch:
