commit 45df8462730d2149834980d3db16e2d2b9daaf60 upstream.

Fix server list handling in the following ways:

 (1) In afs_alloc_volume(), remove duplicate server list build code.  This
     was already done by afs_alloc_server_list() which afs_alloc_volume()
     previously called.  This just results in twice as many VL RPCs.

 (2) In afs_deliver_vl_get_entry_by_name_u(), use the number of server
     records indicated by -&gt;nServers in the UVLDB record returned by the
     VL.GetEntryByNameU RPC call rather than scanning all NMAXNSERVERS
     slots.  Unused slots may contain garbage.

 (3) In afs_alloc_server_list(), don't stop converting a UVLDB record into
     a server list just because we can't look up one of the servers.  Just
     skip that server and go on to the next.  If we can't look up any of
     the servers then we'll fail at the end.

Without this patch, an attempt to view the umich.edu root cell using
something like "ls /afs/umich.edu" on a dynamic root (future patch) mount
or an autocell mount will result in ENOMEDIUM.  The failure is due to kafs
not stopping after nServers'worth of records have been read, but then
trying to access a server with a garbage UUID and getting an error, which
aborts the server list build.

commit fe4d774c847398c2a45c10a780ccfde069840793 upstream.

afs_select_fileserver() ends the address cursor it is using in the case in
which we get some sort of network error and run out of addresses to iterate
through, before it jumps to try the next server.  This also needs to be
done when the server aborts with some sort of error that means we should
try the next server.

Fix this by:

 (1) Move the iterate_address afs_end_cursor() call to the next_server
     case.

 (2) End the cursor in the failed case.

 (3) Make afs_end_cursor() clear the -&gt;begun flag and -&gt;addr pointer in the
     address cursor.

 (4) Make afs_end_cursor() able to be called on an already cleared cursor.

Without this, something like the following oops may occur:

	AFS: Assertion failed
	18446612134397189888 == 0 is false
	0xffff88007c279f00 == 0x0 is false

commit 8305e579c653b127b292fcdce551e930f9560260 upstream.

In afs_select_fileserver(), we need to clear the -&gt;responded flag in the
address list when reusing it.  We should also clear it in
afs_select_current_fileserver().

To this end, just memset() the object before initialising it.

commit e44150157f42219fa5c074588efdb31ccfb197fc upstream.

afs_alloc_volume() needs to release the cell ref it obtained in the case of
an error.  Fix this by adding an afs_put_cell() call into the error path.

This can triggered when a lookup for a cell in a dynamic root or an
autocell mount returns an error whilst trying to look up the server (such
as ENOMEDIUM).  This results in an assertion failure oops when the module
is unloaded due to outstanding refs on a cell record.

Repeating creation and deletion of a file on an afs mount will run the box
out of memory, e.g.:

	dd if=/dev/zero of=/afs/scratch/m0 bs=$((1024*1024)) count=512
	rm /afs/scratch/m0

The problem seems to be that it's not properly decrementing the nlink count
so that the inode can be scrapped.

Note that this doesn't fix local creation followed by remote deletion.
That's harder to handle and will require a separate patch as we're not told
that the file has been deleted - only that the directory has changed.

Smatch warns that:

    fs/afs/rxrpc.c:922 afs_extract_data()
    error: uninitialized symbol 'remote_abort'.

Smatch is right that "remote_abort" might be uninitialized when we pass
it to afs_set_call_complete().  I don't know if that function uses the
uninitialized variable.  Anyway, the comment for rxrpc_kernel_recv_data(),
says that "*_abort should also be initialised to 0." and this patch does
that.

When an AFS inode is allocated by afs_alloc_inode(), the allocated
afs_vnode struct isn't necessarily reset from the last time it was used as
an inode because the slab constructor is only invoked once when the memory
is obtained from the page allocator.

This means that information can leak from one inode to the next because
we're not calling kmem_cache_zalloc().  Some of the information isn't
reset, in particular the permit cache pointer.

Bring the clearances up to date.

Fix four refcount bugs in afs_cache_permit():

 (1) When checking the result of the kzalloc(), we can't just return, but
     must put 'permits'.

 (2) We shouldn't put permits immediately after hashing a new permit as we
     need to keep the pointer stable so that we can check to see if
     vnode-&gt;permit_cache has changed before we decide whether to assign to
     it.

 (3) 'permits' is being put twice.

 (4) We need to put either the replacement or the thing replaced after the
     assignment to vnode-&gt;permit_cache.

Without this, lots of the following are seen:

  Kernel BUG at ffffffffa039857b [verbose debug info unavailable]
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  Kernel BUG at ffffffffa039858a [verbose debug info unavailable]
  ------------[ cut here ]------------

The addresses are in the .text..refcount section of the kafs.ko module.
Following the relocation records for the __ex_table section shows one to be
due to the decrement in afs_put_permits() and the other to be key_get() in
afs_cache_permit().

Occasionally, the following is seen:

  refcount_t overflow at afs_cache_permit+0x57d/0x5c0 [kafs] in cc1[562], uid/euid: 0/0

This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel
superblock flags.

The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the
moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to.

Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call,
while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb-&gt;s_flags.

The script to do this was:

    # places to look in; re security/*: it generally should *not* be
    # touched (that stuff parses mount(2) arguments directly), but
    # there are two places where we really deal with superblock flags.
    FILES="drivers/mtd drivers/staging/lustre fs ipc mm \
            include/linux/fs.h include/uapi/linux/bfs_fs.h \
            security/apparmor/apparmorfs.c security/apparmor/include/lib.h"
    # the list of MS_... constants
    SYMS="RDONLY NOSUID NODEV NOEXEC SYNCHRONOUS REMOUNT MANDLOCK \
          DIRSYNC NOATIME NODIRATIME BIND MOVE REC VERBOSE SILENT \
          POSIXACL UNBINDABLE PRIVATE SLAVE SHARED RELATIME KERNMOUNT \
          I_VERSION STRICTATIME LAZYTIME SUBMOUNT NOREMOTELOCK NOSEC BORN \
          ACTIVE NOUSER"

    SED_PROG=
    for i in $SYMS; do SED_PROG="$SED_PROG -e s/MS_$i/SB_$i/g"; done

    # we want files that contain at least one of MS_...,
    # with fs/namespace.c and fs/pnode.c excluded.
    L=$(for i in $SYMS; do git grep -w -l MS_$i $FILES; done| sort|uniq|grep -v '^fs/namespace.c'|grep -v '^fs/pnode.c')

    for f in $L; do sed -i $f $SED_PROG; done
