vfs: Remove unnecessary calls of check_submounts_and_drop

2014-10-09T06:38:56+00:00

Now that check_submounts_and_drop can not fail and is called from
d_invalidate there is no longer a need to call check_submounts_and_drom
from filesystem d_revalidate methods so remove it.

sched, cleanup, treewide: Remove set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) after schedule()

2014-09-19T10:35:17+00:00

schedule(), io_schedule() and schedule_timeout() always return
with TASK_RUNNING state set, so one more setting is unnecessary.

(All places in patch are visible good, only exception is
 kiblnd_scheduler() from:

      drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/klnds/o2iblnd/o2iblnd_cb.c

 Its schedule() is one line above standard 3 lines of unified diff)

No places where set_current_state() is used for mb().

Pull file locking changes from Jeff Layton:
 "Pretty quiet on the file-locking related front this cycle.  Just some
  small cleanups and the addition of some tracepoints in the lease
  handling code"

* tag 'locks-v3.16' of git://git.samba.org/jlayton/linux:
  locks: add some tracepoints in the lease handling code
  fs/locks.c: replace seq_printf by seq_puts
  locks: ensure that fl_owner is always initialized properly in flock and lease codepaths

locks: ensure that fl_owner is always initialized properly in flock and lease codepaths

2014-06-02T12:09:29+00:00

Currently, the fl_owner isn't set for flock locks. Some filesystems use
byte-range locks to simulate flock locks and there is a common idiom in
those that does:

    fl->fl_owner = (fl_owner_t)filp;
    fl->fl_start = 0;
    fl->fl_end = OFFSET_MAX;

Since flock locks are generally "owned" by the open file description,
move this into the common flock lock setup code. The fl_start and fl_end
fields are already set appropriately, so remove the unneeded setting of
that in flock ops in those filesystems as well.

Finally, the lease code also sets the fl_owner as if they were owned by
the process and not the open file description. This is incorrect as
leases have the same ownership semantics as flock locks. Set them the
same way. The lease code doesn't actually use the fl_owner value for
anything, so this is more for consistency's sake than a bugfix.

AFS: Pass an afs_call* to call->async_workfn() instead of a work_struct*

2014-05-23T12:05:22+00:00

call->async_workfn() can take an afs_call* arg rather than a work_struct* as
the functions assigned there are now called from afs_async_workfn() which has
to call container_of() anyway.

AFS: Fix kafs module unloading

2014-05-23T12:05:22+00:00

At present, it is not possible to successfully unload the kafs module if there
are outstanding async outgoing calls (those made with afs_make_call()).  This
appears to be due to the changes introduced by:

	commit 059499453a9abd1857d442b44da8b4c126dc72a8
	Author: Tejun Heo 
	Date:   Fri Mar 7 10:24:50 2014 -0500
	Subject: afs: don't use PREPARE_WORK

which didn't go far enough.  The problem is due to:

 (1) The aforementioned commit introduced a separate handler function pointer
     in the call, call->async_workfn, in addition to the original workqueue
     item, call->async_work, for asynchronous operations because workqueues
     subsystem cannot handle the workqueue item pointer being changed whilst
     the item is queued or being processed.

 (2) afs_async_workfn() was introduced in that commit to be the callback for
     call->async_work.  Its sole purpose is to run whatever call->async_workfn
     points to.

 (3) call->async_workfn is only used from afs_async_workfn(), which is only
     set on async_work by afs_collect_incoming_call() - ie. for incoming
     calls.

 (4) call->async_workfn is *not* set by afs_make_call() when outgoing calls are
     made, and call->async_work is set afs_process_async_call() - and not
     afs_async_workfn().

 (5) afs_process_async_call() now changes call->async_workfn rather than
     call->async_work to point to afs_delete_async_call() to clean up, but this
     is only effective for incoming calls because call->async_work does not
     point to afs_async_workfn() for outgoing calls.

 (6) Because, for incoming calls, call->async_work remains pointing to
     afs_process_async_call() this results in an infinite loop.

Instead, make the workqueue uniformly vector through call->async_workfn, via
afs_async_workfn() and simply initialise call->async_workfn to point to
afs_process_async_call() in afs_make_call().
