tmpfs,ceph,gfs2,isofs,reiserfs,xfs: fix fh_len checking

2012-10-10T03:33:55+00:00

Fuzzing with trinity oopsed on the 1st instruction of shmem_fh_to_dentry(),
	u64 inum = fid->raw[2];
which is unhelpfully reported as at the end of shmem_alloc_inode():

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880061cd3000
IP: [] shmem_alloc_inode+0x40/0x40
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
Call Trace:
 [] ? exportfs_decode_fh+0x79/0x2d0
 [] do_handle_open+0x163/0x2c0
 [] sys_open_by_handle_at+0xc/0x10
 [] tracesys+0xe1/0xe6

Right, tmpfs is being stupid to access fid->raw[2] before validating that
fh_len includes it: the buffer kmalloc'ed by do_sys_name_to_handle() may
fall at the end of a page, and the next page not be present.

But some other filesystems (ceph, gfs2, isofs, reiserfs, xfs) are being
careless about fh_len too, in fh_to_dentry() and/or fh_to_parent(), and
could oops in the same way: add the missing fh_len checks to those.

->encode_fh() API change

2012-05-30T03:28:33+00:00

pass inode + parent's inode or NULL instead of dentry + bool saying
whether we want the parent or not.

NOTE: that needs ceph fix folded in.

GFS2: Add readahead to sequential directory traversal

2011-11-08T09:52:12+00:00

This patch adds read-ahead capability to GFS2's
directory hash table management.  It greatly improves
performance for some directory operations.  For example:
In one of my file systems that has 1000 directories, each
of which has 1000 files, time to execute a recursive
ls (time ls -fR /mnt/gfs2 > /dev/null) was reduced
from 2m2.814s on a stock kernel to 0m45.938s.

GFS2: Make writeback more responsive to system conditions

2011-04-20T08:01:37+00:00

This patch adds writeback_control to writing back the AIL
list. This means that we can then take advantage of the
information we get in ->write_inode() in order to set off
some pre-emptive writeback.

In addition, the AIL code is cleaned up a bit to make it
a bit simpler to understand.

There is still more which can usefully be done in this area,
but this is a good start at least.

exportfs: Return the minimum required handle size

2011-03-14T13:15:28+00:00

The exportfs encode handle function should return the minimum required
handle size. This helps user to find out the handle size by passing 0
handle size in the first step and then redoing to the call again with
the returned handle size value.
