<title>[PATCH] bitops: use non atomic operations for minix_*_bit() and ext2_*_bit()</title>

<id>67b0ad574b5ee90f8ea58196ff8a7f3780b75365</id>
<content type='text'>
Bitmap functions for the minix filesystem and the ext2 filesystem except
ext2_set_bit_atomic() and ext2_clear_bit_atomic() do not require the atomic
guarantees.

But these are defined by using atomic bit operations on several architectures.
 (cris, frv, h8300, ia64, m32r, m68k, m68knommu, mips, s390, sh, sh64, sparc,
sparc64, v850, and xtensa)

This patch switches to non atomic bit operation.

<title>[PATCH] 2TB files: st_blocks is invalid when calling stat64</title>

<id>abcb6c9fd13fc2ad7757b818924dc8109a0e3775</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch series fixes the following problems on 32 bits architecture.

o stat64 returns the lower 32 bits of blocks, although userland st_blocks
  has 64 bits, because i_blocks has only 32 bits.  The ioctl with FIOQSIZE has
  the same problem.

o As Dave Kleikamp said, making &gt;2TB file on JFS results in writing an
  invalid block number to disk inode.  The cause is the same as above too.

o In generic quota code dquot_transfer(), the file usage is calculated from
  i_blocks via inode_get_bytes().  If the file is over 2TB, the change of
  usage is less than expected.  The cause is the same as above too.

o As Trond Myklebust said, statfs64's entries related to blocks are invalid
  on statfs64 for a network filesystem which has more than 2^32-1 blocks with
  CONFIG_LBD disabled.  [PATCH 3/3]

We made patches to fix problems that occur when handling a large filesystem
and a large file.  It was discussed on the mails titled "stat64 for over 2TB
file returned invalid st_blocks".

<title>[PATCH] POLLRDHUP/EPOLLRDHUP handling for half-closed devices notifications</title>

<id>f348d70a324e15afc701a494f32ec468abb7d1eb</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement the half-closed devices notifiation, by adding a new POLLRDHUP
(and its alias EPOLLRDHUP) bit to the existing poll/select sets.  Since the
existing POLLHUP handling, that does not report correctly half-closed
devices, was feared to be changed, this implementation leaves the current
POLLHUP reporting unchanged and simply add a new bit that is set in the few
places where it makes sense.  The same thing was discussed and conceptually
agreed quite some time ago:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/12/116

Since this new event bit is added to the existing Linux poll infrastruture,
even the existing poll/select system calls will be able to use it.  As far
as the existing POLLHUP handling, the patch leaves it as is.  The
pollrdhup-2.6.16.rc5-0.10.diff defines the POLLRDHUP for all the existing
archs and sets the bit in the six relevant files.  The other attached diff
is the simple change required to sys/epoll.h to add the EPOLLRDHUP
definition.

There is "a stupid program" to test POLLRDHUP delivery here:

 http://www.xmailserver.org/pollrdhup-test.c

It tests poll(2), but since the delivery is same epoll(2) will work equally.

Without branch hints, the very unlikely chance of the loop repeating due to
cmpxchg failure is unrolled with gcc-4 that I have tested.

Improve this for architectures with a native cas/cmpxchg.  llsc archs
should try to implement this natively.
