<id>5f9f48f5b385457426b4b8f3f4a604019a8e7350</id>
<content type='text'>
Mount fails if file system image has empty files because of sanity check
while reading superblock.  For empty files disk offset to end of file
(i_eoffset) is cpu_to_le32(-1).  Sanity check comparison, which compares
disk offset with file system size isn't valid for this value and hence
is ignored with this patch.

Steps to reproduce:

  $  dd if=/dev/zero of=bfs-image count=204800
  $  mkfs.bfs bfs-image
  $  mkdir bfs-mount-point
  $  sudo mount -t bfs -o loop bfs-image bfs-mount-point/
  $  cd bfs-mount-point/
  $  sudo touch a
  $  cd ..
  $  sudo umount bfs-mount-point/
  $  sudo mount -t bfs -o loop bfs-image bfs-mount-point/
  mount: /dev/loop0: can't read superblock

  $  dmesg
  [25526.689580] BFS-fs: bfs_fill_super(): Inode 0x00000003 corrupted

 "If you had created the filesystem with the proper mkfs under SCO
  UnixWare 7 you (probably) wouldn't encounter this issue. But since
  commercial Unix-es are now part of history and the only proper way is
  the Linux mkfs.bfs utility, your patch is fine"

<title>fs: Replace CURRENT_TIME_SEC with current_time() for inode timestamps</title>

<content type='text'>
CURRENT_TIME_SEC is not y2038 safe. current_time() will
be transitioned to use 64 bit time along with vfs in a
separate patch.
There is no plan to transistion CURRENT_TIME_SEC to use
y2038 safe time interfaces.

current_time() will also be extended to use superblock
range checking parameters when range checking is introduced.

This works because alloc_super() fills in the the s_time_gran
in super block to NSEC_PER_SEC.

<title>fs: support RENAME_NOREPLACE for local filesystems</title>

This is trivial to do:

 - add flags argument to foo_rename()
 - check if flags doesn't have any other than RENAME_NOREPLACE
 - assign foo_rename() to .rename2 instead of .rename

Filesystems converted:

affs, bfs, exofs, ext2, hfs, hfsplus, jffs2, jfs, logfs, minix, msdos,
nilfs2, omfs, reiserfs, sysvfs, ubifs, udf, ufs, vfat.

<title>kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg</title>

<content type='text'>
Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
memcg.  For the list, see below:

 - threadinfo
 - task_struct
 - task_delay_info
 - pid
 - cred
 - mm_struct
 - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
 - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
 - signal_struct
 - sighand_struct
 - fs_struct
 - files_struct
 - fdtable and fdtable-&gt;full_fds_bits
 - dentry and external_name
 - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
   most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.

The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds.  Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).
