NFS: Do not report writeback errors in nfs_getattr()

2022-02-16T20:15:22+00:00

The result of the writeback, whether it is an ENOSPC or an EIO, or
anything else, does not inhibit the NFS client from reporting the
correct file timestamps.

NFS: LOOKUP_DIRECTORY is also ok with symlinks

2022-02-14T19:58:48+00:00

Commit ac795161c936 (NFSv4: Handle case where the lookup of a directory
fails) [1], part of Linux since 5.17-rc2, introduced a regression, where
a symbolic link on an NFS mount to a directory on another NFS does not
resolve(?) the first time it is accessed:

NFS: Remove an incorrect revalidation in nfs4_update_changeattr_locked()

2022-02-14T19:58:48+00:00

In nfs4_update_changeattr_locked(), we don't need to set the
NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE flag, because we already know the value of the
change attribute, and we're already flagging the size. In fact, this
forces us to revalidate the change attribute a second time for no good
reason.
This extra flag appears to have been introduced as part of the xattr
feature, when update_changeattr_locked() was converted for use by the
xattr code.

NFS: Fix nfs4_proc_get_locations() kernel-doc comment

2022-02-08T14:14:26+00:00

Add the description of @server and @fhandle, and remove the excess
@inode in nfs4_proc_get_locations() kernel-doc comment to remove
warnings found by running scripts/kernel-doc, which is caused by
using 'make W=1'.

NFS: Fix initialisation of nfs_client cl_flags field

2022-02-08T14:13:49+00:00

For some long forgotten reason, the nfs_client cl_flags field is
initialised in nfs_get_client() instead of being initialised at
allocation time. This quirk was harmless until we moved the call to
nfs_create_rpc_client().

NFS: Avoid duplicate uncached readdir calls on eof

2022-02-02T15:47:33+00:00

If we've reached the end of the directory, then cache that information
in the context so that we don't need to do an uncached readdir in order
to rediscover that fact.

NFS: Don't overfill uncached readdir pages

2022-02-02T15:47:13+00:00

If we're doing an uncached read of the directory, then we ideally want
to read only the exact set of entries that will fit in the buffer
supplied by the getdents() system call. So unlike the case where we're
reading into the page cache, let's send only one READDIR call, before
trying to fill up the buffer.

Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups
  which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found
  along the way.

  The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals
  that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from
  complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing
  userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops
  to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all
  architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on
  the stack.

  Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task
  are the big successes for dead code removal this round.

  A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues
  reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I
  simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes
  they were fixing.

  There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I
  dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with
  something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some
  rebasing.

  Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls
  to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of
  struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the
  pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The
  flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is
  removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with
  signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed.

  There are several loosely related changes included because I am
  cleaning up and if I don't include them they will probably get lost.

  The original postings of these changes can be found at:
     https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87a6ha4zsd.fsf@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org

     https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87r19opkx1.fsf_-_@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org

  I trimmed back the last set of changes to only the obviously correct
  once. Simply because there was less time for review than I had hoped"
