Pull btrfs fixes part 2 from Chris Mason:
 "This has one patch from Omar to bring iterate_shared back to btrfs.

  We have a tree of work we queue up for directory items and it doesn't
  lend itself well to shared access.  While we're cleaning it up, Omar
  has changed things to use an exclusive lock when there are delayed
  items"

Pull btrfs fixes from Chris Mason:
 "I have a two part pull this time because one of the patches Dave
  Sterba collected needed to be against v4.7-rc2 or higher (we used
  rc4).  I try to make my for-linus-xx branch testable on top of the
  last major so we can hand fixes to people on the list more easily, so
  I've split this pull in two.

  This first part has some fixes and two performance improvements that
  we've been testing for some time.

  Josef's two performance fixes are most notable.  The transid tracking
  patch makes a big improvement on pretty much every workload"

Btrfs: fix ->iterate_shared() by upgrading i_rwsem for delayed nodes

2016-06-25T13:20:10+00:00

Commit fe742fd4f90f ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"")
backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the
delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can
still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes.

This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an
exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a
more complete solution. While we're here, rename the
btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that
they're just for readdir.

Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build:

	while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do
		:
	done

along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell:

	while true; do
		for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do
			find . >/dev/null &
		done
		wait
	done

fs/nilfs2: fix potential underflow in call to crc32_le

2016-06-25T00:23:52+00:00

The value `bytes' comes from the filesystem which is about to be
mounted.  We cannot trust that the value is always in the range we
expect it to be.

Check its value before using it to calculate the length for the crc32_le
call.  It value must be larger (or equal) sumoff + 4.

This fixes a kernel bug when accidentially mounting an image file which
had the nilfs2 magic value 0x3434 at the right offset 0x406 by chance.
The bytes 0x01 0x00 were stored at 0x408 and were interpreted as a
s_bytes value of 1.  This caused an underflow when substracting sumoff +
4 (20) in the call to crc32_le.

ocfs2: disable BUG assertions in reading blocks

2016-06-25T00:23:52+00:00

According to some high-load testing, these two BUG assertions were
encountered, this led system panic.  Actually, there were some
discussions about removing these two BUG() assertions, it would not
bring any side effect.

Then, I did the the following changes,

1) use the existing macro CATCH_BH_JBD_RACES to wrap BUG() in the
   ocfs2_read_blocks_sync function like before.

2) disable the macro CATCH_BH_JBD_RACES in Makefile by default.

jbd2: get rid of superfluous __GFP_REPEAT

2016-06-25T00:23:52+00:00

jbd2_alloc is explicit about its allocation preferences wrt.  the
allocation size.  Sub page allocations go to the slab allocator and
larger are using either the page allocator or vmalloc.  This is all good
but the logic is unnecessarily complex.

1) as per Ted, the vmalloc fallback is a left-over:

 : jbd2_alloc is only passed in the bh->b_size, which can't be PAGE_SIZE, so
 : the code path that calls vmalloc() should never get called.  When we
 : conveted jbd2_alloc() to suppor sub-page size allocations in commit
 : d2eecb039368, there was an assumption that it could be called with a size
 : greater than PAGE_SIZE, but that's certaily not true today.

Moreover vmalloc allocation might even lead to a deadlock because the
callers expect GFP_NOFS context while vmalloc is GFP_KERNEL.

2) __GFP_REPEAT for requests <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is ignored
   since the flag was introduced.

Let's simplify the code flow and use the slab allocator for sub-page
requests and the page allocator for others.  Even though order > 0 is
not currently used as per above leave that option open.

nfsd: check permissions when setting ACLs

2016-06-24T16:11:52+00:00

Use set_posix_acl, which includes proper permission checks, instead of
calling ->set_acl directly.  Without this anyone may be able to grant
themselves permissions to a file by setting the ACL.

Lock the inode to make the new checks atomic with respect to set_acl.
(Also, nfsd was the only caller of set_acl not locking the inode, so I
suspect this may fix other races.)

This also simplifies the code, and ensures our ACLs are checked by
posix_acl_valid.

The permission checks and the inode locking were lost with commit
4ac7249e, which changed nfsd to use the set_acl inode operation directly
instead of going through xattr handlers.
