This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Two kinds of objects there - ptmx and everything else (pty). The former is
created on mount and kept until the fs shutdown; the latter get created
and removed by tty layer (the references are borrowed into tty->driver_data).
The reference to ptmx dentry is also kept, but we only ever use it to
find ptmx inode on remount.
* turn d_add() into d_make_persistent() + dput() both in mknod_ptmx() and
in devpts_pty_new().
* turn dput() to d_make_discardable() in devpts_pty_kill().
* switch mknod_ptmx() to simple_{start,done}_creating().
* instead of storing in pts_fs_info a reference to ptmx dentry, store a reference
to its inode, seeing that this is what we use it for.

Convert the devpts filesystem to the new internal mount API as the old
one will be obsoleted and removed. This allows greater flexibility in

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide:

proc_handlers.

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in
making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the
register sysctl call that expects a size.

Commit 49246466a989 ("fsnotify: move fsnotify_nameremove() hook out of
d_delete()") moved the fsnotify delete hook before d_delete() so fsnotify
will have access to a positive dentry.
This allowed a race where opening the deleted file via cached dentry
is now possible after receiving the IN_DELETE event.
To fix the regression in pseudo filesystems, convert d_delete() calls
to d_drop() (see commit 46c46f8df9aa ("devpts_pty_kill(): don't bother
with d_delete()") and move the fsnotify hook after d_drop().
Add a missing fsnotify_unlink() hook in nfsdfs that was found during
the audit of fsnotify hooks in pseudo filesystems.
Note that the fsnotify hooks in simple_recursive_removal() follow
d_invalidate(), so they require no change.

d_delete only unhashes an entry if it is reached with
dentry->d_lockref.count != 1. Prior to commit 8ead9dd54716 ("devpts:
more pty driver interface cleanups"), d_delete was called on a dentry
from devpts_pty_kill with two references held, which would trigger the
unhashing, and the subsequent dputs would release it.
Commit 8ead9dd54716 reworked devpts_pty_kill to stop acquiring the second
reference from d_find_alias, and the d_delete call left the dentries
still on the hashed list without actually ever being dropped from dcache
before explicit cleanup. This causes the number of negative dentries for
devpts to pile up, and an `ls /dev/pts` invocation can take seconds to
return.
Provide always_delete_dentry() from simple_dentry_operations
as .d_delete for devpts, to make the dentry be dropped from dcache.
Without this cleanup, the number of dentries in /dev/pts/ can be grown
arbitrarily as:
`python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn(["ls", "/dev/pts"])'`
A systemtap probe on dcache_readdir to count d_subdirs shows this count
to increase with each pty spawn invocation above:
probe kernel.function("dcache_readdir") {
subdirs = &@cast($file->f_path->dentry, "dentry")->d_subdirs;
p = subdirs;
p = @cast(p, "list_head")->next;
i = 0
while (p != subdirs) {
p = @cast(p, "list_head")->next;
i = i+1;
}
printf("number of dentries: %d\n", i);
}

Most libcs will still look at /dev/ptmx when opening the master fd of a pty
device. When /dev/ptmx is a bind-mount of /dev/pts/ptmx and the TIOCGPTPEER
ioctl() is used to safely retrieve a file descriptor for the slave side of
the pty based on the master fd, the /proc/self/fd/{0,1,2} symlinks will
point to /. A very simply reproducer for this issue presupposing a libc
that uses TIOCGPTPEER in its openpty() implementation is:
unshare --mount
mount --bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
chmod 666 /dev/ptmx
script
ls -al /proc/self/fd/0
Having bind-mounts of /dev/pts/ptmx to /dev/ptmx not working correctly is a
regression. In addition, it is also a fairly common scenario in containers
employing user namespaces.
The reason for the current failure is that the kernel tries to verify the
useability of the devpts filesystem without resolving the /dev/ptmx
bind-mount first. This will lead it to detect that the dentry is escaping
its bind-mount. The reason is that while the devpts filesystem mounted at
/dev/pts has the devtmpfs mounted at /dev as its parent mount:
21 -- -- / /dev
-- 21 -- / /dev/pts
devtmpfs and devpts are on different devices
-- -- 0:6 / /dev
-- -- 0:20 / /dev/pts
This has the consequence that the pathname of the parent directory of the
devpts filesystem mount at /dev/pts is /. So if /dev/ptmx is a bind-mount
of /dev/pts/ptmx then the /dev/ptmx bind-mount and the devpts mount at
/dev/pts will end up being located on the same device which is recorded in
the superblock of their vfsmount. This means the parent directory of the
/dev/ptmx bind-mount will be /ptmx:
-- -- ---- /ptmx /dev/ptmx
Without the bind-mount resolution patch the kernel will now perform the
bind-mount escape check directly on /dev/ptmx. The function responsible for
this is devpts_ptmx_path() which calls pts_path() which in turn calls
path_parent_directory(). Based on the above explanation,
path_parent_directory() will yield / as the parent directory for the
/dev/ptmx bind-mount and not the expected /dev. Thus, the kernel detects
that /dev/ptmx is escaping its bind-mount and will set /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>
to /.
This patch changes the logic to first resolve any bind-mounts. After the
bind-mounts have been resolved (i.e. we have traced it back to the
associated devpts mount) devpts_ptmx_path() can be called. In order to
guarantee correct path generation for the slave file descriptor the kernel
now requires that a pts directory is found in the parent directory of the
ptmx bind-mount. This implies that when doing bind-mounts the ptmx
bind-mount and the devpts mount should have a common parent directory. A
valid example is:
mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
mount --bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
an invalid example is:
mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
mount --bind /dev/pts/ptmx /ptmx
This allows us to support:
- calling open on ptmx devices located inside non-standard devpts mounts:
mount -t devpts devpts /mnt
master = open("/mnt/ptmx", ...);
slave = ioctl(master, TIOCGPTPEER, ...);
- calling open on ptmx devices located outside the devpts mount with a
common ancestor directory:
mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
mount --bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
master = open("/dev/ptmx", ...);
slave = ioctl(master, TIOCGPTPEER, ...);
while failing on ptmx devices located outside the devpts mount without a
common ancestor directory:
mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
mount --bind /dev/pts/ptmx /ptmx
master = open("/ptmx", ...);
slave = ioctl(master, TIOCGPTPEER, ...);
in which case save path generation cannot be guaranteed.

The implementation of TIOCGPTPEER has two issues.
When /dev/ptmx (as opposed to /dev/pts/ptmx) is opened the wrong
vfsmount is passed to dentry_open. Which results in the kernel displaying
the wrong pathname for the peer.
The second is simply by caching the vfsmount and dentry of the peer it leaves
them open, in a way they were not previously Which because of the inreased
reference counts can cause unnecessary behaviour differences resulting in
regressions.
To fix these move the ioctl into tty_io.c at a generic level allowing
the ioctl to have access to the struct file on which the ioctl is
being called. This allows the path of the slave to be derived when
opening the slave through TIOCGPTPEER instead of requiring the path to
the slave be cached. Thus removing the need for caching the path.
A new function devpts_ptmx_path is factored out of devpts_acquire and
used to implement a function devpts_mntget. The new function devpts_mntget
takes a filp to perform the lookup on and fsi so that it can confirm
that the superblock that is found by devpts_ptmx_path is the proper superblock.
v2: Lots of fixes to make the code actually work
v3: Suggestions by Linus
- Removed the unnecessary initialization of filp in ptm_open_peer
- Simplified devpts_ptmx_path as gotos are no longer required
[ This is the fix for the issue that was reverted in commit
143c97cc6529, but this time without breaking 'pbuilder' due to
increased reference counts - Linus ]

This reverts commit c8c03f1858331e85d397bacccd34ef409aae993c.
It turns out that while fixing the ptmx file descriptor to have the
correct 'struct path' to the associated slave pty is a really good
thing, it breaks some user space tools for a very annoying reason.
The problem is that /dev/ptmx and its associated slave pty (/dev/pts/X)
are on different mounts. That was what caused us to have the wrong path
in the first place (we would mix up the vfsmount of the 'ptmx' node,
with the dentry of the pty slave node), but it also means that now while
we use the right vfsmount, having the pty master open also keeps the pts
mount busy.
And it turn sout that that makes 'pbuilder' very unhappy, as noted by
Stefan Lippers-Hollmann:
"This patch introduces a regression for me when using pbuilder
0.228.7[2] (a helper to build Debian packages in a chroot and to
create and update its chroots) when trying to umount /dev/ptmx (inside
the chroot) on Debian/ unstable (full log and pbuilder configuration
file[3] attached).
[...]
Setting up build-essential (12.3) ...
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.24-15) ...
I: unmounting dev/ptmx filesystem
W: Could not unmount dev/ptmx: umount: /var/cache/pbuilder/build/1340/dev/ptmx: target is busy
(In some cases useful info about processes that
use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1).)"
apparently pbuilder tries to unmount the /dev/pts filesystem while still
holding at least one master node open, which is arguably not very nice,
but we don't break user space even when fixing other bugs.
So this commit has to be reverted.
I'll try to figure out a way to avoid caching the path to the slave pty
in the master pty. The only thing that actually wants that slave pty

Christian Brauner reported that if you use the TIOCGPTPEER ioctl() to
get a slave pty file descriptor, the resulting file descriptor doesn't
look right in /proc/<pid>/fd/<fd>. In particular, he wanted to use
readlink() on /proc/self/fd/<fd> to get the pathname of the slave pty
(basically implementing "ptsname{_r}()").
The reason for that was that we had generated the wrong 'struct path'
when we create the pty in ptmx_open().
In particular, the dentry was correct, but the vfsmount pointed to the
mount of the ptmx node. That _can_ be correct - in case you use
"/dev/pts/ptmx" to open the master - but usually is not. The normal
case is to use /dev/ptmx, which then looks up the pts/ directory, and
then the vfsmount of the ptmx node is obviously the /dev directory, not
the /dev/pts/ directory.
We actually did have the right vfsmount available, but in the wrong
place (it gets looked up in 'devpts_acquire()' when we get a reference
to the pts filesystem), and so ptmx_open() used the wrong mnt pointer.
The end result of this confusion was that the pty worked fine, but when
if you did TIOCGPTPEER to get the slave side of the pty, end end result
would also work, but have that dodgy 'struct path'.
And then when doing "d_path()" on to get the pathname, the vfsmount
would not match the root of the pts directory, and d_path() would return
an empty pathname thinking that the entry had escaped a bind mount into
another mount.
This fixes the problem by making devpts_acquire() return the vfsmount
for the pts filesystem, allowing ptmx_open() to trivially just use the
right mount for the pts dentry, and create the proper 'struct path'.

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.
CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.
Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

In 99.99% of the cases only root in a user namespace can mount /dev/pts
and in those cases the owner of /dev/pts/ptmx will remain root.root
In the oddball case where someone else has CAP_SYS_ADMIN this code
modifies the /dev/pts mount code to use current_fsuid and current_fsgid
as the values to use when creating the /dev/ptmx inode. As is done
when any other file is created.
This is a code simplification, and it allows running without a root
user entirely.

In commit 8ead9dd54716 ("devpts: more pty driver interface cleanups") I
made devpts_get_priv() just return the dentry->fs_data directly. And
because I thought it wouldn't happen, I added a warning if you ever saw
a pts node that wasn't on devpts.
And no, that warning never triggered under any actual real use, but you
can trigger it by creating nonsensical pts nodes by hand.
So just revert the warning, and make devpts_get_priv() return NULL for
that case like it used to.

The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts"
in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If
there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx
uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails.
The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that
userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new
instance of the filesystem.
Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem.
Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the
mounter is in the initial mount namespace.
A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry
named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the
passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function
path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot.
In the implementation of devpts:
- devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of
devpts are equal.
- pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached
inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem.
- devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the
unnecessary inode hold is removed.
- devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a
deacrivate_super.
- The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now
ignored.
In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as
they are never used.
Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current
situation.
This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5,
centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3,
ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1,
slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the
caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being
two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower
copy does not end up getting used.

This is more prep-work for the upcoming pty changes. Still just code
cleanup with no actual semantic changes.
This removes a bunch pointless complexity by just having the slave pty
side remember the dentry associated with the devpts slave rather than
the inode. That allows us to remove all the "look up the dentry" code
for when we want to remove it again.
Together with moving the tty pointer from "inode->i_private" to
"dentry->d_fsdata" and getting rid of pointless inode locking, this
removes about 30 lines of code. Not only is the end result smaller,
it's simpler and easier to understand.
The old code, for example, depended on the d_find_alias() to not just
find the dentry, but also to check that it is still hashed, which in
turn validated the tty pointer in the inode.
That is a _very_ roundabout way to say "invalidate the cached tty
pointer when the dentry is removed".
The new code just does
dentry->d_fsdata = NULL;
in devpts_pty_kill() instead, invalidating the tty pointer rather more
directly and obviously. Don't do something complex and subtle when the
obvious straightforward approach will do.
The rest of the patch (ie apart from code deletion and the above tty
pointer clearing) is just switching the calling convention to pass the
dentry or file pointer around instead of the inode.

This gets rid of the horrible notion of having that
struct inode *ptmx_inode
be the linchpin of the interface between the pty code and devpts.
By de-emphasizing the ptmx inode, a lot of things actually get cleaner,
and we will have a much saner way forward. In particular, this will
allow us to associate with any particular devpts instance at open-time,
and not be artificially tied to one particular ptmx inode.
The patch itself is actually fairly straightforward, and apart from some
locking and return path cleanups it's pretty mechanical:
- the interfaces that devpts exposes all take "struct pts_fs_info *"
instead of "struct inode *ptmx_inode" now.
NOTE! The "struct pts_fs_info" thing is a completely opaque structure
as far as the pty driver is concerned: it's still declared entirely
internally to devpts. So the pty code can't actually access it in any
way, just pass it as a "cookie" to the devpts code.
- the "look up the pts fs info" is now a single clear operation, that
also does the reference count increment on the pts superblock.
So "devpts_add/del_ref()" is gone, and replaced by a "lookup and get
ref" operation (devpts_get_ref(inode)), along with a "put ref" op
(devpts_put_ref()).
- the pty master "tty->driver_data" field now contains the pts_fs_info,
not the ptmx inode.
- because we don't care about the ptmx inode any more as some kind of
base index, the ref counting can now drop the inode games - it just
gets the ref on the superblock.
- the pts_fs_info now has a back-pointer to the super_block. That's so
that we can easily look up the information we actually need. Although
quite often, the pts fs info was actually all we wanted, and not having
to look it up based on some magical inode makes things more
straightforward.
In particular, now that "devpts_get_ref(inode)" operation should really
be the *only* place we need to look up what devpts instance we're
associated with, and we do it exactly once, at ptmx_open() time.
The other side of this is that one ptmx node could now be associated
with multiple different devpts instances - you could have a single
/dev/ptmx node, and then have multiple mount namespaces with their own
instances of devpts mounted on /dev/pts/. And that's all perfectly sane
in a model where we just look up the pts instance at open time.
This will eventually allow us to get rid of our odd single-vs-multiple
pts instance model, but this patch in itself changes no semantics, only
an internal binding model.

Considering current pty code and multiple devpts instances, it's possible
to umount a devpts file system while a program still has /dev/tty opened
pointing to a previosuly closed pty pair in that instance. In the case all
ptmx and pts/N files are closed, umount can be done. If the program closes
/dev/tty after umount is done, devpts_kill_index will use now an invalid
super_block, which was already destroyed in the umount operation after
running ->kill_sb. This is another "use after free" type of issue, but now
related to the allocated super_block instance.
To avoid the problem (warning at ida_remove and potential crashes) for
this specific case, I added two functions in devpts which grabs additional
references to the super_block, which pty code now uses so it makes sure
the super block structure is still valid until pty shutdown is done.
I also moved the additional inode references to the same functions, which
also covered similar case with inode being freed before /dev/tty final
close/shutdown.

If devpts failed to initialize, it would store an ERR_PTR in the global
devpts_mnt. A subsequent open of /dev/ptmx would call devpts_new_index,
which would dereference devpts_mnt and crash.
Avoid storing invalid values in devpts_mnt; leave it NULL instead. Make
both devpts_new_index and devpts_pty_new fail gracefully with ENODEV in
that case, which then becomes the return value to the userspace open call
on /dev/ptmx.

Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the
file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied,
unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly
documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful,
except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting
remounted read-only.
However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are
actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's
probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from
read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is
not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something
like romfs).

When devpts is unmounted, there may be a no-longer-used IDR tree hanging
off the superblock we are about to kill. This needs to be cleaned up
before destroying the SB.
The leak is usually not a big deal because unmounting devpts is typically
done when shutting down the whole machine. However, shutting down an LXC
container instead of a physical machine exposes the problem (the garbage
is detectable with kmemleak).

After adding devpts multiple-insrances sysctl kernel.pty.max limit pty count for
each devpts instance independently, while kernel.pty.nr shows total pty count.
This patch restores sysctl kernel.pty.max as global limit (4096 by default),
adds pty reseve for main devpts (mounted without "newinstance" argument),
and new sysctl to tune it: kernel.pty.reserve (1024 by default)
Also it adds devpts mount option "max=%d" to limit pty count for each devpts
instance independently. (by default NR_UNIX98_PTY_MAX == 2^20)
Thus devpts instances in containers cannot eat up all available pty even if we didn't
set any limits, while with "max" argument we can adjust limits more precisely.
Plus, now open("/dev/ptmx") return -ENOSPC in case lack of pty indexes,
this is more informative than -EIO.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

devpts_get_tty() assumes that the inode passed in is associated with a valid
pty. But if the only reference to the pty is via a bind-mount, the inode
passed to devpts_get_tty() while valid, would refer to a pty that no longer
exists.
With a lot of debug effort, Grzegorz Nosek developed a small program (see
below) to reproduce a crash on recent kernels. This crash is a regression
introduced by the commit:
commit 527b3e4773628b30d03323a2cb5fb0d84441990f
Author: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@us.ibm.com>
Date: Mon Oct 13 10:43:08 2008 +0100
To fix, ensure that the dentry associated with the inode has not yet been
deleted/unhashed by devpts_pty_kill().

devpts_get_sb() calls memset(0) to clear mount options and calls
parse_mount_options() if user specified any mount options.
The memset(0) is bogus since the 'mode' and 'ptmxmode' options are
non-zero by default. parse_mount_options() restores options to default
anyway and can properly deal with NULL mount options.
So in devpts_get_sb() remove memset(0) and call parse_mount_options() even
for NULL mount options.

On remount, devpts fs only needs to parse the mount options. Users cannot
directly create/dirty files in /dev/pts so the MS_RDONLY flag and
shrinking the dcache does not really apply to devpts.
So effectively on remount, devpts only parses the mount options and updates
these options in its super block. As such, we could replace do_remount_sb()
call with a direct parse_mount_options().
Doing so enables subsequent patches to avoid parsing the mount options twice
and simplify the code.

simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if
it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev()
should:
up_write(sb->s_unmount);
deactivate_super(sb);
if simple_set_mnt() fails.
Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not

To support containers, allow multiple instances of devpts filesystem, such
that indices of ptys allocated in one instance are independent of ptys
allocated in other instances of devpts.
But to preserve backward compatibility, enable this support for multiple
instances only if:
- CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES is set to Y, and
- '-o newinstance' mount option is specified while mounting devpts
To use multi-instance mount, a container startup script could:
$ ns_exec -cm /bin/bash
$ umount /dev/pts
$ mount -t devpts -o newinstance lxcpts /dev/pts
$ mount -o bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
$ /usr/sbin/sshd -p 1234
where 'ns_exec -cm /bin/bash' is calls clone() with CLONE_NEWNS flag and execs
/bin/bash in the child process. A pty created by the sshd is not visible in
the original mount of /dev/pts.
USER-SPACE-IMPACT:
- See Documentation/fs/devpts.txt (included in next patch) for user-
space impact in multi-instance and mixed-mode operation.
TODO:
- Update mount(8), pts(4) man pages. Highlight impact of not
redirecting /dev/ptmx to /dev/pts/ptmx after a multi-instance mount.
Changelog[v6]:
- [Dave Hansen] Use new get_init_pts_sb() interface
- [Serge Hallyn] Don't bother displaying 'newinstance' in show_options
- [Serge Hallyn] Use macros (PARSE_REMOUNT/PARSE_MOUNT) instead of 0/1.
- [Serge Hallyn] Check error return from get_sb_single() (now
get_init_pts_sb())
- devpts_pty_kill(): don't dput error dentries
Changelog[v5]:
- Move get_sb_ref() definition to earlier patch
- Move usage info to Documentation/filesystems/devpts.txt (next patch)
- Make ptmx node even in init_pts_ns, now that default mode is 0000
(defined in earlier patch, enabled here).
- Cache ptmx dentry and use to update mode during remount
(defined in earlier patch, enabled here).
- Bugfix: explicitly ignore newinstance on remount (if newinstance was
specified on remount of initial mount, it would be ignored but
/proc/mounts would imply that the option was set)
Changelog[v4]:
- Update patch description to address H. Peter Anvin's comments
- Consolidate multi-instance mode code under new config token,
CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCE.
- Move usage-details from patch description to
Documentation/fs/devpts.txt
Changelog[v3]:
- Rename new mount option to 'newinstance'
- Create ptmx nodes only in 'newinstance' mounts
- Bugfix: parse_mount_options() modifies @data but since we need to

/dev/ptmx is closely tied to the devpts filesystem. An open of /dev/ptmx,
allocates the next pty index and the associated device shows up in the
devpts fs as /dev/pts/n.
Wih multiple instancs of devpts filesystem, during an open of /dev/ptmx
we would be unable to determine which instance of the devpts is being
accessed.
So we move the 'ptmx' node into /dev/pts and use the inode of the 'ptmx'
node to identify the superblock and hence the devpts instance. This patch
adds ability for the kernel to internally create the [ptmx, c, 5:2] device
when mounting devpts filesystem. Since the ptmx node in devpts is new and
may surprise some userspace scripts, the default permissions for the new
node is 0000. These permissions can be changed either using chmod or by
remounting with the new '-o ptmxmode=0666' mount option.
Changelog[v5]:
- [Serge Hallyn bugfix]: Letting new_inode() assign inode number to
ptmx can collide with hand-assigning inode numbers to ptys. So,
hand-assign specific inode number to ptmx node also.
- [Serge Hallyn]: Maybe safer to grab root dentry mutex while creating
ptmx node
- [Bugfix with Serge Hallyn] Replace lookup_one_len() in mknod_ptmx()
wih d_alloc_name() (lookup during ->get_sb() locks up system). To
simplify patchset, fold the ptmx_dentry patch into this.
Changelog[v4]:
- Change default permissions of pts/ptmx node to 0000.
- Move code for ptmxmode under #ifdef CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES.
Changelog[v3]:
- Rename ptmx_mode to ptmxmode (for consistency with 'newinstance')
Changelog[v2]:
- [H. Peter Anvin] Remove mknod() system call support and create the
ptmx node internally.
Changelog[v1]:
- Earlier version of this patch enabled creating /dev/pts/tty as
well. As pointed out by Al Viro and H. Peter Anvin, that is not
really necessary.

Factor out the code used to allocate/free a pts index into new interfaces,
devpts_new_index() and devpts_kill_index(). This localizes the external data
structures used in managing the pts indices.

Currently, devpts doesn't generate an fsnotify event upon pts creation
because the regular vfs paths aren't involved. Deallocation, on the other
hand, correctly generates a nameremove event thanks to the d_delete()
invocation in devpts_pty_kill().
This patch adds the missing fsnotify_create() trigger in devpts_pty_new().

This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want
to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.
Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
values for i_blksize.

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.
This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.
The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.
(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.
However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.
[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

This patch modifies the VFS setxattr, getxattr, and listxattr code to fall
back to the security module for security xattrs if the filesystem does not
support xattrs natively. This allows security modules to export the incore
inode security label information to userspace even if the filesystem does
not provide xattr storage, and eliminates the need to individually patch
various pseudo filesystem types to provide such access. The patch removes
the existing xattr code from devpts and tmpfs as it is then no longer
needed.
The patch restructures the code flow slightly to reduce duplication between
the normal path and the fallback path, but this should only have one
user-visible side effect - a program may get -EACCES rather than
-EOPNOTSUPP if policy denied access but the filesystem didn't support the
operation anyway. Note that the post_setxattr hook call is not needed in
the fallback case, as the inode_setsecurity hook call handles the incore
inode security state update directly. In contrast, we do call fsnotify in
both cases.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
