fs: Lock the inode LRU list separately

Introduce the inode_lru_lock to protect the inode_lru list. This
lock is nested inside the inode->i_lock to allow the inode to be
added to the LRU list in iput_final without needing to deal with
lock inversions. This keeps iput_final() clean and neat.

Further, where marking the inode I_FREEING and removing it from the
LRU, move the LRU list manipulation within the inode->i_lock to keep
the list manipulation consistent with iput_final. This also means
that most of the open coded LRU list removal + unused inode
accounting can now use the inode_lru_list_del() wrappers which
cleans the code up further.

However, this locking change means what the LRU traversal in
prune_icache() inverts this lock ordering and needs to use trylock
semantics on the inode->i_lock to avoid deadlocking. In these cases,
if we fail to lock the inode we move it to the back of the LRU to

There is a missing dput() when returning from autofs4_expire_direct()

autofs4 - reinstate last used update on access

When direct (and offset) mounts were introduced the the last used
timeout could no longer be updated in ->d_revalidate(). This is
because covered direct mounts would be followed over without calling
the autofs file system. As a result the definition of the busyness
check for all entries was changed to be "actually busy" being an open
file or working directory within the automount. But now we have a call
back in the follow so the last used update on any access can be
re-instated. This requires DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT to always be set.

UBIFS: fix assertion warning and refine comments

This patch fixes the following UBIFS assertion warning:

The 'PG_checked' flag is used to indicate that the page does not
supposedly exist on the media (e.g., a hole or a page beyond the
inode size), so it requires slightly bigger budget, because we have
to account the indexing size increase. And this flag basically
tells that the budget for this page has to be "new page budget".
The "new page budget" is slightly bigger than the "existing page
budget".

The 'do_readpage()' function has the following assertion which
sometimes is hit: 'ubifs_assert(!PageChecked(page))'. Obviously,
the meaning of this assertion is: "I should not be asked to read
a page which does not exist on the media".

However, in 'ubifs_write_begin()' we have a small "trick". Notice,
that VFS may write pages which were not read yet, so the page data
were not loaded from the media to the page cache yet. If VFS tells
that it is going to change only some part of the page, we obviously
have to load it from the media. However, if VFS tells that it is
going to change whole page, we do not read it from the media for
optimization purposes.

However, since we do not read it, we do not know if it exists on
the media or not (a hole, etc). So we set the 'PG_checked' flag
to this page to force bigger budget, just in case.

So 'ubifs_write_begin()' sets 'PG_checked'. Then we are in
'ubifs_write_end()'. And VFS tells us: "hey, for some reasons I
changed my mind and did not change whole page". Frankly, I do not
know why this happens, but I hit this somehow on an ARM platform.
And this is extremely rare.

So in this case UBIFS does the following:

1. Cancels allocated budget.
2. Loads the page from the media by calling 'do_readpage()'.
3. Asks VFS to repeat the whole write operation from the very
   beginning (call '->write_begin() again, etc).

And the assertion warning is hit at the step 2 - remember we have
the 'PG_checked' set for this page, and 'do_readpage()' does not
like this. So this patch fixes the problem by adding step 1.5 and
cleaning the 'PG_checked' before calling 'do_readpage()'.

All in all, this patch does not fix any functionality issue, but it
silences UBIFS false positive warning which may happen in very very
rare cases.

And while on it, this patch also improves a commentary which explains
the reasons of setting the 'PG_checked' flag for the page. The old
commentary was a bit difficult to understand.

drm/radeon/kms: fix hardcoded EDID handling

On some servers there is a hardcoded EDID provided
in the vbios so that the driver will always see a
display connected even if something like a KVM
prevents traditional means like DDC or load
detection from working properly.  Also most
server boards with DVI are not actually DVI, but
DVO connected to a virtual KVM service processor.
If we fail to detect a monitor via DDC or load
detection and a hardcoded EDID is available, use
it.

Additionally, when using the hardcoded EDID, use
a copy of it rather than the actual one stored
in the driver as the detect() and get_modes()
functions may free it if DDC is successful.

This fixes the virtual KVM on several internal
servers.

Revert "drm/i915: Don't save/restore hardware status page address register"

This reverts commit a7a75c8f70d6f6a2f16c9f627f938bbee2d32718.

There are two different variations on how Intel hardware addresses the
"Hardware Status Page". One as a location in physical memory and the
other as an offset into the virtual memory of the GPU, used in more
recent chipsets. (The HWS itself is a cacheable region of memory which
the GPU can write to without requiring CPU synchronisation, used for
updating various details of hardware state, such as the position of
the GPU head in the ringbuffer, the last breadcrumb seqno, etc).

These two types of addresses were updated in different locations of code
- one inline with the ringbuffer initialisation, and the other during
device initialisation. (The HWS page is logically associated with
the rings, and there is one HWS page per ring.) During resume, only the
ringbuffers were being re-initialised along with the virtual HWS page,
leaving the older physical address HWS untouched. This then caused a
hang on the older gen3/4 (915GM, 945GM, 965GM) the first time we tried
to synchronise the GPU as the breadcrumbs were never being updated.

  user namespace.
- Teach cap_capable to handle capabilities in a non-default
  user namespace.

The motivation is to get to the unprivileged creation of new
namespaces.  It looks like this gets us 90% of the way there, with
only potential uid confusion issues left.

I still need to handle getting all caps after creation but otherwise I

capabilities to the user_ns he created.  THis is because we
were first checking whether his effective caps had the caps
he needed and returning -EPERM if not, and THEN checking whether
he was the creator.  Reverse those checks.

02/16/2011: [serge] fix a logic bug: the root user is always creator of
    init_user_ns, but should not always have capabilities to
    it!  Fix the check in cap_capable().
02/21/2011: Add the required user_ns parameter to security_capable,
    fixing a compile failure.
02/23/2011: Convert some macros to functions as per akpm comments.  Some
    couldn't be converted because we can't easily forward-declare
    them (they are inline if !SECURITY, extern if SECURITY).  Add
    a current_user_ns function so we can use it in capability.h
    without #including cred.h.  Move all forward declarations
    together to the top of the #ifdef __KERNEL__ section, and use

13 years agouserns: add a user_namespace as creator/owner of uts_namespace
Serge E. Hallyn [Wed, 23 Mar 2011 23:43:16 +0000 (16:43 -0700)]
userns: add a user_namespace as creator/owner of uts_namespace

The expected course of development for user namespaces targeted
capabilities is laid out at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserNamespace.

Goals:

- Make it safe for an unprivileged user to unshare namespaces.  They
  will be privileged with respect to the new namespace, but this should
  only include resources which the unprivileged user already owns.

- Provide separate limits and accounting for userids in different
  namespaces.

Status:

  Currently (as of 2.6.38) you can clone with the CLONE_NEWUSER flag to
  get a new user namespace if you have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN, CAP_SETUID, and
  CAP_SETGID capabilities.  What this gets you is a whole new set of
  userids, meaning that user 500 will have a different 'struct user' in
  your namespace than in other namespaces.  So any accounting information
  stored in struct user will be unique to your namespace.

  However, throughout the kernel there are checks which

  - simply check for a capability.  Since root in a child namespace
    has all capabilities, this means that a child namespace is not
    constrained.

  - simply compare uid1 == uid2.  Since these are the integer uids,
    uid 500 in namespace 1 will be said to be equal to uid 500 in
    namespace 2.

  As a result, the lxc implementation at lxc.sf.net does not use user
  namespaces.  This is actually helpful because it leaves us free to
  develop user namespaces in such a way that, for some time, user
  namespaces may be unuseful.

Bugs aside, this patchset is supposed to not at all affect systems which
are not actively using user namespaces, and only restrict what tasks in
child user namespace can do.  They begin to limit privilege to a user
namespace, so that root in a container cannot kill or ptrace tasks in the
parent user namespace, and can only get world access rights to files.
Since all files currently belong to the initila user namespace, that means
that child user namespaces can only get world access rights to *all*
files.  While this temporarily makes user namespaces bad for system
containers, it starts to get useful for some sandboxing.

I've run the 'runltplite.sh' with and without this patchset and found no
difference.

This patch:

copy_process() handles CLONE_NEWUSER before the rest of the namespaces.
So in the case of clone(CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWUTS) the new uts namespace
will have the new user namespace as its owner.  That is what we want,
since we want root in that new userns to be able to have privilege over
it.

Changelog:
Feb 15: don't set uts_ns->user_ns if we didn't create
a new uts_ns.
Feb 23: Move extern init_user_ns declaration from
init/version.c to utsname.h.
