GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (fixes)
Hi, Here are a number of small fixes for GFS2. There is a fix for FIEMAP on large sparse files, a negative dentry hashing fix, a fix for flock, and a bug fix relating to d_splice_alias usage. There are also (patches 1 and 5) a couple of updates which are less critical, but small and low risk.

Hi, Here are the current set of small fixes relating to GFS2. This patch set contains two minor docs/spelling fixes, some fixes for flock, a change to use GFP_NOFS to avoid recursion on a rarely used code path and a fix for a race relating to the glock lru, Steve. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Hi, Here is a set of small fixes for GFS2. There is a fix to drop s_umount which is copied in from the core vfs, two patches relate to a hard to hit "use after free" and memory leak. Two patches related to using DIO and buffered I/O on the same file to ensure correct operation in relation to glock state changes. The final patch adds an RCU read lock to ensure correct locking on an error path, Steve. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Hi, Out of these fives patches, the one for ensuring that the number of revokes is not exceeded, and the one for checking the glock is not already held in gfs2_getxattr are the two most important. The latter can be triggered by selinux. The other three patches are very small and fix mostly fairly trivial issues, Steve. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

There are four patches this time. The first fixes a problem where the wrong descriptor type was being written into the log for journaled data blocks. The second fixes a race relating to the deallocation of allocator data. The third provides a fallback if kmalloc is unable to satisfy a request to allocate a directory hash table. The fourth fixes the iopen glock caching so that inodes are deleted in a more timely manner after rmdir/unlink, Steve. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

This time there are just four fixes. There are a couple of minor updates to the quota code, a fix for KConfig to ensure that only valid combinations including GFS2 can be built, and a fix for a typo affecting end i/o processing when writing the journal. Also, there is a temporary fix for a performance regression relating to block reservations and directories. A longer fix will be applied in due course, but this deals with the most immediate problem for now, Steve. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Hi, Here are a number of GFS2 bug fixes. There are three from Andy Price which fix various issues spotted by automated code analysis. There are two from Lukas Czerner fixing my mistaken assumptions as to how FITRIM should work. Finally Ben Marzinski has fixed a bug relating to mmap and atime and also a bug relating to a locking issue in the transaction code.

Hi, Here are three GFS2 fixes for the current kernel tree. These are all related to the block reservation code which was added at the merge window. That code will be getting an update at the forthcoming merge window too. In the mean time though there are a few smaller issues which should be fixed. The first patch resolves an issue with write sizes of greater than 32 bits with the size hinting code. The second ensures that the allocation data structure is initialised when using xattrs and the third takes into account allocations which may have been made by other nodes which affect a reservation on the local node, Steve. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
