Fix f_version type: should be u64 instead of long
There is a type inconsistency between struct inode i_version and struct file
f_version.
fs.h:
struct inode
u64 i_version;
and
struct file
unsigned long f_version;
Users do:
fs/ext3/dir.c:
if (filp->f_version != inode->i_version) {
So why isn't f_version a u64 ? It becomes a problem if versions gets
higher than 2^32 and we are on an architecture where longs are 32 bits.
This patch changes the f_version type to u64, and updates the users accordingly.
It applies to 2.6.23-rc2-mm2.

When a new block bitmap is read from disk in read_block_bitmap() there are
a few bits that should ALWAYS be set. In particular, the blocks given by
ext4_blk_bitmap, ext4_inode_bitmap and ext4_inode_table. Validate the
block bitmap against these blocks.

ext[234]_get_group_desc never tests the bh argument, and only sets it if it
is passed in; it is perfectly happy with a NULL bh argument. But, many
callers send one in and never use it. May as well call with NULL like
other callers who don't use the bh.

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used. And
the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions. The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.
Convert
ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags)
to
ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object)
throughout the kernel

Hugh spotted that some code does:
percpu_counter_add(&counter, -unsignedlong)
which, when the amount argument is of type s32, sort-of works thanks to
two's-complement. However when we'd change the type to s64 this breaks on 32bit
machines, because the promotion rules zero extend the unsigned number.
Provide percpu_counter_sub() to hide the s64 cast. That is:
percpu_counter_sub(&counter, foo)
is equal to:
percpu_counter_add(&counter, -(s64)foo);

Combine the file_ra_state members
unsigned long prev_index
unsigned int prev_offset
into
loff_t prev_pos
It is more consistent and better supports huge files.
Thanks to Peter for the nice proposal!

The do_split() function for htree dir blocks is intended to split a leaf
block to make room for a new entry. It sorts the entries in the original
block by hash value, then moves the last half of the entries to the new
block - without accounting for how much space this actually moves. (IOW,
it moves half of the entry *count* not half of the entry *space*). If by
chance we have both large & small entries, and we move only the smallest
entries, and we have a large new entry to insert, we may not have created
enough space for it.
The patch below stores each record size when calculating the dx_map, and
then walks the hash-sorted dx_map, calculating how many entries must be
moved to more evenly split the existing entries between the old block and
the new block, guaranteeing enough space for the new entry.
The dx_map "offs" member is reduced to u16 so that the overall map size
does not change - it is temporarily stored at the end of the new block, and
if it grows too large it may be overwritten. By making offs and size both
u16, we won't grow the map size.
Also add a few comments to the functions involved.
This fixes the testcase reported by hooanon05@yahoo.co.jp on the
linux-ext4 list, "ext3 dir_index causes an error"

ext[234]_check_descriptors sanity checks block group descriptor geometry at
mount time, testing whether the block bitmap, inode bitmap, and inode table
reside wholly within the blockgroup. However, the inode table test is off
by one so that if the last block in the inode table resides on the last
block of the block group, the test incorrectly fails. This is because it
tests the last block as (start + length) rather than (start + length - 1).
This can be seen by trying to mount a filesystem made such as:
mkfs.ext2 -F -b 1024 -m 0 -g 256 -N 3744 fsfile 1024
which yields:
EXT2-fs error (device loop0): ext2_check_descriptors: Inode table for group 0 not in group (block 101)!
EXT2-fs: group descriptors corrupted!
There is a similar bug in e2fsprogs, patch already sent for that.
(I wonder if inside(), outside(), and/or in_range() should someday be
used in this and other tests throughout the ext filesystems...)

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Split ondemand readahead interface into two functions. I think this makes it
a little clearer for non-readahead experts (like Rusty).
Internally they both call ondemand_readahead(), but the page argument is
changed to an obvious boolean flag.

Convert ext3/ext4 dir reads to use on-demand readahead.
Readahead for dirs operates _not_ on file level, but on blockdev level. This
makes a difference when the data blocks are not continuous. And the read
routine is somehow opaque: there's no handy info about the status of current
page. So a simplified call scheme is employed: to call into readahead
whenever the current page falls out of readahead windows.

Introduce is_owner_or_cap() macro in fs.h, and convert over relevant
users to it. This is done because we want to avoid bugs in the future
where we check for only effective fsuid of the current task against a
file's owning uid, without simultaneously checking for CAP_FOWNER as
well, thus violating its semantics.
[ XFS uses special macros and structures, and in general looked ...
untouchable, so we leave it alone -- but it has been looked over. ]
The (current->fsuid != inode->i_uid) check in generic_permission() and
exec_permission_lite() is left alone, because those operations are
covered by CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE and CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH. Similarly operations
falling under the purview of CAP_CHOWN and CAP_LEASE are also left alone.

currently the export_operation structure and helpers related to it are in

This is a patch that speeds up statfs. It is very simple - the "overhead"
calculation, which takes a huge amount of time for large filesystems, never
changes unless the size of the filesystem itself changes. That means we can
store it in memory and only recalculate if the filesystem has been resized
(almost never).
It also fixes a minor problem that we never update the on-disk superblock free
blocks/inodes counts until the filesystem is unmounted. While not fatal, we
may as well update that on disk when we have the information, and it makes
things like debugfs and dumpe2fs report a bit more accurate info.
