33670fa296 fuse: nfs export special lookups
Implement the get_parent export operation by sending a LOOKUP request with
".." as the name.

Implement looking up an inode by node ID after it has been evicted from
the cache.  This is done by seding a LOOKUP request with "." as the name
(for all file types, not just directories).

The filesystem can set the FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT flag in the INIT reply, to
indicate that it supports these special lookups.

Thanks to John Muir for the original implementation of this feature.

c180eebe13 fuse: add fuse_lookup_name() helper

dbd561d236 fuse: add export operations
Implement export_operations, to allow fuse filesystems to be exported to
NFS.  This feature has been in the out-of-tree fuse module, and is widely
used and tested.

It has not been originally merged into mainline, because doing the NFS
export in userspace was thought to be a cleaner and more efficient way of
doing it, than through the kernel.

While that is true, it would also have involved a lot of duplicated effort
at reimplementing NFS exporting (all the different versions of the
protocol).  This effort was unfortunately not undertaken by anyone, so we
are left with doing it the easy but less efficient way.

If this feature goes in, the out-of-tree fuse module can go away,
which would have several advantages:

  - not having to maintain two versions
  - less confusion for users
  - no bugs due to kernel API changes

Comment from hch:
 - Use the same fh_type values as XFS, since we use the same fh encoding.

764c76b371 locks: allow ->lock() to return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED
Allow filesystem's ->lock() method to call posix_lock_file() instead of
posix_lock_file_wait(), and return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED.  This makes it
possible to implement a such a ->lock() function, that works with the lock
manager, which needs the call to be asynchronous.

Now the vfs_lock_file() helper can be used, so this is a cleanup as well.

bde74e4bc6 locks: add special return value for asynchronous locks
Use a special error value FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED to mean that a locking
operation returned asynchronously.  This is returned by

  posix_lock_file() for sleeping locks to mean that the lock has been
  queued on the block list, and will be woken up when it might become
  available and needs to be retried (either fl_lmops->fl_notify() is
  called or fl_wait is woken up).

  f_op->lock() to mean either the above, or that the filesystem will
  call back with fl_lmops->fl_grant() when the result of the locking
  operation is known.  The filesystem can do this for sleeping as well
  as non-sleeping locks.

This is to make sure, that return values of -EAGAIN and -EINPROGRESS by
filesystems are not mistaken to mean an asynchronous locking.

This also makes error handling in fs/locks.c and lockd/svclock.c slightly
cleaner.

cc77b1521d lockd: dont return EAGAIN for a permanent error
Fix nlm_fopen() to return NLM_FAILED (or NLM_LCK_DENIED_NOLOCKS) instead
of NLM_LCK_DENIED.  The latter means the lock request failed because of a
conflicting lock (i.e.  a temporary error), which is wrong in this case.

Also fix the client to return ENOLCK instead of EAGAIN if a blocking lock
request returns with NLM_LOCK_DENIED.

873b477177 per-task-delay-accounting: add memory reclaim delay
Sometimes, application responses become bad under heavy memory load.
Applications take a bit time to reclaim memory.  The statistics, how long
memory reclaim takes, will be useful to measure memory usage.

This patch adds accounting memory reclaim to per-task-delay-accounting for
accounting the time of do_try_to_free_pages().

<i.e>

- When System is under low memory load,
  memory reclaim may not occur.

In the later case, the value of RECLAIM is increasing.
So, taskstats can show how much memory reclaim influences TAT.

Fix bacct_add_tsk()'s use of do_div() on an s64 by making ac_etime a u64

Possibly this should be guarded lest the interval calculation turn up

cast away, and it shouldn't end up negative anyway.

297c5d9263 task IO accounting: provide distinct tgid/tid I/O statistics
Report per-thread I/O statistics in /proc/pid/task/tid/io and aggregate
parent I/O statistics in /proc/pid/io.  This approach follows the same
model used to account per-process and per-thread CPU times.

As a practial application, this allows for example to quickly find the top
I/O consumer when a process spawns many child threads that perform the
actual I/O work, because the aggregated I/O statistics can always be found
in /proc/pid/io.

[ Oleg Nesterov points out that we should check that the task is still
  alive before we iterate over the threads, but also says that we can do
  that fixup on top of this later.  - Linus ]

081e4c8a75 bsdacct: rename acct_gbls to bsd_acct_struct
After I fixed access to task->tgid in kernel/acct.c, Oleg pointed out some
bad side effects with this accounting vs pid namespaces interaction.  I.e.
 when some task in pid namespace sets this accounting up, this blocks all
the others from doing the same.  Restricting this to init namespace only
could help, but didn't look a graceful solution.

So here is the approach to make this accounting work with pid namespaces
properly.

The idea is simple - when a task dies it accounts itself in each namespace
it is visible from and which set the accounting up.

For example here are the commands run and the output of lastcomm from init
and sub namespaces:

init_ns# accton pacct
 sub_ns# accton pacct (this is a different file - sub ns is run in
                       a chroot-ed environment)
init_ns# cat /dev/null
 sub_ns# ls /dev/null
init_ns# accton
 sub_ns# accton

 sub_ns#  lastcomm -f pacct
ls                      0        [136,0]    0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30
accton                  0        [136,0]    0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30

init_ns# lastcomm -f pacct
accton                  root     pts/0      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
cat                     root     pts/1      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30
ls                      root     pts/0      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub

This patch:

It will be visible in pid_namespace.h file, so fix its name to look better
outside the acct.c file.

49b5cf3472 accounting: account for user time when updating memory integrals
Adapt acct_update_integrals() to include user time when calculating the time
difference.  The units of acct_rss_mem1 and acct_vm_mem1 are also changed from
pages-jiffies to pages-usecs to avoid calling jiffies_to_usecs() in
xacct_add_tsk() which might overflow.

28325df0d9 markers: use rcu_barrier_sched() and call_rcu_sched()
rcu_barrier_sched() and call_rcu_sched() were introduced in 2.6.26 for the
Markers.  Change the marker code to use them.

It can be seen as a fix since the marker code was using an ugly,
temporary, #ifdef hack to work around CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.

dbda0de526 pidns: remove find_task_by_pid, unused for a long time

33166b1ffc shrink struct pid by removing padding on 64 bit builds
When struct pid is built on a 64 bit platform gcc has to insert padding to
maintain the correct alignment, by simply reordering its members the
memory usage shrinks from 88 bytes to 80.

I've successfully run with this patch on my desktop AMD64 machine.

There are no significant kernel size changes to a default config.X86_64
on the latest git v2.6.26-rc1

4ecb90090c sysctl: allow override of /proc/sys/net with CAP_NET_ADMIN
Extend the permission check for networking sysctl's to allow modification
when current process has CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and is not root.  This
version uses the until now unused permissions hook to override the mode
value for /proc/sys/net if accessed by a user with capabilities.

Found while working with Quagga.  It is impossible to turn forwarding
on/off through the command interface because Quagga uses secure coding
practice of dropping privledges during initialization and only raising via
capabilities when necessary.  Since the dameon has reset real/effective
uid after initialization, all attempts to access /proc/sys/net variables
will fail.

881adb8535 proc: always do ->release
Current two-stage scheme of removing PDE emphasizes one bug in proc:

		open
				rmmod
				remove_proc_entry
		close

->release won't be called because ->proc_fops were cleared.  In simple
cases it's small memory leak.

For every ->open, ->release has to be done.  List of openers is introduced
which is traversed at remove_proc_entry() if neeeded.

Discussions with Al long ago (sigh).
