CIFS currently allows you to change the mode of an inode on a share that
doesn't have unix extensions enabled, and isn't using cifsacl. The inode
in this case *only* has its mode changed in memory on the client. This
is problematic since it can change any time the inode is purged from the
cache.
This patch makes cifs_setattr silently ignore most mode changes when
unix extensions and cifsacl support are not enabled, and when the share
is not mounted with the "dynperm" option. The exceptions are:
When a mode change would remove all write access to an inode we turn on
the ATTR_READONLY bit on the server and remove all write bits from the
inode's mode in memory.
When a mode change would add a write bit to an inode that previously had
them all turned off, it turns off the ATTR_READONLY bit on the server,
and resets the mode back to what it would normally be (generally, the
file_mode or dir_mode of the share).

CIFS currently allows you to change the ownership of a file, but unless
unix extensions are enabled this change is not passed off to the server.
Have CIFS silently ignore ownership changes that can't be persistently
stored on the server unless the "setuids" option is explicitly
specified.
We could return an error here (-EOPNOTSUPP or something), but this is
how most disk-based windows filesystems on behave on Linux (e.g. VFAT,
NTFS, etc). With cifsacl support and proper Windows to Unix idmapping
support, we may be able to do this more properly in the future.

When CIFS creates a new inode on a mount without unix extensions, it
temporarily assigns the mode that was passed to it in the create/mkdir
call. Eventually, when the inode is revalidated, it changes to have the
file_mode or dir_mode for the mount. This is confusing to users who
expect that the mode shouldn't change this way. It's also problematic
since only the mode is treated this way, not the uid or gid. Suppose you
have a CIFS mount that's mounted with:
uid=0,gid=0,file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777
...if an unprivileged user comes along and does this on the mount:
mkdir -m 0700 foo
touch foo/bar
...there is a period of time where the touch will fail, since the dir
will initially be owned by root and have mode 0700. If the user waits
long enough, then "foo" will be revalidated and will get the correct
dir_mode permissions.
This patch changes cifs_mkdir and cifs_create to not overwrite the
mode found by the initial cifs_get_inode_info call after the inode is
created on the server. Legacy behavior can be reenabled with the
new "dynperm" mount option.

When mounting a share with posix extensions disabled,
cifs_get_inode_info turns off all the write bits in the mode for regular
files if ATTR_READONLY is set. Directories and other inode types,
however, can also have ATTR_READONLY set, but the mode gives no
indication of this.
This patch makes this apply to other inode types besides regular files.
It also cleans up how modes are set in cifs_get_inode_info for both the
"normal" and "dynperm" cases.

When we have multiple buffers in a single page for a blocksize == pagesize
filesystem we might overwrite the page contents if two callers hit it
shortly after each other. To prevent that we need to keep the page locked
until I/O is completed and the page marked uptodate.

Compiling ppc64_defconfig with gcc 4.3 gives thes warnings:

It turns out that in the cases where is_ipi is uninitialized, another
variable (mpic) will be NULL and it is dereferenced. Protect against
this by returning if mpic is NULL in mpic_irq_set_priority, and removing
mpic_irq_get_priority completely as it has no in tree callers.

writeback
If we allow memory reclaim to wait on the pages under writeback in inode
cluster writeback we could deadlock because we are currently holding the
ILOCK on the initial writeback inode which is needed in data I/O
completion to change the file size or do unwritten extent conversion
before the pages are taken out of writeback state.

xfs_fsync() fails to wait for data I/O completion before checking if the
inode is dirty or clean to decide whether to log the inode or not. This
misses inode size updates when the data flushed by the fsync() is
extending the file.
Hence, like fdatasync(), we need to wait for I/o completion first, then
check the inode for cleanliness. Doing so makes the behaviour of
xfs_fsync() identical for fsync and fdatasync and we *always* use
synchronous semantics if the inode is dirty. Therefore also kill the
differences and remove the unused flags from the xfs_fsync function and
callers.

On kvm I have seen some rare hangs in stop_machine when I used more guest
cpus than hosts cpus. e.g. 32 guest cpus on 1 host cpu triggered the
hang quite often. I could also reproduce the problem on a 4 way z/VM host with
a 64 way guest.
It turned out that the guest was consuming all available cpus mostly for
spinning on scheduler locks like rq->lock. This is expected as the threads are
calling yield all the time.
The problem is now, that the host scheduling decisings together with the guest
scheduling decisions and spinlocks not being fair managed to create an
interesting scenario similar to a live lock. (Sometimes the hang resolved
itself after some minutes)
Changing stop_machine to yield the cpu to the hypervisor when yielding inside
the guest fixed the problem for me. While I am not completely happy with this
patch, I think it causes no harm and it really improves the situation for me.
I used cpu_relax for yielding to the hypervisor, does that work on all
architectures?
p.s.: If you want to reproduce the problem, cpu hotplug and kprobes use
stop_machine_run and both triggered the problem after some retries.
