Peter Zijlstra 27d028de64 perf report: Update for the new FORK/EXIT events
Since FORK is now also issued for threads, detect those by
comparing the parent and child PID.

Teach it about EXIT events and ignore them.

Peter Zijlstra 9f498cc5be perf_counter: Full task tracing
In order to be able to distinguish between no samples due to
inactivity and no samples due to task ended, Arjan asked for
PERF_EVENT_EXIT events. This is useful to the boot delay
instrumentation (bootchart) app.

This patch changes the PERF_EVENT_FORK to be emitted on every
clone, and adds PERF_EVENT_EXIT to be emitted on task exit,
after the task's counters have been closed.

This task tracing is controlled through: attr.comm || attr.mmap
and through the new attr.task field.

Peter Zijlstra e53c099470 perf_counter: Collapse inherit on read()
Currently the counter value returned by read() is the value of
the parent counter, to which child counters are only fed back
on child exit.

Thus read() can return rather erratic (and meaningless) numbers
depending on the state of the child processes.

Change this by always iterating the full child hierarchy on
read() and sum all counters.

Eric Sandeen 97db39a1f6 xfs: reduce bmv_count in xfs_vn_fiemap
commit 6321e3ed2a caused
the full bmv_count's worth of getbmapx structures to get
allocated; telling it to do MAXEXTNUM was a bit insane,
resulting in ENOMEM every time.

Chop it down to something reasonable, the number of slots
in the caller's input buffer.  If this is too large the
caller may get ENOMEM but the reason should not be a
mystery, and they can try again with something smaller.

We add 1 to the value because in the normal getbmap
world, bmv_count includes the header and xfs_getbmap does:

        nex = bmv->bmv_count - 1;
        if (nex <= 0)
                return XFS_ERROR(EINVAL);

Yan Zheng 276e680d19 Btrfs: preserve commit_root for async caching
The async block group caching code uses the commit_root pointer
to get a stable version of the extent allocation tree for scanning.
This copy of the tree root isn't going to change and it significantly
reduces the complexity of the scanning code.

During a commit, we have a loop where we update the extent allocation
tree root.  We need to loop because updating the root pointer in
the tree of tree roots may allocate blocks which may change the
extent allocation tree.

Right now the commit_root pointer is changed inside this loop.  It
is more correct to change the commit_root pointer only after all the
looping is done.

Benjamin Marzinski b94a170e96 GFS2: remove dcache entries for remote deleted inodes
When a file is deleted from a gfs2 filesystem on one node, a dcache
entry for it may still exist on other nodes in the cluster. If this
happens, gfs2 will be unable to free this file on disk. Because of this,
it's possible to have a gfs2 filesystem with no files on it and no free
space. With this patch, when a node receives a callback notifying it
that the file is being deleted on another node, it schedules a new
workqueue thread to remove the file's dcache entry.

Since both linked and unlinked inodes are counted by rgd->rd_dinodes, It
makes no sense to count them with the used data blocks (first check that
I changed), it makes sense to count them with the linked inodes (second
check), and it makes no sense to care if there are more unlinked inodes
than linked ones. This fixes these errors.

GFS2 was placing far too many glocks on the reclaim list that were not good
candidates for freeing up from cache.  These locks would sit there and
repeatedly get scanned to see if they could be reclaimed, wasting a lot
of time when there was memory pressure. This fix does more checks on the
locks to see if they are actually likely to be removable from cache.

Benjamin Marzinski a51b56fff3 GFS2: Fix panic in glock memory shrinker
It is possible for gfs2_shrink_glock_memory() to check a glock for
demotion
that's in the process of being freed by gfs2_glock_put().  In this case,
gfs2_shrink_glock_memory() will acquire a new reference to this glock,
and
then try to free the glock itself when it drops the refernce.  To solve
this, gfs2_shrink_glock_memory() just needs to check if the glock is in
the process of being freed, and if so skip it without ever unlocking the
lru_lock.

Benjamin Marzinski 1946f70ab5 GFS2: keep statfs info in sync on grows
GFS2 wasn't syncing its statfs info on grows.  This causes a problem
when you grow the filesystem on multiple nodes.  GFS2 would calculate
the new space based on the resource groups (which are always current),
and then assume that the filesystem had grown the from the existing
statfs size.  If you grew the filesystem on two different nodes in a
short time, the second node wouldn't see the statfs size change from the
first node, and would assume that it was grown by a larger amount than
it was.  When all these changes were synced out, the total fileystem
size would be incorrect (the first grow would be counted twice).

This patch syncs makes GFS2 read in the statfs changes from disk before
a grow, and write them out after the grow, while the master statfs inode
is locked.

Steven Whitehouse 2163b1e616 GFS2: Shrink the shrinker
This patch removes some of the special cases that the shrinker
was trying to deal with. As a result we leave fewer items on
the list and none at all which cannot be demoted. This makes
the list scanning more efficient and solves some issues seen
with large numbers of inodes.

Rusty Russell 1842f23c05 lguest and virtio: cleanup struct definitions to Linux style.
I've been doing this for years, and akpm picked me up on it about 12
months ago.  lguest partly serves as example code, so let's do it Right.

Also, remove two unused fields in struct vblk_info in the example launcher.

Rusty Russell a91d74a3c4 lguest: update commentry
Every so often, after code shuffles, I need to go through and unbitrot
the Lguest Journey (see drivers/lguest/README).  Since we now use RCU in
a simple form in one place I took the opportunity to expand that explanation.

Rusty Russell 2e04ef7691 lguest: fix comment style
I don't really notice it (except to begrudge the extra vertical
space), but Ingo does.  And he pointed out that one excuse of lguest
is as a teaching tool, it should set a good example.
