A couple of HDIO IOCTLs are not yet handled and a few others are marked
as using a pointer rather than an unsigned long. The formers include:
HDIO_GET_WCACHE, HDIO_GET_ACOUSTIC, HDIO_GET_ADDRESS and
HDIO_GET_BUSSTATE. The latters are: HDIO_SET_MULTCOUNT,
HDIO_SET_UNMASKINTR, HDIO_SET_KEEPSETTINGS, HDIO_SET_32BIT,
HDIO_SET_NOWERR, HDIO_SET_DMA, HDIO_SET_PIO_MODE and HDIO_SET_NICE.
Additionally 0x330 used to be HDIO_GETGEO_BIG and may be issued by 32-bit
`hdparm' run on a 64-bit kernel making Linux complain loudly.
This is a fix for these issues.

Current error behaviour for ext2 and ext3 filesystems does not fully
correspond to the documentation and should be fixed.
According to man 8 mount, ext2 and ext3 file systems allow to set one of 3
different on-errors behaviours:
---- start of quote man 8 mount ----
errors=continue / errors=remount-ro / errors=panic
Define the behaviour when an error is encountered. (Either ignore
errors and just mark the file system erroneous and continue, or remount
the file system read-only, or panic and halt the system.) The default is
set in the filesystem superblock, and can be changed using tune2fs(8).
---- end of quote ----
However EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE is not read from the superblock, and thus
ERRORS_CONT is not saved on the sbi->s_mount_opt. It leads to the incorrect
handle of errors on ext3.
Then we've checked corresponding code in ext2 and discovered that it is buggy
as well:
- EXT2_ERRORS_CONTINUE is not read from the superblock (the same);
- parse_option() does not clean the alternative values and thus something
like (ERRORS_CONT|ERRORS_RO) can be set;
- if options are omitted, parse_option() does not set any of these options.
Therefore it is possible to set any combination of these options on the ext2:
- none of them may be set: EXT2_ERRORS_CONTINUE on superblock / empty mount
options;
- any of them may be set using mount options;
- 2 any options may be set: by using EXT2_ERRORS_RO/EXT2_ERRORS_PANIC on the
superblock and other value in mount options;
- and finally all three options may be set by adding third option in remount.
Currently ext2 uses these values only in ext2_error() and it is not leading to
any noticeable troubles. However somebody may be discouraged when he will try
to workaround EXT2_ERRORS_PANIC on the superblock by using errors=continue in
mount options.
This patch:
EXT2_ERRORS_CONTINUE should be read from the superblock as default value for
error behaviour. parse_option() should clean the alternative options and
should not change default value taken from the superblock.

If grow_buffers() is for some reason passed a block number which wants to lie
outside the maximum-addressable pagecache range (PAGE_SIZE * 4G bytes) then it
will accidentally truncate `index' and will then instnatiate a page at the
wrong pagecache offset. This causes __getblk_slow() to go into an infinite
loop.
This can happen with corrupted disks, or with software errors elsewhere.
Detect that, and handle it.

Implement the epoll_pwait system call, that extend the event wait mechanism
with the same logic ppoll and pselect do. The definition of epoll_pwait
is:
int epoll_pwait(int epfd, struct epoll_event *events, int maxevents,
int timeout, const sigset_t *sigmask, size_t sigsetsize);
The difference between the vanilla epoll_wait and epoll_pwait is that the
latter allows the caller to specify a signal mask to be set while waiting
for events. Hence epoll_pwait will wait until either one monitored event,
or an unmasked signal happen. If sigmask is NULL, the epoll_pwait system
call will act exactly like epoll_wait. For the POSIX definition of
pselect, information is available here:

With CONFIG_LBD=n, sector_div() expands to a plain old divide. But ext4 is
_not_ passing in a sector_t as the first argument, so...
fs/built-in.o: In function `ext4_get_group_no_and_offset':
fs/ext4/balloc.c:39: undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
fs/ext4/balloc.c:41: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/built-in.o: In function `find_group_orlov':
fs/ext4/ialloc.c:278: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/built-in.o: In function `ext4_fill_super':
fs/ext4/super.c:1488: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/ext4/super.c:1488: undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
fs/ext4/super.c:1594: undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
fs/ext4/super.c:1601: undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
Fix that up by calling do_div() directly.
Also cast the arg to u64. do_div() is only defined on u64, and ext4_fsblk_t
is supposed to be opaque.
Note especially the changes to find_group_orlov(). It was attempting to do
do_div(int, unsigned long long);
which is royally screwed up. Switched it to plain old divide.

Previously when in-kernel ext4 block type is sector_t, it's only 4 bits long
under some 32bit arch (when CONFIG_LBD is not on). So we need to check the
size of sector_t before we read 48bit long on-disk blocks to in-kernel blocks.
These checks are unnecessary now as we changed the in-kernel blocks to
unsigned longlong.

As we are planning to support 48-bit block numbers for ext4, we need to
support 48-bit block numbers for extended attributes. In the short term, we
can do this by reuse (on-disk) 16-bit padding (linux2.i_pad1 currently used
only by "hurd") as high order bits for xattr. This patch basically does that.

commit fe1668ae5bf0145014c71797febd9ad5670d5d05 causes kernel to oops with
libhugetlbfs test suite. The problem is that hugetlb pages can be shared
by multiple mappings. Multiple threads can fight over page->lru in the
unmap path and bad things happen. We now serialize __unmap_hugepage_range
to void concurrent linked list manipulation. Such serialization is also
needed for shared page table page on hugetlb area. This patch will fixed
the bug and also serve as a prepatch for shared page table.

This patch moves code out of fs/xattr.c:listxattr into a new function -
vfs_listxattr. The code for vfs_listxattr was originally submitted by Bill
Nottingham <notting@redhat.com> to Unionfs.
Sorry about that. The reason for this submission is to make the
listxattr code in fs/xattr.c a little cleaner (as well as to clean up
some code in Unionfs.)
Currently, Unionfs has vfs_listxattr defined in its code. I think
that's very ugly, and I'd like to see it (re)moved. The logical place
to put it, is along side of all the other vfs_*xattr functions.
Overall, I think this patch is benefitial for both kernel.org kernel and
Unionfs.
