[PATCH] [1/11] Remove BKL from remote_llseek v2

[Andi Kleen]

- Replace remote_llseek with generic_file_llseek_unlocked (to force compilation 
failures in all users)
- Change all users to either use generic_file_llseek_unlocked directly or 
take the BKL around. I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL
for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS
take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now.

I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification
is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who 
modify it without BKL.

Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks? 

Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now
until his full audit.

v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked
    and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch)

[PATCH] [2/11] Add unlocked_fasync

[Andi Kleen]

Add a new fops entry point to allow fasync without BKL. While it's arguably
unclear this entry point is called often enough for it really matters
it was still relatively easy to do. And there are far less async users
in the tree than ioctls so it's likely they can be all converted 
eventually and then the non unlocked async entry point could be dropped.

There was still the problem of the actual flags change being
protected against other setters of flags. Instead of using BKL
for this use the i_mutex now.

I also added a mutex_lock against one other flags change
that was lockless and could potentially lose updates.

There are a couple of potential problems I added comments about on.

I (again) really don't like having another entry point for this...
it'll stay around forever rather than doing this as one step and 
move on.

Yes the goal is for it staying around forever, correct. And ->fasync()
will go instead.

Advantage is that out of tree drivers will be compile broken which I
consider an advantage. Yes I know Linus said earlier that's not
important to him, but in this case my standards are higher than his.

Also BTW if you're that worried about the audit not getting
finished then the result would be just that lots of lock_kernel()s
would stay around. Hardly better.

But cannot do that many drivers in one step.

My goal is to just audit the remaining ones and then remove ->fasync()
and unlocked_fasync stays. Will be hopefully not that far away, since
fasync is relatively easy. The conversions are mostly for me to keep
track which ones I audited.

I'd say it's just different standards.
My concern is that the new API as long lived is ugly and not the right
thing. I assume Linus and others have similar concerns, and weigh that
over the "some obscure out of tree driver might break".

What do you find ugly exactly? The prefix "unlocked_" ? Other than
that there is no difference.

Duplicated entry points are not great, but they will be going away.

Agreed entirely - all our unlocked_foo methods we got stuck with, all our
push down everyone cases we got most cases promptly fixed and the other
lock/unlocks show up clearly in grep and help embarass the
maintainer/author 8)

That's the goal actually to "get stuck with it" and ->fasync going
away.

so is that BKL must be held by the caller or this function
holds the BKL?

Re: [PATCH] [2/11] Add unlocked_fasync

[Jonathan Corbet]

I guess my one concern with this mirrors what other people have said:
might not it be better to just push the BKL down into the fasync()
implementations and avoid adding yet another file operation?  A quick
grep shows 43 drivers defining fasync() functions - and many of those
use the same one.  fs/ has a few more.  Obnoxious but doable, unless
there's something I'm missing?

Thanks,

jon

See my reply to Arjan.  While for complicated stuff pushing down first
is better, fasync is not that complicated and I think my strategy
with the new entry point, with the old one going away is better in this
case.
