I have that patch in my stack but didn't send it; for some reason I
thought it was already changed in your git tree.

Argh, sorry about that... when I fixed these a long time ago they somehow
never got included in the quilt patches.  I mistakenly assumed the quilt

ba7f72901c [GFS2] Remove page.[ch]
The remaining routines in page.c were all only used in one other
file, so they are now moved into the files where they are referenced

f25ef0c1b4 [GFS2] Tidy gfs2_unstuffer_page
Tidy up gfs2_unstuffer_page by:

 a) Moving it into bmap.c
 b) Making it static
 c) Calling it directly from gfs2_unstuff_dinode
 d) Updating all callers of gfs2_unstuff_dinode due to one less
    required argument.

It doesn't change the behaviour at all.

a9e5f4d078 [GFS2] Alter direct I/O path
As per comments received, alter the GFS2 direct I/O path so that
it uses the standard read functions "out of the box". Needs a
small change to one of the VFS functions. This reduces the size

Some more work remains to be done, but this is the bones of the

6d76fa58b0 Don't allow chmod() on the /proc/<pid>/ files
This just turns off chmod() on the /proc/<pid>/ files, since there is no
good reason to allow it, and had we disallowed it originally, the nasty
/proc race exploit wouldn't have been possible.

The other patches already fixed the problem chmod() could cause, so this
is really just some final mop-up..

This particular version is based off a patch by Eugene and Marcel which
had much better naming than my original equivalent one.

On systems with block devices containing a slash (virtual dasd, cciss,
etc), reiserfs will fail to initialize /proc/fs/reiserfs/<dev> due to it
being interpreted as a subdirectory.  The generic block device code changes

de45921535 [PATCH] struct file leakage
2.6.16 leaks like hell. While testing, I found massive leakage
(reproduced in openvz) in:

*filp
*size-4096

And 1 object leaks in
*size-32
*size-64
*size-128

It is the fix for the first one.  filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c.

Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables.

I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying
another leaks.  Some debugging structs?

232ba9dbd6 [PATCH] lockdep: annotate the sysfs i_mutex to be a separate class
sysfs has a different i_mutex lock order behavior for i_mutex than the
other filesystems; sysfs i_mutex is called in many places with subsystem
locks held.  At the same time, many of the VFS locking rules do not apply

mess (which gives false positives in lockdep), we're giving sysfs inodes
their own class for i_mutex.

4340fe6253 [GFS2] Add generation number
This adds a generation number for the eventual use of NFS to the
ondisk inode. Its backward compatible with the current code since
it doesn't really matter what the generation number is to start with,
and indeed since its set to zero, due to it being taken from padding
in both the inode and rgrp header, it should be fine.

The eventual plan is to use this rather than no_formal_ino in the
NFS filehandles. At that point no_formal_ino will be unused.

At the same time we also add a releasepages call back to the
"normal" address space for gfs2 inodes. Also I've removed a
one-linrer function thats not required any more.

 (*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're

 (*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting
     the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise
     them back together.

 (*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was
     actually allocated for the stack.

 (*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will
     not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future.

21ff821630 [PATCH] NOMMU: Fix execution off of ramfs with mmap()
Fix execution through the FDPIC binfmt of programs stored on ramfs by
preventing the ramfs mmap() returning successfully on a private mapping of
a ramfs file.  This causes NOMMU mmap to make a copy of the mapped portion
of the file and map that instead.

This could be improved by granting direct mapping access to read-only
private mappings for which the data is stored on a contiguous run of pages.
 However, this is only likely to be the case if the file was extended with
truncate before being written.

ramfs is left to map the file directly for shared mappings so that SYSV IPC
and POSIX shared memory both still work.

b6174df5ee [PATCH] mmap zero-length hugetlb file with PROT_NONE to protect a hugetlb virtual area
Sometimes, applications need below call to be successful although
"/mnt/hugepages/file1" doesn't exist.

fd = open("/mnt/hugepages/file1", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0755);
*addr = mmap(NULL, 0x1024*1024*256, PROT_NONE, 0, fd, 0);

As for regular pages (or files), above call does work, but as for huge
pages, above call would fail because hugetlbfs_file_mmap would fail if
(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE) && len > inode->i_size).

This capability on huge page is useful on ia64 when the process wants to
protect one area on region 4, so other threads couldn't read/write this
area.  A famous JVM (Java Virtual Machine) implementation on IA64 needs the
capability.

25e206b54b [PATCH] partitions: let partitions inherit policy from disk
Change the partition code in fs/partitions/check.c to initialize a newly
detected partition's policy field with that of the containing block device
(see patch below).

My reasoning is that function set_disk_ro() in block/genhd.c modifies the
policy field (read-only indicator) of a disk and all contained partitions.
When a partition is detected after the call to set_disk_ro(), the policy
field of this partition will currently not inherit the disk's policy field.
 This behavior poses a problem in cases where a block device can be
'logically de- and reactivated' like e.g.  the s390 DASD driver because
partition detection may run after the policy field has been modified.

73ce5934e2 [PATCH] reiserfs: fix journaling issue regarding fsync()
When write() extends a file(i_size is increased) and fsync() is called,
change of inode must be written to journaling area through fsync().
But,currently the i_trans_id is not correctly updated when i_size is
increased.  So fsync() does not kick the journal writer.

Reiserfs_file_write() already updates the transaction when blocks are
allocated, but the case when i_size increases and new blocks are not added
is not correctly treated.

Following patch fix this bug.
