2013-02-26fs: change return values from -EACCES to -EPERMZhao Hongjiang
According to SUSv3: [EACCES] Permission denied. An attempt was made to access a file in a way forbidden by its file access permissions. [EPERM] Operation not permitted. An attempt was made to perform an operation limited to processes with appropriate privileges or to the owner of a file or other resource. So -EPERM should be returned if capability checks fails. Strictly speaking this is an API change since the error code user sees is altered.

2013-02-26ocfs2/dlm: use GFP_ATOMIC inside a spin_lockDan Carpenter
My static checker complains that this is called with a spin_lock held in dlm_master_requery_handler() from dlmrecovery.c. Probably the reason we have not received any bug reports about this is that recovery is not a common operation.

2013-02-26ocfs2: fix possible use-after-free with AIOJan Kara
Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference. Once AIO is completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can be freed from memory. So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete() is the last thing we do with the inode.

2013-02-26vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry opJeff Layton
The following set of operations on a NFS client and server will cause server# mkdir a client# cd a server# mv a a.bak client# sleep 30 # (or whatever the dir attrcache timeout is) client# stat . stat: cannot stat `.': Stale NFS file handle Obviously, we should not be getting an ESTALE error back there since the inode still exists on the server. The problem is that the lookup code will call d_revalidate on the dentry that "." refers to, because NFS has FS_REVAL_DOT set. nfs_lookup_revalidate will see that the parent directory has changed and will try to reverify the dentry by redoing a LOOKUP. That of course fails, so the lookup code returns ESTALE. The problem here is that d_revalidate is really a bad fit for this case. What we really want to know at this point is whether the inode is still good or not, but we don't really care what name it goes by or whether the dcache is still valid. Add a new d_op->d_weak_revalidate operation and have complete_walk call that instead of d_revalidate. The intent there is to allow for a "weaker" d_revalidate that just checks to see whether the inode is still good. This is also gives us an opportunity to kill off the FS_REVAL_DOT special casing.

2013-02-22fs: Preserve error code in get_empty_filp(), part 2Anatol Pomozov
Allocating a file structure in function get_empty_filp() might fail because of several reasons: - not enough memory for file structures - operation is not allowed - user is over its limit Currently the function returns NULL in all cases and we loose the exact reason of the error. All callers of get_empty_filp() assume that the function can fail with ENFILE only. Return error through pointer. Change all callers to preserve this error code.

The ia64 function "thread_matches()" has no users since commit e868a55c2a8c ("[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()"). Remove it. This allows us to make ptrace_check_attach() static to kernel/ptrace.c, which is good since we'll need to change the semantics of it and fix up all the callers.
