2008-10-20pty-pts-enable-multipleAlan Cox
Enable multiple instances of devpts From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> To support containers, allow multiple instances of devpts filesystem, such that indices of ptys allocated in one instance are independent of ptys allocated in other instances of devpts. But to preserve backward compatibility, enable this support for multiple instances only if: - CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES is set to Y, and - '-o newinstance' mount option is specified while mounting devpts To use multi-instance mount, a container startup script could: $ ns_exec -cm /bin/bash $ umount /dev/pts $ mount -t devpts -o newinstance lxcpts /dev/pts $ mount -o bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx $ /usr/sbin/sshd -p 1234 where 'ns_exec -cm /bin/bash' is calls clone() with CLONE_NEWNS flag and execs /bin/bash in the child process. A pty created by the sshd is not visible in the original mount of /dev/pts. USER-SPACE-IMPACT: - See Documentation/fs/devpts.txt (included in next patch) for user- space impact in multi-instance and mixed-mode operation. TODO: - Update mount(8), pts(4) man pages. Highlight impact of not redirecting /dev/ptmx to /dev/pts/ptmx after a multi-instance mount. Changelog[v6]: - [Dave Hansen] Use new get_init_pts_sb() interface - [Serge Hallyn] Don't bother displaying 'newinstance' in show_options - [Serge Hallyn] Use macros (PARSE_REMOUNT/PARSE_MOUNT) instead of 0/1. - [Serge Hallyn] Check error return from get_sb_single() (now get_init_pts_sb()) - devpts_pty_kill(): don't dput error dentries Changelog[v5]: - Move get_sb_ref() definition to earlier patch - Move usage info to Documentation/filesystems/devpts.txt (next patch) - Make ptmx node even in init_pts_ns, now that default mode is 0000 (defined in earlier patch, enabled here). - Cache ptmx dentry and use to update mode during remount (defined in earlier patch, enabled here). - Bugfix: explicitly ignore newinstance on remount (if newinstance was specified on remount of initial mount, it would be ignored but /proc/mounts would imply that the option was set) Changelog[v4]: - Update patch description to address H. Peter Anvin's comments - Consolidate multi-instance mode code under new config token, CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCE. - Move usage-details from patch description to Documentation/fs/devpts.txt Changelog[v3]: - Rename new mount option to 'newinstance' - Create ptmx nodes only in 'newinstance' mounts - Bugfix: parse_mount_options() modifies @data but since we need to parse the @data twice (once in devpts_get_sb() and once during do_remount_sb()), parse a local copy of @data in devpts_get_sb(). (restructured code in devpts_get_sb() to fix this) Changelog[v2]: - Support both single-mount and multiple-mount semantics and provide '-onewmnt' option to select the semantics.

Define get_init_pts_sb() From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> See comments in the function header for details. The new interface will be used in a follow-on patch. Changelog [v2]: [Dave Hansen] Replace get_sb_ref() in fs/super.c with get_init_pts_sb() and make the new interface private to devpts Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>
2008-10-20pty-mknod-ptmxAlan Cox
Define mknod_ptmx() From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> /dev/ptmx is closely tied to the devpts filesystem. An open of /dev/ptmx, allocates the next pty index and the associated device shows up in the devpts fs as /dev/pts/n. Wih multiple instancs of devpts filesystem, during an open of /dev/ptmx we would be unable to determine which instance of the devpts is being accessed. So we move the 'ptmx' node into /dev/pts and use the inode of the 'ptmx' node to identify the superblock and hence the devpts instance. This patch adds ability for the kernel to internally create the [ptmx, c, 5:2] device when mounting devpts filesystem. Since the ptmx node in devpts is new and may surprise some userspace scripts, the default permissions for the new node is 0000. These permissions can be changed either using chmod or by remounting with the new '-o ptmxmode=0666' mount option. Changelog[v5]: - [Serge Hallyn bugfix]: Letting new_inode() assign inode number to ptmx can collide with hand-assigning inode numbers to ptys. So, hand-assign specific inode number to ptmx node also. - [Serge Hallyn]: Maybe safer to grab root dentry mutex while creating ptmx node - [Bugfix with Serge Hallyn] Replace lookup_one_len() in mknod_ptmx() wih d_alloc_name() (lookup during ->get_sb() locks up system). To simplify patchset, fold the ptmx_dentry patch into this. Changelog[v4]: - Change default permissions of pts/ptmx node to 0000. - Move code for ptmxmode under #ifdef CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES. Changelog[v3]: - Rename ptmx_mode to ptmxmode (for consistency with 'newinstance') Changelog[v2]: - [H. Peter Anvin] Remove mknod() system call support and create the ptmx node internally. Changelog[v1]: - Earlier version of this patch enabled creating /dev/pts/tty as well. As pointed out by Al Viro and H. Peter Anvin, that is not really necessary.

2008-10-20pty-per-mount-configAlan Cox
Per-mount 'config' object From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> With support for multiple mounts of devpts, the 'config' structure really represents per-mount options rather than config parameters.

2008-10-18[JFFS2] Write buffer offset adjustment for NOR-ECC (Sibley) flashAlexander Belyakov
After choosing new c->nextblock, don't leave the wbuf offset field occasionally pointing at the start of the next physical eraseblock. This was causing a BUG() on NOR-ECC (Sibley) flash, where we start writing after the cleanmarker. Among other this fix should cover write buffer offset adjustment after flushing the last page of an eraseblock.

2008-10-179p: fix device file handlingMagnus Deininger
In v9fs_get_inode(), for block, as well as char devices (in theory), the function init_special_inode() is called to set up callback functions for file ops. this function uses the file mode's value to determine whether to use block or char dev functions. In v9fs_inode_from_fid(), the function p9mode2unixmode() is used, but for all devices it initially returns S_IFBLK, then uses v9fs_get_inode() to initialise a new inode, then finally uses v9fs_stat2inode(), which would determine whether the inode is a block or character device. However, at that point init_special_inode() had already decided to use the block device functions, so even if the inode's mode is turned to a character device, the block functions are still used to operate on them. The attached patch simply calls init_special_inode() again for devices after parsing device node data in v9fs_stat2inode() so that the proper functions are used.
