7135a71 aoe: allocate unused request_queue for sysfs Andy Whitcroft reported an oops in aoe triggered by use of an incorrectly initialised request_queue object: [ 2645.959090] kobject '<NULL>' (ffff880059ca22c0): tried to add an uninitialized object, something is seriously wrong.

Bruno bisected this regression down to cd43e26f071524647e660706b784ebcbefbd2e44 block: Expose stacked device queues in sysfs "This seems to generate /sys/block/$device/queue and its contents for everyone who is using queues, not just for those queues that have a non-NULL queue->request_fn." Addresses http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410198 Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13942 Note that embedding a queue inside another object has always been an illegal construct, since the queues are reference counted and must persist until the last reference is dropped.

e6890f6 i915: disable interrupts before tearing down GEM state Reinette Chatre reports a frozen system (with blinking keyboard LEDs) when switching from graphics mode to the text console, or when suspending (which does the same thing). With netconsole, the oops turned out to be BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000084 IP: [<ffffffffa03ecaab>] i915_driver_irq_handler+0x26b/0xd20 [i915] and it's due to the i915_gem.c code doing drm_irq_uninstall() after having done i915_gem_idle(). And the i915_gem_idle() path will do i915_gem_idle() -> i915_gem_cleanup_ringbuffer() -> i915_gem_cleanup_hws() -> dev_priv->hw_status_page = NULL; but if an i915 interrupt comes in after this stage, it may want to access that hw_status_page, and gets the above NULL pointer dereference. And since the NULL pointer dereference happens from within an interrupt, and with the screen still in graphics mode, the common end result is simply a silently hung machine. Fix it by simply uninstalling the irq handler before idling rather than after.

ac89a91 pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside 'pty_write()' The whole write-room thing is something that is up to the _caller_ to worry about, not the pty layer itself. The total buffer space will still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size somehow. And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes as two single-byte writes. And if the first byte written (CR) then caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.

37f81fa n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as two tty_put_char() calls. Which works, but is stupid, and has caused problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic. The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example. Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc: "pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic"). So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write instead. That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test, which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering, it won't cause weeks of debugging.

a2a8474 exec: do not sleep in TASK_TRACED under ->cred_guard_mutex Tom Horsley reports that his debugger hangs when it tries to read /proc/pid_of_tracee/maps, this happens since "mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec" 04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d commit in 2.6.31. But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC. The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(), another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the tracee resumes. With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and we do not hold it throughout, instead: - introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred. - install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(), and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop(). or, if exec fails, free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

dd5d241 page-allocator: always change pageblock ownership when anti-fragmentation is disabled On low-memory systems, anti-fragmentation gets disabled as fragmentation cannot be avoided on a sufficiently large boundary to be worthwhile. Once disabled, there is a period of time when all the pageblocks are marked MOVABLE and the expectation is that they get marked UNMOVABLE at each call to __rmqueue_fallback(). However, when MAX_ORDER is large the pageblocks do not change ownership because the normal criteria are not met. This has the effect of prematurely breaking up too many large contiguous blocks. This is most serious on NOMMU systems which depend on high-order allocations to boot. This patch causes pageblocks to change ownership on every fallback when anti-fragmentation is disabled. This prevents the large blocks being prematurely broken up. This is a fix to commit 49255c619fbd482d704289b5eb2795f8e3b7ff2e [page allocator: move check for disabled anti-fragmentation out of fastpath] and the problem affects 2.6.31-rc8.

4e49627 workqueues: introduce __cancel_delayed_work() cancel_delayed_work() has to use del_timer_sync() to guarantee the timer function is not running after return. But most users doesn't actually need this, and del_timer_sync() has problems: it is not useable from interrupt, and it depends on every lock which could be taken from irq. Introduce __cancel_delayed_work() which calls del_timer() instead. The immediate reason for this patch is http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13757 but hopefully this helper makes sense anyway. As for 13757 bug, actually we need requeue_delayed_work(), but its semantics are not yet clear. Merge this patch early to resolves cross-tree interdependencies between input and infiniband.

fc38379 firewire: ohci: fix Agere FW643 and multiple cameras An Agere FW643 OHCI 1.1 card works fine for video reception from one camera but fails early if receiving from two cameras. After a short while, no IR IRQ events occur and the context control register does not react anymore. This happens regardless whether both IR DMA contexts are dual-buffer or one is dual-buffer and the other packet-per-buffer. This can be worked around by disabling dual buffer DMA mode entirely. http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=4A7C0594.2020208%40gmail.com (Reported by Samuel Audet.) In another report (by Jonathan Cameron), an FW643 works OK with two cameras in dual buffer mode. Whether this is due to different chip revisions or different usage patterns (different video formats) is not yet clear. However, as far as the current capabilities of firewire-core's isochronous I/O interface are concerned, simply switching off dual-buffer on non-working and working FW643s alike is not a problem in practice. We only need to revisit this issue if we are going to enhance the interface, e.g. so that applications can explicitly choose modes.

ae0b744 dm snapshot: fix on disk chunk size validation Fix some problems seen in the chunk size processing when activating a pre-existing snapshot. For a new snapshot, the chunk size can either be supplied by the creator or a default value can be used. For an existing snapshot, the chunk size in the snapshot header on disk should always be used. If someone attempts to load an existing snapshot and has the 'default chunk size' option set, the kernel uses its default value even when it is incorrect for the snapshot being loaded. This patch ensures the correct on-disk value is always used. Secondly, when the code does use the chunk size stored on the disk it is prudent to revalidate it, so the code can exit cleanly if it got corrupted as happened in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506 .

61578dc dm snapshot: fix header corruption race on invalidation If a persistent snapshot fills up, a race can corrupt the on-disk header which causes a crash on any future attempt to activate the snapshot (typically while booting). This patch fixes the race. When the snapshot overflows, __invalidate_snapshot is called, which calls snapshot store method drop_snapshot. It goes to persistent_drop_snapshot that calls write_header. write_header constructs the new header in the "area" location. Concurrently, an existing kcopyd job may finish, call copy_callback and commit_exception method, that goes to persistent_commit_exception. persistent_commit_exception doesn't do locking, relying on the fact that callbacks are single-threaded, but it can race with snapshot invalidation and overwrite the header that is just being written while the snapshot is being invalidated. The result of this race is a corrupted header being written that can lead to a crash on further reactivation (if chunk_size is zero in the corrupted header). The fix is to use separate memory areas for each.

7ec23d5 dm log: userspace add luid to distinguish between concurrent log instances Device-mapper userspace logs (like the clustered log) are identified by a universally unique identifier (UUID). This identifier is used to associate requests from the kernel to a specific log in userspace. The UUID must be unique everywhere, since multiple machines may use this identifier when communicating about a particular log, as is the case for cluster logs. Sometimes, device-mapper/LVM may re-use a UUID. This is the case during pvmoves, when moving from one segment of an LV to another, or when resizing a mirror, etc. In these cases, a new log is created with the same UUID and loaded in the "inactive" slot. When a device-mapper "resume" is issued, the "live" table is deactivated and the new "inactive" table becomes "live". (The "inactive" table can also be removed via a device-mapper 'clear' command.) The above two issues were colliding. More than one log was being created with the same UUID, and there was no way to distinguish between them. So, sometimes the wrong log would be swapped out during the exchange. The solution is to create a locally unique identifier, 'luid', to go along with the UUID. This new identifier is used to determine exactly which log is being referenced by the kernel when the log exchange is made. The identifier is not universally safe, but it does not need to be, since create/destroy/suspend/resume operations are bound to a specific machine; and these are the operations that make up the exchange.

d2b6986 dm raid1: do not allow log_failure variable to unset after being set This patch fixes a bug which was triggering a case where the primary leg could not be changed on failure even when the mirror was in-sync. The case involves the failure of the primary device along with the transient failure of the log device. The problem is that bios can be put on the 'failures' list (due to log failure) before 'fail_mirror' is called due to the primary device failure. Normally, this is fine, but if the log device failure is transient, a subsequent iteration of the work thread, 'do_mirror', will reset 'log_failure'. The 'do_failures' function then resets the 'in_sync' variable when processing bios on the failures list. The 'in_sync' variable is what is used to determine if the primary device can be switched in the event of a failure. Since this has been reset, the primary device is incorrectly assumed to be not switchable. The case has been seen in the cluster mirror context, where one machine realizes the log device is dead before the other machines. As the responsibilities of the server migrate from one node to another (because the mirror is being reconfigured due to the failure), the new server may think for a moment that the log device is fine - thus resetting the 'log_failure' variable. In any case, it is inappropiate for us to reset the 'log_failure' variable. The above bug simply illustrates that it can actually hurt us.

b8313b6 dm log: remove incorrect field from userspace table output The output of 'dmsetup table' includes an internal field that should not be there. This patch removes it. To make the fix simpler, we first reorder a constructor argument The 'device size' argument is generated internally. Currently it is placed as the last space-separated word of the constructor string. However, we need to use a version of the string without this word, so we move it to the beginning instead so it is trivial to skip past it. We keep a copy of the arguments passed to userspace for creating a log, just in case we need to resend them. These are the same arguments that are desired in the STATUSTYPE_TABLE request, except for one. When creating the userspace log, the userspace daemon must know the size of the mirror, so that is added to the arguments given in the constructor table. We were printing this extra argument out as well, which is a mistake.

f6a1ed1 dm table: fix queue_limit checking device iterator The logic to check for valid device areas is inverted relative to proper use with iterate_devices. The iterate_devices method calls its callback for every underlying device in the target. If any callback returns non-zero, iterate_devices exits immediately. But the callback device_area_is_valid() returns 0 on error and 1 on success. The overall effect without is that an error is issued only if every device is invalid. This patch renames device_area_is_valid to device_area_is_invalid and inverts the logic so that one invalid device is sufficient to raise an error.

a77e28c dm multipath: fix oops when request based io fails when no paths The patch posted at http://marc.info/?l=dm-devel&m=124539787228784&w=2 which was merged into cec47e3d4a861e1d942b3a580d0bbef2700d2bb2 ("dm: prepare for request based option") introduced a regression in request-based dm. If map_request() calls dm_kill_unmapped_request() to complete a cloned bio without dispatching it, clone->bio is still set when dm_end_request() is called and the BUG_ON(clone->bio) is incorrect. The patch fixes this bug by freeing bio in dm_end_request() if the clone has bio. I've redone my tests to cover all I/O paths and confirmed there's no other regression.

e6617c6 sparc64: Kill spurious NMI watchdog triggers by increasing limit to 30 seconds. This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present. This happens when, for example: CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to load the firmware, then waiting for completion. CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts. CPU 1 is where the NMI watchdog triggers. CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU 1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending. This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds. The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the barrage of device interrupts begin. Then we have: timer interrupt return for softirq checking pending, thus enable interrupts qla2xxx interrupt return qla2xxx interrupt return ... 5+ seconds pass final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load return run timer softirq return At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler. The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer interrupts. However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged. But in the above scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last all the way back to running the timer softirq. The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds). So increase it to 30 seconds for now. Signed-off-by: David S.

But in some cases sk_free() is called earlier, usually after other alloc errors. Fix is to move sk_wmem_alloc initialization from sock_init_data() to sk_alloc() itself.

c295fc0 block: Allow changing max_sectors_kb above the default 512 The patch "block: Use accessor functions for queue limits" (ae03bf639a5027d27270123f5f6e3ee6a412781d) changed queue_max_sectors_store() to use blk_queue_max_sectors() instead of directly assigning the value. But blk_queue_max_sectors() differs a bit 1. It sets both max_sectors_kb, and max_hw_sectors_kb 2. Never allows one to change max_sectors_kb above BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS. If one specifies a value greater then max_hw_sectors is set to that value but max_sectors is set to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS I am not sure whether blk_queue_max_sectors() should be changed, as it seems to be that way for a long time. And there may be callers dependent on that behaviour. This patch simply reverts to the older way of directly assigning the value to max_sectors as it was before.

ce6c399 [CPUFREQ] Re-enable cpufreq suspend and resume code Commit 4bc5d3413503 is broken and causes regressions: (1) cpufreq_driver->resume() and ->suspend() were only called on __powerpc__, but you could set them on all architectures. In fact, ->resume() was defined and used before the PPC-related commit 42d4dc3f4e1e complained about in 4bc5d3413503. (2) Therfore, the resume functions in acpi_cpufreq and speedstep-smi would never be called. (3) This means speedstep-smi would be unusuable after suspend or resume. The _real_ problem was calling cpufreq_driver->get() with interrupts off, but it re-enabling interrupts on some platforms. Why is ->get() necessary? Some systems like to change the CPU frequency behind our back, especially during BIOS-intensive operations like suspend or resume. If such systems also use a CPU frequency-dependant timing loop, delays might be off by large factors. Therefore, we need to ascertain as soon as possible that the CPU frequency is indeed at the speed we think it is. You can do this two ways: either setting it anew, or trying to get it. The latter is what was done, the former also has the same IRQ issue. So, let's try something different: defer the checking to after interrupts are re-enabled, by calling cpufreq_update_policy() (via schedule_work()). Timings may be off until this later stage, so let's watch out for resume regressions caused by the deferred handling of frequency changes behind the kernel's back.

60c3be3 ata_piix: parallel scanning on PATA needs an extra locking Commit log for commit 517d3cc15b36392e518abab6bacbb72089658313 ("[libata] ata_piix: Enable parallel scan") says: This patch turns on parallel scanning for the ata_piix driver. This driver is used on most netbooks (no AHCI for cheap storage it seems). The scan is the dominating time factor in the kernel boot for these devices; with this flag it gets cut in half for the device I used for testing (eeepc). Alan took a look at the driver source and concluded that it ought to be safe to do for this driver. Alan has also checked with the hardware team. and it is all true but once we put all things together additional constraints for PATA controllers show up (some hardware registers have per-host not per-port atomicity) and we risk misprogramming the controller. I used the following test to check whether the issue is real: @@ -736,8 +736,20 @@ static void piix_set_piomode(struct ata_ (timings[pio][1] << 8); } pci_write_config_word(dev, master_port, master_data); - if (is_slave) + if (is_slave) { + if (ap->port_no == 0) { + u8 tmp = slave_data; + + while (slave_data == tmp) { + pci_read_config_byte(dev, slave_port, &tmp); + msleep(50); + } + + dev_printk(KERN_ERR, &dev->dev, "PATA parallel scan " + "race detected\n"); + } pci_write_config_byte(dev, slave_port, slave_data); + } /* Ensure the UDMA bit is off - it will be turned back on if UDMA is selected */ and it indeed triggered the error message. Lets fix all such races by adding an extra locking to ->set_piomode and ->set_dmamode methods for PATA controllers.

6faf17f PCI SR-IOV: correct broken resource alignment calculations An SR-IOV capable device includes an SR-IOV PCIe capability which describes the Virtual Function (VF) BAR requirements. A typical SR-IOV device can support multiple VFs whose BARs must be in a contiguous region, effectively an array of VF BARs. The BAR reports the size requirement for a single VF. We calculate the full range needed by simply multiplying the VF BAR size with the number of possible VFs and create a resource spanning the full range. This all seems sane enough except it artificially inflates the alignment requirement for the VF BAR. The VF BAR need only be aligned to the size of a single BAR not the contiguous range of VF BARs. This can cause us to fail to allocate resources for the BAR despite the fact that we actually have enough space. This patch adds a thin PCI specific layer over the generic resource_alignment() function which is aware of the special nature of VF BARs and does sorting and allocation based on the smaller alignment requirement. I recognize that while resource_alignment is generic, it's basically a PCI helper. An alternative to this patch is to add PCI VF BAR specific information to struct resource. I opted for the extra layer rather than adding such PCI specific information to struct resource. This does have the slight downside that we don't cache the BAR size and re-read for each alignment query (happens a small handful of times during boot for each VF BAR).
