2012-07-21Merge branch 'anton-kgdb' (kgdb dmesg fixups)Linus Torvalds
Merge emailed kgdb dmesg fixups patches from Anton Vorontsov: "The dmesg command appears to be broken after the printk rework. The old logic in the kdb code makes no sense in terms of current printk/logging storage format, and KDB simply hangs forever upon entering 'dmesg' command. The first patch revives the command by switching to kmsg_dumper iterator. As a side-effect, the code is now much more simpler. A few changes were needed in the printk.c: we needed unlocked variant of the kmsg_dumper iterator, but these can surely wait for 3.6. It's probably too late even for the first patch to go to 3.5, but I'll try to convince otherwise. :-) Here we go: - The current code is broken for sure, and has no hope to work at all. It is a regression - The new code works for me, and probably works for everyone else; - If it compiles (and I urge everyone to compile-test it on your setup), it hardly can make things worse." * Merge emailed patches from Anton Vorontsov: (4 commits) kdb: Switch to nolock variants of kmsg_dump functions printk: Implement some unlocked kmsg_dump functions printk: Remove kdb_syslog_data kdb: Revive dmesg command
2012-07-21printk: Implement some unlocked kmsg_dump functionsAnton Vorontsov
If used from KDB, the locked variants are prone to deadlocks (suppose we got to the debugger w/ the logbuf lock held). So, we have to implement a few routines that grab no logbuf lock. Yet we don't need these functions in modules, so we don't export them. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <anton.vorontsov@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-07-18Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans()Linus Torvalds
Commit a7a20d103994 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain") make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async domain. However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes the global async space, not all of them). Which in turn meant that "wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be parsed. And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on for mounting the root filesystem. Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd. So the root filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all. And then before they actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans(). [ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken, but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d0137 ("fix async probe regression"), so that same commit a7a20d103994 had actually broken setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ] Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call into wait_for_device_probe(). Everybody who wants to wait for device probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's no reason not to do this. So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and properly waits for device probing to finish. This also removes the now unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

2012-07-17libceph: fix messenger retrySage Weil
In ancient times, the messenger could both initiate and accept connections. An artifact if that was data structures to store/process an incoming ceph_msg_connect request and send an outgoing ceph_msg_connect_reply. Sadly, the negotiation code was referencing those structures and ignoring important information (like the peer's connect_seq) from the correct ones. Among other things, this fixes tight reconnect loops where the server sends RETRY_SESSION and we (the client) retries with the same connect_seq as last time. This bug pretty easily triggered by injecting socket failures on the MDS and running some fs workload like workunits/direct_io/test_sync_io. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@inktank.com>

2012-07-17PM: Rename CAP_EPOLLWAKEUP to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPENDMichael Kerrisk
As discussed in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1249726/focus=1288990, the capability introduced in 4d7e30d98939a0340022ccd49325a3d70f7e0238 to govern EPOLLWAKEUP seems misnamed: this capability is about governing the ability to suspend the system, not using a particular API flag (EPOLLWAKEUP). We should make the name of the capability more general to encourage reuse in related cases. (Whether or not this capability should also be used to govern the use of /sys/power/wake_lock is a question that needs to be separately resolved.) This patch renames the capability to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND. In order to ensure that the old capability name doesn't make it out into the wild, could you please apply and push up the tree to ensure that it is incorporated for the 3.5 release.

2012-07-11mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor sectionYinghai Lu
After commit f5bf18fa22f8 ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if there is space available in that section. This results in unnecessary hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the section holding the usemap. The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a much higher address absent an upper limit.

2012-07-11memory hotplug: fix invalid memory access caused by stale kswapd pointerJiang Liu
kswapd_stop() is called to destroy the kswapd work thread when all memory of a NUMA node has been offlined. But kswapd_stop() only terminates the work thread without resetting NODE_DATA(nid)->kswapd to NULL. The stale pointer will prevent kswapd_run() from creating a new work thread when adding memory to the memory-less NUMA node again. Eventually the stale pointer may cause invalid memory access. An example stack dump as below. It's reproduced with 2.6.32, but latest kernel has the same issue.

To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt().

clock_was_set() cannot be called from hard interrupt context because it calls on_each_cpu(). For fixing the widely reported leap seconds issue it is necessary to call it from hard interrupt context, i.e. the timer tick code, which does the timekeeping updates. Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base structure of the cpu on which it is called and raise the hrtimer softirq. We then execute the clock_was_set() notificiation from softirq context in run_hrtimer_softirq(). The hrtimer softirq is rarely used, so polling the flag there is not a performance issue.

2012-07-10PCI: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computersAlan Stern
Quite a few ASUS computers experience a nasty problem, related to the EHCI controllers, when going into system suspend. It was observed that the problem didn't occur if the controllers were not put into the D3 power state before starting the suspend, and commit 151b61284776be2d6f02d48c23c3625678960b97 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers) was created to do this. It turned out this approach messed up other computers that didn't have the problem -- it prevented USB wakeup from working. Consequently commit c2fb8a3fa25513de8fedb38509b1f15a5bbee47b (USB: add NO_D3_DURING_SLEEP flag and revert 151b61284776be2) was merged; it reverted the earlier commit and added a whitelist of known good board names. Now we know the actual cause of the problem. Thanks to AceLan Kao for tracking it down. According to him, an engineer at ASUS explained that some of their BIOSes contain a bug that was added in an attempt to work around a problem in early versions of Windows. When the computer goes into S3 suspend, the BIOS tries to verify that the EHCI controllers were first quiesced by the OS. Nothing's wrong with this, but the BIOS does it by checking that the PCI COMMAND registers contain 0 without checking the controllers' power state. If the register isn't 0, the BIOS assumes the controller needs to be quiesced and tries to do so. This involves making various MMIO accesses to the controller, which don't work very well if the controller is already in D3. The end result is a system hang or memory corruption. Since the value in the PCI COMMAND register doesn't matter once the controller has been suspended, and since the value will be restored anyway when the controller is resumed, we can work around the BIOS bug simply by setting the register to 0 during system suspend. This patch (as1590) does so and also reverts the second commit mentioned above, which is now unnecessary. In theory we could do this for every PCI device. However to avoid introducing new problems, the patch restricts itself to EHCI host controllers. Finally the affected systems can suspend with USB wakeup working properly.

fill_result_tf() grabs the taskfile flags from the originating qc which sas_ata_qc_fill_rtf() promptly overwrites. The presence of an ata_taskfile in the sata_device makes it tempting to just copy the full contents in sas_ata_qc_fill_rtf(). However, libata really only wants the fis contents and expects the other portions of the taskfile to not be touched by ->qc_fill_rtf. To that end store a fis buffer in the sata_device and use ata_tf_from_fis() like every other ->qc_fill_rtf() implementation.

Ocfs2 uses kiocb.*private as a flag of unsigned long size. In commit a11f7e6 ocfs2: serialize unaligned aio, the unaligned io flag is involved in it to serialize the unaligned aio. As *private is not initialized in init_sync_kiocb() of do_sync_write(), this unaligned io flag may be unexpectly set in an aligned dio. And this will cause OCFS2_I(inode)->ip_unaligned_aio decreased to -1 in ocfs2_dio_end_io(), thus the following unaligned dio will hang forever at ocfs2_aiodio_wait() in ocfs2_file_aio_write().

When inbound messages arrive, rpmsg core looks up their associated endpoint (by destination address) and then invokes their callback. We've made sure that endpoints will never be de-allocated after they were found by rpmsg core, but we also need to protect against the (rare) scenario where the rpmsg driver was just removed, and its callback function isn't available anymore. This is achieved by introducing a callback mutex, which must be taken before the callback is invoked, and, obviously, before it is removed.

If a message arrives while its endpoint is being removed (because the rpmsg driver was removed, or a recovery of a remote processor has kicked in) we must ensure atomicity, i.e.: - Either the ept is removed before it is found or - The ept is found but will not be freed until the callback returns This is achieved by maintaining a per-ept reference count, which, when drops to zero, will trigger deallocation of the ept. With this in hand, it is now forbidden to directly deallocate epts once they have been added to the endpoints idr.

2012-06-30sctp: be more restrictive in transport selection on bundled sacksNeil Horman
It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC 2960: An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK, etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks together with the reply chunk. This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings us into stricter compliance with the RFC. Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to enable/disable it.

2012-06-25bug.h: Fix up CONFIG_BUG=n implicit function declarations.Paul Mundt
Commit 2603efa31a03 ("bug.h: Fix up powerpc build regression") corrected the powerpc build case and extended the __ASSEMBLY__ guards, but it also got caught in pre-processor hell accidentally matching the else case of CONFIG_BUG resulting in the BUG disabled case tripping up on -Werror=implicit-function-declaration. It's not possible to __ASSEMBLY__ guard the entire file as architecture code needs to get at the BUGFLAG_WARNING definition in the GENERIC_BUG case, but the rest of the CONFIG_BUG=y/n case needs to be guarded. Rather than littering endless __ASSEMBLY__ checks in each of the if/else cases we just move the BUGFLAG definitions up under their own GENERIC_BUG test and then shove everything else under one big __ASSEMBLY__ guard. Build tested on all of x86 CONFIG_BUG=y, CONFIG_BUG=n, powerpc (due to it's dependence on BUGFLAG definitions in assembly code), and sh (due to not bringing in linux/kernel.h to satisfy the taint flag definitions used by the generic bug code). Hopefully that's the end of the corner cases and I can abstain from ever having to touch this infernal header ever again.
