Change the EDAC internal representation to work with non-csrow
based memory controllers.
There are lots of those memory controllers nowadays, and more
are coming. So, the EDAC internal representation needs to be
changed, in order to work with those memory controllers, while
preserving backward compatibility with the old ones.
The edac core was written with the idea that memory controllers
are able to directly access csrows.
This is not true for FB-DIMM and RAMBUS memory controllers.
Also, some recent advanced memory controllers don't present a per-csrows
view. Instead, they view memories as DIMMs, instead of ranks.
So, change the allocation and error report routines to allow
them to work with all types of architectures.
This will allow the removal of several hacks with FB-DIMM and RAMBUS
memory controllers.
Also, several tests were done on different platforms using different
x86 drivers.
TODO: a multi-rank DIMMs are currently represented by multiple DIMM
entries in struct dimm_info. That means that changing a label for one
rank won't change the same label for the other ranks at the same DIMM.
This bug is present since the beginning of the EDAC, so it is not a big
deal. However, on several drivers, it is possible to fix this issue, but
it should be a per-driver fix, as the csrow => DIMM arrangement may not
be equal for all. So, don't try to fix it here yet.
I tried to make this patch as short as possible, preceding it with
several other patches that simplified the logic here. Yet, as the
internal API changes, all drivers need changes. The changes are
generally bigger in the drivers for FB-DIMMs.

The edac core were written with the idea that memory controllers
are able to directly access csrows, and that the channels are
used inside a csrows select.
This is not true for FB-DIMM and RAMBUS memory controllers.
Also, some recent advanced memory controllers don't present a per-csrows
view. Instead, they view memories as DIMMs, instead of ranks, accessed
via csrow/channel.
So, changes are needed in order to allow the EDAC core to
work with all types of architectures.
In preparation for handling non-csrows based memory controllers,
add some memory structs and a macro:
enum hw_event_mc_err_type: describes the type of error
(corrected, uncorrected, fatal)
To be used by the new edac_mc_handle_error function;
enum edac_mc_layer: describes the type of a given memory
architecture layer (branch, channel, slot, csrow).
struct edac_mc_layer: describes the properties of a memory
layer (type, size, and if the layer
will be used on a virtual csrow.
EDAC_DIMM_PTR() - as the number of layers can vary from 1 to 3,
this macro converts from an address with up to 3 layers into
a linear address.

The edac_align_ptr() function is used to prepare data for a single
memory allocation kzalloc() call. It counts how many bytes are needed
by some data structure.
Using it as-is is not that trivial, as the quantity of memory elements
reserved is not there, but, instead, it is on a next call.
In order to avoid mistakes when using it, move the number of allocated
elements into it, making easier to use it.

The number of pages is a dimm property. Move it to the dimm struct.
After this change, it is possible to add sysfs nodes for the DIMM's that
will properly represent the DIMM stick properties, including its size.
A TODO fix here is to properly represent dual-rank/quad-rank DIMMs when
the memory controller represents the memory via chip select rows.

Almost all edac drivers initialize csrow_info->first_page,
csrow_info->last_page and csrow_info->page_mask. Those vars are
used inside the EDAC core, in order to calculate the csrow affected
by an error, by using the routine edac_mc_find_csrow_by_page().
However, very few drivers actually use it:
e752x_edac.c
e7xxx_edac.c
i3000_edac.c
i82443bxgx_edac.c
i82860_edac.c
i82875p_edac.c
i82975x_edac.c
r82600_edac.c
There also a few other drivers that have their own calculus
formula internally using those vars.
All the others are just wasting time by initializing those
data.
While initializing data without using them won't cause any troubles, as
those information is stored at the wrong place (at csrows structure), it
is better to remove what is unused, in order to simplify the next patch.

On systems based on chip select rows, all channels need to use memories
with the same properties, otherwise the memories on channels A and B
won't be recognized.
However, such assumption is not true for all types of memory
controllers.
Controllers for FB-DIMM's don't have such requirements.
Also, modern Intel controllers seem to be capable of handling such
differences.
So, we need to get rid of storing the DIMM information into a per-csrow
data, storing it, instead at the right place.
The first step is to move grain, mtype, dtype and edac_mode to the
per-dimm struct.

The way a DIMM is currently represented implies that they're
linked into a per-csrow struct. However, some drivers don't see
csrows, as they're ridden behind some chip like the AMB's
on FBDIMM's, for example.
This forced drivers to fake^Wvirtualize a csrow struct, and to create
a mess under csrow/channel original's concept.
Move the DIMM labels into a per-DIMM struct, and add there
the real location of the socket, in terms of csrow/channel.
Latter patches will modify the location to properly represent the
memory architecture.
All other drivers will use a per-csrow type of location.
Some of those drivers will require a latter conversion, as
they also fake the csrows internally.
TODO: While this patch doesn't change the existing behavior, on
csrows-based memory controllers, a csrow/channel pair points to a memory
rank. There's a known bug at the EDAC core that allows having different
labels for the same DIMM, if it has more than one rank. A latter patch
is need to merge the several ranks for a DIMM into the same dimm_info
struct, in order to avoid having different labels for the same DIMM.
The edac_mc_alloc() will now contain a per-dimm initialization loop that
will be changed by latter patches in order to match other types of
memory architectures.

Pull x86 linker bug workarounds from Peter Anvin.
GNU ld-2.22.52.0.[12] (*) has an unfortunate bug where it incorrectly
turns certain relocation entries absolute. Section-relative symbols
that are part of otherwise empty sections are silently changed them to
absolute. We rely on section-relative symbols staying section-relative,
and actually have several sections in the linker script solely for this
purpose.
See for example
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14052
We could just black-list the buggy linker, but it appears that it got
shipped in at least F17, and possibly other distros too, so it's sadly
not some rare unusual case.
This backports the workaround from the x86/trampoline branch, and as
Peter says: "This is not a minimal fix, not at all, but it is a tested
code base."

Occasionally, testing memcg's move_charge_at_immigrate on rc7 shows
a flurry of hundreds of warnings at kernel/res_counter.c:96, where
res_counter_uncharge_locked() does WARN_ON(counter->usage < val).
The first trace of each flurry implicates __mem_cgroup_cancel_charge()
of mc.precharge, and an audit of mc.precharge handling points to
mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range()'s THP handling in commit 12724850e806
("memcg: avoid THP split in task migration").
Checking !mc.precharge is good everywhere else, when a single page is to
be charged; but here the "mc.precharge -= HPAGE_PMD_NR" likely to
follow, is liable to result in underflow (a lot can change since the
precharge was estimated).
Simply check against HPAGE_PMD_NR: there's probably a better
alternative, trying precharge for more, splitting if unsuccessful; but
this one-liner is safer for now - no kernel/res_counter.c:96 warnings
seen in 26 hours.

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.
In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.
16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.
The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.

dm thin: fix table output when pool target disables discard passdown internally
|

When the thin pool target clears the discard_passdown parameter
internally, it incorrectly changes the table line reported to userspace.
This breaks dumb string comparisons on these table lines in generic
userspace device-mapper library code and leads to tables being reloaded
repeatedly when nothing is actually meant to be changing.
This patch corrects this by no longer changing the table line when
discard passdown was disabled.
We can still tell when discard passdown is overridden by looking for the
message "Discard unsupported by data device (sdX): Disabling discard passdown."
This automatic detection is also moved from the 'load' to the 'resume'
so that it is re-evaluated should the properties of underlying devices
change.

Instead of doing the i_mode calculations at proc_fd_instantiate() time,
move them into tid_fd_revalidate(), which is where the other inode state
(notably uid/gid information) is updated too.
Otherwise we'll end up with stale i_mode information if an fd is re-used
while the dentry still hangs around. Not that anything really *cares*
(symlink permissions don't really matter), but Tetsuo Handa noticed that
the owner read/write bits don't always match the state of the
readability of the file descriptor, and we _used_ to get this right a
long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Besides, aside from fixing an ugly detail (that has apparently been this
way since commit 61a28784028e: "proc: Remove the hard coded inode
numbers" in 2006), this removes more lines of code than it adds. And it
just makes sense to update i_mode in the same place we update i_uid/gid.
Al Viro correctly points out that we could just do the inode fill in the
inode iops ->getattr() function instead. However, that does require
somewhat slightly more invasive changes, and adds yet *another* lookup
of the file descriptor. We need to do the revalidate() for other
reasons anyway, and have the file descriptor handy, so we might as well
fill in the information at this point.

Some discussion with the glibc mailing lists revealed that this was
necessary for 64-bit platforms with MIPS-like sign-extension rules
for 32-bit values. The original symptom was that passing (uid_t)-1 to
setreuid() was failing in programs linked -pthread because of the "setxid"
mechanism for passing setxid-type function arguments to the syscall code.
SYSCALL_WRAPPERS handles ensuring that all syscall arguments end up with
proper sign-extension and is thus the appropriate fix for this problem.
On other platforms (s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips) this was fixed
in 2.6.28.6. The general issue is tracked as CVE-2009-0029.

Commit 41101809a865 ("fork: Provide weak arch_release_[task_struct|
thread_info] functions") in -tip highlights a problem in the frv arch,
where it has needles prototypes for alloc_task_struct_node and
free_task_struct. This now shows up as:
kernel/fork.c:120:66: error: static declaration of 'alloc_task_struct_node' follows non-static declaration
kernel/fork.c:127:51: error: static declaration of 'free_task_struct' follows non-static declaration
since that commit turned them into real functions. Since arch/frv does
does not define define __HAVE_ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ALLOCATOR (i.e. it just
uses the generic ones) it shouldn't list these at all.

======================================================

-------------------------------------------------------
bash/1556 is trying to acquire lock:
(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#8){+.+.+.}, at: do_lookup+0x267/0x2b1
but task is already holding lock:
(&sig->cred_guard_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: prepare_bprm_creds+0x2d/0x69
which lock already depends on the new lock.

This is because prepare_bprm_creds grabs task->signal->cred_guard_mutex
and when do_lookup happens we try to grab task->signal->cred_guard_mutex
again in lock_trace.
Fix it using plain ptrace_may_access() helper in proc_map_files_lookup()
and in proc_map_files_readdir() instead of lock_trace(), the caller must
be CAP_SYS_ADMIN granted anyway.

The reset date of the ST Micro version of PL031 is 2000-01-01. The
correct weekday for 2000-01-01 is saturday, but pl031 is initialized to
sunday. This may lead to alarm malfunction, so configure the correct
wday if RTC_DR indicates reset.

Pull two networking fixes from David S. Miller:
1) Thanks to Willy Tarreau and Eric Dumazet, we've unlocked a bug that's
been present in do_tcp_sendpages() since that function was written in
2002.
When we block to wait for memory we have to unconditionally try and
push out pending TCP data, otherwise we can block for an unreasonably
long amount of time.
2) Fix deadlock in e1000, fixes kernel bugzilla 43132
From Tushar Dave.

Commit 1cc0c998fdf2 ("ACPI: Fix D3hot v D3cold confusion") introduced a
bug in __acpi_bus_set_power() and changed the behavior of
acpi_pci_set_power_state() in such a way that it generally doesn't work
as expected if PCI_D3hot is passed to it as the second argument.
First off, if ACPI_STATE_D3 (equal to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD) is passed to
__acpi_bus_set_power() and the explicit_set flag is set for the D3cold
state, the function will try to execute AML method called "_PS4", which
doesn't exist.
Fix this by adding a check to ensure that the name of the AML method
to execute for transitions to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD is correct in
__acpi_bus_set_power(). Also make sure that the explicit_set flag
for ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD will be set if _PS3 is present and modify
acpi_power_transition() to avoid accessing power resources for
ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD, because they don't exist.
Second, if PCI_D3hot is passed to acpi_pci_set_power_state() as the
target state, the function will request a transition to
ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT instead of ACPI_STATE_D3. However,
ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT is now only marked as supported if the _PR3 AML
method is defined for the given device, which is rare. This causes
problems to happen on systems where devices were successfully put
into ACPI D3 by pci_set_power_state(PCI_D3hot) which doesn't work
now. In particular, some unused graphics adapters are not turned
off as a result.
To fix this issue restore the old behavior of
acpi_pci_set_power_state(), which is to request a transition to
ACPI_STATE_D3 (equal to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD) if either PCI_D3hot or
PCI_D3cold is passed to it as the argument.
This approach is not ideal, because generally power should not
be removed from devices if PCI_D3hot is the target power state,
but since this behavior is relied on, we have no choice but to
restore it at the moment and spend more time on designing a
better solution in the future.

Since recent changes on TCP splicing (starting with commits 2f533844
"tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets" and 35f9c09f "tcp:
tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once"), I started seeing
massive stalls when forwarding traffic between two sockets using
splice() when pipe buffers were larger than socket buffers.
Latest changes (net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb()) made the
problem even more apparent.
The reason seems to be that if do_tcp_sendpages() fails on out of memory
condition without being able to send at least one byte, tcp_push() is not
called and the buffers cannot be flushed.
After applying the attached patch, I cannot reproduce the stalls at all
and the data rate it perfectly stable and steady under any condition
which previously caused the problem to be permanent.
The issue seems to have been there since before the kernel migrated to
git, which makes me think that the stalls I occasionally experienced
with tux during stress-tests years ago were probably related to the
same issue.
This issue was first encountered on 3.0.31 and 3.2.17, so please backport
to -stable.

Pull two more target-core updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"The first patch addresses a SPC-2 reservations RELEASE bug in a
special (iscsi specific) multi-ISID setup case that was allowing the
same initiator to be able to incorrect release it's own reservation on
a different SCSI path with enforce_pr_isid=1 operation. This bug was
caught by Bernhard Kohl.
The second patch is to address a bug with FILEIO backends where the
incorrect number of blocks for READ_CAPACITY was being reported after
an underlying device-mapper block_device size change. This patch uses
now i_size_read() in fd_get_blocks() for FILEIO backends with an
underlying block_device, instead of trying to determine this value at
setup time during fd_create_virtdevice(). (hch CC'ed)
Both are CC'ed to stable."
* '3.4-urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending:
target: Fix bug in handling of FILEIO + block_device resize ops
target: Fix SPC-2 RELEASE bug for multi-session iSCSI client setups
|
|
This patch fixes a bug in the handling of FILEIO w/ underlying block_device
resize operations where the original fd_dev->fd_dev_size was incorrectly being
used in fd_get_blocks() for READ_CAPACITY response payloads.
This patch avoids using fd_dev->fd_dev_size for FILEIO devices with
an underlying block_device, and instead changes fd_get_blocks() to
get the sector count directly from i_size_read() as recommended by hch.
