2013-07-089P: Add cancelled() to the transport functions.Simon Derr
RDMA needs to post a buffer for each incoming reply. Hence it needs to keep count of these and needs to be aware of whether a flushed request has received a reply or not. This patch adds the cancelled() callback to the transport modules. It is called when RFLUSH has been received and that the corresponding request will never receive a reply.

2013-07-089P/RDMA: count posted buffers without a pending requestSimon Derr
In rdma_request(): If an error occurs between posting the recv and the send, there will be a reply context posted without a pending request. Since there is no way to "un-post" it, we remember it and skip post_recv() for the next request. Signed-off-by: Simon Derr <simon.derr@bull.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2013-07-089P/RDMA: Improve error handling in rdma_requestSimon Derr
Most importantly: - do not free the recv context (rpl_context) after a successful post_recv() - but do free the send context (c) after a failed send. Signed-off-by: Simon Derr <simon.derr@bull.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2013-07-089P/RDMA: Do not free req->rc in error handling in rdma_request()Simon Derr
rdma_request() should never be in charge of freeing rc. When an error occurs: * Either the rc buffer has been recv_post()'ed. then kfree()'ing it certainly is a bad idea. * Or is has not, and in that case req->rc still points to it, hence it needs not be freed.

2013-07-089P/RDMA: Use a semaphore to protect the RQSimon Derr
The current code keeps track of the number of buffers posted in the RQ, and will prevent it from overflowing. But it does so by simply dropping post requests (And leaking memory in the process). When this happens there will actually be too few buffers posted, and soon the 9P server will complain about 'RNR retry counter exceeded' errors. Instead, use a semaphore, and block until the RQ is ready for another buffer to be posted. Signed-off-by: Simon Derr <simon.derr@bull.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2013-07-089P/RDMA: Protect against duplicate repliesSimon Derr
A well-behaved server would not send twice the reply to a request. But if it ever happens... This additional check prevents the kernel from leaking memory and possibly more nasty consequences in that unlikely event.

2013-07-089P: Fix fcall allocation for rdmaSimon Derr
The current code assumes that when a request in the request array does have a tc, it also has a rc. This is normally true, but not always : when using RDMA, req->rc will temporarily be set to NULL after the request has been sent. That is usually OK though, as when the reply arrives, req->rc will be reassigned to a sane value before the request is recycled. But there is a catch : if the request is flushed, the reply will never arrive, and req->rc will be NULL, but not req->tc. This patch fixes p9_tag_alloc to take this into account.

2013-07-08fs/9p: xattr: add trusted and security namespacesJim Garlick
Allow requests for security.* and trusted.* xattr name spaces to pass through to server. The new files are 99% cut and paste from fs/9p/xattr_user.c with the namespaces changed. It has the intended effect in superficial testing. I do not know much detail about how these namespaces are used, but passing them through to the server, which can decide whether to handle them or not, seems reasonable. I want to support a use case where an ext4 file system is mounted via 9P, then re-exported via samba to windows clients in a cluster. Windows wants to store xattrs such as security.NTACL. This works when ext4 directly backs samba, but not when 9P is inserted.

2013-04-26efivars: only check for duplicates on the registered listMatt Fleming
variable_is_present() accesses '__efivars' directly, but when called via gsmi_init() Michel reports observing the following crash, BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: variable_is_present+0x55/0x170 Call Trace: register_efivars+0x106/0x370 gsmi_init+0x2ad/0x3da do_one_initcall+0x3f/0x170 The reason for the crash is that '__efivars' hasn't been initialised nor has it been registered with register_efivars() by the time the google EFI SMI driver runs. The gsmi code uses its own struct efivars, and therefore, a different variable list. Fix the above crash by passing the registered struct efivars to variable_is_present(), so that we traverse the correct list.

Well, 'w', the utility to find out logged users and their inactivity time broke. It shows that users are inactive since the time they logged in.

2013-04-25parisc: use spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore for PTE updatesJohn David Anglin
User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although there is more work to be done. One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now identical. The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in cache.c to improve its efficiency.

2013-04-25parisc: disable -mlong-calls compiler option for kernel modulesHelge Deller
CONFIG_MLONGCALLS was introduced in commit ec758f98328da3eb933a25dc7a2eed01ef44d849 to overcome linker issues when linking huge linux kernels, e.g. with many modules linked in. But in the kernel module loader there is no support yet for the new relocation types, which is why modules built with -mlong-calls can't be loaded. Furthermore, for modules long calls are not really necessary, since we already use stub sections which resolve long distance calls. So, let's just disable this compiler option when compiling kernel modules. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
2013-04-25parisc: uaccess: fix compiler warnings caused by __put_user castingWill Deacon
When targetting 32-bit processors, __put_user emits a pair of stw instructions for the 8-byte case. If the type of __val is a pointer, the marshalling code casts it to the wider integer type of u64, resulting in the following compiler warnings: kernel/signal.c: In function 'copy_siginfo_to_user': kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast] kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast] [...] This patch fixes the warnings by removing the marshalling code and using the correct output modifiers in the __put_{user,kernel}_asm64 macros so that GCC will allocate the right registers without the need to extract the two words explicitly.

We need to check the runtime sys_table for the EFI version the firmware specifies instead of just checking for a NULL QueryVariableInfo. Older implementations of EFI don't have QueryVariableInfo but the runtime is a smaller structure, so the pointer to it may be pointing off into garbage.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull kdump fixes from Peter Anvin: "The kexec/kdump people have found several problems with the support for loading over 4 GiB that was introduced in this merge cycle. This is partly due to a number of design problems inherent in the way the various pieces of kdump fit together (it is pretty horrifically manual in many places.) After a *lot* of iterations this is the patchset that was agreed upon, but of course it is now very late in the cycle. However, because it changes both the syntax and semantics of the crashkernel option, it would be desirable to avoid a stable release with the broken interfaces." I'm not happy with the timing, since originally the plan was to release the final 3.9 tomorrow. But apparently I'm doing an -rc8 instead... * 'x86-kdump-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: kexec: use Crash kernel for Crash kernel low x86, kdump: Change crashkernel_high/low= to crashkernel=,high/low x86, kdump: Retore crashkernel= to allocate under 896M x86, kdump: Set crashkernel_low automatically

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin: "Three groups of fixes: 1. Make sure we don't execute the early microcode patching if family < 6, since it would touch MSRs which don't exist on those families, causing crashes. 2. The Xen partial emulation of HyperV can be dealt with more gracefully than just disabling the driver. 3. More EFI variable space magic. In particular, variables hidden from runtime code need to be taken into account too." * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86, microcode: Verify the family before dispatching microcode patching x86, hyperv: Handle Xen emulation of Hyper-V more gracefully x86,efi: Implement efi_no_storage_paranoia parameter efi: Export efi_query_variable_store() for efivars.ko x86/Kconfig: Make EFI select UCS2_STRING efi: Distinguish between "remaining space" and actually used space efi: Pass boot services variable info to runtime code Move utf16 functions to kernel core and rename x86,efi: Check max_size only if it is non-zero. x86, efivars: firmware bug workarounds should be in platform code
