This patch replaces the dd->int_counter with a percpu counter. The maintanance of qib_stats.sps_ints and int_counter are combined into the new counter. There are two new functions added to read the counter: - qib_int_counter (for a particular qib_devdata) - qib_sps_ints (for all HCAs) A z_int_counter is added to allow the interrupt detection logic to determine if interrupts have occured since z_int_counter was "reset".

The debugfs init code was incorrectly called before the idr mechanism is used to get the unit number, so the dd->unit hasn't been initialized. This caused the unit relative directory creation to fail after the first. This patch moves the init for the debugfs stuff until after all of the failures and after the unit number has been determined. A bug in unwind code in qib_alloc_devdata() is also fixed.

Guard against a potential buffer overrun. Right now the qib driver is protected by the fact that the data structure in question is only 16 bits. Should that ever change the problem will be exposed. There is a similar defect in the ipath driver and this brings the two code paths into sync.

This patch add the support for Ethernet L2 attributes in the verbs/cm/cma structures. When dealing with L2 Ethernet, we should use smac, dmac, vlan ID and priority in a similar manner that the IB L2 (and the L4 PKEY) attributes are used. Thus, those attributes were added to the following structures: * ib_ah_attr - added dmac * ib_qp_attr - added smac and vlan_id, (sl remains vlan priority) * ib_wc - added smac, vlan_id * ib_sa_path_rec - added smac, dmac, vlan_id * cm_av - added smac and vlan_id For the path record structure, extra care was taken to avoid the new fields when packing it into wire format, so we don't break the IB CM and SA wire protocol. On the active side, the CM fills. its internal structures from the path provided by the ULP. We add there taking the ETH L2 attributes and placing them into the CM Address Handle (struct cm_av). On the passive side, the CM fills its internal structures from the WC associated with the REQ message. We add there taking the ETH L2 attributes from the WC. When the HW driver provides the required ETH L2 attributes in the WC, they set the IB_WC_WITH_SMAC and IB_WC_WITH_VLAN flags. The IB core code checks for the presence of these flags, and in their absence does address resolution from the ib_init_ah_from_wc() helper function. ib_modify_qp_is_ok is also updated to consider the link layer. Some parameters are mandatory for Ethernet link layer, while they are irrelevant for IB. Vendor drivers are modified to support the new function signature.

qib_user_sdma_queue_pkts() gets called with mmap_sem held for writing. Except for get_user_pages() deep down in qib_user_sdma_pin_pages() we don't seem to need mmap_sem at all. Even more interestingly the function qib_user_sdma_queue_pkts() (and also qib_user_sdma_coalesce() called somewhat later) call copy_from_user() which can hit a page fault and we deadlock on trying to get mmap_sem when handling that fault. So just make qib_user_sdma_pin_pages() use get_user_pages_fast() and leave mmap_sem locking for mm. This deadlock has actually been observed in the wild when the node is under memory pressure.

Adjacent packets will use user buffer pages smartly to avoid pinning the same page multiple times. 2. Instead of discarding all the work when SDMA queue is full, the work is saved in a pending queue. Whenever there are enough SDMA queue free entries, pending queue is directly put onto SDMA queue. 3. An interrupt handler is used to progress this pending queue.

The driver currently selects a HCA based on the algorithm that PSM chooses, contexts within a HCA or across. The HCA can also be chosen by the user. Either way, this patch assigns a CPU on the NUMA node local to the selected HCA. This patch also tries to select the HCA closest to the NUMA node of the CPU assigned via taskset to PSM process. If this HCA is unusable then another unit is selected based on the algorithm that is currently enforced or selected by PSM - round robin context selection 'within' or 'across' HCA's. Fixed a bug wherein contexts are setup on the NUMA node on which the processes are opened (setup_ctxt()) and not on the NUMA node that the driver recommends the CPU on.

由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于
Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.
