There are two problems with shutdown in the NBD driver. 1: Receiving the NBD_DISCONNECT ioctl does not sync the filesystem. This patch adds the sync operation into __nbd_ioctl()'s NBD_DISCONNECT handler. This is useful because BLKFLSBUF is restricted to processes that have CAP_SYS_ADMIN, and the NBD client may not possess it (fsync of the block device does not sync the filesystem, either). 2: Once we clear the socket we have no guarantee that later reads will come from the same backing storage. The patch adds calls to kill_bdev() in __nbd_ioctl()'s socket clearing code so the page cache is cleaned, lest reads that hit on the page cache will return stale data from the previously-accessible disk. Example: # qemu-nbd -r -c/dev/nbd0 /dev/sr0 # file -s /dev/nbd0 /dev/stdin: # UDF filesystem data (version 1.5) etc. # qemu-nbd -d /dev/nbd0 # qemu-nbd -r -c/dev/nbd0 /dev/sda # file -s /dev/nbd0 /dev/stdin: # UDF filesystem data (version 1.5) etc. While /dev/sda has: # file -s /dev/sda /dev/sda: x86 boot sector; etc. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Acked-by: NPaul Clements <Paul.Clements@steeleye.com> Cc: Alex Bligh <alex@alex.org.uk> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Currently, the NBD device does not accept flush requests from the Linux block layer. If the NBD server opened the target with neither O_SYNC nor O_DSYNC, however, the device will be effectively backed by a writeback cache. Without issuing flushes properly, operation of the NBD device will not be safe against power losses. The NBD protocol has support for both a cache flush command and a FUA command flag; the server will also pass a flag to note its support for these features. This patch adds support for the cache flush command and flag. In the kernel, we receive the flags via the NBD_SET_FLAGS ioctl, and map NBD_FLAG_SEND_FLUSH to the argument of blk_queue_flush. When the flag is active the block layer will send REQ_FLUSH requests, which we translate to NBD_CMD_FLUSH commands. FUA support is not included in this patch because all free software servers implement it with a full fdatasync; thus it has no advantage over supporting flush only. Because I [Paolo] cannot really benchmark it in a realistic scenario, I cannot tell if it is a good idea or not. It is also not clear if it is valid for an NBD server to support FUA but not flush. The Linux block layer gives a warning for this combination, the NBD protocol documentation says nothing about it. The patch also fixes a small problem in the handling of flags: nbd->flags must be cleared at the end of NBD_DO_IT, but the driver was not doing that. The bug manifests itself as follows. Suppose you two different client/server pairs to start the NBD device. Suppose also that the first client supports NBD_SET_FLAGS, and the first server sends NBD_FLAG_SEND_FLUSH; the second pair instead does neither of these two things. Before this patch, the second invocation of NBD_DO_IT will use a stale value of nbd->flags, and the second server will issue an error every time it receives an NBD_CMD_FLUSH command. This bug is pre-existing, but it becomes much more important after this patch; flush failures make the device pretty much unusable, unlike Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAlex Bligh <alex@alex.org.uk> Acked-by: NPaul Clements <Paul.Clements@steeleye.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The configuration change building ipmi_si into the kernel precludes the use of a custom driver that can utilize more than one KCS interface, multiple IPMBs, and more than one BMC. This capability is important for fault-tolerant systems. Even if the kernel option ipmi_si.trydefaults=0 is specified, ipmi_si discovers and claims one of the KCS interfaces on a Stratus server. The inability to now prevent the kernel from managing this device is a regression from previous kernels. The regression breaks a capability fault-tolerant vendors have relied upon. To support both ACPI opregion access and the need to avoid activation of ipmi_si on some platforms, we've added two new kernel options, ipmi_si.tryacpi and ipmi_si.trydmi be added to prevent ipmi_si from initializing when these options are set to 0 on the kernel command line. With these options at the default value of 1, ipmi_si init proceeds according to the kernel default.

MAX_IDR_MASK is another weirdness in the idr interface. As idr covers whole positive integer range, it's defined as 0x7fffffff or INT_MAX. Its usage in idr_find(), idr_replace() and idr_remove() is bizarre. They basically mask off the sign bit and operate on the rest, so if the caller, by accident, passes in a negative number, the sign bit will be masked off and the remaining part will be used as if that was the input, which is worse than crashing. The constant is visible in idr.h and there are several users in the kernel. * drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c:i2c_add_numbered_adapter() Basically used to test if adap->nr is a negative number which isn't -1 and returns -EINVAL if so. idr_alloc() already has negative @start checking (w/ WARN_ON_ONCE), so this can go away. * drivers/infiniband/core/cm.c:cm_alloc_id() drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/cm.c:id_map_alloc() Used to wrap cyclic @start. Can be replaced with max(next, 0). Note that this type of cyclic allocation using idr is buggy. These are prone to spurious -ENOSPC failure after the first wraparound. * fs/super.c:get_anon_bdev() The ID allocated from ida is masked off before being tested whether it's inside valid range. ida allocated ID can never be a negative number and the masking is unnecessary. Update idr_*() functions to fail with -EINVAL when negative @id is specified and update other MAX_IDR_MASK users as described above. This leaves MAX_IDR_MASK without any user, remove it and relocate other MAX_IDR_* constants to lib/idr.c.
