      dm target: remove struct tt_internal · 45194e4f
      Cheng Renquan 提交于
      The tt_internal is really just a list_head to manage registered target_type
      in a double linked list,
      
      Here embed the list_head into target_type directly,
      1. to avoid kmalloc/kfree;
      2. then tt_internal is really unneeded;

      dm table: fix upgrade mode race · 570b9d96
      Alasdair G Kergon 提交于
      upgrade_mode() sets bdev to NULL temporarily, and does not have any
      locking to exclude anything from seeing that NULL.
      
      In dm_table_any_congested() bdev_get_queue() can dereference that NULL and
      cause a reported oops.
      
      Fix this by not changing that field during the mode upgrade.

      Fix refcount corruption in dm-path-selector

      dm target: use module refcount directly · 5642b8a6
      Cheng Renquan 提交于
      The tt_internal's 'use' field is superfluous: the module's refcount can do
      the work properly.  An acceptable side-effect is that this increases the
      reference counts reported by 'lsmod'.
      
      Remove the superfluous test when removing a target module.

      dm snapshot: avoid having two exceptions for the same chunk · 35bf659b
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      We need to check if the exception was completed after dropping the lock.
      
      After regaining the lock, __find_pending_exception checks if the exception
      was already placed into &s->pending hash.
      
      But we don't check if the exception was already completed and placed into
      &s->complete hash. If the process waiting in alloc_pending_exception was
      delayed at this point because of a scheduling latency and the exception
      was meanwhile completed, we'd miss that and allocate another pending
      exception for already completed chunk.
      
      It would lead to a situation where two records for the same chunk exist
      and potential data corruption because multiple snapshot I/Os to the
      affected chunk could be redirected to different locations in the
      snapshot.

      It is uncommon and bug-prone to drop a lock in a function that is called with
      the lock held, so this is moved to the caller.

      dm io: make sync_io uninterruptible · b64b6bf4
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      If someone sends signal to a process performing synchronous dm-io call,
      the kernel may crash.
      
      The function sync_io attempts to exit with -EINTR if it has pending signal,
      however the structure "io" is allocated on stack, so already submitted io
      requests end up touching unallocated stack space and corrupting kernel memory.
      
      sync_io sets its state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, so the signal can't break out
      of io_schedule() --- however, if the signal was pending before sync_io entered
      while (1) loop, the corruption of kernel memory will happen.
      
      There is no way to cancel in-progress IOs, so the best solution is to ignore
      signals at this point.

      dm raid1: switch read_record from kmalloc to slab to save memory · 95f8fac8
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      With my previous patch to save bi_io_vec, the size of dm_raid1_read_record
      is significantly increased (the vector list takes 3072 bytes on 32-bit machines
      and 4096 bytes on 64-bit machines).
      
      The structure dm_raid1_read_record used to be allocated with kmalloc,
      but kmalloc aligns the size on the next power-of-two so an object
      slightly greater than 4096 will allocate 8192 bytes of memory and half of
      that memory will be wasted.
      
      This patch turns kmalloc into a slab cache which doesn't have this
      padding so it will reduce the memory consumed.

      dm: preserve bi_io_vec when resubmitting bios · a920f6b3
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Device mapper saves and restores various fields in the bio, but it doesn't save
      bi_io_vec.  If the device driver modifies this after a partially successful
      request, dm-raid1 and dm-multipath may attempt to resubmit a bio that has
      bi_size inconsistent with the size of vector.
      
      To make requests resubmittable in dm-raid1 and dm-multipath, we must save
      and restore the bio vector as well.
      
      To reduce the memory overhead involved in this, we do not save the pages in a
      vector and use a 16-bit field size if the page size is less than 65536.
