      [media] dvb_frontend: fix race condition in stopping/starting frontend · 2d196931
      由 Devin Heitmueller 提交于 
      Attached is a patch which addresses a race condition in the DVB core
related to closing/reopening the DVB frontend device in quick
succession.  This is the reason that devices such as the HVR-1300,
HVR-3000, and HVR-4000 have been failing to scan properly under MythTV
and w_scan.

The gory details of the race are described in the patch.

Devin

There is a race condition exhibited when channel scanners such as w_scan and
MythTV quickly close and then reopen the frontend device node.

Under normal conditions, the behavior is as follows:

1.  Application closes the device node
2.  DVB frontend ioctl calls dvb_frontend_release which sets
    fepriv->release_jiffies
3.  DVB frontend thread *eventually* calls dvb_frontend_is_exiting() which
    compares fepriv->release_jiffies, and shuts down the thread if timeout has
    expired
4.  Thread goes away
5.  Application opens frontend device
6.  DVB frontend ioctl() calls ts_bus_ctrl(1)
7.  DVB frontend ioctl() creates new frontend thread, which calls
    dvb_frontend_init(), which has demod driver init() routine setup initial
    register state for demod chip.
8.  Tuning request is issued.

The race occurs when the application in step 5 performs the new open() call
before the frontend thread is shutdown.  In this case the ts_bus_ctrl() call
is made, which strobes the RESET pin on the demodulator, but the
dvb_frontend_init() function never gets called because the frontend thread
hasn't gone away yet.  As a result, the initial register config for the demod
is *never* setup, causing subsequent tuning requests to fail.

If there is time between the close and open (enough for the dvb frontend
thread to be torn down), then in that case the new frontend thread is created
and thus the dvb_frontend_init() function does get called.

The fix is to set the flag which forces reinitialization if we did in fact
call ts_bus_ctrl().

This problem has been seen on the HVR-1300, HVR-3000, and HVR-4000, and is
likely occuring on other designs as well where ts_bus_ctrl() actually strobes
the reset pin on the demodulator.

Note that this patch should supercede any patches submitted for the
1300/3000/4000 which remove the code that removes GPIO code in
cx8802_dvb_advise_acquire(), which have been circulating by users for some
time now...

      dvb-core: kill the big kernel lock · 72024f1e
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      The dvb core only uses the big kernel lock in the open
and ioctl functions, which means it can be replaced with
a dvb specific mutex. Fortunately, all the ioctl functions
go through dvb_usercopy, so we can move the serialization
in there.

      llseek: automatically add .llseek fop · 6038f373
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

  - fepriv->thread = NULL; and fepriv->exit = 0;
 - dvb_unregister_frontend wait on "fepriv->dvbdev->wait_queue" that fepriv->dvbdev->users==-1.
The user finish :
 - dvb_frontend_release - set users to -1
 - don't wait wait_queue because fepriv->exit != 1

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
