      powerpc: Reduce footprint of irq_stat · 8c007bfd
      Anton Blanchard 提交于
      PowerPC is currently using asm-generic/hardirq.h which statically allocates an
      NR_CPUS irq_stat array. Switch to an arch specific implementation which uses
      per cpu data:
      
      On a kernel with NR_CPUS=1024, this saves quite a lot of memory:
      
         text    data     bss      dec         hex    filename

      A saving of around 128kB.

      powerpc/eeh: Fix a bug when pci structure is null · 8d3d50bf
      Breno Leitao 提交于
      During a EEH recover, the pci_dev structure can be null, mainly if an
      eeh event is detected during cpi config operation. In this case, the
      pci_dev will not be known (and will be null) the kernel will crash
      with the following message:

      dm mpath: fix stall when requeueing io · 9eef87da
      Kiyoshi Ueda 提交于
      This patch fixes the problem that system may stall if target's ->map_rq
      returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE in map_request().
      E.g. stall happens on 1 CPU box when a dm-mpath device with queue_if_no_path
           bounces between all-paths-down and paths-up on I/O load.
      
      When target's ->map_rq returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE, map_request() requeues
      the request and returns to dm_request_fn().  Then, dm_request_fn()
      doesn't exit the I/O dispatching loop and continues processing
      the requeued request again.
      This map and requeue loop can be done with interrupt disabled,
      so 1 CPU system can be stalled if this situation happens.
      
      For example, commands below can stall my 1 CPU box within 1 minute or so:
        # dmsetup table mp
        mp: 0 2097152 multipath 1 queue_if_no_path 0 1 1 service-time 0 1 2 8:144 1 1
        # while true; do dd if=/dev/mapper/mp of=/dev/null bs=1M count=100; done &
        # while true; do \
        > dmsetup message mp 0 "fail_path 8:144" \
        > dmsetup suspend --noflush mp \
        > dmsetup resume mp \
        > dmsetup message mp 0 "reinstate_path 8:144" \
        > done
      
      To fix the problem above, this patch changes dm_request_fn() to exit
      the I/O dispatching loop once if a request is requeued in map_request().

      dm raid1: fix null pointer dereference in suspend · 558569aa
      Takahiro Yasui 提交于
      When suspending a failed mirror, bios are completed by mirror_end_io() and
      __rh_lookup() in dm_rh_dec() returns NULL where a non-NULL return value is
      required by design.  Fix this by not changing the state of the recovery failed

      Analysis
      
      When recovery process of a region failed, dm_rh_recovery_end() function
      changes the state of the region from RM_RH_RECOVERING to DM_RH_NOSYNC.
      When recovery_complete() is executed between dm_rh_update_states() and
      dm_writes() in do_mirror(), bios are processed with the region state,
      DM_RH_NOSYNC. However, the region data is freed without checking its
      pending count when dm_rh_update_states() is called next time.
      
      When bios are finished by mirror_end_io(), __rh_lookup() in dm_rh_dec()
      returns NULL even though a valid return value are expected.
      
      Solution
      
      Remove the state change of the recovery failed region from DM_RH_RECOVERING
      to DM_RH_NOSYNC in dm_rh_recovery_end(). We can remove the state change
      because:
      
        - If the region data has been released by dm_rh_update_states(),
          a new region data is created with the state of DM_RH_NOSYNC, and
          bios are processed according to the DM_RH_NOSYNC state.
      
        - If the region data has not been released by dm_rh_update_states(),
          a state of the region is DM_RH_RECOVERING and bios are put in the
          delayed_bio list.
      
      The flag change from DM_RH_RECOVERING to DM_RH_NOSYNC in dm_rh_recovery_end()
      was added in the following commit:

      dm raid1: fail writes if errors are not handled and log fails · 5528d17d
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      If the mirror log fails when the handle_errors option was not selected
      and there is no remaining valid mirror leg, writes return success even
      though they weren't actually written to any device.  This patch
      completes them with EIO instead.
      
      This code path is taken:
      do_writes:
      	bio_list_merge(&ms->failures, &sync);
      do_failures:
      	if (!get_valid_mirror(ms)) (false)
      	else if (errors_handled(ms)) (false)
      	else bio_endio(bio, 0);
      
      The logic in do_failures is based on presuming that the write was already
      tried: if it succeeded at least on one leg (without handle_errors) it
      is reported as success.

      dm log: userspace fix overhead_size calcuations · ebfd32bb
      Jonathan Brassow 提交于
      This patch fixes two bugs that revolve around the miscalculation and
      misuse of the variable 'overhead_size'.  'overhead_size' is the size of
      the various header structures used during communication.
      
      The first bug is the use of 'sizeof' with the pointer of a structure
      instead of the structure itself - resulting in the wrong size being
      computed.  This is then used in a check to see if the payload
      (data_size) would be to large for the preallocated structure.  Since the
      bug produces a smaller value for the overhead, it was possible for the
      structure to be breached.  (Although the current users of the code do
      not currently send enough data to trigger this bug.)
      
      The second bug is that the 'overhead_size' value is used to compute how
      much of the preallocated space should be cleared before populating it
      with fresh data.  This should have simply been 'sizeof(struct cn_msg)'
      not overhead_size.  The fact that 'overhead_size' was computed
      incorrectly made this problem "less bad" - leaving only a pointer's
      worth of space at the end uncleared.  Thus, this bug was never producing
      a bad result, but still needs to be fixed - especially now that the
      value is computed correctly.

      firewire: ohci: retransmit isochronous transmit packets on cycle loss · 7f51a100
      Clemens Ladisch 提交于
      In isochronous transmit DMA descriptors, link the skip address pointer
      back to the descriptor itself.  When a cycle is lost, the controller
      will send the packet in the next cycle, instead of terminating the
      entire DMA program.
      
      There are two reasons for this:
      
      * This behaviour is compatible with the old IEEE1394 stack.  Old
        applications would not expect the DMA program to stop in this case.
      
      * Since the OHCI driver does not report any uncompleted packets, the
        context would stop silently; clients would not have any chance to
        detect and handle this error without a watchdog timer.
      Signed-off-by: NClemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de>
      
      Pieter Palmers notes:
      
      "The reason I added this retry behavior to the old stack is because some
      cards now and then fail to send a packet (e.g. the o2micro card in my
      dell laptop).  I couldn't figure out why exactly this happens, my best
      guess is that the card cannot fetch the payload data on time.  This
      happens much more frequently when sending large packets, which leads me
      to suspect that there are some contention issues with the DMA that fills
      the transmit FIFO.
      
      In the old stack it was a pretty critical issue as it resulted in a
      freeze of the userspace application.
      
      The omission of a packet doesn't necessarily have to be an issue.  E.g.
      in IEC61883 streams the DBC field can be used to detect discontinuities
      in the stream.  So as long as the other side doesn't bail when no
      [packet] is present in a cycle, there is not really a problem.
      
      I'm not convinced though that retrying is the proper solution, but it is
      simple and effective for what it had to do.  And I think there are no
      reasons not to do it this way.  Userspace can still detect this by
      checking the cycle the descriptor was sent in."

      tracing/kprobes: Fix probe parsing · a9bb18f3
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      Trying to add a probe like:
      
        echo p:myprobe 0x10000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
      
      will fail since the wrong pointer is passed to strict_strtoul
      when trying to convert the address to an unsigned long.
