Fix I/O stalls with some 4-bay RAID enclosures which are based on OXUF936QSE: - Onnto dataTale RSM4QO, old firmware (not anymore with current firmware), - inXtron Hydra Super-S LCM, old as well as current firmware when used in RAID-5 mode, perhaps also in other RAID modes. The stalls happen during heavy or moderate disk traffic in periods that are a multiple of 5 minutes, roughly twice per hour. They are caused by the target responding too late to an ORB_Pointer register write: The target responds after Split_Timeout, hence firewire-core cancels the transaction, and firewire-sbp2 fails the SCSI request. The SCSI core retries the request, that fails again (and again), hence SCSI core calls firewire-sbp2's abort handler (and even the Management_Agent register write in the abort handler has the transaction timeout problem). During all that, the process which issued the I/O is stalled in I/O wait state. Meanwhile, the target actually acts on the first failed SCSI request: It responds to the ORB_Pointer write later (seen in the kernel log as "firewire_core: Unsolicited response") and also finishes the SCSI request with proper status (seen in the kernel log as "firewire_sbp2: status write for unknown orb"). So let's just ignore RCODE_CANCELLED in the transaction callback and wait for the target to complete the ORB nevertheless. This requires a small modification is sbp2_cancel_orbs(); it now needs to call orb->callback() regardless whether fw_cancel_transaction() found the transaction unfinished or finished. A different solution is to increase Split_Timeout on the local node. (Tested: 2000ms timeout; maybe 1000ms or something like that works too. 200ms is insufficient. Standard is 100ms.) However, I rather not do this because any software on any node could change the Split_Timeout to something unsuitable. Or such a large Split_Timeout may be undesirable for other purposes.

When an ORB was canceled (Command ORB i.e. SCSI request timed out, or Management ORB timed out), or there was a send error in the initial transaction, we missed to drop one of the ORB's references and thus leaked memory. Background: In total, we hold 3 references to each Operation Request Block: - 1 during sbp2_scsi_queuecommand() or sbp2_send_management_orb() respectively, - 1 for the duration of the write transaction to the ORB_Pointer or Management_Agent register of the target, - 1 for as long as the ORB stays within the lu->orb_list, until the ORB is unlinked from the list and the orb->callback was executed. The latter one of these 3 references is finished - normally by sbp2_status_write() when the target wrote status for a pending ORB, - or by sbp2_cancel_orbs() in case of an ORB time-out, - or by complete_transaction() in case of a send error. Of them, the latter two lacked the kref_put. Add the missing kref_put()s. Add comments to the gets and puts of references for transaction callbacks and ORB callbacks so that it is easier to see what is supposed to happen.

Debian's ia64 autobuilders have been seeing kernel freeze or reboot when running the gdb testsuite (Debian bug 588574): dannf bisected to 2.6.32 62eede62 "mm: ZERO_PAGE without PTE_SPECIAL"; and reproduced it with gdb's gcore on a simple target. I'd missed updating the gate_vma handling in __get_user_pages(): that happens to use vm_normal_page() (nowadays failing on the zero page), yet reported success even when it failed to get a page - boom when access_process_vm() tried to copy that to its intermediate buffer. Fix this, resisting cleanups: in particular, leave it for now reporting success when not asked to get any pages - very probably safe to change, but let's not risk it without testing exposure. Why did ia64 crash with 16kB pages, but succeed with 64kB pages? Because setup_gate() pads each 64kB of its gate area with zero pages.

Generally the rest of the code assumes that the path can have NFS_MAXPATHLEN (1024) characters and a NUL terminator so the fix is to add space to the nfs_export_path[] buffer.

Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check by removing the following validation condition: lockdep_tasklist_lock_is_held() as commit_creds() does not take the tasklist_lock, and nor do most of the functions that call it, so this check is pointless and it can prevent detection of the RCU lock not being held if the tasklist_lock is held. Instead, add the following validation condition: task->exit_state >= 0 to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change its own credentials. Fix __task_cred()'s comment to: (1) discard the bit that says that the caller must prevent the target task from being deleted. That shouldn't need saying. (2) Add a comment indicating the result of __task_cred() should not be passed directly to get_cred(), but rather than get_task_cred() should be used instead.

It's possible for get_task_cred() as it currently stands to 'corrupt' a set of credentials by incrementing their usage count after their replacement by the task being accessed. What happens is that get_task_cred() can race with commit_creds(): TASK_1 TASK_2 RCU_CLEANER -->get_task_cred(TASK_2) rcu_read_lock() __cred = __task_cred(TASK_2) -->commit_creds() old_cred = TASK_2->real_cred TASK_2->real_cred = ... put_cred(old_cred) call_rcu(old_cred) [__cred->usage == 0] get_cred(__cred) [__cred->usage == 1] rcu_read_unlock() -->put_cred_rcu() [__cred->usage == 1] panic() However, since a tasks credentials are generally not changed very often, we can reasonably make use of a loop involving reading the creds pointer and using atomic_inc_not_zero() to attempt to increment it if it hasn't already hit zero. If successful, we can safely return the credentials in the knowledge that, even if the task we're accessing has released them, they haven't gone to the RCU cleanup code. We then change task_state() in procfs to use get_task_cred() rather than calling get_cred() on the result of __task_cred(), as that suffers from the same problem. Without this change, a BUG_ON in __put_cred() or in put_cred_rcu() can be tripped when it is noticed that the usage count is not zero as it ought to be, for example: kernel BUG at kernel/cred.c:168! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run CPU 0 Pid: 2436, comm: master Not tainted 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.x86_64 #1 0HR330/OptiPlex 745 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81069881>] [<ffffffff81069881>] __put_cred+0xc/0x45 RSP: 0018:ffff88019e7e9eb8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffff880161514480 RCX: 00000000ffffffff RDX: 00000000ffffffff RSI: ffff880140c690c0 RDI: ffff880140c690c0 RBP: ffff88019e7e9eb8 R08: 00000000000000d0 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000040 R12: ffff880140c690c0 R13: ffff88019e77aea0 R14: 00007fff336b0a5c R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 00007f12f50d97c0(0000) GS:ffff880007400000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f8f461bc000 CR3: 00000001b26ce000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process master (pid: 2436, threadinfo ffff88019e7e8000, task ffff88019e77aea0) Stack: ffff88019e7e9ec8 ffffffff810698cd ffff88019e7e9ef8 ffffffff81069b45 <0> ffff880161514180 ffff880161514480 ffff880161514180 0000000000000000 <0> ffff88019e7e9f28 ffffffff8106aace 0000000000000001 0000000000000246 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810698cd>] put_cred+0x13/0x15 [<ffffffff81069b45>] commit_creds+0x16b/0x175 [<ffffffff8106aace>] set_current_groups+0x47/0x4e [<ffffffff8106ac89>] sys_setgroups+0xf6/0x105 [<ffffffff81009b02>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: 48 8d 71 ff e8 7e 4e 15 00 85 c0 78 0b 8b 75 ec 48 89 df e8 ef 4a 15 00 48 83 c4 18 5b c9 c3 55 8b 07 8b 07 48 89 e5 85 c0 74 04 <0f> 0b eb fe 65 48 8b 04 25 00 cc 00 00 48 3b b8 58 04 00 00 75 RIP [<ffffffff81069881>] __put_cred+0xc/0x45 RSP <ffff88019e7e9eb8> ---[ end trace df391256a100ebdd ]--- Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: NJiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This adds the DMA context programming and userspace ABI for multichannel reception, i.e. for listening on multiple channel numbers by means of a single DMA context. The use case is reception of more streams than there are IR DMA units offered by the link layer. This is already implemented by the older ohci1394 + ieee1394 + raw1394 stack. And as discussed recently on linux1394-devel, this feature is occasionally used in practice. The big drawbacks of this mode are that buffer layout and interrupt generation necessarily differ from single-channel reception: Headers and trailers are not stripped from packets, packets are not aligned with buffer chunks, interrupts are per buffer chunk, not per packet. These drawbacks also cause a rather hefty code footprint to support this rarely used OHCI-1394 feature. (367 lines added, among them 94 lines of added userspace ABI documentation.) This implementation enforces that a multichannel reception context may only listen to channels to which no single-channel context on the same link layer is presently listening to. OHCI-1394 would allow to overlay single-channel contexts by the multi-channel context, but this would be a departure from the present first-come-first-served policy of IR context creation. The implementation is heavily based on an earlier one by Jay Fenlason. Thanks Jay. Signed-off-by: NStefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

When the coherent DMA buffers are mapped as Normal Non-cacheable (ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE enabled), buffer accesses are no longer ordered with Device memory accesses causing failures in device drivers that do not use the mandatory memory barriers before starting a DMA transfer. LKML discussions led to the conclusion that such barriers have to be added to the I/O accessors: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/683509/focus=686153 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/46414 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/5250 This patch introduces a wmb() barrier to the write*() I/O accessors to handle the situations where Normal Non-cacheable writes are still in the processor (or L2 cache controller) write buffer before a DMA transfer command is issued. For the read*() accessors, a rmb() is introduced after the I/O to avoid speculative loads where the driver polls for a DMA transfer ready bit.
