      writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h · 66114cad
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
      declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
      unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
      makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.
      
      This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
      essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
      which need access to more backing-dev details now include
      backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common
      include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
      and cgroup.

      block: queue work on power efficient wq · 695588f9
      Viresh Kumar 提交于
      Block layer uses workqueues for multiple purposes. There is no real dependency
      of scheduling these on the cpu which scheduled them.
      
      On a idle system, it is observed that and idle cpu wakes up many times just to
      service this work. It would be better if we can schedule it on a cpu which the
      scheduler believes to be the most appropriate one.
      
      This patch replaces normal workqueues with power efficient versions.

      driver core: add uid and gid to devtmpfs · 3c2670e6

      Some drivers want to tell userspace what uid and gid should be used for
      their device nodes, so allow that information to percolate through the
      driver core to userspace in order to make this happen.  This means that
      some systems (i.e.  Android and friends) will not need to even run a
      udev-like daemon for their device node manager and can just rely in
      devtmpfs fully, reducing their footprint even more.

      This most likely happens because dev_t is freed while the number is
      still used and idr_get_new() is not protected on every use.  The fix
      adds a mutex where it wasn't before and moves the dev_t free function so
      it is called after device del.

      block: prevent race/cleanup · 12c2bdb2
      Derek Basehore 提交于
      Remove a race condition which causes a warning in disk_clear_events.  This
      is a race between disk_clear_events() and disk_flush_events().
      ev->clearing will be altered by disk_flush_events() even though we are
      blocking event checking through disk_flush_events().  If this happens
      after ev->clearing was cleared for disk_clear_events(), this can cause the
      WARN_ON_ONCE() in that function to be triggered.
      
      This change also has disk_clear_events() not go through a workqueue.
      Since we have to wait for the work to complete, we should just call the
      function directly.  Also, since this work cannot be put on a freezable
      workqueue, it will have to contend with increased demand, so calling the
      function directly avoids this.

      block: remove deadlock in disk_clear_events · aea24a8b
      Derek Basehore 提交于
      In disk_clear_events, do not put work on system_nrt_freezable_wq.
      Instead, put it on system_nrt_wq.
      
      There is a race between probing a usb and suspending the device.  Since
      probing a usb calls disk_clear_events, which puts work on a frozen
      workqueue, probing cannot finish after the workqueue is frozen.  However,
      suspending cannot finish until the usb probe is finished, so we get a
      deadlock, causing the system to reboot.
      
      The way to reproduce this bug is to wake up from suspend with a usb
      storage device plugged in, or plugging in a usb storage device right
      before suspend.  The window of time is on the order of time it takes to
      probe the usb device.  As long as the workqueues are frozen before the
      call to add_disk within sd_probe_async finishes, there will be a deadlock
      (which calls blkdev_get, sd_open, check_disk_change, then
      disk_clear_events).  This is not difficult to reproduce after figuring out
      the timings.

      block: store partition_meta_info.uuid as a string · 1ad7e899
      Stephen Warren 提交于
      This will allow other types of UUID to be stored here, aside from true
      UUIDs.  This also simplifies code that uses this field, since it's usually
      constructed from a, used as a, or compared to other, strings.
      
      Note: A simplistic approach here would be to set uuid_str[36]=0 whenever a
      /PARTNROFF option was found to be present.  However, this modifies the
      input string, and causes subsequent calls to devt_from_partuuid() not to
      see the /PARTNROFF option, which causes different results.  In order to
      avoid misleading future maintainers, this parameter is marked const.

      workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of cancel + queue · 41f63c53
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Convert delayed_work users doing cancel_delayed_work() followed by
      queue_delayed_work() to mod_delayed_work().
      
      Most conversions are straight-forward.  Ones worth mentioning are,
      
      * drivers/edac/edac_mc.c: edac_mc_workq_setup() converted to always
        use mod_delayed_work() and cancel loop in
        edac_mc_reset_delay_period() is dropped.
      
      * drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c: No need to remember whether
        watchdog is active or not.  @fan_watchdog_active and related code
        dropped.
      
      * drivers/power/charger-manager.c: Seemingly a lot of
        delayed_work_pending() abuse going on here.
        [delayed_]work_pending() are unsynchronized and racy when used like
        this.  I converted one instance in fullbatt_handler().  Please
        conver the rest so that it invokes workqueue APIs for the intended
        target state rather than trying to game work item pending state
        transitions.  e.g. if timer should be modified - call
        mod_delayed_work(), canceled - call cancel_delayed_work[_sync]().
      
      * drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.c: thermal_zone_device_set_polling()
        simplified.  Note that round_jiffies() calls in this function are
        meaningless.  round_jiffies() work on absolute jiffies not delta
        delay used by delayed_work.
      
      v2: Tomi pointed out that __cancel_delayed_work() users can't be
          safely converted to mod_delayed_work().  They could be calling it
          from irq context and if that happens while delayed_work_timer_fn()
          is running, it could deadlock.  __cancel_delayed_work() users are
          dropped.

      block: add partition resize function to blkpg ioctl · c83f6bf9
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Add a new operation code (BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION) to the BLKPG ioctl that
      allows altering the size of an existing partition, even if it is currently
      in use.
      
      This patch converts hd_struct->nr_sects into sequence counter because
      One might extend a partition while IO is happening to it and update of
      nr_sects can be non-atomic on 32bit machines with 64bit sector_t. This
      can lead to issues like reading inconsistent size of a partition. Sequence
      counter have been used so that readers don't have to take bdev mutex lock
      as we call sector_in_part() very frequently.
      
      Now all the access to hd_struct->nr_sects should happen using sequence
      counter read/update helper functions part_nr_sects_read/part_nr_sects_write.
      There is one exception though, set_capacity()/get_capacity(). I think
      theoritically race should exist there too but this patch does not
      modify set_capacity()/get_capacity() due to sheer number of call sites
      and I am afraid that change might break something. I have left that as a
      TODO item. We can handle it later if need be. This patch does not introduce
      any new races as such w.r.t set_capacity()/get_capacity().

      Block: use a freezable workqueue for disk-event polling · 62d3c543
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as1519) fixes a bug in the block layer's disk-events
      polling.  The polling is done by a work routine queued on the
      system_nrt_wq workqueue.  Since that workqueue isn't freezable, the
      polling continues even in the middle of a system sleep transition.
      
      Obviously, polling a suspended drive for media changes and such isn't
      a good thing to do; in the case of USB mass-storage devices it can
      lead to real problems requiring device resets and even re-enumeration.
      
      The patch fixes things by creating a new system-wide, non-reentrant,
      freezable workqueue and using it for disk-events polling.

      not know how to nullify disk->ev (since it can be used). However add_disk
      error handling practically does not exist too, and things will work
      without this sysfs file, except events will not be exported to user

      This is because bdev holds on to disk but disk doesn't pin the
      associated queue.  If a SCSI device is removed while the device is
      still open, the sdev puts the base reference to the queue on release.
      When the bdev is finally released, the associated queue is already

      Even if it were not for this bug, disk not holding onto the associated
      queue is very unusual and error-prone.

      put it on disk_release() and ensuring that disk and its fops owner are
      put in that order after all accesses to the disk and queue are

      There are cases where suppressing partition scan is useful - e.g. for
      lo devices and pseudo SATA devices which advertise to be a disk but
      get upset on partition scan (some port multiplier control devices show
      such behavior).
      
      This patch adds GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN which suppresses partition scan
      regardless of the number of possible partitions.  disk_partitionable()
      is renamed to disk_part_scan_enabled() as suppressing partition scan
      doesn't imply the device can't be partitioned using
      BLKPG_ADD/DEL_PARTITION calls from userland.  show_partition() now
      directly tests disk_max_parts() to maintain backward-compatibility.

      Remove the (unsigned long long) cast in diskstats_show() and adjusts the

      diskstats_show() uses part_stat_read() to get the stats, which either
      accesses the specified field in the struct disk_stats directly (non SMP)
      or sums up the per CPU values in a variable of the same type as the field,
      so in any case the result will have the same type and range as the
      specified field which for all disk_stats entries is unsigned long
      
      Also, for unsigned long ranges the output of %lu should be identical to
      the one of %llu, so no change in the actual proc entry contents.

      block: flush MEDIA_CHANGE from drivers on close(2) · 85ef06d1
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, only open(2) is defined as the 'clearing' point.  It has
      two roles - first, it's an acknowledgement from userland indicating
      that the event has been received and kernel can clear pending states
      and proceed to generate more events.  Secondly, it's passed on to
      device drivers as a hint indicating that a synchronization point has
      been reached and it might want to take a deeper look at the device.
      
      The latter currently is only used by sr which uses two different
      mechanisms - GET_EVENT_MEDIA_STATUS_NOTIFICATION and TEST_UNIT_READY
      to discover events, where the former is lighter weight and safe to be
      used repeatedly but may not provide full coverage.  Among other
      things, GET_EVENT can't detect media removal while TUR can.
      
      This patch makes close(2) - blkdev_put() - indicate clearing hint for
      MEDIA_CHANGE to drivers.  disk_check_events() is renamed to
      disk_flush_events() and updated to take @mask for events to flush
      which is or'd to ev->clearing and will be passed to the driver on the
      next ->check_events() invocation.
      
      This change makes sr generate MEDIA_CHANGE when media is ejected from
      userland - e.g. with eject(1).
      
      Note: Given the current usage, it seems @clearing hint is needlessly
