PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out. They have few users and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work function. floppy has been multiplexing floppy_work and fd_timer with multiple work functions. Introduce floppy_work_workfn() and fd_timer_workfn() which invoke floppy_work_fn and fd_timer_fn respectively and always use the two functions as the work functions and update the users to set floppy_work_fn and fd_timer_fn instead of overriding work functions using PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK(). It would probably be best to route this with other related updates through the workqueue tree. Lightly tested using qemu.

In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing to let open() succeed. Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0. As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable, read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway. Signed-off-by: NJiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

Since commit 070ad7e7 ("floppy: convert to delayed work and single-thread wq"), we end up calling alloc_ordered_workqueue multiple times inside the loop, which shouldn't be intended. Besides the leak, other side effect in the current code is if blk_init_queue fails, we would end up calling unregister_blkdev even if we didn't call yet register_blkdev. Just moved the allocation of floppy_wq before the loop, and adjusted the code accordingly.

由 Linus Torvalds 提交于
In commit 070ad7e7 ("floppy: convert to delayed work and single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed work. However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process, and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then re-queued the timeout. This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it should. Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed. Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead. The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s one.

Block layer now handles O_EXCL in a generic way for block devices. The semantics is however different for floppy and all other block devices, as floppy driver contains its own O_EXCL handling. The semantics for all-but-floppy bdevs is "there can be at most one O_EXCL open of this file", while for floppy bdev the semantics is "if someone has the bdev open with O_EXCL, noone else can open it". There is actual userspace-observable change in behavior because of this since commit e525fd89 ("block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive access") -- on kernels containing this commit, mount of /dev/fd0 causes the fd0 block device be claimed with _EXCL, preventing subsequent open(/dev/fd0). Bring things back into shape, i.e. make it possible, analogically to other block devices, to mount the floppy and open() it afterwards -- remove the floppy-specific handling and let the generic bdev code O_EXCL handling take over.

There are several races in floppy driver between bottom half (scheduled_work) and timers (fd_timeout, fd_timer). Due to slowness of the actual floppy devices, those races are never (at least to my knowledge) triggered on a bare floppy metal. However on virtualized (emulated) floppy drives, which are of course magnitudes faster than the real ones, these races trigger reliably. They usually exhibit themselves as NULL pointer dereferences during DMA setup, such as BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000a [ ... snip ... ] EIP: 0060:[<c02053d5>] EFLAGS: 00010293 CPU: 0 EAX: ffffe000 EBX: 0000000a ECX: 00000000 EDX: 0000000a ESI: c05d2718 EDI: 00000000 EBP: 00000000 ESP: f540fe44 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0000 SS: 0068 Process swapper (pid: 0, ti=f540e000 task=c082d5a0 task.ti=c0826000) Stack: ffffe000 00001ffc 00000000 00000000 00000000 c05d2718 c0708b40 f540fe80 c020470f c05d2718 c0708b40 00000000 f540fe80 0000000a f540fee4 00000000 c0708b40 f540fee4 00000000 00000000 c020526b 00000000 c05d2718 c0708b40 Call Trace: [<c020470f>] dump_trace+0xaf/0x110 [<c020526b>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x4b/0x60 [<c0205298>] show_trace+0x18/0x20 [<c05c5811>] dump_stack+0x6d/0x72 [<c0248527>] warn_slowpath_common+0x77/0xb0 [<c02485f3>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x33/0x40 [<f7ec593c>] setup_DMA+0x14c/0x210 [floppy] [<f7ecaa95>] setup_rw_floppy+0x105/0x190 [floppy] [<c0256d08>] run_timer_softirq+0x168/0x2a0 [<c024e762>] __do_softirq+0xc2/0x1c0 [<c02042ed>] do_softirq+0x7d/0xb0 [<f54d8a00>] 0xf54d89ff but other instances can be easily seen as well. This can be observed at least under VMWare, VirtualBox and KVM. This patch converts all the timers and bottom halfs to be processed in a single workqueue. This aproach has been already discussed back in 2010 if I remember correctly, and Acked by Linus [1], but it then never made it to the tree. This all is based on original idea and code of Stephen Hemminger. I have ported original Stepen's code to the current state of the floppy driver, and performed quite some testing (on real hardware), which didn't reveal any issues (this includes not only writing and reading data, but also formatting (unfortunately I didn't find any Double-Density disks any more)). Ability to handle errors properly (supplying known bad floppies) has also been verified.

The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the 32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially it turned off the use of HLT. This workaround was commented in the code as: "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations" "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA wreckage. It should be safe to remove." H. Peter Anvin additionally adds: "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind, including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT caused some of these systems to fail. They were by far in the minority even back then." Alan Cox further says: "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during DMA tended to go astray. Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520 fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of use." So, let's finally drop this.

floppy driver does not call add_disk() on all the drives hence we don't take gendisk reference on request queue for these drives.

add_disk() takes gendisk reference on request queue. If driver failed during initialization and never called add_disk() then that extra reference is not taken. That reference is put in put_disk(). floppy driver allocates the disk, allocates queue, sets disk->queue and then relizes that floppy controller is not present. It tries to tear down everything and tries to put a reference down in put_disk() which was never taken. In such error cases cleanup disk->queue before calling put_disk() so that we never try to put down a reference which was never taken in first place.

In-kernel disk event polling doesn't matter for legacy/fringe drivers and may lead to infinite event loop if ->check_events() implementation generates events on level condition instead of edge. Now that block layer supports suppressing exporting unlisted events, simply leaving disk->events cleared allows these drivers to keep the internal revalidation behavior intact while avoiding weird interactions with userland event handler.

Convert the floppy drivers from ->media_changed() to ->check_events(). Both floppy and ataflop buffer media changed state bit and clear them on revalidation and will behave correctly with kernel event polling. I can't tell how amiflop clears its event and it's possible that it may generate spurious events when polled.

There are two cases when we call flush_disk. In one, the device has disappeared (check_disk_change) so any data will hold becomes irrelevant. In the oter, the device has changed size (check_disk_size_change) so data we hold may be irrelevant. In both cases it makes sense to discard any 'clean' buffers, so they will be read back from the device if needed. In the former case it makes sense to discard 'dirty' buffers as there will never be anywhere safe to write the data. In the second case it *does*not* make sense to discard dirty buffers as that will lead to file system corruption when you simply enlarge the containing devices. flush_disk calls __invalidate_devices. __invalidate_device calls both invalidate_inodes and invalidate_bdev. invalidate_inodes *does* discard I_DIRTY inodes and this does lead to fs corruption. invalidate_bev *does*not* discard dirty pages, but I don't really care about that at present. So this patch adds a flag to __invalidate_device (calling it __invalidate_device2) to indicate whether dirty buffers should be killed, and this is passed to invalidate_inodes which can choose to skip dirty inodes. flusk_disk then passes true from check_disk_change and false from check_disk_size_change. dm avoids tripping over this problem by calling i_size_write directly rathher than using check_disk_size_change. md does use check_disk_size_change and so is affected. This regression was introduced by commit 608aeef1 which causes check_disk_size_change to call flush_disk, so it is suitable for any kernel since 2.6.27.

While scanning the floopy code due to c093ee4f ("floppy: fix use-after-free in module load failure path"), I found one more instance of trying to access disk->queue pointer after doing put_disk() on gendisk. For some reason , floppy moule still loads/unloads fine. The object is probably still around with right pointer values. o There seems to be one more instance of trying to cleanup the request queue after we have called put_disk() on associated gendisk. o This fix is more out of code inspection. Even without this fix for some reason I am able to load/unload floppy module without any issues. o Floppy module loads/unloads fine after the fix.

Commit 48821184 ("floppy: switch to one queue per drive instead of sharing a queue") introduced a use-after-free. We do "put_disk()" on the disk device _before_ we then clean up the queue associated with that disk. Move the put_disk() down to avoid dereferencing a free'd data structure.

Pretty straight forward conversion. Note that we do round-robin between the drives that have available requests, before we simply used the drive that the IO scheduler told us to. Since the IO scheduler doesn't care about multiple devices per queue, the resulting sort would not have made sense.
