由 Hugh Dickins 提交于
Shame on me! Commit b1dea800 "tmpfs: fix race between umount and writepage" fixed the advertized race, but introduced another: as even its comment makes clear, we cannot safely rely on a peek at list_empty() while holding no lock - until info->swapped is set, shmem_unuse_inode() may delete any formerly-swapped inode from the shmem_swaplist, which in this case would leave a swap area impossible to swapoff. Although I don't relish taking the mutex every time, I don't care much for the alternatives either; and at least the peek at list_empty() in shmem_evict_inode() (a hotter path since most inodes would never have been swapped) remains safe, because we already truncated the whole file.

This moves the if (num_registered_fb == FB_MAX) return -ENXIO; check _AFTER_ the call to do_remove_conflicting_framebuffers() as this would (now in a safe way) allow a native driver to replace the conflicting one even if all slots in registered_fb[] are taken. This also prevents unregistering a framebuffer that is no longer registered (vga16f will unregister at module unload time even if the frame buffer had been unregistered earlier due to being found conflicting).

由 Linus Torvalds 提交于
When a register_framebuffer() call results in us removing old conflicting framebuffers, the new registration_lock doesn't protect that situation. And we can't just add the same locking to the function, because these functions call each other: register_framebuffer() calls remove_conflicting_framebuffers, which in turn calls unregister_framebuffer for any conflicting entry. In order to fix it, this just creates wrapper functions around all three functions and makes the versions that actually do the work be called "do_xxx()", leaving just the wrapper that gets the lock and calls the worker function. So the rule becomes simply that "do_xxxx()" has to be called with the lock held, and now do_register_framebuffer() can just call do_remove_conflicting_framebuffers(), and that in turn can call _do_unregister_framebuffer(), and there is no deadlock, and we can hold the registration lock over the whole sequence, fixing the races. It also makes error cases simpler, and fixes one situation where we would return from unregister_framebuffer() without releasing the lock, pointed out by Bruno Prémont.

The rbd driver currently splits bios when they span an object boundary. However, the blk_end_request expects the completions to roll up the results in block device order, and the split rbd/ceph ops can complete in any order. This patch adds a struct rbd_req_coll to track completion of split requests and ensures that the results are passed back up to the block layer in order. This fixes errors where the file system gets completion of a read operation that spans an object boundary before the data has actually arrived. The bug is easily reproduced with iozone with a working set larger than available RAM.

It's a hot function, and we're better off not mixing types in the mask calculations. The compiler just ends up mixing 16-bit and 32-bit operations, for no good reason. So do everything in 'unsigned int' rather than mixing 'unsigned int' masking with a 'umode_t' (16-bit) mode variable.

Introduce a new x86_init hook called pagetable_reserve that at the end of init_memory_mapping is used to reserve a range of memory addresses for the kernel pagetable pages we used and free the other ones. On native it just calls memblock_x86_reserve_range while on xen it also takes care of setting the spare memory previously allocated for kernel pagetable pages from RO to RW, so that it can be used for other purposes. A detailed explanation of the reason why this hook is needed follows. As a consequence of the commit: commit 4b239f45 Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Date: Fri Dec 17 16:58:28 2010 -0800 x86-64, mm: Put early page table high at some point init_memory_mapping is going to reach the pagetable pages area and map those pages too (mapping them as normal memory that falls in the range of addresses passed to init_memory_mapping as argument). Some of those pages are already pagetable pages (they are in the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end) therefore they are going to be mapped RO and everything is fine. Some of these pages are not pagetable pages yet (they fall in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top; for example the page at pgt_buf_end) so they are going to be mapped RW. When these pages become pagetable pages and are hooked into the pagetable, xen will find that the guest has already a RW mapping of them somewhere and fail the operation. The reason Xen requires pagetables to be RO is that the hypervisor needs to verify that the pagetables are valid before using them. The validation operations are called "pinning" (more details in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c). In order to fix the issue we mark all the pages in the entire range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_top as RO, however when the pagetable allocation is completed only the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end is reserved by init_memory_mapping. Hence the kernel is going to crash as soon as one of the pages in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top is reused (b/c those ranges are RO). For this reason we need a hook to reserve the kernel pagetable pages we used and free the other ones so that they can be reused for other purposes. On native it just means calling memblock_x86_reserve_range, on Xen it also means marking RW the pagetable pages that we allocated before but that haven't been used before. Another way to fix this is without using the hook is by adding a 'if (xen_pv_domain)' in the 'init_memory_mapping' code and calling the Xen counterpart, but that is just nasty.
