Implement helpers to determine node from dentry and root from super_block. Also add a kernfs_rename_ns() wrapper which assumes NULL namespace. These generally make sense and will be used by cgroup. v2: Some dummy implementations for !CONFIG_SYSFS was missing. Fixed. Reported by kbuild test robot.

A write to a kernfs_node is buffered through a kernel buffer. Writes <= PAGE_SIZE are performed atomically, while larger ones are executed in PAGE_SIZE chunks. While this is enough for sysfs, cgroup which is scheduled to be converted to use kernfs needs a bit more control over it. This patch adds kernfs_ops->atomic_write_len. If not set (zero), the behavior stays the same. If set, writes upto the size are executed atomically and larger writes are rejected with -E2BIG. A different implementation strategy would be allowing configuring chunking size while making the original write size available to the write method; however, such strategy, while being more complicated, doesn't really buy anything. If the write implementation has to handle chunking, the specific chunk size shouldn't matter all that much.

Currently, kernfs_nodes are made visible to userland on creation, which makes it difficult for kernfs users to atomically succeed or fail creation of multiple nodes. In addition, if something fails after creating some nodes, the created nodes might already be in use and their active refs need to be drained for removal, which has the potential to introduce tricky reverse locking dependency on active_ref depending on how the error path is synchronized. This patch introduces per-root flag KERNFS_ROOT_CREATE_DEACTIVATED. If set, all nodes under the root are created in the deactivated state and stay invisible to userland until explicitly enabled by the new kernfs_activate() API. Also, nodes which have never been activated are guaranteed to bypass draining on removal thus allowing error paths to not worry about lockding dependency on active_ref draining.

kernfs_iop_lookup(), kernfs_dir_pos() and kernfs_dir_next_pos() were missing kernfs_active() tests before using the found kernfs_node. As deactivated state is currently visible only while a node is being removed, this doesn't pose an actual problem. e.g. lookup succeeding on a deactivated node doesn't harm anything as the eventual file operations are gonna fail and those failures are indistinguishible from the cases in which the lookups had happened before the node was deactivated. However, we're gonna allow new nodes to be created deactivated and then activated explicitly by the kernfs user when it sees fit. This is to support atomically making multiple nodes visible to userland and thus those nodes must not be visible to userland before activated. Let's plug the lookup and readdir holes so that deactivated nodes are invisible to userland. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

kernfs_dir_ops are currently being invoked without any active reference, which makes it tricky for the invoked operations to determine whether the objects associated those nodes are safe to access and will remain that way for the duration of such operations. kernfs already has active_ref mechanism to deal with this which makes the removal of a given node the synchronization point for gating the file operations. There's no reason for dir_ops to be any different. Update the dir_ops handling so that active_ref is held while the dir_ops are executing. This guarantees that while a dir_ops is executing the target nodes stay alive. As kernfs_dir_ops doesn't have any in-kernel user at this point, this doesn't affect anybody.

The new function is now called directly from ccwgroup_ungroup_store(). ccwgroup_notifier() chain is updated to explicitly bounce through ccwgroup_device->ungroup_work. This also removes possible failure from memory pressure. Only compile-tested.

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself is sitting on top of. This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous. While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation reliable. The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous. All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't confuse the deactivation path. This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal deletion path will simply be ignored. This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations - even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 > delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is completed by one of the instances. Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection(). kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be used to cater to more complex cases. v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it. Reported by kbuild test bot. v3: kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() separated out from kernfs_remove_self() and exposed as public API.

KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or renaming it; however, its role overlaps that of deactivation. It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation - KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new file operations. There's no reason to have them separate making things more complex than necessary. This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED. * Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life deactivated. This means that we now use both atomic_add() and atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN. The compiler generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation can't be represented as a positive number. Nothing is actually broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs which negates the subtrahend.. * A new helper kernfs_active() which tests whether kn->active >= 0 is added for convenience and lockdep annotation. All KERNFS_REMOVED tests are replaced with negated kernfs_active() tests. * __kernfs_remove() is updated to deactivate, but not drain, all nodes in the subtree instead of setting KERNFS_REMOVED. This removes deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(), which is now renamed to kernfs_drain(). * Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with checks on the active ref. * Some comment style updates in the affected area. v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring. kernfs_active() dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead. RB_EMPTY_NODE() used in the lookup paths. v3: Reverted most of v2 except for creating a new node with KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS.

There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask. The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active() while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate(). While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it needlessly diverges code paths. Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF. While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled out when not enabled. v2: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag"). As the earlier patch already added KERNFS_LOCKDEP tests to kernfs_deactivate(), those additions are dropped from this patch and the existing ones are simply converted to kernfs_lockdep().

kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were added because there were operations which should be performed outside kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes. The necessary operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish() performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path too. This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove() and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish(). * kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex itself. sysfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from all users. * __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining it to kernfs_addrm_cxt. Its callers are updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around it. v2: Rebased on top of "kernfs: associate a new kernfs_node with its parent on creation" which dropped @parent from kernfs_add_one().

kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion before returning. It can be easily fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from kernfs_addrm_finish() to kernfs_deactivated(). The function may be called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.

The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its descendants. While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult to enforce. It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is accessible. The current behavior in such situations is broken. Whoever enters removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then deactivates. Following removers either return as soon as it notices that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it has already been removed from the hierarchy. In both cases, the following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one. This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules. * When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base ref. * Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked until the target node is fully deactivated and removed. To achieve the above, removal path now first marks all descendants including self REMOVED and then deactivates and unlinks leftmost descendant one-by-one. kernfs_deactivate() is called directly from __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs kernfs_mutex for each descendant to drain active refs. As this means that multiple removers can enter kernfs_deactivate() for the same node, the function is updated so that it can handle multiple deactivators of the same node - only one actually deactivates but all wait till drain completion. The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained. Combined with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed. v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate(). This is to allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later. Root node removal was broken in v1 patch. Fixed. v3: Revert most of v2 except for root node removal fix and simplification of KERNFS_REMOVED setting loop. v4: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag").

kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion from kernfs_put_active() to kernfs_deactivate(). We now allow multiple racing removals of the same node and the current removal scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return before the node is properly deactivated if it races against another removal. The removal path will be restructured to address the issue. To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters, this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq. This makes deactivation event notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off kernfs_node. v2: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag").

dma_buf_map_attachment and dma_buf_vmap can return NULL or ERR_PTR on a error. This encourages a common buggy pattern in callers: sgt = dma_buf_map_attachment(attach, DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL); if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(sgt)) return PTR_ERR(sgt); This causes the caller to return 0 on an error. IS_ERR_OR_NULL is almost always a sign of poorly-defined error handling. This patch converts dma_buf_map_attachment to always return ERR_PTR, and fixes the callers that incorrectly handled NULL. There are a few more callers that were not checking for NULL at all, which would have dereferenced a NULL pointer later. There are also a few more callers that correctly handled NULL and ERR_PTR differently, I left those alone but they could also be modified to delete the NULL check. This patch also converts dma_buf_vmap to always return NULL. All the callers to dma_buf_vmap only check for NULL, and would have dereferenced an ERR_PTR and panic'd if one was ever returned. This is not consistent with the rest of the dma buf APIs, but matches the expectations of all of the callers.

HPFS needs to load 4 consecutive 512-byte sectors when accessing the directory nodes or bitmaps. We can't switch to 2048-byte block size because files are allocated in the units of 512-byte sectors. Previously, the driver would allocate a 2048-byte area using kmalloc, copy the data from four buffers to this area and eventually copy them back if they were modified. In the current implementation of the buffer cache, buffers are allocated in the pagecache. That means that 4 consecutive 512-byte buffers are stored in consecutive areas in the kernel address space. So, we don't need to allocate extra memory and copy the content of the buffers there. This patch optimizes the code to avoid copying the buffers. It checks if the four buffers are stored in contiguous memory - if they are not, it falls back to allocating a 2048-byte area and copying data there.

Previously, hpfs scanned all bitmaps each time the user asked for free space using statfs. This patch changes it so that hpfs scans the bitmaps only once, remembes the free space and on next invocation of statfs it returns the value instantly. New versions of wine are hammering on the statfs syscall very heavily, making some games unplayable when they're stored on hpfs, with load times in minutes. This should be backported to the stable kernels because it fixes user-visible problem (excessive level load times in wine).

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson: "Here's a set of patches for (hopefully) -rc1. Some of them are fixes, but a good number of them also do things such as enable new drivers in the defconfigs for platforms that have such devices, increases coverage of the multiplatform defconfig and some DTS changes that plumbs up some of the devices that now have bindings and driver support. The commit dates are recent; we've mostly collected these fixes in the last few days but I also had to rebuild the branch yesterday to sort out some internal conflicts which reset the timestamps. The changes should have been tested by each platform maintainer already (and few of them have cross-platform impact) so I'm personally not too concerned by it at this time" * tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (23 commits) ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: remove redundant entries and re-enable TI_EDMA ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: add mvebu drivers clocksource: kona: Add basic use of external clock drivers: bus: fix CCI driver kcalloc call parameters swap ARM: dts: bcm28155-ap: Fix Card Detection GPIO ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: Select CONFIG_AT803X_PHY ARM: keystone: config: fix build warning when CONFIG_DMADEVICES is not set MAINTAINERS: ARM: SiRF: use regex patterns to involve all SiRF drivers ARM: dts: zynq: Add SDHCI nodes ARM: hisi: don't select SMP ARM: tegra: rebuild tegra_defconfig to add DEBUG_FS ARM: multi_v7: copy most options from tegra_defconfig ARM: iop32x: fix power off handling for the EM7210 board ARM: integrator: restore static map on the CP ARM: msm_defconfig: Enable MSM clock drivers ARM: dts: msm: Add clock controller nodes and hook into uart ARM: OMAP4+: move errata initialization to omap4_pm_init_early ARM: OMAP4460: cpuidle: Extend PM_OMAP4_ROM_SMP_BOOT_ERRATUM_GICD on cpuidle ARM: mvebu: fix compilation warning on Armada 370 (i.e. non-SMP) ARM: shmobile: r8a7790.dtsi: ficx i2c[0-3] clock reference ...

Similar to what was done for the lm75 driver. Add depends on THERMAL since that is what provides the register/unregister functions above, but only if THERMAL_OF was selected as this is an optional feature of the driver.

Based on an earlier attempt by Randy Dunlap. Fix SENSORS_LM75 dependencies to eliminate build errors: drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_remove': lm75.c:(.text+0x12bd8c): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister' drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_probe': lm75.c:(.text+0x12c123): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_register' Add depends on THERMAL since that is what provides the register/unregister functions above, but only if THERMAL_OF was selected as this is an optional feature of the driver.

The new option allows just run turbostat and get dump of counter values. It's useful when we have something more than one program to test. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
