      workqueue: narrow the protection range of manager_mutex · 4d757c5c
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      In create_worker(), as pool->worker_ida now uses
      ida_simple_get()/ida_simple_put() and doesn't require external
      synchronization, it doesn't need manager_mutex.
      
      struct worker allocation and kthread allocation are not visible by any
      one before attached, so they don't need manager_mutex either.
      
      The above operations are before the attaching operation which attaches
      the worker to the pool. Between attaching and starting the worker, the
      worker is already attached to the pool, so the cpu hotplug will handle
      cpu-binding for the worker correctly and we don't need the
      manager_mutex after attaching.
      
      The conclusion is that only the attaching operation needs manager_mutex,
      so we narrow the protection section of manager_mutex in create_worker().
      
      Some comments about manager_mutex are removed, because we will rename
      it to attach_mutex and add worker_attach_to_pool() later which will be
      self-explanatory.

      workqueue: convert worker_idr to worker_ida · 7cda9aae
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      We no longer iterate workers via worker_idr and worker_idr is used
      only for allocating/freeing ID, so we can convert it to worker_ida.
      
      By using ida_simple_get/remove(), worker_ida doesn't require external
      synchronization, so we don't need manager_mutex to protect it and the
      ID-removal code is allowed to be moved out from
      worker_detach_from_pool().
      
      In a later patch, worker_detach_from_pool() will be used in rescuers
      which don't have IDs, so we move the ID-removal code out from
      worker_detach_from_pool() into worker_thread().

      workqueue: separate iteration role from worker_idr · da028469
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      worker_idr has the iteration (iterating for attached workers) and
      worker ID duties. These two duties don't have to be tied together. We
      can separate them and use a list for tracking attached workers and
      iteration.
      
      Before this separation, it wasn't possible to add rescuer workers to
      worker_idr due to rescuer workers couldn't allocate ID dynamically
      because ID-allocation depends on memory-allocation, which rescuer
      can't depend on.
      
      After separation, we can easily add the rescuer workers to the list for
      iteration without any memory-allocation. It is required when we attach
      the rescuer worker to the pool in later patch.

      workqueue: destroy worker directly in the idle timeout handler · 3347fc9f
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      Since destroy_worker() doesn't need to sleep nor require manager_mutex,
      destroy_worker() can be directly called in the idle timeout
      handler, it helps us remove POOL_MANAGE_WORKERS and
      maybe_destroy_worker() and simplify the manage_workers()
      
      After POOL_MANAGE_WORKERS is removed, worker_thread() doesn't
      need to test whether it needs to manage after processed works.
      So we can remove the test branch.

      workqueue: async worker destruction · 60f5a4bc
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      worker destruction includes these parts of code:
      	adjust pool's stats
      	remove the worker from idle list
      	detach the worker from the pool
      	kthread_stop() to wait for the worker's task exit
      	free the worker struct
      
      We can find out that there is no essential work to do after
      kthread_stop(), which means destroy_worker() doesn't need to wait for
      the worker's task exit, so we can remove kthread_stop() and free the
      worker struct in the worker exiting path.
      
      However, put_unbound_pool() still needs to sync the all the workers'
      destruction before destroying the pool; otherwise, the workers may
      access to the invalid pool when they are exiting.
      
      So we also move the code of "detach the worker" to the exiting
      path and let put_unbound_pool() to sync with this code via
      detach_completion.
      
      The code of "detach the worker" is wrapped in a new function
      "worker_detach_from_pool()" although worker_detach_from_pool() is only
      called once (in worker_thread()) after this patch, but we need to wrap
      it for these reasons:
      
        1) The code of "detach the worker" is not short enough to unfold them
           in worker_thread().
        2) the name of "worker_detach_from_pool()" is self-comment, and we add
           some comments above the function.
        3) it will be shared by rescuer in later patch which allows rescuer
           and normal thread use the same attach/detach frameworks.
      
      The worker id is freed when detaching which happens before the worker
      is fully dead, but this id of the dying worker may be re-used for a
      new worker, so the dying worker's task name is changed to
      "worker/dying" to avoid two or several workers having the same name.
      
      Since "detach the worker" is moved out from destroy_worker(),
      destroy_worker() doesn't require manager_mutex, so the
      "lockdep_assert_held(&pool->manager_mutex)" in destroy_worker() is
      removed, and destroy_worker() is not protected by manager_mutex in
      put_unbound_pool().

      workqueue: destroy_worker() should destroy idle workers only · 73eb7fe7
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      We used to have the CPU online failure path where a worker is created
      and then destroyed without being started. A worker was created for
      the CPU coming online and if the online operation failed the created worker
      was shut down without being started.  But this behavior was changed.
      The first worker is created and started at the same time for the CPU coming
      online.
      
      It means that we had already ensured in the code that destroy_worker()
      destroys only idle workers and we don't want to allow it to destroy
      any non-idle worker in the future. Otherwise, it may be buggy and it
      may be extremely hard to check. We should force destroy_worker() to
      destroy only idle workers explicitly.
      
      Since destroy_worker() destroys only idle workers, this patch does not
      change any functionality. We just need to update the comments and the
      sanity check code.
      
      In the sanity check code, we will refuse to destroy the worker
      if !(worker->flags & WORKER_IDLE).
      
      If the worker entered idle which means it is already started,
      so we remove the check of "worker->flags & WORKER_STARTED",
      after this removal, WORKER_STARTED is totally unneeded,
      so we remove WORKER_STARTED too.
      
      In the comments for create_worker(), "Create a new worker which is bound..."
      is changed to "... which is attached..." due to we change the name of this
      behavior to attaching.

      workqueue: simplify wq_update_unbound_numa() by jumping to use_dfl_pwq if the target cpumask equals wq's
      
      wq_update_unbound_numa(), when it's decided that the newly updated
      cpumask equals the default, looks at whether the current pwq is
      already the default one and skips setting pwq to the default one.
      This extra step is unnecessary and we can always jump to use_dfl_pwq
      instead. Simplify the code by removing the conditional.
      This doesn't make any functional difference.

      workqueue: fix a possible race condition between rescuer and pwq-release · 77668c8b
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      There is a race condition between rescuer_thread() and
      pwq_unbound_release_workfn().
      
      Even after a pwq is scheduled for rescue, the associated work items
      may be consumed by any worker.  If all of them are consumed before the
      rescuer gets to them and the pwq's base ref was put due to attribute
      change, the pwq may be released while still being linked on
      @wq->maydays list making the rescuer dereference already freed pwq
      later.
      
      Make send_mayday() pin the target pwq until the rescuer is done with
      it.

      workqueue: make rescuer_thread() empty wq->maydays list before exiting · 4d595b86
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      After a @pwq is scheduled for emergency execution, other workers may
      consume the affectd work items before the rescuer gets to them.  This
      means that a workqueue many have pwqs queued on @wq->maydays list
      while not having any work item pending or in-flight.  If
      destroy_workqueue() executes in such condition, the rescuer may exit
      without emptying @wq->maydays.
      
      This currently doesn't cause any actual harm.  destroy_workqueue() can
      safely destroy all the involved data structures whether @wq->maydays
      is populated or not as nobody access the list once the rescuer exits.
      
      However, this is nasty and makes future development difficult.  Let's
      update rescuer_thread() so that it empties @wq->maydays after seeing
      should_stop to guarantee that the list is empty on rescuer exit.

      sym53c8xx_2: Set DID_REQUEUE return code when aborting squeue · fd1232b2
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      This patch fixes I/O errors with the sym53c8xx_2 driver when the disk
      returns QUEUE FULL status.
      
      When the controller encounters an error (including QUEUE FULL or BUSY
      status), it aborts all not yet submitted requests in the function
      sym_dequeue_from_squeue.
      
      This function aborts them with DID_SOFT_ERROR.
      
      If the disk has full tag queue, the request that caused the overflow is
      aborted with QUEUE FULL status (and the scsi midlayer properly retries
      it until it is accepted by the disk), but the sym53c8xx_2 driver aborts
      the following requests with DID_SOFT_ERROR --- for them, the midlayer
      does just a few retries and then signals the error up to sd.
      
      The result is that disk returning QUEUE FULL causes request failures.
      
      The error was reproduced on 53c895 with COMPAQ BD03685A24 disk
      (rebranded ST336607LC) with command queue 48 or 64 tags.  The disk has
      64 tags, but under some access patterns it return QUEUE FULL when there
      are less than 64 pending tags.  The SCSI specification allows returning
      QUEUE FULL anytime and it is up to the host to retry.

      powerpc: Don't try to set LPCR unless we're in hypervisor mode · 18aa0da3
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Commit 8f619b54 ("powerpc/ppc64: Do not turn AIL (reloc-on
      interrupts) too early") added code to set the AIL bit in the LPCR
      without checking whether the kernel is running in hypervisor mode.  The
      result is that when the kernel is running as a guest (i.e., under
      PowerKVM or PowerVM), the processor takes a privileged instruction
      interrupt at that point, causing a panic.  The visible result is that
      the kernel hangs after printing "returning from prom_init".
      
      This fixes it by checking for hypervisor mode being available before
      setting LPCR.  If we are not in hypervisor mode, we enable relocation-on
      interrupts later in pSeries_setup_arch using the H_SET_MODE hcall.

      vti: don't allow to add the same tunnel twice · 8d89dcdf
      Nicolas Dichtel authored
      Before the patch, it was possible to add two times the same tunnel:
      ip l a vti1 type vti remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249 key 41
      ip l a vti2 type vti remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249 key 41
      
      It was possible, because ip_tunnel_newlink() calls ip_tunnel_find() with the
      argument dev->type, which was set only later (when calling ndo_init handler
      in register_netdevice()). Let's set this type in the setup handler, which is
      called before newlink handler.
      
      Introduced by commit b9959fd3 ("vti: switch to new ip tunnel code").

      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
      
      This series contains updates to e1000, e1000e, igb, igbvf, ixgb, ixgbe,
      ixgbevf and i40evf.
      
      Mark fixes an issue with ixgbe and ixgbevf by adding a bit to indicate
      when workqueues have been initialized.  This permits the register read
      error handling from attempting to use them prior to that, which also
      generates warnings.  Checking for a detected removal after initializing
      the work queues allows the probe function to return an error without
      getting the workqueue involved.  Further, if the error_detected
      callback is entered before the workqueues are initialized, exit without
      recovery since the device initialization was so truncated.
      
      Francois Romieu provides several patches to all the drivers to remove
      the open coded skb_cow_head.
      
      Jakub Kicinski provides a fix for igb where last_rx_timestamp should be
      updated only when Rx time stamp is read.
      
      Mitch provides a fix for i40evf where a recent change broke the RSS LUT

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
       "This includes the final patch to clean up and fix the issue with the
        design of tracepoints and how a user could register a tracepoint and
        have that tracepoint not be activated but no error was shown.
      
        The design was for an out of tree module but broke in tree users.  The
        clean up was to remove the saving of the hash table of tracepoint
        names such that they can be enabled before they exist (enabling a
        module tracepoint before that module is loaded).  This added more
        complexity than needed.  The clean up was to remove that code and just
        enable tracepoints that exist or fail if they do not.
      
        This removed a lot of code as well as the complexity that it brought.
        As a side effect, instead of registering a tracepoint by its name, the
        tracepoint needs to be registered with the tracepoint descriptor.
        This removes having to duplicate the tracepoint names that are
        enabled.
      
        The second patch was added that simplified the way modules were
        searched for.
      
        This cleanup required changes that were in the 3.15 queue as well as
        some changes that were added late in the 3.14-rc cycle.  This final
        change waited till the two were merged in upstream and then the change
        was added and full tests were run.  Unfortunately, the test found some
        errors, but after it was already submitted to the for-next branch and
        not to be rebased.  Sparse errors were detected by Fengguang Wu's bot
        tests, and my internal tests discovered that the anonymous union
        initialization triggered a bug in older gcc compilers.  Luckily, there
        was a bugzilla for the gcc bug which gave a work around to the
        problem.  The third and fourth patch handled the sparse error and the
        gcc bug respectively.
      
        A final patch was tagged along to fix a missing documentation for the
        README file"

      missing bits of "splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses" · a786c06d
      Al Viro authored
      that commit has fixed only the parts of that mess in fs/splice.c itself;
      there had been more in several other ->splice_read() instances...

      cifs: fix the race in cifs_writev() · 19dfc1f5
      Al Viro authored
      O_APPEND handling there hadn't been completely fixed by Pavel's
      patch; it checks the right value, but it's racy - we can't really
      do that until i_mutex has been taken.
      
      Fix by switching to __generic_file_aio_write() (open-coding
      generic_file_aio_write(), actually) and pulling mutex_lock() above
      inode_size_read().
