      padata: avoid race in reordering · 84bd21a7
      Jason A. Donenfeld authored
      commit de5540d0 upstream.
      
      Under extremely heavy uses of padata, crashes occur, and with list
      debugging turned on, this happens instead:
      
      [87487.298728] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 882 at lib/list_debug.c:33

      padata_reorder calls list_add_tail with the list to which its adding
      locked, which seems correct:
      
      spin_lock(&squeue->serial.lock);
      list_add_tail(&padata->list, &squeue->serial.list);
      spin_unlock(&squeue->serial.lock);
      
      This therefore leaves only place where such inconsistency could occur:
      if padata->list is added at the same time on two different threads.
      This pdata pointer comes from the function call to
      padata_get_next(pd), which has in it the following block:
      
      next_queue = per_cpu_ptr(pd->pqueue, cpu);
      padata = NULL;
      reorder = &next_queue->reorder;
      if (!list_empty(&reorder->list)) {
             padata = list_entry(reorder->list.next,
                                 struct padata_priv, list);
             spin_lock(&reorder->lock);
             list_del_init(&padata->list);
             atomic_dec(&pd->reorder_objects);
             spin_unlock(&reorder->lock);
      
             pd->processed++;
      
             goto out;
      }
      out:
      return padata;
      
      I strongly suspect that the problem here is that two threads can race
      on reorder list. Even though the deletion is locked, call to
      list_entry is not locked, which means it's feasible that two threads
      pick up the same padata object and subsequently call list_add_tail on
      them at the same time. The fix is thus be hoist that lock outside of
      that block.

      blk: Ensure users for current->bio_list can see the full list. · 5cca175b
      NeilBrown authored
      commit f5fe1b51 upstream.
      
      Commit 79bd9959 ("blk: improve order of bio handling in generic_make_request()")
      changed current->bio_list so that it did not contain *all* of the
      queued bios, but only those submitted by the currently running
      make_request_fn.
      
      There are two places which walk the list and requeue selected bios,
      and others that check if the list is empty.  These are no longer
      correct.
      
      So redefine current->bio_list to point to an array of two lists, which
      contain all queued bios, and adjust various code to test or walk both
      lists.

      blk: improve order of bio handling in generic_make_request() · 2cbd78f4
      NeilBrown authored
      commit 79bd9959 upstream.
      
      To avoid recursion on the kernel stack when stacked block devices
      are in use, generic_make_request() will, when called recursively,
      queue new requests for later handling.  They will be handled when the
      make_request_fn for the current bio completes.
      
      If any bios are submitted by a make_request_fn, these will ultimately
      be handled seqeuntially.  If the handling of one of those generates
      further requests, they will be added to the end of the queue.
      
      This strict first-in-first-out behaviour can lead to deadlocks in
      various ways, normally because a request might need to wait for a
      previous request to the same device to complete.  This can happen when
      they share a mempool, and can happen due to interdependencies
      particular to the device.  Both md and dm have examples where this happens.
      
      These deadlocks can be erradicated by more selective ordering of bios.
      Specifically by handling them in depth-first order.  That is: when the
      handling of one bio generates one or more further bios, they are
      handled immediately after the parent, before any siblings of the
      parent.  That way, when generic_make_request() calls make_request_fn
      for some particular device, we can be certain that all previously
      submited requests for that device have been completely handled and are
      not waiting for anything in the queue of requests maintained in
      generic_make_request().
      
      An easy way to achieve this would be to use a last-in-first-out stack
      instead of a queue.  However this will change the order of consecutive
      bios submitted by a make_request_fn, which could have unexpected consequences.
      Instead we take a slightly more complex approach.
      A fresh queue is created for each call to a make_request_fn.  After it completes,
      any bios for a different device are placed on the front of the main queue, followed
      by any bios for the same device, followed by all bios that were already on
      the queue before the make_request_fn was called.
      This provides the depth-first approach without reordering bios on the same level.
      
      This, by itself, it not enough to remove all deadlocks.  It just makes
      it possible for drivers to take the extra step required themselves.
      
      To avoid deadlocks, drivers must never risk waiting for a request
      after submitting one to generic_make_request.  This includes never
      allocing from a mempool twice in the one call to a make_request_fn.
      
      A common pattern in drivers is to call bio_split() in a loop, handling
      the first part and then looping around to possibly split the next part.
      Instead, a driver that finds it needs to split a bio should queue
      (with generic_make_request) the second part, handle the first part,
      and then return.  The new code in generic_make_request will ensure the
      requests to underlying bios are processed first, then the second bio
      that was split off.  If it splits again, the same process happens.  In
      each case one bio will be completely handled before the next one is attempted.
      
      With this is place, it should be possible to disable the
      punt_bios_to_recover() recovery thread for many block devices, and
      eventually it may be possible to remove it completely.

      KVM: kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev() should never fail · 42462d23
      David Hildenbrand authored
      commit 90db1043 upstream.
      
      No caller currently checks the return value of
      kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev(). This is evil, as all callers silently go on
      freeing their device. A stale reference will remain in the io_bus,
      getting at least used again, when the iobus gets teared down on
      kvm_destroy_vm() - leading to use after free errors.
      
      There is nothing the callers could do, except retrying over and over
      again.
      
      So let's simply remove the bus altogether, print an error and make
      sure no one can access this broken bus again (returning -ENOMEM on any
      attempt to access it).

      rtc: s35390a: improve irq handling · 3a1246b4
      Uwe Kleine-König authored
      commit 3bd32722 upstream.
      
      On some QNAP NAS devices the rtc can wake the machine. Several people
      noticed that once the machine was woken this way it fails to shut down.
      That's because the driver fails to acknowledge the interrupt and so it
      keeps active and restarts the machine immediatly after shutdown. See
      https://bugs.debian.org/794266 for a bug report.
      
      Doing this correctly requires to interpret the INT2 flag of the first read
      of the STATUS1 register because this bit is cleared by read.
      
      Note this is not maximally robust though because a pending irq isn't
      detected when the STATUS1 register was already read (and so INT2 is not
      set) but the irq was not disabled. But that is a hardware imposed problem
      that cannot easily be fixed by software.

      rtc: s35390a: implement reset routine as suggested by the reference · a55ae9d1
      Uwe Kleine-König authored
      commit 8e6583f1 upstream.
      
      There were two deviations from the reference manual: you have to wait
      half a second when POC is active and you might have to repeat
      initialization when POC or BLD are still set after the sequence.
      
      Note however that as POC and BLD are cleared by read the driver might
      not be able to detect that a reset is necessary. I don't have a good
      idea how to fix this.
      
      Additionally report the value read from STATUS1 to the caller. This
      prepares the next patch.

      rtc: s35390a: make sure all members in the output are set · fdd4bc93
      Uwe Kleine-König authored
      The rtc core calls the .read_alarm with all fields initialized to 0. As
      the s35390a driver doesn't touch some fields the returned date is
      interpreted as a date in January 1900. So make sure all fields are set
      to -1; some of them are then overwritten with the right data depending
      on the hardware state.
      
      In mainline this is done by commit d68778b8 ("rtc: initialize output
      parameter for read alarm to "uninitialized"") in the core. This is
      considered to dangerous for stable as it might have side effects for
      other rtc drivers that might for example rely on alarm->time.tm_sec
      being initialized to 0.

      rtc: s35390a: fix reading out alarm · b3ed3864
      Uwe Kleine-König authored
      commit f87e904d upstream.
      
      There are several issues fixed in this patch:
      
       - When alarm isn't enabled, set .enabled to zero instead of returning
         -EINVAL.
       - Ignore how IRQ1 is configured when determining if IRQ2 is on.
       - The three alarm registers have an enable flag which must be
         evaluated.
       - The chip always triggers when the seconds register gets 0.
      
      Note that the rtc framework however doesn't handle the result correctly
      because it doesn't check wday being initialized and so interprets an
      alarm being set for 10:00 AM in three days as 10:00 AM tomorrow (or
      today if that's not over yet).
