Add a wrapper around rpc_call_sync that handles -EKEYEXPIRED errors from the RPC layer as it would an -EJUKEBOX error if NFSv2 had such a thing. Also, add a handler for that error for async calls that makes it resubmit the RPC on -EKEYEXPIRED.

We're using -EKEYEXPIRED to indicate that a krb5 credcache contains an expired ticket and that we should have the NFS layer retry the RPC call instead of returning an error back to the caller.

Jeff Layton authored
If a KRB5 TGT ticket expires, we don't want to return an error immediatel. If someone has a long running job and just forgets to run "kinit" in time then this will make it fail. Instead, we want to treat this situation as we would NFS4ERR_DELAY and retry the upcall after delaying a bit with an exponential backoff. This patch just makes any place that would handle NFS4ERR_DELAY also handle -EKEYEXPIRED the same way. In the future, we may want to be more sophisticated however and handle hard vs. soft mounts differently, or specify some upper limit on how long we'll wait for a new TGT to be acquired.

The kernel currently ignores any error code sent by gssd and always considers it to be -EACCES. In order to better handle the situation of an expired KRB5 TGT, the kernel needs to be able to parse and deal with the errors that gssd sends. Aside from -EACCES the only error we care about is -EKEYEXPIRED, which we're using to indicate that the upper layers should retry the call a little later. To maintain backward compatibility with older gssd's, any error other than -EKEYEXPIRED is interpreted as -EACCES.

* 'for-linus' of git://neil.brown.name/md: md: fix some lockdep issues between md and sysfs. md: fix 'degraded' calculation when starting a reshape.
-
NeilBrown authored
====== This fix is related to http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15142 but does not address that exact issue. ====== sysfs does like attributes being removed while they are being accessed (i.e. read or written) and waits for the access to complete. As accessing some md attributes takes the same lock that is held while removing those attributes a deadlock can occur. This patch addresses 3 issues in md that could lead to this deadlock. Two relate to calling flush_scheduled_work while the lock is held. This is probably a bad idea in general and as we use schedule_work to delete various sysfs objects it is particularly bad. In one case flush_scheduled_work is called from md_alloc (called by md_probe) called from do_md_run which holds the lock. This call is only present to ensure that ->gendisk is set. However we can be sure that gendisk is always set (though possibly we couldn't when that code was originally written. This is because do_md_run is called in three different contexts: 1/ from md_ioctl. This requires that md_open has succeeded, and it fails if ->gendisk is not set. 2/ from writing a sysfs attribute. This can only happen if the mddev has been registered in sysfs which happens in md_alloc after ->gendisk has been set. 3/ from autorun_array which is only called by autorun_devices, which checks for ->gendisk to be set before calling autorun_array. So the call to md_probe in do_md_run can be removed, and the check on ->gendisk can also go. In the other case flush_scheduled_work is being called in do_md_stop, purportedly to wait for all md_delayed_delete calls (which delete the component rdevs) to complete. However there really isn't any need to wait for them - they have already been disconnected in all important ways. The third issue is that raid5->stop() removes some attribute names while the lock is held. There is already some infrastructure in place to delay attribute removal until after the lock is released (using schedule_work). So extend that infrastructure to remove the raid5_attrs_group. This does not address all lockdep issues related to the sysfs "s_active" lock. The rest can be address by splitting that lockdep context between symlinks and non-symlinks which hopefully will happen.

This code was written long ago when it was not possible to reshape a degraded array. Now it is so the current level of degraded-ness needs to be taken in to account. Also newly addded devices should only reduce degradedness if they are deemed to be in-sync. In particular, if you convert a RAID5 to a RAID6, and increase the number of devices at the same time, then the 5->6 conversion will make the array degraded so the current code will produce a wrong value for 'degraded' - "-1" to be precise. If the reshape runs to completion end_reshape will calculate a correct new value for 'degraded', but if a device fails during the reshape an incorrect decision might be made based on the incorrect value of "degraded". This patch is suitable for 2.6.32-stable and if they are still open, 2.6.31-stable and 2.6.30-stable as well.

Commit f39bde24 fixed the error return from PUTROOTFH in the case where there is no pseudofilesystem. This is really a case we shouldn't hit on a correctly configured server: in the absence of a root filehandle, there's no point accepting version 4 NFS rpc calls at all. But the shared responsibility between kernel and userspace here means the kernel on its own can't eliminate the possiblity of this happening. And we have indeed gotten this wrong in distro's, so new client-side mount code that attempts to negotiate v4 by default first has to work around this case. Therefore when commit f39bde24 arrived at roughly the same time as the new v4-default mount code, which explicitly checked only for the previous error, the result was previously fine mounts suddenly failing. We'll fix both sides for now: revert the error change, and make the client-side mount workaround more robust. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

A DVB demultiplexer device can be used to set up either a PES filter or a section filter. In the former case, the ts field of the feed union of struct dmxdev_filter is used, in the latter case the sec field of the same union is used. The ts field is a struct list_head, and is currently initialized in the open() method of the demux device. When for a given demuxer a section filter is set up, the sec field is played with, thus if a PES filter needs to be set up after that the ts field will be corrupted, causing a kernel oops. This fix moves the list head initialization to dvb_dmxdev_pes_filter_set(), so that the ts field is properly initialized every time a PES filter is set up.

The code to track the CPPR values added by commit 49bd3647 ("powerpc/pseries: Track previous CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") broke kexec on pseries because the kexec code in xics.c calls xics_set_cpu_priority() before the IPI has been EOI'ed. This wasn't a problem previously but it now triggers a BUG_ON in xics_set_cpu_priority() because os_cppr->index isn't 0. Fix this problem by setting the index on the CPPR stack to 0 before calling xics_set_cpu_priority() in xics_teardown_cpu(). Also make it clear that we only want to set the priority when there's just one CPPR value in the stack, and enforce it by updating the value of os_cppr->stack[0] rather than os_cppr->stack[os_cppr->index]. While we're at it change the BUG_ON to a WARN_ON.

Unfortunately, due to poor DWARF info in current toolchains, unwinding through interrutps cannot be done reliably. The problem is that the DWARF info for function epilogues is wrong. Take this standard epilogue sequence, 80003cc4: e3 6f mov r14,r15 80003cc6: 26 4f lds.l @r15+,pr 80003cc8: f6 6e mov.l @r15+,r14 <---- interrupt here 80003cca: f6 6b mov.l @r15+,r11 80003ccc: f6 6a mov.l @r15+,r10 80003cce: f6 69 mov.l @r15+,r9 80003cd0: 0b 00 rts If we take an interrupt at the highlighted point, the DWARF info will bogusly claim that the return address can be found at some offset from the frame pointer, even though the frame pointer was just restored. The worst part is if the unwinder finds a text address at the bogus stack address - unwinding will continue, for a bit, until it finally comes across an unexpected address on the stack and blows up. The only solution is to stop unwinding once we've calculated the function that was executing when the interrupt occurred. This PC can be easily calculated from pt_regs->pc.

The address that ret_from_exception and ret_from_irq will return to is found in the stack slot for SPC, not PR. This error was causing the DWARF unwinder to pick up the wrong return address on the stack and then unwind using the unwind tables for the wrong function. While I'm here I might as well add CFI annotations for the other registers since they could be useful when unwinding.

This reverts commit 70362511 ("tty: fix race in tty_fasync") and commit b04da8bf ("fnctl: f_modown should call write_lock_irqsave/ restore") that tried to fix up some of the fallout but was incomplete. It turns out that we really cannot hold 'tty->ctrl_lock' over calling __f_setown, because not only did that cause problems with interrupt disables (which the second commit fixed), it also causes a potential ABBA deadlock due to lock ordering. Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for following up on the issue, and running lockdep to show the problem. It goes roughly like this: - f_getown gets filp->f_owner.lock for reading without interrupts disabled, so an interrupt that happens while that lock is held can cause a lockdep chain from f_owner.lock -> sighand->siglock. - at the same time, the tty->ctrl_lock -> f_owner.lock chain that commit 70362511 introduced, together with the pre-existing sighand->siglock -> tty->ctrl_lock chain means that we have a lock dependency the other way too. So instead of extending tty->ctrl_lock over the whole __f_setown() call, we now just take a reference to the 'pid' structure while holding the lock, and then release it after having done the __f_setown. That still guarantees that 'struct pid' won't go away from under us, which is all we really ever needed.
