      md: Wait for md_check_recovery before attempting device removal. · 90f5f7ad
      Hannes Reinecke authored
      When a device has failed, it needs to be removed from the personality
      module before it can be removed from the array as a whole.
      The first step is performed by md_check_recovery() which is called
      from the raid management thread.
      
      So when a HOT_REMOVE ioctl arrives, wait briefly for md_check_recovery
      to have run.  This increases the chance that the ioctl will succeed.

      DM RAID: Fix raid_resume not reviving failed devices in all cases · a4dc163a

      DM RAID:  Fix raid_resume not reviving failed devices in all cases
      
      When a device fails in a RAID array, it is marked as Faulty.  Later,
      md_check_recovery is called which (through the call chain) calls
      'hot_remove_disk' in order to have the personalities remove the device
      from use in the array.
      
      Sometimes, it is possible for the array to be suspended before the
      personalities get their chance to perform 'hot_remove_disk'.  This is
      normally not an issue.  If the array is deactivated, then the failed
      device will be noticed when the array is reinstantiated.  If the
      array is resumed and the disk is still missing, md_check_recovery will
      be called upon resume and 'hot_remove_disk' will be called at that
      time.  However, (for dm-raid) if the device has been restored,
      a resume on the array would cause it to attempt to revive the device
      by calling 'hot_add_disk'.  If 'hot_remove_disk' had not been called,
      a situation is then created where the device is thought to concurrently
      be the replacement and the device to be replaced.  Thus, the device
      is first sync'ed with the rest of the array (because it is the replacement
      device) and then marked Faulty and removed from the array (because
      it is also the device being replaced).
      
      The solution is to check and see if the device had properly been removed
      before the array was suspended.  This is done by seeing whether the
      device's 'raid_disk' field is -1 - a condition that implies that
      'md_check_recovery -> remove_and_add_spares (where raid_disk is set to -1)
      -> hot_remove_disk' has been called.  If 'raid_disk' is not -1, then
      'hot_remove_disk' must be called to complete the removal of the previously
      faulty device before it can be revived via 'hot_add_disk'.

      DM RAID: Add ability to restore transiently failed devices on resume · 9092c02d

      DM RAID: Add ability to restore transiently failed devices on resume
      
      This patch adds code to the resume function to check over the devices
      in the RAID array.  If any are found to be marked as failed and their
      superblocks can be read, an attempt is made to reintegrate them into
      the array.  This allows the user to refresh the array with a simple
      suspend and resume of the array - rather than having to load a
      completely new table, allocate and initialize all the structures and
      throw away the old instantiation.

       "I must confess that this past merge window was not RCU's best showing.
        This series contains three more fixes for RCU regressions:
      
         1.   A fix to __DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() that causes it to act as an
              interrupt from idle rather than as a task switch from idle.
              This change is needed due to the recent use of _rcuidle()
              tracepoints that can be invoked from interrupt handlers as well
              as from idle.  Without this fix, invoking _rcuidle() tracepoints
              from interrupt handlers results in splats and (more seriously)
              confusion on RCU's part as to whether a given CPU is idle or not.
              This confusion can in turn result in too-short grace periods and
              therefore random memory corruption.
      
         2.   A fix to a subtle deadlock that could result due to RCU doing
              a wakeup while holding one of its rcu_node structure's locks.
              Although the probability of occurrence is low, it really
              does happen.  The fix, courtesy of Steven Rostedt, uses
              irq_work_queue() to avoid the deadlock.
      
         3.   A fix to a silent deadlock (invisible to lockdep) due to the
              interaction of timeouts posted by RCU debug code enabled by
              CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_DELAY=y, grace-period initialization, and CPU
              hotplug operations.  This will not occur in production kernels,

      md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in place · 5026d7a9
      H. Peter Anvin authored
      There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME
      command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact,
      support WRITE SAME.  This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a
      SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can
      happen, including drive firmware bugs.
      
      After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the
      request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the
      failure as fatal and consider the drive failed.  This has the effect
      that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each
      offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss.
      
      However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't
      ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should
      be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs
      to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero.
      
      Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for
      raid1, raid5, and raid10.
      
      [neilb: added raid5]
      
      This patch is appropriate for any -stable since 3.7 when write_same
      support was added.

      md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places. · e2d59925
      NeilBrown authored
      Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they
      really should call freeze_array.
      The former is only intended to be called from "make_request".
      The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to
      flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the
      management thread.
      
      Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock.  Using freeze_array
      should not.
      
      As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in
      handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass
      it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore.
      
      The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits
      050b6615 (raid10) and 6b740b8d (raid1) which
      appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable
      kernel since then.
      
      This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and
      will need to be applied by hand.

      md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and non-rebuilding drive completed it.
      
      Without that fix, the following scenario could happen:
      
      - RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding
      - Drive A fails
      - WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so
      r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B
      succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as
      R1BIO_Uptodate.
      - r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled,
      md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive
      of raid1
      - raid_end_bio_io()  calls call_bio_endio()
      - As a result, in call_bio_endio():
              if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state))
                      clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags);
      this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master
      WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer.
      
      So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written
      the data onto the rebuilding drive only. But when we want to read the
      data back, we would not read from the rebuilding drive, so this data
      is lost.
      
      [neilb - applied identical change to raid10 as well]
      
      This bug can result in lost data, so it is suitable for any
      -stable kernel.

      md: md_stop_writes() should always freeze recovery. · 6b6204ee
      NeilBrown authored
      __md_stop_writes() will currently sometimes freeze recovery.
      So any caller must be ready for that to happen, and indeed they are.
      
      However if __md_stop_writes() doesn't freeze_recovery, then
      a recovery could start before mddev_suspend() is called, which
      could be awkward.  This can particularly cause problems or dm-raid.
      
      So change __md_stop_writes() to always freeze recovery.  This is safe
      and more predicatable.

      mm: memcontrol: fix lockless reclaim hierarchy iterator · 89dc991f
      Johannes Weiner authored
      The lockless reclaim hierarchy iterator currently has a misplaced
      barrier that can lead to use-after-free crashes.
      
      The reclaim hierarchy iterator consist of a sequence count and a
      position pointer that are read and written locklessly, with memory
      barriers enforcing ordering.
      
      The write side sets the position pointer first, then updates the
      sequence count to "publish" the new position.  Likewise, the read side
      must read the sequence count first, then the position.  If the sequence
      count is up to date, it's guaranteed that the position is up to date as
      well:
      
        writer:                         reader:
        iter->position = position       if iter->sequence == expected:
        smp_wmb()                           smp_rmb()
        iter->sequence = sequence           position = iter->position
      
      However, the read side barrier is currently misplaced, which can lead to
      dereferencing stale position pointers that no longer point to valid
      memory.  Fix this.

      frontswap: fix incorrect zeroing and allocation size for frontswap_map · 7b57976d
      Akinobu Mita authored
      The bitmap accessed by bitops must have enough size to hold the required
      numbers of bits rounded up to a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.  And the
      bitmap must not be zeroed by memset() if the number of bits cleared is
      not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.
      
      This fixes incorrect zeroing and allocation size for frontswap_map.  The
      incorrect zeroing part doesn't cause any problem because frontswap_map
      is freed just after zeroing.  But the wrongly calculated allocation size
      may cause the problem.
      
      For 32bit systems, the allocation size of frontswap_map is about twice
      as large as required size.  For 64bit systems, the allocation size is
      smaller than requeired if the number of bits is not a multiple of
      BITS_PER_LONG.

      Chen Gang authored
      audit_add_tree_rule() must set 'rule->tree = NULL;' firstly, to protect
      the rule itself freed in kill_rules().
      
      The reason is when it is killed, the 'rule' itself may have already
      released, we should not access it.  one example: we add a rule to an
      inode, just at the same time the other task is deleting this inode.
      
      The work flow for adding a rule:
      
          audit_receive() -> (need audit_cmd_mutex lock)

                          tag_trunk() ->
                            create_trunk() -> (assume it is 1st rule)
                              fsnotify_add_mark() ->

      mm: migration: add migrate_entry_wait_huge() · 30dad309
      Naoya Horiguchi authored
      When we have a page fault for the address which is backed by a hugepage
      under migration, the kernel can't wait correctly and do busy looping on
      hugepage fault until the migration finishes.  As a result, users who try
      to kick hugepage migration (via soft offlining, for example) occasionally
      experience long delay or soft lockup.
      
      This is because pte_offset_map_lock() can't get a correct migration entry
      or a correct page table lock for hugepage.  This patch introduces
      migration_entry_wait_huge() to solve this.

      mm/page_alloc.c: fix watermark check in __zone_watermark_ok() · 026b0814
      Tomasz Stanislawski authored
      The watermark check consists of two sub-checks.  The first one is:
      
      	if (free_pages <= min + lowmem_reserve)
      		return false;
      
      The check assures that there is minimal amount of RAM in the zone.  If
      CMA is used then the free_pages is reduced by the number of free pages
      in CMA prior to the over-mentioned check.
      
      	if (!(alloc_flags & ALLOC_CMA))
      		free_pages -= zone_page_state(z, NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES);
      
      This prevents the zone from being drained from pages available for
      non-movable allocations.
      
      The second check prevents the zone from getting too fragmented.
      
      	for (o = 0; o < order; o++) {
      		free_pages -= z->free_area[o].nr_free << o;
      		min >>= 1;
      		if (free_pages <= min)
      			return false;
      	}
      
      The field z->free_area[o].nr_free is equal to the number of free pages
      including free CMA pages.  Therefore the CMA pages are subtracted twice.
      This may cause a false positive fail of __zone_watermark_ok() if the CMA
      area gets strongly fragmented.  In such a case there are many 0-order
      free pages located in CMA.  Those pages are subtracted twice therefore
      they will quickly drain free_pages during the check against
      fragmentation.  The test fails even though there are many free non-cma
      pages in the zone.
      
      This patch fixes this issue by subtracting CMA pages only for a purpose of
      (free_pages <= min + lowmem_reserve) check.
      
      Laura said:
      
        We were observing allocation failures of higher order pages (order 5 =
        128K typically) under tight memory conditions resulting in driver
        failure.  The output from the page allocation failure showed plenty of
        free pages of the appropriate order/type/zone and mostly CMA pages in
        the lower orders.
      
        For full disclosure, we still observed some page allocation failures
        even after applying the patch but the number was drastically reduced and
        those failures were attributed to fragmentation/other system issues.

      aio: fix io_destroy() regression by using call_rcu() · 4fcc712f
      Kent Overstreet authored
      There was a regression introduced by 36f55889 ("aio: refcounting
      cleanup"), reported by Jens Axboe - the refcounting cleanup switched to
      using RCU in the shutdown path, but the synchronize_rcu() was done in
      the context of the io_destroy() syscall greatly increasing the time it
      could block.
      
      This patch switches it to call_rcu() and makes shutdown asynchronous
      (more asynchronous than it was originally; before the refcount changes
      io_destroy() would still wait on pending kiocbs).
      
      Note that there's a global quota on the max outstanding kiocbs, and that
      quota must be manipulated synchronously; otherwise io_setup() could
      return -EAGAIN when there isn't quota available, and userspace won't
      have any way of waiting until shutdown of the old kioctxs has finished
      (besides busy looping).
      
      So we release our quota before kioctx shutdown has finished, which
      should be fine since the quota never corresponded to anything real
      anyways.

      zero).

      rtc-at91rm9200: add shadow interrupt mask · e9f08bbe
      Johan Hovold authored
      Add shadow interrupt-mask register which can be used on SoCs where the
      actual hardware register is broken.
      
      Note that some care needs to be taken to make sure the shadow mask
      corresponds to the actual hardware state.  The added overhead is not an
      issue for the non-broken SoCs due to the relatively infrequent
      interrupt-mask updates.  We do, however, only use the shadow mask value
      as a fall-back when it actually needed as there is still a theoretical
      possibility that the mask is incorrect (see the code for details).

      Add accessors for the interrupt register.
      
      This will allow us to easily add a shadow interrupt-mask register to use
      on SoCs where the interrupt-mask register cannot be used.

      rtc-at91rm9200: add match-table compile guard · 558c61e5
      Johan Hovold authored
      The members of Atmel's at91sam9x5 family (9x5) have a broken RTC
      interrupt mask register (AT91_RTC_IMR).  It does not reflect enabled
      interrupts but instead always returns zero.
      
      The kernel's rtc-at91rm9200 driver handles the RTC for the 9x5 family.
      Currently when the date/time is set, an interrupt is generated and this
      driver neglects to handle the interrupt.  The kernel complains about the
      un-handled interrupt and disables it henceforth.  This not only breaks
      the RTC function, but since that interrupt is shared (Atmel's SYS
      interrupt) then other things break as well (e.g.  the debug port no
      longer accepts characters).
      
      Tested on the at91sam9g25.  Bug confirmed by Atmel.
      
      This patch (of 5):
      
      Add missing match-table compile guard.

      swap: avoid read_swap_cache_async() race to deadlock while waiting on discard I/O completion · cbab0e4e
      Rafael Aquini authored
      read_swap_cache_async() can race against get_swap_page(), and stumble
      across a SWAP_HAS_CACHE entry in the swap map whose page wasn't brought
      into the swapcache yet.
      
      This transient swap_map state is expected to be transitory, but the
      actual placement of discard at scan_swap_map() inserts a wait for I/O
      completion thus making the thread at read_swap_cache_async() to loop
      around its -EEXIST case, while the other end at get_swap_page() is
      scheduled away at scan_swap_map().  This can leave the system deadlocked
      if the I/O completion happens to be waiting on the CPU waitqueue where
      read_swap_cache_async() is busy looping and !CONFIG_PREEMPT.
      
      This patch introduces a cond_resched() call to make the aforementioned
      read_swap_cache_async() busy loop condition to bail out when necessary,
      thus avoiding the subtle race window.

      drivers/rtc/rtc-twl.c: fix missing device_init_wakeup() when booted with device tree · 24b8256a
      Tony Lindgren authored
      When booted in legacy mode device_init_wakeup() gets called by
      drivers/mfd/twl-core.c when the children are initialized.  However, when
      booted using device tree, the children are created with
      of_platform_populate() instead add_children().
      
      This means that the RTC driver will not have device_init_wakeup() set,
      and we need to call it from the driver probe like RTC drivers typically
      do.
      
      Without this we cannot test PM wake-up events on omaps for cases where
      there may not be any physical wake-up event.

      cciss: fix broken mutex usage in ioctl · 03f47e88
      Stephen M. Cameron authored
      If a new logical drive is added and the CCISS_REGNEWD ioctl is invoked
      (as is normal with the Array Configuration Utility) the process will
      hang as below.  It attempts to acquire the same mutex twice, once in
      do_ioctl() and once in cciss_unlocked_open().  The BKL was recursive,
      the mutex isn't.

      This mutex usage was added into the ioctl path when the big kernel lock
      was removed.  As it turns out, these paths are all thread safe anyway
      (or can easily be made so) and we don't want ioctl() to be single
      threaded in any case.

      audit: wait_for_auditd() should use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE · f000cfdd
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      audit_log_start() does wait_for_auditd() in a loop until
      audit_backlog_wait_time passes or audit_skb_queue has a room.
      
      If signal_pending() is true this becomes a busy-wait loop, schedule() in
      TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE won't block.
      
      Thanks to Guy for fully investigating and explaining the problem.
      
      (akpm: that'll cause the system to lock up on a non-preemptible
      uniprocessor kernel)
