Instead of using simple_strtoul which "converts" invalid numbers to 0, use strict_strtoul and perform error checking to ensure that userspace passes us a valid unsigned long. This addresses problems with functions such as writev, which might want to write a trailing newline -- the newline should rightfully be rejected, but the value preceeding it should be preserved.

Previously, there was bio_clone() but it only allocated from the fs bio set; as a result various users were open coding it and using __bio_clone(). This changes bio_clone() to become bio_clone_bioset(), and then we add bio_clone() and bio_clone_kmalloc() as wrappers around it, making use of the functionality the last patch adedd. This will also help in a later patch changing how bio cloning works.

Previously, bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() behaved slightly different because there was some almost-duplicated code - this fixes some of that. The important change is that previously bio_kmalloc() always set bi_io_vec = bi_inline_vecs, even if nr_iovecs == 0 - unlike bio_alloc_bioset(). This would cause bio_has_data() to return true; I don't know if this resulted in any actual bugs but it was certainly wrong. bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() also have different arbitrary limits on nr_iovecs - 1024 (UIO_MAXIOV) for bio_kmalloc(), 256 (BIO_MAX_PAGES) for bio_alloc_bioset(). This patch doesn't fix that, but at least they're enforced closer together and hopefully they will be fixed in a later patch. This'll also help with some future cleanups - there are a fair number of functions that allocate bios (e.g. bio_clone()), and now they don't have to be duplicated for bio_alloc(), bio_alloc_bioset(), and bio_kmalloc().

Now that we've got generic code for freeing bios allocated from bio pools, this isn't needed anymore. This patch also makes bio_free() static, since without bi_destructor there should be no need for it to be called anywhere else. bio_free() is now only called from bio_put, so we can refactor those a bit - move some code from bio_put() to bio_free() and kill the redundant bio->bi_next = NULL. v5: Switch to BIO_KMALLOC_POOL ((void *)~0), per Boaz v6: BIO_KMALLOC_POOL now NULL, drop bio_free's EXPORT_SYMBOL v7: No #define BIO_KMALLOC_POOL anymore Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Reusing bios is something that's been highly frowned upon in the past, but driver code keeps doing it anyways. If it's going to happen anyways, we should provide a generic method. This'll help with getting rid of bi_destructor - drivers/block/pktcdvd.c was open coding it, by doing a bio_init() and resetting bi_destructor. This required reordering struct bio, but the block layer is not yet nearly fast enough for any cacheline effects to matter here. v5: Add a define BIO_RESET_BITS, to be very explicit about what parts of bio->bi_flags are saved. v6: Further commenting verbosity, per Tejun v9: Add a function comment Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Previously, dm_rq_clone_bio_info needed to be freed by the bio's destructor to avoid a memory leak in the blk_rq_prep_clone() error path. This gets rid of a memory allocation and means we can kill dm_rq_bio_destructor. The _rq_bio_info_cache kmem cache is unused now and needs to be deleted, but due to the way io_pool is used and overloaded this looks not quite trivial so I'm leaving it for a later patch. v6: Fix comment on struct dm_rq_clone_bio_info, per Tejun Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Alasdair Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

With the old code, when you allocate a bio from a bio pool you have to implement your own destructor that knows how to find the bio pool the bio was originally allocated from. This adds a new field to struct bio (bi_pool) and changes bio_alloc_bioset() to use it.

Commit 644595f8 ("compat: Handle COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/socket.c") introduced a bug where the helper functions to take either a 64-bit or compat time[spec|val] got the arguments in the wrong order, passing the kernel stack pointer off as a user pointer (and vice versa). Because of the user address range check, that in turn then causes an EFAULT due to the user pointer range checking failing for the kernel address. Incorrectly resuling in a failed system call for 32-bit processes with a 64-bit kernel. On odder architectures like HP-PA (with separate user/kernel address spaces), it can be used read kernel memory.

patch_instruction() can be called very early on ppc32, when the kernel isn't yet running at it's linked address. That can cause the ! is_kernel_addr() test in __put_user() to trip and call might_sleep() which is very bad at that point during boot. Use a lower level function instead for now, at least until we get to rework ppc32 boot process to do the code patching later, like ppc64 does.

We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state. This happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote() is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in smp_ipi_demux(). Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing for it to do. In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule() is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(), this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux(). The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and scheduler_ipi(). In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers. Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that ipi_message is not just accessed locally. This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations. Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO store. This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases. These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on different cores of a POWER7 machine. The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly is due to Milton Miller.

During a context switch we always restore the per thread DSCR value. If we aren't doing explicit DSCR management (ie thread.dscr_inherit == 0) and the default DSCR changed while the process has been sleeping we end up with the wrong value. Check thread.dscr_inherit and select the default DSCR or per thread DSCR as required. This was found with the following test case, when running with more threads than CPUs (ie forcing context switching): http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_default_test.c With the four patches applied I can run a combination of all test cases successfully at the same time: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_default_test.c http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_explicit_test.c http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_inherit_test.cSigned-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # 3.0+ Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

If the default DSCR is non zero we set thread.dscr_inherit in copy_thread() meaning the new thread and all its children will ignore future updates to the default DSCR. This is not intended and is a change in behaviour that a number of our users have hit. We just need to inherit thread.dscr and thread.dscr_inherit from the parent which ends up being much simpler.

When we update the DSCR either via emulation of mtspr(DSCR) or via a change to dscr_default in sysfs we don't update thread.dscr. We will eventually update it at context switch time but there is a period where thread.dscr is incorrect. If we fork at this point we will copy the old value of thread.dscr into the child. To avoid this, always keep thread.dscr in sync with reality.

Writing to dscr_default in sysfs doesn't actually change the DSCR - we rely on a context switch on each CPU to do the work.

The CPU hotplug code for the powernv platform currently only puts offline CPUs into nap mode if the powersave_nap variable is set. However, HV-style KVM on this platform requires secondary CPU threads to be offline and in nap mode. Since we know nap mode works just fine on all POWER7 machines, and the only machines that support the powernv platform are POWER7 machines, this changes the code to always put offline CPUs into nap mode, regardless of powersave_nap. Powersave_nap still controls whether or not CPUs go into nap mode when idle, as before.

At the moment the handler for hypervisor decrementer interrupts is the same as for decrementer interrupts, i.e. timer_interrupt(). This is bogus; if we ever do get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt it won't have anything to do with the next timer event. In fact the only time we get hypervisor decrementer interrupts is when one is left pending on exit from a KVM guest. When we get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt we don't need to do anything special to clear it, since they are edge-triggered on the transition of HDEC from 0 to -1. Thus this adds an empty handler function for them. We don't need to have them masked when interrupts are soft-disabled, so we use STD_EXCEPTION_HV instead of MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_HV.

This turned out to be due to memory corruption caused by long-broken PIO code in drivers/mmc/host/omap.c. (Previously, this driver had been using DMA; but the above commit caused the MMC driver to fall back to PIO mode with an unmodified Kconfig.) The PIO code, added with the rest of the driver in commit 730c9b7e ("[MMC] Add OMAP MMC host driver"), confused bytes with 16-bit words. This bug caused memory located after the PIO transfer buffer to be corrupted with transfers larger than 32 bytes. The driver also did not increment the buffer pointer after the transfer occurred. This bug resulted in data corruption during any transfer larger than 64 bytes.

Specifically, there is a bug in the eMMC firmware that causes unrecoverable corruption when the MMC is erased with MMC_CAP_ERASE enabled.

The documentation for the dw_mmc part says that the low power mode should normally only be set for MMC and SD memory and should be turned off for SDIO cards that need interrupts detected. The best place I could find to do this is when the SDIO interrupt was first enabled. I rely on the fact that dw_mci_setup_bus() will be called when it's time to reenable.

Data transfer will be continued until all the bytes are transmitted, even if data crc error occurs during a multiple-block data transfer. This means RXDR/TXDR interrupts will occurs until data transfer is terminated. Early setting of host->sg to NULL prevents going into xxx_data_pio functions, hence permanent unhandled RXDR/TXDR interrupts occurs. And checking error interrupt status in the xxx_data_pio functions is no need because dw_mci_interrupt does do the same. This patch also removes it.

Datasheet of SYNOPSYS mentions that DTO(Data Transfer Over) interrupt will be raised even if some error interrupts, however it is actually found that DTO does not occur. SYNOPSYS has confirmed this issue. Current implementation defers the call of tasklet_schedule until DTO when the error interrupts is happened. This patch fixes error handling.
