The main 'md' thread is needed for processing writes, so if it blocks write requests could be delayed. Starting a new thread requires some GFP_KERNEL allocations and so can wait for writes to complete. This can deadlock. So instead, ask a workqueue to start the sync thread. There is no particular rush for this to happen, so any work queue will do. MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING is used to ensure only one thread is started.

We don't really need the full mddev_lock here, and having to drop it is messy. RCU is enough to protect these lists. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

printk may cause long time lapse if value of printk_delay in sysctl is configured large by user. If register_md_personality takes long time to print in spinlock pers_lock, we may encounter high CPU usage rate when there are other pers_lock competitors who may be blocked to spin. We can avoid this condition by moving printk out of coverage of pers_lock spinlock. Signed-off-by: Chao Yu <chao2.yu@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

In general we don't allow an array to be stopped if it is in use. However if the array hasn't really been started yet, then any apparent use is an anomily, probably due to 'udev' or similar having a look to see what is there. This means that if something goes wrong while assembling an array it cannot reliably be un-assembled - STOP_ARRAY could fail. There is no value here, so change do_md_stop() to succeed despite concurrent opens if the array has not yet been activated. i.e. if ->pers is NULL.

raid5: fix init_stripe() inconsistencies 1) remove_hash() is not necessary. We will only be called right after get_free_stripe(). There we have already a call to remove_hash(). 2) Tracing prints out the sector of the freed stripe and not the sector that we want to initialize. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

If two threads call bitmap_unplug at the same time, then one might schedule all the writes, and the other might decide that it doesn't need to wait. But really it does. It rarely hurts to wait when it isn't absolutely necessary, and the current code doesn't really focus on 'absolutely necessary' anyway. So just wait always. This can potentially lead to data corruption if a crash happens at an awkward time and data was written before the bitmap was updated. It is very unlikely, but this should go to -stable just to be safe. Appropriate for any -stable.

It has come to my attention (thanks Martin) that 'discard_zeroes_data' is only a hint. Some devices in some cases don't do what it says on the label. The use of DISCARD in RAID5 depends on reads from discarded regions being predictably zero. If a write to a previously discarded region performs a read-modify-write cycle it assumes that the parity block was consistent with the data blocks. If all were zero, this would be the case. If some are and some aren't this would not be the case. This could lead to data corruption after a device failure when data needs to be reconstructed from the parity. As we cannot trust 'discard_zeroes_data', ignore it by default and so disallow DISCARD on all raid4/5/6 arrays. As many devices are trustworthy, and as there are benefits to using DISCARD, add a module parameter to over-ride this caution and cause DISCARD to work if discard_zeroes_data is set. If a site want to enable DISCARD on some arrays but not on others they should select DISCARD support at the filesystem level, and set the raid456 module parameter. raid456.devices_handle_discard_safely=Y As this is a data-safety issue, I believe this patch is suitable for -stable.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo: "This is quite late but these need to be backported anyway. This is the fix for a long-standing cpuset bug which existed from 2009. cpuset makes use of PF_SPREAD_{PAGE|SLAB} flags to modify the task's memory allocation behavior according to the settings of the cpuset it belongs to; unfortunately, when those flags have to be changed, cpuset did so directly even whlie the target task is running, which is obviously racy as task->flags may be modified by the task itself at any time. This obscure bug manifested as corrupt PF_USED_MATH flag leading to a weird crash. The bug is fixed by moving the flag to task->atomic_flags. The first two are prepatory ones to help defining atomic_flags accessors and the third one is the actual fix" * 'for-3.17-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cpuset: PF_SPREAD_PAGE and PF_SPREAD_SLAB should be atomic flags sched: add macros to define bitops for task atomic flags sched: fix confusing PFA_NO_NEW_PRIVS constant

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson: "Here's our last set of fixes for 3.17. Most of these are for TI platforms, fixing some noisy Kconfig issues, runtime clock and power issues on several platforms and NAND timings on DRA7. There are also a couple of bug fixes for i.MX, one for QCOM and a small fix to avoid section mismatch noise on PXA. Diffstat looks large, partially due to some tables being updated and thus touching many lines. The qcom gsbi change also restructures clock management a bit and thus touches a bunch of lines. All in all, a bit more changes than we'd like at this point, but nothing stands out as risky either so it seems like the right thing to send it up now instead of holding it to the merge window" * tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: drivers/soc: qcom: do not disable the iface clock in probe ARM: imx: fix .is_enabled() of shared gate clock ARM: OMAP3: Fix I/O chain clock line assertion timed out error ARM: keystone: dts: fix bindings for pcie and usb clock nodes bus: omap_l3_noc: Fix connID for OMAP4 ARM: DT: imx53: fix lvds channel 1 port ARM: dts: cm-t54: fix serial console power supply.

Only exchange source and destination filenames if flags contain RENAME_EXCHANGE. In case if executable file was running and replaced by other file /proc/PID/exe should still show correct file name, not the old name of the file by which it was replaced. The scenario when this bug manifests itself was like this: * ALT Linux uses rpm and start-stop-daemon; * during a package upgrade rpm creates a temporary file for an executable to rename it upon successful unpacking; * start-stop-daemon is run subsequently and it obtains the (nonexistant) temporary filename via /proc/PID/exe thus failing to identify the running process. Note that "long" filenames (> DNAiME_INLINE_LEN) are still exchanged without RENAME_EXCHANGE and this behaviour exists long enough (should be fixed too apparently). So this patch is just an interim workaround that restores behavior for "short" names as it was before changes introduced by commit da1ce067 ("vfs: add cross-rename"). See https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/7/6 for details. AV: the comments about being more careful with ->d_name.hash than with ->d_name.name are from back in 2.3.40s; they became obsolete by 2.3.60s, when we started to unhash the target instead of swapping hash chain positions followed by d_delete() as we used to do when dcache was first introduced.

The third argument of fuse_get_user_pages() "nbytesp" refers to the number of bytes a caller asked to pack into fuse request. This value may be lesser than capacity of fuse request or iov_iter. So fuse_get_user_pages() must ensure that *nbytesp won't grow. Now, when helper iov_iter_get_pages() performs all hard work of extracting pages from iov_iter, it can be done by passing properly calculated "maxsize" to the helper. The other caller of iov_iter_get_pages() (dio_refill_pages()) doesn't need this capability, so pass LONG_MAX as the maxsize argument here.

This fixes the same bug as b43790ee ("mm: softdirty: don't forget to save file map softdiry bit on unmap") and 9aed8614 ("mm/memory.c: don't forget to set softdirty on file mapped fault") where the return value of pte_*mksoft_dirty was being ignored. To be sure that no other pte/pmd "mk" function return values were being ignored, I annotated the functions in arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h with __must_check and rebuilt. The userspace effect of this bug is that the softdirty mark might be lost if a file mapped pte get zapped.
