2009-09-11[S390] cio: remove subchannel init_nameSebastian Ott
We used the init_name to set the console subchannels name early at the boot stage. With the patch cio: fix memleak in subchannel validation we moved the name setting to the point where we actually register the console subchannel. At this time we can do dynamic allocations and therefore use dev_set_name. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Ott <sebott@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2009-09-11[S390] cio: fix memleak in subchannel validationSebastian Ott
When scanning for new subchannels we have a code path where we allocate memory for a struct subchannel, set the device name (which is dynamically allocated now) and do a check if the underlying device is blacklisted - if so we free the subchannel structure. Since we have not set up refcounting at this stage, the device name's memory is lost. Fix this by moving the dev_set_name after the blacklist test. Note: With this patch the init_name for the console subchannel becomes virtually obsolete.

2009-09-11[S390] cio: fix use after free in s390 debug featureSebastian Ott
When using s390dbf with "%s" in sprintf format strings the string itself is not copied to the dbf buffer. Since in this case only pointers are stored in the s390dbf, we should not use dev_name - which is bound to the lifetime of the device. Reading this entry from s390dbf after the device was released will cause an use after free error.

2009-09-11[S390] cio: failing set online/offline processing.Michael Ernst
When unit checks trigger sensing the device state is set to W4SENSE until sense completion; then the device state is set back to ONLINE. If a unit check occurs while set online or set offline requests are processed then it might happen that the device's temporary W4SENSE state causes these functions to terminate, leaving the device in an inconsistent state when the state is set back to ONLINE later on so that the device cannot be set online or offline any longer. To solve this, set online/offline and related rollback or error routines are processed only if the device is in a final or DISCONNECTED state.

2009-09-11[S390] cio: ensure to hold a reference for deferred deregistrationSebastian Ott
Ensure to always hold an extra device reference for scheduling a subchannel deregistration, by moving the get_device to ccw_device_schedule_sch_unregister. This fixes an use after free error in ccw_device_call_sch_unregister where put_device was called on an already freed device structure.

2009-09-11[S390] cio: fix ineffective verify eventPeter Oberparleiter
Path verification events occurring for offline devices are currently ignored. As a result, offline devices are not removed, even though they might no longer be accessible (for example because the last path to the device was varied offline). Fix this by scheduling a status evaluation for the affected subchannel when a path verification event occurs.

2009-09-11writeback: switch to per-bdi threads for flushing dataJens Axboe
This gets rid of pdflush for bdi writeout and kupdated style cleaning. pdflush writeout suffers from lack of locality and also requires more threads to handle the same workload, since it has to work in a non-blocking fashion against each queue. This also introduces lumpy behaviour and potential request starvation, since pdflush can be starved for queue access if others are accessing it. A sample ffsb workload that does random writes to files is about 8% faster here on a simple SATA drive during the benchmark phase. File layout also seems a LOT more smooth in vmstat: r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa 0 1 0 608848 2652 375372 0 0 0 71024 604 24 1 10 48 42 0 1 0 549644 2712 433736 0 0 0 60692 505 27 1 8 48 44 1 0 0 476928 2784 505192 0 0 4 29540 553 24 0 9 53 37 0 1 0 457972 2808 524008 0 0 0 54876 331 16 0 4 38 58 0 1 0 366128 2928 614284 0 0 4 92168 710 58 0 13 53 34 0 1 0 295092 3000 684140 0 0 0 62924 572 23 0 9 53 37 0 1 0 236592 3064 741704 0 0 4 58256 523 17 0 8 48 44 0 1 0 165608 3132 811464 0 0 0 57460 560 21 0 8 54 38 0 1 0 102952 3200 873164 0 0 4 74748 540 29 1 10 48 41 0 1 0 48604 3252 926472 0 0 0 53248 469 29 0 7 47 45 where vanilla tends to fluctuate a lot in the creation phase: r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa 1 1 0 678716 5792 303380 0 0 0 74064 565 50 1 11 52 36 1 0 0 662488 5864 319396 0 0 4 352 302 329 0 2 47 51 0 1 0 599312 5924 381468 0 0 0 78164 516 55 0 9 51 40 0 1 0 519952 6008 459516 0 0 4 78156 622 56 1 11 52 37 1 1 0 436640 6092 541632 0 0 0 82244 622 54 0 11 48 41 0 1 0 436640 6092 541660 0 0 0 8 152 39 0 0 51 49 0 1 0 332224 6200 644252 0 0 4 102800 728 46 1 13 49 36 1 0 0 274492 6260 701056 0 0 4 12328 459 49 0 7 50 43 0 1 0 211220 6324 763356 0 0 0 106940 515 37 1 10 51 39 1 0 0 160412 6376 813468 0 0 0 8224 415 43 0 6 49 45 1 1 0 85980 6452 886556 0 0 4 113516 575 39 1 11 54 34 0 2 0 85968 6452 886620 0 0 0 1640 158 211 0 0 46 54 A 10 disk test with btrfs performs 26% faster with per-bdi flushing. A SSD based writeback test on XFS performs over 20% better as well, with the throughput being very stable around 1GB/sec, where pdflush only manages 750MB/sec and fluctuates wildly while doing so. Random buffered writes to many files behave a lot better as well, as does random mmap'ed writes. A separate thread is added to sync the super blocks. In the long term, adding sync_supers_bdi() functionality could get rid of this thread again. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-09-11writeback: move dirty inodes from super_block to backing_dev_infoJens Axboe
This is a first step at introducing per-bdi flusher threads. We should have no change in behaviour, although sb_has_dirty_inodes() is now ridiculously expensive, as there's no easy way to answer that question. Not a huge problem, since it'll be deleted in subsequent patches. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-09-11writeback: get rid of generic_sync_sb_inodes() exportJens Axboe
This adds two new exported functions: - writeback_inodes_sb(), which only attempts to writeback dirty inodes on this super_block, for WB_SYNC_NONE writeout. - sync_inodes_sb(), which writes out all dirty inodes on this super_block and also waits for the IO to complete.

2009-09-10md: Fix "strchr" [drivers/md/dm-log-userspace.ko] undefined!Geert Uytterhoeven
Commit b8313b6da7e2e7c7f47d93d8561969a3ff9ba0ea ("dm log: remove incorrect field from userspace table output") added a call to strstr() with a single-character "needle" string parameter. Unfortunately some versions of gcc replace such calls to strstr() by calls to strchr() behind our back. This causes linking errors if strchr() is defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k): | WARNING: "strchr" [drivers/md/dm-log-userspace.ko] undefined! Avoid this by explicitly calling strchr() instead. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-09-10binfmt_elf: fix PT_INTERP bss handlingRoland McGrath
In fs/binfmt_elf.c, load_elf_interp() calls padzero() for .bss even if the PT_LOAD has no PROT_WRITE and no .bss. This generates EFAULT. Here is a small test case. (Yes, there are other, useful PT_INTERP which have only .text and no .data/.bss.) ----- ptinterp.S _start: .globl _start nop int3 ----- $ gcc -m32 -nostartfiles -nostdlib -o ptinterp ptinterp.S $ gcc -m32 -Wl,--dynamic-linker=ptinterp -o hello hello.c $ ./hello Segmentation fault # during execve() itself After applying the patch: $ ./hello Trace trap # user-mode execution after execve() finishes If the ELF headers are actually self-inconsistent, then dying is fine. But having no PROT_WRITE segment is perfectly normal and correct if there is no segment with p_memsz > p_filesz (i.e. bss). John Reiser suggested checking for PROT_WRITE in the bss logic. I think it makes most sense to simply apply the bss logic only when there is bss. This patch looks less trivial than it is due to some reindentation. It just moves the "if (last_bss > elf_bss) {" test up to include the partial-page bss logic as well as the more-pages bss logic.

2009-09-10TPM: Fixup boot probe timeout for tpm_tis driverJason Gunthorpe
When probing the device in tpm_tis_init the call request_locality uses timeout_a, which wasn't being initalized until after request_locality. This results in request_locality falsely timing out if the chip is still starting. Move the initialization to before request_locality. This probably only matters for embedded cases (ie mine), a BIOS likely gets the TPM into a state where this code path isn't necessary.
