2006-08-26[SCSI] sg: fix incorrect page problemDouglas Gilbert
There's a problem where sg is executing a ->nopage operation on a compound page, it actually calls get_page() on the first page in the compound rather than the page which is being mapped. The fix is to select the correct page by indexing into the compound. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

2006-06-30[SCSI] sg.c: Fix bad error handling inIshai Rabinovitz
I got a NULL derefrence in cdev_del+1 when called from sg_remove. By looking at the code of sg_add, sg_alloc and sg_remove (all in drivers/scsi/sg.c) I found out that sg_add is calling sg_alloc but if it fails afterwards it does not deallocate the space that was allocated in sg_alloc and the redundant entry has NULL in cdev. When sg_remove is being called, it tries to perform cdev_del to this NULL cdev and fails.

2006-04-13[SCSI] unify SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND implementationsChristoph Hellwig
We currently have two implementations of this obsolete ioctl, one in the block layer and one in the scsi code. Both of them have drawbacks. This patch kills the scsi layer version after updating the block version with the missing bits: - argument checking - use scatterlist I/O - set number of retries based on the submitted command This is the last user of non-S/G I/O except for the gdth driver, so getting this in ASAP and through the scsi tree would be nie to kill the non-S/G I/O path. Jens, what do you think about adding a check for non-S/G I/O in the midlayer? Thanks to Or Gerlitz for testing this patch.

2006-03-22[PATCH] sg: use compound pagesNick Piggin
sg increments the refcount of constituent pages in its higher order memory allocations when they are about to be mapped by userspace. This is done so the subsequent get_page/put_page when doing the mapping and unmapping does not free the page. Move over to the preferred way, that is, using compound pages instead. This fixes a whole class of possible obscure bugs where a get_user_pages on a constituent page may outlast the user mappings or even the driver.

2006-01-26[SCSI] Prevent scsi_execute_async from guessing cdb lengthbrking@us.ibm.com
When the scsi_execute_async interface was added it ended up reducing the flexibility of userspace to send arbitrary scsi commands through sg using SG_IO. The SG_IO interface allows userspace to specify the CDB length. This is now ignored in scsi_execute_async and it is guessed using the COMMAND_SIZE macro, which is not always correct, particularly for vendor specific commands. This patch adds a cmd_len parameter to the scsi_execute_async interface to allow the caller to specify the length of the CDB.

Convert sg to always send scatterlists, and kill scsi_request usage. TODO: - move DIO code to common place or make block layers usable for ULDs. - move buffer allocation code to common place for all ULDs to use. And make buffer allocation code obey all queue limits so we can find out about problems before calling scsi_execute_async. Currently, sg.c could allocate a buffer that is too large, and send the request to scsi_execute_async. scsi_execute_async will then check it against all the queue limits and return a failure in this case. It would nicer to know about the queue limit violation right away. - move indirect (copy_to/from_user) paths commone place or make block layers usable for ULDs.

2.6.15-rc1 made sg's st_unmap_user_pages and st's sgl_unmap_user_pages BUG on a PageReserved page. But that's wrong: they could be unmapping the ZERO_PAGE, which is marked PG_reserved; and perhaps others (while get_user_pages is still permitted on VM_PFNMAP areas - that may change). More change is needed here: sg claims to dirty even pages written from, and st claims not to dirty even pages read into; and SetPageDirty is not adequate for this nowadays.

2005-10-29[PATCH] core remove PageReservedNick Piggin
Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality. PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page. All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount based freeing of Reserved pages. MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept). Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can be trivially removed. Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work). A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

2005-09-09[SCSI] sg: do not set VM_IO flag on mmap-ed pagesDouglas Gilbert
Further to the problem discussed in this post: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112540053711489&w=2 It seems that the sg driver does not need to set the VM_IO flag on pages that it memory maps to the user space since they are not from the IO space. Ahmed Teirelbar <ahmed.teirelbar@adic.com> wants the facility and has tested this patch as I have without adverse effects. The oops protection is still important. Some users really did try and use dio transfers from the sg driver to memory mapped IO space (on a video capture card if my memory serves) during the lk 2.4 series. I'm not sure how successful it was but that will now be politely refused in lk 2.6.13+ .

I know that scsi procfs is legacy code but this is a fix for a memory leak. While reading through sg.c I realized that the implementation of /proc/scsi/sg/devices with seq_file is leaking memory due to freeing the pointer returned by the next() iterator method. Since next() might return NULL or an error this is wrong. This patch fixes it through using the seq_files private field for holding the reference to the iterator object.

2005-06-03[SCSI] sg: Command completion after remove oopsbrking@us.ibm.com
A problem exists todayin the sg driver that if an SG_IO request is outstanding to a device when it is removed from the system. The system may oops if that command completes later in time. 1. sg_remove gets called 2. sg_remove calls sg_finish_req_req on all pending requests This removes the Sg_request's from the headrp list in the Sg_fd 3. The sleeping SG_IO ioctl is woken. It does nothing and returns. 4. The caller closes the fd, which invokes sg_release 5. sg_release calls sg_remove_sfp. It finds no outstanding commands since the headrp list is empty, so it calls __sg_remove_sfp, which frees the sfp. 6. Now when sg_cmd_done gets called, sg uses upper_private_data in the Scsi_Request, which should point to the srp, which has been freed, so it points to freed memory. 7. sg then dereferences the srp pointer to get the sfp, and we oops. The fix is to NULL out the upper_private_data field in this path, which sg_cmd_done already checks for, which will prevent the oops from occurring. cpu 0x1: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c00000000fff7aa0] pc: d0000000002bbea8: .sg_cmd_done+0x70/0x394 [sg] lr: d000000000073304: .scsi_finish_command+0x10c/0x130 [scsi_mod] sp: c00000000fff7d20 msr: 8000000000009032 dar: 2f70726f63202f78 dsisr: 40000000 current = 0xc0000000024589b0 paca = 0xc0000000003da800 pid = 7, comm = events/1 [c00000000fff7dc0] d000000000073304 .scsi_finish_command+0x10c/0x130 [scsi_mod] [c00000000fff7e50] d00000000007317c .scsi_softirq+0x140/0x168 [scsi_mod] [c00000000fff7ef0] c0000000000634dc .__do_softirq+0xa0/0x17c [c00000000fff7f90] c000000000018430 .call_do_softirq+0x14/0x24 [c00000000ed472e0] c0000000000142e0 .do_softirq+0x74/0x9c [c00000000ed47370] c000000000013c9c .do_IRQ+0xe8/0x100 [c00000000ed473f0] c00000000000ae34 HardwareInterrupt_entry+0x8/0x54 c00000000003df28 .smp_call_function+0 x100/0x1d0 [c00000000ed47780] c0000000000ba99c .invalidate_bh_lrus+0x30/0x70 [c00000000ed47810] c0000000000b91a0 .invalidate_bdev+0x18/0x3c [c00000000ed478a0] c0000000000da7b8 .__invalidate_device+0x70/0x94 [c00000000ed47930] c0000000001d40bc .invalidate_partition+0x4c/0x7c [c00000000ed479c0] c00000000010a944 .del_gendisk+0x48/0x15c [c00000000ed47a50] d00000000003d55c .sd_remove+0x34/0xe4 [sd_mod] [c00000000ed47ae0] c0000000001c5d30 .device_release_driver+0x90/0xb4 [c00000000ed47b70] c0000000001c6130 .bus_remove_device+0xb0/0x12c [c00000000ed47c00] c0000000001c4378 .device_del+0x120/0x198 [c00000000ed47ca0] d00000000007dcdc .scsi_remove_device+0xb4/0x194 [scsi_mod] [c00000000ed47d30] d0000000000a5864 .ipr_worker_thread+0x1d4/0x27c [ipr] [c00000000ed47dd0] c0000000000734c4 .worker_thread+0x238/0x2f4 [c00000000ed47ee0] c0000000000796c0 .kthread+0xcc/0x11c [c00000000ed47f90] c000000000018ad0 .kernel_thread+0x4c/0x6c Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
