Steven Whitehouse [Fri, 22 Feb 2008 16:09:31 +0000 (16:09 +0000)]
[GFS2] Allow bmap to allocate extents

We've supported mapping of extents when no block allocation is required
for some time. This patch extends that to mapping of extents when an
allocation has been requested. In that case we try to allocate as many
blocks as are requested, but we might return fewer in case there is
something preventing us from returning the complete amount (e.g. an
already allocated block is in the way).

Currently the only code path which can actually request multiple data
blocks in a single bmap call is the page_mkwrite path and even then it
only happens if there are multiple blocks per page. What this patch does
do however, is merge the allocation requests for metadata (growing the
metadata tree in either height or depth) with the allocation of the data
blocks in the case that both are needed. This results in lower overheads
even in the single block allocation case.

The one thing which we can't handle here at the moment is unstuffing. I
would like to be able to do that, but the problem which arises is that
in order to unstuff one has to get a locked page from the page cache
which results in locking problems in the (usual) case that the caller is
holding the page lock on the page it wishes to map. So that case will
have to be addressed in future patches.

[GFS2] Fix a page lock / glock deadlock

We've previously been using a "try lock" in readpage on the basis that
it would prevent deadlocks due to the inverted lock ordering (our normal
lock ordering is glock first and then page lock). Unfortunately tests
have shown that this isn't enough. If the glock has a demote request
queued such that run_queue() in the glock code tries to do a demote when
its called under readpage then it will try and write out all the dirty
pages which requires locking them. This then deadlocks with the page
locked by readpage.

The solution is to always require two calls into readpage. The first
unlocks the page, gets the glock and returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, the
second does the actual readpage and unlocks the glock & page as
required.

These messages are a regression compared with 2.6.24, which did not
flood the syslog with them.

The actual underlying problem was introduced in 2.6.23, when somebody
made the string parsing no longer accept nul-terminated strings as a
valid input to store_uevent().

Eg.  "add\0" was valid prior to 2.6.23, where the code regressed to
require "add" without the '\0'.

This patch fixes the 2.6.23 / 2.6.24 regressions, by having the code
once again tolerate the trailing '\0', if present.

According to GregKH, this mainly affects older Ubuntu systems, such as
the one I have here that requires this fix.

this makes it only try MMIO on Cell blades where it's known to be necessary

We'll try to find the root problem with MMIO separately.

16 years agodriver core: fix small mem leak in driver_add_kobj()

driver core: fix small mem leak in driver_add_kobj()

The Coverity checker spotted that we leak the storage allocated to 'name' in
int driver_add_kobj().  The leak looks legit to me - this is the code :

int driver_add_kobj(struct device_driver *drv, struct kobject *kobj,
                    const char *fmt, ...)
{
        va_list args;
        char *name;
        int ret;

        va_start(args, fmt);
        name = kvasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, fmt, args);
        ^^^^^^^^ This dynamically allocates space...

        va_end(args);

        if (!name)
                return -ENOMEM;

        return kobject_add(kobj, &drv->p->kobj, "%s", name);
^^^^^^^^ This neglects to free the space allocated
}

Inside kobject_add() a copy of 'name' will be made and used.  As far as I can
see, Coverity is correct in flagging this as a leak, but I'd like some
configmation before the patch is applied.

This should fix it.

Fix regression in dm-crypt introduced in commit
3a7f6c990ad04e6f576a159876c602d14d6f7fef ("dm crypt: use async crypto").

If write requests need to be split into pieces, the code must not process them
in parallel because the crypto context cannot be shared.  So there can be
parallel crypto operations on one part of the write, but only one write bio
can be processed at a time.

This is not optimal and the workqueue code needs to be optimized for parallel
processing, but for now it solves the problem without affecting the
performance of synchronous crypto operation (most of current dm-crypt users).

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10245

The HP Compaq nc6120 has the same PCI sub-device ID as the nx6110, and the
SMBus is used by ACPI for thermal management on the nc6120, so Linux should
not attach a native driver to it.  This means that this quirk is unsafe and
has to be removed.

I also added a comment to help developers realize that adding new IDs to this
SMBus unhiding quirk table should be done only with great care, and in
particular only after checking that ACPI is not making use of the SMBus.

afs: prevent double cell registration

kafs doesn't check if the cell already exists - so if you do an echo "add
newcell.org 1.2.3.4" >/proc/fs/afs/cells it will try to create this cell
again.  kobject will also complain about a double registration.  To prevent
such problems, return -EEXIST in that case.

vfs: fix data leak in nobh_write_end()

Current nobh_write_end() implementation ignore partial writes(copied < len)
case if page was fully mapped and simply mark page as Uptodate, which is
totally wrong because area [pos+copied, pos+len) wasn't updated explicitly in
previous write_begin call.  It simply contains garbage from pagecache and
result in data leakage.

As you can see file's page contains garbage from pagecache instead of zeros.
#TEST_CASE_END

Attached patch:
- Add sanity check BUG_ON in order to prevent incorrect usage by caller,
  This is function invariant because page can has buffers and in no zero
  *fadata pointer at the same time.
- Always attach buffers to page is it is partial write case.
- Always switch back to generic_write_end if page has buffers.
  This is reasonable because if page already has buffer then generic_write_begin
  was called previously.
