The original behaviour is to refuse to add a new page if the maximum number of segments has been reached, regardless of the fact the page we are going to add can be merged into the last segment or not. Unfortunately, when the system runs under heavy memory fragmentation conditions, a driver may try to add multiple pages to the last segment. The original code won't accept them and EBUSY will be reported to userspace. This patch modifies the function so it refuses to add a page only in case the latter starts a new segment and the maximum number of segments has already been reached. The bug can be easily reproduced with the st driver: 1) set CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS_MAX_SGE or CONFIG_SCSI_MPT3SAS_MAX_SGE to 16 2) modprobe st buffer_kbs=1024 3) #dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/st0 bs=1M count=10 dd: error writing `/dev/st0': Device or resource busy [ming.lei@canonical.com: update bi_iter.bi_size before recounting segments] Signed-off-by: Maurizio Lombardi <mlombard@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Tested-by: Dongsu Park <dongsu.park@profitbricks.com> Tested-by: Jet Chen <jet.chen@intel.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Kent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

BLKSECTGET ioctl loads the request queue's max_sectors as unsigned short value to the argument pointer. So if the max_sector is greater than USHRT_MAX, the upper 16 bits of that is just discarded. In such case, USHRT_MAX is more preferable than the lower 16 bits of max_sectors. Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: "James E.J.

Commit 08778795 ("block: Fix nr_vecs for inline integrity vectors") from Martin introduces the function bip_integrity_vecs(get the useful vectors) to fix the issue about nr_vecs for inline integrity vectors that reported by David Milburn. But it seems that bip_integrity_vecs() will return the wrong number if the bio is not based on any bio_set for some reason(bio->bi_pool == NULL), because in that case, the bip_inline_vecs[0] is malloced directly. So here we add the bip_max_vcnt to record the count of vector slots, and cleanup the function bip_integrity_vecs(). Signed-off-by: Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Martin K.

Currently, blk-mq uses a percpu_counter to keep track of how many usages are in flight. The percpu_counter is drained while freezing to ensure that no usage is left in-flight after freezing is complete. blk_mq_queue_enter/exit() and blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() implement this per-cpu gating mechanism. This type of code has relatively high chance of subtle bugs which are extremely difficult to trigger and it's way too hairy to be open coded in blk-mq. percpu_ref can serve the same purpose after the recent changes. This patch replaces the open-coded per-cpu usage counting and draining mechanism with percpu_ref. blk_mq_queue_enter() performs tryget_live on the ref and exit() performs put. blk_mq_freeze_queue() kills the ref and waits until the reference count reaches zero. blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() revives the ref and wakes up the waiters.

blk_mq freezing is entangled with generic bypassing which bypasses blkcg and io scheduler and lets IO requests fall through the block layer to the drivers in FIFO order. This allows forward progress on IOs with the advanced features disabled so that those features can be configured or altered without worrying about stalling IO which may lead to deadlock through memory allocation. However, generic bypassing doesn't quite fit blk-mq. blk-mq currently doesn't make use of blkcg or ioscheds and it maps bypssing to freezing, which blocks request processing and drains all the in-flight ones. This causes problems as bypassing assumes that request processing is online. blk-mq works around this by conditionally allowing request processing for the problem case - during queue initialization. Another weirdity is that except for during queue cleanup, bypassing started on the generic side prevents blk-mq from processing new requests but doesn't drain the in-flight ones. This shouldn't break anything but again highlights that something isn't quite right here. The root cause is conflating blk-mq freezing and generic bypassing which are two different mechanisms. The only intersecting purpose that they serve is during queue cleanup. Let's properly separate blk-mq freezing from generic bypassing and simply use it where necessary. * request_queue->mq_freeze_depth is added and blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() now operate on this counter instead of ->bypass_depth. The replacement for QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS isn't added but the counter is tested directly. This will be further updated by later changes. * blk_mq_drain_queue() is dropped and "__" prefix is dropped from blk_mq_freeze_queue(). Queue cleanup path now calls blk_mq_freeze_queue() directly. * blk_queue_enter()'s fast path condition is simplified to simply check @q->mq_freeze_depth. Previously, the condition was !blk_queue_dying(q) && (!blk_queue_bypass(q) || !blk_queue_init_done(q)) mq_freeze_depth is incremented right after dying is set and blk_queue_init_done() exception isn't necessary as blk-mq doesn't start frozen, which only leaves the blk_queue_bypass() test which can be replaced by @q->mq_freeze_depth test. This change simplifies the code and reduces confusion in the area. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Nicholas A.

Currently, both blk_queue_bypass_start() and blk_mq_freeze_queue() skip queue draining if bypass_depth was already above zero. The assumption is that the one which bumped the bypass_depth should have performed draining already; however, there's nothing which prevents a new instance of bypassing/freezing from starting before the previous one finishes draining. The current code may allow the later bypassing/freezing instances to complete while there still are in-flight requests which haven't finished draining. Fix it by draining regardless of bypass_depth. We still skip draining from blk_queue_bypass_start() while the queue is initializing to avoid introducing excessive delays during boot. INIT_DONE setting is moved above the initial blk_queue_bypass_end() so that bypassing attempts can't slip inbetween.

On the syscall tracing path, we call out to secure_computing() to allow seccomp to check the syscall number being attempted. As part of this, a SIGTRAP may be sent to the tracer and the syscall could be re-written by a subsequent SET_SYSCALL ptrace request. Unfortunately, this new syscall is ignored by the current code unless TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE is also set on the current thread. This patch slightly reworks the enter path of the syscall tracing code so that we always reload the syscall number from current_thread_info()->syscall after the potential ptrace traps.

When a PL310 cache is used on a system that provides hardware coherency, the outer cache sync operation is useless, and can be skipped. Moreover, on some systems, it is harmful as it causes deadlocks between the Marvell coherency mechanism, the Marvell PCIe controller and the Cortex-A9. To avoid this, this commit introduces a new Device Tree property 'arm,io-coherent' for the L2 cache controller node, valid only for the PL310 cache. It identifies the usage of the PL310 cache in an I/O coherent configuration. Internally, it makes the driver disable the outer cache sync operation. Note that technically speaking, a fully coherent system wouldn't require any of the other .outer_cache operations. However, in practice, when booting secondary CPUs, these are not yet coherent, and therefore a set of cache maintenance operations are necessary at this point. This explains why we keep the other .outer_cache operations and only ->sync is disabled. While in theory any write to a PL310 register could cause the deadlock, in practice, disabling ->sync is sufficient to workaround the deadlock, since the other cache maintenance operations are only used in very specific situations. Contrary to previous versions of this patch, this new version does not simply NULL-ify the ->sync member, because the l2c_init_data structures are now 'const' and therefore cannot be modified, which is a good thing. Therefore, this patch introduces a separate l2c_init_data instance, called of_l2c310_coherent_data.

Now that explicit invocation of percpu_ref_exit() is necessary to free the percpu counter, we can implement percpu_ref_reinit() which reinitializes a released percpu_ref. This can be used implement scalable gating switch which can be drained and then re-opened without worrying about memory allocation failures. percpu_ref_is_zero() is added to be used in a sanity check in percpu_ref_exit(). As this function will be useful for other purposes too, make it a public interface. v2: Use smp_read_barrier_depends() instead of smp_load_acquire(). We only need data dep barrier and smp_load_acquire() is stronger and heavier on some archs. Spotted by Lai Jiangshan.

Currently, a percpu_ref undoes percpu_ref_init() automatically by freeing the allocated percpu area when the percpu_ref is killed. While seemingly convenient, this has the following niggles. * It's impossible to re-init a released reference counter without going through re-allocation. * In the similar vein, it's impossible to initialize a percpu_ref count with static percpu variables. * We need and have an explicit destructor anyway for failure paths - percpu_ref_cancel_init(). This patch removes the automatic percpu counter freeing in percpu_ref_kill_rcu() and repurposes percpu_ref_cancel_init() into a generic destructor now named percpu_ref_exit(). percpu_ref_destroy() is considered but it gets confusing with percpu_ref_kill() while "exit" clearly indicates that it's the counterpart of percpu_ref_init(). All percpu_ref_cancel_init() users are updated to invoke percpu_ref_exit() instead and explicit percpu_ref_exit() calls are added to the destruction path of all percpu_ref users.

percpu_ref->pcpu_count is a percpu pointer with a status flag in its lowest bit. As such, it always goes through arithmetic operations which is very cumbersome to do on a pointer. It has to be first casted to unsigned long and then back. Let's just make the field unsigned long so that we can skip the first casts. While at it, rename it to pcpu_counter_ptr to clarify that it's a pointer value.
