      ftrace: Output REC->var instead of __entry->var for trace format · 0462b566
      Zhaolei authored
      print fmt: "irq=%d return=%s", __entry->irq, __entry->ret ? \"handled\" : \"unhandled\"
      
      "__entry" should be convert to "REC" by __stringify() macro.

      Make __stringify support variable argument macros too · 8f7c2c37
      Zhaolei authored
      For example:
      
        __stringify(__entry->irq, __entry->ret)
      
      will now convert it to:
      
        "REC->irq, REC->ret"
      
      It also still supports single arguments as the old macro did.

      tracing: fix splice return too large · 93cfb3c9
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      I got these from strace:
      
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 12288
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 12288
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 12288
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 16384
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 8192
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 8192
       splice(0x3, 0, 0x5, 0, 0x1000, 0x1) = 8192
      
      I wanted to splice_read 4096 bytes, but it returns 8192 or larger.
      
      It is because the return value of tracing_buffers_splice_read()
      does not include "zero out any left over data" bytes.
      
      But tracing_buffers_read() includes these bytes, we make them
      consistent.

      tracing: update file->f_pos when splice(2) it · c7625a55
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      Impact: Cleanup
      
      These two lines:
      
      	if (unlikely(*ppos))
      		return -ESPIPE;
      
      in tracing_buffers_splice_read() are not needed, VFS layer
      has disabled seek(2).
      
      We remove these two lines, and then we can update file->f_pos.
      
      And tracing_buffers_read() updates file->f_pos, this fix
      make tracing_buffers_splice_read() updates file->f_pos too.

      we just splice(2) it, thus, the page is not used.

      tracing: disable seeking for trace_pipe_raw · d1e7e02f
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      Impact: disable pread()
      
      We set tracing_buffers_fops.llseek to no_llseek,
      but we can still perform pread() to read this file.
      
      That is not expected.
      
      This fix uses nonseekable_open() to disable it.
      
      tracing_buffers_fops.llseek is still set to no_llseek,
      it mark this file is a "non-seekable device" and is used by
      sys_splice(). See also do_splice() or manual of splice(2):
      
      ERRORS
             EINVAL Target file system doesn't support  splicing;
                    neither  of the descriptors refers to a pipe;

      dm kcopyd: fix callback race · 340cd444
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      If the thread calling dm_kcopyd_copy is delayed due to scheduling inside
      split_job/segment_complete and the subjobs complete before the loop in
      split_job completes, the kcopyd callback could be invoked from the
      thread that called dm_kcopyd_copy instead of the kcopyd workqueue.
      
      dm_kcopyd_copy -> split_job -> segment_complete -> job->fn()
      
      Snapshots depend on the fact that callbacks are called from the singlethreaded
      kcopyd workqueue and expect that there is no racing between individual
      callbacks. The racing between callbacks can lead to corruption of exception
      store and it can also mean that exception store callbacks are called twice
      for the same exception - a likely reason for crashes reported inside
      pending_complete() / remove_exception().
      
      This patch fixes two problems:
      
      1. job->fn being called from the thread that submitted the job (see above).
      
      - Fix: hand over the completion callback to the kcopyd thread.
      
      2. job->fn(read_err, write_err, job->context); in segment_complete
      reports the error of the last subjob, not the union of all errors.
      
      - Fix: pass job->write_err to the callback to report all error bits
        (it is done already in run_complete_job)

      dm: implement basic barrier support · af7e466a
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      Barriers are submitted to a worker thread that issues them in-order.
      
      The thread is modified so that when it sees a barrier request it waits
      for all pending IO before the request then submits the barrier and
      waits for it.  (We must wait, otherwise it could be intermixed with
      following requests.)
      
      Errors from the barrier request are recorded in a per-device barrier_error
      variable. There may be only one barrier request in progress at once.
      
      For now, the barrier request is converted to a non-barrier request when
      sending it to the underlying device.
      
      This patch guarantees correct barrier behavior if the underlying device
      doesn't perform write-back caching. The same requirement existed before
      barriers were supported in dm.
      
      Bottom layer barrier support (sending barriers by target drivers) and
      handling devices with write-back caches will be done in further patches.

      dm: remove dm_request loop · 92c63902
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      Remove queue_io return value and a loop in dm_request.
      
      IO may be submitted to a worker thread with queue_io().  queue_io() sets
      DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD so that all further IO is queued for the thread. When
      the thread finishes its work, it clears DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD and from this
      point on, requests are submitted from dm_request again. This will be used
      for processing barriers.
      
      Remove the loop in dm_request. queue_io() can submit I/Os to the worker thread
      even if DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD was not set.
