      scsi: fix host max depth checking for the 'queue_depth' sysfs interface · 1278dd68
      Jens Axboe authored
      Commit 1e6f2416 changed the scsi sysfs 'queue_depth' code to
      rejects depths higher than the scsi host template setting. But lots
      of hosts set this to 1, and update the settings in the scsi host
      when the controller/devices probing happens.
      
      This breaks (at least) mpt2sas and mpt3sas runtime setting of queue
      depth, returning EINVAL for all settings but '1'. And once it's set to
      1, there's no way to go back up.

      Analysis reveals the cause of the crash to be due to STp->device
      being NULL. The pointer was NULLed via scsi_tape_put(STp) when it
      calls scsi_tape_release(). In st_open() we jump to err_out after
      scsi_block_when_processing_errors() completes and returns the
      device as offline (sdev_state was SDEV_DEL):
      
      1180 /* Open the device. Needs to take the BKL only because of incrementing the SCSI host
      1181    module count. */
      1182 static int st_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)
      1183 {
      1184         int i, retval = (-EIO);
      1185         int resumed = 0;
      1186         struct scsi_tape *STp;
      1187         struct st_partstat *STps;
      1188         int dev = TAPE_NR(inode);
      1189         char *name;
      ...
      1217         if (scsi_autopm_get_device(STp->device) < 0) {
      1218                 retval = -EIO;
      1219                 goto err_out;
      1220         }
      1221         resumed = 1;
      1222         if (!scsi_block_when_processing_errors(STp->device)) {
      1223                 retval = (-ENXIO);
      1224                 goto err_out;
      1225         }
      ...
      1264  err_out:
      1265         normalize_buffer(STp->buffer);
      1266         spin_lock(&st_use_lock);
      1267         STp->in_use = 0;
      1268         spin_unlock(&st_use_lock);
      1269         scsi_tape_put(STp); <-- STp->device = 0 after this
      1270         if (resumed)
      1271                 scsi_autopm_put_device(STp->device);
      1272         return retval;
      
      The ref count for the struct scsi_tape had already been reduced
      to 1 when the .remove method of the st module had been called.
      The kref_put() in scsi_tape_put() caused scsi_tape_release()
      to be called:
      
      0266 static void scsi_tape_put(struct scsi_tape *STp)
      0267 {
      0268         struct scsi_device *sdev = STp->device;
      0269
      0270         mutex_lock(&st_ref_mutex);
      0271         kref_put(&STp->kref, scsi_tape_release); <-- calls this
      0272         scsi_device_put(sdev);
      0273         mutex_unlock(&st_ref_mutex);
      0274 }
      
      In scsi_tape_release() the struct scsi_device in the struct
      scsi_tape gets set to NULL:
      
      4273 static void scsi_tape_release(struct kref *kref)
      4274 {
      4275         struct scsi_tape *tpnt = to_scsi_tape(kref);
      4276         struct gendisk *disk = tpnt->disk;
      4277
      4278         tpnt->device = NULL; <<<---- where the dev is nulled
      4279
      4280         if (tpnt->buffer) {
      4281                 normalize_buffer(tpnt->buffer);
      4282                 kfree(tpnt->buffer->reserved_pages);
      4283                 kfree(tpnt->buffer);
      4284         }
      4285
      4286         disk->private_data = NULL;
      4287         put_disk(disk);
      4288         kfree(tpnt);
      4289         return;
      4290 }
      
      Although the problem was reported on SLES11.3 the problem appears
      in linux-next as well.
      
      The crash is fixed by reordering the code so we no longer access
      the struct scsi_tape after the kref_put() is done on it in st_open().

      Revert "drm/i915: Use crtc_state->active in primary check_plane func" · 01e2d062
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit dec4f799.
      
      Jörg Otte reports a NULL pointder dereference due to this commit, as
      'crtc_state' very much can be NULL:
      
              crtc_state = state->base.state ?
                      intel_atomic_get_crtc_state(state->base.state, intel_crtc) : NULL;
      
      So the change to test 'crtc_state->base.active' cannot possibly be
      correct as-is.
      
      There may be some other minimal fix (like just checking crtc_state for
      NULL), but I'm just reverting it now for the rc2 release, and people
      like Daniel Vetter who actually know this code will figure out what the
      right solution is in the longer term.

           failures.  I rather plugged all of the corner cases instead of only
           addressing the issue reported, so the change got a little larger.
      
           Has been extensivly tested on x86 and arm.
      
         - Get rid of the last holdouts using do_posix_clock_monotonic_gettime()
      
         - A regression fix for the imx clocksource driver
      
         - An update to the new state callbacks mechanism for clockevents.
           This is required to simplify the conversion, which will take place
           in 4.3"

      Pull irq fix from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A single fix for a cpu hotplug race vs. interrupt descriptors:
      
        Prevent irq setup/teardown across the cpu starting/dying parts of cpu
        hotplug so that the starting/dying cpu has a stable view of the
        descriptor space.  This has been an issue for all architectures in the
        cpu dying phase, where interrupts are migrated away from the dying
        cpu.  In the starting phase its mostly a x86 issue vs the vector space
        update"
