| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit cfb5285660aad4931b2ebbfa902ea48a37dfffa1 removed a useful feature for us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller. This feature would be useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption. The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's original patch (Commit 62d0df64065e7c135d0002f069444fbdfc64768f), with these differences: - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for 2.6.25 after more discussions. - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler classes - Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage counter to be per-cpu - Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in kernel/sched.c) The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting information. Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine. Ran some simple tests like cpuspin (spin on the cpu), ran several tasks in the same group and timed them. Compared their time stamps with cpuacct.usage.

| * | [SCSI] NCR5380: Fix bugs and canonicalize irq handler usageJeff Garzik2007-11-25

This fixes several bugs. * Always call NCR5380_intr() with 'irq' and 'dev_id' arguments. Note, scsi_falcon_intr() is the only case now where dev_id is not the scsi_host. * Always pass Scsi_Host to request_irq(). For most cases, the drivers already did so, and I merely neated the source code line. In other cases, either NULL or a non-sensical value was passed, verified to be unused, then changed to be Scsi_Host in anticipation of the future. In addition to the bugs fixes, this change makes the interface usage consistent, which in turn enables the possibility of directly referencing Scsi_Host from all NCR5380_intr() invocations.

| * | [SCSI] zfcp: fix cleanup of dismissed error recovery actionsMartin Peschke2007-11-16

Instead it should just go through the down() operation, which balances the first up(), and run through zfcp_erp_strategy one more time for the second up(), which eventually cleans up erp_action. Which is similar to the normal processing of an event for erp_action doing something asynchronously (e.g. waiting for the completion of an fsf_req). This only works if we make sure that a dismissed erp_action is passed to zfcp_erp_strategy() prior to the other action, which caused actions to be dismissed. Therefore the patch implements this rule: running actions go to the head of the ready list; new actions go to the tail of the ready list; the erp thread picks actions to be processed from the ready list's head.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | zfcp_erp_action_dismiss() used to ignore any actions in the ready list. This is a bug. Any action superseded by a stronger action needs to be dismissed. This patch changes zfcp_erp_action_dismiss() so that it dismisses actions regardless of their list affiliation. The ERP thread is able to handle this. It is important to kick the erp thread only for actions in the running list, though, as an imbalance of wakeup signals would confuse the erp thread otherwise.

| * | [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix potential lockup with write commandsTony Battersby2007-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a race condition in iscsi_tcp.c that may cause it to forget that it received a R2T from the target. This race may cause a data-out command (such as a write) to lock up. The race occurs here: static int iscsi_send_unsol_pdu(struct iscsi_conn *conn, struct iscsi_cmd_task *ctask) { struct iscsi_tcp_cmd_task *tcp_ctask = ctask->dd_data; int rc; if (tcp_ctask->xmstate & XMSTATE_UNS_HDR) { BUG_ON(!ctask->unsol_count); tcp_ctask->xmstate &= ~XMSTATE_UNS_HDR; <---- RACE ... static int iscsi_r2t_rsp(struct iscsi_conn *conn, struct iscsi_cmd_task *ctask) { ... tcp_ctask->xmstate |= XMSTATE_SOL_HDR_INIT; <---- RACE ... While iscsi_xmitworker() (called from scsi_queue_work()) is preparing to send unsolicited data, iscsi_tcp_data_recv() (called from tcp_read_sock()) interrupts it upon receipt of a R2T from the target. Both contexts do read-modify-write of tcp_ctask->xmstate. Usually, gcc on x86 will make &= and |= atomic on UP (not guaranteed of course), but in this case iscsi_send_unsol_pdu() reads the value of xmstate before clearing the bit, which causes gcc to read xmstate into a CPU register, test it, clear the bit, and then store it back to memory. If the recv interrupt happens during this sequence, then the XMSTATE_SOL_HDR_INIT bit set by the recv interrupt will be lost, and the R2T will be forgotten. The patch below (against 2.6.24-rc1) converts accesses of xmstate to use set_bit, clear_bit, and test_bit instead of |= and &=. I have tested this patch and verified that it fixes the problem. Another possible approach would be to hold a lock during most of the rx/tx setup and post-processing, and drop the lock only for the actual rx/tx.

FSACTL_GET_NEXT_ADAPTER_FIB ioctl does not lock dev->fib_list but needs to 2. Ditto for FSACTL_CLOSE_GET_ADAPTER_FIB 3. It is possible to construct an attack via the SRB ioctls where the user obtains assorted elevated privileges. Various approaches are possible, the trivial ones being things like writing to the raw media via scsi commands and the swap image of other executing programs with higher privileges. So the ioctls should be CAP_SYS_RAWIO - at least all the FIB manipulating ones. This is a bandaid fix for #3 but probably the ioctls should grow their own capable checks. The other two bugs need someone competent in that driver to fix them.

| * | | [NETNS]: Fix /proc/net breakageEric W. Biederman2007-12-01

Currently things work but there are odd details visible to user space, even when we have a single network namespace. Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method. To accomplish that this patch: - introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to be returned from proc_lookup. - Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic - Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries. As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code that uses the shadow_proc method.

But this patch fixed the connection problem when switching from a WPA enabled AP (using wpa_supplicant) to an open AP (using iwconfig). The root cause is when we connect to a WPA enabled AP, wpa_supplicant sets the ifsta->extra_ie thru SIOCSIWGENIE. But if we stop wpa_supplicant and connect to an open AP with iwconfig, there is no way to clear the extra_ie so that mac80211 keeps connecting with that.

Of course, in practice this should never happen since the input layer xfrm_user/af_key will filter out all illegal values. But the compiler doesn't know that of course. So this patch fixes this by taking the conservative approach and treat all unknown actions the same as a blocking action. Thanks to Andrew for finding this and providing an initial fix.

While we slept the unregister has set * handler to NULL :( */ Grep showed, that the register/unregister functions are called from init/fini module callbacks for tcp_/dccp_diag, so it's OK to use the inet_diag_mutex to synchronize manipulations with the inet_diag_table and the access to it. Besides, as Herbert pointed out, asynchronous dumps should hold this mutex as well, and thus, we provide the mutex as cb_mutex one.

This is a test case: | #include <sys/types.h> | #include <unistd.h> | #include <sys/socket.h> | #include <sys/un.h> | #include <fcntl.h> | #include <string.h> | #include <stdlib.h> | | int main(){ | int sock; | struct sockaddr_un addr; | char buf[4096]; | int pfds[2]; | | pipe(pfds); | sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0); | addr.sun_family=AF_UNIX; | strcpy(addr.sun_path,"/tmp/foobar_testsock"); | bind(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr)); | listen(sock,1); | if(fork()){ | close(sock); | sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0); | connect(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr)); | fcntl(sock,F_SETFL,fcntl(sock,F_GETFL)|O_NONBLOCK); | close(pfds[1]); | read(pfds[0],buf,sizeof(buf)); | recv(sock,buf,sizeof(buf),0); // <-- this one | }else accept(sock,NULL,NULL); | exit(0); | } If you try it, make sure /tmp/foobar_testsock doesn't exist.
