* tty: Introduce a tty_port common structureAlan Cox2008-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | Every tty driver has its own concept of a port structure and because they all differ we cannot extract commonality. Begin fixing this by creating a structure drivers can elect to use so that over time we can push fields into this and create commonality and then introduce common methods.

* tty: Ldisc revampAlan Cox2008-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty. Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* Subject: [PATCH 1/2] serial: Add flush_buffer() operation to uart_opsHaavard Skinnemoen2008-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Serial drivers using DMA (like the atmel_serial driver) tend to get very confused when the xmit buffer is flushed and nobody told them. They also tend to spew a lot of garbage since the DMA engine keeps running after the buffer is flushed and possibly refilled with unrelated data. This patch adds a new flush_buffer operation to the uart_ops struct, along with a call to it from uart_flush_buffer() right after the xmit buffer has been cleared. The driver can implement this in order to syncronize its internal DMA state with the xmit buffer when the buffer is flushed.

| * [PATCH] ocfs2: fix oops in mmap_truncate testingColy Li2008-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a mmap_truncate bug which was found by ocfs2 test suite. In an ocfs2 cluster more than 1 node, run program mmap_truncate, which races mmap writes and truncates from multiple processes. While the test is running, a stat from another node forces writeout, causing an oops in ocfs2_get_block() because it sees a buffer to write which isn't allocated. This patch fixed the bug by clear dirty and uptodate bits in buffer, leave the buffer unmapped and return. Fix is suggested by Mark Fasheh, and I code up the patch.

| * configfs: Allow ->make_item() and ->make_group() to return detailed errors.Joel Becker2008-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently return a new item/group. A return of NULL signifies an error. Because of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack. Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes when these operations fail. This patch adds that ability by changing the ->make_item/group() ops to return an int. Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
| * configfs: Fix failing mkdir() making racing rmdir() failLouis Rilling2008-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When fixing the rename() vs rmdir() deadlock, we stopped locking default groups' inodes in configfs_detach_prep(), letting racing mkdir() in default groups proceed concurrently. This enables races like below happen, which leads to a failing mkdir() making rmdir() fail, despite the group to remove having no user-created directory under it in the end. process A: process B: /* PWD=A/B */ mkdir("C") make_item("C") attach_group("C") rmdir("A") detach_prep("A") detach_prep("B") error because of "C" return -ENOTEMPTY attach_group("C/D") error (eg -ENOMEM) return -ENOMEM This patch prevents such scenarii by making rmdir() wait as long as detach_prep() fails because a racing mkdir() is in the middle of attach_group(). To achieve this, mkdir() sets a flag CONFIGFS_USET_IN_MKDIR in parent's configfs_dirent before calling attach_group(), and clears the flag once attach_group() is done. detach_prep() fails with -EAGAIN whenever the flag is hit and returns the guilty inode's mutex so that rmdir() can wait on it.

| * configfs: Fix deadlock with racing rmdir() and rename()Louis Rilling2008-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the deadlock between racing sys_rename() and configfs_rmdir(). The idea is to avoid locking i_mutexes of default groups in configfs_detach_prep(), and rely instead on the new configfs_dirent_lock to protect against configfs_dirent's linkage mutations. To ensure that an mkdir() racing with rmdir() will not create new items in a to-be-removed default group, we make configfs_new_dirent() check for the CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING flag right before linking the new dirent, and return error if the flag is set. This makes racing mkdir()/symlink()/dir_open() fail in places where errors could already happen, resp. in (attach_item()|attach_group())/create_link()/new_dirent(). configfs_depend() remains safe since it locks all the path from configfs root, and is thus mutually exclusive with rmdir(). An advantage of this is that now detach_groups() unconditionnaly takes the default groups i_mutex, which makes it more consistent with populate_groups().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes configfs_new_dirent return negative error code instead of NULL, which will be useful in the next patch to differentiate ENOMEM from ENOENT. Signed-off-by: Louis Rilling <Louis.Rilling@kerlabs.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
| * configfs: Protect configfs_dirent s_links list mutationsLouis Rilling2008-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Symlinks to a config_item are listed under its configfs_dirent s_links, but the list mutations are not protected by any common lock. This patch uses the configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to add the necessary protection. Note: we should also protect the list_empty() test in configfs_detach_prep() but 1/ the lock should not be released immediately because nothing would prevent the list from being filled after a successful list_empty() test, making the problem tricky, 2/ this will be solved by the rmdir() vs rename() deadlock bugfix.

| * configfs: Introduce configfs_dirent_lockLouis Rilling2008-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to protect configfs_dirent traversals against linkage mutations (add/del/move). This will allow configfs_detach_prep() to avoid locking i_mutexes. Locking rules for configfs_dirent linkage mutations are the same plus the requirement of taking configfs_dirent_lock. For configfs_dirent walking, one can either take appropriate i_mutex as before, or take configfs_dirent_lock. The spinlock could actually be a mutex, but the critical sections are either O(1) or should not be too long (default groups walking in last patch). ChangeLog: - Clarify the comment on configfs_dirent_lock usage - Move sd->s_element init before linking the new dirent - In lseek(), do not release configfs_dirent_lock before the dirent is relinked.

| * ocfs2: Don't snprintf() without a format.Joel Becker2008-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some system files are per-slot. Their names include the slot number. ocfs2_sprintf_system_inode_name() uses the system inode definitions to fill in the slot number with snprintf(). For global system files, there is no node number, and the name was printed as a format with no arguments. -Wformat-nonliteral and -Wformat-security don't like this. Instead, use a static "%s" format and the name as the argument. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes an arcane bug that we think was a regression introduced by commit b2b2cbc4b2a2f389442549399a993a8306420baf. When a parent ignores SIGCHLD (or uses SA_NOCLDWAIT), its children would self-reap but they don't if it's using ptrace on them. When the parent thread later exits and ceases to ptrace a child but leaves other live threads in the parent's thread group, any zombie children are left dangling. The fix makes them self-reap then, as they would have done earlier if ptrace had not been in use. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

That change reverted the effect of commit 73243284463a761e04d69d22c7516b2be7de096c. The rationale for the original commit still stands. The inconsistent treatment of children hidden by ptrace was an unintended omission in the original change and in no way invalidates its purpose. This makes do_wait return the error returned by security_task_wait() (usually -EACCES) in place of -ECHILD when there are some children the caller would be able to wait for if not for the permission failure. A permission error will give the user a clue to look for security policy problems, rather than for mysterious wait bugs. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

Now ptrace, whether of one's own children or another's via PTRACE_ATTACH, just uses the new ptraced list instead. There should be no user-visible difference that matters. The only change is the order in which do_wait() sees multiple stopped children and stopped ptrace attachees. Since wait_task_stopped() was changed earlier so it no longer reorders the children list, we already know this won't cause any new problems. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This breaks out the guts of do_wait into three subfunctions. The control flow is less nonobvious without so much goto. do_wait_thread and ptrace_do_wait contain the main work of the outer loop. wait_consider_task contains the main work of the inner loop.
