* dm: verity fix documentationMilan Broz2012-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | Veritysetup is now part of cryptsetup package. Remove on-disk header description (which is not parsed in kernel) and point users to cryptsetup where it the format is documented. Mention units for block size paramaters. Fix target line specification and dmsetup parameters. Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
* dm persistent data: fix allocation failure in space map checker initMike Snitzer2012-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If CONFIG_DM_DEBUG_SPACE_MAPS is enabled and memory is fragmented and a sufficiently-large metadata device is used in a thin pool then the space map checker will fail to allocate the memory it requires. Switch from kmalloc to vmalloc to allow larger virtually contiguous allocations for the space map checker's internal count arrays.

* dm persistent data: handle space map checker creation failureMike Snitzer2012-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If CONFIG_DM_DEBUG_SPACE_MAPS is enabled and dm_sm_checker_create() fails, dm_tm_create_internal() would still return success even though it cleaned up all resources it was supposed to have created. This will lead to a kernel crash: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC ...

* dm thin: commit metadata before creating metadata snapshotJoe Thornber2012-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userland sometimes sees a corrupt metadata block if metadata is changing rapidly when a metadata snapshot is reserved for userland, To make the problem go away, commit before we take the metadata snapshot (which is a sensible thing to do anyway). The checksums mean userland spots this corruption immediately so there's no risk of acting on incorrect data. No corruption exists from the kernel's point of view, and thin_check passes after pool shutdown. I believe this is to do with shared blocks at the first level of the {device, mapping} btree. Prior to the metadata-snap support no sharing at this level was possible, so this patch is only required after commit cc8394d86f045b86ff303d3c9e4ce47d97148951 ("dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadata").

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While upgrading the kernel on a S3C2412 based board I've noted that it was impossible to boot the board with a 2.6.32 or upper kernel. I've tracked down the problem to the EBI virtual memory mapping that is in conflict with the IO mapping definition in arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/s3c2412.c.

This fix allows the kernel to boot without failure using a simple RAMDISK file system on OMAP4470 blaze board. Per feedback from Paul and Benoit the 4470 clock data is incomplete for new modules such as the 2D graphics block that has been added to the 4470. Therefore add a warning to indicate that the clock data is incomplete.

This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed information would never reach the consoles. Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic, and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount of needed record headers to store.

| * | | | | | syslog: fill buffer with more than a single message for SYSLOG_ACTION_READJan Beulich2012-06-26

As, when too small to fit everything, filling it to the last byte would be pretty ugly with the new code, the patch arranges for as many messages as possible to get returned in a single invocation. User space tools in at least all SLES versions depend on the old behavior. This at once addresses the issue attempted to get fixed with commit b56a39ac263e5b8cafedd551a49c2105e68b98c2 ("printk: return -EINVAL if the message len is bigger than the buf size"), and since that commit widened the possibility for losing a message altogether, the patch here assumes that this other commit would get reverted first (otherwise the patch here won't apply). Furthermore, this patch also addresses the problem dealt with in commit 4a77a5a06ec66ed05199b301e7c25f42f979afdc ("printk: use mutex lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild"), so I'd recommend reverting that one too (albeit there's no direct collision between the two).

To users of these kernels they are very serious and failing to fix them reduces the value of -stable. The problem is that the patches fixing these issues are often subtle and prone to regressions in other ways and need greater care and attention. To combat this, these "serious" backports should have a higher barrier to entry. This patch relaxes the rules to allow a distribution maintainer to merge to -stable a backported patch or small series that fixes a "serious" user-visible performance issue. They should include additional information on the user-visible bug affected and a link to the bugzilla entry if available. The same rules about the patch being already in mainline still apply.

This patch fixes the regression that caused this issue in the first place. acpi_idle_suspend flag is essential on some x86 systems to prevent the cpus from going to deeper C-states when suspend is triggered ( commit b04e7bdb984 ) So reverting the commit 3439a8da is essential. By default, irqs are disabled in cpu_idle arch specific call and re-enabled in idle state return path . During suspend, the acpi_idle_suspend flag is set, which prevents the cpus from going to deeper idle states, it is essential to enabling the irqs in this return path too. To address the suspend issue, we were not re-enabling the interrupts while returning from acpi_idle_enter_bm() routine if acpi_idle_suspend flag is set. and this caused suspend failure. In addition to the above, to improve the readability of the code, return of -ENIVAL is replaced with -EBUSY in acpi_idle_suspend return path. Implying that the system is currently busy when suspend is in progress, which prevents the cpus from entering deeper C-states.

I figured it was due to tracing a function that shouldn't be, so I went through the following process to bisect to find the culprit: cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions > t num=`wc -l t` sed -ne "1,${num}p" t > t1 let num=num+1 sed -ne "${num},$p" t > t2 cat t1 > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter echo function /debug/tracing/current_tracer <failed? bisect t1, if not bisect t2> It finally came down to this function: restore_interrupts() I'm not sure why this locks up the system. It just seems to prevent scheduling from occurring. Interrupts seem to still work, as I can ping the box. But all user processes freeze. When restore_interrupts() is not traced, function tracing works fine.
