* loop: use BIO list management functionsAkinobu Mita2009-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | Now that the bio list management stuff is generic, convert loop to use bio lists instead of its own private bio list implementation.

* hd: fix lockingTejun Heo2009-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hd dance around local irq and HD_IRQ enable without achieving much. It ends up transferring data from irq handler with both local irq and HD_IRQ disabled. The only place it actually does something is while transferring the first block of a request which it does with HD_IRQ disabled but local irq enabled. Unfortunately, the dancing is horribly broken from locking POV. IRQ and timeout handlers access block queue without grabbing the queue lock and running the driver in SMP configuration crashes the whole machine pretty quickly. Remove meaningless irq enable/disable dancing and add proper locking in issue, irq and timeout paths. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

* umem: fix request_queue lock warningSage Weil2009-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The umem driver issues two warnings on boot, due to blk_plug_device() and blk_remove_plug() being called without q->queue_lock held. Starting with e48ec690 (block: extend queue_flag bitops), the queue_flag_* functions warn if q->queue_lock doesn't appear to be locked. In fact, q->queue_lock is NULL (though that apparently isn't otherwise a problem as the driver is using card->lock for everything). Although blk_init_queue() with take a request_fn_proc and spinlock_t*, there isn't a corresponding init helper that takes a make_request_fn. Setting queue_lock to &card->lock explicitly seems to work fine for me. The warning goes away and the device appears to behave.

* USB: add reset endpoint operationsDavid Vrabel2009-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wireless USB endpoint state has a sequence number and a current window and not just a single toggle bit. So allow HCDs to provide a endpoint_reset method and call this or clear the software toggles as required (after a clear halt, set configuration etc.). usb_settoggle() and friends are then HCD internal and are moved into core/hcd.h and all device drivers call usb_reset_endpoint() instead. If the device endpoint state has been reset (with a clear halt) but the host endpoint state has not then subsequent data transfers will not complete. The device will only work again after it is reset or disconnected. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@csr.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

* xsysace: Fix dereferencing of cf_id after hd_driveid removalGrant Likely2009-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 4aaf2fec718f6fbf38668edf733a0ab09a49cab1 (xsysace: make it 'struct hd_driveid'-free) converted the cf_id member of 'struct ace_device' from a 'struct hd_driveid' to a u16 array. However, references to the base of the structure were still using the '&' operator. When the address was used with the ata_id_u32() macro, the compiler used the size of the entire array instead of sizeof(u16) to calculate the offset from the base address. This patch removes the use of the '&' operator from all references of cf_id to fix the bug and remove future confusion.

Mflash is embedded flash drive and mainly targeted mobile and consumer electronic devices. Internally, mflash has nand flash and other hardware logics and supports 2 different operation (ATA, IO) modes. ATA mode doesn't need any new driver and currently works well under standard IDE subsystem. Actually it's one chip SSD. IO mode is ATA-like custom mode for the host that doesn't have IDE interface. Followings are brief descriptions about IO mode. A. IO mode based on ATA protocol and uses some custom command. (read confirm, write confirm) B. IO mode uses SRAM bus interface. C. IO mode supports 4kB boot area, so host can boot from mflash. This driver is quitely similar to a standard ATA driver, but because of following reasons it is currently seperated with ATA layer. 1. ATA layer deals standard ATA protocol. ATA layer have many low- level device specific interface, but data transfer keeps ATA rule. But, mflash IO mode doesn't. 2. Even though currently not used in mflash driver code, mflash has some custom command and modes. (nand fusing, firmware patch, etc) If this feature supported in linux kernel, ATA layer more altered. 3. Currently PATA platform device driver doesn't support interrupt. (I'm not sure) But, mflash uses interrupt (polling mode is just for debug). 4. mflash is somewhat under-develop product. Even though some company already using mflash their own product, I think more time is needed for standardization of custom command and mode. That time (maybe October) I will talk to with ATA people. If they accept integration, I will integrate.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The MSA2012 cannot inform the driver of configuration changes since all management is out of band. This is a departure from any storage we have supported in the past. We need some way to detect changes on the topology so we implement this kernel thread. In some instances there's nothing we can do from the driver (like LUN failure) so just print out a message. In the case where logical volumes are added or deleted we call rebuild_lun_table to refresh the driver's view of the world.

* loop: add ioctl to resize a loop deviceJ. R. Okajima2009-04-01

One practical application is a loop file with XFS filesystem, already mounted: You can easily enlarge the file (append some bytes) and then call ioctl(fd, LOOP_SET_CAPACITY, new); The loop driver will learn about the new size and you can use xfs_growfs later on, which will allow you to use full capacity of the loop file without the need to unmount.

* proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::ownerAlexey Dobriyan2009-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>

Open/close on a loop device acquires bd_mutex of the device before acquiring lo_ctl_mutex of the same device. For ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) after acquiring lo_ctl_mutex, fput on the backing_file might acquire the bd_mutex of a device, if backing file is a device and this is the last reference to the file being dropped . But it is guaranteed that it is impossible to have a circular list of backing devices.(say loop2->loop1->loop0->loop2 is not possible), which guarantees that this can never deadlock. So this warning should be suppressed. It is very difficult to annotate lockdep not to warn here in the correct way. A simple way to silence lockdep could be to mark the lo_ctl_mutex in ioctl to be a sub class, but this might mask some other real bugs. @@ -1164,7 +1164,7 @@ static int lo_ioctl(struct block_device *bdev, fmode_t mode, struct loop_device *lo = bdev->bd_disk->private_data; int err; - mutex_lock(&lo->lo_ctl_mutex); + mutex_lock_nested(&lo->lo_ctl_mutex, 1); switch (cmd) { case LOOP_SET_FD: err = loop_set_fd(lo, mode, bdev, arg); Or actually marking the bd_mutex after lo_ctl_mutex as a sub class could be a better solution. Luckily it is easy to avoid calling fput on backing file with lo_ctl_mutex held, so no lockdep annotation is required. If you do not like the special handling of the lo_ctl_mutex just for the LOOP_CLR_FD ioctl in lo_ioctl(), the mutex handling could be moved inside each of the individual ioctl handlers and I could send you another patch.

It makes the following large-scale changes: Remove a bunch of unnecessary #ifdef's from usb_usual.h. Not truly necessary, but it does clean things up. Move the USB device-ID table (which is duplicated between libusual and usb-storage) into its own source file, usual-tables.c, and arrange for this to be linked with either libusual or usb-storage according to whether USB_LIBUSUAL is configured. Add to usual-tables.c a new usb_usual_ignore_device() function to detect whether a particular device needs to be managed by a subdriver and not by the standard handlers in usb-storage. Export a whole bunch of functions in usb-storage, renaming some of them because their names don't already begin with "usb_stor_". These functions will be needed by the new subdriver modules. Split usb-storage's probe routine into two functions. The subdrivers will call the probe1 routine, then fill in their transport and protocol settings, and then call the probe2 routine. Take the default cases and error checking out of get_transport() and get_protocol(), which run during probe1, and instead put a check for invalid transport or protocol values into the probe2 function. Add a new probe routine to be used for standard devices, i.e., those that don't need a subdriver. This new routine checks whether the device should be ignored (because it should be handled by ub or by a subdriver), and if not, calls the probe1 and probe2 functions.

* xen/blkfront: use blk_rq_map_sg to generate ring entriesJens Axboe2009-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On occasion, the request will apparently have more segments than we fit into the ring. Jens says: > The second problem is that the block layer then appears to create one > too many segments, but from the dump it has rq->nr_phys_segments == > BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST. I suspect the latter is due to > xen-blkfront not handling the merging on its own. It should check that > the new page doesn't form part of the previous page. The > rq_for_each_segment() iterates all single bits in the request, not dma > segments. The "easiest" way to do this is to call blk_rq_map_sg() and > then iterate the mapped sg list.

* cciss: shorten 30s timeout on controller resetJens Axboe2009-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | If reset_devices is set for kexec, then cciss will delay 30 seconds since the old 5i controller _may_ need that long to recover. Replace the long sleep with incremental sleep and tests to reduce the 30 seconds to worst case for 5i, so that other controllers will proceed quickly.
