Not a huge round this time, it contains: - First series from Kent cleaning up and generalizing bio allocation and freeing. - WRITE_SAME support from Martin. - Mikulas patches to prevent O_DIRECT crashes when someone changes the block size of a device. - Make bio_split() work on data-less bio's (like trim/discards). - A few other minor fixups." Fixed up silent semantic mis-merge as per Mikulas Patocka and Andrew Morton. It is due to the VM no longer using a prio-tree (see commit 6b2dbba8b6ac: "mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval tree"). So make set_blocksize() use mapping_mapped() instead of open-coding the internal VM knowledge that has changed. * 'for-3.7/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (26 commits) block: makes bio_split support bio without data scatterlist: refactor the sg_nents scatterlist: add sg_nents fs: fix include/percpu-rwsem.h export error percpu-rw-semaphore: fix documentation typos fs/block_dev.c:1644:5: sparse: symbol 'blkdev_mmap' was not declared blockdev: turn a rw semaphore into a percpu rw semaphore Fix a crash when block device is read and block size is changed at the same time block: fix request_queue->flags initialization block: lift the initial queue bypass mode on blk_register_queue() instead of blk_init_allocated_queue() block: ioctl to zero block ranges block: Make blkdev_issue_zeroout use WRITE SAME block: Implement support for WRITE SAME block: Consolidate command flag and queue limit checks for merges block: Clean up special command handling logic block/blk-tag.c: Remove useless kfree block: remove the duplicated setting for congestion_threshold block: reject invalid queue attribute values block: Add bio_clone_bioset(), bio_clone_kmalloc() block: Consolidate bio_alloc_bioset(), bio_kmalloc() ...

| * blockdev: turn a rw semaphore into a percpu rw semaphoreMikulas Patocka2012-09-262-1/+91
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids cache line bouncing when many processes lock the semaphore for read. New percpu lock implementation The lock consists of an array of percpu unsigned integers, a boolean variable and a mutex. When we take the lock for read, we enter rcu read section, check for a "locked" variable. If it is false, we increase a percpu counter on the current cpu and exit the rcu section. If "locked" is true, we exit the rcu section, take the mutex and drop it (this waits until a writer finished) and retry. Unlocking for read just decreases percpu variable. Note that we can unlock on a difference cpu than where we locked, in this case the counter underflows. The sum of all percpu counters represents the number of processes that hold the lock for read. When we need to lock for write, we take the mutex, set "locked" variable to true and synchronize rcu. Since RCU has been synchronized, no processes can create new read locks. We wait until the sum of percpu counters is zero - when it is, there are no readers in the critical section.

| * Fix a crash when block device is read and block size is changed at the same timeMikulas Patocka2012-09-261-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel may crash when block size is changed and I/O is issued simultaneously. Because some subsystems (udev or lvm) may read any block device anytime, the bug actually puts any code that changes a block device size in jeopardy. The crash can be reproduced if you place "msleep(1000)" to blkdev_get_blocks just before "bh->b_size = max_blocks << inode->i_blkbits;". Then, run "dd if=/dev/ram0 of=/dev/null bs=4k count=1 iflag=direct" While it is waiting in msleep, run "blockdev --setbsz 2048 /dev/ram0" You get a BUG. The direct and non-direct I/O is written with the assumption that block size does not change. It doesn't seem practical to fix these crashes one-by-one there may be many crash possibilities when block size changes at a certain place and it is impossible to find them all and verify the code. This patch introduces a new rw-lock bd_block_size_semaphore. The lock is taken for read during I/O. It is taken for write when changing block size. Consequently, block size can't be changed while I/O is being submitted. For asynchronous I/O, the patch only prevents block size change while the I/O is being submitted. The block size can change when the I/O is in progress or when the I/O is being finished. This is acceptable because there are no accesses to block size when asynchronous I/O is being finished. The patch prevents block size changing while the device is mapped with mmap. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The WRITE SAME command supported on some SCSI devices allows the same block to be efficiently replicated throughout a block range. Only a single logical block is transferred from the host and the storage device writes the same data to all blocks described by the I/O. This patch implements support for WRITE SAME in the block layer. The blkdev_issue_write_same() function can be used by filesystems and block drivers to replicate a buffer across a block range.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, there was bio_clone() but it only allocated from the fs bio set; as a result various users were open coding it and using __bio_clone(). This changes bio_clone() to become bio_clone_bioset(), and then we add bio_clone() and bio_clone_kmalloc() as wrappers around it, making use of the functionality the last patch adedd. This will also help in a later patch changing how bio cloning works.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() behaved slightly different because there was some almost-duplicated code - this fixes some of that. The important change is that previously bio_kmalloc() always set bi_io_vec = bi_inline_vecs, even if nr_iovecs == 0 - unlike bio_alloc_bioset(). This would cause bio_has_data() to return true; I don't know if this resulted in any actual bugs but it was certainly wrong. bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() also have different arbitrary limits on nr_iovecs - 1024 (UIO_MAXIOV) for bio_kmalloc(), 256 (BIO_MAX_PAGES) for bio_alloc_bioset(). This patch doesn't fix that, but at least they're enforced closer together and hopefully they will be fixed in a later patch. This'll also help with some future cleanups - there are a fair number of functions that allocate bios (e.g. bio_clone()), and now they don't have to be duplicated for bio_alloc(), bio_alloc_bioset(), and bio_kmalloc().

This patch also makes bio_free() static, since without bi_destructor there should be no need for it to be called anywhere else. bio_free() is now only called from bio_put, so we can refactor those a bit - move some code from bio_put() to bio_free() and kill the redundant bio->bi_next = NULL. v5: Switch to BIO_KMALLOC_POOL ((void *)~0), per Boaz v6: BIO_KMALLOC_POOL now NULL, drop bio_free's EXPORT_SYMBOL v7: No #define BIO_KMALLOC_POOL anymore Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reusing bios is something that's been highly frowned upon in the past, but driver code keeps doing it anyways. If it's going to happen anyways, we should provide a generic method. This'll help with getting rid of bi_destructor - drivers/block/pktcdvd.c was open coding it, by doing a bio_init() and resetting bi_destructor. This required reordering struct bio, but the block layer is not yet nearly fast enough for any cacheline effects to matter here. v5: Add a define BIO_RESET_BITS, to be very explicit about what parts of bio->bi_flags are saved. v6: Further commenting verbosity, per Tejun v9: Add a function comment Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

| * | NFS: Discover NFSv4 server trunking when mountingChuck Lever2012-10-011-0/+1

Trunking might occur if a client sends NFS requests for a single workload to multiple network interfaces on the same server. There are some implications for NFSv4 state management that make it useful for a client to know if a single NFSv4 server instance is multi-homed. (Note this is only a consideration for NFSv4, not for legacy versions of NFS, which are stateless). If a client cares about server trunking, no NFSv4 operations can proceed until that client determines who it is talking to. Thus server IP trunking discovery must be done when the client first encounters an unfamiliar server IP address. The nfs_get_client() function walks the nfs_client_list and matches on server IP address. The outcome of that walk tells us immediately if we have an unfamiliar server IP address. It invokes nfs_init_client() in this case. Thus, nfs4_init_client() is a good spot to perform trunking discovery. Discovery requires a client to establish a fresh client ID, so our client will now send SETCLIENTID or EXCHANGE_ID as the first NFS operation after a successful ping, rather than waiting for an application to perform an operation that requires NFSv4 state. The exact process for detecting trunking is different for NFSv4.0 and NFSv4.1, so a minorversion-specific init_client callout method is introduced. CLID_INUSE recovery is important for the trunking discovery process. CLID_INUSE is a sign the server recognizes the client's nfs_client_id4 id string, but the client is using the wrong principal this time for the SETCLIENTID operation. The SETCLIENTID must be retried with a series of different principals until one works, and then the rest of trunking discovery can proceed.

| * | NFS: Introduce "migration" mount optionChuck Lever2012-10-011-0/+2

To support transparent state migration, the Linux client will have to use the same nfs_client_id4 string for all servers it communicates with (also known as the "uniform client string" approach). Otherwise NFS servers can not recognize that open and lock state need to be merged after a file system transition. Unfortunately, there are some NFSv4.0 servers currently in the field that do not tolerate the uniform client string approach. Thus, by default, our NFSv4.0 mounts will continue to use the current approach, and we introduce a mount option that switches them to use the uniform model. Client administrators must identify which servers can be mounted with this option. Eventually most NFSv4.0 servers will be able to handle the uniform approach, and we can change the default. The first mount of a server controls the behavior for all subsequent mounts for the lifetime of that set of mounts of that server. After the last mount of that server is gone, the client erases the data structure that tracks the lease. A subsequent lease may then honor a different "migration" setting. This patch adds only the infrastructure for parsing the new mount option. Support for uniform client strings is added in a subsequent patch.

| * | SUNRPC: Introduce rpc_clone_client_set_auth()Chuck Lever2012-10-011-0/+2

However, rpcauth_create() in 3.5 reliably fails with -EEXIST in this case. This is because when gss_create() attempts to create the upcall pipes, sometimes they are already there. For example if a pipe FS mount event occurs, or a previous GSS flavor was in use for this rpc_clnt. It turns out that's not the only problem here. While working on a fix for the above problem, we noticed that replacing an rpc_clnt's rpc_auth is not safe, since dereferencing the cl_auth field is not protected in any way. So we're deprecating the ability of rpcauth_create() to switch an rpc_clnt's security flavor during normal operation. Instead, let's add a fresh API that clones an rpc_clnt and gives the clone a new flavor before it's used. This makes immediate use of the new __rpc_clone_client() helper. This can be used in a similar fashion to rpcauth_create() when a client is hunting for the correct security flavor. Instead of replacing an rpc_clnt's security flavor in a loop, the ULP replaces the whole rpc_clnt. To fix the -EEXIST problem, any ULP logic that relies on replacing an rpc_clnt's rpc_auth with rpcauth_create() must be changed to use this API instead.

| * | NFSv4: Add ACCESS operation to OPEN compoundWeston Andros Adamson2012-10-012-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The OPEN operation has no way to differentiate an open for read and an open for execution - both look like read to the server. This allowed users to read files that didn't have READ access but did have EXEC access, which is obviously wrong. This patch adds an ACCESS call to the OPEN compound to handle the difference between OPENs for reading and execution. Since we're going through the trouble of calling ACCESS, we check all possible access bits and cache the results hopefully avoiding an ACCESS call in the future.

The plan for 3.8 is to adapt all board files to provide a lookup table for PWM devices in order to get rid of the global namespace. Subsequently, users of the legacy pwm_request() and pwm_free() functions can be migrated to the new pwm_get() and pwm_put() functions. Once this has been completed, the legacy API and the compatibility code in the core can be removed. In addition to the above, these changes also add support for configuring the polarity of a PWM signal (currently only supported on ECAP and EHRPWM) and include a much needed rework of the i.MX driver. Managed functions to obtain and release a PWM device (devm_pwm_get() and devm_pwm_put()) have been added and the pwm-backlight driver has been updated to use them. If the PWM subsystem hasn't been enabled, dummy functions are provided that allow the subsystem to safely compile out. Some common checks on input parameters have been moved to the core and removed from the drivers. Finally, a small fix corrects the description of the PWM specifier's second cell in the device tree representation." * tag 'for-3.7-rc1' of git://gitorious.org/linux-pwm/linux-pwm: (23 commits) pwm: dt: Fix description of second PWM cell pwm: Check for negative duty-cycle and period pwm: Add Ingenic JZ4740 support MIPS: JZ4740: Export timer API pwm: Move PUV3 PWM driver to PWM framework unicore32: pwm: Use managed resource allocations unicore32: pwm: Remove unnecessary indirection unicore32: pwm: Use module_platform_driver() unicore32: pwm: Properly remap memory-mapped registers pwm-backlight: Use devm_pwm_get() instead of pwm_get() pwm: Move AB8500 PWM driver to PWM framework pwm: Fix compilation error when CONFIG_PWM is not defined pwm: i.MX: fix clock lookup pwm: i.MX: use per clock unconditionally pwm: i.MX: add devicetree support pwm: i.MX: Use module_platform_driver pwm: i.MX: add functions to enable/disable pwm. pwm: i.MX: remove unnecessary if in pwm_[en|dis]able pwm: i.MX: factor out SoC specific functions pwm: pwm-tiehrpwm: Add support for configuring polarity of PWM ...

| * | | pwm: Add support for configuring the PWM polarityPhilip, Avinash2012-09-101-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some hardware supports inverting the polarity of the PWM signal. This commit adds support to the PWM framework to allow users of the PWM API to configure the polarity. Note that in order to reduce complexity, changing the polarity of a PWM signal is only allowed while the PWM is disabled. A practical example where this can prove useful is to simulate inversion of the duty cycle. While inversion of polarity and duty cycle are not exactly the same, the differences for most use-cases are negligible.

Architectures can define __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE and use it, provided that * they have working current_pt_regs(), even for kernel threads. * kernel_thread-spawned threads do have space for pt_regs in the normal location. Normally that's as simple as switching to generic kernel_thread() and making sure that kernel threads do *not* go through return from syscall path; call the payload from equivalent of ret_from_fork if we are in a kernel thread (or just have separate ret_from_kernel_thread and make copy_thread() use it instead of ret_from_fork in kernel thread case). * they have ret_from_kernel_execve(); it is called after successful do_execve() done by kernel_execve() and gets normal pt_regs location passed to it as argument. It's essentially a longjmp() analog - it should set sp, etc. to the situation expected at the return for syscall and go there. Eventually the need for that sucker will disappear, but that'll take some surgery on kernel_thread() payloads. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

However, if an architecture can optimize that, it can do so by making a macro of its own available from asm/ptrace.h. More importantly, some architectures have task_pt_regs() working only for traced tasks blocked on signal delivery. current_pt_regs() needs to work for *all* processes, so before those architectures start using stuff relying on current_pt_regs() they'll need a properly working variant.
