2009-05-13Revert "Ignore madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) for hugetlbfs-backed regions"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit a425a638c858fd10370b573bde81df3ba500e271. Now that the previous commit removed the "readpage" actor for hugetlb files, read-ahead will no longer mess up the mapping, and there's no longer any reason to treat hugetlbfs mappings specially.

2009-05-13Remove implementation of readpage from the hugetlbfs_aopsMel Gorman
The core VM assumes the page size used by the address_space in inode->i_mapping is PAGE_SIZE but hugetlbfs breaks this assumption by inserting pages into the page cache at offsets the core VM considers unexpected. This would not be a problem except that hugetlbfs also provide a ->readpage implementation. As it exists, the core VM can assume the base page size is being used, allocate pages on behalf of the filesystem, insert them into the page cache and call ->readpage to populate them. These pages are the wrong size and at the wrong offset for hugetlbfs causing confusion. This patch deletes the ->readpage implementation for hugetlbfs on the grounds the core VM should not be allocating and populating pages on behalf of hugetlbfs. There should be no existing users of the ->readpage implementation so it should not cause a regression.

This patch lets dma driver recognize if unmap_single or unmap_page should be used. It introduces two new dma control flags: DMA_COMPL_SRC_UNMAP_SINGLE and DMA_COMPL_DEST_UNMAP_SINGLE. They should be set to indicate dma driver to do dma-unmapping as single (first one for the source, tha latter for the destination). If respective flag is not set, the driver assumes dma-unmapping as page.

2009-05-11libata: fix attach error handlingTejun Heo
New device attach path in ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach() is divided into two separate loops because ATA requires IDENTIFY to be issued to slave first while the user expects to see device probe messages from the master device. new_mask is used to track which devices are the new ones between the first loop and the second. This usually works well but if an error occurs during configuration stage, ata_dev_revalidate_and_attach() returns with error code and forgets new_mask. On the retry run, dev->class is set and new_mask for the device is clear, so the device just gets revalidated and thus ends up skipping post-configuration procedure including scheduling of SCSI_HOTPLUG for the device. When this occurs, ATA part of probing works fine but SCSI probing usually doesn't happen and makes the device unreachable. The behavior has been around for a very long time but it has been uncovered with the recent addition of 1_5_GBPS horkage which uses -EAGAIN return value from ata_dev_configure() to restart the probing sequence after forcing cable speed. This can be fixed by making sure dev->class is permanently set only after all configurations are successfully complete. Fix it.

2009-05-12nilfs2: check size of array structured data exchanged via ioctlsRyusuke Konishi
Although some ioctls of nilfs2 exchange data in the form of indirectly referenced array, some of them lack size check on the array elements. This inserts the missing checks and rejects requests if data of ioctl does not have a valid format. We usually don't have to check size of structures that we associated with ioctl commands because the size is tested implicitly for identifying ioctl command; the checks this patch adds are for the cases where the implicit check is not applied.

2009-05-11intel-iommu: PAE memory corruption fixDavid Woodhouse
PAGE_MASK is 0xFFFFF000 on i386 -- even with PAE. So it's not sufficient to ensure that you use phys_addr_t or uint64_t everywhere you handle physical addresses -- you also have to avoid using the construct 'addr & PAGE_MASK', because that will strip the high 32 bits of the address. This patch avoids that problem by using PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK instead of PAGE_MASK where appropriate. It leaves '& PAGE_MASK' in a few instances that don't matter -- where it's being used on the virtual bus addresses we're dishing out, which are 32-bit anyway. Since PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK is not present on other architectures, we have to define it (to PAGE_MASK) if it's not already defined. Maybe it would be better just to fix PAGE_MASK for i386/PAE?

This corrects lock order reversal between mm->mmap_sem and nilfs->ns_segctor_sem in nilfs_clean_segments() which was detected by lockdep check: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.30-rc3-nilfs-00003-g360bdc1 #7 ------------------------------------------------------- mmap/5294 is trying to acquire lock: (&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem){++++.+}, at: [<d0d0e846>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] but task is already holding lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<c043700a>] do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}: [<c01470a5>] __lock_acquire+0x1066/0x13b0 [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<c01836bc>] might_fault+0x68/0x88 [<c023c61d>] copy_from_user+0x2a/0x111 [<d0d120d0>] nilfs_ioctl_prepare_clean_segments+0x1d/0xf1 [nilfs2] [<d0d0e2aa>] nilfs_clean_segments+0x6d/0x1b9 [nilfs2] [<d0d11f68>] nilfs_ioctl+0x2ad/0x318 [nilfs2] [<c01a3be7>] vfs_ioctl+0x22/0x69 [<c01a408e>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x460/0x499 [<c01a4107>] sys_ioctl+0x40/0x5a [<c01031a4>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff -> #0 (&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem){++++.+}: [<c0146e0b>] __lock_acquire+0xdcc/0x13b0 [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<c0433f1d>] down_read+0x2a/0x3e [<d0d0e846>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0cfe0e5>] nilfs_page_mkwrite+0xe7/0x154 [nilfs2] [<c0183b0b>] __do_fault+0x165/0x376 [<c01855cd>] handle_mm_fault+0x287/0x5d1 [<c043712d>] do_page_fault+0x2fb/0x30a [<c0435462>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff where nilfs_clean_segments() holds: nilfs->ns_segctor_sem -> copy_from_user() --> page fault -> mm->mmap_sem And, page fault path may hold: page fault -> mm->mmap_sem --> nilfs_page_mkwrite() -> nilfs->ns_segctor_sem Even though nilfs_clean_segments() does not perform write access on given user pages, it may cause deadlock because nilfs->ns_segctor_sem is shared per device and mm->mmap_sem can be shared with other tasks. To avoid this problem, this patch moves all calls of copy_from_user() outside the nilfs->ns_segctor_sem lock in the ioctl. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
2009-05-11nilfs2: fix possible circular locking for get information ioctlsRyusuke Konishi
This is one of two patches which are to correct possible circular locking between mm->mmap_sem and nilfs->ns_segctor_sem. The problem was detected by lockdep check as follows: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.30-rc3-nilfs-00002-g3552613 #6 ------------------------------------------------------- mmap/5418 is trying to acquire lock: (&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem){++++.+}, at: [<d0d0e852>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] but task is already holding lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<c043700a>] do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}: [<c01470a5>] __lock_acquire+0x1066/0x13b0 [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<c01836bc>] might_fault+0x68/0x88 [<c023c730>] copy_to_user+0x2c/0xfc [<d0d11b4f>] nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy+0x103/0x160 [nilfs2] [<d0d11fa9>] nilfs_ioctl+0x30a/0x3b0 [nilfs2] [<c01a3be7>] vfs_ioctl+0x22/0x69 [<c01a408e>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x460/0x499 [<c01a4107>] sys_ioctl+0x40/0x5a [<c01031a4>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff -> #0 (&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem){++++.+}: [<c0146e0b>] __lock_acquire+0xdcc/0x13b0 [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<c0433f1d>] down_read+0x2a/0x3e [<d0d0e852>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0cfe0e5>] nilfs_page_mkwrite+0xe7/0x154 [nilfs2] [<c0183b0b>] __do_fault+0x165/0x376 [<c01855cd>] handle_mm_fault+0x287/0x5d1 [<c043712d>] do_page_fault+0x2fb/0x30a [<c0435462>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by mmap/5418: #0: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<c043700a>] do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a stack backtrace: Pid: 5418, comm: mmap Not tainted 2.6.30-rc3-nilfs-00002-g3552613 #6 Call Trace: [<c0432145>] ? printk+0xf/0x12 [<c0145c48>] print_circular_bug_tail+0xaa/0xb5 [<c0146e0b>] __lock_acquire+0xdcc/0x13b0 [<d0d10149>] ? nilfs_sufile_get_stat+0x1e/0x105 [nilfs2] [<c013b59a>] ? up_read+0x16/0x2c [<d0d10225>] ? nilfs_sufile_get_stat+0xfa/0x105 [nilfs2] [<c01474a9>] lock_acquire+0xba/0xdd [<d0d0e852>] ? nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<c0433f1d>] down_read+0x2a/0x3e [<d0d0e852>] ? nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0d0e852>] nilfs_transaction_begin+0xb6/0x10c [nilfs2] [<d0cfe0e5>] nilfs_page_mkwrite+0xe7/0x154 [nilfs2] [<c0183b0b>] __do_fault+0x165/0x376 [<c01855cd>] handle_mm_fault+0x287/0x5d1 [<c043700a>] ? do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x30a [<c013b54f>] ? down_read_trylock+0x39/0x43 [<c043712d>] do_page_fault+0x2fb/0x30a [<c0436e32>] ? do_page_fault+0x0/0x30a [<c0435462>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<c0436e32>] ? do_page_fault+0x0/0x30a This makes the lock granularity of nilfs->ns_segctor_sem finer than that of the mmap semaphore for ioctl commands except nilfs_clean_segments(). The successive patch ("nilfs2: fix lock order reversal in nilfs_clean_segments ioctl") is required to fully resolve the problem. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>
