* | block: Make del_gendisk() safer for disks without queuesJan Kara2017-03-081-6/+10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 165a5e22fafb "block: Move bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk()" added disk->queue dereference to del_gendisk(). Although del_gendisk() is not supposed to be called without disk->queue valid and blk_unregister_queue() warns in that case, this change will make it oops instead. Return to the old more robust behavior of just warning when del_gendisk() gets called for gendisk with disk->queue being NULL.

* block: Move bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk()Jan Kara2017-03-021-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 6cd18e711dd8 "block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered." moved bdi unregistration (at that time through bdi_destroy()) from blk_release_queue() to blk_cleanup_queue() because it needs to happen before blk_unregister_region() call in del_gendisk() for MD. SCSI though will free up the device number from sd_remove() called through a maze of callbacks from device_del() in __scsi_remove_device() before blk_cleanup_queue() and thus similar races as described in 6cd18e711dd8 can happen for SCSI as well as reported by Omar [1]. Moving bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk() works for MD and fixes the problem for SCSI since del_gendisk() gets called from sd_remove() before freeing the device number. This also makes device_add_disk() (calling bdi_register_owner()) more symmetric with del_gendisk().

* block: Unhash also block device inode for the whole deviceJan Kara2017-02-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Iteration over partitions in del_gendisk() omits part0. Add bdev_unhash_inode() call for the whole device. Otherwise if the device number gets reused, bdev inode will be still associated with the old (stale) bdi.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move bdev_unhash_inode() after invalidate_partition() as invalidate_partition() looks up bdev and it cannot find the right bdev inode after bdev_unhash_inode() is called. Thus invalidate_partition() would not invalidate page cache of the previously used bdev. Also use part_devt() when calling bdev_unhash_inode() instead of manually creating the device number.

* block: Unhash block device inodes on gendisk destructionJan Kara2017-02-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, block device inodes stay around after corresponding gendisk hash died until memory reclaim finds them and frees them. Since we will make block device inode pin the bdi, we want to free the block device inode as soon as the device goes away so that bdi does not stay around unnecessarily. Furthermore we need to avoid issues when new device with the same major,minor pair gets created since reusing the bdi structure would be rather difficult in this case. Unhashing block device inode on gendisk destruction nicely deals with these problems. Once last block device inode reference is dropped (which may be directly in del_gendisk()), the inode gets evicted. Furthermore if the major,minor pair gets reallocated, we are guaranteed to get new block device inode even if old block device inode is not yet evicted and thus we avoid issues with possible reuse of bdi.

* block: fix bdi vs gendisk lifetime mismatchDan Williams2016-08-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The name for a bdi of a gendisk is derived from the gendisk's devt. However, since the gendisk is destroyed before the bdi it leaves a window where a new gendisk could dynamically reuse the same devt while a bdi with the same name is still live. Arrange for the bdi to hold a reference against its "owner" disk device while it is registered. Otherwise we can hit sysfs duplicate name collisions like the following: WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 2078 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x64/0x80 sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/bdi/259:1' Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL580 Gen8, BIOS P79 05/06/2015 0000000000000286 0000000002c04ad5 ffff88006f24f970 ffffffff8134caec ffff88006f24f9c0 0000000000000000 ffff88006f24f9b0 ffffffff8108c351 0000001f0000000c ffff88105d236000 ffff88105d1031e0 ffff8800357427f8 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8134caec>] dump_stack+0x63/0x87 [<ffffffff8108c351>] __warn+0xd1/0xf0 [<ffffffff8108c3cf>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x5f/0x80 [<ffffffff812a0d34>] sysfs_warn_dup+0x64/0x80 [<ffffffff812a0e1e>] sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x7e/0x90 [<ffffffff8134faaa>] kobject_add_internal+0xaa/0x320 [<ffffffff81358d4e>] ? vsnprintf+0x34e/0x4d0 [<ffffffff8134ff55>] kobject_add+0x75/0xd0 [<ffffffff816e66b2>] ? mutex_lock+0x12/0x2f [<ffffffff8148b0a5>] device_add+0x125/0x610 [<ffffffff8148b788>] device_create_groups_vargs+0xd8/0x100 [<ffffffff8148b7cc>] device_create_vargs+0x1c/0x20 [<ffffffff811b775c>] bdi_register+0x8c/0x180 [<ffffffff811b7877>] bdi_register_dev+0x27/0x30 [<ffffffff813317f5>] add_disk+0x175/0x4a0 Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reported-by: Yi Zhang <yizhan@redhat.com> Tested-by: Yi Zhang <yizhan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Fixed up missing 0 return in bdi_register_owner().

* | block: fix del_gendisk() vs blkdev_ioctl crashDan Williams2016-01-091-1/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When tearing down a block device early in its lifetime, userspace may still be performing discovery actions like blkdev_ioctl() to re-read partitions. The nvdimm_revalidate_disk() implementation depends on disk->driverfs_dev to be valid at entry. However, it is set to NULL in del_gendisk() and fatally this is happening *before* the disk device is deleted from userspace view. There's no reason for del_gendisk() to clear ->driverfs_dev. That device is the parent of the disk. It is guaranteed to not be freed until the disk, as a child, drops its ->parent reference. We could also fix this issue locally in nvdimm_revalidate_disk() by using disk_to_dev(disk)->parent, but lets fix it globally since ->driverfs_dev follows the lifetime of the parent. Longer term we should probably just add a @parent parameter to add_disk(), and stop carrying this pointer in the gendisk.

* block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendiskMartin K. Petersen2015-10-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up until now the_integrity profile has been dynamically allocated and attached to struct gendisk after the disk has been made active. This causes problems because NVMe devices need to register the profile prior to the partition table being read due to a mandatory metadata buffer requirement. In addition, DM goes through hoops to deal with preallocating, but not initializing integrity profiles. Since the integrity profile is small (4 bytes + a pointer), Christoph suggested moving it to struct gendisk proper. This requires several changes: - Moving the blk_integrity definition to genhd.h. - Inlining blk_integrity in struct gendisk. - Removing the dynamic allocation code. - Adding helper functions which allow gendisk to set up and tear down the integrity sysfs dir when a disk is added/deleted. - Adding a blk_integrity_revalidate() callback for updating the stable pages bdi setting. - The calls that depend on whether a device has an integrity profile or not now key off of the bi->profile pointer. - Simplifying the integrity support routines in DM (Mike Snitzer).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup; unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h makes cyclic include dependency quite likely. This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files which need access to more backing-dev details now include backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block and cgroup. v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bdi_unregister() now contains very little functionality. It contains a "WARN_ON" if bdi->dev is NULL. This warning is of no real consequence as bdi->dev isn't needed by anything else in the function, and it triggers if blk_cleanup_queue() -> bdi_destroy() is called before bdi_unregister, which happens since Commit: 6cd18e711dd8 ("block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered.") So this isn't wanted. It also calls bdi_set_min_ratio(). This needs to be called after writes through the bdi have all been flushed, and before the bdi is destroyed. Calling it early is better than calling it late as it frees up a global resource. Calling it immediately after bdi_wb_shutdown() in bdi_destroy() perfectly fits these requirements. So bdi_unregister() can be discarded with the important content moved to bdi_destroy(), as can the writeback_bdi_unregister event which is already not used.

This is a race between disk_clear_events() and disk_flush_events(). ev->clearing will be altered by disk_flush_events() even though we are blocking event checking through disk_flush_events(). If this happens after ev->clearing was cleared for disk_clear_events(), this can cause the WARN_ON_ONCE() in that function to be triggered. This change also has disk_clear_events() not go through a workqueue. Since we have to wait for the work to complete, we should just call the function directly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In disk_clear_events, do not put work on system_nrt_freezable_wq. Instead, put it on system_nrt_wq. There is a race between probing a usb and suspending the device. Since probing a usb calls disk_clear_events, which puts work on a frozen workqueue, probing cannot finish after the workqueue is frozen. However, suspending cannot finish until the usb probe is finished, so we get a deadlock, causing the system to reboot. The way to reproduce this bug is to wake up from suspend with a usb storage device plugged in, or plugging in a usb storage device right before suspend. The window of time is on the order of time it takes to probe the usb device. As long as the workqueues are frozen before the call to add_disk within sd_probe_async finishes, there will be a deadlock (which calls blkdev_get, sd_open, check_disk_change, then disk_clear_events). This is not difficult to reproduce after figuring out the timings.

This grew into adding a generic interface for waiting/checking an even with a specific lock, allowing this to be pulled out of md and now loop and drbd is also using it. - A few fixes for xen back/front block driver from Roger Pau Monne. - Partition improvements from Stephen Warren, allowing partiion UUID to be used as an identifier." * 'for-3.8/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (609 commits) drbd: update Kconfig to match current dependencies drbd: Fix drbdsetup wait-connect, wait-sync etc... commands drbd: close race between drbd_set_role and drbd_connect drbd: respect no-md-barriers setting also when changed online via disk-options drbd: Remove obsolete check drbd: fixup after wait_even_lock_irq() addition to generic code loop: Limit the number of requests in the bio list wait: add wait_event_lock_irq() interface xen-blkfront: free allocated page xen-blkback: move free persistent grants code block: partition: msdos: provide UUIDs for partitions init: reduce PARTUUID min length to 1 from 36 block: store partition_meta_info.uuid as a string cciss: use check_signature() cciss: cleanup bitops usage drbd: use copy_highpage drbd: if the replication link breaks during handshake, keep retrying drbd: check return of kmalloc in receive_uuids drbd: Broadcast sync progress no more often than once per second drbd: don't try to clear bits once the disk has failed ...
| * block: store partition_meta_info.uuid as a stringStephen Warren2012-11-231-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will allow other types of UUID to be stored here, aside from true UUIDs. This also simplifies code that uses this field, since it's usually constructed from a, used as a, or compared to other, strings. Note: A simplistic approach here would be to set uuid_str[36]=0 whenever a /PARTNROFF option was found to be present. However, this modifies the input string, and causes subsequent calls to devt_from_partuuid() not to see the /PARTNROFF option, which causes different results. In order to avoid misleading future maintainers, this parameter is marked const.

A lot of activities this round including considerable API and behavior cleanups. * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as expected. * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added. These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface and behave like timer which is executed with process context. * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario the overhead isn't too high. All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished execution of any previous queueing on return. * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU hotplug handling significantly. * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU hotplug. There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them." Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts. Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more. * 'for-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: (46 commits) workqueue: remove spurious WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq()) from try_to_grab_pending() workqueue: use cwq_set_max_active() helper for workqueue_set_max_active() workqueue: introduce cwq_set_max_active() helper for thaw_workqueues() workqueue: remove @delayed from cwq_dec_nr_in_flight() workqueue: fix possible stall on try_to_grab_pending() of a delayed work item workqueue: use hotcpu_notifier() for workqueue_cpu_down_callback() workqueue: use __cpuinit instead of __devinit for cpu callbacks workqueue: rename manager_mutex to assoc_mutex workqueue: WORKER_REBIND is no longer necessary for idle rebinding workqueue: WORKER_REBIND is no longer necessary for busy rebinding workqueue: reimplement idle worker rebinding workqueue: deprecate __cancel_delayed_work() workqueue: reimplement cancel_delayed_work() using try_to_grab_pending() workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of __cancel + queue workqueue: use irqsafe timer for delayed_work workqueue: clean up delayed_work initializers and add missing one workqueue: make deferrable delayed_work initializer names consistent workqueue: cosmetic whitespace updates for macro definitions workqueue: deprecate system_nrt[_freezable]_wq workqueue: deprecate flush[_delayed]_work_sync() ...
| * workqueue: deprecate system_nrt[_freezable]_wqTejun Heo2012-08-201-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | system_nrt[_freezable]_wq are now spurious. Mark them deprecated and convert all users to system[_freezable]_wq. If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are non-reentrant, so there's no reason to use system_nrt[_freezable]_wq. Please use system[_freezable]_wq instead. This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

| * workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of cancel + queueTejun Heo2012-08-131-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert delayed_work users doing cancel_delayed_work() followed by queue_delayed_work() to mod_delayed_work(). Most conversions are straight-forward. Ones worth mentioning are, * drivers/edac/edac_mc.c: edac_mc_workq_setup() converted to always use mod_delayed_work() and cancel loop in edac_mc_reset_delay_period() is dropped. * drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c: No need to remember whether watchdog is active or not. @fan_watchdog_active and related code dropped. * drivers/power/charger-manager.c: Seemingly a lot of delayed_work_pending() abuse going on here. [delayed_]work_pending() are unsynchronized and racy when used like this. I converted one instance in fullbatt_handler(). Please conver the rest so that it invokes workqueue APIs for the intended target state rather than trying to game work item pending state transitions. e.g. if timer should be modified - call mod_delayed_work(), canceled - call cancel_delayed_work[_sync](). * drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.c: thermal_zone_device_set_polling() simplified. Note that round_jiffies() calls in this function are meaningless. round_jiffies() work on absolute jiffies not delta delay used by delayed_work. v2: Tomi pointed out that __cancel_delayed_work() users can't be safely converted to mod_delayed_work(). They could be calling it from irq context and if that happens while delayed_work_timer_fn() is running, it could deadlock. __cancel_delayed_work() users are dropped.
