* blkcg: use trylock on blkcg_pol_mutex in blkcg_reset_stats()Tejun Heo2014-05-051-1/+14

While this arrangement mostly worked for cgroup, this triggered the following lockdep warning. ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.15.0-rc3-next-20140430-sasha-00016-g4e281fa-dirty #429 Tainted: G W ------------------------------------------------------- trinity-c173/9024 is trying to acquire lock: (blkcg_pol_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: blkcg_reset_stats (include/linux/spinlock.h:328 block/blk-cgroup.c:455) but task is already holding lock: (s_active#89){++++.+}, at: kernfs_fop_write (fs/kernfs/file.c:283) which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #2 (s_active#89){++++.+}: lock_acquire (arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602) __kernfs_remove (arch/x86/include/asm/atomic.h:27 fs/kernfs/dir.c:352 fs/kernfs/dir.c:1024) kernfs_remove_by_name_ns (fs/kernfs/dir.c:1219) cgroup_addrm_files (include/linux/kernfs.h:427 kernel/cgroup.c:1074 kernel/cgroup.c:2899) cgroup_clear_dir (kernel/cgroup.c:1092 (discriminator 2)) rebind_subsystems (kernel/cgroup.c:1144) cgroup_setup_root (kernel/cgroup.c:1568) cgroup_mount (kernel/cgroup.c:1716) mount_fs (fs/super.c:1094) vfs_kern_mount (fs/namespace.c:899) do_mount (fs/namespace.c:2238 fs/namespace.c:2561) SyS_mount (fs/namespace.c:2758 fs/namespace.c:2729) tracesys (arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:746) -> #1 (cgroup_tree_mutex){+.+.+.}: lock_acquire (arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602) mutex_lock_nested (kernel/locking/mutex.c:486 kernel/locking/mutex.c:587) cgroup_add_cftypes (include/linux/list.h:76 kernel/cgroup.c:3040) blkcg_policy_register (block/blk-cgroup.c:1106) throtl_init (block/blk-throttle.c:1694) do_one_initcall (init/main.c:789) kernel_init_freeable (init/main.c:854 init/main.c:863 init/main.c:882 init/main.c:1003) kernel_init (init/main.c:935) ret_from_fork (arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:552) -> #0 (blkcg_pol_mutex){+.+.+.}: __lock_acquire (kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1840 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1945 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2131 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3182) lock_acquire (arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602) mutex_lock_nested (kernel/locking/mutex.c:486 kernel/locking/mutex.c:587) blkcg_reset_stats (include/linux/spinlock.h:328 block/blk-cgroup.c:455) cgroup_file_write (kernel/cgroup.c:2714) kernfs_fop_write (fs/kernfs/file.c:295) vfs_write (fs/read_write.c:532) SyS_write (fs/read_write.c:584 fs/read_write.c:576) tracesys (arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:746) other info that might help us debug this: Chain exists of: blkcg_pol_mutex --> cgroup_tree_mutex --> s_active#89 Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(s_active#89); lock(cgroup_tree_mutex); lock(s_active#89); lock(blkcg_pol_mutex); *** DEADLOCK *** 4 locks held by trinity-c173/9024: #0: (&f->f_pos_lock){+.+.+.}, at: __fdget_pos (fs/file.c:714) #1: (sb_writers#18){.+.+.+}, at: vfs_write (include/linux/fs.h:2255 fs/read_write.c:530) #2: (&of->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: kernfs_fop_write (fs/kernfs/file.c:283) #3: (s_active#89){++++.+}, at: kernfs_fop_write (fs/kernfs/file.c:283) stack backtrace: CPU: 3 PID: 9024 Comm: trinity-c173 Tainted: G W 3.15.0-rc3-next-20140430-sasha-00016-g4e281fa-dirty #429 ffffffff919687b0 ffff8805f6373bb8 ffffffff8e52cdbb 0000000000000002 ffffffff919d8400 ffff8805f6373c08 ffffffff8e51fb88 0000000000000004 ffff8805f6373c98 ffff8805f6373c08 ffff88061be70d98 ffff88061be70dd0 Call Trace: dump_stack (lib/dump_stack.c:52) print_circular_bug (kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1216) __lock_acquire (kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1840 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1945 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2131 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3182) lock_acquire (arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602) mutex_lock_nested (kernel/locking/mutex.c:486 kernel/locking/mutex.c:587) blkcg_reset_stats (include/linux/spinlock.h:328 block/blk-cgroup.c:455) cgroup_file_write (kernel/cgroup.c:2714) kernfs_fop_write (fs/kernfs/file.c:295) vfs_write (fs/read_write.c:532) SyS_write (fs/read_write.c:584 fs/read_write.c:576) This is a highly unlikely but valid circular dependency between "echo 1 > blkcg.reset_stats" and cfq module [un]loading. cgroup is going through further locking update which will remove this complication but for now let's use trylock on blkcg_pol_mutex and retry the file operation if the trylock fails.

* device_cgroup: check if exception removal is allowedAristeu Rozanski2014-05-051-3/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [PATCH v3 1/2] device_cgroup: check if exception removal is allowed When the device cgroup hierarchy was introduced in bd2953ebbb53 - devcg: propagate local changes down the hierarchy a specific case was overlooked. Consider the hierarchy bellow: A default policy: ALLOW, exceptions will deny access \ B default policy: ALLOW, exceptions will deny access There's no need to verify when an new exception is added to B because in this case exceptions will deny access to further devices, which is always fine. Hierarchy in device cgroup only makes sure B won't have more access than A. But when an exception is removed (by writing devices.allow), it isn't checked if the user is in fact removing an inherited exception from A, thus giving more access to B. Example: # echo 'a' >A/devices.allow # echo 'c 1:3 rw' >A/devices.deny # echo $$ >A/B/tasks # echo >/dev/null -bash: /dev/null: Operation not permitted # echo 'c 1:3 w' >A/B/devices.allow # echo >/dev/null # This shouldn't be allowed and this patch fixes it by making sure to never allow exceptions in this case to be removed if the exception is partially or fully present on the parent. v3: missing '*' in function description v2: improved log message and formatting fixes Cc: cgroups@vger.kernel.org Cc: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Aristeu Rozanski <arozansk@redhat.com> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

* device_cgroup: rework device access check and exception checkingAristeu Rozanski2014-04-211-40/+122
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whenever a device file is opened and checked against current device cgroup rules, it uses the same function (may_access()) as when a new exception rule is added by writing devices.{allow,deny}. And in both cases, the algorithm is the same, doesn't matter the behavior. First problem is having device access to be considered the same as rule checking. Consider the following structure: A (default behavior: allow, exceptions disallow access) \ B (default behavior: allow, exceptions disallow access) A new exception is added to B by writing devices.deny: c 12:34 rw When checking if that exception is allowed in may_access(): if (dev_cgroup->behavior == DEVCG_DEFAULT_ALLOW) { if (behavior == DEVCG_DEFAULT_ALLOW) { /* the exception will deny access to certain devices */ return true; Which is ok, since B is not getting more privileges than A, it doesn't matter and the rule is accepted Now, consider it's a device file open check and the process belongs to cgroup B. The access will be generated as: behavior: allow exception: c 12:34 rw The very same chunk of code will allow it, even if there's an explicit exception telling to do otherwise. A simple test case: # mkdir new_group # cd new_group # echo $$ >tasks # echo "c 1:3 w" >devices.deny # echo >/dev/null # echo $? 0 This is a serious bug and was introduced on c39a2a3018f8 devcg: prepare may_access() for hierarchy support To solve this problem, the device file open function was split from the new exception check. Second problem is how exceptions are processed by may_access(). The first part of the said function tries to match fully with an existing exception: list_for_each_entry_rcu(ex, &dev_cgroup->exceptions, list) { if ((refex->type & DEV_BLOCK) && !(ex->type & DEV_BLOCK)) continue; if ((refex->type & DEV_CHAR) && !(ex->type & DEV_CHAR)) continue; if (ex->major != ~0 && ex->major != refex->major) continue; if (ex->minor != ~0 && ex->minor != refex->minor) continue; if (refex->access & (~ex->access)) continue; match = true; break; } That means the new exception should be contained into an existing one to be considered a match: New exception Existing match? notes b 12:34 rwm b 12:34 rwm yes b 12:34 r b *:34 rw yes b 12:34 rw b 12:34 w no extra "r" b *:34 rw b 12:34 rw no too broad "*" b *:34 rw b *:34 rwm yes Which is fine in some cases. Consider: A (default behavior: deny, exceptions allow access) \ B (default behavior: deny, exceptions allow access) In this case the full match makes sense, the new exception cannot add more access than the parent allows But this doesn't always work, consider: A (default behavior: allow, exceptions disallow access) \ B (default behavior: deny, exceptions allow access) In this case, a new exception in B shouldn't match any of the exceptions in A, after all you can't allow something that was forbidden by A. But consider this scenario: New exception Existing in A match? outcome b 12:34 rw b 12:34 r no exception is accepted Because the new exception has "w" as extra, it doesn't match, so it'll be added to B's exception list. The same problem can happen during a file access check. Consider a cgroup with allow as default behavior: Access Exception match? b 12:34 rw b 12:34 r no In this case, the access didn't match any of the exceptions in the cgroup, which is required since exceptions will disallow access. To solve this problem, two new functions were created to match an exception either fully or partially. In the example above, a partial check will be performed and it'll produce a match since at least "b 12:34 r" from "b 12:34 rw" access matches.

* cgroup: fix the retry path of cgroup_mount()Li Zefan2014-04-171-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we hit the retry path, we'll call parse_cgroupfs_options() again, but the string we pass to it has been modified by the previous call to this function. This bug can be observed by: # mount -t cgroup -o name=foo,cpuset xxx /mnt && umount /mnt && \ mount -t cgroup -o name=foo,cpuset xxx /mnt mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on xxx, missing codepage or helper program, or other error ... The second mount passed "name=foo,cpuset" to the parser, and then it hit the retry path and call the parser again, but this time the string passed to the parser is "name=foo". To fix this, we avoid calling parse_cgroupfs_options() again in this case. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'struct page' has two list_head fields: 'lru' and 'list'. Conveniently, they are unioned together. This means that code can use them interchangably, which gets horribly confusing like with this nugget from slab.c: > list_del(&page->lru); > if (page->active == cachep->num) > list_add(&page->list, &n->slabs_full); This patch makes the slab and slub code use page->lru universally instead of mixing ->list and ->lru. So, the new rule is: page->lru is what the you use if you want to keep your page on a list. Don't like the fact that it's not called ->list? Too bad.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 'slab: restrict the number of objects in a slab' uses __builtin_constant_p() on #if macro. It is wrong usage of builtin function, but it is compiled on x86 without any problem, so I can't find it before 0 day build system find it. This commit fixes the situation by using KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE, instead of KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW. KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW is parsed to ilog2() on some architecture and this ilog2() uses __builtin_constant_p() and results in the problem. This problem would disappear by using KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE, since it is just constant.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now, the size of the freelist for the slab management diminish, so that the on-slab management structure can waste large space if the object of the slab is large. Consider a 128 byte sized slab. If on-slab is used, 31 objects can be in the slab. The size of the freelist for this case would be 31 bytes so that 97 bytes, that is, more than 75% of object size, are wasted. In a 64 byte sized slab case, no space is wasted if we use on-slab. So set off-slab determining constraint to 128 bytes.

| * slab: introduce byte sized index for the freelist of a slabJoonsoo Kim2014-02-081-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the freelist of a slab consist of unsigned int sized indexes. Since most of slabs have less number of objects than 256, large sized indexes is needless. For example, consider the minimum kmalloc slab. It's object size is 32 byte and it would consist of one page, so 256 indexes through byte sized index are enough to contain all possible indexes. There can be some slabs whose object size is 8 byte. We cannot handle this case with byte sized index, so we need to restrict minimum object size. Since these slabs are not major, wasted memory from these slabs would be negligible. Some architectures' page size isn't 4096 bytes and rather larger than 4096 bytes (One example is 64KB page size on PPC or IA64) so that byte sized index doesn't fit to them. In this case, we will use two bytes sized index. Below is some number for this patch. * Before * kmalloc-512 525 640 512 8 1 : tunables 54 27 0 : slabdata 80 80 0 kmalloc-256 210 210 256 15 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 14 14 0 kmalloc-192 1016 1040 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 52 52 0 kmalloc-96 560 620 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 20 20 0 kmalloc-64 2148 2280 64 60 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 38 38 0 kmalloc-128 647 682 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 22 22 0 kmalloc-32 11360 11413 32 113 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 101 101 0 kmem_cache 197 200 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 10 10 0 * After * kmalloc-512 521 648 512 8 1 : tunables 54 27 0 : slabdata 81 81 0 kmalloc-256 208 208 256 16 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 13 13 0 kmalloc-192 1029 1029 192 21 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 49 49 0 kmalloc-96 529 589 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 19 19 0 kmalloc-64 2142 2142 64 63 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 34 34 0 kmalloc-128 660 682 128 31 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 22 22 0 kmalloc-32 11716 11780 32 124 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 95 95 0 kmem_cache 197 210 192 21 1 : tunables 120 60 0 : slabdata 10 10 0 kmem_caches consisting of objects less than or equal to 256 byte have one or more objects than before.

| * slab: restrict the number of objects in a slabJoonsoo Kim2014-02-082-0/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To prepare to implement byte sized index for managing the freelist of a slab, we should restrict the number of objects in a slab to be less or equal to 256, since byte only represent 256 different values. Setting the size of object to value equal or more than newly introduced SLAB_OBJ_MIN_SIZE ensures that the number of objects in a slab is less or equal to 256 for a slab with 1 page. If page size is rather larger than 4096, above assumption would be wrong. In this case, we would fall back on 2 bytes sized index. If minimum size of kmalloc is less than 16, we use it as minimum object size and give up this optimization.

* | sym53c8xx_2: Set DID_REQUEUE return code when aborting squeueMikulas Patocka2014-04-121-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes I/O errors with the sym53c8xx_2 driver when the disk returns QUEUE FULL status. When the controller encounters an error (including QUEUE FULL or BUSY status), it aborts all not yet submitted requests in the function sym_dequeue_from_squeue. This function aborts them with DID_SOFT_ERROR. If the disk has full tag queue, the request that caused the overflow is aborted with QUEUE FULL status (and the scsi midlayer properly retries it until it is accepted by the disk), but the sym53c8xx_2 driver aborts the following requests with DID_SOFT_ERROR --- for them, the midlayer does just a few retries and then signals the error up to sd. The result is that disk returning QUEUE FULL causes request failures. The error was reproduced on 53c895 with COMPAQ BD03685A24 disk (rebranded ST336607LC) with command queue 48 or 64 tags. The disk has 64 tags, but under some access patterns it return QUEUE FULL when there are less than 64 pending tags. The SCSI specification allows returning QUEUE FULL anytime and it is up to the host to retry.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8f619b5429d9 ("powerpc/ppc64: Do not turn AIL (reloc-on interrupts) too early") added code to set the AIL bit in the LPCR without checking whether the kernel is running in hypervisor mode. The result is that when the kernel is running as a guest (i.e., under PowerKVM or PowerVM), the processor takes a privileged instruction interrupt at that point, causing a panic. The visible result is that the kernel hangs after printing "returning from prom_init". This fixes it by checking for hypervisor mode being available before setting LPCR. If we are not in hypervisor mode, we enable relocation-on interrupts later in pSeries_setup_arch using the H_SET_MODE hcall.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similarly to commit 43279500deca ("packet: respect devices with LLTX flag in direct xmit"), we can basically apply the very same to pktgen. This will help testing against LLTX devices such as dummy driver (or others), which only have a single netdevice txq and would otherwise require locking their txq from pktgen side while e.g. in dummy case, we would not need any locking. Fix this by making use of HARD_TX_{UN,}LOCK API, so that NETIF_F_LLTX will be respected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the device is unplugged, the driver would try to disable the device. Add checking the flag of RTL8152_UNPLUG to skip setting the device when it is unplugged. This could shorten the time of unloading the driver.

| * | | net: sun4i-emac: add promiscuous supportMarc Zyngier2014-04-121-9/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sun4i-emac driver is rather primitive, and doesn't support promiscuous mode. This makes usage such as bridging impossible, which is a shame on virtualization capable HW such as the Allwinner A20. The fix is fairly simple: move the RX setup code to the ndo_set_rx_mode vector, and add the required HW configuration when IFF_PROMISC is passed by the core code. This has been tested on a generic A20 box running a few virtual machines hanging off a bridge with the EMAC chip as the link to the outside world.
