sg: Fix double-free when drives detach during SG_IO
In sg_common_write(), we free the block request and return -ENODEV if
the device is detached in the middle of the SG_IO ioctl().
Unfortunately, sg_finish_rem_req() also tries to free srp->rq, so we
end up freeing rq->cmd in the already free rq object, and then free
the object itself out from under the current user.
This ends up corrupting random memory via the list_head on the rq
object. The most common crash trace I saw is this:
The solution is straightforward: just set srp->rq to NULL in the
failure branch so that sg_finish_rem_req() doesn't attempt to re-free
it.
Additionally, since sg_rq_end_io() will never be called on the object
when this happens, we need to free memory backing ->cmd if it isn't
embedded in the object itself.
KASAN was extremely helpful in finding the root cause of this bug.

pm80xx: avoid a panic if MSI(X) interrupts are disabled
If MSI(X) interrupts are disabled via the kernel command line
(pci=nomsi), the pm8001 driver will kernel panic because it does not
detect that MSI interrupts are disabled and will soldier on and attempt to
configure MSI interrupts anyways. This leads to a kernel panic, most
likely because a required data structure is not available down the
line. Using the pci_msi_enabled() function in order to detect if MSI
interrupts are enabled before configuring them resolves this issue and
avoids a kernel panic when the module is loaded. Additionally, the
irq_vector structure must be initialized when legacy interrupts are
being used otherwise legacy interrupts will simply not function and
result in another panic.

SCSI: Increase REPORT_LUNS timeout
This patch fixes an issue seen with an IBM 2145 (SVC) where, following an error
injection test which results in paths going offline, when they came
back online, the path would timeout the REPORT_LUNS issued during the
scan. This timeout situation continued until retries were expired, resulting in
falling back to a sequential LUN scan. Then, since the target responds
with PQ=1, PDT=0 for all possible LUNs, due to the way the sequential
LUN scan code works, we end up adding 512 LUNs for each target, when there
is really only a small handful of LUNs that are actually present.
This patch increases the timeout used on the REPORT_LUNS to 30 seconds.
This patch solves the issue of 512 non existent LUNs showing up after

to the FW in case of any sequence mismatch.

map to get device handle for fast path I/O and this not have sequence

error handling, if JBOD map is failed/not supported by firmware, driver
will continue using legacy behavior.
Now there will be three IO paths for JBOD (syspd):
- JBOD map with sequence number (Fast Path)
- RAID map without sequence number (Fast Path)
- FW path via h/w exception queue deliberately setup devhandle

- struct MR_PD_CFG_SEQ- This structure represent map of single physical

- struct MR_PD_CFG_SEQ_NUM_SYNC- This structure represent whole JBOD

of syspD with 0 index).
- JBOD sequence map size is: sizeof(struct MR_PD_CFG_SEQ_NUM_SYNC)

SCSI: fix bug in scsi_dev_info_list matching
The "compatible" matching algorithm used for looking up old-style
blacklist entries in a scsi_dev_info_list is buggy. The core of the
algorithm looks like this:
if (memcmp(devinfo->vendor, vendor,
min(max, strlen(devinfo->vendor))))
/* not a match */
where max is the length of the device's vendor string after leading
spaces have been removed but trailing spaces have not. Because of the
min() computation, either entry could be a proper substring of the
other and the code would still think that they match.
In the case originally reported, the device's vendor and product
strings were "Inateck " and " ". These matched against
the following entry in the global device list:
{"", "Scanner", "1.80", BLIST_NOLUN}
because "" is a substring of "Inateck " and "" (the result of removing
leading spaces from the device's product string) is a substring of
"Scanner". The mistaken match prevented the system from scanning and
finding the device's second Logical Unit.
This patch fixes the problem by making two changes. First, the code
for leading-space removal is hoisted out of the loop. (This means it
will sometimes run unnecessarily, but since a large percentage of all
lookups involve the "compatible" entries in global device list, this
should be an overall improvement.) Second and more importantly, the
patch removes trailing spaces and adds a check to verify that the two
resulting strings are exactly the same length. This prevents matches
where one entry is a proper substring of the other.

lpfc: in sli3 use configured sg_seg_cnt for sg_tablesize
Currently the module parameter lpfc_sg_seg_count does not have effect
for sli3 devices.
In lpfc_sli_driver_resource_setup(), which is used for sli3, the code
writes the configured sg_seg_cnt into lpfc_template.sg_tablesize.
But lpfc_template is the template used for sli4 only. Thus the value should
correctly be written to lpfc_template_s3->sg_tablesize.
This patch is for kernel 4.1-rc5, but is tested with lpfc 10.2.405.26 only.

scsi_dh: Use the correct module name when loading device handler
This fixes a bug in recent kernels which results in failure to boot
on systems that have multipath SCSI disks. I observed this failure
on a POWER8 server where all the disks are multipath SCSI disks.
The symptoms are several messages like this on the console:
and the system does not find its disks, and therefore fails to boot.
Bisection revealed that the bug was introduced in commit 566079c849cf,
"dm-mpath, scsi_dh: request scsi_dh modules in scsi_dh, not dm-mpath".
The specific reason for the failure is that where we previously loaded
the "scsi_dh_alua" module, we are now trying to load the "alua" module,
which doesn't exist.
To fix this, we change the request_module call in scsi_dh_lookup()
to prepend "scsi_dh_" to the name, just like the old code in
drivers/md/dm-mpath.c:parse_hw_handler() used to do.

blk: rq_data_dir() should not return a boolean
rq_data_dir() returns either READ or WRITE (0 == READ, 1 == WRITE), not
a boolean value.
Now, admittedly the "!= 0" doesn't really change the value (0 stays as
zero, 1 stays as one), but it's not only redundant, it confuses gcc, and
causes gcc to warn about the construct
switch (rq_data_dir(req)) {
case READ:
...
case WRITE:
...
that we have in a few drivers.
Now, the gcc warning is silly and stupid (it seems to warn not about the
switch value having a different type from the case statements, but about
_any_ boolean switch value), but in this case the code itself is silly
and stupid too, so let's just change it, and get rid of warnings like
this:
drivers/block/hd.c: In function ‘hd_request’:
drivers/block/hd.c:630:11: warning: switch condition has boolean value [-Wswitch-bool]
switch (rq_data_dir(req)) {
The odd '!= 0' came in when "cmd_flags" got turned into a "u64" in
commit 5953316dbf90 ("block: make rq->cmd_flags be 64-bit") and is
presumably because the old code (that just did a logical 'and' with 1)
would then end up making the type of rq_data_dir() be u64 too.
But if we want to retain the old regular integer type, let's just cast
the result to 'int' rather than use that rather odd '!= 0'.
Fix up the writeback plugging introduced in commit d353d7587d02
("writeback: plug writeback at a high level") that then caused problems

writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and writeback_inodes_wb()
Revert "writeback: plug writeback at a high level"
writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and writeback_inodes_wb()
We had to revert the pluggin in writeback_sb_inodes() because the
wb->list_lock is held, but we could easily plug at a higher level before
taking that lock, and unplug after releasing it. This does that.
Chris will run performance numbers, just to verify that this approach is
comparable to the alternative (we could just drop and re-take the lock
around the blk_finish_plug() rather than these two commits.
I'd have preferred waiting for actual performance numbers before picking
one approach over the other, but I don't want to release rc1 with the
known "sleeping function called from invalid context" issue, so I'll
pick this cleanup version for now. But if the numbers show that we
really want to plug just at the writeback_sb_inodes() level, and we
should just play ugly games with the spinlock, we'll switch to that.

Update the membarrier syscall self-test to match the membarrier
interface. Extend coverage of the interface. Consider ENOSYS as a
"SKIP" test, since it is a valid configuration, but does not allow
testing the system call.
Here is an implementation of a new system call, sys_membarrier(), which
executes a memory barrier on all threads running on the system. It is
implemented by calling synchronize_sched(). It can be used to
distribute the cost of user-space memory barriers asymmetrically by
transforming pairs of memory barriers into pairs consisting of
sys_membarrier() and a compiler barrier. For synchronization primitives
that distinguish between read-side and write-side (e.g. userspace RCU
[1], rwlocks), the read-side can be accelerated significantly by moving
the bulk of the memory barrier overhead to the write-side.
The existing applications of which I am aware that would be improved by
this system call are as follows:
* Through Userspace RCU library (http://urcu.so)
- DNS server (Knot DNS) https://www.knot-dns.cz/
- Network sniffer (http://netsniff-ng.org/)
- Distributed object storage (https://sheepdog.github.io/sheepdog/)
- User-space tracing (http://lttng.org)
- Network storage system (https://www.gluster.org/)
- Virtual routers (https://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/DPDK_RCU_0MQ.pdf)
- Financial software (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/23/189)
Those projects use RCU in userspace to increase read-side speed and
scalability compared to locking. Especially in the case of RCU used by
libraries, sys_membarrier can speed up the read-side by moving the bulk of
the memory barrier cost to synchronize_rcu().
* Direct users of sys_membarrier
- core dotnet garbage collector (https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/198)
Microsoft core dotnet GC developers are planning to use the mprotect()
side-effect of issuing memory barriers through IPIs as a way to implement
Windows FlushProcessWriteBuffers() on Linux. They are referring to
sys_membarrier in their github thread, specifically stating that
sys_membarrier() is what they are looking for.
To explain the benefit of this scheme, let's introduce two example threads:
Thread A (non-frequent, e.g. executing liburcu synchronize_rcu())
Thread B (frequent, e.g. executing liburcu
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock())
In a scheme where all smp_mb() in thread A are ordering memory accesses
with respect to smp_mb() present in Thread B, we can change each
smp_mb() within Thread A into calls to sys_membarrier() and each
smp_mb() within Thread B into compiler barriers "barrier()".
Before the change, we had, for each smp_mb() pairs:
Thread A Thread B
previous mem accesses previous mem accesses
smp_mb() smp_mb()
following mem accesses following mem accesses
After the change, these pairs become:
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier() barrier()
follow mem accesses follow mem accesses
As we can see, there are two possible scenarios: either Thread B memory
accesses do not happen concurrently with Thread A accesses (1), or they
do (2).
1) Non-concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses:
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier()
follow mem accesses
prev mem accesses
barrier()
follow mem accesses
In this case, thread B accesses will be weakly ordered. This is OK,
because at that point, thread A is not particularly interested in
ordering them with respect to its own accesses.
2) Concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier() barrier()
follow mem accesses follow mem accesses
In this case, thread B accesses, which are ensured to be in program
order thanks to the compiler barrier, will be "upgraded" to full
smp_mb() by synchronize_sched().
* Benchmarks
On Intel Xeon E5405 (8 cores)
(one thread is calling sys_membarrier, the other 7 threads are busy
looping)
1000 non-expedited sys_membarrier calls in 33s =3D 33 milliseconds/call.
* User-space user of this system call: Userspace RCU library
Both the signal-based and the sys_membarrier userspace RCU schemes
permit us to remove the memory barrier from the userspace RCU
rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() primitives, thus significantly
accelerating them. These memory barriers are replaced by compiler
barriers on the read-side, and all matching memory barriers on the
write-side are turned into an invocation of a memory barrier on all
active threads in the process. By letting the kernel perform this
synchronization rather than dumbly sending a signal to every process
threads (as we currently do), we diminish the number of unnecessary wake
ups and only issue the memory barriers on active threads. Non-running
threads do not need to execute such barrier anyway, because these are
implied by the scheduler context switches.
The dynamic sys_membarrier availability check adds some overhead to
the read-side compared to the signal-based scheme, but besides that,
sys_membarrier slightly outperforms the signal-based scheme. However,
this non-expedited sys_membarrier implementation has a much slower grace
period than signal and memory barrier schemes.
Besides diminishing the number of wake-ups, one major advantage of the
membarrier system call over the signal-based scheme is that it does not
need to reserve a signal. This plays much more nicely with libraries,
and with processes injected into for tracing purposes, for which we
cannot expect that signals will be unused by the application.
An expedited version of this system call can be added later on to speed
up the grace period. Its implementation will likely depend on reading
the cpu_curr()->mm without holding each CPU's rq lock.
This patch adds the system call to x86 and to asm-generic.

SYNOPSIS
#include <linux/membarrier.h>
int membarrier(int cmd, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The cmd argument is one of the following:
MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY
Query the set of supported commands. It returns a bitmask of
supported commands.
MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED
Execute a memory barrier on all threads running on the system.
Upon return from system call, the caller thread is ensured that
all running threads have passed through a state where all memory
accesses to user-space addresses match program order between
entry to and return from the system call (non-running threads
are de facto in such a state). This covers threads from all pro=E2=80=90
cesses running on the system. This command returns 0.
The flags argument needs to be 0. For future extensions.
All memory accesses performed in program order from each targeted
thread is guaranteed to be ordered with respect to sys_membarrier(). If
we use the semantic "barrier()" to represent a compiler barrier forcing
memory accesses to be performed in program order across the barrier,
and smp_mb() to represent explicit memory barriers forcing full memory
ordering across the barrier, we have the following ordering table for
each pair of barrier(), sys_membarrier() and smp_mb():
The pair ordering is detailed as (O: ordered, X: not ordered):
barrier() smp_mb() sys_membarrier()
barrier() X X O
smp_mb() X O O
sys_membarrier() O O O
RETURN VALUE
On success, these system calls return zero. On error, -1 is returned,
and errno is set appropriately. For a given command, with flags
argument set to 0, this system call is guaranteed to always return the
same value until reboot.
ERRORS
ENOSYS System call is not implemented.
EINVAL Invalid arguments.

MODSIGN: fix a compilation warning in extract-cert
Fix the following warning when compiling extract-cert:
scripts/extract-cert.c: In function `write_cert':
scripts/extract-cert.c:89:2: warning: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Wformat-security]
ERR(!i2d_X509_bio(wb, x509), cert_dst);

whereby the ERR() macro is taking cert_dst as the format string. "%s"
should be used as the format string as the path could contain special
characters.

Doing the block layer plug/unplug inside writeback_sb_inodes() is
broken, because that function is actually called with a spinlock held:
wb->list_lock, as pointed out by Chris Mason.
Chris suggested just dropping and re-taking the spinlock around the
blk_finish_plug() call (the plgging itself can happen under the
spinlock), and that would technically work, but is just disgusting.
We do something fairly similar - but not quite as disgusting because we
at least have a better reason for it - in writeback_single_inode(), so
it's not like the caller can depend on the lock being held over the
call, but in this case there just isn't any good reason for that
"release and re-take the lock" pattern.
[ In general, we should really strive to avoid the "release and retake"
pattern for locks, because in the general case it can easily cause
subtle bugs when the caller caches any state around the call that
might be invalidated by dropping the lock even just temporarily. ]
But in this case, the plugging should be easy to just move up to the
callers before the spinlock is taken, which should even improve the
effectiveness of the plug. So there is really no good reason to play
games with locking here.
I'll send off a test-patch so that Dave Chinner can verify that that
plug movement works. In the meantime this just reverts the problematic
commit and adds a comment to the function so that we hopefully don't
make this mistake again.

writeback_sb_inodes().
That one only hits on btrfs raid5/6 or MD raid10, and if I wasn't
changing a bunch of things in my test setup at once it would have been
really clear. Fix for writeback_sb_inodes() on the way as well"

build errors) was actually reversed, but no-one noticed until the new set of

target: Attach EXTENDED_COPY local I/O descriptors to xcopy_pt_sess
This patch is a >= v4.1 regression bug-fix where control CDB
emulation logic in commit 38b57f82 now expects a se_cmd->se_sess
pointer to exist when determining T10-PI support is to be exposed
for initiator host ports.
To address this bug, go ahead and add locally generated se_cmd
descriptors for copy-offload block-copy to it's own stand-alone
se_session nexus, while the parent EXTENDED_COPY se_cmd descriptor
remains associated with it's originating se_cmd->se_sess nexus.
Note a valid se_cmd->se_sess is also required for future support
of WRITE_INSERT and READ_STRIP software emulation when submitting
backend I/O to se_device that exposes T10-PI suport.
