cxlflash: Fix to avoid bypassing context cleanup
Contexts may be skipped over for cleanup in situations where contention
for the adapter's table-list mutex is experienced in the presence of a
signal during the execution of the release handler.
This can lead to two known issues:
- A hang condition on remove as that path tries to wait for users to
cleanup - something that will never complete should this scenario play
out as the user has already cleaned up from their perspective.
- An Oops in the unmap_mapping_range() call that is made as part of
the user waiting mechanism that is invoked on remove when contexts
are found to still exist.
The root cause of this issue can be found in get_context() and how the
table-list mutex is acquired. As this code path is shared by several
different access points within the driver, a decision was made during
the development cycle to acquire this mutex in this location using the
interruptible version of the mutex locking service. In almost all of
the use-cases and environmental scenarios this holds up, even when the
mutex is contended. However, for critical system threads (such as the
release handler), failing to acquire the mutex and bailing with the
intention of the user being able to try again later is unacceptable.
In such a scenario, the context _must_ be derived as it is on an
irreversible path to being freed. Without being able to derive the
context, the code mistakenly assumes that it has already been freed
and proceeds to free up the underlying CXL context resources. From
this point on, any usage of [the now stale] CXL context resources
will result in undefined behavior. This is root cause of the Oops
mentioned as the second known issue as the mapping passed to the
unmap_mapping_range() service is owned by the CXL context.
To fix this problem, acquisition of the table-list mutex within
get_context() is simply changed to use the uninterruptible version
of the mutex locking service. This is safe as the timing windows for
holding this mutex are short and also protected against blocking.

cxlflash: Fix to avoid corrupting port selection mask
The port selection mask of a LUN can be corrupted when the manage LUN
ioctl (DK_CXLFLASH_MANAGE_LUN) is issued more than once for any device.
This mask indicates to the AFU which port[s] can be used for a data
transfer to/from a particular LUN. The mask is critical to ensuring the
correct behavior when using the virtual LUN function of this adapter.
When the mask is configured for both ports, an I/O may be sent to either
port as the AFU assumes that each port has access to the same physical
device (specified by LUN ID in the port LUN table).
In a situation where the mask becomes incorrectly configured to reflect
access to both ports when in fact there is only access through a single
port, an I/O can be targeted to the wrong physical device. This can lead
to data corruption among other ill effects (e.g. security leaks).
The cause for this corruption is the assumption that the ioctl will only
be called a second time for a LUN when it is being configured for access
via a second port. A boolean 'newly_created' variable is used to
differentiate between a LUN that was created (and subsequently configured
for single port access) and one that is destined for access across both
ports. While initially set to 'true', this sticky boolean is toggled to
the 'false' state during a lookup on any next ioctl performed on a device
with a matching WWN/WWID. The code fails to realize that the match could
in fact be the same device calling in again. From here, an assumption is
made that any LUN with 'newly_created' set to 'false' is configured for
access over both ports and the port selection mask is set to reflect this.
Any future attempts to use this LUN for hosting a virtual LUN will result
in the port LUN table being incorrectly programmed.
As a remedy, the 'newly_created' concept was removed entirely and replaced
with code that always constructs the port selection mask based upon the
SCSI channel of the LUN being accessed. The bits remain sticky, therefore
allowing for a device to be accessed over both ports when that is in fact
the correct physical configuration.
Also included in this commit are a few minor related changes to enhance
the fix and provide better debug information for port selection mask and
port LUN table bugs in the future. These include renaming refresh_local()
to lookup_local(), tracing the WWN/WWID as a big-endian entity, and
tracing the port selection mask, SCSI channel, and LUN ID each time the
port LUN table is programmed.

gates at the bottom of the function and the appropriate goto is
added to each error path. As a mini side fix while refactoring
in this routine, the else statement following the AFU version
evaluation is eliminated as it is not needed.

cxlflash: Fix to avoid potential deadlock on EEH
Ioctl threads that use scsi_execute() can run for an excessive amount
of time due to the fact that they have lengthy timeouts and retry logic
built in. Under normal operation this is not an issue. However, once EEH
enters the picture, a long execution time coupled with the possibility
that a timeout can trigger entry to the driver via registered reset
callbacks becomes a liability.
In particular, a deadlock can occur when an EEH event is encountered
while in running in scsi_execute(). As part of the recovery, the EEH
handler drains all currently running ioctls, waiting until they have
completed before proceeding with a reset. As the scsi_execute()'s are
situated on the ioctl path, the EEH handler will wait until they (and
the remainder of the ioctl handler they're associated with) have
completed. Normally this would not be much of an issue aside from the
longer recovery period. Unfortunately, the scsi_execute() triggers a
reset when it times out. The reset handler will see that the device is
already being reset and wait until that reset completed. This creates
a condition where the EEH handler becomes stuck, infinitely waiting for
the ioctl thread to complete.
To avoid this behavior, temporarily unmark the scsi_execute() threads
as an ioctl thread by releasing the ioctl read semaphore. This allows
the EEH handler to proceed with a recovery while the thread is still
running. Once the scsi_execute() returns, the ioctl read semaphore is
reacquired and the adapter state is rechecked in case it changed while
inside of scsi_execute(). The state check will wait if the adapter is
still being recovered or returns a failure if the recovery failed. In
the event that the adapter reset failed, the failure is simply returned
as the ioctl would be unable to continue.

descriptor lacks the correct read permission bit (FMODE_CAN_READ) and
thus the read system call bails before calling the valid read fop.
Background:
The fops is stored in the adapter structure to provide the ability to
lookup the adapter structure from within the fop handler. CXL services
use the file's private_data and at present, the CXL context does not
have a private section. In an effort to limit areas of the cxlflash
driver with code specific the superpipe function, a design choice was
made to keep the details of the fops situated away from the legacy
portions of the driver. This drove the behavior that the adapter fops
is set at the beginning of the disk attach ioctl handler when there
are no users present.
The corruption that this fix remedies is due to the fact that the fops
is initially defaulted to values found within a static structure. When
the fops is handed down to the CXL services later in the attach path,
certain services are patched. The fops structure remains correct until
the user count drops to 0 and the fops is reset, triggering the process
to repeat again. The user counts are tightly coupled with the creation
and deletion of the user context. If multiple users perform a disk
attach at the same time, when the user count is currently 0, some users
can be in the middle of obtaining a file descriptor and have not yet
reached the context creation code that [in addition to creating the
context] increments the user count. Subsequent users coming in to
perform the attach see that the user count is still 0, and reinitialize
the fops, temporarily removing the patched fops. The users that are in
the middle obtaining their file descriptor may then receive an invalid
descriptor.
The fix simply removes the user count altogether and moves the fops
initialization to probe time such that it is only performed one time
for the life of the adapter. In the future, if the CXL services adopt
a private member for their context, that could be used to store the
adapter structure reference and cxlflash could revert to a model that
does not require an embedded fops.

cxlflash: Fix to prevent EEH recovery failure
The process_sense() routine can perform a read capacity which
can take some time to complete. If an EEH occurs while waiting
on the read capacity, the EEH handler will wait to obtain the
context's mutex in order to put the context in an error state.
The EEH handler will sit and wait until the context is free,
but this wait can potentially last forever (deadlock) if the
scsi_execute() that performs the read capacity experiences a
timeout and calls into the reset callback. When that occurs,
the reset callback sees that the device is already being reset
and waits for the reset to complete. This leaves two threads
waiting on the other.
To address this issue, make the context unavailable to new,
non-system owned threads and release the context while calling
into process_sense(). After returning from process_sense() the
context mutex is reacquired and the context is made available
again. The context can be safely moved to the error state if
needed during the unavailable window as no other threads will
hold its reference.

cxlflash: Fix to avoid invalid port_sel value
If two concurrent MANAGE_LUN ioctls are issued with the same
WWID parameter, it would result in an incorrect value of port_sel.
This is because port_sel is modified without any locks being
held. If the first caller stalls after the return from
find_and_create_lun(), the value of port_sel will be set
incorrectly to indicate a single port, though in this case
it should have been set to both ports.
To fix, use the global mutex to serialize the lookup of the
WWID and the subsequent modification of port_sel.

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.

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:
[ 3.018700] device-mapper: table: 253:0: multipath: error attaching hardware handler
[ 3.018828] device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
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'.

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.

thermal: fix intel PCH thermal driver mismerge
I didn't notice this when merging the thermal code from Zhang, but his
merge (commit
5a924a07f882: "Merge branches 'thermal-core' and
'thermal-intel' of .git into next") of the thermal-core and
thermal-intel branches was wrong.
In thermal-core, commit
17e8351a7739 ("thermal: consistently use int for
temperatures") converted the thermal layer to use "int" for
temperatures.
But in parallel, in the thermal-intel branch commit
d0a12625d2ff
("thermal: Add Intel PCH thermal driver") added support for the intel
PCH thermal sensor using the old interfaces that used "unsigned long"
pointers.
This resulted in warnings like this:

.get_temp = pch_thermal_get_temp,

sys_membarrier(): system-wide memory barrier (generic, x86)
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.
Results in liburcu:
Operations in 10s, 6 readers, 2 writers:
memory barriers in reader:
1701557485 reads,
2202847 writes
signal-based scheme:
9830061167 reads, 6700 writes
sys_membarrier:
9952759104 reads, 425 writes
sys_membarrier (dyn. check):
7970328887 reads, 425 writes
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.

MEMBARRIER(2) Linux Programmer's Manual MEMBARRIER(2)
NAME
membarrier - issue memory barriers on a set of threads
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.
