workqueue: un-GPL function delayed_work_timer_fn()

commit d8e794dfd51c368ed3f686b7f4172830b60ae47b ("workqueue: set
delayed_work->timer function on initialization") exports function
delayed_work_timer_fn() only for GPL modules. This makes delayed-works
unusable for non-GPL modules, because initialization macro now requires
GPL symbol. For example schedule_delayed_work() available for non-GPL.

workqueue: rename cpu_workqueue to pool_workqueue

workqueue has moved away from global_cwqs to worker_pools and with the
scheduled custom worker pools, wforkqueues will be associated with
pools which don't have anything to do with CPUs.  The workqueue code
went through significant amount of changes recently and mass renaming
isn't likely to hurt much additionally.  Let's replace 'cpu' with
'pool' so that it reflects the current design.

As cwq might not exist for all possible workqueue CPUs, @cwq can be
NULL and the following cwq deferences can lead to oops.

Fix it by using for_each_cwq_cpu() instead, which is the better one to

workqueue: pick cwq instead of pool in __queue_work()

Currently, __queue_work() chooses the pool to queue a work item to and
then determines cwq from the target wq and the chosen pool.  This is a
bit backwards in that we can determine cwq first and simply use
cwq->pool.  This way, we can skip get_std_worker_pool() in queueing
path which will be a hurdle when implementing custom worker pools.

Update __queue_work() such that it chooses the target cwq and then use
cwq->pool instead of the other way around.  While at it, add missing
{} in an if statement.

tj: The original patch had two get_cwq() calls - the first to

workqueue: make get_work_pool_id() cheaper

get_work_pool_id() currently first obtains pool using get_work_pool()

obtaining pool ID from worker->data, performing idr_find() to find the

    the function to offq_work_pool_id().  There isn't much benefit in

workqueue: simplify is-work-item-queued-here test

Currently, determining whether a work item is queued on a locked pool
involves somewhat convoluted memory barrier dancing.  It goes like the
following.

* When a work item is queued on a pool, work->data is updated before
  work->entry is linked to the pending list with a wmb() inbetween.

* When trying to determine whether a work item is currently queued on
  a pool pointed to by work->data, it locks the pool and looks at
  work->entry.  If work->entry is linked, we then do rmb() and then
  check whether work->data points to the current pool.

This works because, work->data can only point to a pool if it
currently is or were on the pool and,

* If it currently is on the pool, the tests would obviously succeed.

* It it left the pool, its work->entry was cleared under pool->lock,
  so if we're seeing non-empty work->entry, it has to be from the work
  item being linked on another pool.  Because work->data is updated
  before work->entry is linked with wmb() inbetween, work->data update
  from another pool is guaranteed to be visible if we do rmb() after
  seeing non-empty work->entry.  So, we either see empty work->entry
  or we see updated work->data pointin to another pool.

While this works, it's convoluted, to put it mildly.  With recent
updates, it's now guaranteed that work->data points to cwq only while
the work item is queued and that updating work->data to point to cwq
or back to pool is done under pool->lock, so we can simply test
whether work->data points to cwq which is associated with the
currently locked pool instead of the convoluted memory barrier
dancing.

This patch replaces the memory barrier based "are you still here,
really?" test with much simpler "does work->data points to me?" test -
if work->data points to a cwq which is associated with the currently
locked pool, the work item is guaranteed to be queued on the pool as
work->data can start and stop pointing to such cwq only under
pool->lock and the start and stop coincide with queue and dequeue.

workqueue: make work->data point to pool after try_to_grab_pending()

We plan to use work->data pointing to cwq as the synchronization
invariant when determining whether a given work item is on a locked
pool or not, which requires work->data pointing to cwq only while the
work item is queued on the associated pool.

With delayed_work updated not to overload work->data for target
workqueue recording, the only case where we still have off-queue
work->data pointing to cwq is try_to_grab_pending() which doesn't
update work->data after stealing a queued work item.  There's no
reason for try_to_grab_pending() to not update work->data to point to
the pool instead of cwq, like the normal execution does.

This patch adds set_work_pool_and_keep_pending() which makes
work->data point to pool instead of cwq but keeps the pending bit
unlike set_work_pool_and_clear_pending() (surprise!).

workqueue: add delayed_work->wq to simplify reentrancy handling

To avoid executing the same work item from multiple CPUs concurrently,
a work_struct records the last pool it was on in its ->data so that,
on the next queueing, the pool can be queried to determine whether the
work item is still executing or not.

A delayed_work goes through timer before actually being queued on the
target workqueue and the timer needs to know the target workqueue and
CPU.  This is currently achieved by modifying delayed_work->work.data
such that it points to the cwq which points to the target workqueue
and the last CPU the work item was on.  __queue_delayed_work()
extracts the last CPU from delayed_work->work.data and then combines
it with the target workqueue to create new work.data.

The only thing this rather ugly hack achieves is encoding the target
workqueue into delayed_work->work.data without using a separate field,
which could be a trade off one can make; unfortunately, this entangles
work->data management between regular workqueue and delayed_work code
by setting cwq pointer before the work item is actually queued and
becomes a hindrance for further improvements of work->data handling.

This can be easily made sane by adding a target workqueue field to
delayed_work.  While delayed_work is used widely in the kernel and
this does make it a bit larger (<5%), I think this is the right
trade-off especially given the prospect of much saner handling of
work->data which currently involves quite tricky memory barrier
dancing, and don't expect to see any measureable effect.

Add delayed_work->wq and drop the delayed_work->work.data overloading.

workqueue: make work_busy() test WORK_STRUCT_PENDING first

Currently, work_busy() first tests whether the work has a pool
associated with it and if not, considers it idle.  This works fine
even for delayed_work.work queued on timer, as __queue_delayed_work()
sets cwq on delayed_work.work - a queued delayed_work always has its
cwq and thus pool associated with it.

However, we're about to update delayed_work queueing and this won't
hold.  Update work_busy() such that it tests WORK_STRUCT_PENDING

Currently, when a work item is off queue, high bits of its data
encodes the last CPU it was on.  This is scheduled to be changed to
pool ID, which will make it impossible to use WORK_CPU_NONE to
indicate no association.

This patch limits the number of bits which are used for off-queue cpu
number to 31 (so that the max fits in an int) and uses the highest
possible value - WORK_OFFQ_CPU_NONE - to indicate no association.

workqueue: set PF_WQ_WORKER on rescuers

PF_WQ_WORKER is used to tell scheduler that the task is a workqueue
worker and needs wq_worker_sleeping/waking_up() invoked on it for
concurrency management.  As rescuers never participate in concurrency
management, PF_WQ_WORKER wasn't set on them.

There's a need for an interface which can query whether %current is
executing a work item and if so which.  Such interface requires a way
to identify all tasks which may execute work items and PF_WQ_WORKER
will be used for that.  As all normal workers always have PF_WQ_WORKER
set, we only need to add it to rescuers.

As rescuers start with WORKER_PREP but never clear it, it's always
NOT_RUNNING and there's no need to worry about it interfering with
concurrency management even if PF_WQ_WORKER is set; however, unlike
normal workers, rescuers currently don't have its worker struct as
kthread_data().  It uses the associated workqueue_struct instead.
This is problematic as wq_worker_sleeping/waking_up() expect struct
worker at kthread_data().

This patch adds worker->rescue_wq and start rescuer kthreads with
worker struct as kthread_data and sets PF_WQ_WORKER on rescuers.

workqueue: consider work function when searching for busy work items

To avoid executing the same work item concurrenlty, workqueue hashes
currently busy workers according to their current work items and looks
up the the table when it wants to execute a new work item.  If there
already is a worker which is executing the new work item, the new item
is queued to the found worker so that it gets executed only after the
current execution finishes.

Unfortunately, a work item may be freed while being executed and thus
recycled for different purposes.  If it gets recycled for a different
work item and queued while the previous execution is still in
progress, workqueue may make the new work item wait for the old one
although the two aren't really related in any way.

In extreme cases, this false dependency may lead to deadlock although
it's extremely unlikely given that there aren't too many self-freeing
work item users and they usually don't wait for other work items.

To alleviate the problem, record the current work function in each
busy worker and match it together with the work item address in
find_worker_executing_work().  While this isn't complete, it ensures
that unrelated work items don't interact with each other and in the
very unlikely case where a twisted wq user triggers it, it's always
onto itself making the culprit easy to spot.

prandom: introduce prandom_bytes() and prandom_bytes_state()

Add functions to get the requested number of pseudo-random bytes.

The difference from get_random_bytes() is that it generates pseudo-random
numbers by prandom_u32().  It doesn't consume the entropy pool, and the
sequence is reproducible if the same rnd_state is used.  So it is suitable
for generating random bytes for testing.

random32: rename random32 to prandom

This renames all random32 functions to have 'prandom_' prefix as follows:

  void prandom_seed(u32 seed); /* rename from srandom32() */
  u32 prandom_u32(void); /* rename from random32() */
  void prandom_seed_state(struct rnd_state *state, u64 seed);
   /* rename from prandom32_seed() */
  u32 prandom_u32_state(struct rnd_state *state);
   /* rename from prandom32() */

The purpose of this renaming is to prevent some kernel developers from
assuming that prandom32() and random32() might imply that only
prandom32() was the one using a pseudo-random number generator by
prandom32's "p", and the result may be a very embarassing security
exposure.  This concern was expressed by Theodore Ts'o.

And furthermore, I'm going to introduce new functions for getting the
requested number of pseudo-random bytes.  If I continue to use both
prandom32 and random32 prefixes for these functions, the confusion
is getting worse.

As a result of this renaming, "prandom_" is the common prefix for
pseudo-random number library.

Currently, srandom32() and random32() are preserved because it is
difficult to rename too many users at once.

aoe: allow comma separator in aoe_iflist value

  modprobe aoe aoe_iflist=eth2,eth3

aoe: allow user to disable target failure timeout

number of seconds during which the driver will continue to attempt
retransmits to an unresponsive AoE target.  After aoe_deadsecs has
elapsed, the aoe driver marks the aoe device as "down" and fails all
I/O.

The new meaning of an aoe_deadsecs of zero is for the driver to
retransmit commands indefinitely.

aoe: avoid races between device destruction and discovery

This change avoids a race that could result in a NULL pointer derference
following a WARNing from kobject_add_internal, "don't try to register
things with the same name in the same directory."

The problem was found with a test that forgets and discovers an
aoe device in a loop:

  while test ! -r /tmp/stop; do
aoe-flush -a
aoe-discover
  done

The race was between aoedev_flush taking aoedevs out of the devlist,
allowing a new discovery of the same AoE target to take place before the
driver gets around to calling sysfs_remove_group.  Fixing that one
revealed another race between do_open and add_disk, and this patch avoids
that, too.

The fix required some care, because for flushing (forgetting) an aoedev,
some of the steps must be performed under lock and some must be able to
sleep.  Also, for discovering a new aoedev, some steps might sleep.

The check for a bad aoedev pointer remains from a time when about half of
this patch was done, and it was possible for the
bdev->bd_disk->private_data to become corrupted.  The check should be
removed eventually, but it is not expected to add significant overhead,
occurring in the aoeblk_open routine.

aoe: improve handling of misbehaving network paths

An AoE target can have multiple network ports used for AoE, and in the
aoe driver, those are tracked by the aoetgt struct.  These changes allow
the aoe driver to handle network paths, or aoetgts, that are not working
well, compared to the others.

Paths that do not get responses despite the retransmission of AoE
commands are marked as "tainted", and non-tainted paths are preferred.

Meanwhile, the aoe driver attempts to "probe" the tainted path in the
background by issuing reads of LBA 0 that are padded out to full

aoe: remove vestigial request queue allocation

Before the aoe driver was an I/O request handler, it was a
make_request-style block driver.  Even so, there was a problem where
sysfs expected a request queue to exist, so one was provided in commit
7135a71b19be ("aoe: allocate unused request_queue for sysfs").

During the transition to the request-handler style, a patch was merged
that was based on a driver without the noop queue, and the noop queue
remained in place after the patch was merged, even though a new
functional queue was introduced by the patch, allocated through
blk_init_queue.

The user impact is a memory leak proportional to the number of AoE
targets discovered.  This patch removes the memory leak and cleans up
vestiges of the old do-nothing queue from the aoeblk_gdalloc function.

Commit f3b8e07af774 ("aoe: commands in retransmit queue use new

when an AoE command was sent during the failover from one destination
MAC address on the AoE target to another.

The coarse-grained timing is only used when the system time changes or
an unlikely length of time has passed since the sending of the AoE
command.  Users will not be impacted unless their system clock is very

the period when the aoe driver is handling the failure of a port on the

considered "down" too eagerly.

aoe: commands in retransmit queue use new destination on failure

When one remote MAC address isn't working as a destination for AoE
commands, the frames used to track information associated with the AoE
commands are moved to a new aoetgt (defined by the tuple of {AoE major,

need to be done are updated to use the new destination, so that
retransmits will be sent through a working network path.

Without this change, packets on the retransmit queue will be needlessly
retransmitted to the unresponsive destination MAC, possibly causing
premature target failure before there's time for the retransmit timer to
run again, decide to retransmit again, and finally update the destination

exec: use -ELOOP for max recursion depth

To avoid an explosion of request_module calls on a chain of abusive
scripts, fail maximum recursion with -ELOOP instead of -ENOEXEC. As soon
as maximum recursion depth is hit, the error will fail all the way back
up the chain, aborting immediately.

This also has the side-effect of stopping the user's shell from attempting
to reexecute the top-level file as a shell script. As seen in the
dash source:

        if (cmd != path_bshell && errno == ENOEXEC) {
                *argv-- = cmd;
                *argv = cmd = path_bshell;
                goto repeat;
        }

The above logic was designed for running scripts automatically that lacked
the "#!" header, not to re-try failed recursion. On a legitimate -ENOEXEC,
things continue to behave as the shell expects.

Additionally, when tracking recursion, the binfmt handlers should not be
involved. The recursion being tracked is the depth of calls through
search_binary_handler(), so that function should be exclusively responsible
for tracking the depth.
