sound: virtuoso: do not overwrite EEPROM on Xonar D2/D2X

commit 7e86c0e6850504ec9516b953f316a47277825e33 upstream.

On the Asus Xonar D2 and D2X models, the SPI chip select signal for the
fourth DAC shares its pin with the serial clock for the EEPROM that
contains the PCI subdevice ID values.  It appears that when DAC
registers are written and some other unknown conditions occur (probably
noise on the EEPROM's chip select line), the EEPROM gets overwritten
with garbage, which makes it impossible to properly detect the card
later.

Therefore, we better avoid DAC register writes and make sure that the
driver works with the DAC's registers' default values.  Consequently,
the sample format is now I2S instead of left-justified (no user-visible
change), and the DAC's volume/mute registers cannot be used anymore
(volume changes are now done by the software volume plugin).

This is the case where a concurrent fault already installed the PTE and
we get to free the newly allocated one.

This is due to pgtable_page_ctor() doing the spin_lock_init(&page->ptl)
which is overlaid with the {private, mapping} struct.

union {
    struct {
        unsigned long private;
        struct address_space *mapping;
    };
    spinlock_t ptl;
    struct kmem_cache *slab;
    struct page *first_page;
};

Normally the spinlock is small enough to not stomp on page->mapping, but
PREEMPT_RT=y has huge 'spin'locks.

But lockdep kernels should also be able to trigger this splat, as the
lock tracking code grows the spinlock to cover page->mapping.

The obvious fix is calling pgtable_page_dtor() like the regular pte free
path __pte_free_tlb() does.

It seems all architectures except x86 and nm10300 already do this, and
nm10300 doesn't seem to use pgtable_page_ctor(), which suggests it
doesn't do SMP or simply doesnt do MMU at all or something.

commit 4f5a99d64c17470a784a6c68064207d82e3e74a5 upstream.

Remove WB_SYNC_HOLD.  The primary motiviation is the design of my
anti-starvation code for fsync.  It requires taking an inode lock over the
sync operation, so we could run into lock ordering problems with multiple
inodes.  It is possible to take a single global lock to solve the ordering
problem, but then that would prevent a future nice implementation of "sync
multiple inodes" based on lock order via inode address.

Seems like a backward step to remove this, but actually it is busted
anyway: we can't use the inode lists for data integrity wait: an inode can
be taken off the dirty lists but still be under writeback.  In order to
satisfy data integrity semantics, we should wait for it to finish
writeback, but if we only search the dirty lists, we'll miss it.

It would be possible to have a "writeback" list, for sys_sync, I suppose.
But why complicate things by prematurely optimise?  For unmounting, we
could avoid the "livelock avoidance" code, which would be easier, but
again premature IMO.

Fixing the existing data integrity problem will come next.

Direct IO can invalidate and sync a lot of pagecache pages in the mapping.
 A 4K direct IO will actually try to sync and/or invalidate the pagecache
of the entire file, for example (which might be many GB or TB large).

Improve this by doing range syncs.  Also, memory no longer has to be
unmapped to catch the dirty bits for syncing, as dirty bits would remain
coherent due to dirty mmap accounting.

This fixes the immediate DM deadlocks when doing direct IO reads to block
device with a mounted filesystem, if only by papering over the problem
somewhat rather than addressing the fsync starvation cases.

15 years agomm: write_cache_pages integrity fix
Nick Piggin [Tue, 6 Jan 2009 22:39:08 +0000 (14:39 -0800)]
mm: write_cache_pages integrity fix

commit 05fe478dd04e02fa230c305ab9b5616669821dd3 upstream.

In write_cache_pages, nr_to_write is heeded even for data-integrity syncs,
so the function will return success after writing out nr_to_write pages,
even if that was not sufficient to guarantee data integrity.

The callers tend to set it to values that could break data interity
semantics easily in practice.  For example, nr_to_write can be set to
mapping->nr_pages * 2, however if a file has a single, dirty page, then
fsync is called, subsequent pages might be concurrently added and dirtied,
then write_cache_pages might writeout two of these newly dirty pages,
while not writing out the old page that should have been written out.

Fix this by ignoring nr_to_write if it is a data integrity sync.

This is a data integrity bug.

The reason this has been done in the past is to avoid stalling sync
operations behind page dirtiers.

 "If a file has one dirty page at offset 1000000000000000 then someone
  does an fsync() and someone else gets in first and starts madly writing
  pages at offset 0, we want to write that page at 1000000000000000.
  Somehow."

What we do today is return success after an arbitrary amount of pages are
written, whether or not we have provided the data-integrity semantics that
the caller has asked for.  Even this doesn't actually fix all stall cases
completely: in the above situation, if the file has a huge number of pages
in pagecache (but not dirty), then mapping->nrpages is going to be huge,
even if pages are being dirtied.

This change does indeed make the possibility of long stalls lager, and
that's not a good thing, but lying about data integrity is even worse.  We
have to either perform the sync, or return -ELINUXISLAME so at least the
caller knows what has happened.

There are subsequent competing approaches in the works to solve the stall
problems properly, without compromising data integrity.

mm: write_cache_pages writepage error fix

commit 00266770b8b3a6a77f896ca501a0613739086832 upstream.

In write_cache_pages, if ret signals a real error, but we still have some
pages left in the pagevec, done would be set to 1, but the remaining pages
would continue to be processed and ret will be overwritten in the process.

It could easily be overwritten with success, and thus success will be
returned even if there is an error.  Thus the caller is told all writes
succeeded, wheras in reality some did not.

Fix this by bailing immediately if there is an error, and retaining the
first error code.

mm: write_cache_pages early loop termination

commit bd19e012f6fd3b7309689165ea865cbb7bb88c1e upstream.

We'd like to break out of the loop early in many situations, however the
existing code has been setting mapping->writeback_index past the final
page in the pagevec lookup for cyclic writeback.  This is a problem if we
don't process all pages up to the final page.

Currently the code mostly keeps writeback_index reasonable and hacked
around this by not breaking out of the loop or writing pages outside the
range in these cases.  Keep track of a real "done index" that enables us
to terminate the loop in a much more flexible manner.

Needed by the subsequent patch to preserve writepage errors, and then
further patches to break out of the loop early for other reasons.  However
there are no functional changes with this patch alone.

mm: write_cache_pages cyclic fix

commit 31a12666d8f0c22235297e1c1575f82061480029 upstream.

In write_cache_pages, scanned == 1 is supposed to mean that cyclic
writeback has circled through zero, thus we should not circle again.
However it gets set to 1 after the first successful pagevec lookup.  This
leads to cases where not enough data gets written.

Counterexample: file with first 10 pages dirty, writeback_index == 5,
nr_to_write == 10.  Then the 5 last pages will be found, and scanned will
be set to 1, after writing those out, we will not cycle back to get the
first 5.

Rework this logic, now we'll always cycle unless we started off from index
0.  When cycling, only write out as far as 1 page before the start page
from the first cycle (so we don't write parts of the file twice).

After XPC has been up and running on multiple partitions for any length of

a rmmod/insmod or a system restart), it is possible for the XPCs running

XPC comes up within the five-seconds preceding one of the other XPC's

The detection of no heartbeat results in the detecting XPC deactivating

David points out that the idr_remove_all() function returns unused slabs
to the kmem cache, but needs to zero them first or else they will be
uninitialized upon next use.  This causes crashes which have been observed
in the firewire subsystem.

He fixed this by zeroing the object before freeing it in idr_remove_all().

But we agree that simply removing the constructor and zeroing the object
at allocation time is simpler than relying upon slab constructor machinery
and might even be faster.

This problem was introduced by "idr: make idr_remove rcu-safe" (commit
cf481c20c476ad2c0febdace9ce23f5a4db19582), which was first released in

There are no known codesites which trigger this bug in 2.6.27 or 2.6.28.
The post-2.6.28 firewire changes are the only known triggerer.

There might of course be not-yet-discovered triggerers in 2.6.27 and
2.6.28, and there might be out-of-tree triggerers which are added to those
kernel versions.  I'll let the -stable guys decide whether they want to
backport this fix.

seem to include the READ CAPACITY bug in all of their devices.

Since cell phones and digital cameras rely on flash storage, which

shouldn't cause any problems.  Not even if the companies wise up and
start making devices without the bug.

usb-storage: add last-sector hacks

commit 25ff1c316f6a763f1eefe7f8984b2d8c03888432 upstream.

This patch (as1189d) adds some hacks to usb-storage for dealing with
the growing problems involving bad capacity values and last-sector
accesses:

A new flag, US_FL_CAPACITY_OK, is created to indicate that
the device is known to report its capacity correctly.  An
unusual_devs entry for Linux's own File-backed Storage Gadget
is added with this flag set, since g_file_storage always
reports the correct capacity and since the capacity need
not be even (it is determined by the size of the backing
file).

An entry in unusual_devs.h which has only the CAPACITY_OK
flag set shouldn't prejudice libusual, since the device will
work perfectly well with either usb-storage or ub.  So a
new macro, COMPLIANT_DEV, is added to let libusual know
about these entries.

When a last-sector access fails three times in a row and
neither the FIX_CAPACITY nor the CAPACITY_OK flag is set,
we assume the last-sector bug is present.  We replace the
existing status and sense data with values that will cause
the SCSI core to fail the access immediately rather than
retry indefinitely.  This should fix the difficulties
people have been having with Nokia phones.

This version of the patch differs from the version accepted into the
mainline only in that it does not trigger a WARN() when an
odd-numbered last-sector access succeeds.  In a stable kernel series
we don't want to go around spamming users' logs and consoles for no
good reason.

Ajith Kumar noticed:

 I was going through the vmalloc fault handling for x86_64 and am unclear
 about the following lines in the vmalloc_fault() function.

 pgd = pgd_offset(current->mm ?: &init_mm, address);
 pgd_ref = pgd_offset_k(address);

 Here the intention is to get the pgd corresponding to the current process
 and sync it up with the pgd in init_mm(obtained from pgd_offset_k).
 However, for kernel threads current->mm is NULL and hence pgd =
 pgd_offset(init_mm, address) = pgd_ref which means the fault handler
 returns without setting the pgd entry in the MM structure in the context
 of which the kernel thread has faulted.  This could lead to never-ending
 faults and busy looping of kernel threads like pdflush.  So, shouldn't the
 pgd = pgd_offset(current->mm ?: &init_mm, address); be pgd =
 pgd_offset(current->active_mm ?: &init_mm, address);

We can use active_mm unconditionally because it should be always set.

powerpc: Disable Collaborative Memory Manager for kdump

commit 2218108e182fd8a6d9106077833ed7ad05fc8e75 upstream.

When running Active Memory Sharing, the Collaborative Memory Manager
(CMM) may mark some pages as "loaned" with the hypervisor.
Periodically, the CMM will query the hypervisor for a loan request,
which is a single signed value.  When kexec'ing into a kdump kernel,
the CMM driver in the kdump kernel is not aware of the pages the
previous kernel had marked as "loaned", so the hypervisor and the CMM
driver are out of sync.  This results in the CMM driver getting a
negative loan request, which can then get treated as a large unsigned
value and can cause kdump to hang due to the CMM driver inflating too
large.  Since there really is no clean way for the CMM driver in the
kdump kernel to clean this up, simply disable CMM in the kdump kernel.
This fixes hangs we were seeing doing kdump with AMS.

nfs: remove redundant tests on reading new pages

commit 136221fc3219b3805c48db5da065e8e3467175d4 upstream.

aops->readpages() and its NFS helper readpage_async_filler() will only
be called to do readahead I/O for newly allocated pages. So it's not
necessary to test for the always 0 dirty/uptodate page flags.

The removal of nfs_wb_page() call also fixes a readahead bug: the NFS
readahead has been synchronous since 2.6.23, because that call will
clear PG_readahead, which is the reminder for asynchronous readahead.

More background: the PG_readahead page flag is shared with PG_reclaim,
one for read path and the other for write path. clear_page_dirty_for_io()
unconditionally clears PG_readahead to prevent possible readahead residuals,
assuming itself to be always called in the write path. However, NFS is one
and the only exception in that it _always_ calls clear_page_dirty_for_io()
in the read path, i.e. for readpages()/readpage().

15 years agomm lockless pagecache barrier fix

mm lockless pagecache barrier fix

commit e8c82c2e23e3527e0c9dc195e432c16784d270fa upstream.

An XFS workload showed up a bug in the lockless pagecache patch. Basically it
would go into an "infinite" loop, although it would sometimes be able to break
out of the loop! The reason is a missing compiler barrier in the "increment
reference count unless it was zero" case of the lockless pagecache protocol in
the gang lookup functions.

This would cause the compiler to use a cached value of struct page pointer to
retry the operation with, rather than reload it. So the page might have been
removed from pagecache and freed (refcount==0) but the lookup would not correctly
notice the page is no longer in pagecache, and keep attempting to increment the
refcount and failing, until the page gets reallocated for something else. This
isn't a data corruption because the condition will be detected if the page has
been reallocated. However it can result in a lockup.

Linus points out that ACCESS_ONCE is also required in that pointer load, even
if it's absence is not causing a bug on our particular build. The most general
way to solve this is just to put an rcu_dereference in radix_tree_deref_slot.

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.

The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.

Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).

This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

Some users reported that they have machines with BMCs enabled that cannot
receive IPMI traffic after e1000e is loaded.

This fixes the issue if they load with the new parameter = 0 by disabling
crc stripping, but leaves the performance feature on for most users.
