16 years agoftrace: fix dyn ftrace filter selection
Steven Rostedt [Wed, 19 Nov 2008 01:33:02 +0000 (20:33 -0500)]
ftrace: fix dyn ftrace filter selection

Impact: clean up and fix for dyn ftrace filter selection

The previous logic of the dynamic ftrace selection of enabling
or disabling functions was complex and incorrect. This patch simplifies
the code and corrects the usage. This simplification also makes the
code more robust.

Here is the correct logic:

  Given a function that can be traced by dynamic ftrace:

  If the function is not to be traced, disable it if it was enabled.
  (this is if the function is in the set_ftrace_notrace file)

  (filter is on if there exists any functions in set_ftrace_filter file)

  If the filter is on, and we are enabling functions:
    If the function is in set_ftrace_filter, enable it if it is not
      already enabled.
    If the function is not in set_ftrace_filter, disable it if it is not
      already disabled.

  Otherwise, if the filter is off and we are enabling function tracing:
    Enable the function if it is not already enabled.

  Otherwise, if we are disabling function tracing:
    Disable the function if it is not already disabled.

This code now sets or clears the ENABLED flag in the record, and at the
end it will enable the function if the flag is set, or disable the function
if the flag is cleared.

The parameters for the function that does the above logic is also
simplified. Instead of passing in confusing "new" and "old" where
they might be swapped if the "enabled" flag is not set. The old logic
even had one of the above always NULL and had to be filled in. The new
logic simply passes in one parameter called "nop". A "call" is calculated
in the code, and at the end of the logic, when we know we need to either
disable or enable the function, we can then use the "nop" and "call"
properly.

This code is more robust than the previous version.

block: fix boot failure with CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y and nash

We run into system boot failure with kernel 2.6.28-rc. We found it on a
couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another
HPC NX6325 notebook.  All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9.
With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail.

I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517

As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs.

1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times
and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return
value 0.  Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes,
0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for
exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are
available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting
other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related.  I work
out a patch for nash to fix it.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858

2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports
switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting:
    (1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop)
    (2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line
"8 sd";
    (3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK)
type for the device and add it to its own list;
    (4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem
labels; scsi register "8 sd" always.

When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables
CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up
for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK)
type.

To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for
kernel.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18859
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18837

Below is the patch for kernel 2.6.28-rc4. It registers blkext, a new
block device in proc/devices.

With 2 patches on nash and 1 patch on kernel, I boot my machines for
dozens of times without failure.

cpuset: fix regression when failed to generate sched domains

Impact: properly rebuild sched-domains on kmalloc() failure

When cpuset failed to generate sched domains due to kmalloc()
failure, the scheduler should fallback to the single partition
'fallback_doms' and rebuild sched domains, but now it only
destroys but not rebuilds sched domains.

The regression was introduced by:

| commit dfb512ec4834116124da61d6c1ee10fd0aa32bd6
| Author: Max Krasnyansky <maxk@qualcomm.com>
| Date:   Fri Aug 29 13:11:41 2008 -0700
|
|    sched: arch_reinit_sched_domains() must destroy domains to force rebuild

After the above commit, partition_sched_domains(0, NULL, NULL) will
only destroy sched domains and partition_sched_domains(1, NULL, NULL)
will create the default sched domain.

prevent cifs_writepages() from skipping unwritten pages

Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left
dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed.

In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages()
asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time.
Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling
pagevec_lookup_tag() again.

If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting
index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of
the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing
with them.  This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about
to be closed.

This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so
that none get skipped.

This patch fixes swiotlb to use dev->coherent_dma_mask in
swiotlb_alloc_coherent().

coherent_dma_mask is a subset of dma_mask (equal to it most of
the time), enumerating the address range that a given device
is able to DMA to/from in a cache-coherent way.

But currently, swiotlb uses dev->dma_mask in alloc_coherent()
implicitly via address_needs_mapping(), but alloc_coherent is really
supposed to use coherent_dma_mask.

This bug could break drivers that uses smaller coherent_dma_mask than
dma_mask (though the current code works for the majority that use the
same mask for coherent_dma_mask and dma_mask).

16 years agofunction tracing: fix wrong pos computing when read buffer has been fulfilled
walimis [Sat, 15 Nov 2008 07:19:06 +0000 (15:19 +0800)]
function tracing: fix wrong pos computing when read buffer has been fulfilled

Impact: make output of available_filter_functions complete

phenomenon:

The first value of dyn_ftrace_total_info is not equal with
`cat available_filter_functions | wc -l`, but they should be equal.

root cause:

When printing functions with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer
is just overflowed by current function record, then this function
won't be printed to user space through read buffer, it will
just be dropped. So we can't see this function printing.

So, every time the last function to fill the read buffer, if overflowed,
will be dropped.

This also applies to set_ftrace_filter if set_ftrace_filter has
more bytes than read buffer.

fix:

Through checking return value of seq_printf, if less than 0, we know
this function doesn't be printed. Then we decrease position to force
this function to be printed next time, in next read buffer.

Another little fix is to show correct allocating pages count.

Al Viro [Sat, 15 Nov 2008 01:15:43 +0000 (01:15 +0000)]
Fix inotify watch removal/umount races

Inotify watch removals suck violently.

To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and
ih->mutex.  That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all
other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount.  We can
*NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will
happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially
outliving its superblock.

Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we
can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until
we are done.  Cleanup is just deactivate_super().

However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with
umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore?
We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait
until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining
for fjords.  That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the
window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e.
the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading
for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires
->s_umount.

We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather
antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable.  OTOH, having grabbed
->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e.  that
->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with
inotify_umount_inodes().

So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just
with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong.  We had
to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount.  So the watch
could've been gone already.

That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find()
and compare its result with our pointer.  If they match, we either have
the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once,
the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd
at the same address.  That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(),
but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that.  Still, "new one got created"
is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone,
whatever's more convenient.

So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as
"grab it and kill it" check.  If it's been our original watch, we are
fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the
race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its
superblock won't be going away.

And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire
concept of inotify to start with.

libata: improve phantom device detection

Currently libata uses four methods to detect device presence.

1. PHY status if available.
2. TF register R/W test (only promotes presence, never demotes)
3. device signature after reset
4. IDENTIFY failure detection in SFF state machine

Combination of the above works well in most cases but recently there
have been a few reports where a phantom device causes unnecessary
delay during probe.  In both cases, PHY status wasn't available.  In
one case, it passed #2 and #3 and failed IDENTIFY with ATA_ERR which
didn't qualify as #4.  The other failed #2 but as it passed #3 and #4,
it still caused failure.

In both cases, phantom device reported diagnostic failure, so these
cases can be safely worked around by considering any !ATA_DRQ IDENTIFY
failure as NODEV_HINT if diagnostic failure is set.

freed yet, but apart from just unregistering the device from the
