The method drivers currently use to synchronize multicast lists is not

- walk the copy of the previous list
- search each entry on the current list
- if removed delete from lower device
- copy entire list

Currently the set_multicast_list (and set_rx_mode) callbacks are
responsible for configuring the device according to the IFF_PROMISC,
IFF_MULTICAST and IFF_ALLMULTI flags and the mc_list (and uc_list in
case of set_rx_mode).
These callbacks can be invoked from BH context without the rtnl_mutex
by dev_mc_add/dev_mc_delete, which makes reading the device flags and
promiscous/allmulti count racy. For real hardware drivers that just
commit all changes to the hardware this is not a real problem since
the stack guarantees to call them for every change, so at least the
final call will not race and commit the correct configuration to the
hardware.
For software devices that want to synchronize promiscous and multicast
state to an underlying device however this can cause corruption of the
underlying device's flags or promisc/allmulti counts.
When the software device is concurrently put in promiscous or allmulti
mode while set_multicast_list is invoked from bottem half context, the
device might synchronize the change to the underlying device without
holding the rtnl_mutex, which races with concurrent changes to the
underlying device.
Add a dev->change_rx_flags hook that is invoked when any of the flags
that affect rx filtering change (under the rtnl_mutex), which allows
drivers to perform synchronization immediately and only synchronize
the address lists in set_multicast_list/set_rx_mode.

When a read bio is attached to the stripe and the corresponding block is

the data from the stripe cache to the bio buffer. handle_stripe flags the

handle_stripe will compute a block when a backing disk has failed, or when
it determines it can save a disk read by computing the block from all the
other up-to-date blocks.
Previously a block would be computed under the lock and subsequent logic in
handle_stripe could use the newly up-to-date block. With the raid5_run_ops
implementation the compute operation is carried out a later time outside
the lock. To preserve the old functionality we take advantage of the
dependency chain feature of async_tx to flag the block as R5_Wantcompute
and then let other parts of handle_stripe operate on the block as if it
were up-to-date. raid5_run_ops guarantees that the block will be ready
before it is used in another operation.
However, this only works in cases where the compute and the dependent
operation are scheduled at the same time. If a previous call to
handle_stripe sets the R5_Wantcompute flag there is no facility to pass the
async_tx dependency chain across successive calls to raid5_run_ops. The
req_compute variable protects against this case.

When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following
attack plan:
1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock)
2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api
The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and
the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy
operations asynchronously, outside the lock.
To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed
to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this
new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work,
updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and
calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the
requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops:
STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL
- copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request
STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK
- generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks
STRIPE_OP_PREXOR
- subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process
STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN
- copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request
STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR
- recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache
STRIPE_OP_CHECK
- verify that the parity is correct
STRIPE_OP_IO
- submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside
the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type
The flow is:
1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending
2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the
operation to the async_tx api
3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set
sh->ops.complete and release the stripe
4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit
new operations that were previously blocked
Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per
major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this
routine.
Changelog:
* removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and
ops_complete_write.
* removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue
* call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to
handle_stripe

handle_stripe5 and handle_stripe6 have very deep logic paths handling the
various states of a stripe_head. By introducing the 'stripe_head_state'
and 'r6_state' objects, large portions of the logic can be moved to
sub-routines.
'struct stripe_head_state' consumes all of the automatic variables that previously
stood alone in handle_stripe5,6. 'struct r6_state' contains the handle_stripe6
specific variables like p_failed and q_failed.
One of the nice side effects of the 'stripe_head_state' change is that it
allows for further reductions in code duplication between raid5 and raid6.
The following new routines are shared between raid5 and raid6:
handle_completed_write_requests
handle_requests_to_failed_array
handle_stripe_expansion
Changes:
* v2: fixed 'conf->raid_disk-1' for the raid6 'handle_stripe_expansion' path
* v3: removed the unused 'dirty' field from struct stripe_head_state
* v3: coalesced open coded bi_end_io routines into return_io()

The async_tx api provides methods for describing a chain of asynchronous
bulk memory transfers/transforms with support for inter-transactional
dependencies. It is implemented as a dmaengine client that smooths over
the details of different hardware offload engine implementations. Code
that is written to the api can optimize for asynchronous operation and the
api will fit the chain of operations to the available offload resources.
I imagine that any piece of ADMA hardware would register with the
'async_*' subsystem, and a call to async_X would be routed as
appropriate, or be run in-line. - Neil Brown
async_tx exploits the capabilities of struct dma_async_tx_descriptor to
provide an api of the following general format:
struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *
async_<operation>(..., struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *depend_tx,
dma_async_tx_callback cb_fn, void *cb_param)
{
struct dma_chan *chan = async_tx_find_channel(depend_tx, <operation>);
struct dma_device *device = chan ? chan->device : NULL;
int int_en = cb_fn ? 1 : 0;
struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx = device ?
device->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_en) : NULL;
if (tx) { /* run <operation> asynchronously */
...
tx->tx_set_dest(addr, tx, index);
...
tx->tx_set_src(addr, tx, index);
...
async_tx_submit(chan, tx, flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param);
} else { /* run <operation> synchronously */
...
<operation>
...
async_tx_sync_epilog(flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param);
}
return tx;
}
async_tx_find_channel() returns a capable channel from its pool. The
channel pool is organized as a per-cpu array of channel pointers. The
async_tx_rebalance() routine is tasked with managing these arrays. In the
uniprocessor case async_tx_rebalance() tries to spread responsibility
evenly over channels of similar capabilities. For example if there are two
copy+xor channels, one will handle copy operations and the other will
handle xor. In the SMP case async_tx_rebalance() attempts to spread the
operations evenly over the cpus, e.g. cpu0 gets copy channel0 and xor
channel0 while cpu1 gets copy channel 1 and xor channel 1. When a
dependency is specified async_tx_find_channel defaults to keeping the
operation on the same channel. A xor->copy->xor chain will stay on one
channel if it supports both operation types, otherwise the transaction will
transition between a copy and a xor resource.
Currently the raid5 implementation in the MD raid456 driver has been
converted to the async_tx api. A driver for the offload engines on the
Intel Xscale series of I/O processors, iop-adma, is provided in a later
commit. With the iop-adma driver and async_tx, raid456 is able to offload
copy, xor, and xor-zero-sum operations to hardware engines.
On iop342 tiobench showed higher throughput for sequential writes (20 - 30%
improvement) and sequential reads to a degraded array (40 - 55%
improvement). For the other cases performance was roughly equal, +/- a few
percentage points. On a x86-smp platform the performance of the async_tx
implementation (in synchronous mode) was also +/- a few percentage points
of the original implementation. According to 'top' on iop342 CPU
utilization drops from ~50% to ~15% during a 'resync' while the speed
according to /proc/mdstat doubles from ~25 MB/s to ~50 MB/s.
The tiobench command line used for testing was: tiobench --size 2048
--block 4096 --block 131072 --dir /mnt/raid --numruns 5
* iop342 had 1GB of memory available
Details:
* if CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=n the asynchronous path is compiled away by making
async_tx_find_channel a static inline routine that always returns NULL
* when a callback is specified for a given transaction an interrupt will
fire at operation completion time and the callback will occur in a
tasklet. if the the channel does not support interrupts then a live
polling wait will be performed
* the api is written as a dmaengine client that requests all available
channels
* In support of dependencies the api implicitly schedules channel-switch
interrupts. The interrupt triggers the cleanup tasklet which causes
pending operations to be scheduled on the next channel
* Xor engines treat an xor destination address differently than a software
xor routine. To the software routine the destination address is an implied
source, whereas engines treat it as a write-only destination. This patch
modifies the xor_blocks routine to take a an explicit destination address
to mirror the hardware.

The current implementation assumes that a channel will only be used by one
client at a time. In order to enable channel sharing the dmaengine core is
changed to a model where clients subscribe to channel-available-events.
Instead of tracking how many channels a client wants and how many it has
received the core just broadcasts the available channels and lets the
clients optionally take a reference. The core learns about the clients'
needs at dma_event_callback time.
In support of multiple operation types, clients can specify a capability
mask to only be notified of channels that satisfy a certain set of
capabilities.

The descriptor creation process is refactored using the new common
dma_async_tx_descriptor structure. Instead of per driver
do_<operation>_<dest>_to_<src> methods, drivers integrate
dma_async_tx_descriptor into their private software descriptor and then
define a 'prep' routine per operation. The prep routine allocates a
descriptor and ensures that the tx_set_src, tx_set_dest, tx_submit routines
are valid. Descriptor creation and submission becomes:
struct dma_device *dev;
struct dma_chan *chan;
struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx;
tx = dev->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_flag)
tx->tx_set_src(dma_addr_t, tx, index /* for multi-source ops */)
tx->tx_set_dest(dma_addr_t, tx, index)
tx->tx_submit(tx)
In addition to the refactoring, dma_async_tx_descriptor also lays the
groundwork for definining cross-channel-operation dependencies, and a
callback facility for asynchronous notification of operation completion.

This patch removes controller driver infrastructure which supported
the now-removed usb_ep_{alloc,free}_buffer() calls.
As can be seen, many of the implementations of this were broken to
various degrees. Many didn't properly return dma-coherent mappings;
those which did so were necessarily ugly because of bogosity in the
underlying dma_free_coherent() calls ... which on many platforms
can't be called from the same contexts (notably in_irq) from which
their dma_alloc_coherent() sibling can be called.
The main potential downside of removing this is that gadget drivers
wouldn't have specific knowledge that the controller drivers have:
endpoints that aren't dma-capable don't need any dma mappings at all.

Remove usb_ep_{alloc,free}_buffer() calls, for small dma-coherent buffers.
This patch just removes the interface and its users; later patches will
remove controller driver support.
- This interface is invariably not implemented correctly in the
controller drivers (e.g. using dma pools, a mechanism which
post-dates the interface by several years).
- At this point no gadget driver really *needs* to use it. In
current kernels, any driver that needs such a mechanism could
allocate a dma pool themselves.
Removing this interface is thus a simplification and improvement.

This patch (as918) introduces a new USB driver method: reset_resume.
It is called when a device needs to be reset as part of a resume
procedure (whether because of a device quirk or because of the
USB-Persist facility), thereby taking over a role formerly assigned to
the post_reset method. As a consequence, post_reset no longer needs
an argument indicating whether it is being called as part of a
reset-resume. This separation of functions makes the code clearer.
In addition, the pre_reset and post_reset method return types are
changed; they now must return an error code. The return value is
unused at present, but at some later time we may unbind drivers and
re-probe if they encounter an error during reset handling.
The existing pre_reset and post_reset methods in the usbhid,
usb-storage, and hub drivers are updated to match the new
requirements. For usbhid the post_reset routine is also used for
reset_resume (duplicate method pointers); for the other drivers a new
reset_resume routine is added. The change to hub.c looks bigger than
it really is, because mark_children_for_reset_resume() gets moved down
next to the new hub_reset_resume() routine.
A minor change to usb-storage makes the usb_stor_report_bus_reset()
routine acquire the host lock instead of requiring the caller to hold
it already.

Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
Let the drivers specify how many bytes they want to read with
i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So far, the block count was
hard-coded to I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which did not make much sense.
Many driver authors complained about this before, and I believe it's
about time to fix it. Right now, authors have to do technically stupid
things, such as individual byte reads or full-fledged I2C messaging,
to work around the problem. We do not want to encourage that.
I even found that some bus drivers (e.g. i2c-amd8111) already
implemented I2C block read the "right" way, that is, they didn't
follow the old, broken standard. The fact that it was never noticed
before just shows how little i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() was used,
which isn't that surprising given how broken its prototype was so far.
There are some obvious compatiblity considerations:
* This changes the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype. Users
outside the kernel tree will notice at compilation time, and will
have to update their code.
* User-space has access to i2c_smbus_xfer() directly using i2c-dev, so
the changed expectations would affect tools such as i2cdump. In order
to preserve binary compatibility, we give I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA
a new numeric value, and define I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN with the
old numeric value. When i2c-dev receives a transaction with the
old value, it can convert it to the new format on the fly.

Generate I2C kerneldoc; fix various glitches and add "context" sections to
that documentation. Most I2C and SMBus functions still have no kerneldoc.
Let me suggest providing kerneldoc for all the i2c_smbus_*() functions as
a small and mostly self-contained project for anyone so inclined. :)

Add a new security check on mmap operations to see if the user is attempting
to mmap to low area of the address space. The amount of space protected is
indicated by the new proc tunable /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr and defaults to
0, preserving existing behavior.
This patch uses a new SELinux security class "memprotect." Policy already
contains a number of allow rules like a_t self:process * (unconfined_t being
one of them) which mean that putting this check in the process class (its
best current fit) would make it useless as all user processes, which we also
want to protect against, would be allowed. By taking the memprotect name of
the new class it will also make it possible for us to move some of the other
memory protect permissions out of 'process' and into the new class next time
we bump the policy version number (which I also think is a good future idea)

The VLAN MAC address handling is broken in multiple ways. When the address
differs when setting it, the real device is put in promiscous mode twice,
but never taken out again. Additionally it doesn't resync when the real
device's address is changed and needlessly puts it in promiscous mode when
the vlan device is still down.
Fix by moving address handling to vlan_dev_open/vlan_dev_stop and properly
deal with address changes in the device notifier. Also switch to
dev_unicast_add (which needs the exact same handling).
Since the set_mac_address handler is identical to the generic ethernet one
with these changes, kill it and use ether_setup().

Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

This patch makes dentries and inodes for sysfs directories
reclaimable.
* sysfs_notify() is modified to walk sysfs_dirent tree instead of
dentry tree.
* sysfs_update_file() and sysfs_chmod_file() use sysfs_get_dentry() to
grab the victim dentry.
* sysfs_rename_dir() and sysfs_move_dir() grab all dentries using
sysfs_get_dentry() on startup.
* Dentries for all shadowed directories are pinned in memory to serve
as lookup start point.

As kobj sysfs dentries and inodes are gonna be made reclaimable,
dentry can't be used as naming token for sysfs file/directory, replace
kobj->dentry with kobj->sd. The only external interface change is
shadow directory handling. All other changes are contained in kobj
and sysfs.

Rename sysfs_dirent->s_type to s_flags, pack type into lower eight
bits and reserve the rest for flags. sysfs_type() can used to access
the type. All existing sd->s_type accesses are converted to use
sysfs_type(). While at it, type test is changed to equality test
instead of bit-and test where appropriate.
