| * dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadataJoe Thornber2012-06-035-11/+193
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_. This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.

| * dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg initMikulas Patocka2012-06-031-9/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to the device. Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN. With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl too. The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened. Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten milliseconds. Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due to a path failure. Such retries should be handled intelligently by the code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write commands). For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which might fail too. It can be determined if the failure happens on the device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

| * dm mpath: delay retry of bypassed pgMike Christie2012-06-031-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available, set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying. If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a few seconds or even several minutes.

Both from Eric Dumazet. 2) Fix calculation errors in Byte Queue Limiting, from Hiroaki SHIMODA. 3) Validate the length requested when building a paged SKB for a socket, so we don't overrun the page vector accidently. From Jason Wang. 4) When netlabel is disabled, we abort all IP option processing when we see a CIPSO option. This isn't the right thing to do, we should simply skip over it and continue processing the remaining options (if any). Fix from Paul Moore. 5) SRIOV fixes for the mellanox driver from Jack orgenstein and Marcel Apfelbaum. 6) 8139cp enables the receiver before the ring address is properly programmed, which potentially lets the device crap over random memory. Fix from Jason Wang. 7) e1000/e1000e fixes for i217 RST handling, and an improper buffer address reference in jumbo RX frame processing from Bruce Allan and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior, respectively. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: fec_mpc52xx: fix timestamp filtering mcs7830: Implement link state detection e1000e: fix Rapid Start Technology support for i217 e1000: look into the page instead of skb->data for e1000_tbi_adjust_stats() r8169: call netif_napi_del at errpaths and at driver unload tcp: reflect SYN queue_mapping into SYNACK packets tcp: do not create inetpeer on SYNACK message 8139cp/8139too: terminate the eeprom access with the right opmode 8139cp: set ring address before enabling receiver cipso: handle CIPSO options correctly when NetLabel is disabled net: sock: validate data_len before allocating skb in sock_alloc_send_pskb() bql: Avoid possible inconsistent calculation. bql: Avoid unneeded limit decrement. bql: Fix POSDIFF() to integer overflow aware. net/mlx4_core: Fix obscure mlx4_cmd_box parameter in QUERY_DEV_CAP net/mlx4_core: Check port out-of-range before using in mlx4_slave_cap net/mlx4_core: Fixes for VF / Guest startup flow net/mlx4_en: Fix improper use of "port" parameter in mlx4_en_event net/mlx4_core: Fix number of EQs used in ICM initialisation net/mlx4_core: Fix the slave_id out-of-range test in mlx4_eq_int

Obvious choice is to reflect incoming SYN packet @queue_mapping to SYNACK packet. Under stress, my machine could only send 25.000 SYNACK per second (for 200.000 incoming SYN per second). NIC : ixgbe with 16 rx/tx queues. After patch, not a single SYNACK is dropped.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When NetLabel is not enabled, e.g. CONFIG_NETLABEL=n, and the system receives a CIPSO tagged packet it is dropped (cipso_v4_validate() returns non-zero). In most cases this is the correct and desired behavior, however, in the case where we are simply forwarding the traffic, e.g. acting as a network bridge, this becomes a problem. This patch fixes the forwarding problem by providing the basic CIPSO validation code directly in ip_options_compile() without the need for the NetLabel or CIPSO code. The new validation code can not perform any of the CIPSO option label/value verification that cipso_v4_validate() does, but it can verify the basic CIPSO option format. The behavior when NetLabel is enabled is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

To fix this, we do the following: 1. We add a new structure to mlx4_dev, mlx4_phys_caps, to contain physical HCA capabilities. The PPF uses the phys capabilities when it computes things like ICM size. The dev_caps structure will then contain the paravirtualized values, making bookkeeping much easier in SRIOV mode. We add a structure rather than a single parameter because there will be other fields in the phys_caps. The first field we add to the mlx4_phys_caps structure is num_phys_eqs. 2. In INIT_HCA, when running in SRIOV mode, the "log_num_eqs" parameter passed to the FW is the number of EQs per VF/PF; each function (PF or VF) has this number of EQs available. However, the total number of EQs which must be allowed for in the ICM is (1 << log_num_eqs) * (#VFs + #PFs). Rather than compute this quantity, we allocate ICM space for 1024 EQs (which is the device maximum number of EQs, and which is the value we place in the mlx4_phys_caps structure). For INIT_HCA, however, we use the per-function number of EQs as described above.

The lockdep code can call lots of functions that may be traced by ftrace. When ftrace is updating its code and hits a breakpoint, the breakpoint handler will call into lockdep. If lockdep happens to call a function that also has a breakpoint attached, it will jump back into the breakpoint handler resetting the stack to the debug stack and corrupt the contents currently on that stack. The 'do_sym' call that calls do_int3() is protected by modifying the IST table to point to a different location if another breakpoint is hit. But the TRACE_IRQS_OFF/ON are outside that protection, and if a breakpoint is hit from those, the stack will get corrupted, and the kernel will crash: [ 1013.243754] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000002 [ 1013.272665] IP: [<ffff880145cc0000>] 0xffff880145cbffff [ 1013.285186] PGD 1401b2067 PUD 14324c067 PMD 0 [ 1013.298832] Oops: 0010 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 1013.310600] CPU 2 [ 1013.317904] Modules linked in: ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 xt_state nf_conntrack ip6table_filter ip6_tables crc32c_intel ghash_clmulni_intel microcode usb_debug serio_raw pcspkr iTCO_wdt i2c_i801 iTCO_vendor_support e1000e nfsd nfs_acl auth_rpcgss lockd sunrpc i915 video i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper drm i2c_core [last unloaded: scsi_wait_scan] [ 1013.401848] [ 1013.407399] Pid: 112, comm: kworker/2:1 Not tainted 3.4.0+ #30 [ 1013.437943] RIP: 8eb8:[<ffff88014630a000>] [<ffff88014630a000>] 0xffff880146309fff [ 1013.459871] RSP: ffffffff8165e919:ffff88014780f408 EFLAGS: 00010046 [ 1013.477909] RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffffffff81104020 RCX: 0000000000000000 [ 1013.499458] RDX: ffff880148008ea8 RSI: ffffffff8131ef40 RDI: ffffffff82203b20 [ 1013.521612] RBP: ffffffff81005751 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 1013.543121] R10: ffffffff82cdc318 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff880145cc0000 [ 1013.564614] R13: ffff880148008eb8 R14: 0000000000000002 R15: ffff88014780cb40 [ 1013.586108] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880148000000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 1013.609458] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b [ 1013.627420] CR2: 0000000000000002 CR3: 0000000141f10000 CR4: 00000000001407e0 [ 1013.649051] DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 [ 1013.670724] DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 [ 1013.692376] Process kworker/2:1 (pid: 112, threadinfo ffff88013fe0e000, task ffff88014020a6a0) [ 1013.717028] Stack: [ 1013.724131] ffff88014780f570 ffff880145cc0000 0000400000004000 0000000000000000 [ 1013.745918] cccccccccccccccc ffff88014780cca8 ffffffff811072bb ffffffff81651627 [ 1013.767870] ffffffff8118f8a7 ffffffff811072bb ffffffff81f2b6c5 ffffffff81f11bdb [ 1013.790021] Call Trace: [ 1013.800701] Code: 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a <e7> d7 64 81 ff ff ff ff 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 65 d9 64 81 ff [ 1013.861443] RIP [<ffff88014630a000>] 0xffff880146309fff [ 1013.884466] RSP <ffff88014780f408> [ 1013.901507] CR2: 0000000000000002 The solution was to reuse the NMI functions that change the IDT table to make the debug stack keep its current stack (in kernel mode) when hitting a breakpoint: call debug_stack_set_zero TRACE_IRQS_ON call debug_stack_reset If the TRACE_IRQS_ON happens to hit a breakpoint then it will keep the current stack and not crash the box.

If it is, it changes the IDT table not to update the stack, otherwise it will reset the debug stack and corrupt the debug handler it preempted. Now that ftrace uses breakpoints to change functions from nops to callers, many more places may hit a breakpoint. Unfortunately this includes some of the calls that lockdep performs. Which causes issues with the debug stack. It too needs to change the debug stack before tracing (if called from the debug handler). Allow the debug_stack_set_zero() and debug_stack_reset() to be nested so that the debug handlers can take advantage of them too. [ Used this_cpu_*() over __get_cpu_var() as suggested by H.

But the variable that gets set to know to undo it on exit never gets cleared on exit. Thus every NMI will reset it on exit the first time it is done even if it does not need to be reset. [ Added H.

This is because boot up modification is done before SMP is initialized, thus the modification is serial, and module load is done before the module executes. But after that we must use a SMP safe method to modify running code. Otherwise, if we are running the function tracer and update its function (by starting off the stack tracer, or perf tracing) the change of the function called by the ftrace trampoline is done directly. If this is being executed on another CPU, that CPU may take a GPF and crash the kernel. The breakpoint method is used to change the nops at all the functions, but the change of the ftrace callback handler itself was still using a direct modification. If tracing was enabled and the function callback was changed then another CPU could fault if it was currently calling the original callback. This modification must use the breakpoint method too. Note, the direct method is still used for boot up and module load. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

But there's no synchronization between setting this code and the handler, thus it is possible for the handler to be called on another CPU before it sees the variable. This will cause a kernel crash as the int3 handler will not know what to do with it. I originally added smp_mb()'s to force the visibility of the variable but H.

But at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of user_regs_struct instead. Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to kernel.
