      workqueue: Replace pool->attach_mutex with global wq_pool_attach_mutex · 1258fae7
      Tejun Heo authored
      To improve workqueue visibility, we want to be able to access
      workqueue information from worker tasks.  The per-pool attach mutex
      makes that difficult because there's no way of stabilizing task ->
      worker pool association without knowing the pool first.
      
      Worker attach/detach is a slow path and there's no need for different
      pools to be able to perform them concurrently.  This patch replaces
      the per-pool attach_mutex with global wq_pool_attach_mutex to prepare
      for visibility improvement changes.

      Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
       "Some of the ftrace internal events use a zero for a data size of a
        field event. This is increasingly important for the histogram trigger
        work that is being extended.
      
        While auditing trace events, I found that a couple of the xen events
        were used as just marking that a function was called, by creating a
        static array of size zero. This can play havoc with the tracing
        features if these events are used, because a zero size of a static
        array is denoted as a special nul terminated dynamic array (this is
        what the trace_marker code uses). But since the xen events have no
        size, they are not nul terminated, and unexpected results may occur.
      
        As trace events were never intended on being a marker to denote that a
        function was hit or not, especially since function tracing and kprobes
        can trivially do the same, the best course of action is to simply
        remove these events"

      vsprintf: Replace memory barrier with static_key for random_ptr_key update · 85f4f12d
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored
      Reviewing Tobin's patches for getting pointers out early before
      entropy has been established, I noticed that there's a lone smp_mb() in
      the code. As with most lone memory barriers, this one appears to be
      incorrectly used.
      
      We currently basically have this:
      
      	get_random_bytes(&ptr_key, sizeof(ptr_key));
      	/*
      	 * have_filled_random_ptr_key==true is dependent on get_random_bytes().
      	 * ptr_to_id() needs to see have_filled_random_ptr_key==true
      	 * after get_random_bytes() returns.
      	 */
      	smp_mb();
      	WRITE_ONCE(have_filled_random_ptr_key, true);
      
      And later we have:
      
      	if (unlikely(!have_filled_random_ptr_key))
      		return string(buf, end, "(ptrval)", spec);
      
      /* Missing memory barrier here. */
      
      	hashval = (unsigned long)siphash_1u64((u64)ptr, &ptr_key);
      
      As the CPU can perform speculative loads, we could have a situation
      with the following:
      
      	CPU0				CPU1
      	----				----
      				   load ptr_key = 0
         store ptr_key = random
         smp_mb()
         store have_filled_random_ptr_key
      
      				   load have_filled_random_ptr_key = true
      
      				    BAD BAD BAD! (you're so bad!)
      
      Because nothing prevents CPU1 from loading ptr_key before loading
      have_filled_random_ptr_key.
      
      But this race is very unlikely, but we can't keep an incorrect smp_mb() in
      place. Instead, replace the have_filled_random_ptr_key with a static_branch
      not_filled_random_ptr_key, that is initialized to true and changed to false
      when we get enough entropy. If the update happens in early boot, the
      static_key is updated immediately, otherwise it will have to wait till
      entropy is filled and this happens in an interrupt handler which can't
      enable a static_key, as that requires a preemptible context. In that case, a
      work_queue is used to enable it, as entropy already took too long to
      establish in the first place waiting a little more shouldn't hurt anything.
      
      The benefit of using the static key is that the unlikely branch in
      vsprintf() now becomes a nop.

           whole-volume callbacks and when callbacks actually get broken in
           response to a CB.CallBack op.
      
         - Fix some server/address rotation bugs, including giving up if we
           can't probe a server; giving up if a server says it doesn't have a
           volume, but there are more servers to try.

           CB.InitCallBackState3) to use a UUID if possible and to handle no

      tracing/x86/xen: Remove zero data size trace events trace_xen_mmu_flush_tlb{_all} · 45dd9b06
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored
      Doing an audit of trace events, I discovered two trace events in the xen
      subsystem that use a hack to create zero data size trace events. This is not
      what trace events are for. Trace events add memory footprint overhead, and
      if all you need to do is see if a function is hit or not, simply make that
      function noinline and use function tracer filtering.
      
      Worse yet, the hack used was:
      
       __array(char, x, 0)
      
      Which creates a static string of zero in length. There's assumptions about
      such constructs in ftrace that this is a dynamic string that is nul
      terminated. This is not the case with these tracepoints and can cause
      problems in various parts of ftrace.
      
      Nuke the trace events!

      The handling of CB.CallBack messages sent by the fileserver to the client
      is broken in that they are currently being processed after the reply has
      been transmitted.
      
      This is not what the fileserver expects, however.  It holds up change
      visibility until the reply comes so as to maintain cache coherency, and so
      expects the client to have to refetch the state on the affected files.
      
      Fix CB.CallBack handling to perform the callback break before sending the
      reply.
      
      The fileserver is free to hold up status fetches issued by other threads on
      the same client that occur in reponse to the callback until any pending
      changes have been committed.

      When a server record is destroyed, we want to send a message to the server
      telling it that we're giving up all the callbacks it has promised us.
      
      Apply two fixes to this:
      
       (1) Only send the FS.GiveUpAllCallBacks message if we actually got a
           callback from that server.  We assume this to be the case if we
           performed at least one successful FS operation on that server.
      
       (2) Send it to the address last used for that server rather than always
           picking the first address in the list (which might be unreachable).

      afs: Fix address list parsing · 01fd79e6
      David Howells authored
      The parsing of port specifiers in the address list obtained from the DNS
      resolution upcall doesn't work as in4_pton() and in6_pton() will fail on
      encountering an unexpected delimiter (in this case, the '+' marking the
      port number).  However, in*_pton() can't be given multiple specifiers.
      
      Fix this by finding the delimiter in advance and not relying on in*_pton()
      to find the end of the address for us.

      afs: Fix directory page locking · b61f7dcf
      David Howells authored
      The afs directory loading code (primarily afs_read_dir()) locks all the
      pages that hold a directory's content blob to defend against
      getdents/getdents races and getdents/lookup races where the competitors
      issue conflicting reads on the same data.  As the reads will complete
      consecutively, they may retrieve different versions of the data and
      one may overwrite the data that the other is busy parsing.
      
      Fix this by not locking the pages at all, but rather by turning the
      validation lock into an rwsem and getting an exclusive lock on it whilst
      reading the data or validating the attributes and a shared lock whilst
      parsing the data.  Sharing the attribute validation lock should be fine as
      the data fetch will retrieve the attributes also.
      
      The individual page locks aren't needed at all as the only place they're
      being used is to serialise data loading.
      
      Without this patch, the:
      
       	if (!test_bit(AFS_VNODE_DIR_VALID, &dvnode->flags)) {
      		...
      	}
      
      part of afs_read_dir() may be skipped, leaving the pages unlocked when we
      hit the success: clause - in which case we try to unlock the not-locked
      pages, leading to the following oops:
      
        page:ffffe38b405b4300 count:3 mapcount:0 mapping:ffff98156c83a978 index:0x0
