2014-01-12arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release()Peter Zijlstra
A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(), even though there is no need to order prior stores against later loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way to make use of them. This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release() primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional expense on most architectures. In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference() and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code might be so replaced. [Changelog by PaulMck] Reviewed-by: "Paul E.

2014-01-12arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.hPeter Zijlstra
We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of asm-generic/barrier.h. Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier definitions and fills out the rest with defaults. There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to their unconventional nop() implementation.

2014-01-12block: null_blk: fix queue leak inside removing deviceMing Lei
When queue_mode is NULL_Q_MQ and null_blk is being removed, blk_cleanup_queue() isn't called to cleanup queue, so the queue allocated won't be freed. This patch calls blk_cleanup_queue() for MQ to drain all pending requests first and release the reference counter of queue kobject, then blk_mq_free_queue() will be called in queue kobject's release handler when queue kobject's reference counter drops to zero.

2014-01-12perf: Introduce a flag to enable close-on-exec in perf_event_open()Yann Droneaud
Unlike recent modern userspace API such as: epoll_create1 (EPOLL_CLOEXEC), eventfd (EFD_CLOEXEC), fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC), inotify_init1 (IN_CLOEXEC), signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC), or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC), perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC (eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace. The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec. Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec, without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the associated race condition between the current thread and another thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

2014-01-12perf/x86: Fix active_entry initializationStephane Eranian
This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the struct perf_event active_entry field. It is defined inside an anonymous union and was initialized in perf_event_alloc() using INIT_LIST_HEAD(). However at that time, we do not know whether the event is going to use active_entry or hlist_entry (SW). Or at last, we don't want to make that determination there. The problem is that hlist and list_head are not initialized the same way. One is okay with NULL (from kzmalloc), the other needs to pointers to point to self. This patch resolves this problem by dropping the union. This will avoid problems later on, if someone starts using active_entry or hlist_entry without verifying that they actually overlap. This also solves the initialization problem.

2014-01-12sched: Calculate effective load even if local weight is 0Rik van Riel
Thomas Hellstrom bisected a regression where erratic 3D performance is experienced on virtual machines as measured by glxgears. It identified commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") as the problem which had modified the behaviour of effective_load. Effective load calculates the difference to the system-wide load if a scheduling entity was moved to another CPU. The task group is not heavier as a result of the move but overall system load can increase/decrease as a result of the change. Commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") changed effective_load to make it suitable for calculating if a particular NUMA node was compute overloaded. To reduce the cost of the function, it assumed that a current sched entity weight of 0 was uninteresting but that is not the case. wake_affine() uses a weight of 0 for sync wakeups on the grounds that it is assuming the waking task will sleep and not contribute to load in the near future. In this case, we still want to calculate the effective load of the sched entity hierarchy. As effective_load is no longer used by task_numa_compare since commit fb13c7ee (sched/numa: Use a system-wide search to find swap/migration candidates), this patch simply restores the historical behaviour.

895a068a524e ("kernfs: make kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated but not removed") added "struct kernfs_root *root = kernfs_root(kn);" at the head of the function; however, the parameter @kn is checked for later implying that the function may be called with NULL. This means that we may end up invoking kernfs_root() with NULL which will oops. None of the existing users invokes removal with NULL @kn, so this bug doesn't actually trigger. We can relocate kernfs_root() invocation after NULL check; however, allowing NULL param tends to cause more confusion than actually helping anything. As there's no existing user, let's remove the spurious NULL check. This bug was detected by smatch.

The MPIDR contains specific bitfields(MPIDR.Aff{2..0}) which uniquely identify a CPU, in addition to some non-identifying information and reserved bits. The ARM cpu binding defines the 'reg' property to only contain the affinity bits, and any cpu nodes with other bits set in their 'reg' entry are skipped. As such it is not necessary to mask the phys_id with MPIDR_HWID_BITMASK, and doing so could lead to matching erroneous CPU nodes in the device tree.

2014-01-10drivers/base: provide an infrastructure for componentised subsystemsRussell King
Subsystems such as ALSA, DRM and others require a single card-level device structure to represent a subsystem. However, firmware tends to describe the individual devices and the connections between them. Therefore, we need a way to gather up the individual component devices together, and indicate when we have all the component devices. We do this in DT by providing a "superdevice" node which specifies the components, eg: imx-drm { compatible = "fsl,drm"; crtcs = <&ipu1>; connectors = <&hdmi>; }; The superdevice is declared into the component support, along with the subcomponents. The superdevice receives callbacks to locate the subcomponents, and identify when all components are present. At this point, we bind the superdevice, which causes the appropriate subsystem to be initialised in the conventional way. When any of the components or superdevice are removed from the system, we unbind the superdevice, thereby taking the subsystem down.

2014-01-10s390: use device_remove_file_self() instead of device_schedule_callback()Tejun Heo
driver-core now supports synchrnous self-deletion of attributes and the asynchrnous removal mechanism is scheduled for removal. Use it instead of device_schedule_callback(). * Conversions in arch/s390/pci/pci_sysfs.c and drivers/s390/block/dcssblk.c are straightforward. * drivers/s390/cio/ccwgroup.c is a bit more tricky because ccwgroup_notifier() was (ab)using device_schedule_callback() to purely obtain a process context to kick off ungroup operation which may block from a notifier callback. Rename ccwgroup_ungroup_callback() to ccwgroup_ungroup() and make it take ccwgroup_device * instead. The new function is now called directly from ccwgroup_ungroup_store(). ccwgroup_notifier() chain is updated to explicitly bounce through ccwgroup_device->ungroup_work. This also removes possible failure from memory pressure. Only compile-tested.

2014-01-10kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappersTejun Heo
Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself is sitting on top of. This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous. While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation reliable. The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous. All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file operations, drops the active ref and deactivates using __kernfs_deactivate_self(), removes the self node, and restores active ref to the dead node using __kernfs_reactivate_self() so that the ref is balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't confuse the deactivation path. This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal deletion path will simply be ignored. This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations - even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 > delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is completed by one of the instances. v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it. Reported by kbuild test bot. v3: Updated to use __kernfs_{de|re}activate_self().

2014-01-10kernfs: implement kernfs_{de|re}activate[_self]()Tejun Heo
This patch implements four functions to manipulate deactivation state - deactivate, reactivate and the _self suffixed pair. A new fields kernfs_node->deact_depth is added so that concurrent and nested deactivations are handled properly. kernfs_node->hash is moved so that it's paired with the new field so that it doesn't increase the size of kernfs_node. A kernfs user's lock would normally nest inside active ref but during removal the user may want to perform kernfs_remove() while holding the said lock, which would introduce a reverse locking dependency. This function can be used to break such reverse dependency by allowing deactivation step to performed separately outside user's critical section. This will also be used implement kernfs_remove_self(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2014-01-10kernfs: make kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated but not ↵Tejun Heo
removed Currently, kernfs_get_active() fails if the target node is deactivated. This is fine as a node always gets removed after deactivation; however, we're gonna add reactivation so the assumption won't hold. It'd be incorrect for kernfs_get_active() to fail for a node which was deactivated only temporarily. This patch makes kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated but not removed. If the node gets reactivated (not yet implemented), it will be retried and succeed. If the node gets removed, it will be woken up and fail.

2014-01-10kernfs: remove kernfs_addrm_cxtTejun Heo
kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were added because there were operations which should be performed outside kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes. The necessary operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish() performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path too. This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove() and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish(). * kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release the parent's active ref and kernfs_mutex itself. kernfs_get/put_active() and kernfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from all users. * __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining it to kernfs_addrm_cxt. Its callers are updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around it. v2: Updated to fit the v2 restructuring of removal path.

2014-01-10kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from __kernfs_remove()Tejun Heo
kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion before returning. It can be fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from kernfs_addrm_finish() to __kernfs_remove(). The function may be called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm. We end up dropping kernfs_mutex in the removal loop and the node may be removed inbetween by someone else. kernfs_unlink_sibling() is updated to test whether the node has already been removed and return accordingly. __kernfs_remove() in turn performs post-unlinking cleanup only if it actually unlinked the node. KERNFS_HAS_MMAP test is moved out of the unmap function into __kernfs_remove() so that we don't unlock kernfs_mutex unnecessarily. While at it, drop the now meaningless "bin" qualifier from the function name. v2: Rewritten to fit the v2 restructuring of removal path. HAS_MMAP test relocated.

2014-01-10kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature returnTejun Heo
The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its descendants. While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult to enforce. It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is accessible. The current behavior in such situations is broken. Whoever enters removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then deactivates. Following removers either return as soon as it notices that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it has already been removed from the hierarchy. In both cases, the following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one. This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules. * When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base ref. * Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked until the target node is fully deactivated and removed. To achieve the above, removal path now first deactivates the subtree, drains it and then unlinks one-by-one. __kernfs_deactivate() is called directly from __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs kernfs_mutex for each descendant to drain active refs. As this means that multiple removers can enter __kernfs_deactivate() for the same node, the function is updated so that it can handle multiple deactivators of the same node - only one actually deactivates but all wait till drain completion. The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained. Combined with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed. v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate(). This is to allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later. Root node removal was broken in v1 patch. Fixed.

2014-01-10kernfs: remove KERNFS_REMOVEDTejun Heo
KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or renaming it; however, its role overlaps those of deactivation and removal from rbtree. It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation - KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new file operations. There's no reason to have them separate making things more complex than necessary. KERNFS_REMOVED is also used to decide whether a node is still visible to vfs layer, which is rather redundant as equivalent determination can be made by testing whether the node is on its parent's children rbtree or not. This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED. * Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life deactivated. This means that we now use both atomic_add() and atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN. The compiler generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation can't be represented as a positive number. Nothing is actually broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs which negates the subtrahend.. * KERNFS_REMOVED tests in add and rename paths are replaced with kernfs_get/put_active() of the target nodes. Due to the way the add path is structured now, active ref handling is done in the callers of kernfs_add_one(). This will be consolidated up later. * kernfs_remove_one() is updated to deactivate instead of setting KERNFS_REMOVED. This removes deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(), which is now renamed to kernfs_drain(). * kernfs_dop_revalidate() now tests RB_EMPTY_NODE(&kn->rb) instead of KERNFS_REMOVED and KERNFS_REMOVED test in kernfs_dir_pos() is dropped. A node which is removed from the children rbtree is not included in the iteration in the first place. This means that a node may be visible through vfs a bit longer - it's now also visible after deactivation until the actual removal. This slightly enlarged window difference doesn't make any difference to the userland. * Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with checks on the active ref. * Some comment style updates in the affected area. v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring. kernfs_active() dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead.

2014-01-10kernfs: remove KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and add kernfs_lockdep()Tejun Heo
There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask. The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active() while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate(). While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it needlessly diverges code paths. Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and use KERNFS_LOCKDEP in kernfs_deactivate() too. While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled out when not enabled.

2014-01-10kernfs: replace kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitqTejun Heo
kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion from kernfs_put_active() to kernfs_deactivate(). We now allow multiple racing removals of the same node and the current removal scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return before the node is properly deactivated if it races against another removal. The removal path will be restructured to address the issue. To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters, this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq. This makes deactivation event notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off kernfs_node.

2014-01-10kernfs: fix get_active failure handling in kernfs_seq_*()Tejun Heo
When kernfs_seq_start() fails to obtain an active reference, it returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). kernfs_seq_stop() is then invoked with the error pointer value; however, it still proceeds to invoke kernfs_put_active() on the node leading to unbalanced put. If kernfs_seq_stop() is called even after active ref failure, it should skip invocation of @ops->seq_stop() and put_active. Unfortunately, this is a bit complicated because active ref failure isn't the only thing which may fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). @ops->seq_start/next() may also fail with the error value and kernfs_seq_stop() doesn't have a way to tell apart those failures. Work it around by factoring out the active part of kernfs_seq_stop() into kernfs_seq_stop_active() and invoking it directly if @ops->seq_start/next() fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and updating kernfs_seq_stop() to skip kernfs_seq_stop_active() on ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). This is a bit nasty but ensures that the active put is skipped iff get_active failed in kernfs_seq_start().
