2012-07-20UBIFS: remove invalid reference to list iterator variableJulia Lawall
If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head, and not a meaningful structure. Thus this value should not be used after the end of the iterator. Replace a field access from orphan by NULL in two places. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ identifier c; expression E; iterator name list_for_each_entry; statement S; @@ list_for_each_entry(c,...) { ... when != break; when forall when strict } ... ( c = E | *c ) // </smpl> Artem: fortunately, this did not cause any issues because we iterate the orphan list using the elements count, so we never dereferenced the corrupted pointer. This is why I do not send this patch to -stable. But otherwise - well spotted! Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>
2012-07-20UBIFS: simplify reply code a bitArtem Bityutskiy
In the log reply code we assume that 'c->lhead_offs' is known and may be non-zero, which is not the case because we do not store it in the master node and have to find out by scanning on every mount. Knowing this fact allows us to simplify the log scanning loop a bit and remove a couple of unneeded local variables. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>
2012-07-20UBIFS: add debugfs knob to switch to R/O modeArtem Bityutskiy
This patch adds another debugfs knob which switches UBIFS to R/O mode. I needed it while trying to reproduce the 'first log node is not CS node' bug. Without this debugfs knob you have to perform a power cut to repruduce the bug. The knob is named 'ro_error' and all it does is it sets the 'ro_error' UBIFS flag which makes UBIFS disallow any further writes - even write-back will fail with -EROFS. Useful for debugging.

2012-07-20UBIFS: fix a bug in empty space fix-upArtem Bityutskiy
UBIFS has a feature called "empty space fix-up" which is a quirk to work-around limitations of dumb flasher programs. Namely, of those flashers that are unable to skip NAND pages full of 0xFFs while flashing, resulting in empty space at the end of half-filled eraseblocks to be unusable for UBIFS. This feature is relatively new (introduced in v3.0). The fix-up routine (fixup_free_space()) is executed only once at the very first mount if the superblock has the 'space_fixup' flag set (can be done with -F option of mkfs.ubifs). It basically reads all the UBIFS data and metadata and writes it back to the same LEB. The routine assumes the image is pristine and does not have anything in the journal. There was a bug in 'fixup_free_space()' where it fixed up the log incorrectly. All but one LEB of the log of a pristine file-system are empty. And one contains just a commit start node. And 'fixup_free_space()' just unmapped this LEB, which resulted in wiping the commit start node. As a result, some users were unable to mount the file-system next time with the following symptom: UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first log node at LEB 3:0 is not CS node UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: log error detected while replaying the log at LEB 3:0 The root-cause of this bug was that 'fixup_free_space()' wrongly assumed that the beginning of empty space in the log head (c->lhead_offs) was known on mount. However, it is not the case - it was always 0. UBIFS does not store in it the master node and finds out by scanning the log on every mount. The fix is simple - just pass commit start node size instead of 0 to 'fixup_leb()'.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Enable FCoE FSO and CRC offloads based on CAPABLE instead of ENABLED flagAlexander Duyck
Instead of only setting the FCOE segmentation offload and CRC offload flags if we enable FCoE, we could just set them always since there are no modifications needed to the hardware or adapter FCoE structure in order to use these features. The advantage to this is that if FCoE enablement fails, for example because SR-IOV was enabled on 82599, we will still have use of the FCoE segmentation offload and Tx/Rx CRC offloads which should still help to improve the FCoE performance.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Only enable anti-spoof on VF poolsAlexander Duyck
The current logic is enabling anti-spoof on all pools and then clearing anti-spoof on just the first PF pool. The correct approach is to only set anti-spoof on the VF pools and to leave all of the PF pools unchecked. This allows for items such as FCoE to use adjacent pools within the PF for transmit and receive queues without the traffic being blocked by this security feature.

This change corrects an issue in which an FCoE enabled adapter was always setting the FCoE SAN MAC MPSAR register to 0x1. This results in the first VF being assigned the SAN MAC address in the case of SR-IOV and as such is incorrect.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Make FCoE allocation and configuration closer to how rings workAlexander Duyck
This patch changes the behavior of the FCoE configuration so that it is much closer to how the main body of the ixgbe driver works for ring allocation. The first piece is the ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_enable/disable calls. These allocate the percpu values and if successful set the fcoe_ddp_xid value indicating that we can support DDP. The next piece is the ixgbe_setup/free_ddp_resources calls. These are called on open/close and will allocate and free the DMA pools. Finally ixgbe_configure_fcoe is now just register configuration. It can go through and enable the registers for the FCoE redirection offload, and FIP configuration without any interference from the DDP pool allocation. The net result of all this is two fold. First it adds a certain amount of exception handling. So for example if ixgbe_setup_fcoe_resources fails we will actually generate an error in open and refuse to bring up the interface. Secondly it provides a much more graceful failure case than the previous model which would skip setting up the registers for FCoE on failure to allocate DDP resources leaving no Rx functionality enabled instead of just disabling DDP.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Merge all FCoE percpu values into a single structureAlexander Duyck
This change merges the 2 statistics values for noddp and noddp_ext_buff and the dma_pool into a single structure that can be allocated per CPU. The advantages to this are several fold. First we only need to do one alloc_percpu call now instead of 3, so that means less overhead for handling memory allocation failures. Secondly in the case of ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_setup we only need to call get_cpu once which makes things a bit cleaner since we can drop a put_cpu() from the exception path.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Use VMDq offset to indicate the default poolAlexander Duyck
This change makes it so that we can use the VMDq ring feature offset value to determine the default pool instead of using num_vfs. The reason for this change is to avoid issues should we fail to allocate vfinfo but have pre-existing VFs. What should happen in this case is that num_vfs will go to 0, but the VMDq offset will contain the location of the first PF pool.

2012-07-19xen PVonHVM: move shared_info to MMIO before kexecOlaf Hering
Currently kexec in a PVonHVM guest fails with a triple fault because the new kernel overwrites the shared info page. The exact failure depends on the size of the kernel image. This patch moves the pfn from RAM into MMIO space before the kexec boot. The pfn containing the shared_info is located somewhere in RAM. This will cause trouble if the current kernel is doing a kexec boot into a new kernel. The new kernel (and its startup code) can not know where the pfn is, so it can not reserve the page. The hypervisor will continue to update the pfn, and as a result memory corruption occours in the new kernel. One way to work around this issue is to allocate a page in the xen-platform pci device's BAR memory range. But pci init is done very late and the shared_info page is already in use very early to read the pvclock. So moving the pfn from RAM to MMIO is racy because some code paths on other vcpus could access the pfn during the small window when the old pfn is moved to the new pfn. There is even a small window were the old pfn is not backed by a mfn, and during that time all reads return -1. Because it is not known upfront where the MMIO region is located it can not be used right from the start in xen_hvm_init_shared_info. To minimise trouble the move of the pfn is done shortly before kexec. This does not eliminate the race because all vcpus are still online when the syscore_ops will be called. But hopefully there is no work pending at this point in time. Also the syscore_op is run last which reduces the risk further.

While debugging kexec issues in a PVonHVM guest I modified xen_hvm_platform() to return false to disable all PV drivers.

2012-07-19xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernelOlaf Hering
Add xs_reset_watches function to shutdown watches from old kernel after kexec boot. The old kernel does not unregister all watches in the shutdown path. They are still active, the double registration can not be detected by the new kernel. When the watches fire, unexpected events will arrive and the xenwatch thread will crash (jumps to NULL). An orderly reboot of a hvm guest will destroy the entire guest with all its resources (including the watches) before it is rebuilt from scratch, so the missing unregister is not an issue in that case. With this change the xenstored is instructed to wipe all active watches for the guest. However, a patch for xenstored is required so that it accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset 23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated kexec boots will fail.

2012-07-19xen/mm: do direct hypercall in xen_set_pte() if batching is unavailableDavid Vrabel
In xen_set_pte() if batching is unavailable (because the caller is in an interrupt context such as handling a page fault) it would fall back to using native_set_pte() and trapping and emulating the PTE write. On 32-bit guests this requires two traps for each PTE write (one for each dword of the PTE). Instead, do one mmu_update hypercall directly. During construction of the initial page tables, continue to use native_set_pte() because most of the PTEs being set are in writable and unpinned pages (see phys_pmd_init() in arch/x86/mm/init_64.c) and using a hypercall for this is very expensive.

there are 3 funcs which need to be _initcalled in a logic sequence: 1. xen_late_init_mcelog 2. mcheck_init_device 3. threshold_init_device xen_late_init_mcelog must register xen_mce_chrdev_device before native mce_chrdev_device registration if running under xen platform; mcheck_init_device should be inited before threshold_init_device to initialize mce_device, otherwise a a NULL ptr dereference will cause panic. so we use following _initcalls 1. device_initcall(xen_late_init_mcelog); 2. device_initcall_sync(mcheck_init_device); 3. late_initcall(threshold_init_device); when running under xen, the initcall order is 1,2,3; on baremetal, we skip 1 and we do only 2 and 3.

2012-07-19xen/mce: Add mcelog support for Xen platformLiu, Jinsong
When MCA error occurs, it would be handled by Xen hypervisor first, and then the error information would be sent to initial domain for logging. This patch gets error information from Xen hypervisor and convert Xen format error into Linux format mcelog. This logic is basically self-contained, not touching other kernel components. By using tools like mcelog tool users could read specific error information, like what they did under native Linux.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - cookie-less modeYuchung Cheng
In trusted networks, e.g., intranet, data-center, the client does not need to use Fast Open cookie to mitigate DoS attacks. In cookie-less mode, sendmsg() with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will send SYN-data regardless of cookie availability.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - detecting SYN-data dropsYuchung Cheng
On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options, Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance. The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables Fast Open temporarily. Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but it behaves as connect() then write().

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN)Yuchung Cheng
sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2) and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to send data in the opening SYN packet. For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails. For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect(). Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application should only use this flag on new sockets. The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

On receiving the SYN-ACK after SYN-data, the client needs to a) update the cached MSS and cookie (if included in SYN-ACK) b) retransmit the data not yet acknowledged by the SYN-ACK in the final ACK of the handshake.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - sending SYN-dataYuchung Cheng
This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch). The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative, the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations). To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP handshake. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open baseYuchung Cheng
This patch impelements the common code for both the client and server. 1. TCP Fast Open option processing. Since Fast Open does not have an option number assigned by IANA yet, it shares the experiment option code 254 by implementing draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options with a 16 bits magic number 0xF989. This enables global experiments without clashing the scarce(2) experimental options available for TCP. When the draft status becomes standard (maybe), the client should switch to the new option number assigned while the server supports both numbers for transistion. 2. The new sysctl tcp_fastopen 3.

2012-07-19mlx4_en: map entire pages to increase throughputThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo
In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine. One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver. This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we start the refill. We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were allocated. This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.
