2017-05-08ubi: Add debugfs file for tracking PEB stateBen Shelton
Add a file under debugfs to allow easy access to the erase count for each physical erase block on an UBI device. This is useful when debugging data integrity issues with UBIFS on NAND flash devices. Signed-off-by: Ben Shelton <ben.shelton@ni.com> Signed-off-by: Zach Brown <zach.brown@ni.com> v2: * If ubi_io_is_bad eraseblk_count_seq_show just returns the err. * if ubi->lookuptbl returns null, its no longer treated as an error instead info for that block is not printeded * Removed check for UBI_MAX_ERASECOUNTER since it is impossible to hit * Removed block state from print, if a block is printed then it is good and if it is not printed, then it is bad. v3: * Remove errant ! symbol from if statement checking if erase count is valid.

2017-05-08ubi: fastmap: Fix slab corruptionRabin Vincent
Booting with UBI fastmap and SLUB debugging enabled results in the following splats. The problem is that ubi_scan_fastmap() moves the fastmap blocks from the scan_ai (allocated in scan_fast()) to the ai allocated in ubi_attach(). This results in two problems: - When the scan_ai is freed, aebs which were allocated from its slab cache are still in use. - When the other ai is being destroyed in destroy_ai(), the arguments to kmem_cache_free() call are incorrect since aebs on its ->fastmap list were allocated with a slab cache from a differnt ai. Fix this by making a copy of the aebs in ubi_scan_fastmap() instead of moving them. ============================================================================= BUG ubi_aeb_slab_cache (Not tainted): Objects remaining in ubi_aeb_slab_cache on __kmem_cache_shutdown() ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO: Slab 0xbfd2da3c objects=17 used=1 fp=0xb33d7748 flags=0x40000080 CPU: 1 PID: 118 Comm: ubiattach Tainted: G B 4.9.15 #3 [<80111910>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<8010d498>] (show_stack+0x18/0x1c) [<8010d498>] (show_stack) from [<804a3274>] (dump_stack+0xb4/0xe0) [<804a3274>] (dump_stack) from [<8026c47c>] (slab_err+0x78/0x88) [<8026c47c>] (slab_err) from [<802735bc>] (__kmem_cache_shutdown+0x180/0x3e0) [<802735bc>] (__kmem_cache_shutdown) from [<8024e13c>] (shutdown_cache+0x1c/0x60) [<8024e13c>] (shutdown_cache) from [<8024ed64>] (kmem_cache_destroy+0x19c/0x20c) [<8024ed64>] (kmem_cache_destroy) from [<8057cc14>] (destroy_ai+0x1dc/0x1e8) [<8057cc14>] (destroy_ai) from [<8057f04c>] (ubi_attach+0x3f4/0x450) [<8057f04c>] (ubi_attach) from [<8056fe70>] (ubi_attach_mtd_dev+0x60c/0xff8) [<8056fe70>] (ubi_attach_mtd_dev) from [<80571d78>] (ctrl_cdev_ioctl+0x110/0x2b8) [<80571d78>] (ctrl_cdev_ioctl) from [<8029c77c>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0xac/0xa00) [<8029c77c>] (do_vfs_ioctl) from [<8029d10c>] (SyS_ioctl+0x3c/0x64) [<8029d10c>] (SyS_ioctl) from [<80108860>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c) INFO: Object 0xb33d7e88 @offset=3720 INFO: Allocated in scan_peb+0x608/0x81c age=72 cpu=1 pid=118 kmem_cache_alloc+0x3b0/0x43c scan_peb+0x608/0x81c ubi_attach+0x124/0x450 ubi_attach_mtd_dev+0x60c/0xff8 ctrl_cdev_ioctl+0x110/0x2b8 do_vfs_ioctl+0xac/0xa00 SyS_ioctl+0x3c/0x64 ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c kmem_cache_destroy ubi_aeb_slab_cache: Slab cache still has objects CPU: 1 PID: 118 Comm: ubiattach Tainted: G B 4.9.15 #3 [<80111910>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<8010d498>] (show_stack+0x18/0x1c) [<8010d498>] (show_stack) from [<804a3274>] (dump_stack+0xb4/0xe0) [<804a3274>] (dump_stack) from [<8024ed80>] (kmem_cache_destroy+0x1b8/0x20c) [<8024ed80>] (kmem_cache_destroy) from [<8057cc14>] (destroy_ai+0x1dc/0x1e8) [<8057cc14>] (destroy_ai) from [<8057f04c>] (ubi_attach+0x3f4/0x450) [<8057f04c>] (ubi_attach) from [<8056fe70>] (ubi_attach_mtd_dev+0x60c/0xff8) [<8056fe70>] (ubi_attach_mtd_dev) from [<80571d78>] (ctrl_cdev_ioctl+0x110/0x2b8) [<80571d78>] (ctrl_cdev_ioctl) from [<8029c77c>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0xac/0xa00) [<8029c77c>] (do_vfs_ioctl) from [<8029d10c>] (SyS_ioctl+0x3c/0x64) [<8029d10c>] (SyS_ioctl) from [<80108860>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c) cache_from_obj: Wrong slab cache. ubi_aeb_slab_cache but object is from ubi_aeb_slab_cache ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 118 at mm/slab.h:354 kmem_cache_free+0x39c/0x450 Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 118 Comm: ubiattach Tainted: G B 4.9.15 #3 [<80111910>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<8010d498>] (show_stack+0x18/0x1c) [<8010d498>] (show_stack) from [<804a3274>] (dump_stack+0xb4/0xe0) [<804a3274>] (dump_stack) from [<80120e40>] (__warn+0xf4/0x10c) [<80120e40>] (__warn) from [<80120f20>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x28/0x30) [<80120f20>] (warn_slowpath_null) from [<80271fe0>] (kmem_cache_free+0x39c/0x450) [<80271fe0>] (kmem_cache_free) from [<8057cb88>] (destroy_ai+0x150/0x1e8) [<8057cb88>] (destroy_ai) from [<8057ef1c>] (ubi_attach+0x2c4/0x450) [<8057ef1c>] (ubi_attach) from [<8056fe70>] (ubi_attach_mtd_dev+0x60c/0xff8) [<8056fe70>] (ubi_attach_mtd_dev) from [<80571d78>] (ctrl_cdev_ioctl+0x110/0x2b8) [<80571d78>] (ctrl_cdev_ioctl) from [<8029c77c>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0xac/0xa00) [<8029c77c>] (do_vfs_ioctl) from [<8029d10c>] (SyS_ioctl+0x3c/0x64) [<8029d10c>] (SyS_ioctl) from [<80108860>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c) ---[ end trace 2bd8396277fd0a0b ]--- ============================================================================= BUG ubi_aeb_slab_cache (Tainted: G B W ): page slab pointer corrupt. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO: Allocated in scan_peb+0x608/0x81c age=104 cpu=1 pid=118 kmem_cache_alloc+0x3b0/0x43c scan_peb+0x608/0x81c ubi_attach+0x124/0x450 ubi_attach_mtd_dev+0x60c/0xff8 ctrl_cdev_ioctl+0x110/0x2b8 do_vfs_ioctl+0xac/0xa00 SyS_ioctl+0x3c/0x64 ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c INFO: Slab 0xbfd2da3c objects=17 used=1 fp=0xb33d7748 flags=0x40000081 INFO: Object 0xb33d7e88 @offset=3720 fp=0xb33d7da0 Redzone b33d7e80: cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc ........

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: - Add BFQ IO scheduler under the new blk-mq scheduling framework. BFQ was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness. From Paolo. - Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler, using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar. - A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life times, solving various problems with hot removal. - A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a 'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block device. - A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef. - A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for more than a decade. - Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar. - blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is marked experimental for now. - Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size IO. - A few fixes for opal, from Scott. - A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics. From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart. - A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from the blk-mq debugfs support. - A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES. - A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also shrinks the size of struct request a bit. - Removal of mg_disk and hd (sorry Linus) by Christoph. The former was never used by platforms, and the latter has outlived it's usefulness. - Various little bug fixes and cleanups from a wide variety of folks. * 'for-4.12/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (329 commits) block: hide badblocks attribute by default blk-mq: unify hctx delay_work and run_work block: add kblock_mod_delayed_work_on() blk-mq: unify hctx delayed_run_work and run_work nbd: fix use after free on module unload MAINTAINERS: bfq: Add Paolo as maintainer for the BFQ I/O scheduler blk-mq-sched: alloate reserved tags out of normal pool mtip32xx: use runtime tag to initialize command header scsi: Implement blk_mq_ops.show_rq() blk-mq: Add blk_mq_ops.show_rq() blk-mq: Show operation, cmd_flags and rq_flags names blk-mq: Make blk_flags_show() callers append a newline character blk-mq: Move the "state" debugfs attribute one level down blk-mq: Unregister debugfs attributes earlier blk-mq: Only unregister hctxs for which registration succeeded blk-mq-debugfs: Rename functions for registering and unregistering the mq directory blk-mq: Let blk_mq_debugfs_register() look up the queue name blk-mq: Register <dev>/queue/mq after having registered <dev>/queue ide-pm: always pass 0 error to ide_complete_rq in ide_do_devset ide-pm: always pass 0 error to __blk_end_request_all ..

2017-03-30ubi/upd: Always flush after prepared for an updateSebastian Siewior
In commit 6afaf8a484cb ("UBI: flush wl before clearing update marker") I managed to trigger and fix a similar bug. Now here is another version of which I assumed it wouldn't matter back then but it turns out UBI has a check for it and will error out like this: |ubi0 warning: validate_vid_hdr: inconsistent used_ebs |ubi0 error: validate_vid_hdr: inconsistent VID header at PEB 592 All you need to trigger this is? "ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_0 file" + a powercut in the middle of the operation. ubi_start_update() sets the update-marker and puts all EBs on the erase list. After that userland can proceed to write new data while the old EB aren't erased completely. A powercut at this point is usually not that much of a tragedy. UBI won't give read access to the static volume because it has the update marker. It will most likely set the corrupted flag because it misses some EBs. So we are all good. Unless the size of the image that has been written differs from the old image in the magnitude of at least one EB. In that case UBI will find two different values for `used_ebs' and refuse to attach the image with the error message mentioned above. So in order not to get in the situation, the patch will ensure that we wait until everything is removed before it tries to write any data. The alternative would be to detect such a case and remove all EBs at the attached time after we processed the volume-table and see the update-marker set. The patch looks bigger and I doubt it is worth it since usually the write() will wait from time to time for a new EB since usually there not that many spare EB that can be used.

2017-03-21mtd: utilize new cdev_device_add helper functionLogan Gunthorpe
This is not as straightforward a conversion as the others in this series. These drivers did not originally make use of kobj.parent so they likely suffered from a use after free bug if someone unregistered the devices while they are being used. In order to make the conversions, switch from device_register to device_initialize / cdev_device_add. In build.c, this patch unwinds a complicated mess of extra get_device/put_devices and reference tracking by moving device_initialize early in the attach process. Then it always uses put_device and instead of using device_unregister and extra get_devices everywhere we just use cdev_device_del and one put_device once everything is completely done. This simplifies things dramatically and makes it easier to reason about. In vmt.c, the patch pushes device initialization up to the beginning of the device creation and then that function only needs to use put_device in the error path which simplifies things a good deal.

2017-03-02statx: Add a system call to make enhanced file info availableDavid Howells
Add a system call to make extended file information available, including file creation and some attribute flags where available through the underlying filesystem. The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*() function. Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage. ======== OVERVIEW ======== The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall with an extended stat structure. A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The following have been included: (1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large. (2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for future expansion. (3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an __s64). (4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime). This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could be exported by NFSD [Steve French]. (5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC). (6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust] (AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC). And the following have been left out for future extension: (7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh Kumar]. Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead. (There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since not all filesystems do this the same way). (8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen) [Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert]. (9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers [Bernd Schubert]. (This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to whether it's a security hole or not). (10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger]. (No particular data were offered, but things like last backup timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come into this category). (11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't exist or are fabricated locally... (This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea for this). (12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in struct xstat [Steve French]. (Deferred to fsinfo). (13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French]. (Deferred to fsinfo). (14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags. Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4 define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too). (Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't be exposed through statx this way). (15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer, Michael Kerrisk]. (Deferred, probably to fsinfo. Finding out if there's an ACL or seclabal might require extra filesystem operations). (16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner]. (A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for this - if there proves to be a need). (17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this. =============== NEW SYSTEM CALL =============== The new system call is: int ret = statx(int dfd, const char *filename, unsigned int flags, unsigned int mask, struct statx *buffer); The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a similar way to fstatat(). There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd. Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically only affects network filesystems): (1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this respect. (2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to occur to get the timestamps correct. (3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a network filesystem. The resulting values should be considered approximate. mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to get the basic set returned by stat(). It should be noted that asking for more information may entail extra I/O operations. buffer points to the destination for the data. This must be 256 bytes in size. ====================== MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD ====================== The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute set: struct statx_timestamp { __s64 tv_sec; __s32 tv_nsec; __s32 __reserved; }; struct statx { __u32 stx_mask; __u32 stx_blksize; __u64 stx_attributes; __u32 stx_nlink; __u32 stx_uid; __u32 stx_gid; __u16 stx_mode; __u16 __spare0[1]; __u64 stx_ino; __u64 stx_size; __u64 stx_blocks; __u64 __spare1[1]; struct statx_timestamp stx_atime; struct statx_timestamp stx_btime; struct statx_timestamp stx_ctime; struct statx_timestamp stx_mtime; __u32 stx_rdev_major; __u32 stx_rdev_minor; __u32 stx_dev_major; __u32 stx_dev_minor; __u64 __spare2[14]; }; The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are: STATX_TYPE Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT STATX_MODE Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT STATX_NLINK Want/got stx_nlink STATX_UID Want/got stx_uid STATX_GID Want/got stx_gid STATX_ATIME Want/got stx_atime{,_ns} STATX_MTIME Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns} STATX_CTIME Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns} STATX_INO Want/got stx_ino STATX_SIZE Want/got stx_size STATX_BLOCKS Want/got stx_blocks STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct] STATX_BTIME Want/got stx_btime{,_ns} STATX_ALL [All currently available stuff] stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be placed. Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution. Note that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond fields will also be negative if not zero. The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does. The following attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value: STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED File is compressed by the fs STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE File is marked immutable STATX_ATTR_APPEND File is append-only STATX_ATTR_NODUMP File is not to be dumped STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED File requires key to decrypt in fs Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by: KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS [Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed through this interface?] New flags include: STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT Object is an automount trigger These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially, depending on what they are. Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes: (0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize. These are local system information and are always available. (1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino, stx_size, stx_blocks. These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they actually have valid values. If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server, unless as a byproduct of updating something requested. If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask, even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned value will be a fabrication. Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for instance Windows reparse points. (2) stx_rdev_*. This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0. (3) stx_btime. Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist. ======= TESTING ======= The following test program can be used to test the statx system call: samples/statx/test-statx.c Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine. The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled. Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to another FSID. Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.

2016-10-02UBI: introduce the VID buffer conceptBoris Brezillon
Currently, all VID headers are allocated and freed using the ubi_zalloc_vid_hdr() and ubi_free_vid_hdr() function. These functions make sure to align allocation on ubi->vid_hdr_alsize and adjust the vid_hdr pointer to match the ubi->vid_hdr_shift requirements. This works fine, but is a bit convoluted. Moreover, the future introduction of LEB consolidation (needed to support MLC/TLC NANDs) will allows a VID buffer to contain more than one VID header. Hence the creation of a ubi_vid_io_buf struct to attach extra information to the VID header. We currently only store the actual pointer of the underlying buffer, but will soon add the number of VID headers contained in the buffer.

2016-07-29ubi: Be more paranoid while seaching for the most recent FastmapRichard Weinberger
Since PEB erasure is asynchornous it can happen that there is more than one Fastmap on the MTD. This is fine because the attach logic will pick the Fastmap data structure with the highest sequence number. On a not so well configured MTD stack spurious ECC errors are common. Causes can be different, bad hardware, wrong operating modes, etc... If the most current Fastmap renders bad due to ECC errors UBI might pick an older Fastmap to attach from. While this can only happen on an anyway broken setup it will show completely different sympthoms and makes finding the root cause much more difficult. So, be debug friendly and fall back to scanning mode of we're facing an ECC error while scanning for Fastmap. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

2016-07-29ubi: Make volume resize power cut awareRichard Weinberger
When the volume resize operation shrinks a volume, LEBs will be unmapped. Since unmapping will not erase these LEBs immediately we have to wait for that operation to finish. Otherwise in case of a power cut right after writing the new volume table the UBI attach process can find more LEBs than the volume table knows. This will render the UBI image unattachable. Fix this issue by waiting for erase to complete and write the new volume table afterward.
