2018-07-02scsi: klist: Make it safe to use klists in atomic contextBart Van Assche
In the scsi_transport_srp implementation it cannot be avoided to iterate over a klist from atomic context when using the legacy block layer instead of blk-mq. Hence this patch that makes it safe to use klists in atomic context. This patch avoids that lockdep reports the following: WARNING: SOFTIRQ-safe -> SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order detected Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&(&k->k_lock)->rlock); local_irq_disable(); lock(&(&q->__queue_lock)->rlock); lock(&(&k->k_lock)->rlock); <Interrupt> lock(&(&q->__queue_lock)->rlock); stack backtrace: Workqueue: kblockd blk_timeout_work Call Trace: dump_stack+0xa4/0xf5 check_usage+0x6e6/0x700 __lock_acquire+0x185d/0x1b50 lock_acquire+0xd2/0x260 _raw_spin_lock+0x32/0x50 klist_next+0x47/0x190 device_for_each_child+0x8e/0x100 srp_timed_out+0xaf/0x1d0 [scsi_transport_srp] scsi_times_out+0xd4/0x410 [scsi_mod] blk_rq_timed_out+0x36/0x70 blk_timeout_work+0x1b5/0x220 process_one_work+0x4fe/0xad0 worker_thread+0x63/0x5a0 kthread+0x1c1/0x1e0 ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30 See also commit c9ddf73476ff ("scsi: scsi_transport_srp: Fix shost to rport translation").

2016-02-07klist: fix starting point removed bug in klist iteratorsJames Bottomley
The starting node for a klist iteration is often passed in from somewhere way above the klist infrastructure, meaning there's no guarantee the node is still on the list. We've seen this in SCSI where we use bus_find_device() to iterate through a list of devices. In the face of heavy hotplug activity, the last device returned by bus_find_device() can be removed before the next call. This leads to Dec 3 13:22:02 localhost kernel: WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 28073 at include/linux/kref.h:47 klist_iter_init_node+0x3d/0x50() Dec 3 13:22:02 localhost kernel: Modules linked in: scsi_debug x86_pkg_temp_thermal kvm_intel kvm irqbypass crc32c_intel joydev iTCO_wdt dcdbas ipmi_devintf acpi_power_meter iTCO_vendor_support ipmi_si imsghandler pcspkr wmi acpi_cpufreq tpm_tis tpm shpchp lpc_ich mfd_core nfsd nfs_acl lockd grace sunrpc tg3 ptp pps_core Dec 3 13:22:02 localhost kernel: CPU: 2 PID: 28073 Comm: cat Not tainted 4.4.0-rc1+ #2 Dec 3 13:22:02 localhost kernel: Hardware name: Dell Inc.

It can actually occur in any hotplug system which has a device finder and a starting device. We can fix this globally by making sure the starting node for klist_iter_init_node() is actually a member of the list before using it (and by starting from the beginning if it isn't).

2013-05-21klist: del waiter from klist_remove_waiters before wakeup waitting processwang, biao
There is a race between klist_remove and klist_release. klist_remove uses a local var waiter saved on stack. When klist_release calls wake_up_process(waiter->process) to wake up the waiter, waiter might run immediately and reuse the stack. Then, klist_release calls list_del(&waiter->list) to change previous wait data and cause prior waiter thread corrupt. The patch fixes it against kernel 3.9.

2009-01-06driver core: Remove completion from struct klist_nodeMatthew Wilcox
Removing the completion from klist_node reduces its size from 64 bytes to 28 on x86-64. To maintain the semantics of klist_remove(), we add a single list of klist nodes which are pending deletion and scan them.

2008-10-09klist: don't iterate over deleted entriesTejun Heo
A klist entry is kept on the list till all its current iterations are finished; however, a new iteration after deletion also iterates over deleted entries as long as their reference count stays above zero. This causes problems for cases where there are users which iterate over the list while synchronized against list manipulations and natuarally expect already deleted entries to not show up during iteration. This patch implements dead flag which gets set on deletion so that iteration can skip already deleted entries. The dead flag piggy backs on the lowest bit of knode->n_klist and only visible to klist implementation proper. While at it, drop klist_iter->i_head as it's redundant and doesn't offer anything in semantics or performance wise as klist_iter->i_klist is dereferenced on every iteration anyway.

2006-09-25Driver core: Don't call put methods while holding a spinlockAlan Stern
The klist utility routines currently call _put methods while holding a spinlock. This is of course illegal; a put routine could try to unregister a device and hence need to sleep. No problems have arisen until now because in many cases klist removals were done synchronously, so the _put methods were never actually used. In other cases we may simply have been lucky. This patch (as784) reworks the klist routines so that _put methods are called only _after_ the klist's spinlock has been released.

2006-01-04[PATCH] klist: Fix broken kref counting in find functionsFrank Pavlic
The klist reference counting in the find functions that use klist_iter_init_node is broken. If the function (for example driver_find_device) is called with a NULL start object then everything is fine, the first call to next_device()/klist_next increases the ref-count of the first node on the list and does nothing for the start object which is NULL. If they are called with a valid start object then klist_next will decrement the ref-count for the start object but nobody has incremented it. Logical place to fix this would be klist_iter_init_node because the function puts a reference of the object into the klist_iter struct.

2005-09-07[PATCH] fix klist semantics for lists which have elements removed on traversalJames Bottomley
The problem is that klists claim to provide semantics for safe traversal of lists which are being modified. The failure case is when traversal of a list causes element removal (a fairly common case). The issue is that although the list node is refcounted, if it is embedded in an object (which is universally the case), then the object will be freed regardless of the klist refcount leading to slab corruption because the klist iterator refers to the prior element to get the next. The solution is to make the klist take and release references to the embedding object meaning that the embedding object won't be released until the list relinquishes the reference to it.

2005-06-20[PATCH] Add initial implementation of klist helpers.mochel@digitalimplant.org
This klist interface provides a couple of structures that wrap around struct list_head to provide explicit list "head" (struct klist) and list "node" (struct klist_node) objects. For struct klist, a spinlock is included that protects access to the actual list itself. struct klist_node provides a pointer to the klist that owns it and a kref reference count that indicates the number of current users of that node in the list. The entire point is to provide an interface for iterating over a list that is safe and allows for modification of the list during the iteration (e.g. insertion and removal), including modification of the current node on the list. It works using a 3rd object type - struct klist_iter - that is declared and initialized before an iteration. klist_next() is used to acquire the next element in the list. It returns NULL if there are no more items.
