drives generally try and respond if they can before that happens.  We
default to 5 seconds, which sometimes is a bit too short.

Jeremy Higdon reported here:

that his drive takes longer than 5 seconds for a "read track

[PATCH] libata: fix combined mode

This is a slight variant on the patch I posted December 16th to fix
libata combined mode handling. The only real change is that we now
correctly also reserve BAR1,2,4. That is basically a neatness issue.

Jeff was unhappy about two things

1. That it didn't work in the case of one channel native one channel
legacy.

This is a silly complaint because the SFF layer in libata doesn't handle
this case yet anyway.

2. The case where combined mode is in use and IDE=n.

In this case the libata quirk code reserves the resources in question
correctly already.

Once the combined mode stuff is redone properly (2.6.21) then the entire
mess turns into a single pci_request_regions() for all cases and all the
ugly resource hackery goes away.

I'm sending this now rather than after running full test suites so that
it can get the maximal testing in a short time. I'll be running tests on
this after lunch.

1. Load the supported arch's module.

[PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes"

Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what
it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are
(from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads.

Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from
"undefined" to "will shift zeroes".  This lets protocol drivers (like the
ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior.  It's what most controller drivers
in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver
wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing,
and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to
define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels.

This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and
updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

[PATCH] sched: fix cond_resched_softirq() offset

Remove the __resched_legal() check: it is conceptually broken.  The biggest
problem it had is that it can mask buggy cond_resched() calls.  A
cond_resched() call is only legal if we are not in an atomic context, with
two narrow exceptions:

 - if the system is booting
 - a reacquire_kernel_lock() down() done while PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set

But __resched_legal() hid this and just silently returned whenever
these primitives were called from invalid contexts. (Same goes for
cond_resched_locked() and cond_resched_softirq()).

Furthermore, the __legal_resched(0) call was buggy in that it caused
unnecessarily long softirq latencies via cond_resched_softirq().  (which is
only called from softirq-off sections, hence the code did nothing.)

The fix is to resurrect the efficiency of the might_sleep checks and to
only allow the narrow exceptions.

[PATCH] Fix lock inversion aio_kick_handler()

1) The task struct's alloc_lock (A) is acquired in process context with
   interrupts enabled.  An interrupt might arrive and call wake_up() which
   grabs the wait queue's q->lock (B).

2) When performing retry-based AIO the AIO core registers
   aio_wake_function() as the wake funtion for iocb->ki_wait.  It is called
   with the wait queue's q->lock (B) held and then tries to add the iocb to
   the run list after acquiring the ctx_lock (C).

3) aio_kick_handler() holds the ctx_lock (C) while acquiring the
   alloc_lock (A) via lock_task() and unuse_mm().  Lockdep emits a warning
   saying that we're trying to connect the irq-safe q->lock to the
   irq-unsafe alloc_lock via ctx_lock.

This fixes the inversion by calling unuse_mm() in the AIO kick handing path
after we've released the ctx_lock.  As Ben LaHaise pointed out __put_ioctx
could set ctx->mm to NULL, so we must only access ctx->mm while we have the
lock.

17 years agoVM: Fix nasty and subtle race in shared mmap'ed page writeback
Linus Torvalds [Fri, 29 Dec 2006 18:00:58 +0000 (10:00 -0800)]
VM: Fix nasty and subtle race in shared mmap'ed page writeback

The VM layer (on the face of it, fairly reasonably) expected that when
it does a ->writepage() call to the filesystem, it would write out the
full page at that point in time.  Especially since it had earlier marked
the whole page dirty with "set_page_dirty()".

But that isn't actually the case: ->writepage() does not actually write
a page, it writes the parts of the page that have been explicitly marked
dirty before, *and* that had not got written out for other reasons since
the last time we told it they were dirty.

That last caveat is the important one.

Which _most_ of the time ends up being the whole page (since we had
called "set_page_dirty()" on the page earlier), but if the filesystem
had done any dirty flushing of its own (for example, to honor some
internal write ordering guarantees), it might end up doing only a
partial page IO (or none at all) when ->writepage() is actually called.

That is the correct thing in general (since we actually often _want_
only the known-dirty parts of the page to be written out), but the
shared dirty page handling had implicitly forgotten about these details,
and had a number of cases where it was doing just the "->writepage()"
part, without telling the low-level filesystem that the whole page might
have been re-dirtied as part of being mapped writably into user space.

Since most of the time the FS did actually write out the full page, we
didn't notice this for a loong time, and this needed some really odd
patterns to trigger.  But it caused occasional corruption with rtorrent
and with the Debian "apt" database, because both use shared mmaps to
update the end result.

This fixes it. Finally. After way too much hair-pulling.
