NeilBrown [Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:48:02 +0000 (05:48 -0700)]
[PATCH] Make copy_from_user_inatomic NOT zero the tail on i386

As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h,
copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an
incomplete copy.

This patch implements that change for i386.

For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar
to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy.

For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses
__copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the
__user annotations.

If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do
still zero the destintion on failure.  This didn't seem worth the effort of
fixing as the places where it is used really don't care.

18 years ago[PATCH] Prepare for __copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero missed bytes
NeilBrown [Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:47:58 +0000 (05:47 -0700)]
[PATCH] Prepare for __copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero missed bytes

The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to
pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is
not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*.

This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing
to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was
there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing
to see).

If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption
re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an
error.

The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so
causes the problem.  It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user
so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out
bytes on failure.

The first of these two patches prepares for the change by fixing two places
which assume copy_from_user_atomic does zero the tail.  The two usages are
very similar pieces of code which copy from a userspace iovec into one or more
page-cache pages.  These are changed to remove the assumption.

The second patch changes __copy_from_user_inatomic* to not zero the tail.
Once these are accepted, I will look at similar patches of other architectures
where this is important (ppc, mips and sparc being the ones I can find).

This patch:

There is a problem with __copy_from_user_inatomic zeroing the tail of the
buffer in the case of an error.  As it is called in atomic context, the error
may be transient, so it results in zeros being written where maybe they
shouldn't be.

In the usage in filemap, this opens a window for a well timed read to see data
(zeros) which is not consistent with any ordering of reads and writes.

Most cases where __copy_from_user_inatomic is called, a failure results in
__copy_from_user being called immediately.  As long as the latter zeros the
tail, the former doesn't need to.  However in *copy_from_user_iovec
implementations (in both filemap and ntfs/file), it is assumed that
copy_from_user_inatomic will zero the tail.

This patch removes that assumption, so that after this patch it will
be safe for copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero the tail.

This patch also adds some commentary to filemap.h and asm-i386/uaccess.h.

After this patch, all architectures that might disable preempt when
kmap_atomic is called need to have their __copy_from_user_inatomic* "fixed".
This includes
 - powerpc
 - i386
 - mips
 - sparc

bogus "Media Check" failures for perfectly valid Fedora install ISOs, on
certain CD-ROM drives.

This is a forward port to 2.6.16 (from RHEL) of the minimal changes for the

Michael Ellerman [Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:47:40 +0000 (05:47 -0700)]
[PATCH] Make printk work for really early debugging

Currently printk is no use for early debugging because it refuses to
actually print anything to the console unless
cpu_online(smp_processor_id()) is true.

The stated explanation is that console drivers may require per-cpu
resources, or otherwise barf, because the system is not yet setup
correctly.  Fair enough.

However some console drivers might be quite happy running early during
boot, in fact we have one, and so it'd be nice if printk understood that.

So I added a flag (which I would have called CON_BOOT, but that's taken)
called CON_ANYTIME, which indicates that a console is happy to be called
anytime, even if the cpu is not yet online.

Tested on a Power 5 machine, with both a CON_ANYTIME driver and a bogus
console driver that BUG()s if called while offline.  No problems AFAICT.
Built for i386 UP & SMP.

[PATCH] ufs: change block number on the fly

First of all some necessary notes about UFS by it self: To avoid waste of disk
space the tail of file consists not from blocks (which is ordinary big enough,
16K usually), it consists from fragments(which is ordinary 2K).  When file is
growing its tail occupy 1 fragment, 2 fragments...  At some stage decision to
allocate whole block is made and all fragments are moved to one block.

How this situation was handled before:

  ufs_prepare_write
  ->block_prepare_write
    ->ufs_getfrag_block
      ->...
        ->ufs_new_fragments:

bh = sb_bread
bh->b_blocknr = result + i;
mark_buffer_dirty (bh);

This is wrong solution, because:

- it didn't take into consideration that there is another cache: "inode page
  cache"

- because of sb_getblk uses not b_blocknr, (it uses page->index) to find
  certain block, this breaks sb_getblk.

How this situation is handled now: we go though all "page inode cache", if
there are no such page in cache we load it into cache, and change b_blocknr.

[PATCH] Define __raw_get_cpu_var and use it

There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which
is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning
that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled.  For
those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64,
powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower
code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var
on those platforms.

This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x,
raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu
implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that

18 years ago[PATCH] page migration: Support a vma migration function

[PATCH] page migration: Support a vma migration function

Hooks for calling vma specific migration functions

With this patch a vma may define a vma->vm_ops->migrate function.  That
function may perform page migration on its own (some vmas may not contain page
structs and therefore cannot be handled by regular page migration.  Pages in a
vma may require special preparatory treatment before migration is possible
etc) .  Only mmap_sem is held when the migration function is called.  The
migrate() function gets passed two sets of nodemasks describing the source and
the target of the migration.  The flags parameter either contains

MPOL_MF_MOVE which means that only pages used exclusively by
the specified mm should be moved

or

MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL which means that pages shared with other processes
should also be moved.

The migration function returns 0 on success or an error condition.  An error
condition will prevent regular page migration from occurring.

On its own this patch cannot be included since there are no users for this
functionality.  But it seems that the uncached allocator will need this
functionality at some point.

[PATCH] mm: remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn_range and drop VM_SHM

Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of
VM_SHM.

remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO.  There is no need to set VM_SHM since
it does nothing.  VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not
place pages on the LRU.  The pages are therefore never subject to swap
anyways.  Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range.

After removing all the vm_flag settings no use of VM_SHM is left.  Drop it.

18 years ago[PATCH] AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE victims in read_pages() belong in the LRU
Zach Brown [Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:46:46 +0000 (05:46 -0700)]
[PATCH] AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE victims in read_pages() belong in the LRU

AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE victims in read_pages() belong in the LRU

Nick Piggin rightly pointed out that the introduction of AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE
to read_pages() was wrong to leave A_T_P victim pages in the page cache but
not put them in the LRU.  Failing to do so hid them from the VM.

A_T_P just means that the aop method unlocked the page rather than
performing IO.  It would be very rare that the page was truncated between
the unlock and testing A_T_P.  So we leave the pages in the LRU for likely
reuse soon rather than backing them back out of the page cache.  We do this
by matching the behaviour before the A_T_P introduction which added pages
to the LRU regardless of what ->readpage() did.

This doesn't include the unrelated cleanup in Nick's initial fix which
changed read_pages() to return void to match its only caller's behaviour of
ignoring errors.

As Al so eloquently points out, the patch is crap. The old code was fine,
the new code was bogus.

It never dereferenced a user pointer, the "->" operator was to an array
member, which gives the _address_ of the member (in user space), not an
actual dereference at all.
