vhost/scsi: Fix incorrect usage of get_user_pages_fast write parameter

2013-10-25T18:03:34Z

This patch addresses a long-standing bug where the get_user_pages_fast() write parameter used for setting the underlying page table entry permission bits was incorrectly set to write=1 for data_direction=DMA_TO_DEVICE, and passed into get_user_pages_fast() via vhost_scsi_map_iov_to_sgl(). However, this parameter is intended to signal WRITEs to pinned userspace PTEs for the virtio-scsi DMA_FROM_DEVICE -> READ payload case, and *not* for the virtio-scsi DMA_TO_DEVICE -> WRITE payload case. This bug would manifest itself as random process segmentation faults on KVM host after repeated vhost starts + stops and/or with lots of vhost endpoints + LUNs. Cc: Stefan Hajnoczi Cc: Michael S.

vhost/scsi: Use GFP_ATOMIC with percpu_ida_alloc for obtaining tag

2013-10-02T04:27:31Z

Fix GFP_KERNEL -> GFP_ATOMIC usage of percpu_ida_alloc() within vhost_scsi_get_tag(), as this code is expected to be called directly from interrupt context. v2 changes: - Handle possible tag < 0 failure with GFP_ATOMIC Acked-by: Michael S.

vhost/scsi: use vmalloc for order-10 allocation

2013-09-17T19:55:46Z

As vhost scsi device struct is large, if the device is created on a busy system, kzalloc() might fail, so this patch does a fallback to vzalloc(). As vmalloc() adds overhead on data-path, add __GFP_REPEAT to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed. Reviewed-by: Asias He Reported-by: Dan Aloni Signed-off-by: Michael S.

vhost: wake up worker outside spin_lock

the wake_up_process func is included by spin_lock/unlock in vhost_work_queue, but it could be done outside the spin_lock.

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "Lots of activity again this round for I/O performance optimizations (per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for vhost + iscsi/target), and the addition of new fabric independent features to target-core (COMPARE_AND_WRITE + EXTENDED_COPY). The main highlights include: - Support for iscsi-target login multiplexing across individual network portals - Generic Per-cpu IDA logic (kent + akpm + clameter) - Conversion of vhost to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for descriptors, SGLs and userspace page pointer list - Conversion of iscsi-target + iser-target to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for descriptors - Add support for generic COMPARE_AND_WRITE (AtomicTestandSet) emulation for virtual backend drivers - Add support for generic EXTENDED_COPY (CopyOffload) emulation for virtual backend drivers. - Add support for fast memory registration mode to iser-target (Vu) The patches to add COMPARE_AND_WRITE and EXTENDED_COPY support are of particular significance, which make us the first and only open source target to support the full set of VAAI primitives. Currently Linux clients are lacking upstream support to actually utilize these primitives. However, with server side support now in place for folks like MKP + ZAB working on the client, this logic once reserved for the highest end of storage arrays, can now be run in VMs on their laptops" * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (50 commits) target/iscsi: Bump versions to v4.1.0 target: Update copyright ownership/year information to 2013 iscsi-target: Bump default TCP listen backlog to 256 target: Fix >= v3.9+ regression in PR APTPL + ALUA metadata write-out iscsi-target; Bump default CmdSN Depth to 64 iscsi-target: Remove unnecessary wait_for_completion in iscsi_get_thread_set iscsi-target: Add thread_set->ts_activate_sem + use common deallocate iscsi-target: Fix race with thread_pre_handler flush_signals + ISCSI_THREAD_SET_DIE target: remove unused including iser-target: introduce fast memory registration mode (FRWR) iser-target: generalize rdma memory registration and cleanup iser-target: move rdma wr processing to a shared function target: Enable global EXTENDED_COPY setup/release target: Add Third Party Copy (3PC) bit in INQUIRY response target: Enable EXTENDED_COPY setup in spc_parse_cdb target: Add support for EXTENDED_COPY copy offload emulation target: Avoid non-existent tg_pt_gp_mem in target_alua_state_check target: Add global device list for EXTENDED_COPY target: Make helpers non static for EXTENDED_COPY command setup target: Make spc_parse_naa_6h_vendor_specific non static ...

vhost/scsi: Add pre-allocation for tv_cmd SGL + upages memory

2013-09-09T21:29:19Z

This patch adds support for pre-allocation of per tv_cmd descriptor scatterlist + user-space page pointer memory using se_sess->sess_cmd_map within tcm_vhost_make_nexus() code. This includes sanity checks within vhost_scsi_map_to_sgl() to reject I/O that exceeds these initial hardcoded values, and the necessary cleanup in tcm_vhost_make_nexus() failure path + tcm_vhost_drop_nexus(). v3 changes: - Rebase to v3.11-rc5 code Cc: Michael S.
