2012-04-02nfsd: don't allow zero length strings in cache_parse()Dan Carpenter
commit 6d8d17499810479eabd10731179c04b2ca22152f upstream. There is no point in passing a zero length string here and quite a few of that cache_parse() implementations will Oops if count is zero.

2011-01-04svcrpc: ensure cache_check caller sees updated entryJ. Bruce Fields
Supposes cache_check runs simultaneously with an update on a different CPU: cache_check task doing update ^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 1. test for CACHE_VALID 1'. set entry->data & !CACHE_NEGATIVE 2. use entry->data 2'. set CACHE_VALID If the two memory writes performed in step 1' and 2' appear misordered with respect to the reads in step 1 and 2, then the caller could get stale data at step 2 even though it saw CACHE_VALID set on the cache entry. Add memory barriers to prevent this. Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2011-01-04svcrpc: take lock on turning entry NEGATIVE in cache_checkJ. Bruce Fields
We attempt to turn a cache entry negative in place. But that entry may already have been filled in by some other task since we last checked whether it was valid, so we could be modifying an already-valid entry. If nothing else there's a likely leak in such a case when the entry is eventually put() and contents are not freed because it has CACHE_NEGATIVE set. So, take the cache_lock just as sunrpc_cache_update() does. Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2011-01-04svcrpc: avoid double reply caused by deferral raceJ. Bruce Fields
Commit d29068c431599fa "sunrpc: Simplify cache_defer_req and related functions." asserted that cache_check() could determine success or failure of cache_defer_req() by checking the CACHE_PENDING bit. This isn't quite right. We need to know whether cache_defer_req() created a deferred request, in which case sending an rpc reply has become the responsibility of the deferred request, and it is important that we not send our own reply, resulting in two different replies to the same request. And the CACHE_PENDING bit doesn't tell us that; we could have succesfully created a deferred request at the same time as another thread cleared the CACHE_PENDING bit. So, partially revert that commit, to ensure that cache_check() returns -EAGAIN if and only if a deferred request has been created. Signed-off-by: J.

2010-10-15llseek: automatically add .llseek fopArnd Bergmann
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

2010-10-11sunrpc/cache: centralise handling of size limit on deferred list.NeilBrown
We limit the number of 'defer' requests to DFR_MAX. The imposition of this limit is spread about a bit - sometime we don't add new things to the list, sometimes we remove old things. Also it is currently applied to requests which we are 'waiting' for rather than 'deferring'. This doesn't seem ideal as 'waiting' requests are naturally limited by the number of threads. So gather the DFR_MAX handling code to one place and only apply it to requests that are actually being deferred. This means that not all 'cache_deferred_req' structures go on the 'cache_defer_list, so we need to be careful when adding and removing things.

2010-10-11sunrpc: Simplify cache_defer_req and related functions.NeilBrown
The return value from cache_defer_req is somewhat confusing. Various different error codes are returned, but the single caller is only interested in success or failure. In fact it can measure this success or failure itself by checking CACHE_PENDING, which makes the point of the code more explicit. So change cache_defer_req to return 'void' and test CACHE_PENDING after it completes, to see if the request was actually deferred or not. Similarly setup_deferral and cache_wait_req don't need a return value, so make them void and remove some code. The call to cache_revisit_request (to guard against a race) is only needed for the second call to setup_deferral, so move it out of setup_deferral to after that second call. With the first call the race is handled differently (by explicitly calling 'wait_for_completion'). Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2010-10-01sunrpc: fix race in new cache_wait code.NeilBrown
If we set up to wait for a cache item to be filled in, and then find that it is no longer pending, it could be that some other thread is in 'cache_revisit_request' and has moved our request to its 'pending' list. So when our setup_deferral calls cache_revisit_request it will find nothing to put on the pending list, and do nothing. We then return from cache_wait_req, thus leaving the 'sleeper' on-stack structure open to being corrupted by subsequent stack usage. However that 'sleeper' could still be on the 'pending' list that the other thread is looking at and so any corruption could cause it to behave badly. To avoid this race we simply take the same path as if the 'wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout' was interrupted and if the sleeper is no longer on the list (which it won't be) we wait on the completion - which will ensure that any other cache_revisit_request will have let go of the sleeper.

2010-09-19nfsd4: fix hang on fast-booting nfs serversJ. Bruce Fields
The last_close field of a cache_detail is initialized to zero, so the condition detail->last_close < seconds_since_boot() - 30 may be false even for a cache that was never opened. However, we want to immediately fail upcalls to caches that were never opened: in the case of the auth_unix_gid cache, especially, which may never be opened by mountd (if the --manage-gids option is not set), we want to fail the upcall immediately. Otherwise client requests will be dropped unnecessarily on reboot. Also document these conditions. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>

2010-09-07sunrpc/cache: allow threads to block while waiting for cache update.NeilBrown
The current practice of waiting for cache updates by queueing the whole request to be retried has (at least) two problems. 1/ With NFSv4, requests can be quite complex and re-trying a whole request when a later part fails should only be a last-resort, not a normal practice. 2/ Large requests, and in particular any 'write' request, will not be queued by the current code and doing so would be undesirable. In many cases only a very sort wait is needed before the cache gets valid data. So, providing the underlying transport permits it by setting ->thread_wait, arrange to wait briefly for an upcall to be completed (as reflected in the clearing of CACHE_PENDING). If the short wait was not long enough and CACHE_PENDING is still set, fall back on the old approach. The 'thread_wait' value is set to 5 seconds when there are spare threads, and 1 second when there are no spare threads. These values are probably much higher than needed, but will ensure some forward progress. Note that as we only request an update for a non-valid item, and as non-valid items are updated in place it is extremely unlikely that cache_check will return -ETIMEDOUT. Normally cache_defer_req will sleep for a short while and then find that the item is_valid. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>

2010-07-06sunrpc: make the cache cleaner workqueue deferrableArtem Bityutskiy
This patch makes the cache_cleaner workqueue deferrable, to prevent unnecessary system wake-ups, which is very important for embedded battery-powered devices. do_cache_clean() is called every 30 seconds at the moment, and often makes the system wake up from its power-save sleep state. With this change, when the workqueue uses a deferrable timer, the do_cache_clean() invocation will be delayed and combined with the closest "real" wake-up. This improves the power consumption situation. Note, I tried to create a DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE() helper macro, similar to DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK(), but failed because of the way the timer wheel core stores the deferrable flag (it is the LSBit in the time->base pointer). My attempt to define a static variable with this bit set ended up with the "initializer element is not constant" error. Thus, I have to use run-time initialization, so I created a new cache_initialize() function which is called once when sunrpc is being initialized.

2010-03-14sunrpc: never return expired entries in sunrpc_cache_lookupNeilBrown
If sunrpc_cache_lookup finds an expired entry, remove it from the cache and return a freshly created non-VALID entry instead. This ensures that we only ever get a usable entry, or an entry that will become usable once an update arrives. i.e. we will never need to repeat the lookup. This allows us to remove the 'is_expired' test from cache_check (i.e. from cache_is_valid). cache_check should never get an expired entry as 'lookup' will never return one. If it does happen - due to inconvenient timing - then just accept it as still valid, it won't be very much past it's use-by date. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.

But since that (being a very different sort of cache) was separated, this test is no longer needed. So remove the test on refcnt and tidy up the surrounding code.

Using list_del_init is generally safer than list_del, and it will allow us, in a subsequent patch, to see if an entry has already been processed or not. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2009-09-11sunrpc/cache: simplify cache_fresh_locked and cache_fresh_unlocked.NeilBrown
The extra call to cache_revisit_request in cache_fresh_unlocked is not needed, as should have been fairly clear at the time of commit 4013edea9a0b6cdcb1fdf5d4011e47e068fd6efb If there are requests to be revisited, then we can be sure that CACHE_PENDING is set, so the second call is sufficient. So remove the first call. Then remove the 'new' parameter, then remove the return value for cache_fresh_locked which is only used to provide the value for 'new'.

2009-09-11sunrpc/cache: change cache_defer_req to return -ve error, not boolean.NeilBrown
As "cache_defer_req" does not sound like a predicate, having it return a boolean value can be confusing. It is more consistent to return 0 for success and negative for error. Exactly what error code to return is not important as we don't differentiate between reasons why the request wasn't deferred, we only care about whether it was deferred or not.

2009-08-09SUNRPC: Allow the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall mechanismsTrond Myklebust
For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends. The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall mechanisms for these particular cases. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2009-08-09SUNRPC: Remove the global temporary write buffer in net/sunrpc/cache.cTrond Myklebust
While we do want to protect against multiple concurrent readers and writers on each upcall/downcall pipe, we don't want to limit concurrent reading and writing to separate caches. This patch therefore replaces the static buffer 'write_buf', which can only be used by one writer at a time, with use of the page cache as the temporary buffer for downcalls. We still fall back to using the the old global buffer if the downcall is larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, since this is apparently needed by the SPKM security context initialisation. It then replaces the use of the global 'queue_io_mutex' with the inode->i_mutex in cache_read() and cache_write(). Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-08-04sunrpc/cache: recheck cache validity after cache_defer_reqNeilBrown

2009-08-04sunrpc/cache: make sure deferred requests eventually get revisited.NeilBrown
While deferred requests normally get revisited quite quickly, it is possible for a request to remain in the deferral queue when the cache item is discarded. We can easily make sure that doesn't happen by calling cache_revisit_request just before the final 'put'. Also there is a small chance that a race would cause one thread to defer a request against a cache item while another thread is failing to queue an upcall for that item. So when the upcall fails, make sure to revisit all deferred requests. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

2009-03-31proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::ownerAlexey Dobriyan
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
