When raid5 recovery hits a fresh badblock, this badblock will flagged as unack
badblock until md_update_sb() is called.
But md_stop will take reconfig lock which means raid5d can't call
md_update_sb() in md_check_recovery(), the badblock will always
be unack, so raid5d thread enters an infinite loop and md_stop_write()
can never stop sync_thread. This causes deadlock.To solve this, when STOP_ARRAY ioctl is issued and sync_thread is
running, we need set md->recovery FROZEN and INTR flags and wait for
sync_thread to stop before we (re)take reconfig lock.This requires that raid5 reshape_request notices MD_RECOVERY_INTR
(which it probably should have noticed anyway) and stops waiting for a
metadata update in that case.Reported-by: Jianpeng Ma

We currently use kthread_should_stop() in various places in the
sync/reshape code to abort early.
However some places set MD_RECOVERY_INTR but don't immediately call
md_reap_sync_thread() (and we will shortly get another one).
When this happens we are relying on md_check_recovery() to reap the
thread and that only happen when it finishes normally.
So MD_RECOVERY_INTR must lead to a normal finish without the
kthread_should_stop() test.So replace all relevant tests, and be more careful when the thread is
interrupted not to acknowledge that latest step in a reshape as it may
not be fully committed yet.Also add a test on MD_RECOVERY_INTR in the 'is_mddev_idle' loop
so we don't wait have to wait for the speed to drop before we can abort.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

Sometimes we need to lock and mddev and cannot cope with
failure due to interrupt.
In these cases we should use mutex_lock, not mutex_lock_interruptible.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

Because of block layer merge, one bio fails will cause other bios
which belongs to the same request fails, so raid5_end_read_request
will record all these bios as badblocks.
If retry request with R5_ReadNoMerge flag to avoid bios merge,
badblocks can only record sector which is bad exactly.test:

get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two
paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is
stripe is found.The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses
conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks,
conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded,
conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except
stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely.With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free
stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined
by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a
lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which
is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current
stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned
to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl
list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new
locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash
locks, lock contention is relieved significantly.The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are
changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash
locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem.If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The
tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first.
Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it
to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to
temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash
lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which
means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe.One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't
across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so
each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but
other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are
even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several
mega bytes memory isn't a big deal.This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of
get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though
because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended,
the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second
path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size
randwrite) still has lock contentions.Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li

The various ->run routines of md personalities assume that the 'queue'
has been initialised by the blk_set_stacking_limits() call in
md_alloc().However when the level is changed (by level_store()) the ->run routine
for the new level is called for an array which has already had the
stacking limits modified. This can result in incorrect final
settings.So call blk_set_stacking_limits() before ->run in level_store().
A specific consequence of this bug is that it causes
discard_granularity to be set incorrectly when reshaping a RAID4 to a
RAID0.This is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.3 in which
blk_set_stacking_limits() was introduced.Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (3.3+)

It is possible for two CPUs to get their stopper functions queued
"backwards" from one another, resulting in the stopper threads

they are now switching over to removal of board code and migration to
multiplatform, so we'll see their board code base shrink in the near

1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are
confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read
the 2nd page first.2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines.
3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it
doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size.In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to
the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn.Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file
can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we
do this only to catch the obvious mistakes.Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify
and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations.Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size
if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the
same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't
know how many bytes were actually read anyway.Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov

Commit aa59c53fd459 "uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup
xol_area" has a stupid typo, we need to setup t->utask->vaddr but
the code wrongly uses current->utask.Even with this bug dup_xol_work() works "in practice", but only
because get_unmapped_area(NULL, TASK_SIZE - PAGE_SIZE) likely
returns the same address every time.Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov

When I was able to reproduce it with trinity, I was able to track down
exactly how it happened.I discovered that the check for whether the function tracepoint should
be activated or not was using the "perf_paranoid_kernel()" check which
by default, lets the user continue. The user should not by default be
able to enable function tracing.The fix is to use "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" which will not let
the user enable function tracing. This is a security fix as normal

STI text console (sticon) was broken on 64bit machines with more than
4GB RAM and this lead in some cases to a kernel crash.Since sticon uses the 32bit STI API it needs to keep pointers to memory
below 4GB. But on a 64bit kernel some memory regions (e.g. the kernel
stack) might be above 4GB which then may crash the kernel in the STI
functions.Additionally sticon didn't selected the built-in framebuffer fonts by
default. This is now fixed.On a side-note: Theoretically we could enhance the sticon driver to
use the 64bit STI API. But - beside the fact that some machines don't
provide a 64bit STI ROM - this would just add complexity.Signed-off-by: Helge Deller
