...During debug it became clear that stalled request is always inserted in

blk_mq_flush_plug_list + 281
blk_flush_plug_list + 199
wait_on_page_bit + 192

vfs_fsync_range + 73
blkdev_write_iter + 202
__vfs_write + 170
vfs_write + 169
kernel_write + 56So blk_flush_plug_list() was called with from_schedule == true.
If from_schedule is true, that means that finally blk_mq_insert_requests()
offloads execution of __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and uses kblockd workqueue,
i.e. it calls kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on().That means, that we race with another CPU, which is about to execute
__blk_mq_run_hw_queue() work.Further debugging shows the following traces from different CPUs:
CPU#0 CPU#1
---------------------------------- -------------------------------
reqeust A inserted
STORE hctx->ctx_map[0] bit marked
kblockd_schedule...() returns 1
request B inserted
STORE hctx->ctx_map[1] bit marked
kblockd_schedule...() returns 0
*** WORK PENDING bit is cleared ***
flush_busy_ctxs() is executed, but
bit 1, set by CPU#1, is not observedAs a result request B pended forever.
This behaviour can be explained by speculative LOAD of hctx->ctx_map on
CPU#0, which is reordered with clear of PENDING bit and executed _before_
actual STORE of bit 1 on CPU#1.The proper fix is an explicit full barrier , which guarantees
that clear of PENDING bit is to be executed before all possible
speculative LOADS or STORES inside actual work function.Signed-off-by: Roman Pen

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel v4.6. There is quite a
lot of interesting stuff going on.The patches to other subsystems and arch-wide are ACKed as far as
possible, though I consider things like per-arch as
essentially a part of the GPIO subsystem so it should not be needed.Core changes:
- The gpio_chip is now a *real device*. Until now the gpio chips
were just piggybacking the parent device or (gasp) floating in
space outside of the device model.We now finally make GPIO chips devices. The gpio_chip will create
a gpio_device which contains a struct device, and this gpio_device
struct is kept private. Anything that needs to be kept private
from the rest of the kernel will gradually be moved over to the
gpio_device.- As a result of making the gpio_device a real device, we have added
resource management, so devm_gpiochip_add_data() will cut down on
overhead and reduce code lines. A huge slew of patches convert
almost all drivers in the subsystem to use this.- Building on making the GPIO a real device, we add the first step of
a new userspace ABI: the GPIO character device. We take small
steps here, so we first add a pure *information* ABI and the tool
"lsgpio" that will list all GPIO devices on the system and all
lines on these devices.We can now discover GPIOs properly from userspace. We still have
not come up with a way to actually *use* GPIOs from userspace.- To encourage people to use the character device for the future, we
have it always-enabled when using GPIO. The old sysfs ABI is still
opt-in (and can be used in parallel), but is marked as deprecated.We will keep it around for the foreseeable future, but it will not
be extended to cover ever more use cases.Cleanup:
- Bjorn Helgaas removed a whole slew of per-architecture
includes.This dates back to when GPIO was an opt-in feature and no shared
library even existed: just a header file with proper prototypes was
provided and all semantics were up to the arch to implement. These
patches make the GPIO chip even more a proper device and cleans out
leftovers of the old in-kernel API here and there.Still some cruft is left but it's very little now.
- There is still some clamping of return values for .get() going on,
but we now return sane values in the vast majority of drivers and
the errorpath is sanitized. Some patches for powerpc, blackfin and
unicore still drop in.- We continue to switch the ARM, MIPS, blackfin, m68k local GPIO
implementations to use gpiochip_add_data() and cut down on code
lines.- MPC8xxx is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.
- ATH79 is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.
New drivers:
- WinSystems WS16C48
- Acces 104-DIO-48E
- F81866 (a F7188x variant)
- Qoric (a MPC8xxx variant)
- TS-4800

SPI to obtain a dirt-cheap output-only GPIO expander.- Texas Instruments TPIC2810

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"Here are the main arm64 updates for 4.6. There are some relatively
intrusive changes to support KASLR, the reworking of the kernel
virtual memory layout and initial page table creation.Summary:
- Initial page table creation reworked to avoid breaking large block
mappings (huge pages) into smaller ones. The ARM architecture
requires break-before-make in such cases to avoid TLB conflicts but
that's not always possible on live page tables- Kernel virtual memory layout: the kernel image is no longer linked
to the bottom of the linear mapping (PAGE_OFFSET) but at the bottom
of the vmalloc space, allowing the kernel to be loaded (nearly)
anywhere in physical RAM- Kernel ASLR: position independent kernel Image and modules being
randomly mapped in the vmalloc space with the randomness is
provided by UEFI (efi_get_random_bytes() patches merged via the
arm64 tree, acked by Matt Fleming)- Implement relative exception tables for arm64, required by KASLR
(initial code for ARCH_HAS_RELATIVE_EXTABLE added to lib/extable.c
but actual x86 conversion to deferred to 4.7 because of the merge
dependencies)- Support for the User Access Override feature of ARMv8.2: this
allows uaccess functions (get_user etc.) to be implemented using
LDTR/STTR instructions. Such instructions, when run by the kernel,
perform unprivileged accesses adding an extra level of protection.
The set_fs() macro is used to "upgrade" such instruction to
privileged accesses via the UAO bit- Half-precision floating point support (part of ARMv8.2)
- Optimisations for CPUs with or without a hardware prefetcher (using
run-time code patching)- copy_page performance improvement to deal with 128 bytes at a time
- Sanity checks on the CPU capabilities (via CPUID) to prevent
incompatible secondary CPUs from being brought up (e.g. weird
big.LITTLE configurations)- valid_user_regs() reworked for better sanity check of the
sigcontext information (restored pstate information)- ACPI parking protocol implementation
- CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA enabled by default
- VDSO code marked as read-only
- DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support

Pull VFIO updates from Alex Williamson:
"Various enablers for assignment of Intel graphics devices and future
support of vGPU devices (Alex Williamson). This includes- Handling the vfio type1 interface as an API rather than a specific
implementation, allowing multiple type1 providers.- Capability chains, similar to PCI device capabilities, that allow
extending ioctls. Extensions here include device specific regions
and sparse mmap descriptions. The former is used to expose non-PCI
regions for IGD, including the OpRegion (particularly the Video
BIOS Table), and read only PCI config access to the host and LPC
bridge as drivers often depend on identifying those devices.Sparse mmaps here are used to describe the MSIx vector table, which
vfio has always protected from mmap, but never had an API to
explicitly define that protection. In future vGPU support this is
expected to allow the description of PCI BARs that may mix direct
access and emulated access within a single region.- The ability to expose the shadow ROM as an option ROM as IGD use

The recent change in HD-audio HDMI/DP codec driver for allowing the
dynamic PCM binding introduced a new spec->pcm_mutex. One of the
protected area by this mutex is hdmi_present_sense(). As reported by
Intel CI tests, unfortunately, the new mutex causes a deadlock when
the hotplug/unplug is triggered during the codec is in runtime
suspend. The buggy code path is like the following:hdmi_unsol_event() -> ...
-> hdmi_present_sense()
==> ** here taking pcm_mutex
-> hdmi_present_sense_via_verbs()
-> snd_hda_power_up_pm() -> ... (runtime resume calls)
-> generic_hdmi_resume()
-> hdmi_present_sense()
==> ** here taking pcm_mutex again!As we can see here, the problem is that the mutex is taken before
snd_hda_power_up_pm() call that triggers the runtime resume. That is,
the obvious solution is to move the power up/down call outside the
mutex; it is exactly what this patch provides.The patch also clarifies why this bug wasn't caught beforehand. We
used to have the i915 audio component for hotplug for all Intel chips,
and in that code path, there is no power up required but the
information is taken directly from the graphics side. However, we
recently switched back to the old method for some old Intel chips due
to regressions, and now the deadlock issue is surfaced.Fixes: a76056f2e57e ('ALSA: hda - hdmi dynamically bind PCM to pin when monitor hotplug')

Remove the livepatch module notifier in favor of directly enabling and
disabling patches to modules in the module loader. Hard-coding the
function calls ensures that ftrace_module_enable() is run before
klp_module_coming() during module load, and that klp_module_going() is
run before ftrace_release_mod() during module unload. This way, ftrace
and livepatch code is run in the correct order during the module
load/unload sequence without dependence on the module notifier call chain.Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu

Put all actions in complete_formation() that are performed after
module->state is set to MODULE_STATE_COMING into a separate function
prepare_coming_module(). This split prepares for the removal of the
livepatch module notifiers in favor of hard-coding function calls to
klp_module_{coming,going} in the module loader.The complete_formation -> prepare_coming_module split will also make error
handling easier since we can jump to the appropriate error label to do any
module GOING cleanup after all the COMING-actions have completed.Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu
