  • Pull first batch of s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
    "The most interesting change is that Martin converted s390 to generic
    hardirqs. Which means that all current architectures have been
    converted and that CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed. Martin
    prepared a patch for that already (see genirq branch), but the best
    time to merge that is probably at the end of the merge window / begin
    of -rc1.

    Another patch converts s390 to software referenced bits instead of
    relying on the reference bit in the storage key. Therefore s390
    doesn't use storage keys anymore, except for kvm.

    Besides that we have improvements, cleanups and fixes in PCI, DASD and
    all over the place."

  • By popular demand, this patch brings back a couple of sysfs attributes
    removed by commit 663e0890e31cb85f0cca5ac1faaee0d2d52880b5
    "[SCSI] zfcp: remove access control tables interface".
    The content has been irrelevant for years, but the files must be
    there forever for whatever user space tools that may rely on them.

    Since these files always return a constant value, a new stripped
    down show-macro was required. Otherwise build warnings would have
    been introduced.

    Apparently, the ref_count for some scsi_device drops down to zero,
    triggering device removal through execute_in_process_context(), while
    the lldd error recovery thread iterates through a scsi device list.
    Unfortunately, execute_in_process_context() decides to immediately
    execute that device removal function, instead of scheduling asynchronous
    execution, since it detects process context and thinks it is safe to do
    so. But almost all calls to shost_for_each_device() in our lldd are
    inside spin_lock_irq, even in thread context. Obviously, schedule()
    inside spin_lock_irq sections is a bad idea.

    Change the lldd to use the proper iterator function,
    __shost_for_each_device(), in combination with required locking.

    Occurences that need to be changed include all calls in zfcp_erp.c,
    since those might be executed in zfcp error recovery thread context
    with a lock held.

    Other occurences of shost_for_each_device() in zfcp_fsf.c do not
    need to be changed (no process context, no surrounding locking).

    The problem was introduced in Linux 2.6.37 by commit
    b62a8d9b45b971a67a0f8413338c230e3117dff5
    "[SCSI] zfcp: Use SCSI device data zfcp_scsi_dev instead of zfcp_unit".

  • This patch adds wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout(), which is a
    straight-forward descendant of wait_event_interruptible_timeout() and
    wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq().

    The zfcp driver used to call wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
    in combination with some intricate and error-prone locking. Using
    wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout() as a replacement
    nicely cleans up that locking.

    This rework removes a situation that resulted in a locking imbalance
    in zfcp_qdio_sbal_get():

    BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic: events/1/0xffffff00/10
    last function: zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline+0x0/0xa0 [zfcp]

    It was introduced by commit c2af7545aaff3495d9bf9a7608c52f0af86fb194
    "[SCSI] zfcp: Do not wait for SBALs on stopped queue", which had a new
    code path related to ZFCP_STATUS_ADAPTER_QDIOUP that took an early exit
    without a required lock being held. The problem occured when a
    special, non-SCSI I/O request was being submitted in process context,
    when the adapter's queues had been torn down. In this case the bug
    surfaced when the Fibre Channel port connection for a well-known address
    was closed during a concurrent adapter shut-down procedure, which is a
    rare constellation.

    This patch also fixes these warnings from the sparse tool (make C=1):

    drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:224:12: warning: context imbalance in
    'zfcp_qdio_sbal_check' - wrong count at exit
    drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:244:5: warning: context imbalance in
    'zfcp_qdio_sbal_get' - unexpected unlock

    Last but not least, we get rid of that crappy lock-unlock-lock
    sequence at the beginning of the critical section.

    It is okay to call zfcp_erp_adapter_reopen() with req_q_lock held.

  • The ECKD protocol supports reading of tracks with arbitrary format as
    raw track images. The DASD device driver supports this in its
    raw_track_access mode. In this mode it maps each track to sixteen 4096
    byte sectors and rejects all requests that are not properly aligned to
    this mapping.

    An application that wants to use a DASD in raw_track_access mode will
    usually use direct I/O to make sure that properly aligned requests are
    directly submitted to the driver. However, applications that are not
    aware of this mode, e.g. udev, will encounter I/O errors.

    To make the use without direct I/O possible and avoid this kind of
    alignment errors, we now pad unaligned read requests with a dummy
    page, so that we can always read full tracks. Please note that
    writing is still only possible for full track images that are properly
    aligned.

  • Change wording for the cpu capabiity changed message:
    If such an event occurs it only means that a cpu capability *may* have
    changed. A cpu capability change event may also occur for other reasons.

    Also change the severity of the message from warning to informational.

    If such an event happens user space should into /proc/sysinfo and verify
    if some capability values changed, if that is of interest.

  • With the introduction of PCI it became apparent that s390 should
    convert to generic hardirqs as too many drivers do not have the
    correct dependency for GENERIC_HARDIRQS. On the architecture
    level s390 does not have irq lines. It has external interrupts,
    I/O interrupts and adapter interrupts. This patch hard-codes all
    external interrupts as irq #1, all I/O interrupts as irq #2 and
    all adapter interrupts as irq #3. The additional information from
    the lowcore associated with the interrupt is stored in the
    pt_regs of the interrupt frame, where the interrupt handler can
    pick it up. For PCI/MSI interrupts the adapter interrupt handler
    scans the relevant bit fields and calls generic_handle_irq with
    the virtual irq number for the MSI interrupt.

  • Pull networking updates from David Miller:
    "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
    window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
    this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
    made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
    trickeled in.

    Highlights:

    1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
    handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network
    device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

    Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

    Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
    commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

    From Eliezer Tamir.

    2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
    more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
    addresses. Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
    Eric Dumazet.

    3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
    Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
    Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

    4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
    Pavel Emelyanov.

    5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
    Rony Efraim.

    6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

    7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
    Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

    8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
    from Cong Wang.

    9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
    Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport. In particular,
    support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

    10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
    lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code. From Daniel
    Borkmann.

    11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
    devices. From Nicolas Dichtel.

    12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
    manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
    From Daniel Borkmann.

    13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
    from Johannes Berg.

    14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
    by using an rbtree. From Eric Dumazet.

    15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
    Cheng.

    16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
    Horman.

    17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
    pointer that's passed into them. Use this to properly handle
    network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event(). From Jiri
    Pirko and Timo Teräs.

    18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
    Huewe.

    19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
    O(1) calculation instead. From Eric Dumazet.

    20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
    like ipv4. From Nicolas Dichtel.

    21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

    22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
    during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding. From
    Willem de Bruijn.

    23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
    Dumazet.

    24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
    burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead. Also
    from Eric Dumazet.

    25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
    from Vlad Yasevich.

    26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets. From Lorenzo Colitti.

    27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
    too, from David Majnemer.

    28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
    to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.

    29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
    upd_v6_push_pending_frames(). From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

    Length limits should be about the space available in the destination,
    not repurposed as a method to either always include or always exclude a
    trailing NULL byte. Either the NULL should always be copied (using
    strlcpy), or it should not be copied (using something like memcpy).
    Readable code should not depend on the weird behavior of strncpy when it
    hits the length limit. Better to avoid the anti-pattern entirely.

  • Whenever a DASD request encounters a timeout we might
    need to abort all outstanding requests on this or
    even other devices.

    This is especially useful if one wants to fail all
    devices on one side of a RAID10 configuration, even
    though only one device exhibited an error.

    To handle this I've introduced a new device flag
    DASD_FLAG_ABORTIO.
    This flag is evaluated in __dasd_process_request_queue()
    and will invoke blk_abort_request() for all
    outstanding requests with DASD_CQR_FLAGS_FAILFAST set.
    This will cause any of these requests to be aborted
    immediately if the blk_timeout function is activated.

    The DASD_FLAG_ABORTIO is also evaluated in
    __dasd_process_request_queue to abort all
    new request which would have the
    DASD_CQR_FLAGS_FAILFAST bit set.

    The flag can be set with the new ioctls 'BIODASDABORTIO'
    and removed with 'BIODASDALLOWIO'.

  • This patch adds a 'timeout' attibute to the DASD driver.
    When set to non-zero, the blk_timeout function will
    be enabled with the timeout specified in the attribute.
    Setting 'timeout' to '0' will disable block timeouts.

  • The DASD driver is using FASTFAIL as an equivalent to the
    transport errors in SCSI. And the 'steal lock' function maps
    roughly to a reservation error. So we should be returning the
    appropriate error codes when completing a request.

  • Whenever a request has been aborted internally by the driver
    there is no sense data to be had. And printing lots of messages
    stalls the system, so better to print out a short one-liner.

  • This patch implements generic block layer timeout handling
    callbacks for DASDs. When the timeout expires the respective
    cqr is aborted.

    With this timeout handler time-critical request abort
    is guaranteed as the abort does not depend on the internal
    state of the various DASD driver queues.

  • Originally the DASD device tasklet would process the entries on
    the ccw_queue until the first non-final request was found.
    Which was okay as long as all requests have the same retries and
    expires parameter.
    However, as we're now allowing to modify both it is possible to
    have requests _after_ the first request which already have expired.
    So we need to check all requests in the device tasklet.

  • Instead of having the number of retries hard-coded in the various
    functions we should be using a default retry value, which can
    be modified via sysfs.

  • Using static data for fields which are accessed by HW will fail if
    the driver is build as a module (since this would be vmalloc'ed
    memory). This Bug was revealed via
    "s390: remove virt_to_phys implementation" - the old virt_to_phys
    implementation would have translated the address but it was not
    guaranteed that the memory was contiguous.

    Fix it by putting the data on the stack.

  • There are three users of adapter interrupts: AP, QDIO and PCI. Each
    registers a single adapter interrupt with independent ISCs. Define
    a "struct airq" with the interrupt handler, a pointer and a mask for
    the local summary indicator and the ISC for the adapter interrupt
    source. Convert the indicator array with its fixed number of adapter
    interrupt sources per ISE to an array of hlists. This removes the
    limitation to 32 adapter interrupts per ISC and allows for arbitrary
    memory locations for the local summary indicator.

  • Copy the interrupt parameters from the lowcore to the pt_regs structure
    in entry[64].S and reduce the arguments of the low level interrupt handler
    to the pt_regs pointer only. In addition move the test-pending-interrupt
    loop from do_IRQ to entry[64].S to make sure that interrupt information
    is always delivered via pt_regs.
