* floppy: Add an extra bound check on ioctl argumentsArjan van de Ven2009-12-151-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gcc is not convinced that the floppy.c ioctl has sufficient bound checks: In function `copy_from_user', inlined from `fd_copyin' at drivers/block/floppy.c:3080, inlined from `fd_ioctl' at drivers/block/floppy.c:3503: arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_32.h:211: warning: call to `copy_from_user_overflow' declared with attribute warning: copy_from_user buffer size is not provably correct And frankly, as a human I have a hard time proving the same more or less (the size comes from the ioctl argument. humpf. maybe. the code isn't very nice) This patch adds an explicit check to make 100% sure it's safe, better than finding out later that there indeed was a gap.

* floppy: fix hibernationOndrej Zary2009-06-101-1/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on Ingo Molnar's patch from 2006, this makes the floppy work after resume from hibernation, at least on my machine. This fix resets the floppy controller on resume. It was experimentally determined to bring the controller back to life - we don't really know why it works. floppy_init() does the same thing at boot/modprobe time.

* block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetchTejun Heo2009-05-111-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution. A request is always acquired from the request queue via elv_next_request(). After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it or process it without dequeueing. Dequeue allows elv_next_request() to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight. Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with segments only without considering request boundary. However, the benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API ambiguity is increasing. Segment based drivers are usually for very old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer and its more modern users. Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing model. This patch completes the API transition by... * renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request() * renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request() * adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start * disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests * applying new API to all LLDs Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

* floppy: request and release only the ports we actually usePhilippe De Muyter2009-02-181-27/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The floppy driver requests an I/O port it doesn't need, and sometimes this causes a conflict with a motherboard device reported by PNPBIOS. This patch makes the floppy driver request and release only the ports it actually uses. It also factors out the request/release stuff and the io-ports list so they're all in one place now. The current floppy driver uses only these ports: 0x3f2 (FD_DOR) 0x3f4 (FD_STATUS) 0x3f5 (FD_DATA) 0x3f7 (FD_DCR/FD_DIR) but it requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 and 0x3f7, which includes the unused port 0x3f3. Some BIOSes report 0x3f3 as a motherboard resource. The PNP system driver reserves that, which causes a conflict when the floppy driver requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 later. Philippe reported that this conflict broke the floppy driver between 2.6.11 and 2.6.22. His PNPBIOS reports these devices: $ cat 00:07/id 00:07/resources # motherboard device PNP0c02 state = active io 0x80-0x80 io 0x10-0x1f io 0x22-0x3f io 0x44-0x5f io 0x90-0x9f io 0xa2-0xbf io 0x3f0-0x3f1 io 0x3f3-0x3f3 $ cat 00:03/id 00:03/resources # floppy device PNP0700 state = active io 0x3f4-0x3f5 io 0x3f2-0x3f2 Reference: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/31/162 Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be> Reported-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be> Tested-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be> Cc: Adam M Belay <abelay@mit.edu> Cc: Robert Hancock <hancockrwd@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers; to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following: 1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset. 2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers are converted in this series. 3) kill the old (renamed) methods. Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver debugging if anything goes wrong.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current floppy_struct allows floppies to number sectors starting from 0 or 1. This patch allows arbitrary first-sector numbers - for example, 0xC1 for Amstrad CPC disks. This extends the existing 1-bit field (FD_ZEROBASED, bit 2 of stretch) to 8 bits (FD_SECTMASK, bits 2 to 9). Currently 0x00 denotes a first sector number of 1, and 0x01 denotes a first sector number of 0. We extend this by interpreting FD_SECTMASK as the first sector number with the LSB flipped.

To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution. Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch). However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the work_struct by calling work_release(). In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR). Signed-Off-By: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
* WorkStruct: Merge the pending bit into the wq_data pointerDavid Howells2006-11-221-2/+2

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

* [PATCH] lockdep: floppy.c irq release fixIngo Molnar2006-07-031-38/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lock validator triggered a number of bugs in the floppy driver, all related to the floppy driver allocating and freeing irq and dma resources from interrupt context. The initial solution was to use schedule_work() to push this into process context, but this caused further problems: for example the current floppy driver in -mm2 is totally broken and all floppy commands time out with an error. (as reported by Barry K. Nathan) This patch tries another solution: simply get rid of all that dynamic IRQ and DMA allocation/freeing. I doubt it made much sense back in the heydays of floppies (if two devices raced for DMA or IRQ resources then we didnt handle those cases too gracefully anyway), and today it makes near zero sense. So the new code does the simplest and most straightforward thing: allocate IRQ and DMA resources at module init time, and free them at module removal time. Dont try to release while the driver is operational. This, besides making the floppy driver functional again has an added bonus, floppy IRQ stats are finally persistent and visible in /proc/interrupts: 6: 63 XT-PIC-level floppy Besides normal floppy IO i have also tested IO error handling, motor-off timeouts, etc. - and everything seems to be working fine.
