* w1 - call request_module with w1 master mutex unlockedHans-Frieder Vogt2013-10-071-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | request_module for w1 slave modules needs to be called with the w1 master mutex unlocked. Because w1_attach_slave_device gets always(?) called with mutex locked, we need to temporarily unlock the w1 master mutex for the loading of the w1 slave module.

I was too lazy to bisect for bad commit;) Reading the code I found problematic kthread_should_stop call from netlink connector which causes the oops. After applying a patch, I've been testing owfs+w1 setup for nearly two days and it seems to work very reliable (no hangs, no memleaks etc). More detailed description and possible fix is given below: Function w1_search can be called from either kthread or netlink callback. While the former works fine, the latter causes oops due to kthread_should_stop invocation. This patch adds a check if w1_search is serving netlink command, skipping kthread_should_stop invocation if so.

* W1: split master mutex to avoid deadlocks.NeilBrown2012-06-131-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'mutex' in struct w1_master is use for two very different purposes. Firstly it protects various data structures such as the list of all slaves. Secondly it protects the w1 buss against concurrent accesses. This can lead to deadlocks when the ->probe code called while adding a slave needs to talk on the bus, as is the case for power_supply devices. ds2780 and ds2781 drivers contain a work around to track which process hold the lock simply to avoid this deadlock. bq27000 doesn't have that work around and so deadlocks. There are other possible deadlocks involving sysfs. When removing a device the sysfs s_active lock is held, so the lock that protects the slave list must take precedence over s_active. However when access power_supply attributes via sysfs, the s_active lock must take precedence over the lock that protects accesses to the bus. So to avoid deadlocks between w1 slaves and sysfs, these must be two separate locks. Making them separate means that the work around in ds2780 and ds2781 can be removed. So this patch: - adds a new mutex: "bus_mutex" which serialises access to the bus. - takes in mutex in w1_search and ds1wm_search while they access the bus for searching. The mutex is dropped before calling the callback which adds the slave. - changes all slaves to use bus_mutex instead of mutex to protect access to the bus - removes w1_ds2790_io_nolock and w1_ds2781_io_nolock, and the related code from drivers/power/ds278[01]_battery.c which calls them.

* w1: introduce a slave mutex for serializing IONeilBrown2012-06-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | w1 devices need a mutex to serial IO. Most use master->mutex. However that is used for other purposes and they can conflict. In particular master->mutex is held while w1_attach_slave_device is called. For bq27000, this registers a 'powersupply' device which tries to read the current status. The attempt to read will cause a deadlock on master->mutex. So create a new per-slave mutex and use that for serializing IO for bq27000.

* W1: feature, enable hardware strong pullupDavid Fries2008-10-161-1/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a strong pullup option to the w1 system. This supplies extra power for parasite powered devices. There is a w1_master_pullup sysfs entry and enable_pullup module parameter to enable or disable the strong pullup. The one wire bus requires at a minimum one wire and ground. The common wire is used for sending and receiving data as well as supplying power to devices that are parasite powered of which temperature sensors can be one example. The bus must be idle and left high while a temperature conversion is in progress, in addition the normal pullup resister on larger networks or even higher temperatures might not supply enough power. The pullup resister can't provide too much pullup current, because devices need to pull the bus down to write a value. This enables the strong pullup for supported hardware, which can supply more current when requested. Unsupported hardware will just delay with the bus high. The hardware USB 2490 one wire bus master has a bit on some commands which will enable the strong pullup as soon as the command finishes executing. To use strong pullup, call the new w1_next_pullup function to register the duration. The next write command will call set_pullup before sending the data, and reset the duration to zero once it returns. Switched from simple_strtol to strict_strtol.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | w1_control_thread was removed which would wake up every second and process newly registered family codes and complete some final cleanup for a removed master. Those routines were moved to the threads that were previously requesting those operations. A new function w1_reconnect_slaves takes care of reconnecting existing slave devices when a new family code is registered or removed. The removal case was missing and would cause a deadlock waiting for the family code reference count to decrease, which will now happen. A problem with registering a family code was fixed. A slave device would be unattached if it wasn't yet claimed, then attached at the end of the list, two unclaimed slaves would cause an infinite loop. The struct w1_bus_master.search now takes a pointer to the struct w1_master device to avoid searching for it, which would have caused a lock ordering deadlock with the removal of w1_control_thread.

* Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki2007-07-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

What I do: Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the .read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes. In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work. But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods. I'm not sure if I missed any. :( Why I do this: For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the struct attribute in the .show/.store method, while we can't do this for the binary attributes. I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones. So I think this patch is reasonable. :) Who benefits from it: The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs requires such an improvement. All the table binary attributes share the same .read method. Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get the table signature and instance number which are used to distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes. Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods for different ACPI table binary attributes. This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

* sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->ownerTejun Heo2007-07-111-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper, so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to accessing removed modules. This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the backing module from being unloaded. For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the following message. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/510293 (tweaked by Greg to not delete the field just yet, to make it easier to merge things properly.)

* [PATCH] w1: Added default generic read/write operations.Evgeniy Polyakov2006-06-221-1/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Special file in each w1 slave device's directory called "rw" is created each time new slave and no appropriate w1 family is registered. "rw" file supports read and write operations, which allows to perform almost any kind of operations. Each logical operation is a transaction in nature, which can contain several (two or one) low-level operations. Let's see how one can read EEPROM context: 1. one must write control buffer, i.e. buffer containing command byte and two byte address. At this step bus is reset and appropriate device is selected using either W1_SKIP_ROM or W1_MATCH_ROM command. Then provided control buffer is being written to the wire. 2. reading. This will issue reading eeprom response. It is possible that between 1. and 2. w1 master thread will reset bus for searching and slave device will be even removed, but in this case 0xff will be read, since no device was selected.
