| * | | | padata: Remove padata_get_cpumaskSteffen Klassert2010-07-311-35/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A function that copies the padata cpumasks to a user buffer is a bit error prone. The cpumask can change any time so we can't be sure to have the right cpumask when using this function. A user who is interested in the padata cpumasks should register to the padata cpumask notifier chain instead. Users of padata_get_cpumask are already updated, so we can remove it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cpumask separation work assumes the cpumask dependend recources present regardless of valid or invalid cpumasks.

It allows user to make more thin and sophisticated configurations of padata framework. For example user may bind parallel and serial workers to non-intersecting CPU groups to gain better performance. Also each padata instance has notifiers chain for its cpumasks now. If either parallel or serial or both masks were changed all interested subsystems will get notification about that. It's especially useful if padata user uses algorithm for callback CPU selection according to serial cpumask.

This patch changes this to count the number of processed objects global. So we can calculate the sequence number and the percpu reorder queue of the next object that needs serialization without searching through the percpu reorder queues. This avoids some accesses to memory of foreign cpus. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

This patch changes this to return zero on success. Also the only user of padata, pcrypt is adapted to convert a return of zero to -EINPROGRESS within the crypto layer. This also removes the pcrypt fallback if padata_do_parallel was called on a not running padata instance as we can't handle it anymore. This fallback was unused, so it's save to remove it.

| * | | | padata: Handle empty padata cpumasksSteffen Klassert2010-07-141-11/+50

In this case we get a division by zero in padata_alloc_pd and we end up with a useless padata instance. Padata can end up with an empty cpumask for two reasons: 1. A user removed the last cpu that belongs to the padata cpumask and the active cpumask. 2. The last cpu that belongs to the padata cpumask and the active cpumask goes offline. We introduce a function padata_validate_cpumask to check if the padata cpumask does intersect with the active cpumask. If the cpumasks do not intersect we mark the instance as invalid, so it can't be used. We do not allocate the cpumask dependend recources in this case. This fixes the division by zero and keeps the padate instance in a consistent state. It's not possible to trigger this bug by now because the only padata user, pcrypt uses always the possible cpumask.

This will be used to mark a padata instance as invalid, if the padata cpumask does not intersect with the active cpumask. we change padata_start to return an error if the PADATA_INVALID is set.

Simply redoing the implementation in terms of a plist gets rid of a lot of this junk (although there are several other strange things that could do with tidying up, like pm_qos_request_list has to carry the pm_qos_class with every node, simply because it doesn't get passed in to pm_qos_update_request even though every caller knows full well what parameter it's updating). I think this redo is a win independent of android, so we should do something like this now.

Generally, there are two problems in that area. First, if a wakeup event occurs exactly when /sys/power/state is being written to, it may be delivered to user space right before the freezer kicks in, so the user space consumer of the event may not be able to process it before the system is suspended. Second, if a wakeup event occurs after user space has been frozen, it is not generally guaranteed that the ongoing transition of the system into a sleep state will be aborted. To address these issues introduce a new global sysfs attribute, /sys/power/wakeup_count, associated with a running counter of wakeup events and three helper functions, pm_stay_awake(), pm_relax(), and pm_wakeup_event(), that may be used by kernel subsystems to control the behavior of this attribute and to request the PM core to abort system transitions into a sleep state already in progress. The /sys/power/wakeup_count file may be read from or written to by user space. Reads will always succeed (unless interrupted by a signal) and return the current value of the wakeup events counter. Writes, however, will only succeed if the written number is equal to the current value of the wakeup events counter. If a write is successful, it will cause the kernel to save the current value of the wakeup events counter and to abort the subsequent system transition into a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write has returned. [The assumption is that before writing to /sys/power/state user space will first read from /sys/power/wakeup_count. Next, user space consumers of wakeup events will have a chance to acknowledge or veto the upcoming system transition to a sleep state. Finally, if the transition is allowed to proceed, /sys/power/wakeup_count will be written to and if that succeeds, /sys/power/state will be written to as well. Still, if any wakeup events are reported to the PM core by kernel subsystems after that point, the transition will be aborted.] Additionally, put a wakeup events counter into struct dev_pm_info and make these per-device wakeup event counters available via sysfs, so that it's possible to check the activity of various wakeup event sources within the kernel. To illustrate how subsystems can use pm_wakeup_event(), make the low-level PCI runtime PM wakeup-handling code use it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

What happens is that get_task_cred() can race with commit_creds(): TASK_1 TASK_2 RCU_CLEANER -->get_task_cred(TASK_2) rcu_read_lock() __cred = __task_cred(TASK_2) -->commit_creds() old_cred = TASK_2->real_cred TASK_2->real_cred = ... put_cred(old_cred) call_rcu(old_cred) [__cred->usage == 0] get_cred(__cred) [__cred->usage == 1] rcu_read_unlock() -->put_cred_rcu() [__cred->usage == 1] panic() However, since a tasks credentials are generally not changed very often, we can reasonably make use of a loop involving reading the creds pointer and using atomic_inc_not_zero() to attempt to increment it if it hasn't already hit zero. If successful, we can safely return the credentials in the knowledge that, even if the task we're accessing has released them, they haven't gone to the RCU cleanup code. We then change task_state() in procfs to use get_task_cred() rather than calling get_cred() on the result of __task_cred(), as that suffers from the same problem. Without this change, a BUG_ON in __put_cred() or in put_cred_rcu() can be tripped when it is noticed that the usage count is not zero as it ought to be, for example: kernel BUG at kernel/cred.c:168! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run CPU 0 Pid: 2436, comm: master Not tainted 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.x86_64 #1 0HR330/OptiPlex 745 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81069881>] [<ffffffff81069881>] __put_cred+0xc/0x45 RSP: 0018:ffff88019e7e9eb8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffff880161514480 RCX: 00000000ffffffff RDX: 00000000ffffffff RSI: ffff880140c690c0 RDI: ffff880140c690c0 RBP: ffff88019e7e9eb8 R08: 00000000000000d0 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000040 R12: ffff880140c690c0 R13: ffff88019e77aea0 R14: 00007fff336b0a5c R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 00007f12f50d97c0(0000) GS:ffff880007400000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f8f461bc000 CR3: 00000001b26ce000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process master (pid: 2436, threadinfo ffff88019e7e8000, task ffff88019e77aea0) Stack: ffff88019e7e9ec8 ffffffff810698cd ffff88019e7e9ef8 ffffffff81069b45 <0> ffff880161514180 ffff880161514480 ffff880161514180 0000000000000000 <0> ffff88019e7e9f28 ffffffff8106aace 0000000000000001 0000000000000246 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810698cd>] put_cred+0x13/0x15 [<ffffffff81069b45>] commit_creds+0x16b/0x175 [<ffffffff8106aace>] set_current_groups+0x47/0x4e [<ffffffff8106ac89>] sys_setgroups+0xf6/0x105 [<ffffffff81009b02>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: 48 8d 71 ff e8 7e 4e 15 00 85 c0 78 0b 8b 75 ec 48 89 df e8 ef 4a 15 00 48 83 c4 18 5b c9 c3 55 8b 07 8b 07 48 89 e5 85 c0 74 04 <0f> 0b eb fe 65 48 8b 04 25 00 cc 00 00 48 3b b8 58 04 00 00 75 RIP [<ffffffff81069881>] __put_cred+0xc/0x45 RSP <ffff88019e7e9eb8> ---[ end trace df391256a100ebdd ]--- Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

None of the paths looks it needs the credentials check, though. Different (e)uids shouldn't matter at all because the only thing that is important for shared futex is the accessibility of the shared memory. The credentail check results in glibc assert failure or process hang (if glibc is compiled without assert support) for shared robust pthread mutex with priority inheritance if a process tries to lock already held lock owned by a process with a different euid: pthread_mutex_lock.c:312: __pthread_mutex_lock_full: Assertion `(-(e)) != 3 || !robust' failed. The problem is that futex_lock_pi_atomic which is called when we try to lock already held lock checks the current holder (tid is stored in the futex value) to get the PI state. It uses lookup_pi_state which in turn gets task struct from futex_find_get_task. ESRCH is returned either when the task is not found or if credentials check fails. futex_lock_pi_atomic simply returns if it gets ESRCH. glibc code, however, doesn't expect that robust lock returns with ESRCH because it should get either success or owner died.
