* driver core : Fix use after free of dev->parent in device_shutdownBenson Leung2013-09-261-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The put_device(dev) at the bottom of the loop of device_shutdown may result in the dev being cleaned up. In device_create_release, the dev is kfreed. However, device_shutdown attempts to use the dev pointer again after put_device by referring to dev->parent. Copy the parent pointer instead to avoid this condition. This bug was found on Chromium OS's chromeos-3.8, which is based on v3.8.11. See bug report : https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=297842 This can easily be reproduced when shutting down with hidraw devices that report battery condition. Two examples are the HP Bluetooth Mouse X4000b and the Apple Magic Mouse. For example, with the magic mouse : The dev in question is "hidraw0" dev->parent is "magicmouse" In the course of the shutdown for this device, the input event cleanup calls a put on hidraw0, decrementing its reference count. When we finally get to put_device(dev) in device_shutdown, kobject_cleanup is called and device_create_release does kfree(dev). dev->parent is no longer valid, and we may crash in put_device(dev->parent). This change should be applied on any kernel with this change : d1c6c030fcec6f860d9bb6c632a3ebe62e28440b Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Benson Leung <bleung@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

| * driver core / ACPI: Avoid device hot remove locking issuesRafael J. Wysocki2013-08-291-15/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | device_hotplug_lock is held around the acpi_bus_trim() call in acpi_scan_hot_remove() which generally removes devices (it removes ACPI device objects at least, but it may also remove "physical" device objects through .detach() callbacks of ACPI scan handlers). Thus, potentially, device sysfs attributes are removed under that lock and to remove those attributes it is necessary to hold the s_active references of their directory entries for writing. On the other hand, the execution of a .show() or .store() callback from a sysfs attribute is carried out with that attribute's s_active reference held for reading. Consequently, if any device sysfs attribute that may be removed from within acpi_scan_hot_remove() through acpi_bus_trim() has a .store() or .show() callback which acquires device_hotplug_lock, the execution of that callback may deadlock with the removal of the attribute. [Unfortunately, the "online" device attribute of CPUs and memory blocks is one of them.] To avoid such deadlocks, make all of the sysfs attribute callbacks that need to lock device hotplug, for example store_online(), use a special function, lock_device_hotplug_sysfs(), to lock device hotplug and return the result of that function immediately if it is not zero. This will cause the s_active reference of the directory entry in question to be released and the syscall to be restarted if device_hotplug_lock cannot be acquired. [show_online() actually doesn't need to lock device hotplug, but it is useful to serialize it with respect to device_offline() and device_online() for the same device (in case user space attempts to run them concurrently) which can be done with the help of device_lock().] Reported-by: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Reported-and-tested-by: Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Suggested-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight. We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers and a bunch of cleanups all over. Highlights: - Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures. It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example, if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive alternative and it had to be addressed. However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a patient who's riding a bike. So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing (a month ago), nobody has complained. As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug code. - Lighter weight freezing of tasks. These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide to report a failure is reduced too. Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is generally unsafe and shouldn't happen). - cpufreq updates First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa has identified the root cause. Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu. Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia, Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian. - ACPICA update A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream. During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set. Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and Zhang Rui. - cpuidle updates New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek. Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel Lezcano. - ACPI power management updates Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection routine. - ACPI documentation updates Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is updated by Hanjun Guo. - Assorted ACPI updates We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for reverting commit 9f29ab11ddbf ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to the core. A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be fixed on some systems. A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by Mika Westerberg. The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From Jeff Wu. Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues. Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus. The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly. Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi Kani. - Assorted power management updates The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not necessary any more after that modification). The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect the "runtime idle" behavior change). New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara (<keun-o.park@windriver.com>). PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu. Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan. - devfreq updates New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan. Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham, Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun. - OMAP power management updates Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) SmartReflex voltage control driver updates from Andrii Tseglytskyi and Nishanth Menon." * tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (162 commits) cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume ACPI / PM: Fix possible NULL pointer deref in acpi_pm_device_sleep_state() PM / Sleep: Warn about system time after resume with pm_trace cpufreq: don't leave stale policy pointer in cdbs->cur_policy acpi-cpufreq: Add new sysfs attribute freqdomain_cpus cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized ACPI: implement acpi_os_get_timer() according the spec ACPI / EC: Add HP Folio 13 to ec_dmi_table in order to skip DSDT scan ACPI: Add CMOS RTC Operation Region handler support ACPI / processor: Drop unused variable from processor_perflib.c cpufreq: tegra: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: s3c64xx: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: omap: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: imx6q: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: exynos: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: dbx500: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: davinci: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: arm-big-little: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: powernow-k8: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: pcc: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases ...

For example, that may happen for the last CPU in the system or for memory modules holding kernel memory. In those cases it is nice to be able to check if the given device can be gracefully hot-removed before triggering a removal procedure that cannot be aborted or reversed. Unfortunately, however, the kernel currently doesn't provide any support for that. To address that deficiency, introduce support for offline and online operations that can be performed on devices, respectively, before a hot-removal and in case when it is necessary (or convenient) to put a device back online after a successful offline (that has not been followed by removal). The idea is that the offline will fail whenever the given device cannot be gracefully removed from the system and it will not be allowed to use the device after a successful offline (until a subsequent online) in analogy with the existing CPU offline/online mechanism. For now, the offline and online operations are introduced at the bus type level, as that should be sufficient for the most urgent use cases (CPUs and memory modules). In the future, however, the approach may be extended to cover some more complicated device offline/online scenarios involving device drivers etc. The lock_device_hotplug() and unlock_device_hotplug() functions are introduced because subsequent patches need to put larger pieces of code under device_hotplug_lock to prevent race conditions between device offline and removal from happening.

The changes achieve the followings. - WQ_UNBOUND workqueues - the workqueues which are per-cpu - are updated to be able to interface with multiple backend worker pools. This involved a lot of churning but the end result seems actually neater as unbound workqueues are now a lot closer to per-cpu ones. - The ability to interface with multiple backend worker pools are used to implement unbound workqueues with custom attributes. Currently the supported attributes are the nice level and CPU affinity. It may be expanded to include cgroup association in future. The attributes can be specified either by calling apply_workqueue_attrs() or through /sys/bus/workqueue/WQ_NAME/* if the workqueue in question is exported through sysfs. The backend worker pools are keyed by the actual attributes and shared by any workqueues which share the same attributes. When attributes of a workqueue are changed, the workqueue binds to the worker pool with the specified attributes while leaving the work items which are already executing in its previous worker pools alone. This allows converting custom worker pool implementations which want worker attribute tuning to use workqueues. The writeback pool is already converted in block tree and there are a couple others are likely to follow including btrfs io workers. - WQ_UNBOUND's ability to bind to multiple worker pools is also used to make it NUMA-aware. Because there's no association between work item issuer and the specific worker assigned to execute it, before this change, using unbound workqueue led to unnecessary cross-node bouncing and it couldn't be helped by autonuma as it requires tasks to have implicit node affinity and workers are assigned randomly. After these changes, an unbound workqueue now binds to multiple NUMA-affine worker pools so that queued work items are executed in the same node. This is turned on by default but can be disabled system-wide or for individual workqueues. Crypto was requesting NUMA affinity as encrypting data across different nodes can contribute noticeable overhead and doing it per-cpu was too limiting for certain cases and IO throughput could be bottlenecked by one CPU being fully occupied while others have idle cycles. While the new features required a lot of changes including restructuring locking, it didn't complicate the execution paths much. The unbound workqueue handling is now closer to per-cpu ones and the new features are implemented by simply associating a workqueue with different sets of backend worker pools without changing queue, execution or flush paths. As such, even though the amount of change is very high, I feel relatively safe in that it isn't likely to cause subtle issues with basic correctness of work item execution and handling. If something is wrong, it's likely to show up as being associated with worker pools with the wrong attributes or OOPS while workqueue attributes are being changed or during CPU hotplug. While this creates more backend worker pools, it doesn't add too many more workers unless, of course, there are many workqueues with unique combinations of attributes. Assuming everything else is the same, NUMA awareness costs an extra worker pool per NUMA node with online CPUs. There are also a couple things which are being routed outside the workqueue tree. - block tree pulled in workqueue for-3.10 so that writeback worker pool can be converted to unbound workqueue with sysfs control exposed. This simplifies the code, makes writeback workers NUMA-aware and allows tuning nice level and CPU affinity via sysfs. - The conversion to workqueue means that there's no 1:1 association between a specific worker, which makes writeback folks unhappy as they want to be able to tell which filesystem caused a problem from backtrace on systems with many filesystems mounted. This is resolved by allowing work items to set debug info string which is printed when the task is dumped. As this change involves unifying implementations of dump_stack() and friends in arch codes, it's being routed through Andrew's -mm tree." * 'for-3.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: (84 commits) workqueue: use kmem_cache_free() instead of kfree() workqueue: avoid false negative WARN_ON() in destroy_workqueue() workqueue: update sysfs interface to reflect NUMA awareness and a kernel param to disable NUMA affinity workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues workqueue: introduce put_pwq_unlocked() workqueue: introduce numa_pwq_tbl_install() workqueue: use NUMA-aware allocation for pool_workqueues workqueue: break init_and_link_pwq() into two functions and introduce alloc_unbound_pwq() workqueue: map an unbound workqueues to multiple per-node pool_workqueues workqueue: move hot fields of workqueue_struct to the end workqueue: make workqueue->name[] fixed len workqueue: add workqueue->unbound_attrs workqueue: determine NUMA node of workers accourding to the allowed cpumask workqueue: drop 'H' from kworker names of unbound worker pools workqueue: add wq_numa_tbl_len and wq_numa_possible_cpumask[] workqueue: move pwq_pool_locking outside of get/put_unbound_pool() workqueue: fix memory leak in apply_workqueue_attrs() workqueue: fix unbound workqueue attrs hashing / comparison workqueue: fix race condition in unbound workqueue free path workqueue: remove pwq_lock which is no longer used ...
| * driver/base: implement subsys_virtual_register()Tejun Heo2013-03-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kay tells me the most appropriate place to expose workqueues to userland would be /sys/devices/virtual/workqueues/WQ_NAME which is symlinked to /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/WQ_NAME and that we're lacking a way to do that outside of driver core as virtual_device_parent() isn't exported and there's no inteface to conveniently create a virtual subsystem. This patch implements subsys_virtual_register() by factoring out subsys_register() from subsys_system_register() and using it with virtual_device_parent() as the origin directory. It's identical to subsys_system_register() other than the origin directory but we aren't gonna restrict the device names which should be used under it. This will be used to expose workqueue attributes to userland. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org>

* | driver core / PM: move the calling to device_pm_remove behind the calling to ↵LongX Zhang2012-11-151-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bus_remove_device We hit an hang issue when removing a mmc device on Medfield Android phone by sysfs interface. device_pm_remove will call pm_runtime_remove which would disable runtime PM of the device. After that pm_runtime_get* or pm_runtime_put* will be ignored. So if we disable the runtime PM before device really be removed, drivers' _remove callback may access HW even pm_runtime_get* fails. That is bad. Consider below call sequence when removing a device: device_del => device_pm_remove => class_intf->remove_dev(dev, class_intf) => pm_runtime_get_sync/put_sync => bus_remove_device => device_release_driver => pm_runtime_get_sync/put_sync remove_dev might call pm_runtime_get_sync/put_sync. Then, generic device_release_driver also calls pm_runtime_get_sync/put_sync. Since device_del => device_pm_remove firstly, later _get_sync wouldn't really wake up the device. I git log -p to find the patch which moves the calling to device_pm_remove ahead. It's below patch: commit 775b64d2b6ca37697de925f70799c710aab5849a Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Date: Sat Jan 12 20:40:46 2008 +0100 PM: Acquire device locks on suspend This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del() during suspends will block. It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr and cpuid) that need to use it. As device_pm_schedule_removal is deleted by another patch, we need also revert other parts of the patch, i.e. move the calling of device_pm_remove after the calling to bus_remove_device.

Nor is it easy to obtain the compatible list for devices. This patch generalizes the code that inserts OF_* values into the uevent device attribute so that any device that is attached to an OF node will have that information exported to userspace. Without this patch only platform devices and some powerpc-specific busses have access to this data. The original function also creates a MODALIAS property for the compatible list, but that code has not been generalized into the common case because it has the potential to break module loading on a lot of bus types. Bus types are still responsible for their own MODALIAS properties. Boot tested on ARM and compile tested on PowerPC and SPARC.
