2009-01-09md: don't retry recovery of raid1 that fails due to error on source drive.NeilBrown
If a raid1 has only one working drive and it has a sector which gives an error on read, then an attempt to recover onto a spare will fail, but as the single remaining drive is not removed from the array, the recovery will be immediately re-attempted, resulting in an infinite recovery loop. So detect this situation and don't retry recovery once an error on the lone remaining drive is detected. Allow recovery to be retried once every time a spare is added in case the problem wasn't actually a media error. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-01-09md: Allow md devices to be created by name.NeilBrown
Using sequential numbers to identify md devices is somewhat artificial. Using names can be a lot more user-friendly. Also, creating md devices by opening the device special file is a bit awkward. So this patch provides a new option for creating and naming devices. Writing a name such as "md_home" to /sys/modules/md_mod/parameters/new_array will cause an array with that name to be created. It will appear in /sys/block/ /proc/partitions and /proc/mdstat as 'md_home'. It will have an arbitrary minor number allocated. md devices that a created by an open are destroyed on the last close when the device is inactive. For named md devices, they will not be destroyed until the array is explicitly stopped, either with the STOP_ARRAY ioctl or by writing 'clear' to /sys/block/md_XXXX/md/array_state. The name of the array must start 'md_' to avoid conflict with other devices. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-01-09md: make devices disappear when they are no longer needed.NeilBrown
Currently md devices, once created, never disappear until the module is unloaded. This is essentially because the gendisk holds a reference to the mddev, and the mddev holds a reference to the gendisk, this a circular reference. If we drop the reference from mddev to gendisk, then we need to ensure that the mddev is destroyed when the gendisk is destroyed. However it is not possible to hook into the gendisk destruction process to enable this. So we drop the reference from the gendisk to the mddev and destroy the gendisk when the mddev gets destroyed. However this has a complication. Between the call __blkdev_get->get_gendisk->kobj_lookup->md_probe and the call __blkdev_get->md_open there is no obvious way to hold a reference on the mddev any more, so unless something is done, it will disappear and gendisk will be destroyed prematurely. Also, once we decide to destroy the mddev, there will be an unlockable moment before the gendisk is unlinked (blk_unregister_region) during which a new reference to the gendisk can be created. We need to ensure that this reference can not be used. i.e. the ->open must fail. So: 1/ in md_probe we set a flag in the mddev (hold_active) which indicates that the array should be treated as active, even though there are no references, and no appearance of activity. This is cleared by md_release when the device is closed if it is no longer needed. This ensures that the gendisk will survive between md_probe and md_open. 2/ In md_open we check if the mddev we expect to open matches the gendisk that we did open. If there is a mismatch we return -ERESTARTSYS and modify __blkdev_get to retry from the top in that case. In the -ERESTARTSYS sys case we make sure to wait until the old gendisk (that we succeeded in opening) is really gone so we loop at most once. Some udev configurations will always open an md device when it first appears. If we allow an md device that was just created by an open to disappear on an immediate close, then this can race with such udev configurations and result in an infinite loop the device being opened and closed, then re-open due to the 'ADD' even from the first open, and then close and so on. So we make sure an md device, once created by an open, remains active at least until some md 'ioctl' has been made on it. This means that all normal usage of md devices will allow them to disappear promptly when not needed, but the worst that an incorrect usage will do it cause an inactive md device to be left in existence (it can easily be removed). As an array can be stopped by writing to a sysfs attribute echo clear > /sys/block/mdXXX/md/array_state we need to use scheduled work for deleting the gendisk and other kobjects. This allows us to wait for any pending gendisk deletion to complete by simply calling flush_scheduled_work(). Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-01-09md: need another print_sb for mdp_superblock_1Cheng Renquan
md_print_devices is called in two code path: MD_BUG(...), and md_ioctl with PRINT_RAID_DEBUG. it will dump out all in use md devices information; However, it wrongly processed two types of superblock in one: The header file <linux/raid/md_p.h> has defined two types of superblock, struct mdp_superblock_s (typedefed with mdp_super_t) according to md with metadata 0.90, and struct mdp_superblock_1 according to md with metadata 1.0 and later, These two types of superblock are very different, The md_print_devices code processed them both in mdp_super_t, that would lead to wrong informaton dump like: [ 6742.345877] [ 6742.345887] md: ********************************** [ 6742.345890] md: * <COMPLETE RAID STATE PRINTOUT> * [ 6742.345892] md: ********************************** [ 6742.345896] md1: <ram7><ram6><ram5><ram4> [ 6742.345907] md: rdev ram7, SZ:00065472 F:0 S:1 DN:3 [ 6742.345909] md: rdev superblock: [ 6742.345914] md: SB: (V:0.90.0) ID:<42ef13c7.598c059a.5f9f1645.801e9ee6> CT:4919856d [ 6742.345918] md: L5 S00065472 ND:4 RD:4 md1 LO:2 CS:65536 [ 6742.345922] md: UT:4919856d ST:1 AD:4 WD:4 FD:0 SD:0 CSUM:b7992907 E:00000001 [ 6742.345924] D 0: DISK<N:0,(1,8),R:0,S:6> [ 6742.345930] D 1: DISK<N:1,(1,10),R:1,S:6> [ 6742.345933] D 2: DISK<N:2,(1,12),R:2,S:6> [ 6742.345937] D 3: DISK<N:3,(1,14),R:3,S:6> [ 6742.345942] md: THIS: DISK<N:3,(1,14),R:3,S:6> ...

2009-01-09md: use list_for_each_entry macro directlyCheng Renquan
The rdev_for_each macro defined in <linux/raid/md_k.h> is identical to list_for_each_entry_safe, from <linux/list.h>, it should be defined to use list_for_each_entry_safe, instead of reinventing the wheel. But some calls to each_entry_safe don't really need a safe version, just a direct list_for_each_entry is enough, this could save a temp variable (tmp) in every function that used rdev_for_each. In this patch, most rdev_for_each loops are replaced by list_for_each_entry, totally save many tmp vars; and only in the other situations that will call list_del to delete an entry, the safe version is used.

2009-01-09md: raid0: make hash_spacing and preshift sector-based.Andre Noll
This patch renames the hash_spacing and preshift members of struct raid0_private_data to spacing and sector_shift respectively and changes the semantics as follows: We always have spacing = 2 * hash_spacing. In case sizeof(sector_t) > sizeof(u32) we also have sector_shift = preshift + 1 while sector_shift = preshift = 0 otherwise. Note that the values of nb_zone and zone are unaffected by these changes because in the sector_div() preceeding the assignement of these two variables both arguments double.

2009-01-08ELF: implement AT_RANDOM for glibc PRNG seedingKees Cook
While discussing[1] the need for glibc to have access to random bytes during program load, it seems that an earlier attempt to implement AT_RANDOM got stalled. This implements a random 16 byte string, available to every ELF program via a new auxv AT_RANDOM vector. [1] http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2008-10/msg00006.html Ulrich said: glibc needs right after startup a bit of random data for internal protections (stack canary etc). What is now in upstream glibc is that we always unconditionally open /dev/urandom, read some data, and use it. For every process startup. That's slow. ... The solution is to provide a limited amount of random data to the starting process in the aux vector. I suggested 16 bytes and this is what the patch implements. If we need only 16 bytes or less we use the data directly. If we need more we'll use the 16 bytes to see a PRNG. This avoids the costly /dev/urandom use and it allows the kernel to use the most adequate source of random data for this purpose. It might not be the same pool as that for /dev/urandom. Concerns were expressed about the depletion of the randomness pool. But this patch doesn't make the situation worse, it doesn't deplete entropy more than happens now.

2009-01-08pid: generalize task_active_pid_nsEric W. Biederman
Currently task_active_pid_ns is not safe to call after a task becomes a zombie and exit_task_namespaces is called, as nsproxy becomes NULL. By reading the pid namespace from the pid of the task we can trivially solve this problem at the cost of one extra memory read in what should be the same cacheline as we read the namespace from. When moving things around I have made task_active_pid_ns out of line because keeping it in pid_namespace.h would require adding includes of pid.h and sched.h that I don't think we want. This change does make task_active_pid_ns unsafe to call during copy_process until we attach a pid on the task_struct which seems to be a reasonable trade off. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2009-01-08pid: implement ns_of_pidEric W. Biederman
A current problem with the pid namespace is that it is easy to do pid related work after exit_task_namespaces which drops the nsproxy pointer. However if we are doing pid namespace related work we are always operating on some struct pid which retains the pid_namespace pointer of the pid namespace it was allocated in. So provide ns_of_pid which allows us to find the pid namespace a pid was allocated in. Using this we have the needed infrastructure to do pid namespace related work at anytime we have a struct pid, removing the chance of accidentally having a NULL pointer dereference when accessing current->nsproxy.

2009-01-08cgroups: add css_tryget()Paul Menage
Add css_tryget(), that obtains a counted reference on a CSS. It is used in situations where the caller has a "weak" reference to the CSS, i.e. one that does not protect the cgroup from removal via a reference count, but would instead be cleaned up by a destroy() callback. css_tryget() will return true on success, or false if the cgroup is being removed. This is similar to Kamezawa Hiroyuki's patch from a week or two ago, but with the difference that in the event of css_tryget() racing with a cgroup_rmdir(), css_tryget() will only return false if the cgroup really does get removed. This implementation is done by biasing css->refcnt, so that a refcnt of 1 means "releasable" and 0 means "released or releasing". In the event of a race, css_tryget() distinguishes between "released" and "releasing" by checking for the CSS_REMOVED flag in css->flags.

2009-01-08cgroups: add a per-subsystem hierarchy_mutexPaul Menage
These patches introduce new locking/refcount support for cgroups to reduce the need for subsystems to call cgroup_lock(). This will ultimately allow the atomicity of cgroup_rmdir() (which was removed recently) to be restored. These three patches give: 1/3 - introduce a per-subsystem hierarchy_mutex which a subsystem can use to prevent changes to its own cgroup tree 2/3 - use hierarchy_mutex in place of calling cgroup_lock() in the memory controller 3/3 - introduce a css_tryget() function similar to the one recently proposed by Kamezawa, but avoiding spurious refcount failures in the event of a race between a css_tryget() and an unsuccessful cgroup_rmdir() Future patches will likely involve: - using hierarchy mutex in place of cgroup_lock() in more subsystems where appropriate - restoring the atomicity of cgroup_rmdir() with respect to cgroup_create() This patch: Add a hierarchy_mutex to the cgroup_subsys object that protects changes to the hierarchy observed by that subsystem. It is taken by the cgroup subsystem (in addition to cgroup_mutex) for the following operations: - linking a cgroup into that subsystem's cgroup tree - unlinking a cgroup from that subsystem's cgroup tree - moving the subsystem to/from a hierarchy (including across the bind() callback) Thus if the subsystem holds its own hierarchy_mutex, it can safely traverse its own hierarchy.

2009-01-08memcg: fix shmem's swap accountingKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Now, you can see following even when swap accounting is enabled. 1. Create Group 01, and 02. 2. allocate a "file" on tmpfs by a task under 01. 3. swap out the "file" (by memory pressure) 4. Read "file" from a task in group 02. 5. the charge of "file" is moved to group 02. This is not ideal behavior. This is because SwapCache which was loaded by read-ahead is not taken into account.. This is a patch to fix shmem's swapcache behavior. - remove mem_cgroup_cache_charge_swapin(). - Add SwapCache handler routine to mem_cgroup_cache_charge(). By this, shmem's file cache is charged at add_to_page_cache() with GFP_NOWAIT. - pass the page of swapcache to shrink_mem_cgroup.

Currently, inactive_ratio of memcg is calculated at setting limit. because page_alloc.c does so and current implementation is straightforward porting. However, memcg introduced hierarchy feature recently.
