Milan Broz 810b492375 dm ioctl: suppress needless warning messages
The device-mapper should not send warning messages to syslog
if a device is not found. This can be done by userspace
according to the returned dm-ioctl error code.

So move these messages to debug level and use rate limiting
to not flood syslog.

Peter Jones 84c89557a3 dm ioctl: allow rename to fill empty uuid
Allow the uuid of a mapped device to be set after device creation.
Previously the uuid (which is optional) could only be set by
DM_DEV_CREATE.  If no uuid was supplied it could not be set later.

Sometimes it's necessary to create the device before the uuid is known,
and in such cases the uuid must be filled in after the creation.

This patch extends DM_DEV_RENAME to accept a uuid accompanied by
a new flag DM_UUID_FLAG.  This can only be done once and if no
uuid was previously supplied.  It cannot be used to change an
existing uuid.

DM_VERSION_MINOR is also bumped to 19 to indicate this interface
extension is available.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Mike Snitzer 4a0b4ddf26 dm: do not initialise full request queue when bio based
Change bio-based mapped devices no longer to have a fully initialized
request_queue (request_fn, elevator, etc).  This means bio-based DM
devices no longer register elevator sysfs attributes ('iosched/' tree
or 'scheduler' other than "none").

In contrast, a request-based DM device will continue to have a full
request_queue and will register elevator sysfs attributes.  Therefore
a user can determine a DM device's type by checking if elevator sysfs
attributes exist.

First allocate a minimalist request_queue structure for a DM device
(needed for both bio and request-based DM).

Initialization of a full request_queue is deferred until it is known
that the DM device is request-based, at the end of the table load
sequence.

Factor DM device's request_queue initialization:
- common to both request-based and bio-based into dm_init_md_queue().
- specific to request-based into dm_init_request_based_queue().

The md->type_lock mutex is used to protect md->queue, in addition to
md->type, during table_load().

A DM device's first table_load will establish the immutable md->type.
But md->queue initialization, based on md->type, may fail at that time
(because blk_init_allocated_queue cannot allocate memory).  Therefore
any subsequent table_load must (re)try dm_setup_md_queue independently of
establishing md->type.

Mike Snitzer a5664dad7e dm ioctl: make bio or request based device type immutable
Determine whether a mapped device is bio-based or request-based when
loading its first (inactive) table and don't allow that to be changed
later.

This patch performs different device initialisation in each of the two
cases.  (We don't think it's necessary to add code to support changing
between the two types.)

Allowed md->type transitions:
  DM_TYPE_NONE to DM_TYPE_BIO_BASED
  DM_TYPE_NONE to DM_TYPE_REQUEST_BASED

We now prevent table_load from replacing the inactive table with a
conflicting type of table even after an explicit table_clear.

Introduce 'type_lock' into the struct mapped_device to protect md->type
and to prepare for the next patch that will change the queue
initialization and allocate memory while md->type_lock is held.

Kiyoshi Ueda 3f77316de0 dm: separate device deletion from dm_put
This patch separates the device deletion code from dm_put()
to make sure the deletion happens in the process context.

By this patch, device deletion always occurs in an ioctl (process)
context and dm_put() can be called in interrupt context.
As a result, the request-based dm's bad dm_put() usage pointed out
by Mikulas below disappears.
    http://marc.info/?l=dm-devel&m=126699981019735&w=2

Without this patch, I confirmed there is a case to crash the system:
    dm_put() => dm_table_destroy() => vfree() => BUG_ON(in_interrupt())

Some more backgrounds and details:
In request-based dm, a device opener can remove a mapped_device
while the last request is still completing, because bios in the last
request complete first and then the device opener can close and remove
the mapped_device before the last request completes:
  CPU0                                          CPU1
  =================================================================
  <<INTERRUPT>>
  blk_end_request_all(clone_rq)
    blk_update_request(clone_rq)
      bio_endio(clone_bio) == end_clone_bio
        blk_update_request(orig_rq)
          bio_endio(orig_bio)
                                                <<I/O completed>>
                                                dm_blk_close()
                                                dev_remove()
                                                  dm_put(md)
                                                    <<Free md>>
   blk_finish_request(clone_rq)
     ....
     dm_end_request(clone_rq)
       free_rq_clone(clone_rq)
       blk_end_request_all(orig_rq)
       rq_completed(md)

So request-based dm used dm_get()/dm_put() to hold md for each I/O
until its request completion handling is fully done.
However, the final dm_put() can call the device deletion code which
must not be run in interrupt context and may cause kernel panic.

To solve the problem, this patch moves the device deletion code,
dm_destroy(), to predetermined places that is actually deleting
the mapped_device in ioctl (process) context, and changes dm_put()
just to decrement the reference count of the mapped_device.
By this change, dm_put() can be used in any context and the symmetric
model below is introduced:
    dm_create():  create a mapped_device
    dm_destroy(): destroy a mapped_device
    dm_get():     increment the reference count of a mapped_device
    dm_put():     decrement the reference count of a mapped_device

dm_destroy() waits for all references of the mapped_device to disappear,
then deletes the mapped_device.

dm_destroy() uses active waiting with msleep(1), since deleting
the mapped_device isn't performance-critical task.
And since at this point, nobody opens the mapped_device and no new
reference will be taken, the pending counts are just for racing
completing activity and will eventually decrease to zero.

For the unlikely case of the forced module unload, dm_destroy_immediate(),
which doesn't wait and forcibly deletes the mapped_device, is also
introduced and used in dm_hash_remove_all().  Otherwise, "rmmod -f"
may be stuck and never return.
And now, because the mapped_device is deleted at this point, subsequent
accesses to the mapped_device may cause NULL pointer references.

Mikulas Patocka 6076905b5e dm: avoid _hash_lock deadlock
Fix a reported deadlock if there are still unprocessed multipath events
on a device that is being removed.

_hash_lock is held during dev_remove while trying to send the
outstanding events.  Sending the events requests the _hash_lock
again in dm_copy_name_and_uuid.

This patch introduces a separate lock around regions that modify the
link to the hash table (dm_set_mdptr) or the name or uuid so that
dm_copy_name_and_uuid no longer needs _hash_lock.

Additionally, dm_copy_name_and_uuid can only be called if md exists
so we can drop the dm_get() and dm_put() which can lead to a BUG()
while md is being freed.

The deadlock:

This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
other userspace process applies the expected permissions.

This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.

Kiyoshi Ueda e6ee8c0b76 dm: enable request based option
This patch enables request-based dm.

o Request-based dm and bio-based dm coexist, since there are
  some target drivers which are more fitting to bio-based dm.
  Also, there are other bio-based devices in the kernel
  (e.g. md, loop).
  Since bio-based device can't receive struct request,
  there are some limitations on device stacking between
  bio-based and request-based.

                     type of underlying device
                   bio-based      request-based
   ----------------------------------------------
    bio-based         OK                OK
    request-based     --                OK

  The device type is recognized by the queue flag in the kernel,
  so dm follows that.

o The type of a dm device is decided at the first table binding time.
  Once the type of a dm device is decided, the type can't be changed.

o Mempool allocations are deferred to at the table loading time, since
  mempools for request-based dm are different from those for bio-based
  dm and needed mempool type is fixed by the type of table.

o Currently, request-based dm supports only tables that have a single
  target.  To support multiple targets, we need to support request
  splitting or prevent bio/request from spanning multiple targets.
  The former needs lots of changes in the block layer, and the latter
  needs that all target drivers support merge() function.
  Both will take a time.

Milan Broz 60935eb21d dm ioctl: support cookies for udev
Add support for passing a 32 bit "cookie" into the kernel with the
DM_SUSPEND, DM_DEV_RENAME and DM_DEV_REMOVE ioctls.  The (unsigned)
value of this cookie is returned to userspace alongside the uevents
issued by these ioctls in the variable DM_COOKIE.

This means the userspace process issuing these ioctls can be notified
by udev after udev has completed any actions triggered.

To minimise the interface extension, we pass the cookie into the
kernel in the event_nr field which is otherwise unused when calling
these ioctls.  Incrementing the version number allows userspace to
determine in advance whether or not the kernel supports the cookie.
If the kernel does support this but userspace does not, there should
be no impact as the new variable will just get ignored.

When renaming a mapped device validate the length of the new name.

The rename ioctl accepted any correctly-terminated string enclosed

Mikulas Patocka d58168763f dm table: rework reference counting
Rework table reference counting.

The existing code uses a reference counter. When the last reference is
dropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called.
Table reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other
kernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all).
If the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table
destructor is called from almost random kernel code.

This leads to various problems:
* dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the
  destructor, which calls some sleeping function.
* the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the
  same process.
* stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table
  constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful
  return from "dmsetup remove". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing
  of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers.

The patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be
called only at predetermined places.

The table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device->map
or hash_cell->new_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted
in table->holders.  A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions
is used for table creation/destruction.

Temporary references from the other code increase table->holders. A pair
of dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it.

When the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table->holders to
reach 0. Then, we call the table destructor.  We use active waiting with
msleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years)
and removing the device isn't performance-critical task: the user doesn't
care if it takes one tick more or not.

This way, the destructor is called only at specific points
(dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy
destruction can't happen.

Finally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested().

* Implement disk_devt() and part_devt() and use them to directly
  access devt instead of computing it from ->major and ->first_minor.

  Note that all references to ->major and ->first_minor outside of
  block layer is used to determine devt of the disk (the part0) and as
  ->major and ->first_minor will continue to represent devt for the
  disk, converting these users aren't strictly necessary.  However,
  convert them for consistency.

* Implement disk_max_parts() to avoid directly deferencing
  genhd->minors.

* Update bdget_disk() such that it doesn't assume consecutive minor
  space.

* Move devt computation from register_disk() to add_disk() and make it

Jun'ichi Nomura 512875bd96 dm: table detect io beyond device
This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is
outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed.
(Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first,
for example.)

The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target()
always returns a valid pointer.  It may fail if a bio arrives from the
block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM
btree.

This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will
be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device.

After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message()
check for this condition using
dm_target_is_valid().

Sample test script to trigger oops:

Milan Broz 027d50f92e dm io:ctl use constant struct size
Make size of dm_ioctl struct always 312 bytes on all supported
architectures.

This change retains compatibility with already-compiled code because
it uses an embedded offset to locate the payload that follows the
structure.

On 64-bit architectures there is no change at all; on 32-bit
we are increasing the size of dm-ioctl from 308 to 312 bytes.

Currently with 32-bit userspace / 64-bit kernel on x86_64
some ioctls (including rename, message) are incorrectly rejected
by the comparison against 'param + 1'.  This breaks userspace
lvrename and multipath 'fail_if_no_path' changes, for example.

(BTW Device-mapper uses its own versioning and ignores the ioctl
size bits.  Only the generic ioctl compat code on mixed arches
checks them, and that will continue to accept both sizes for now,
but we intend to list 308 as deprecated and eventually remove it.)

Alasdair G Kergon bfc5ecdf48 [PATCH] dm: fix find_device race
There is a race between dev_create() and find_device().

If the mdptr has not yet been stored against a device, find_device() needs to
behave as though no device was found.  It already returns NULL, but there is a
dm_put() missing: it must drop the reference dm_get_md() took.

The bug was introduced by dm-fix-mapped-device-ref-counting.patch.

It manifests itself if another dm ioctl attempts to reference a newly-created
device while the device creation ioctl is still running.  The consequence is
that the device cannot be removed until the machine is rebooted.  Certain udev
configurations can lead to this happening.
