vm: convert mtdchar mmap to vm_iomap_memory() helper

2013-04-26T04:23:49+00:00

commit 8558e4a26b00225efeb085725bc319f91201b239 upstream.

This is my example conversion of a few existing mmap users.  The mtdchar
case is actually disabled right now (and stays disabled), but I did it
because it showed up on my "git grep", and I was familiar with the code
due to fixing an overflow problem in the code in commit 9c603e53d380
("mtdchar: fix offset overflow detection").

mtd: Disable mtdchar mmap on MMU systems

2013-04-17T04:02:31+00:00

commit f5cf8f07423b2677cebebcebc863af77223a4972 upstream.

This code was broken because it assumed that all MTD devices were map-based.
Disable it for now, until it can be fixed properly for the next merge window.

mtdchar: fix offset overflow detection

2013-04-17T04:02:31+00:00

commit 9c603e53d380459fb62fec7cd085acb0b74ac18f upstream.

Sasha Levin has been running trinity in a KVM tools guest, and was able
to trigger the BUG_ON() at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:279 (verifying the range of
the memory type).  The call trace showed that it was mtdchar_mmap() that
created an invalid remap_pfn_range().

The problem is that mtdchar_mmap() does various really odd and subtle
things with the vma page offset etc, and uses the wrong types (and the
wrong overflow) detection for it.

For example, the page offset may well be 32-bit on a 32-bit
architecture, but after shifting it up by PAGE_SHIFT, we need to use a
potentially 64-bit resource_size_t to correctly hold the full value.

Also, we need to check that the vma length plus offset doesn't overflow
before we check that it is smaller than the length of the mtdmap region.

This fixes things up and tries to make the code a bit easier to read.

mtd: mtdchar: add missing initializer on raw write

2011-11-11T17:37:13+00:00

commit bf5140817b2d65faac9b32fc9057a097044ac35b upstream.

On writes in MODE_RAW the mtd_oob_ops struct is not sufficiently
initialized which may cause nandwrite to fail. With this patch
it is possible to write raw nand/oob data without additional ECC
(either for testing or when some sectors need different oob layout
e.g. bootloader) like
nandwrite  -n -r -o  /dev/mtd0

mtd: mtdchar: retry large buffer allocations

2011-05-25T01:00:45+00:00

Replace direct call to kmalloc for a potentially large, contiguous
buffer allocation with one to mtd_kmalloc_up_to which helps ensure the
operation can succeed under low-memory, highly- fragmented situations
albeit somewhat more slowly.

sanitize vfsmount refcounting changes

2011-01-16T18:47:07+00:00

Instead of splitting refcount between (per-cpu) mnt_count
and (SMP-only) mnt_longrefs, make all references contribute
to mnt_count again and keep track of how many are longterm
ones.

Accounting rules for longterm count:
	* 1 for each fs_struct.root.mnt
	* 1 for each fs_struct.pwd.mnt
	* 1 for having non-NULL ->mnt_ns
	* decrement to 0 happens only under vfsmount lock exclusive

That allows nice common case for mntput() - since we can't drop the
final reference until after mnt_longterm has reached 0 due to the rules
above, mntput() can grab vfsmount lock shared and check mnt_longterm.
If it turns out to be non-zero (which is the common case), we know
that this is not the final mntput() and can just blindly decrement
percpu mnt_count.  Otherwise we grab vfsmount lock exclusive and
do usual decrement-and-check of percpu mnt_count.

For fs_struct.c we have mnt_make_longterm() and mnt_make_shortterm();
namespace.c uses the latter in places where we don't already hold
vfsmount lock exclusive and opencodes a few remaining spots where
we need to manipulate mnt_longterm.

Note that we mostly revert the code outside of fs/namespace.c back
to what we used to have; in particular, normal code doesn't need
to care about two kinds of references, etc.  And we get to keep
the optimization Nick's variant had bought us...
