commit d63b77f4c552cc3a20506871046ab0fcbc332609 upstream.

If we encounter an invalid (e.g., zeroed) mapping, return an error
and avoid a divide by zero.

commit 9bd952615a42d7e2ce3fa2c632e808e804637a1a upstream.

The ceph_on_in_msg_alloc() method drops con-&gt;mutex while it allocates a
message.  If that races with a timeout that resends a zillion messages and
resets the connection, and the -&gt;alloc_msg() method returns a NULL message,
it will call ceph_msg_put(NULL) and BUG.

Fix by only calling put if msg is non-NULL.

Fixes http://tracker.newdream.net/issues/3142

<title>rbd: reset BACKOFF if unable to re-queue</title>

<id>a407c28651969f9e34fd51ea0415886b70e5c991</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 588377d6199034c36d335e7df5818b731fea072c upstream.

If ceph_fault() is unable to queue work after a delay, it sets the
BACKOFF connection flag so con_work() will attempt to do so.

In con_work(), when BACKOFF is set, if queue_delayed_work() doesn't
result in newly-queued work, it simply ignores this condition and
proceeds as if no backoff delay were desired.  There are two
problems with this--one of which is a bug.

The first problem is simply that the intended behavior is to back
off, and if we aren't able queue the work item to run after a delay
we're not doing that.

The only reason queue_delayed_work() won't queue work is if the
provided work item is already queued.  In the messenger, this
means that con_work() is already scheduled to be run again.  So
if we simply set the BACKOFF flag again when this occurs, we know
the next con_work() call will again attempt to hold off activity
on the connection until after the delay.

The second problem--the bug--is a leak of a reference count.  If
queue_delayed_work() returns 0 in con_work(), con-&gt;ops-&gt;put() drops
the connection reference held on entry to con_work().  However,
processing is (was) allowed to continue, and at the end of the
function a second con-&gt;ops-&gt;put() is called.

This patch fixes both problems.

<title>libceph: only kunmap kmapped pages</title>

<content type='text'>
In write_partial_msg_pages(), pages need to be kmapped in order to
perform a CRC-32c calculation on them.  As an artifact of the way
this code used to be structured, the kunmap() call was separated
from the kmap() call and both were done conditionally.  But the
conditions under which the kmap() and kunmap() calls were made
differed, so there was a chance a kunmap() call would be done on a
page that had not been mapped.

The symptom of this was tripping a BUG() in kunmap_high() when
pkmap_count[nr] became 0.

<title>libceph: avoid truncation due to racing banners</title>

<id>6d4221b53707486dfad3f5bfe568d2ce7f4c9863</id>
<content type='text'>
Because the Ceph client messenger uses a non-blocking connect, it is
possible for the sending of the client banner to race with the
arrival of the banner sent by the peer.

When ceph_sock_state_change() notices the connect has completed, it
schedules work to process the socket via con_work().  During this
time the peer is writing its banner, and arrival of the peer banner
races with con_work().

If con_work() calls try_read() before the peer banner arrives, there
is nothing for it to do, after which con_work() calls try_write() to
send the client's banner.  In this case Ceph's protocol negotiation
can complete succesfully.

The server-side messenger immediately sends its banner and addresses
after accepting a connect request, *before* actually attempting to
read or verify the banner from the client.  As a result, it is
possible for the banner from the server to arrive before con_work()
calls try_read().  If that happens, try_read() will read the banner
and prepare protocol negotiation info via prepare_write_connect().
prepare_write_connect() calls con_out_kvec_reset(), which discards
the as-yet-unsent client banner.  Next, con_work() calls
try_write(), which sends the protocol negotiation info rather than
the banner that the peer is expecting.

The result is that the peer sees an invalid banner, and the client
reports "negotiation failed".

Fix this by moving con_out_kvec_reset() out of
prepare_write_connect() to its callers at all locations except the
one where the banner might still need to be sent.

The debugfs directory includes the cluster fsid and our unique global_id.
We need to delay the initialization of the debug entry until we have
learned both the fsid and our global_id from the monitor or else the
second client can't create its debugfs entry and will fail (and multiple
client instances aren't properly reflected in debugfs).

 "Lots of stuff this time around:

   - lots of cleanup and refactoring in the libceph messenger code, and
     many hard to hit races and bugs closed as a result.
   - lots of cleanup and refactoring in the rbd code from Alex Elder,
     mostly in preparation for the layering functionality that will be
     coming in 3.7.
   - some misc rbd cleanups from Josh Durgin that are finally going
     upstream
   - support for CRUSH tunables (used by newer clusters to improve the
     data placement)
   - some cleanup in our use of d_parent that Al brought up a while back
   - a random collection of fixes across the tree

  There is another patch coming that fixes up our -&gt;atomic_open()
  behavior, but I'm going to hammer on it a bit more before sending it."

We drop the lock when calling the -&gt;alloc_msg() con op, which means
we need to (a) not clobber con-&gt;in_msg without the mutex held, and (b)
we need to verify that we are still in the OPEN state when we retake
it to avoid causing any mayhem.  If the state does change, -EAGAIN
will get us back to con_work() and loop.

This function's calling convention is very limiting.  In particular,
we can't return any error other than ENOMEM (and only implicitly),
which is a problem (see next patch).

Instead, return an normal 0 or error code, and make the skip a pointer
output parameter.  Drop the useless in_hdr argument (we have the con
pointer).

This function's calling convention is very limiting.  In particular,
we can't return any error other than ENOMEM (and only implicitly),
which is a problem (see next patch).

Instead, return an normal 0 or error code, and make the skip a pointer
output parameter.  Drop the useless in_hdr argument (we have the con
pointer).
