2202134e48 s390/dasd: check for device error pointer within state change interrupts
Check if the device pointer is valid. Just a sanity check since we already
are in the int handler of the device.

3b1bea0127 s390/dasd: Improve parameter list parsing
The function dasd_busid() still uses simple_strtoul() to convert a
string to an integer value. This function is obsolete for quite some
time already and should be replaced.

The whole parameter parsing semantic still relies somewhat on the fact,
that simple_strtoul() parses a string containing literals without
complains and just returns the parsed integer value plus the residual
string. kstrtoint(), however, would return -EINVAL in such a case.
Since we want to get rid of simple_strtoul() and now have a nice dasd[]
containing only single elements, we can clean up and simplify a few
things.

Replace simple_strtoul() with kstrtouint(), improve and simplify the
overall parameter parsing by the following:
- instead of residual strings return proper error codes
- remove dasd_parse_next_element() and decide directly what sort of
  element is being parsed
- if we parse a device or a range of devices, split that element into
  separate bits with a new function
- remove warning about invalid ending as it doesn't apply anymore
- annotate all parsing functions and data that can be freed after
  initialisation with __init and __initdata respectively
- clean up bits and pieces while at it

09762dcb62 s390/dasd: Always store parameter elements in an array
When the DASD driver is built into the kernel, the entire comma
separated parameter list is stored as one single element in the dasd[]
array, opposed to the module build where each element is stored
separately in dasd[].
There is no point in doing so. Therefore, store each part of the list as
single elements in dasd[] as well when built into the kernel.
Also, create a define for the maximum of 256 parameters.

a521b048bc s390/dasd: channel path aware error recovery
With this feature, the DASD device driver more robustly handles DASDs
that are attached via multiple channel paths and are subject to
constant Interface-Control-Checks (IFCCs) and Channel-Control-Checks
(CCCs) or loss of High-Performance-FICON (HPF) functionality on one or
more of these paths.

If a channel path does not work correctly, it is removed from normal
operation as long as other channel paths are available. All extended
error recovery states can be queried and reset via user space
interfaces.

9f9d53e5bd s390/dasd: Fix locking issue when changing RO attribute
The function dasd_ro_store() calls set_disk_ro() to set the device in
question read-only. Since set_disk_ro() might sleep, we can't call it
while holding a lock. However, we also can't simply check if the device,
block, and gdp references are valid before we call set_disk_ro() because
an offline processing might have been started in the meanwhile which
will destroy those references.

In order to reliably call set_disk_ro() we have to ensure several
things:

- Still check validity of the mentioned references but additionally
  check if offline processing is running and bail out accordingly. Also,
  do this while holding the device lock.
- To ensure that the block device is still safe after the lock, increase
  the open_count while still holding the device lock.

9de67725c8 s390/dasd: Fix locking issue when changing EER attribute
The reference to a device in question may get lost when the extended
error reporting (EER) attribute is being enabled/disabled while the
device is set offline at the same time. This is due to missing
refcounting and incorrect locking. Fix this by the following:

- In dasd_eer_store() get the device directly and handle the refcount
  accordingly.
- Move the lock in dasd_eer_enable() up so we can ensure safe
  processing.
- Check if the device is being set offline and return with -EBUSY if so.
- While at it, change the return code from -EPERM to -EMEDIUMTYPE as
  suggested by a FIXME, since that is what we're actually checking.

0f57c97f24 s390/dasd: Eliminate race condition in dasd_generic_set_offline()
Before we set a device offline, the open_count for the block device is
checked and certain flags are checked and set as well.
However, this is all done without holding any lock. Potentially, if the
open_count was checked but the DASD_FLAG_OFFLINE wasn't set yet, a
different process might want to increase the open_count depending on
whether DASD_FLAG_OFFLINE is set or not in the meanwhile.

This is quite racy and can lead to the loss of the device for that
process and subsequently lead to a panic.

Fix this by checking the open_count and setting the offline flags while
holding the ccwdev lock.

1081f3a70b s390/dasd: Make use of dasd_set_feature() more often
When setting certain attributes, we actually set the according feature
flag. Do this by using dasd_set_feature() at a few occurrences and
remove duplicate code.

In dasd_set_feature() dasd_find_busid() is used to retrieve the devmap
for the device in question. Combined with the change above, this would
require the device to be set online at least once so that a devmap is
being created. Change that by using dasd_devmap_from_cdev() instead,
which uses dasd_find_busid() first and will create a devmap accordingly
if there is none yet.

Currently the block queue value max_segments is set to -1L, which

This results in 65535 (64k) max_segments.

Even though the resulting value is correct, setting it implicitly using

c020d722b1 s390/dasd: fix panic during offline processing
A DASD device consists of the device itself and a discipline with a
corresponding private structure. These fields are set up during online
processing right after the device is created and before it is processed by
the state machine and made available for I/O.
During offline processing the discipline pointer and the private data gets
freed within the state machine and without protection of the existing
reference count. This might lead to a kernel panic because a function might
have taken a device reference and accesses the discipline pointer and/or
private data of the device while this is already freed.

Fix by freeing the discipline pointer and the private data after ensuring
that there is no reference to the device left.

processing. No further handling of the requests is necessary since this is
internal I/O and the device is thrown away afterwards.

163d4baaeb block: add QUEUE_FLAG_DAX for devices to advertise their DAX support
Currently, presence of direct_access() in block_device_operations
indicates support of DAX on its block device.  Because
block_device_operations is instantiated with 'const', this DAX
capablity may not be enabled conditinally.

In preparation for supporting DAX to device-mapper devices, add
QUEUE_FLAG_DAX to request_queue flags to advertise their DAX
support.  This will allow to set the DAX capability based on how
mapped device is composed.

4027789192 s390/time: LPAR offset handling
It is possible to specify a user offset for the TOD clock, e.g. +2 hours.
The TOD clock will carry this offset even if the clock is synchronized
with STP. This makes the time stamps acquired with get_sync_clock()
useless as another LPAR migth use a different TOD offset.

Use the PTFF instrution to get the TOD epoch difference and subtract
it from the TOD clock value to get a physical timestamp. As the epoch
difference contains the sync check delta as well the LPAR offset value
to the physical clock needs to be refreshed after each clock
synchronization.

1378a68344 s390/dcssblk: fix possible deadlock in remove vs. per-device attributes
dcssblk_remove_store() holds the dcssblk_devices_sem semaphore while
calling device_unregister(), which in turn tries to acquire the kernfs
kn->dev_map rwsem for the device sysfs subtree. The same rwsem is also
acquired when using the per-device sysfs attributes in the device sub-tree,
and the attribute handlers then also acquire the dcssblk_devices_sem.

This can lead to a deadlock when removing a DCSS while concurrently
reading from / writing to one of its sysfs attributes. The following
lockdep warning hinted towards the issue (CPU0 = dcssblk_remove_store,
CPU1 = dcssblk_shared_store):

[   76.496047]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

[   76.496054]        CPU0                    CPU1

59a9ed5f87 s390/dasd: reorder lcu and device lock
Reorder lcu and device lock to get rid of the error-prone trylock
mechanism.

The locking order is lcu lock -> device lock.
This protects against changes to the lcu device lists and enables us
to iterate over the devices, take the cdev lock and make changes to
the device structures.

The complicated part is the summary unit check handler that gets an
interrupt on one device of the lcu that leads to structural changes of
the whole lcu itself. This work needs to be done even if devices on
the lcu disappear. So a device independent worker is used.
The old approach tried to update some lcu structures and set up the
lcu worker in the interrupt context with the device lock held.
But this forced the lock order "cdev lock -> lcu lock" that made it
hard to have the lcu lock held and iterate over all devices and change
them.

The new approach is to schedule a device specific worker that gets
out of the interrupt context and rid of the device lock for summary
unit checks. This worker is able to take the lcu lock and schedule the
lcu worker that updates all devices. The time between interrupt and
worker execution is no problem because the devices in the lcu reject
all I/O in this time with an appropriate error. The dasd driver can
deal with this situation and re-drive the I/O later on.

8542885bf5 s390/dasd: Simplify code in format logic
Currently, dasd_format is calling the format logic of a DASD discipline
with PAV enabled. If that fails with an error code of -EAGAIN the value
of retries is decremented and the discipline function is called with PAV
turned off.

The loop is supposed to try this up to 255 times until success. However,
-EAGAIN can only occur once here and therefore the loop will never reach
the 255 retries.

So, replace the unnecessarily complicated loop logic and simply try again
without PAV enabled in case of an -EAGAIN error.

git commit 1ec2772e0c ("s390/diag: add a statistic for diagnose

In case of the dasd diag driver the function call was added between a
register asm statement which initialized register r2 and the inline
assembly itself.  The function call clobbers the contents of register
r2 and therefore the diag 0x250 call behaves in a more or less random
way.

Fix this by extracting the function call into a separate function like
we do everywhere else.

9bfefde718 s390/dasd: fix incorrect locking order for LCU device add/remove
The correct lock order for LCU lock and cdev lock is to take the cdev
lock first and afterwards the LCU lock. This is caused by the fact
that LCU functions are called in an interrupt context with the cdev
lock implicitly hold by CIO.

To assure the right locking order but also be able to iterate over
devices in a LCU introduce a trylock block that can be called with
the device lock for one device hold and then takes the LCU lock and
try to lock all devices accounted to this LCU. Afterwards all devices
and the LCU itself are locked.

12d319b920 s390/dasd: fix performance drop
Commit ca369d51b ("sd: Fix device-imposed transfer length limits")
introduced a new queue limit max_dev_sectors which limits the maximum
sectors for requests. The default value leads to small dasd requests
and therefor to a performance drop.
Set the max_dev_sectors value to the same value as the max_hw_sectors
to use the maximum available request size for DASD devices.

020bf042e5 s390/dasd: prevent incorrect length error under z/VM after PAV changes
The channel checks the specified length and the provided amount of

not match. Under z/VM with simulation activated the length may get
changed. Having the suppress length indication bit set is stated as
good CCW coding practice and avoids errors under z/VM.

34c0fd540e mm, dax, pmem: introduce pfn_t
For the purpose of communicating the optional presence of a 'struct
page' for the pfn returned from ->direct_access(), introduce a type that
encapsulates a page-frame-number plus flags.  These flags contain the
historical "page_link" encoding for a scatterlist entry, but can also
denote "device memory".  Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are
not part of the kernel's linear mapping by default, but are accessed via
the same memory controller as ram.

The motivation for this new type is large capacity persistent memory
that needs struct page entries in the 'memmap' to support 3rd party DMA
(i.e.  O_DIRECT I/O with a persistent memory source/target).  However,
we also need it in support of maintaining a list of mapped inodes which
need to be unmapped at driver teardown or freeze_bdev() time.

Enabling failfast should let request fail immediately if either an

For disconnected devices new requests are not fetches from the block

ccc0e7dc70 s390/dasd: fix disconnected device with valid path mask
Path verification is either done via dasd_eckd_read_conf() which is
triggered during online processing and resume or via
do_path_verification_work() which is triggered after path events.
The dasd_eckd_read_conf() version added paths unconditionally and did
not check if the path mask was empty. This led to devices having the
disconnected stop flag set but a valid path mask. So they where not
working although they had paths validated successfully. After a resume
this state could even not be solved with additional paths added.

Fix by checking for an empty path mask in dasd_eckd_read_conf() and
clearing the device stop bits for a newly added channel path.

assignment. The failed device may get restored after additional paths
get available later on.
If the restore fails after the device was added to the lcu alias
handling it needs to be removed from the alias handling before exiting

6933c35a30 s390/dasd: fix list_del corruption after lcu changes
A summary unit check occurs when the lcu updates the PAV configuration
e.g. base PAV assignment or PAV mode at all. This requires the reset
of the drivers internal pavgroups. Therefore the alias devices are
flushed and moved via a temporary list to the active_devices list
where they are not associated with a pavgroup. In conjunction with
updates to the base device the pavgroup may be removed since both
base_list and alias_list are empty. Unfortunately during alias flush
and move to the active_device list from alias_list the pavgroup
pointer is not deleted in the device private structure. This leads to
a list del_corruption if another lcu_update tries to move the device
in the non existent pavgroup.

Fix by removing the pavgroup pointer after the alias device was moved
to the active_devices list.

and the fact that this change is mostly to disable the additional

and do not disable the this device as entropy source - unlike other

     We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX

54efd50bfd block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios
The way the block layer is currently written, it goes to great lengths
to avoid having to split bios; upper layer code (such as bio_add_page())
checks what the underlying device can handle and tries to always create
bios that don't need to be split.

But this approach becomes unwieldy and eventually breaks down with
stacked devices and devices with dynamic limits, and it adds a lot of
complexity. If the block layer could split bios as needed, we could
eliminate a lot of complexity elsewhere - particularly in stacked
drivers. Code that creates bios can then create whatever size bios are
convenient, and more importantly stacked drivers don't have to deal with
both their own bio size limitations and the limitations of the
(potentially multiple) devices underneath them.  In the future this will
let us delete merge_bvec_fn and a bunch of other code.

We do this by adding calls to blk_queue_split() to the various
make_request functions that need it - a few can already handle arbitrary
size bios. Note that we add the call _after_ any call to
blk_queue_bounce(); this means that blk_queue_split() and
blk_recalc_rq_segments() don't need to be concerned with bouncing
affecting segment merging.

Some make_request_fn() callbacks were simple enough to audit and verify
they don't need blk_queue_split() calls. The skipped ones are:

 * nfhd_make_request (arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.c)
 * axon_ram_make_request (arch/powerpc/sysdev/axonram.c)
 * simdisk_make_request (arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c)
 * brd_make_request (ramdisk - drivers/block/brd.c)
 * mtip_submit_request (drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c)
 * loop_make_request
 * null_queue_bio
 * bcache's make_request fns

Some others are almost certainly safe to remove now, but will be left
for future patches.

4246a0b63b block: add a bi_error field to struct bio
Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:

 (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
 (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback

The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario.  Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.

So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

f81a49d13b s390/dasd: fix kernel panic when alias is set offline
The dasd device driver selects which (alias or base) device is used
for a given requests when the request is build. If the chosen alias
device is set offline before the request gets queued to the device
queue the starting function may use device structures that are
already freed. This might lead to a hanging offline process or a
kernel panic.

Add a check to the starting function that returns the request to the
upper layer if the device is already in offline processing.

In addition to that prevent that an alias device that's already in
offline processing gets chosen as start device.

while the corresponding kernel module dasd_diag_mod has not been loaded
fails with an error message. To fix this, users need to manually load

shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e58 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.

Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.

362ce84f43 s390/dasd: fix infinite loop during format
Error recovery requests may not be cleaned up correctly so that other
needed erp requests can not be build because of insufficient memory.
This would lead to an infinite loop trying to build erp requests.

b277da0a8a block: disable entropy contributions for nonrot devices
Clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM in all block drivers that set
QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT.

Historically, all block devices have automatically made entropy
contributions.  But as previously stated in commit e2e1a148 ("block: add
sysfs knob for turning off disk entropy contributions"):
    - On SSD disks, the completion times aren't as random as they
      are for rotational drives. So it's questionable whether they
      should contribute to the random pool in the first place.
    - Calling add_disk_randomness() has a lot of overhead.

There are more reliable sources for randomness than non-rotational block
devices.  From a security perspective it is better to err on the side of
caution than to allow entropy contributions from unreliable "random"
sources.
