Current git --> kaboom [bisect] seems IDE related.

Hello,
current git results in a freeze. I tracked it down to
| error = type->get_sb(type, flags, name, data, mnt);
in vfs_kern_mount(), fs/super.c (what is called from mount_root() during the boot process). I use XFS on my rootfs partition. After this, I started to bisect.
During the bisect process I stepped into two things. The commit

That was quick.
hdx=noflush worked well. The patch delayed the disk access as you can see in [1]. After the IPI message the hd led enlightened and was active until "lost interrupt" message. The following boot process was verry slow. Basically everything what required disk access took a while and the hd-led was almost continuous on. I aborted the boot process via magic keys after about 15 minutes.

From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <[email protected]>
Subject: [PATCH] ide-disk: fix flush requests
commit 813a0eb233ee67d7166241a8b389b6a76f2247f9
Author: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <[email protected]> Date: Fri Jan 25 22:17:10 2008 +0100
ide: switch idedisk_prepare_flush() to use REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE requests
...
broke flush requests.
Allocating IDE command structure on the stack for flush requests is not a very brilliant idea:
- idedisk_prepare_flush() only prepares the request and it doesn't wait for it to be completed
- there are can be multiple flush requests queued in the queue
Fix it by temporarily increasing size of BLK_MAX_CDB to accomodate for ide_task_t structure if IDE subsystem is going to be used.
[ Jens: This will be fixed properly before 2.6.25 but this bug is rather
critical and the proper solution requires some more work + testing. ]
Thanks to Sebastian Siewior for bisecting/reporting the problem.

I prepared the new patch, documented it and started looking into SCSI build breakage... and I no longer feel comfortable with the hack :(
It seems that fixing IDE properly will be easier than auditing the whole SCSI for all the weird assumptions on rq->cmd[] size (James?) so I'm back to the code, in the meantime here's the updated patch:
Doing something like this would have to be audited in SCSI ... we do assume sizeof(rq->cmd) == sizeof(scmd->cmnd) which will no longer be true. As long as sizeof(rq->cmd) is never used in SCSI code, it's probably safe.
Although raising MAX_CDB by a factor of three has memory concerns as well, which aren't trivial and make this a bit too much of a hack. It's also incredibly fragile given that either ide_task_t could increase in size or someone could reduce MAX_CDB both with fatal consequences.
Why not just use kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) instead? That will succeed 99% of the time and you can turn barriers off in a failure case. You'll have to free it in ide_end_drive_cmd(), but I think you've got (just) a spare tf_flag to mark a volatile task that needs kfree here.

It seems to be too late to turn barriers off as all of the above happens _inside_ prepare_flush_fn function. Nevertheless this is a much nicer workaround and it should be sufficent for the time being - thanks James!

Subject: [PATCH] ide-disk: fix flush requests (take 2)
commit 813a0eb233ee67d7166241a8b389b6a76f2247f9
Author: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <[email protected]> Date: Fri Jan 25 22:17:10 2008 +0100
ide: switch idedisk_prepare_flush() to use REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE requests
...
broke flush requests.
Allocating IDE command structure on the stack for flush requests is not a very brilliant idea:
- idedisk_prepare_flush() only prepares the request and it doesn't wait for it to be completed
- there are can be multiple flush requests queued in the queue
Fix the problem (per hints from James Bottomley) by:
- dynamically allocating ide_task_t instance using kmalloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC)
- adding new taskfile flag (IDE_TFLAG_DYN)
- calling kfree() in ide_end_drive_command() if IDE_TFLAG_DYN is set (while at it rename 'args' to 'task' and fix whitespace damage)
[ This will be fixed properly before 2.6.25 but this bug is rather
critical and the proper solution requires some more work + testing. ]
Thanks to Sebastian Siewior and Christoph Hellwig for reporitng the problem and testing patches (extra thanks to Sebastian for bisecting it to the guilty commmit).

Well, yes. However since the patch has been already merged upstream and it is only a temporary solution I don't think it is worth doing it now (OTOH if somebody sends me a patch I'll happily merge it).

I prepared the new patch, documented it and started looking into SCSI build breakage... and I no longer feel comfortable with the hack :(
It seems that fixing IDE properly will be easier than auditing the whole SCSI for all the weird assumptions on rq->cmd[] size (James?) so I'm back to the code, in the meantime here's the updated patch:
Yeah, this is quite nasty. I'll attach the patch below which just rejects a command in scsi_setup_blk_pc_cmnd if it's too large for the scsi_cmnd cmnd array. This is probably enough but I haven't audited all of the scsi code yet. But as James said this is too much of a memory vastage to put it into the tree.
Long-term the Panasas folks have looked into killing the scsi_cmnd.cmnd filed entirely and make the struct request.cmd field dynamically sized which would solve your problem, but probably won't be ready for 2.6.25.

<snip>
As far as I'm concerned it is very ready, and I have sent a last version for inclusion into 2.6.25.
- There is a very minor patch-ability problem between last patchset and scsi-misc I will resend the pachset as a reply to this mail.
- Since I never got any comments from Jens or James, this code was never accepted into -mm. So it was not widely tested. Though I have thrown every test I can on these patches. But that is still, a very limited testing.
If people have a bit of spare time, please review. For some of us it is very important
Thanks

cover varlen extended and vendor-specific cdbs
Submitted is a patchset for adding support for variable-length, extended, and vendor specific CDBs. It should now cover the entire range of the SCSI standard. (and/or any other use of command packets in block devices)
They are based on scsi-misc.
Difference from last time, is at struct request. I did a smallish hack to save the extra pointer space. The pointer now shares it's space with the request->cmd, as they are mutual exclusive. The flag to switch between them is when cmd_len == 0 and varlen_cdb_len != 0 I've added 2 accessors to hide the mess. I think this approach should be safe. I can easily go back to the separate pointer, but I figured a little hack is better then a bloat.
This is on top of the size shrink to struct scsi_cmnd gained in the first patch. We save upto 12 bytes on 32 bit ARCHs
So over all, this cleans things up, and add fixtures without any extra cost.
[1/3] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer
Here I let scsi_cmnd->cmnd point to the space allocated by request->cmd, instead of copying the data. The scsi_cmnd->cmd_len is guaranteed to contain the right length of the command. I have tried to go over every single place in the kernel that uses scsi_cmnd->cmnd and make sure it looks sane. Surprisingly to me, that was not at all bad. I hope I did not miss anything.
I've tested on an x86_64 machine booting from a sata disk and ran the iscsi regression tests as well as my bidi and varlen tests on top of the complete patchset and all tests passed.
[2/3] block layer varlen-cd
Here I added an option to use a user supplied buffer for an arbitrary large command. Buffer must be kept valid until execution of request ends. The pointer to the buffer shares it's space with the fixed length command, so the size of struct request does not change.
[3/3] scsi: varlen extended and vendor-specific cdbs
Adds support for variable length, extended, and vendor-specific cdbs at the scsi mid-layer.
Bart:
If you need this infrastructure see second patch for an easy to use inline accessors on struct request. If you then need to use them in a scsi LLD, thats easy same as before only cmd_len will be bigger then 16. If you need to use them in a block LLD. You need to use the accessors and an extra if() statement. See 3rd patch on how scsi_lib.c uses it.

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer
- struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own. This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd could function without a request attached. So clean that up.
- Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd.
- Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it and is reflected in the patch below is. MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB as per the SCSI standard and is not related to the implementation.
BLK_MAX_CDB. - The allocated space at the request level
(*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined
by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, like the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command. This is actually not exactly true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's. So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's

PATCH 2/3 block layer varlen-cdb
In reply to Boaz Harrosh- add varlen_cdb and varlen_cdb_len to hold a large user cdb if needed. They start as empty. Allocation of buffer must be done by user and held until request execution is done.
- Since there can be either a fix_length command up to 16 bytes or a variable_length, larger then 16 bytes, commands but never both, we hold the two types in a union to save space. The presence of varlen_cdb_len and cmd_len==0 signals a varlen_cdb mode.
- Please use added rq_{set,get}_varlen_cdb() to set every thing up in a way that will not confuse drivers that do not support varlen_cdb's.
- Note that this patch does not add any size to struct request since the unsigned cmd_len is split here to 2 ushorts, which is more then enough.

this one I'm a bit confused by, why can't we just set the length of the variable length command in cmd_len aswell, and if cmd_len > the length of the cmd array it's a variable length command?
Note that this is both to keep the logic simpler and not to grow struct request further. Especially for the rather rare case of a bidi command.

Because this will be dangerous for the Legacy block devices. Unlike scsi drivers block drivers do not have a .max_cmnd_len and upper layer will not check to make sure that the device supports the longer command. If such a command goes through, lets say bsg the drivers do blindly memcpy(,,rq->cmd_len) and will crash. Better safe then sorry, at no cost.

PS: the struct request does not grow. Because before cmd_len was unsigned but now both cmd_len and varlen_cdb_len are short so it is the same as before.

PATCH 3/3 scsi: varlen extended and vendor-specific cdbs
In reply to Boaz HarroshAdd support for variable-length, extended, and vendor specific CDBs to scsi-ml. It is now possible for initiators and ULD's to issue these types of commands. LLDs need not change much. All they need is to raise the .max_cmd_len to the longest command they support (see iscsi patches).
- clean-up some code paths that did not expect commands to be larger than 16, and change cmd_len members' type to short as char is not enough.
- Add support for varlen_cdb in scsi_execute.

This looks odd to me. Shouldn't we make sure cmd_len is always initialized in a single place for either varlen or fixed length commands and not have things like this?

I used to have a BUG_ON(!cmd_len) here at around the 2.6.20 kernels And it would trigger. I'm not sure exactly how. Through a retransmit or something.
Reinspecting all command submission paths, I agree with you that it should not happen anymore. I will look at it some more and run tests.
Perhaps if this code will sit in -mm tree for a while I can put the BUG_ON back and see if it triggers again. What do you recommend?

cover Is it time for varlen extended and vendor-specific cdbs
In reply to Boaz HarroshSubmitted is a patchset for adding support for variable-length, extended, and vendor specific CDBs. It should now cover the entire range of the SCSI standard. (and/or any other use of command packets in block devices)
They are based on scsi-misc/scsi-rc-fixes/linux-block. They are aimed for the 2.6.26 merge window. Andrew please also include them in -mm for testing.
Difference from last time, is at struct request. I did a smallish hack to save the extra pointer space. The pointer now shares it's space with the request->cmd, as they are mutual exclusive. The flag to switch between them is when cmd_len == 0 and varlen_cdb_len != 0 I've added 2 accessors to hide the mess. I think this approach should be safe with legacy drivers.
This is on top of the size shrink to struct scsi_cmnd gained in the first patch. We save upto 12 bytes on 32 bit ARCHs
So over all, this cleans things up, and add fixtures without *any extra cost*.
[1/3] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer
Here I let scsi_cmnd->cmnd point to the space allocated by request->cmd, instead of copying the data. The scsi_cmnd->cmd_len is guaranteed to contain the right length of the command. I have tried to go over every single place in the kernel that uses scsi_cmnd->cmnd and make sure it looks sane. Surprisingly to me, that was not at all bad. I hope I did not miss anything.
I've tested on an x86_64 machine booting from a sata disk and ran the iscsi regression tests as well as my bidi and varlen tests on top of the complete patchset and all tests passed.
[2/3] block layer varlen-cd
Here I added an option to use a user supplied buffer for an arbitrary large command. Buffer must be kept valid until execution of request ends. The pointer to the buffer shares it's space with the fixed length command, so the size of struct request does not change.
[3/3] scsi: varlen extended and vendor-specific cdbs
Adds support for variable length, extended, and vendor-specific cdbs at the scsi mid-layer.
