Pull SCSI target fixes from Nicholas Bellinger: "Mostly minor fixes this time around. The highlights include: - iscsi-target CHAP authentication fixes to enforce explicit key values (Tejas Vaykole + rahul.rane) - fix a long-standing OOPs in target-core when a alua configfs attribute is accessed after port symlink has been removed. (Sebastian Herbszt) - fix a v3.10.y iscsi-target regression causing the login reject status class/detail to be ignored (Christoph Vu-Brugier) - fix a v3.10.y iscsi-target regression to avoid rejecting an existing ITT during Data-Out when data-direction is wrong (Santosh Kulkarni + Arshad Hussain) - fix a iscsi-target related shutdown deadlock on UP kernels (Mikulas Patocka) - fix a v3.16-rc1 build issue with vhost-scsi + !CONFIG_NET (MST)" * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: iscsi-target: fix iscsit_del_np deadlock on unload iovec: move memcpy_from/toiovecend to lib/iovec.c iscsi-target: Avoid rejecting incorrect ITT for Data-Out tcm_loop: Fix memory leak in tcm_loop_submission_work error path iscsi-target: Explicily clear login response PDU in exception path target: Fix left-over se_lun->lun_sep pointer OOPs iscsi-target; Enforce 1024 byte maximum for CHAP_C key value iscsi-target: Convert chap_server_compute_md5 to use kstrtoul
2014-06-27iovec: move memcpy_from/toiovecend to lib/iovec.cMichael S. Tsirkin
ERROR: "memcpy_fromiovecend" [drivers/vhost/vhost_scsi.ko] undefined! commit 9f977ef7b671f6169eca78bf40f230fe84b7c7e5 vhost-scsi: Include prot_bytes into expected data transfer length in target-pending makes drivers/vhost/scsi.c call memcpy_fromiovecend(). This function is not available when CONFIG_NET is not enabled. socket.h already includes uio.h, so no callers need updating.

2014-06-26Fix 32-bit regression in block device read(2)Al Viro
blkdev_read_iter() wants to cap the iov_iter by the amount of data remaining to the end of device. That's what iov_iter_truncate() is for (trim iter->count if it's above the given limit). So far, so good, but the argument of iov_iter_truncate() is size_t, so on 32bit boxen (in case of a large device) we end up with that upper limit truncated down to 32 bits *before* comparing it with iter->count. Easily fixed by making iov_iter_truncate() take 64bit argument - it does the right thing after such change (we only reach the assignment in there when the current value of iter->count is greater than the limit, i.e. for anything that would get truncated we don't reach the assignment at all) and that argument is not the new value of iter->count - it's an upper limit for such. The overhead of passing u64 is not an issue - the thing is inlined, so callers passing size_t won't pay any penalty.

2014-05-06bio_vec-backed iov_iterAl Viro
New variant of iov_iter - ITER_BVEC in iter->type, backed with bio_vec array instead of iovec one. Primitives taught to deal with such beasts, __swap_write() switched to using that kind of iov_iter. Note that bio_vec is just a <page, offset, length> triple - there's nothing block-specific about it. I've left the definition where it was, but took it from under ifdef CONFIG_BLOCK. Next target: ->splice_write()... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06lustre: get rid of messing with iovecsAl Viro
* switch to ->read_iter/->write_iter * keep a pointer to iov_iter instead of iov/nr_segs * do not modify iovecs; use iov_iter_truncate()/iov_iter_advance() and a new primitive - iov_iter_reexpand() (expand previously truncated iterator) istead. * (racy) check for lustre VMAs intersecting with iovecs kept for now as for_each_iov() loop.

2014-05-06new helper: copy_page_from_iter()Al Viro
parallel to copy_page_to_iter(). pipe_write() switched to it (and became ->write_iter()). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06iov_iter_truncate()Al Viro
Now It Can Be Done(tm) - we don't need to do iov_shorten() in generic_file_direct_write() anymore, now that all ->direct_IO() instances are converted to proper iov_iter methods and honour iter->count and iter->iov_offset properly. Get rid of count/ocount arguments of generic_file_direct_write(), while we are at it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06new helper: iov_iter_get_pages_alloc()Al Viro
same as iov_iter_get_pages(), except that pages array is allocated (kmalloc if possible, vmalloc if that fails) and left for caller to free. Lustre and NFS ->direct_IO() switched to it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06new helper: iov_iter_npages()Al Viro
counts the pages covered by iov_iter, up to given limit. do_block_direct_io() and fuse_iter_npages() switched to it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06new helper: iov_iter_get_pages()Al Viro
iov_iter_get_pages(iter, pages, maxsize, &start) grabs references pinning the pages of up to maxsize of (contiguous) data from iter. Returns the amount of memory grabbed or -error. In case of success, the requested area begins at offset start in pages[0] and runs through pages[1], etc. Less than requested amount might be returned - either because the contiguous area in the beginning of iterator is smaller than requested, or because the kernel failed to pin that many pages. direct-io.c switched to using iov_iter_get_pages() Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06start adding the tag to iov_iterAl Viro
For now, just use the same thing we pass to ->direct_IO() - it's all iovec-based at the moment. Pass it explicitly to iov_iter_init() and account for kvec vs. iovec in there, by the same kludge NFS ->direct_IO() uses. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06new primitive: iov_iter_alignment()Al Viro
returns the value aligned as badly as the worst remaining segment in iov_iter is. Use instead of open-coded equivalents. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-05-06kill iov_iter_copy_from_user()Al Viro
all callers can use copy_page_from_iter() and it actually simplifies them. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-04-01introduce copy_page_to_iter, kill loop over iovec in generic_file_aio_read()Al Viro
generic_file_aio_read() was looping over the target iovec, with loop over (source) pages nested inside that. Just set an iov_iter up and pass *that* to do_generic_file_aio_read(). With copy_page_to_iter() doing all work of mapping and copying a page to iovec and advancing iov_iter. Switch shmem_file_aio_read() to the same and kill file_read_actor(), while we are at it.

2013-05-20Hoist memcpy_fromiovec/memcpy_toiovec into lib/Rusty Russell
ERROR: "memcpy_fromiovec" [drivers/vhost/vhost_scsi.ko] undefined! That function is only present with CONFIG_NET. Turns out that crypto/algif_skcipher.c also uses that outside net, but it actually needs sockets anyway. In addition, commit 6d4f0139d642c45411a47879325891ce2a7c164a added CONFIG_NET dependency to CONFIG_VMCI for memcpy_toiovec, so hoist that function and revert that commit too. socket.h already includes uio.h, so no callers need updating; trying only broke things fo x86_64 randconfig (thanks Fengguang!).

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
