Ming Lei 3a83f46775 block: bio: pass bvec table to bio_init()
Some drivers often use external bvec table, so introduce
this helper for this case. It is always safe to access the
bio->bi_io_vec in this way for this case.

After converting to this usage, it will becomes a bit easier
to evaluate the remaining direct access to bio->bi_io_vec,
so it can help to prepare for the following multipage bvec
support.

Jiri Kosina ff06db1efb floppy: fix open(O_ACCMODE) for ioctl-only open
Commit 09954bad4 ("floppy: refactor open() flags handling"), as a
side-effect, causes open(/dev/fdX, O_ACCMODE) to fail. It turns out that
this is being used setfdprm userspace for ioctl-only open().

Reintroduce back the original behavior wrt !(FMODE_READ|FMODE_WRITE)
modes, while still keeping the original O_NDELAY bug fixed.

This patch converts the simple bi_rw use cases in the block,

Jiri Kosina 09954bad44 floppy: refactor open() flags handling
In case /dev/fdX is open with O_NDELAY / O_NONBLOCK, floppy_open() immediately
succeeds, without performing any further media / controller preparations.
That's "correct" wrt. the NODELAY flag, but is hardly correct wrt. the rest
of the floppy driver, that is not really O_NONBLOCK ready, at all. Therefore
it's not too surprising, that subsequent attempts to work with the
filedescriptor produce bad results. Namely, syzkaller tool has been able
to livelock mmap() on the returned fd to keep waiting on the page unlock
bit forever.

Quite frankly, I have trouble defining what non-blocking behavior would be for
floppies. Is waiting ages for the driver to actually succeed reading a sector
blocking operation? Is waiting for drive motor to start blocking operation? How
about in case of virtualized floppies?

One option would be returning EWOULDBLOCK in case O_NDLEAY / O_NONBLOCK is
being passed to open(). That has a theoretical potential of breaking some
arcane and archaic userspace though.

Let's take a more conservative aproach, and accept the O_NDLEAY flag, and let
the driver behave as usual.

While at it, clean up a bit handling of !(mode & (FMODE_READ|FMODE_WRITE))
case and return EINVAL instead of succeeding as well.

Jiri Kosina a0c80efe59 floppy: fix lock_fdc() signal handling
floppy_revalidate() doesn't perform any error handling on lock_fdc()
result. lock_fdc() might actually be interrupted by a signal (it waits for
fdc becoming non-busy interruptibly). In such case, floppy_revalidate()
proceeds as if it had claimed the lock, but it fact it doesn't.

In case of multiple threads trying to open("/dev/fdX"), this leads to
serious corruptions all over the place, because all of a sudden there is
no critical section protection (that'd otherwise be guaranteed by locked
fd) whatsoever.

While at this, fix the fact that the 'interruptible' parameter to
lock_fdc() doesn't make any sense whatsoever, because we always wait
interruptibly anyway.

Most of the lock_fdc() callsites do properly handle error (and propagate
EINTR), but floppy_revalidate() and floppy_check_events() don't. Fix this.

Christoph Hellwig 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.

Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe:
 "It's a big(ish) round this time, lots of development effort has gone
  into blk-mq in the last 3 months.  Generally we're heading to where
  3.16 will be a feature complete and performant blk-mq.  scsi-mq is
  progressing nicely and will hopefully be in 3.17.  A nvme port is in
  progress, and the Micron pci-e flash driver, mtip32xx, is converted
  and will be sent in with the driver pull request for 3.16.

  This pull request contains:

   - Lots of prep and support patches for scsi-mq have been integrated.
     All from Christoph.

   - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph.

   - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for
     blk-mq from Ming Lei.

   - A flew of blk-mq updates from me:

     * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU
       to queue mapping.  This enables optimizations in the driver.

     * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never
       really worked well for blk-mq.  percpu_ida relies on the fact
       that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it
       fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to
       exhausting) the tag space.

     * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq

     * Various fixes for IO timeouts.

     * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations.

   - Remove 'buffer' from struct request.  This is ancient code, from
     when requests were always virtually mapped.  Kill it, to reclaim
     some space in struct request.  From me.

   - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug.  Since we store these on the stack
     and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just
     get rid of it.  From me.

   - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two
     atomic reads.  Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as
     the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing
     IO on blk-mq.  From me.

   - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/.  This
     includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c.  From me,
     from a discussion on lkml.

  That should describe the meat of the pull request.  Also has various

  Fengguang Wu, Fabian Frederick, Randy Dunlap, Robert Elliott, and Sam
  Bradshaw"

Jiri Kosina 6314a108ec floppy: do not corrupt bio.bi_flags when reading block 0
Commit 41a55b4de3 ("floppy: silence warning during disk test") caused
bio.bi_flags being overwritten, and its initialization to BIO_UPTODATE
in bio_init() to be lost.

This was unnoticed until 7b7b68bba5 ("floppy: bail out in open() if
drive is not responding to block0 read"), because the error value wasn't
checked for in the bio completion callback.

Now we are actually looking at the error, and the loss of BIO_UPTODATE
causes EIO to be wrongly passed to the callback, which confuses the
FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT logic.

Fix this by not destroying previous value of bi_flags when setting
BIO_QUIET.

Tejun Heo 75ddb38f09 floppy: don't use PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK
PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out.  They have few users
and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue
considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work

floppy has been multiplexing floppy_work and fd_timer with multiple
work functions.  Introduce floppy_work_workfn() and fd_timer_workfn()
which invoke floppy_work_fn and fd_timer_fn respectively and always
use the two functions as the work functions and update the users to
set floppy_work_fn and fd_timer_fn instead of overriding work
functions using PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK().

It would probably be best to route this with other related updates
through the workqueue tree.

Jiri Kosina 7b7b68bba5 floppy: bail out in open() if drive is not responding to block0 read
In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing
to let open() succeed.

Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in
case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0.

As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is
not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to
those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable,
read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway.

Linus Torvalds dab058fd5f floppy: cancel any pending fd_timeouts before adding a new one
In commit 070ad7e793 ("floppy: convert to delayed work and
single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed
work.  However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process,
and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then
re-queued the timeout.

This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout
rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the
floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it
should.

Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy
driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed.

Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the
issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead.
The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s
one.

Jiri Kosina bfa10b8c98 floppy: remove floppy-specific O_EXCL handling
Block layer now handles O_EXCL in a generic way for block devices.

The semantics is however different for floppy and all other block devices,
as floppy driver contains its own O_EXCL handling.

The semantics for all-but-floppy bdevs is "there can be at most one O_EXCL
open of this file", while for floppy bdev the semantics is "if someone has
the bdev open with O_EXCL, noone else can open it".

There is actual userspace-observable change in behavior because of this
since commit e525fd89d3 ("block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive
access") -- on kernels containing this commit, mount of /dev/fd0 causes
the fd0 block device be claimed with _EXCL, preventing subsequent
open(/dev/fd0).

Bring things back into shape, i.e.  make it possible, analogically to
other block devices, to mount the floppy and open() it afterwards --
remove the floppy-specific handling and let the generic bdev code O_EXCL
handling take over.

Jiri Kosina 070ad7e793 floppy: convert to delayed work and single-thread wq
There are several races in floppy driver between bottom half
(scheduled_work) and timers (fd_timeout, fd_timer). Due to slowness
of the actual floppy devices, those races are never (at least to my
knowledge) triggered on a bare floppy metal. However on virtualized
(emulated) floppy drives, which are of course magnitudes faster
than the real ones, these races trigger reliably. They usually exhibit
themselves as NULL pointer dereferences during DMA setup, such as

	BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000a

but other instances can be easily seen as well. This can be observed at least under
VMWare, VirtualBox and KVM.

This patch converts all the timers and bottom halfs to be processed in a single
workqueue. This aproach has been already discussed back in 2010 if I remember
correctly, and Acked by Linus [1], but it then never made it to the tree.

This all is based on original idea and code of Stephen Hemminger.  I have
ported original Stepen's code to the current state of the floppy driver, and
performed quite some testing (on real hardware), which didn't reveal any issues
(this includes not only writing and reading data, but also formatting
(unfortunately I didn't find any Double-Density disks any more)). Ability to
handle errors properly (supplying known bad floppies) has also been verified.

Len Brown f6365201d8 x86: Remove the ancient and deprecated disable_hlt() and enable_hlt() facility
The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the
32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the
HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially
it turned off the use of HLT.

This workaround was commented in the code as:

 "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations"

 "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA
  wreckage. It should be safe to remove."

H. Peter Anvin additionally adds:

 "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of
  flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to
  run DOS.  Since DOS did no power management of any kind,
  including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed
  to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT
  caused some of these systems to fail.

  They were by far in the minority even back then."

Alan Cox further says:

 "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT
  occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during
  DMA tended to go astray.

  Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520
  fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of
  use."

So, let's finally drop this.

[ If anyone cares then alternative instruction patching could be
  used to replace HLT with a one-byte NOP instruction. Much simpler. ]

Vivek Goyal 4609dff6b5 floppy: Fix a crash during rmmod
floppy driver does not call add_disk() on all the drives hence we don't take
gendisk reference on request queue for these drives. Don't call put_disk()
with disk->queue set, otherwise we try to put the reference we never took.

Vivek Goyal 3f9a5aabd0 floppy: Cleanup disk->queue before caling put_disk() if add_disk() was never called
add_disk() takes gendisk reference on request queue. If driver failed during
initialization and never called add_disk() then that extra reference is not
taken. That reference is put in put_disk(). floppy driver allocates the
disk, allocates queue, sets disk->queue and then relizes that floppy
controller is not present. It tries to tear down everything and tries to
put a reference down in put_disk() which was never taken.

In such error cases cleanup disk->queue before calling put_disk() so that
we never try to put down a reference which was never taken in first place.
