configfs: allow dynamic group creation

2015-11-21T00:17:32+00:00

This patchset introduces IIO software triggers, offers a way of configuring them via configfs and adds the IIO hrtimer based interrupt source to be used with software triggers. The architecture is now split in 3 parts, to remove all IIO trigger specific parts from IIO configfs core: (1) IIO configfs - creates the root of the IIO configfs subsys. (2) IIO software triggers - software trigger implementation, dynamically creating /config/iio/triggers group. (3) IIO hrtimer trigger - is the first interrupt source for software triggers (with syfs to follow). Each trigger type can implement its own set of attributes. Lockdep seems to be happy with the locking in configfs patch. This patch (of 5): We don't want to hardcode default groups at subsystem creation time. We export: * configfs_register_group * configfs_unregister_group to allow drivers to programatically create/destroy groups later, after module init time. This is needed for IIO configfs support.

configfs: fix race between dentry put and lookup

2013-11-22T00:42:27+00:00

A race window in configfs, it starts from one dentry is UNHASHED and end before configfs_d_iput is called. In this window, if a lookup happen, since the original dentry was UNHASHED, so a new dentry will be allocated, and then in configfs_attach_attr(), sd->s_dentry will be updated to the new dentry. Then in configfs_d_iput(), BUG_ON(sd->s_dentry != dentry) will be triggered and system panic. sys_open: sys_close: ... fput dput dentry_kill __d_drop <--- dentry unhashed here, but sd->dentry still point to this dentry. lookup_real configfs_lookup configfs_attach_attr---> update sd->s_dentry to new allocated dentry here. d_kill configfs_d_iput <--- BUG_ON(sd->s_dentry != dentry) triggered here. To fix it, change configfs_d_iput to not update sd->s_dentry if sd->s_count > 2, that means there are another dentry is using the sd beside the one that is going to be put. Use configfs_dirent_lock in configfs_attach_attr to sync with configfs_d_iput. With the following steps, you can reproduce the bug. 1. enable ocfs2, this will mount configfs at /sys/kernel/config and fill configure in it. 2. run the following script. while [ 1 ]; do cat /sys/kernel/config/cluster/$your_cluster_name/idle_timeout_ms > /dev/null; done & while [ 1 ]; do cat /sys/kernel/config/cluster/$your_cluster_name/idle_timeout_ms > /dev/null; done & Signed-off-by: Junxiao Bi Cc: Joel Becker Cc: Al Viro Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
