2020-11-05uio: free uio id after uio file node is freedLang Dai1-2/+2
[ Upstream commit 8fd0e2a6df262539eaa28b0a2364cca10d1dc662 ] uio_register_device() do two things. 1) get an uio id from a global pool, e.g. the id is <A> 2) create file nodes like /sys/class/uio/uio<A> uio_unregister_device() do two things. 1) free the uio id <A> and return it to the global pool 2) free the file node /sys/class/uio/uio<A> There is a situation is that one worker is calling uio_unregister_device(), and another worker is calling uio_register_device(). If the two workers are X and Y, they go as below sequence, 1) X free the uio id <AAA> 2) Y get an uio id <AAA> 3) Y create file node /sys/class/uio/uio<AAA> 4) X free the file note /sys/class/uio/uio<AAA> Then it will failed at the 3rd step and cause the phenomenon we saw as it is creating a duplicated file node. Failure reports as follows: sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/uio/uio10' Call Trace: sysfs_do_create_link_sd.isra.2+0x9e/0xb0 sysfs_create_link+0x25/0x40 device_add+0x2c4/0x640 __uio_register_device+0x1c5/0x576 [uio] adf_uio_init_bundle_dev+0x231/0x280 [intel_qat] adf_uio_register+0x1c0/0x340 [intel_qat] adf_dev_start+0x202/0x370 [intel_qat] adf_dev_start_async+0x40/0xa0 [intel_qat] process_one_work+0x14d/0x410 worker_thread+0x4b/0x460 kthread+0x105/0x140 ? process_one_work+0x410/0x410 ? kthread_bind+0x40/0x40 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x40 Code: 85 c0 48 89 c3 74 12 b9 00 10 00 00 48 89 c2 31 f6 4c 89 ef e8 ec c4 ff ff 4c 89 e2 48 89 de 48 c7 c7 e8 b4 ee b4 e8 6a d4 d7 ff <0f> 0b 48 89 df e8 20 fa f3 ff 5b 41 5c 41 5d 5d c3 66 0f 1f 84 ---[ end trace a7531c1ed5269e84 ]--- c6xxvf b002:00:00.0: Failed to register UIO devices c6xxvf b002:00:00.0: Failed to register UIO devices Signed-off-by: Lang Dai <lang.dai@intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1600054002-17722-1-git-send-email-lang.dai@intel.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

2017-04-08uio: Allow handling of non page-aligned memory regionsMichal Sojka1-1/+1
Since commit b65502879556 ("uio: we cannot mmap unaligned page contents") addresses and sizes of UIO memory regions must be page-aligned. If the address in the BAR register is not page-aligned (which is the case of the mf264 card), the mentioned commit forces the UIO driver to round the address down to the page size. Then, there is no easy way for user-space to learn the offset of the actual memory region within the page, because the offset seen in /sys/class/uio/uio?/maps/map?/offset is calculated from the rounded address and thus it is always zero. Fix that problem by including the offset in struct uio_mem. UIO drivers can set this field and userspace can read its value from /sys/class/uio/uio?/maps/map?/offset. The following commits update the uio_mf264 driver to set this new offs field. Drivers for hardware with page-aligned BARs need not to be modified provided that they initialize struct uio_info (which contains uio_mem) with zeros.

Commit e6789cd3dfb553077606ccafeb05e0043f072481 (uio: Simplify uio error path by using devres functions) converted uio to use devm_request_irq(). This introduced a change in behaviour since the IRQ is associated with the parent device instead of the created UIO device. The IRQ will remain active after uio_unregister_device() is called, and some drivers will crash because of this. The patch fixes this.

2013-12-02uio: we cannot mmap unaligned page contentsLinus Torvalds1-0/+2
In commit 7314e613d5ff ("Fix a few incorrectly checked [io_]remap_pfn_range() calls") the uio driver started more properly checking the passed-in user mapping arguments against the size of the actual uio driver data. That in turn exposed that some driver authors apparently didn't realize that mmap can only work on a page granularity, and had tried to use it with smaller mappings, with the new size check catching that out. So since it's not just the user mmap() arguments that can be confused, make the uio mmap code also verify that the uio driver has the memory allocated at page boundaries in order for mmap to work. If the device memory isn't properly aligned, we return [ENODEV] The fildes argument refers to a file whose type is not supported by mmap(). as per the open group documentation on mmap.

2011-10-18uio: Support physical addresses >32 bits on 32-bit systemsKai Jiang1-4/+3
To support >32-bit physical addresses for UIO_MEM_PHYS type we need to extend the width of 'addr' in struct uio_mem. Numerous platforms like embedded PPC, ARM, and X86 have support for systems with larger physical address than logical. Since 'addr' may contain a physical, logical, or virtual address the easiest solution is to just change the type to 'phys_addr_t' which should always be greater than or equal to the sizeof(void *) such that it can properly hold any of the address types. For physical address we can support up to a 44-bit physical address on a typical 32-bit system as we utilize remap_pfn_range() for the mapping of the memory region and pfn's are represnted by shifting the address by the page size (typically 4k).

2010-10-22uio: Statically allocate uio_class and use class .dev_attrs.Eric W. Biederman1-35/+18
Instead of adding uio class attributes manually after the uio device has been created and we have sent a uevent to userspace, use the class attribute mechanism. This removes races and makes the code simpler. At the same time don't bother to dynamically allocate a struct class for uio, just declare one statically. Less code is needed and it is easier to set the class parameters.tune the class Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2010-10-22uio: Support 2^MINOR_BITS minorsEric W. Biederman1-6/+37
register_chrdev limits uio devices to 256 minor numbers which causes problems on one system I have with 384+ uio devices. So instead set UIO_MAX_DEVICES to the maximum number of minors and use alloc_chrdev_region to reserve the uio minors. The final result is that the code works the same but the uio driver now supports any minor the idr allocator comes up with. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
