[RFC PATCH kernel] powerpc/ioda: Set "read" permission when "write" is set

From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <hidden>
Date: 2016-01-12 04:41:24

Quite often drivers set only "write" permission assuming that this
includes "read" permission as well and this works on plenty platforms.
However IODA2 is strict about this and produces an EEH when "read"
permission is not and reading happens.

This adds a workaround in IODA code to always add the "read" bit when
the "write" bit is set.

Ben, what was the driver which did not set "read" and caused EEH?

Just to be precise, the driver wasn't responsible for setting READ. The 
driver called scsi_dma_map() and the scsicmd was set (by scsi layer) as 
DMA_FROM_DEVICE so the current code would set the permissions to 
WRITE-ONLY. Previously, and in other architectures, this scsicmd would 
have resulted in READ+WRITE permissions on the DMA map.

I am still working on getting a machine to try this on. From code

We finally got the chance to test it end of last week. I forgot to 
update everyone Monday. B all appearances, the patch fixes the problem. 
We did not see any new issues with the patch (vs. same test scenarios 
without).

I'll also update the bugzilla.

Thanks,

I am still working on getting a machine to try this on. From code
inspection, it looks like it should work. The problem is shortage of
machines and machines tied-up by Test.
Any progress here? Thanks.

Re: [RFC PATCH kernel] powerpc/ioda: Set "read" permission when "write" is set

Quite often drivers set only "write" permission assuming that this
includes "read" permission as well and this works on plenty platforms.
However IODA2 is strict about this and produces an EEH when "read"
permission is not and reading happens.

This adds a workaround in IODA code to always add the "read" bit when
the "write" bit is set.

Ben, what was the driver which did not set "read" and caused EEH?

Are you planning on sending a non-RFC version of this?

If so is it an urgent fix I should send upstream now? And if so should it
also be CC'ed to stable?

cheers

I vote for the more-urgent case. This is the result of a fairly recent 
change in behavior and we may not have found all the adapters that will 
break yet. If we get this upstream sooner, it means less exposure.

Just posted.

Yes.

Ben suggested that yes, it should. Thanks. Sorry about breaking things.
