Hi Martin,
This patch series enables compiler-based lock context analysis for the
scsi_debug driver. Conditional locking is eliminated across command response
and error injection functions so that static analysis can verify lock
acquisitions and releases. Internal locking helper functions are annotated
with __acquires(),__releases(), __acquires_shared() and __releases_shared()
attributes. An error-path lock leak in resp_write_same() is fixed. Finally,
lock context analysis is enabled in drivers/scsi/Makefile.
Please consider this patch series for the next merge window.
Thanks,
Bart.
Changes compared to v4:
- Add a Reviewed-by tag from Christoph Hellwig to patch 6/8.
- Drop __context_unsafe() from sdeb_read_lock(), sdeb_read_unlock(),
sdeb_write_lock(), and sdeb_write_unlock() in patch 7/8. Preserve the
original if (sdebug_no_rwlock) conditional structure and annotate with
__acquire_shared(), __release_shared(), __acquire(), and __release().
- Drop __context_unsafe() from sdeb_data_lock(), sdeb_data_unlock(),
sdeb_data_sector_lock(), and sdeb_data_sector_unlock() in patch 7/8,
and add explicit context capability transitions on the read paths.
- Retain __context_unsafe() exclusively for
sdeb_meta_{read,write}_{,un}lock() to prevent undefined pointer
arithmetic when sip is NULL under fake_rw.
- Update the commit description of patch 7/8 to reflect these changes.
Changes compared to v3:
- Add a new patch to split resp_atomic_write() and eliminate conditional
locking in atomic write handling.
- Pass the LBP state boolean down into __resp_write_same(),
__corrupt_lbas(), and __resp_write_dt0() to avoid repeated calls to
scsi_debug_lbp().
- Drop unused function arguments from __resp_read_dt0_dix() and
__resp_write_dt0_dix().
- Correct the return value descriptions in the header comments of
__resp_read_dt0_dix() and __resp_write_dt0_dix().
Changes compared to v2:
- Move DIX/DIF verification into a helper function (__resp_read_dt0_dix())
to reduce indentation.
- Remove unnecessary "else" branches after "return".
- Set the SCSI status code only if do_device_access() fails instead of
unconditionally setting it to DID_ERROR << 16 beforehand.
Changes compared to v1:
- Fix an issue where the error code was clobbered in resp_write_same() and
__resp_write_same() when fetch_to_dev_buffer() fails (John Garry and
sashiko-bot).
- Fix return value handling in resp_read_dt0() and resp_write_dt0():
previously a positive byte count returned by do_device_access() was
incorrectly treated as a SCSI status code and returned to the caller.
Now, pass the SCSI status via an output pointer and only trigger an error
return on negative return values (sashiko-bot).
- Improve lock context annotations:
* Annotate existing rwlock_t members (&sip->macc_data_lck,
&sip->macc_sector_lck, &sip->macc_meta_lck) directly with __acquires /
__releases instead of defining and embedding dummy context lock structs
in struct sdeb_store_info.
* Drop the unwarranted __context_unsafe() annotation from
sdeb_data_read_lock().
* Update the commit descriptions to match the code changes.

If fetch_to_dev_buffer() fails in resp_write_same(), the function jumps
to 'out' without releasing the data write lock acquired earlier via
sdeb_data_write_lock(). Jump to 'unlock' instead so that
sdeb_data_write_unlock() is called on the error path. This bug has been
discovered by building the scsi_debug driver with Clang and modified
lock context annotations. The modified lock context annotations are
available in patch "scsi: scsi_debug: Improve lock context annotations".

Since the Clang thread-safety analyzer does not support conditional
locking, split the function resp_write_same() such that all locking
statements end up in the same branch of an if-statement.

Move the inner logic of corrupt_lbas() into a new helper function
__corrupt_lbas() and call it from separate locked and unlocked branches
in corrupt_lbas(). This patch prepares for enabling context analysis.

Prepare the scsi_debug driver for enabling compiler-based lock context
analysis:
- Annotate the lock and unlock helper functions with __acquires,
__releases, __acquires_shared, and __releases_shared.
- Add __acquire() and __release() calls in the paths that do not match
the __acquires() / __releases() annotations.
- Annotate sdeb_meta_{read,write}_{,un}lock() with __context_unsafe()
because adding __acquire() and __release() calls in these functions is
not possible without triggering undefined behavior (taking the address
of a member of a structure with a NULL pointer as base address).

scsi: scsi_debug: Split resp_write_same()
This commit splits resp_write_same() into two functions to ensure all locking
statements end up in the same branch of an if-statement. This change is
intended to support the Clang thread-safety analyzer.

[Severity: Medium]
Does this early return result in a data race on the sip->storep buffer?
When a SCSI UNMAP command (or WRITE SAME with the unmap bit set) and a READ
command execute concurrently on the same LBA range of an LBP-enabled device,
unmap_region() modifies the data store via memset().
By returning early here, __resp_write_same() only holds the
sdeb_meta_write_lock (acquired in the resp_write_same() caller) and bypasses
acquiring the sdeb_data_write_lock.
Concurrently, read operations like resp_read_dt0() -> do_device_access()
acquire only the sdeb_data_read_lock and skip the sdeb_meta_read_lock entirely
when running on non-zoned/non-DIX devices.
Could this concurrent access to sip->storep result in torn or mixed reads?

I think this counts as a preexisting issue that has not been introduced
by this patch series.

Why can't this be modelled using a __acquire variant? And if you
add __context_unsafe(/*conditional locking*/) please add a detailed
comment why that is needed, otherwise no one is going to understand
this in the future.

Hi Christoph,
I will change the comment into "can't be annotated with
__{acquire,release}(,_shared}() without triggering undefined behavior".
What Sashiko reported on a Google-internal server for an
earlier attempt to annotate this and similar functions with
__{acquire,release}(,_shared}() has been included below. I think that
Sashiko is right:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Can this regression trigger an undefined behavior splat when sip is NULL?
When the scsi_debug driver is used with the module parameter fake_rw=1,
devip2sip() returns NULL. In this else branch, sip is explicitly NULL,
so evaluating &sip->macc_meta_lck means taking the address of a member
from a NULL pointer.
When compiled with Context Analysis and UBSAN (-fsanitize=null or
-fsanitize=pointer-overflow), the inline function call evaluates the
argument before the call and will trigger a runtime splat. Without UBSAN,
it calculates an invalid offset from a NULL pointer.
=======================================================================
Bart.

I think that ret < 0 is a better check, but this is pre-existing code
and this is not too important.
