There is no\nprotection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the\nchain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread:\n\n http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d113018709002036\u0026w\u003d2\n\nWe noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage\nclasses:\n\n\t\"Blocking\" chains are always called from a process context\n\tand the callout routines are allowed to sleep;\n\n\t\"Atomic\" chains can be called from an atomic context and\n\tthe callout routines are not allowed to sleep.\n\nWe decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore\nthis set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking\nnotifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for \"raw\" notifiers (which is\nreally just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are\nused for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for\nregistration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are\nexplained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in\nkernel/sys.c.\n\nWith atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain\nlinks will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by\nentries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no\nguarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The\nidea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and\nblocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to\nhandle these things in their own way.)\n\nThere are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For\natomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in\na process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a\ncallout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister\nentries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code\nhad to be changed to avoid it.)\n\nSince atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use\nspinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost\nentirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much\nless frequent that calling a chain.\n\nHere is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None\nof them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.\n\n ATOMIC CHAINS\n -------------\narch/i386/kernel/traps.c:\t\ti386die_chain\narch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tia64die_chain\narch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:\t\tpowerpc_die_chain\narch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tsparc64die_chain\narch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tdie_chain\ndrivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:\txaction_notifier_list\nkernel/panic.c:\t\t\t\tpanic_notifier_list\nkernel/profile.c:\t\t\ttask_free_notifier\nnet/bluetooth/hci_core.c:\t\thci_notifier\nnet/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:\tip_conntrack_chain\nnet/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:\tip_conntrack_expect_chain\nnet/ipv6/addrconf.c:\t\t\tinet6addr_chain\nnet/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:\tnf_conntrack_chain\nnet/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:\tnf_conntrack_expect_chain\nnet/netlink/af_netlink.c:\t\tnetlink_chain\n\n BLOCKING CHAINS\n ---------------\narch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:\tpSeries_reconfig_chain\narch/s390/kernel/process.c:\t\tidle_chain\narch/x86_64/kernel/process.c\t\tidle_notifier\ndrivers/base/memory.c:\t\t\tmemory_chain\ndrivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c\t\tcpufreq_policy_notifier_list\ndrivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c\t\tcpufreq_transition_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/adb.c:\t\tadb_client_list\ndrivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c\t\tsleep_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c\t\tsleep_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c\twf_client_list\ndrivers/usb/core/notify.c\t\tusb_notifier_list\ndrivers/video/fbmem.c\t\t\tfb_notifier_list\nkernel/cpu.c\t\t\t\tcpu_chain\nkernel/module.c\t\t\t\tmodule_notify_list\nkernel/profile.c\t\t\tmunmap_notifier\nkernel/profile.c\t\t\ttask_exit_notifier\nkernel/sys.c\t\t\t\treboot_notifier_list\nnet/core/dev.c\t\t\t\tnetdev_chain\nnet/decnet/dn_dev.c:\t\t\tdnaddr_chain\nnet/ipv4/devinet.c:\t\t\tinetaddr_chain\n\nIt\u0027s possible that some of these classifications are wrong. If they are,\nplease let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that\ngets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking\nused for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.\n(However, if the chain\u0027s callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be\natomic.)\n\nThe patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating\nmaterial written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew\nMorton.\n\n[jes@sgi.com: restructure the notifier chain initialization macros]\nSigned-off-by: Alan Stern \u003cstern@rowland.harvard.edu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman \u003csekharan@us.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jes Sorensen \u003cjes@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "14cc3e2b633bb64063698980974df4535368e98f", "tree": "d542c9db7376de199d640b8e34d5630460b217b5", "parents": [ "353ab6e97b8f209dbecc9f650f1f84e3da2a7bb1" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Sun Mar 26 01:37:14 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Mar 26 08:56:55 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] sem2mutex: misc static one-file mutexes\n\nSemaphore to mutex conversion.\n\nThe conversion was generated via scripts, and the result was validated\nautomatically via a script as well.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nCc: Dave Jones \u003cdavej@codemonkey.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\nCc: Ralf Baechle \u003cralf@linux-mips.org\u003e\nCc: Jens Axboe \u003caxboe@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Neil Brown \u003cneilb@cse.unsw.edu.au\u003e\nAcked-by: Alasdair G Kergon \u003cagk@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Greg KH \u003cgreg@kroah.com\u003e\nCc: Dominik Brodowski \u003clinux@dominikbrodowski.net\u003e\nCc: Adam Belay \u003cambx1@neo.rr.com\u003e\nCc: Martin Schwidefsky \u003cschwidefsky@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: \"David S.

It solves\nthe problem of protocol numbers running out by introducing a so\ncalled controller taking care of id management and name resolving.\n\nGeneric netlink modules register themself after filling out their\nid card (struct genl_family), after successful registration the\nmodules are able to register callbacks to command numbers by\nfilling out a struct genl_ops and calling genl_register_op(). The\nregistered callbacks are invoked with attributes parsed making\nlife of simple modules a lot easier.\n\nAlthough generic netlink modules can request static identifiers,\nit is recommended to use GENL_ID_GENERATE and to let the controller\nassign a unique identifier to the module. Userspace applications\nwill then ask the controller and lookup the idenfier by the module\nname.\n\nDue to the current multicast implementation of netlink, the number\nof generic netlink modules is restricted to 1024 to avoid wasting\nmemory for the per socket multiacst subscription bitmask.\n\nSigned-off-by: Thomas Graf \u003ctgraf@suug.ch\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
