Here is my first draft of a patch, and my understanding of
the interrupts and locking around channel->tuneproc.
channel->tuneproc seems to be called in three places:
1. In drivers/ide/ioctl.c, ata_ioctl calls it with channel->lock
taken and interrupts disabled.
2. In drivers/ide/probe.c, channel_probe calls
channel->tuneproc before channel->lock is defined, with interupts
enabled, after it has reserved the IO ports with request_region.
Nothing else knows about the IDE, and the IO ports have already been
reserved with request_region, so even another ISA probe running in
parallel should not collide.
3. In drivers/ide/pcidma.c, ide_register_subdriver calls
channel->udma_setup, which usually results in a call to
generic_udma_setup, which calls channel->tuneproc.
ide_register_subdriver has enabled IRQ's and is not holding
channel->lock. Although nothing else should be accessing the drive at
that point, I think it is possible that another process could be
accessing a second drive on the same cable and could collide. I think
this could happen if I were doing a lot of hard disk I/O while I
decide to load the ide-scsi module to talk to my IDE CDROM drive that
is on the same cable as the hard disk.
To fix the ide_register_subdriver caes, I have attached a
patch below to ide_register_subdriver in drivers/ide/main.c to take
channel->lock and disable interrupts before calling ch->udma_setup,
which is how udma_generic_setup is eventually called.
With this change, I believe I can remove all of the
cli()...restore_flags() pairs from the channel->tuneproc functions of
each IDE driver. I have also removed what appear to be some
completely usedly cli()...restore_flags() pairs in qd65xx.c. Finally,
I changed the cli..restore_flags() in the SCSI tape driver to use
spin_lock_irqflags instead. This last change I am least sure of. I
think it should work as well as what it replaced, but it may still be
overkill, as the comments in the code that it replaced mention.
I am running this patch on a computer with only one IDE hard
disk and one CPU. I'm working up the courage to install it on a
multiprocessor with multiple hard disks sharing IDE cables.
