      remove lots of IS_ERR_VALUE abuses · 287980e4
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they
      pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long'
      argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended
      on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an
      unsigned type.
      
      However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'
      argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are
      8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.
      
      Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that
      were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any
      users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments.
      
      This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find
      on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the
      moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE()
      because there are probably still architecture specific users
      elsewhere.
      
      Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off
      using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'.
      The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for
      is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove
      the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'.
      For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions
      are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior.
      
      I was using this definition for testing:
      
       #define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \
             unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO))
      
      which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with
      the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed
      to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time
      warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument.
      
      I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended
      up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After
      the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion
      (fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus
      asked me to send the whole thing again.

      ACPI / battery: Correctly serialise with the pending async probe · 5dfa0c73
      Chris Wilson 提交于
      async_synchronize_cookie() only serialises all tasks up to the specified
      cookie, and importantly does not wait for the task corresponding with
      the cookie. [This is so that it can be trivially used from inside the
      async_func_t in order to serialise with all preceding tasks.] In order
      to serialise with acpi_battery_init_async() we need to compensate and
      pass in the next cookie instead.
      
      The impact today is zero since performing an async_schedule() from inside
      a module init function will trigger an async_synchronize_full() prior to
      the module loader's completion. However, if the probe was moved to its
      own unregistered async_domain, then the async_synchronize_cookie would
      be replaced with an async_synchronize_full_domain.

      ACPI / GED: make evged.c explicitly non-modular · 437014bd
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      The Makefile/Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
      
      Makefile:acpi-$(CONFIG_ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE_ONLY) += evged.o
      
      drivers/acpi/Kconfig:config ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE_ONLY
      drivers/acpi/Kconfig:   bool "Hardware-reduced ACPI support only" if EXPERT
      
      ...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
      
      Lets remove the couple traces of modularity so that when reading the
      code there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
      
      Since module_platform_driver() uses the same init level priority as
      builtin_platform_driver() the init ordering remains unchanged with
      this commit.
      
      The file wasn't explicitly including the module.h file but it did
      already have init.h so, unlike similar changes, this one has no
      header changes at all.
      
      We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag since all that information
      is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.
