Documentation/printk-formats.txt is a candidate for conversion to ReStructuredText format. Some effort has already been made to do this conversion even thought the suffix is currently .txt Changes required to complete conversion - Move printk-formats.txt to core-api/printk-formats.rst - Add entry to Documentation/core-api/index.rst - Remove entry from Documentation/00-INDEX - Fix minor grammatical errors. - Order heading adornments as suggested by rst docs. - Use 'Passed by reference' uniformly. - Update pointer documentation around %px specifier. - Fix erroneous double backticks (to commas). - Remove extraneous double backticks (suggested by Jonathan Corbet). - Simplify documentation for kobject.

Instead, just fall back on the new '%p' behavior which hashes the pointer. Otherwise, '%pK' - that was intended to mark a pointer as restricted - just ends up leaking pointers that a normal '%p' wouldn't leak. Which just make the whole thing pointless. I suspect we should actually get rid of '%pK' entirely, and make it just work as '%p' regardless, but this is the minimal obvious fix. People who actually use 'kptr_restrict' should weigh in on which behavior they want.

printk specifier %p now hashes all addresses before printing. Sometimes we need to see the actual unmodified address. This can be achieved using %lx but then we face the risk that if in future we want to change the way the Kernel handles printing of pointers we will have to grep through the already existent 50 000 %lx call sites. Let's add specifier %px as a clear, opt-in, way to print a pointer and maintain some level of isolation from all the other hex integer output within the Kernel. Add printk specifier %px to print the actual unmodified address. Signed-off-by: NTobin C. Harding <me@tobin.cc>

Currently there exist approximately 14 000 places in the kernel where addresses are being printed using an unadorned %p. This potentially leaks sensitive information regarding the Kernel layout in memory. Many of these calls are stale, instead of fixing every call lets hash the address by default before printing. This will of course break some users, forcing code printing needed addresses to be updated. Code that _really_ needs the address will soon be able to use the new printk specifier %px to print the address. For what it's worth, usage of unadorned %p can be broken down as follows (thanks to Joe Perches). $ git grep -E '%p[^A-Za-z0-9]' | cut -f1 -d"/" | sort | uniq -c 1084 arch 20 block 10 crypto 32 Documentation 8121 drivers 1221 fs 143 include 101 kernel 69 lib 100 mm 1510 net 40 samples 7 scripts 11 security 166 sound 152 tools 2 virt Add function ptr_to_id() to map an address to a 32 bit unique identifier.

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: NMark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

90% of the usage of device node's full_name is printing it out in a kernel message. However, storing the full path for every node is wasteful and redundant. With a custom format specifier, we can generate the full path at run-time and eventually remove the full path from every node. For instance typical use is: pr_info("Frobbing node %s\n", node->full_name); Which can be written now as: pr_info("Frobbing node %pOF\n", node); '%pO' is the base specifier to represent kobjects with '%pOF' representing struct device_node. Currently, struct device_node is the only supported type of kobject. More fine-grained control of formatting includes printing the name, flags, path-spec name and others, explained in the documentation entry. Originally written by Pantelis, but pretty much rewrote the core function using existing string/number functions. The 2 passes were unnecessary and have been removed. Also, updated the checkpatch.pl check. The unittest code was written by Grant Likely.

Our "little endian" UUID really is a Wintel GUID, so rename it and its helpers such (guid_t). The big endian UUID is the only true one, so give it the name uuid_t. The uuid_le and uuid_be names are retained for now, but will hopefully go away soon. The exception to that are the _cmp helpers that will be replaced by better primitives ASAP and thus don't get the new names. Also the _to_bin helpers are named to match the better named uuid_parse routine in userspace. Also remove the existing typedef in XFS that's now been superceeded by the generic type name.

Implement basic character sets for the '%[' conversion specifier. The '%[' conversion specifier matches a nonempty sequence of characters from the specified set of accepted (or with '^', rejected) characters between the brackets. The substring matched is to be made up of characters in (or not in) the set. This is useful for matching substrings that are delimited by something other than spaces. This implementation differs from its glibc counterpart in the following ways: (1) No support for character ranges (e.g., 'a-z' or '0-9') (2) The hyphen '-' is not a special character (3) The closing bracket ']' cannot be matched (4) No support (yet) for discarding matching input ('%*[') The bitmap code is largely based upon sample code which was provided by Rasmus. The motivation for adding character set support to sscanf originally stemmed from the kernel livepatching project. An ongoing patchset utilizes new livepatch Elf symbol and section names to store important metadata livepatch needs to properly apply its patches. Such metadata is stored in these section and symbol names as substrings delimited by periods '.' and commas ','. For example, a livepatch symbol name might look like this: .klp.sym.vmlinux.printk,0 However, sscanf currently can only extract "substrings" delimited by whitespace using the "%s" specifier. Thus for the above symbol name, one cannot not use sscanf() to extract substrings "vmlinux" or "printk", for example. A number of discussions on the livepatch mailing list dealing with string parsing code for extracting these '.' and ',' delimited substrings eventually led to the conclusion that such code would be completely unnecessary if the kernel sscanf() supported character sets. Thus only a single sscanf() call would be necessary to extract these substrings. In addition, such an addition to sscanf() could benefit other areas of the kernel that might have a similar need in the future.

In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not usable for e.g. sysfs export. To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp), gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified. It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the %p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a non-critical path is negligible.

When set to 1, this needs to check whether or not we're in IRQ. However, when set to 2, this check is unneccessary, and produces confusing results in dmesg.

special_hex_number() is a helper to print a fixed size type in a hex format with '0x' prefix, zero padding, and small letters. In the module we have already several copies of such code. Consolidate them under special_hex_number() helper. There are couple of differences though. It seems nobody cared about the output in case of CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n, when printing symbol address, because the asked field width is not enough to care last 2 characters in the string represantation of the pointer.

The field width is overloaded to pass some extra information for some %p extensions (e.g. #bits for %pb). But we might silently truncate the passed value when we stash it in struct printf_spec (see e.g. "lib/vsprintf.c: expand field_width to 24 bits"). Hopefully 23 value bits should now be enough for everybody, but if not, let's make some noise. Do the same for the precision. In both cases, clamping seems more sensible than truncating. While, according to POSIX, "A negative precision is taken as if the precision were omitted.", the kernel's printf has always treated that case as if the precision was 0, so we use that as lower bound. For the field width, the smallest representable value is actually -(1<<23), but a negative field width means 'set the LEFT flag and use the absolute value', so we want the absolute value to fit.

Maurizio Lombardi reported a problem [1] with the %pb extension: It doesn't work for sufficiently large bitmaps, since the size is stashed in the field_width field of the struct printf_spec, which is currently an s16. Concretely, this manifested itself in /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/map being empty, since the bitmap printer got a size of 0, which is the 16 bit truncation of the actual bitmap size. We do want to keep struct printf_spec at 8 bytes so that it can cheaply be passed by value. The qualifier field is only used for internal bookkeeping in format_decode, so we might as well use a local variable for that. This gives us an additional 8 bits, which we can then use for the field width. To stay in 8 bytes, we need to do a little rearranging and make the type member a bitfield as well. For consistency, change all the members to bit fields. gcc doesn't generate much worse code with these changes (in fact, bloat-o-meter says we save 300 bytes - which I think is a little surprising). I didn't find a BUILD_BUG/compiletime_assertion/... which would work outside function context, so for now I just open-coded it.

If the string corresponding to a %s specifier can change under us, we might end up copying a \0 byte to the output buffer. There might be callers who expect the output buffer to contain a genuine C string whose length is exactly the snprintf return value (assuming truncation hasn't happened or has been checked for). We can avoid this by only passing over the source string once, stopping the first time we meet a nul byte (or when we reach the given precision), and then letting widen_string() handle left/right space padding. As a small bonus, this code reuse also makes the generated code slightly smaller.

Quoting from 2aa2f9e2 ("lib/vsprintf.c: improve sanity check in vsnprintf()"): On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0. Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a 3 GiB one. So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along. This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf. I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just do it now.

If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*. When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format string, but we can't rely on that always being the case. Also, gcc doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly. So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the format/arguments. If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.

Move all pointer-formatting documentation to one place in the code and one place in the documentation instead of keeping it in three places with different level of completeness. Documentation/printk-formats.txt has detailed information about each modifier, docstring above pointer() has short descriptions of them (as that is the function dealing with %p) and docstring above vsprintf() is removed as redundant. Both docstrings in the code that were modified are updated with a reminder of updating the documentation upon any further change.

I hadn't had enough coffee when I wrote this. Currently, the final increment of buf depends on the value loaded from the table, and causes gcc to emit a cmov immediately before the return. It is smarter to let it depend on r, since the increment can then be computed in parallel with the final load/store pair. It also shaves 16 bytes of .text.

The most expensive part of decimal conversion is the divisions by 10 (albeit done using reciprocal multiplication with appropriately chosen constants). I decided to see if one could eliminate around half of these multiplications by emitting two digits at a time, at the cost of a 200 byte lookup table, and it does indeed seem like there is something to be gained, especially on 64 bits. Microbenchmarking shows improvements ranging from -50% (for numbers uniformly distributed in [0, 2^64-1]) to -25% (for numbers heavily biased toward the smaller end, a more realistic distribution). On a larger scale, perf shows that top, one of the big consumers of /proc data, uses 0.5-1.0% fewer cpu cycles. I had to jump through some hoops to get the 32 bit code to compile and run on my 64 bit machine, so I'm not sure how relevant these numbers are, but just for comparison the microbenchmark showed improvements between -30% and -10%. The bloat-o-meter costs are around 150 bytes (the generated code is a little smaller, so it's not the full 200 bytes) on both 32 and 64 bit. I'm aware that extra cache misses won't show up in a microbenchmark as used above, but on the other hand decimal conversions often happen in bulk (for example in the case of top). I have of course tested that the new code generates the same output as the old, for both the first and last 1e10 numbers in [0,2^64-1] and 4e9 'random' numbers in-between.

The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf). So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like: Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination. It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences, otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever they previously contained. This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem(); since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops. In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref) if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for kasprintf("%pE") to work. In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics. Someone should definitely double-check this. In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it should stop poking around in seq_file internals.

The helper hex_string() is broken in two ways. First, it doesn't increment buf regardless of whether there is room to print, so callers such as kasprintf() that try to probe the correct storage to allocate will get a too small return value. But even worse, kasprintf() (and likely anyone else trying to find the size of the result) pass NULL for buf and 0 for size, so we also have end == NULL. But this means that the end-1 in hex_string() is (char*)-1, so buf < end-1 is true and we get a NULL pointer deref. I double-checked this with a trivial kernel module that just did a kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%14ph", "CrashBoomBang"). Nobody seems to be using %ph with kasprintf, but we might as well fix it before it hits someone.

At least since the initial git commit, when base was passed as a separate parameter, number() has only been called with bases 8, 10 and 16. I'm guessing that 66 was to accommodate 64 0/1, a sign and a '\0', but the buffer is only used for the actual digits. Octal digits carry 3 bits of information, so 24 is enough. Spell that 3*sizeof(num) so one less place needs to be changed should long long ever be 128 bits. Also remove the commented-out code that would handle an arbitrary base.

Since FORMAT_TYPE_INT is simply 1 more than FORMAT_TYPE_UINT, and similarly for BYTE/UBYTE, SHORT/USHORT, LONG/ULONG, we can eliminate a few instructions by making SIGN have the value 1 instead of 2, and then use arithmetic instead of branches for computing the right spec->type. It's a little hacky, but certainly in the same spirit as SMALL needing to have the value 0x20. For example for the spec->qualifier == 'l' case, gcc now generates 75e: 0f b6 53 01 movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx 762: 83 e2 01 and $0x1,%edx 765: 83 c2 09 add $0x9,%edx 768: 88 13 mov %dl,(%rbx) instead of 763: 0f b6 53 01 movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx 767: 83 e2 02 and $0x2,%edx 76a: 80 fa 01 cmp $0x1,%dl 76d: 19 d2 sbb %edx,%edx 76f: 83 c2 0a add $0xa,%edx 772: 88 13 mov %dl,(%rbx) Signed-off-by: NRasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
