bitmap and its derivatives such as cpumask and nodemask currently only
provide formatting functions which put the output string into the
provided buffer; however, how long this buffer should be isn't defined
anywhere and given that some of these bitmaps can be too large to be
formatted into an on-stack buffer it users sometimes are unnecessarily
forced to come up with creative solutions and compromises for the
buffer just to printk these bitmaps.

There have been a couple different attempts at making this easier.

1. Way back, PeterZ tried printk '%pb' extension with the precision
   for bit width - '%.*pb'.  This was intuitive and made sense but
   unfortunately triggered a compile warning about using precision
   for a pointer.

   http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1336577562.2527.58.camel@twins

2. I implemented bitmap_pr_cont[_list]() and its wrappers for cpumask
   and nodemask.  This works but PeterZ pointed out that pr_cont's
   tendency to produce broken lines when multiple CPUs are printing is
   bothering considering the usages.

   http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1418226774-30215-3-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org

So, this patch is another attempt at teaching printk and friends how
to print bitmaps.  It's almost identical to what PeterZ tried with
precision but it uses the field width for the number of bits instead
of precision.  The format used is '%*pb[l]', with the optional
trailing 'l' specifying list format instead of hex masks.

This is a valid format string and doesn't trigger compiler warnings;
however, it does make it impossible to specify output field width when
printing bitmaps.  I think this is an acceptable trade-off given how
much easier it makes printing bitmaps and that we don't have any
in-kernel user which is using the field width specification.  If any
future user wants to use field width with a bitmap, it'd have to
format the bitmap into a string buffer and then print that buffer with
width spec, which isn't different from how it should be done now.

This patch implements bitmap[_list]_string() which are called from the
vsprintf pointer() formatting function.  The implementation is mostly
identical to bitmap_scn[list]printf() except that the output is
performed in the vsprintf way.  These functions handle formatting into
too small buffers and sprintf() family of functions report the correct
overrun output length.

bitmap_scn[list]printf() are now thin wrappers around scnprintf().

bitmap implements two variants of scnprintf functions to format a bitmap
into a string and cpumask and nodemask wrap them to provide equivalent
interfaces.  The scnprintf family of functions require a string buffer as
an output target which complicates code paths which just want to print out
the mask through printk for informational or debug purposes as they have
to worry about how large the buffer should be and whether it's too large
to allocate on stack.

Neither cpumask or nodemask provides a guildeline on how large the target
buffer should be forcing users come up with their own solutions - some
allocate an arbitrarily sized buffer which is small enough to allocate on
stack but may be too short in corner cases, other come up with a custom
upper limit calculation considering the output format, some allocate the
buffer dynamically while one resorted to using lock to synchronize access
to a static buffer.

This is an artificial problem which is being solved repeatedly for no
benefit.  In a lot of cases, the output area already exists and can be
targeted directly making the intermediate buffer unnecessary.  This
patchset teaches printf family of functions how to format bitmaps and
replace the dedicated formatting functions with it.

Pointer formatting is extended to cover bitmap formatting.  It uses the
field width for the number of bits instead of precision.  The format used
is '%*pb[l]', with the optional trailing 'l' specifying list format
instead of hex masks.  For more details, please see 0002.

This patch (of 31):

Currently, the formatting and parsing functions in cpumask.h use
nr_cpumask_bits like other cpumask functions; however, nr_cpumask_bits
is either NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids depending on CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK.
This leads to inconsistent behaviors.

With CONFIG_NR_CPUS=512 and !CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK

  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
  00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000
  # cat /proc/self/status | grep Cpus_allowed:
  Cpus_allowed:   f

With CONFIG_NR_CPUS=1024 and CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK (fedora default)

  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
  0
  # cat /proc/self/status | grep Cpus_allowed:
  Cpus_allowed:   f

Note that /proc/self/status is always using nr_cpu_ids regardless of
config.  This is because seq cpumask formattings functions always use
nr_cpu_ids.

Given that the same output fields may switch between the two forms,
converging on nr_cpu_ids always isn't too likely to surprise userland.
This patch updates the formatting and parsing functions in cpumask.h
to always use nr_cpu_ids.  There's no point in dealing with CPUs which
aren't even possible on the machine.

When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid
making a separate copy of its name.  It's currently only used for sysfs
attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged.
There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted
dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the
rodata section.

Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(),
there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around.  Remove it.

kstrdup() is often used to duplicate strings where neither source neither
destination will be ever modified.  In such case we can just reuse the
source instead of duplicating it.  The problem is that we must be sure
that the source is non-modifiable and its life-time is long enough.

I suspect the good candidates for such strings are strings located in
kernel .rodata section, they cannot be modifed because the section is
read-only and their life-time is equal to kernel life-time.

This small patchset proposes alternative version of kstrdup -
kstrdup_const, which returns source string if it is located in .rodata
otherwise it fallbacks to kstrdup.  To verify if the source is in
.rodata function checks if the address is between sentinels
__start_rodata, __end_rodata.  I guess it should work with all
architectures.

The main patch is accompanied by four patches constifying kstrdup for
cases where situtation described above happens frequently.

I have tested the patchset on mobile platform (exynos4210-trats) and it
saves 3272 string allocations.  Since minimal allocation is 32 or 64
bytes depending on Kconfig options the patchset saves respectively about
100KB or 200KB of memory.

Stats from tested platform show that the main offender is sysfs:

By caller:
  2260 __kernfs_new_node
    631 clk_register+0xc8/0x1b8
    318 clk_register+0x34/0x1b8
      51 kmem_cache_create
      12 alloc_vfsmnt

By string (with count >= 5):
    883 power
    876 subsystem
    135 parameters
    132 device
     61 iommu_group
    ...

This patch (of 5):

Add an alternative version of kstrdup which returns pointer to constant
char array.  The function checks if input string is in persistent and
read-only memory section, if yes it returns the input string, otherwise it
fallbacks to kstrdup.

kstrdup_const is accompanied by kfree_const performing conditional memory
deallocation of the string.

Commit 8f243af4 ("sections: fix const sections for crc32 table")
removed the compile-time generated crc32 tables from the RO sections,
because it conflicts with the definition of __cacheline_aligned which
puts all such aligned data into .data..cacheline_aligned section
optimized for wasting less space, and can cause alignment issues when
used in combination with const with some gcc versions like 4.7.0 due to
a gcc bug [1].

Given that most gcc versions should have the fix by now, we can just use
____cacheline_aligned, which only aligns the data but doesn't move it
into specific sections as opposed to __cacheline_aligned.  In case of
gcc versions having the mentioned bug, the alignment attribute will have
no effect, but the data will still be made RO.

After patch tables are in RO:

  $ nm -v lib/crc32.o | grep -1 -E "crc32c?table"
  0000000000000000 t arch_local_irq_enable

The first of these conditionals is completely redundant: If k == lim-1, we
must have off==0, so the second conditional will also trigger and then it
wouldn't matter if upper had some high bits set.  But the second
conditional is in fact also redundant, since it only serves to clear out
some high-order "don't care" bits of dst, about which no guarantee is
made.

We can shift the bits from lower and upper into place before assembling
dst[k + off]; moving the shift of lower into the branch where we already
know that rem is non-zero allows us to remove a conditional.

gcc can generate slightly better code for stuff like "nbits %
BITS_PER_LONG" when it knows nbits is not negative.  Since negative size
bitmaps or shift amounts don't make sense, change these parameters of
bitmap_shift_right to unsigned.

If off >= lim (which requires shift >= nbits), k is initialized with a
large positive value, but since I've let k continue to be signed, the loop
will never run and dst will be zeroed as expected.  Inside the loop, k is
guaranteed to be non-negative, so the fact that it is promoted to unsigned
in the various expressions it appears in is harmless.

Also use "shift" and "nbits" consistently for the parameter names.

If left is 0, we can just let mask be ~0UL, so that anding with it is a
no-op.  Conveniently, BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK provides precisely what we
need, and we can eliminate left.

If the condition k==lim-1 is true, we must have off == 0 (otherwise, k
could never become that big).  But in that case we have upper == 0 and
hence dst[k] == (src[k] & mask) >> rem.  Since mask consists of a
consecutive range of bits starting from the LSB, anding dst[k] with mask
is a no-op.

I've previously changed the nbits parameter of most bitmap_* functions to
unsigned; now it is bitmap_shift_{left,right}'s turn.  This alone saves
some .text, but while at it I found that there were a few other things one
could do.  The end result of these seven patches is

  $ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/bitmap.o.{old,new}
  add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 0/-328 (-328)
  function                                     old     new   delta
  __bitmap_shift_right                         384     226    -158
  __bitmap_shift_left                          306     136    -170

and less importantly also a smaller stack footprint

  $ stack-o-meter.pl master bitmap
  file                 function                       old  new  delta
  lib/bitmap.o         __bitmap_shift_right             24    8  -16
  lib/bitmap.o         __bitmap_shift_left              24    0  -24

For each pair of 0 <= shift <= nbits <= 256 I've tested the end result
with a few randomly filled src buffers (including garbage beyond nbits),
in each case verifying that the shift {left,right}-most bits of dst are
zero and the remaining nbits-shift bits correspond to src, so I'm fairly
confident I didn't screw up.  That hasn't stopped me from being wrong
before, though.

This patch (of 7):

gcc can generate slightly better code for stuff like "nbits %
BITS_PER_LONG" when it knows nbits is not negative.  Since negative size
bitmaps or shift amounts don't make sense, change these parameters of
bitmap_shift_right to unsigned.

The expressions involving "lim - 1" are still ok, since if lim is 0 the
loop is never executed.

Also use "shift" and "nbits" consistently for the parameter names.

On little-endian, there's no reason to have an extra, presumably less

Make the prototype of bitmap_copy_le the same as bitmap_copy's.  All other
bitmap_* functions take unsigned long* parameters; there's no reason this
should be special.

The only current user is the static inline uwb_mas_bm_copy_le, which
already does the void* laundering, so the end users can pass their u8 or
__le32 buffers without a cast.

Furthermore, this allows us to simply let bitmap_copy_le be an alias for
bitmap_copy on little-endian; see next patch.
