These are just some very minor and misc cleanups in the PRNG. In prandom_u32() we store the result in an unsigned long which is unnecessary as it should be u32 instead that we get from prandom_u32_state(). prandom_bytes_state()'s comment is in kdoc format, so change it into such as it's done everywhere else. Also, use the normal comment style for the header comment. Last but not least for readability, add some newlines.

Having a discussion about sparse warnings in the kernel, and that we should clean them up, I decided to pick a random file to do so. This happened to be devres.c which gives the following warnings: CHECK lib/devres.c lib/devres.c:83:9: warning: cast removes address space of expression lib/devres.c:117:31: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different address spaces) lib/devres.c:117:31: expected void [noderef] <asn:2>* lib/devres.c:117:31: got void * lib/devres.c:125:31: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different address spaces) lib/devres.c:125:31: expected void [noderef] <asn:2>* lib/devres.c:125:31: got void * lib/devres.c:136:26: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) lib/devres.c:136:26: expected void [noderef] <asn:2>*[assigned] dest_ptr lib/devres.c:136:26: got void * lib/devres.c:226:9: warning: cast removes address space of expression Mostly it's just the use of typecasting to void * without adding __force, or returning ERR_PTR(-ESOMEERR) without typecasting to a __iomem type.

Currently kobject_uevent has somewhat unpredictable semantics. The point is, since it may call a usermode helper and wait for it to execute (UMH_WAIT_EXEC), it is impossible to say for sure what lock dependencies it will introduce for the caller - strictly speaking it depends on what fs the binary is located on and the set of locks fork may take. There are quite a few kobject_uevent's users that do not take this into account and call it with various mutexes taken, e.g. rtnl_mutex, net_mutex, which might potentially lead to a deadlock. Since there is actually no reason to wait for the usermode helper to execute there, let's make kobject_uevent start the helper asynchronously with the aid of the UMH_NO_WAIT flag. Personally, I'm interested in this, because I really want kobject_uevent to be called under the slab_mutex in the slub implementation as it used to be some time ago, because it greatly simplifies synchronization and automatically fixes a kmemcg-related race. However, there was a deadlock detected on an attempt to call kobject_uevent under the slab_mutex (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/14/45), which was reported to be fixed by releasing the slab_mutex for kobject_uevent. Unfortunately, there was no information about who exactly blocked on the slab_mutex causing the usermode helper to stall, neither have I managed to find this out or reproduce the issue. BTW, this is not the first attempt to make kobject_uevent use UMH_NO_WAIT. Previous one was made by commit f520360d ("kobject: don't block for each kobject_uevent"), but it was wrong (it passed arguments allocated on stack to async thread) so it was reverted in 05f54c13 ("Revert "kobject: don't block for each kobject_uevent"."). It targeted on speeding up the boot process though.

Previously, page cache radix tree nodes were freed after reclaim emptied out their page pointers. But now reclaim stores shadow entries in their place, which are only reclaimed when the inodes themselves are reclaimed. This is problematic for bigger files that are still in use after they have a significant amount of their cache reclaimed, without any of those pages actually refaulting. The shadow entries will just sit there and waste memory. In the worst case, the shadow entries will accumulate until the machine runs out of memory. To get this under control, the VM will track radix tree nodes exclusively containing shadow entries on a per-NUMA node list. Per-NUMA rather than global because we expect the radix tree nodes themselves to be allocated node-locally and we want to reduce cross-node references of otherwise independent cache workloads. A simple shrinker will then reclaim these nodes on memory pressure. A few things need to be stored in the radix tree node to implement the shadow node LRU and allow tree deletions coming from the list: 1. There is no index available that would describe the reverse path from the node up to the tree root, which is needed to perform a deletion. To solve this, encode in each node its offset inside the parent. This can be stored in the unused upper bits of the same member that stores the node's height at no extra space cost. 2. The number of shadow entries needs to be counted in addition to the regular entries, to quickly detect when the node is ready to go to the shadow node LRU list. The current entry count is an unsigned int but the maximum number of entries is 64, so a shadow counter can easily be stored in the unused upper bits. 3. Tree modification needs tree lock and tree root, which are located in the address space, so store an address_space backpointer in the node. The parent pointer of the node is in a union with the 2-word rcu_head, so the backpointer comes at no extra cost as well. 4. The node needs to be linked to an LRU list, which requires a list head inside the node. This does increase the size of the node, but it does not change the number of objects that fit into a slab page.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area surrounding a fault. It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is "empty tree slot". But this is about to change, though, as shadow page descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get evicted from memory. Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition of "page cache hole".

nla_strcmp compares the string length plus one, so it's implicitly including the nul-termination in the comparison. int nla_strcmp(const struct nlattr *nla, const char *str) { int len = strlen(str) + 1; ... d = memcmp(nla_data(nla), str, len); However, if NLA_STRING is used, userspace can send us a string without the nul-termination. This is a problem since the string comparison will not match as the last byte may be not the nul-termination. Fix this by skipping the comparison of the nul-termination if the attribute data is nul-terminated. Suggested by Thomas Graf.

Commit 4af712e8 ("random32: add prandom_reseed_late() and call when nonblocking pool becomes initialized") has added a late reseed stage that happens as soon as the nonblocking pool is marked as initialized. This fails in the case that the nonblocking pool gets initialized during __prandom_reseed()'s call to get_random_bytes(). In that case we'd double back into __prandom_reseed() in an attempt to do a late reseed - deadlocking on 'lock' early on in the boot process. Instead, just avoid even waiting to do a reseed if a reseed is already occuring.

While debug_dma_assert_idle() checks if a given *page* is actively undergoing dma the valid granularity of a dma mapping is a *cacheline*. Sander's testing shows that the warning message "DMA-API: exceeded 7 overlapping mappings of pfn..." is falsely triggering. The test is simply mapping multiple cachelines in a given page. Ultimately we want overlap tracking to be valid as it is a real api violation, so we need to track active mappings by cachelines. Update the active dma tracking to use the page-frame-relative cacheline of the mapping as the key, and update debug_dma_assert_idle() to check for all possible mapped cachelines for a given page. However, the need to track active mappings is only relevant when the dma-mapping is writable by the device. In fact it is fairly standard for read-only mappings to have hundreds or thousands of overlapping mappings at once. Limiting the overlap tracking to writable (!DMA_TO_DEVICE) eliminates this class of false-positive overlap reports. Note, the radix gang lookup is sub-optimal. It would be best if it stopped fetching entries once the search passed a page boundary. Nevertheless, this implementation does not perturb the original net_dma failing case. That is to say the extra overhead does not show up in terms of making the failing case pass due to a timing change.

Sometimes we have a struct resource where we know the type (MEM/IO/etc.) and the size, but we haven't assigned address space for it. The IORESOURCE_UNSET flag is a way to indicate this situation. For these "unset" resources, the start address is meaningless, so print only the size, e.g., - pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem 0x00000000-0x00001fff 64bit] + pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem size 0x2000 64bit] For %pr (printing with raw flags), we still print the address range, because %pr is mostly used for debugging anyway.

Currently, kobject is invoking kernfs_enable_ns() directly. This is fine now as sysfs and kernfs are enabled and disabled together. If sysfs is disabled, kernfs_enable_ns() is switched to dummy implementation too and everything is fine; however, kernfs will soon have its own config option CONFIG_KERNFS and !SYSFS && KERNFS will be possible, which can make kobject call into non-dummy kernfs_enable_ns() with NULL kernfs_node pointers leading to an oops. Introduce sysfs_enable_ns() which is a wrapper around kernfs_enable_ns() so that it can be made a noop depending only on CONFIG_SYSFS regardless of the planned CONFIG_KERNFS.

Commit d61931d8, "x86: Add optimized popcnt variants" introduced compile flag -fcall-saved-rdi for lib/hweight.c. When combined with options -fprofile-arcs and -O2, this flag causes gcc to generate broken constructor code. As a result, a 64 bit x86 kernel compiled with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y prints message "gcov: could not create file" and runs into sproadic BUGs during boot. The gcc people indicate that these kinds of problems are endemic when using ad hoc calling conventions. It is therefore best to treat any file compiled with ad hoc calling conventions as an isolated environment and avoid things like profiling or coverage analysis, since those subsystems assume a "normal" calling conventions. This patch avoids the bug by excluding lib/hweight.o from coverage profiling.

It really isn't very interesting to have DEBUG_INFO when doing compile coverage stuff (you wouldn't want to run the result anyway, that's kind of the whole point of COMPILE_TEST), and it currently makes the build take longer and use much more disk space for "all{yes,mod}config". There's somewhat active discussion about this still, and we might end up with some new config option for things like this (Andi points out that the silly X86_DECODER_SELFTEST option also slows down the normal coverage tests hugely), but I'm starting the ball rolling with this simple one-liner. DEBUG_INFO isn't that noticeable if you have tons of memory and a good IO subsystem, but it hurts you a lot if you don't - for very little upside for the common use.

steal_tags only happens when free tags is more than half of the total tags. This is too strict and can cause live lock. I found that if one cpu has free tags, but other cpu can't steal (thread is bound to specific cpus), threads which want to allocate tags are always sleeping. I found this when I run next patch, but this could happen without it I think. I did performance test too with null_blk.

Commit 0abdd7a8 ("dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()") was reworked to expand the overlap counter to the full range expressable by 3 tag bits, but it has a thinko in treating the overlap counter as a pure reference count for the entry. Instead of deleting when the reference-count drops to zero, we need to delete when the overlap-count drops below zero. Also, when detecting overflow we can just test the overlap-count > MAX rather than applying special meaning to 0.

In the gen_pool_dma_alloc() the dma pointer can be NULL and while assigning gen_pool_virt_to_phys(pool, vaddr) to dma caused the following crash on da850 evm: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 Internal error: Oops: 805 [#1] PREEMPT ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Tainted: G W 3.13.0-rc1-00001-g0609e45-dirty #5 task: c4830000 ti: c4832000 task.ti: c4832000 PC is at gen_pool_dma_alloc+0x30/0x3c LR is at gen_pool_virt_to_phys+0x74/0x80 Process swapper, call trace: gen_pool_dma_alloc+0x30/0x3c davinci_pm_probe+0x40/0xa8 platform_drv_probe+0x1c/0x4c driver_probe_device+0x98/0x22c __driver_attach+0x8c/0x90 bus_for_each_dev+0x6c/0x8c bus_add_driver+0x124/0x1d4 driver_register+0x78/0xf8 platform_driver_probe+0x20/0xa4 davinci_init_late+0xc/0x14 init_machine_late+0x1c/0x28 do_one_initcall+0x34/0x15c kernel_init_freeable+0xe4/0x1ac kernel_init+0x8/0xec This patch fixes the above.

This patch addresses a bug where connection reset would hang indefinately once percpu_ida_alloc() was starved for tags, due to the fact that it always assumed uninterruptible sleep mode. So now make percpu_ida_alloc() check for signal_pending_state() for making interruptible sleep optional, and convert iscsit_allocate_cmd() to set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE for GFP_KERNEL, or TASK_RUNNING for GFP_ATOMIC.

"ret", being set to -1 early on, gets cleared by the first invocation of lz4_decompress()/lz4_decompress_unknownoutputsize(), and hence subsequent failures wouldn't be noticed by the caller without setting it back to -1 right after those calls.

To help avoid an architecture failing to correctly check kernel/user boundaries when handling copy_to_user, copy_from_user, put_user, or get_user, perform some simple tests and fail to load if any of them behave unexpectedly. Specifically, this is to make sure there is a way to notice if things like what was fixed in commit 8404663f ("ARM: 7527/1: uaccess: explicitly check __user pointer when !CPU_USE_DOMAINS") ever regresses again, for any architecture. Additionally, adds new "user" selftest target, which loads this module.

This is a pair of test modules I'd like to see in the tree. Instead of putting these in lkdtm, where I've been adding various tests that trigger crashes, these don't make sense there since they need to be either distinctly separate, or their pass/fail state don't need to crash the machine. These live in lib/ for now, along with a few other in-kernel test modules, and use the slightly more common "test_" naming convention, instead of "test-". We should likely standardize on the former: $ find . -name 'test_*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l 4 $ find . -name 'test-*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l 2 The first is entirely a no-op module, designed to allow simple testing of the module loading and verification interface. It's useful to have a module that has no other uses or dependencies so it can be reliably used for just testing module loading and verification. The second is a module that exercises the user memory access functions, in an effort to make sure that we can quickly catch any regressions in boundary checking (e.g. like what was recently fixed on ARM). This patch (of 2): When doing module loading verification tests (for example, with module signing, or LSM hooks), it is very handy to have a module that can be built on all systems under test, isn't auto-loaded at boot, and has no device or similar dependencies. This creates the "test_module.ko" module for that purpose, which only reports its load and unload to printk.
