strscpy: zero any trailing garbage bytes in the destination
It's possible that the destination can be shadowed in userspace (as, for example, the perf buffers are now). So we should take care not to leak data that could be inspected by userspace. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com> |

Merge branch 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile
Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures |

lib: fix data race in rhashtable_rehash_one
rhashtable_rehash_one() uses complex logic to update entry->next field, after INIT_RHT_NULLS_HEAD and NULLS_MARKER expansion: entry->next = 1 | ((base + off) << 1) This can be compiled along the lines of: entry->next = base + off entry->next <<= 1 entry->next |= 1 Which will break concurrent readers. NULLS value recomputation is not needed here, so just remove the complex logic. The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).

lib/iommu-common.c: do not try to deref a null iommu->lazy_flush() pointer when n < pool->hint
The check for invoking iommu->lazy_flush() from iommu_tbl_range_alloc() has to be refactored so that we only call ->lazy_flush() if it is non-null. I had a sparc kernel that was crashing when I was trying to process some very large perf.data files- the crash happens when the scsi driver calls into dma_4v_map_sg and thus the iommu_tbl_range_alloc().

lib/string_helpers.c: fix infinite loop in string_get_size()
Some string_get_size() calls (e.g.: string_get_size(1, 512, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...) string_get_size(15, 64, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...) ) result in an infinite loop. The problem is that if size is equal to divisor[units]/blk_size and is smaller than divisor[units] we'll end up with size == 0 when we start doing sf_cap calculations: For string_get_size(1, 512, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...) case: ... remainder = do_div(size, divisor[units]); -> size is 0, remainder is 1 remainder *= blk_size; -> remainder is 512 ... size *= blk_size; -> size is still 0 size += remainder / divisor[units]; -> size is still 0 The caller causing the issue is sd_read_capacity(), the problem was noticed on Hyper-V, such weird size was reported by host when scanning collides with device removal. This is probably a separate issue worth fixing, this patch is intended to prevent the library routine from infinite looping.

the new buffer is at 0x46fe000000ULL, decompressor_gzip is using
0xffffffb901ffffff as out_len. gunzip in lib/zlib_inflate/inflate.c cap
that len to 0x01ffffff and decompress fails later.
We could hit this problem with crashkernel booting that uses kexec loading
kernel above 4GiB.
We have decompress_* support:
1. inbuf[]/outbuf[] for kernel preboot.
2. inbuf[]/flush() for initramfs
3. fill()/flush() for initrd.
This bug only affect kernel preboot path that use outbuf[].
Add __decompress and take real out_buf_len for gunzip instead of guessing
wrong buf size.

lib/test_kasan.c: make kmalloc_oob_krealloc_less more correctly
In kmalloc_oob_krealloc_less, I think it is better to test the size2 boundary. If we do not call krealloc, the access of position size1 will still cause out-of-bounds and access of position size2 does not. After call krealloc, the access of position size2 cause out-of-bounds. So using size2 is more correct.

lib/bitmap.c: bitmap_parselist can accept string with whitespaces on head or tail
In __bitmap_parselist we can accept whitespaces on head or tail during
every parsing procedure. If input has valid ranges, there is no reason to
reject the user.
For example, bitmap_parselist(" 1-3, 5, ", &mask, nmaskbits). After
separating the string, we get " 1-3", " 5", and " ". It's possible and
reasonable to accept such string as long as the parsing result is correct.

string: provide strscpy()
The strscpy() API is intended to be used instead of strlcpy(), and instead of most uses of strncpy(). - Unlike strlcpy(), it doesn't read from memory beyond (src + size). - Unlike strlcpy() or strncpy(), the API provides an easy way to check for destination buffer overflow: an -E2BIG error return value. - The provided implementation is robust in the face of the source buffer being asynchronously changed during the copy, unlike the current implementation of strlcpy(). - Unlike strncpy(), the destination buffer will be NUL-terminated if the string in the source buffer is too long. - Also unlike strncpy(), the destination buffer will not be updated beyond the NUL termination, avoiding strncpy's behavior of zeroing the entire tail end of the destination buffer. (A memset() after the strscpy() can be used if this behavior is desired.) - The implementation should be reasonably performant on all platforms since it uses the asm/word-at-a-time.h API rather than simple byte copy. Kernel-to-kernel string copy is not considered to be performance critical in any case. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com> |

Currently when we print the total reserve memory it considers cma as part of reserve memory and do minus of totalcma_pages from reserved, which is wrong.

libnvdimm for 4.3:
1/ Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to
enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX
('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the
'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System
RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will
arrive in a later kernel.
2/ Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of
the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
3/ Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
4/ Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
5/ Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support
for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes.

Pull NMI backtrace update from Russell King: "These changes convert the x86 NMI handling to be a library implementation which other architectures can make use of. Thomas Gleixner has reviewed and tested these changes, and wishes me to send these rather than taking them through the tip tree. The final patch in the set adds an initial implementation using this infrastructure to ARM, even though it doesn't send the IPI at "NMI" level. Patches are in progress to add the ARM equivalent of NMI, but we still need the IRQ-level fallback for systems where the "NMI" isn't available due to secure firmware denying access to it" * 'nmi' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: ARM: add basic support for on-demand backtrace of other CPUs nmi: x86: convert to generic nmi handler nmi: create generic NMI backtrace implementation |

genalloc: add support of multiple gen_pools per device
This change fills devm_gen_pool_create()/gen_pool_get() "name" argument stub with contents and extends of_gen_pool_get() functionality on this basis. If there is no associated platform device with a device node passed to of_gen_pool_get(), the function attempts to get a label property or device node name (= repeats MTD OF partition standard) and seeks for a named gen_pool registered by device of the parent device node. The main idea of the change is to allow registration of independent gen_pools under the same umbrella device, say "partitions" on "storage device", the original functionality of one "partition" per "storage device" is untouched.

genalloc: add name arg to gen_pool_get() and devm_gen_pool_create()
This change modifies gen_pool_get() and devm_gen_pool_create() client interfaces adding one more argument "name" of a gen_pool object. Due to implementation gen_pool_get() is capable to retrieve only one gen_pool associated with a device even if multiple gen_pools are created, fortunately right at the moment it is sufficient for the clients, hence provide NULL as a valid argument on both producer devm_gen_pool_create() and consumer gen_pool_get() sides. Because only one created gen_pool per device is addressable, explicitly add a restriction to devm_gen_pool_create() to create only one gen_pool per device, this implies two possible error codes returned by the function, account it on client side (only misc/sram). This completes client side changes related to genalloc updates.

Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking and atomic updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes in this cycle are:
- Extend atomic primitives with coherent logic op primitives
(atomic_{or,and,xor}()) and deprecate the old partial APIs
(atomic_{set,clear}_mask())
The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across
architectures and with incomplete support. Now every architecture
supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Generic support for 'relaxed atomics':
- _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return()
- atomic_read_acquire()
- atomic_set_release()
This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon)
- Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs,
by introducing a new one:
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);
which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.
Then allow:
static_branch_likely()
static_branch_unlikely()
to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case. To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it
in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Static key self-tests (by Jason Baron)
- qrwlock optimizations (by Waiman Long)
- small futex enhancements (by Davidlohr Bueso)
- ... and misc other changes"

driver for Mediatek MT8173 chips.
ACPICA mostly updates its debug infrastructure and adds a number of
fixes and cleanups for a good measure.
The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is updated with new
DT bindings and support for them among other things.
We have a few updates of the generic power domains framework and a
reorganization of the ACPI device enumeration code and bus type
operations.
And a lot of fixes and cleanups all over.

nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB
This should result in a pretty sizeable performance gain for reads. For rough comparison I did some simple read testing using PMEM to compare reads of write combining (WC) mappings vs write-back (WB). This was done on a random lab machine. PMEM reads from a write combining mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=100000 100000+0 records in 100000+0 records out 409600000 bytes (410 MB) copied, 9.2855 s, 44.1 MB/s PMEM reads from a write-back mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=1000000 1000000+0 records in 1000000+0 records out 4096000000 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 3.44034 s, 1.2 GB/s To be able to safely support a write-back aperture I needed to add support for the "read flush" _DSM flag, as outlined in the DSM spec: http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf This flag tells the ND BLK driver that it needs to flush the cache lines associated with the aperture after the aperture is moved but before any new data is read. This ensures that any stale cache lines from the previous contents of the aperture will be discarded from the processor cache, and the new data will be read properly from the DIMM. We know that the cache lines are clean and will be discarded without any writeback because either a) the previous aperture operation was a read, and we never modified the contents of the aperture, or b) the previous aperture operation was a write and we must have written back the dirtied contents of the aperture to the DIMM before the I/O was completed. In order to add support for the "read flush" flag I needed to add a generic routine to invalidate cache lines, mmio_flush_range(). This is protected by the ARCH_HAS_MMIO_FLUSH Kconfig variable, and is currently only supported on x86.

PCI: Add pci_iomap_wc() variants
PCI BARs tell us whether prefetching is safe, but they don't say
anything about write combining (WC). WC changes ordering rules
and allows writes to be collapsed, so it's not safe in general
to use it on a prefetchable region.
Add pci_iomap_wc() and pci_iomap_wc_range() so drivers can take
advantage of write combining when they know it's safe.
On architectures that don't fully support WC, e.g., x86 without
PAT, drivers for legacy framebuffers may get some of the benefit
by using arch_phys_wc_add() in addition to pci_iomap_wc(). But
arch_phys_wc_add() is unreliable and should be avoided in
general. On x86, it uses MTRRs, which are limited in number and
size, so the results will vary based on driver loading order.
The goals of adding pci_iomap_wc() are to:
- Give drivers an architecture-independent way to use WC so they can stop
using interfaces like mtrr_add() (on x86, pci_iomap_wc() uses
PAT when available).
- Move toward using _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC, not _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC_MINUS,
on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see

lib: scatterlist: add sg splitting function
Sometimes a scatter-gather has to be split into several chunks, or sub scatter lists. This happens for example if a scatter list will be handled by multiple DMA channels, each one filling a part of it. A concrete example comes with the media V4L2 API, where the scatter list is allocated from userspace to hold an image, regardless of the knowledge of how many DMAs will fill it : - in a simple RGB565 case, one DMA will pump data from the camera ISP to memory - in the trickier YUV422 case, 3 DMAs will pump data from the camera ISP pipes, one for pipe Y, one for pipe U and one for pipe V For these cases, it is necessary to split the original scatter list into multiple scatter lists, which is the purpose of this patch. The guarantees that are required for this patch are : - the intersection of spans of any couple of resulting scatter lists is empty. - the union of spans of all resulting scatter lists is a subrange of the span of the original scatter list. - streaming DMA API operations (mapping, unmapping) should not happen both on both the resulting and the original scatter list. It's either the first or the later ones. - the caller is reponsible to call kfree() on the resulting scatterlists.

rhashtable-test: extend to test concurrency
After having tested insertion, lookup, table walk and removal, spawn a number of threads running operations on the same rhashtable. Each of them will: 1) insert it's own set of objects, 2) lookup every successfully inserted object and finally 3) remove objects in several rounds until all of them have been removed, making sure the remaining ones are still found after each round. This should put a good amount of load onto the system and due to synchronising thread startup via two semaphores also extensive concurrent table access. The default number of ten threads returned within half a second on my local VM with two cores. Running 200 threads took about four seconds. If slow systems suffer too much from this though, the default could be lowered or even set to zero so this extended test does not run at all by default.

scatterlist: allow limited chaining without ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN
There are a couple of uses of struct scatterlist that never go to the dma_map_sg() helper and thus don't care about ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN which indicates that we can map chained S/G list. The most important one is the crypto code, which currently has to open code a few helpers to always allow chaining. This patch removes a few #ifdef ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN statements so that we can switch the crypto code to these common helpers.
