ioremap_pud_range() and ioremap_pmd_range() are changed to create huge I/O
mappings when their capability is enabled, and a request meets required
conditions -- both virtual & physical addresses are aligned by their huge
page size, and a requested range fufills their huge page size. When
pud_set_huge() or pmd_set_huge() returns zero, i.e. no-operation is
performed, the code simply falls back to the next level.
The changes are only enabled when CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined on
the architecture.

Add ioremap_pud_enabled() and ioremap_pmd_enabled(), which return 1 when
I/O mappings with pud/pmd are enabled on the kernel.
ioremap_huge_init() calls arch_ioremap_pud_supported() and
arch_ioremap_pmd_supported() to initialize the capabilities at boot-time.
A new kernel option "nohugeiomap" is also added, so that user can disable
the huge I/O map capabilities when necessary.

The current string_get_size() overflows when the device size goes over
2^64 bytes because the string helper routine computes the suffix from
the size in bytes. However, the entirety of Linux thinks in terms of
blocks, not bytes, so this will artificially induce an overflow on very
large devices. Fix this by making the function string_get_size() take
blocks and the block size instead of bytes. This should allow us to
keep working until the current SCSI standard overflows.
Also fix virtio_blk and mmc (both of which were also artificially
multiplying by the block size to pass a byte side to string_get_size()).
The mathematics of this is pretty simple: we're taking a product of
size in blocks (S) and block size (B) and trying to re-express this in
exponential form: S*B = R*N^E (where N, the exponent is either 1000 or
1024) and R < N. Mathematically, S = RS*N^ES and B=RB*N^EB, so if RS*RB
< N it's easy to see that S*B = RS*RB*N^(ES+EB). However, if RS*BS > N,
we can see that this can be re-expressed as RS*BS = R*N (where R =
RS*BS/N < N) so the whole exponent becomes R*N^(ES+EB+1)

Linux 3.19 commit 69c953c ("lib/lcm.c: lcm(n,0)=lcm(0,n) is 0, not n")
caused blk_stack_limits() to not properly stack queue_limits for stacked
devices (e.g. DM).
Fix this regression by establishing lcm_not_zero() and switching
blk_stack_limits() over to using it.
DM uses blk_set_stacking_limits() to establish the initial top-level
queue_limits that are then built up based on underlying devices' limits
using blk_stack_limits(). In the case of optimal_io_size (io_opt)
blk_set_stacking_limits() establishes a default value of 0. With commit
69c953c, lcm(0, n) is no longer n, which compromises proper stacking of
the underlying devices' io_opt.

iovec-backed iov_iter instances are assumed to satisfy several properties:
* no more than UIO_MAXIOV elements in iovec array
* total size of all ranges is no more than MAX_RW_COUNT
* all ranges pass access_ok().
The problem is, invariants of data structures should be established in the
primitives creating those data structures, not in the code using those
primitives. And iov_iter_init() violates that principle. For a while we
managed to get away with that, but once the use of iov_iter started to
spread, it didn't take long for shit to hit the fan - missed check in
sys_sendto() had introduced a roothole.
We _do_ have primitives for importing and validating iovecs (both native and
compat ones) and those primitives are almost always followed by shoving the
resulting iovec into iov_iter. Life would be considerably simpler (and safer)
if we combined those primitives with initializing iov_iter.
That gives us two new primitives - import_iovec() and compat_import_iovec().
Calling conventions:
iovec = iov_array;
err = import_iovec(direction, uvec, nr_segs,
ARRAY_SIZE(iov_array), &iovec,
&iter);
imports user vector into kernel space (into iov_array if it fits, allocated
if it doesn't fit or if iovec was NULL), validates it and sets iter up to
refer to it. On success 0 is returned and allocated kernel copy (or NULL
if the array had fit into caller-supplied one) is returned via iovec.
On failure all allocations are undone and -E... is returned. If the total
size of ranges exceeds MAX_RW_COUNT, the excess is silently truncated.
compat_import_iovec() expects uvec to be a pointer to user array of compat_iovec;
otherwise it's identical to import_iovec().
Finally, import_single_range() sets iov_iter backed by single-element iovec
covering a user-supplied range -
err = import_single_range(direction, address, size, iovec, &iter);
does validation and sets iter up. Again, size in excess of MAX_RW_COUNT gets
silently truncated.
Next commits will be switching the things up to use of those and reducing
the amount of iov_iter_init() instances.

This patch adds the missing bits to allow multiple rehashes. The
read-side as well as remove already handle this correctly. So it's
only the rehasher and insertion that need modification to handle
this.
Note that this patch doesn't actually enable it so for now rehashing
is still only performed by the worker thread.
This patch also disables the explicit expand/shrink interface because
the table is meant to expand and shrink automatically, and continuing
to export these interfaces unnecessarily complicates the life of the
rehasher since the rehash process is now composed of two parts.

set it to jhash. Furthermore, if the key length is a multiple

This patch deals with the complaint that we make indirect function
calls on the fast paths unnecessarily in rhashtable. We resolve
it by moving the fast paths into inline functions that take struct
rhashtable_param (which obviously must be the same set of parameters
supplied to rhashtable_init) as an argument.
The only remaining indirect call is to obj_hashfn (or key_hashfn it
obj_hashfn is unset) on the rehash as well as the insert-during-
rehash slow path.
This patch also extends the support of vairable-length keys to
include those where the key is fixed but scattered in the object.
For example, in netlink we want to key off the namespace and the
portid but they're not next to each other.
This patch does this by directly using the object hash function
as the indicator of whether the key is accessible or not. It
also adds a new function obj_cmpfn to compare a key against an
object. This means that the caller no longer needs to supply
explicit compare functions.
All this is done in a backwards compatible manner so no existing
users are affected until they convert to the new interface.

The commit 9d901bc051 ("rhashtable:
Free bucket tables asynchronously after rehash") causes gratuitous
failures in rhashtable_remove.
The reason is that it inadvertently introduced multiple rehashing
from the perspective of readers. IOW it is now possible to see
more than two tables during a single RCU critical section.
Fortunately the other reader rhashtable_lookup already deals with
this correctly thanks to c4db8848af
("rhashtable: rhashtable: Move future_tbl into struct bucket_table")
so only rhashtable_remove is broken by this change.
This patch fixes this by looping over every table from the first
one to the last or until we find the element that we were trying
to delete.
Incidentally the simple test for detecting rehashing to prevent
starting another shrinking no longer works. Since it isn't needed
anyway (the work queue and the mutex serves as a natural barrier
to unnecessary rehashes) I've simply killed the test.

Previously whenever the walker encountered a resize it simply
snaps back to the beginning and starts again. However, this only
works if the rehash started and completed while the walker was
idle.
If the walker attempts to restart while the rehash is still ongoing,
we may miss objects that we shouldn't have.
This patch fixes this by making the walker walk the old table
followed by the new table just like all other readers. If a
rehash is detected we will still signal our caller of the fact
so they can prepare for duplicates but we will simply continue
the walk onto the new table after the old one is finished either
by us or by the rehasher.

Recently there's been requests for better sanity
checking in the time code, so that it's more clear
when something is going wrong, since timekeeping issues
could manifest in a large number of strange ways in
various subsystems.
Thus, this patch adds some extra infrastructure to
add a check to update_wall_time() to print two new
warnings:
1) if we see the call delayed beyond the 'max_cycles'
overflow point,
2) or if we see the call delayed beyond the clocksource's
'max_idle_ns' value, which is currently 50% of the
overflow point.
This extra infrastructure is conditional on
a new CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING option, also
added in this patch - default off.
Tested this a bit by halting qemu for specified
lengths of time to trigger the warnings.

Commit c0c09bfdc4 ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for worker
queue") changed ht->shift to be atomic, which is actually unnecessary.
Instead of leaving the current shift in the core rhashtable structure,
it can be cached inside the individual bucket tables.
There, it will only be initialized once during a new table allocation
in the shrink/expansion slow path, and from then onward it stays immutable
for the rest of the bucket table liftime.
That allows shift to be non-atomic. The patch also moves hash_rnd
management into the table setup. The rhashtable structure now consumes
3 instead of 4 cachelines.

Grace-period initialization normally proceeds quite quickly, so
that it is very difficult to reproduce races against grace-period
initialization. This commit therefore allows grace-period
initialization to be artificially slowed down, increasing
race-reproduction probability. A pair of new Kconfig parameters are
provided, CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT to enable the slowdowns, and
CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY to specify the number of jiffies
of slowdown to apply. A boot-time parameter named rcutree.gp_init_delay
allows boot-time delay to be specified. By default, no delay will be
applied even if CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT is set.

seq_buf: Fix seq_buf_bprintf() truncation
seq_buf: Fix seq_buf_vprintf() truncation
In seq_buf_bprintf(), bstr_printf() is used to copy the format into the
buffer remaining in the seq_buf structure. The return of bstr_printf()
is the amount of characters written to the buffer excluding the '\0',
unless the line was truncated!
If the line copied does not fit, it is truncated, and a '\0' is added
to the end of the buffer. But in this case, '\0' is included in the length
of the line written. To know if the buffer had overflowed, the return
length will be the same or greater than the length of the buffer passed in.
The check in seq_buf_bprintf() only checked if the length returned from
bstr_printf() would fit in the buffer, as the seq_buf_bprintf() is only
to be an all or nothing command. It either writes all the string into
the seq_buf, or none of it. If the string is truncated, the pointers
inside the seq_buf must be reset to what they were when the function was
called. This is not the case. On overflow, it copies only part of the string.
The fix is to change the overflow check to see if the length returned from
bstr_printf() is less than the length remaining in the seq_buf buffer, and not
if it is less than or equal to as it currently does. Then seq_buf_bprintf()
will know if the write from bstr_printf() was truncated or not.

In seq_buf_vprintf(), vsnprintf() is used to copy the format into the
buffer remaining in the seq_buf structure. The return of vsnprintf()
is the amount of characters written to the buffer excluding the '\0',
unless the line was truncated!
If the line copied does not fit, it is truncated, and a '\0' is added
to the end of the buffer. But in this case, '\0' is included in the length
of the line written. To know if the buffer had overflowed, the return
length will be the same as the length of the buffer passed in.
The check in seq_buf_vprintf() only checked if the length returned from
vsnprintf() would fit in the buffer, as the seq_buf_vprintf() is only
to be an all or nothing command. It either writes all the string into
the seq_buf, or none of it. If the string is truncated, the pointers
inside the seq_buf must be reset to what they were when the function was
called. This is not the case. On overflow, it copies only part of the string.
The fix is to change the overflow check to see if the length returned from
vsnprintf() is less than the length remaining in the seq_buf buffer, and not
if it is less than or equal to as it currently does. Then seq_buf_vprintf()
will know if the write from vsnpritnf() was truncated or not.

Currently, all real users of rhashtable default their grow and shrink
decision functions to rht_grow_above_75() and rht_shrink_below_30(),
so that there's currently no need to have this explicitly selectable.
It can/should be generic and private inside rhashtable until a real
use case pops up. Since we can make this private, we'll save us this
additional indirection layer and can improve insertion/deletion time
as well.

While commit c0c09bfdc4 ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for
worker queue") rightfully moved part of the decision making of
whether we should expand or shrink from the expand/shrink functions
themselves into insert/delete functions in order to avoid unnecessary
worker wake-ups, it however introduced a regression by doing so.
Before that change, if no max_shift was specified (= 0) on rhashtable
initialization, rhashtable_expand() would just grow unconditionally
and lets the available memory be the limiting factor. After that
change, if no max_shift was specified, there would be _no_ expansion
step at all.
Given that netlink and tipc have a max_shift specified, it was not
visible there, but Josh Hunt reported that if nft that starts out
with a default element hint of 3 if not otherwise provided, would
slow i.e. inserts down trememdously as it cannot grow larger to
relax table occupancy.
Given that the test case verifies shrinks/expands manually, we also
must remove pointer to the helper functions to explicitly avoid
parallel resizing on insertions/deletions. test_bucket_stats() and
test_rht_lookup() could also be wrapped around rhashtable mutex to
explicitly synchronize a walk from resizing, but I think that defeats
the actual test case which intended to have explicit test steps,
i.e. 1) inserts, 2) expands, 3) shrinks, 4) deletions, with object
verification after each stage.

With the new standardized functions, we can replace all
ACCESS_ONCE() calls across relevant locking - this includes
lockref and seqlock while at it.
ACCESS_ONCE() does not work reliably on non-scalar types.
For example gcc 4.6 and 4.7 might remove the volatile tag
for such accesses during the SRA (scalar replacement of
aggregates) step:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145
Update the new calls regardless of if it is a scalar type,
this is cleaner than having three alternatives.

Restore pre 54c5b7d311 behaviour and only probe for expansions on inserts
and shrinks on deletes. Currently, it will happen that on initial inserts
into a sparse hash table, we may i.e. shrink it first simply because it's
not fully populated yet, only to later realize that we need to grow again.
This however is counter intuitive, e.g. an initial default size of 64
elements is already small enough, and in case an elements size hint is given
to the hash table by a user, we should avoid unnecessary expansion steps,
so a shrink is clearly unintended here.

With object runtime debugging enabled, the rhashtable test suite
will rightfully throw a warning "ODEBUG: object is on stack, but
not annotated" from rhashtable_init().
This is because run_work is (correctly) being initialized via
INIT_WORK(), and not annotated by INIT_WORK_ONSTACK(). Meaning,
rhashtable_init() is okay as is, we just need to move ht e.g.,
into global scope.
It never triggered anything, since test_rhashtable is rather a
controlled environment and effectively runs to completion, so
that stack memory is not vanishing underneath us, we shouldn't
confuse any testers with it though.

This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python
helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb.
The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when
opening <objfile>. Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the
main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux.
The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb
commands and functions. To avoid polluting the source directory with
compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory.
Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we
depend on gdb >= 7.2.
This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.

This feature let us to detect accesses out of bounds of global variables.
This will work as for globals in kernel image, so for globals in modules.
Currently this won't work for symbols in user-specified sections (e.g.
__init, __read_mostly, ...)
The idea of this is simple. Compiler increases each global variable by
redzone size and add constructors invoking __asan_register_globals()
function. Information about global variable (address, size, size with
redzone ...) passed to __asan_register_globals() so we could poison
variable's redzone.
This patch also forces module_alloc() to return 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned
address making shadow memory handling (
kasan_module_alloc()/kasan_module_free() ) more simple. Such alignment
guarantees that each shadow page backing modules address space correspond
to only one module_alloc() allocation.

With this patch kasan will be able to catch bugs in memory allocated by
slub. Initially all objects in newly allocated slab page, marked as
redzone. Later, when allocation of slub object happens, requested by
caller number of bytes marked as accessible, and the rest of the object
(including slub's metadata) marked as redzone (inaccessible).
We also mark object as accessible if ksize was called for this object.
There is some places in kernel where ksize function is called to inquire
size of really allocated area. Such callers could validly access whole
allocated memory, so it should be marked as accessible.
Code in slub.c and slab_common.c files could validly access to object's
metadata, so instrumentation for this files are disabled.

Kernel Address sanitizer (KASan) is a dynamic memory error detector. It
provides fast and comprehensive solution for finding use-after-free and
out-of-bounds bugs.
KASAN uses compile-time instrumentation for checking every memory access,
therefore GCC > v4.9.2 required. v4.9.2 almost works, but has issues with
putting symbol aliases into the wrong section, which breaks kasan
instrumentation of globals.
This patch only adds infrastructure for kernel address sanitizer. It's
not available for use yet. The idea and some code was borrowed from [1].
Basic idea:
The main idea of KASAN is to use shadow memory to record whether each byte
of memory is safe to access or not, and use compiler's instrumentation to
check the shadow memory on each memory access.
Address sanitizer uses 1/8 of the memory addressable in kernel for shadow
memory and uses direct mapping with a scale and offset to translate a
memory address to its corresponding shadow address.
Here is function to translate address to corresponding shadow address:
unsigned long kasan_mem_to_shadow(unsigned long addr)
{
return (addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET;
}
where KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT = 3.
So for every 8 bytes there is one corresponding byte of shadow memory.
The following encoding used for each shadow byte: 0 means that all 8 bytes
of the corresponding memory region are valid for access; k (1 <= k <= 7)
means that the first k bytes are valid for access, and other (8 - k) bytes
are not; Any negative value indicates that the entire 8-bytes are
inaccessible. Different negative values used to distinguish between
different kinds of inaccessible memory (redzones, freed memory) (see
mm/kasan/kasan.h).
To be able to detect accesses to bad memory we need a special compiler.
Such compiler inserts a specific function calls (__asan_load*(addr),
__asan_store*(addr)) before each memory access of size 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16.
These functions check whether memory region is valid to access or not by
checking corresponding shadow memory. If access is not valid an error
printed.
Historical background of the address sanitizer from Dmitry Vyukov:
"We've developed the set of tools, AddressSanitizer (Asan),
ThreadSanitizer and MemorySanitizer, for user space. We actively use
them for testing inside of Google (continuous testing, fuzzing,
running prod services). To date the tools have found more than 10'000
scary bugs in Chromium, Google internal codebase and various
open-source projects (Firefox, OpenSSL, gcc, clang, ffmpeg, MySQL and
lots of others): [2] [3] [4].
The tools are part of both gcc and clang compilers.
We have not yet done massive testing under the Kernel AddressSanitizer
(it's kind of chicken and egg problem, you need it to be upstream to
start applying it extensively). To date it has found about 50 bugs.
Bugs that we've found in upstream kernel are listed in [5].
We've also found ~20 bugs in out internal version of the kernel. Also
people from Samsung and Oracle have found some.
[...]
As others noted, the main feature of AddressSanitizer is its
performance due to inline compiler instrumentation and simple linear
shadow memory. User-space Asan has ~2x slowdown on computational
programs and ~2x memory consumption increase. Taking into account that
kernel usually consumes only small fraction of CPU and memory when
running real user-space programs, I would expect that kernel Asan will
have ~10-30% slowdown and similar memory consumption increase (when we
finish all tuning).
I agree that Asan can well replace kmemcheck. We have plans to start
working on Kernel MemorySanitizer that finds uses of unitialized
memory. Asan+Msan will provide feature-parity with kmemcheck. As
others noted, Asan will unlikely replace debug slab and pagealloc that
can be enabled at runtime. Asan uses compiler instrumentation, so even
if it is disabled, it still incurs visible overheads.
Asan technology is easily portable to other architectures. Compiler
instrumentation is fully portable. Runtime has some arch-dependent
parts like shadow mapping and atomic operation interception. They are
relatively easy to port."
Comparison with other debugging features:
========================================
KMEMCHECK:
- KASan can do almost everything that kmemcheck can. KASan uses
compile-time instrumentation, which makes it significantly faster than
kmemcheck. The only advantage of kmemcheck over KASan is detection of
uninitialized memory reads.
Some brief performance testing showed that kasan could be
x500-x600 times faster than kmemcheck:
$ netperf -l 30
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 0 AF_INET

bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec
no debug: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 41624.72
kasan inline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 12870.54
kasan outline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 10586.39
kmemcheck: 87380 16384 16384 30.03 20.23
- Also kmemcheck couldn't work on several CPUs. It always sets
number of CPUs to 1. KASan doesn't have such limitation.
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC:
- KASan is slower than DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, but KASan works on sub-page
granularity level, so it able to find more bugs.
SLUB_DEBUG (poisoning, redzones):
- SLUB_DEBUG has lower overhead than KASan.
- SLUB_DEBUG in most cases are not able to detect bad reads,
KASan able to detect both reads and writes.
- In some cases (e.g. redzone overwritten) SLUB_DEBUG detect
bugs only on allocation/freeing of object. KASan catch
bugs right before it will happen, so we always know exact
place of first bad read/write.

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().

Commit 8f243af42a ("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.

If off >= lim (which requires shift >= nbits), k is initialized with a

guaranteed to be non-negative, so the fact that it is promoted to unsigned

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.

loop is never executed.

Memory allocation only happens in the self test, just as random numbers
are only used there. So move the inclusion of slab.h inside the
CONFIG_TEST_LIST_SORT.
We don't need module.h and all of the stuff it carries with it, so replace
with export.h and compiler.h. Unfortunately, the ARRAY_SIZE macro from
kernel.h requires the user to ensure bug.h is also included (for
BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO, used by __must_be_array). We used to get that through
some maze of nested includes, but just include it explicitly.
linux/string.h is then only included implicitly through
kernel.h->printk.h->dynamic_debug.h, but only if !CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, so
just include it explicitly (for memset).
objdump -d says the generated code is the same, and wc -l says that
lib/.list_sort.o.cmd went from 579 to 165 lines.

This patch makes hexdump return the number of bytes placed in the buffer
excluding trailing NUL. In the case of overflow it returns the desired
amount of bytes to produce the entire dump. Thus, it mimics snprintf().
This will be useful for users that would like to repeat with a bigger

In the current implementation we have a floating ascii column in the tail
of the dump.
For example, for row size equal to 16 the ascii column as in following
table
group size \ length 8 12 16
1 50 50 50
2 22 32 42
4 20 29 38
8 19 - 36
This patch makes it the same independently of amount of bytes dumped.
The change is safe since all current users, which use ASCII part of the
dump, rely on the group size equal to 1. The patch doesn't change
behaviour for such group size (see the table above).

The ordinal of a set bit is simply the number of set bits before it;
counting those doesn't need to be done one bit at a time. While at it,
update the parameters to unsigned int.
It is not completely unthinkable that gcc would see pos as compile-time
constant 0 in one of the uses of bitmap_pos_to_ord. Since the static
inline frontend bitmap_weight doesn't handle nbits==0 correctly (it would
behave exactly as if nbits==BITS_PER_LONG), use __bitmap_weight.
Alternatively, the last line could be spelled bitmap_weight(buf, pos+1)-1,
but this is simpler.

If and when we get u128, string_get_size needs updating anyway (and ISO

Also there's no need to include and test for the NULL sentinel; once we

The remove logic properly searched the remaining chain for a matching
entry with an identical hash but it did this while searching from both
the old and new table. Instead in order to not leave stale references
behind we need to:
1. When growing and searching from the new table:
Search remaining chain for entry with same hash to avoid having
the new table directly point to a entry with a different hash.
2. When shrinking and searching from the old table:
Check if the element after the removed would create a cross
reference and avoid it if so.
These bugs were present from the beginning in nft_hash.
Also, both insert functions calculated the hash based on the mask of
the new table. This worked while growing. Wwhile shrinking, the mask
of the inew table is smaller than the mask of the old table. This lead
to a bit not being taken into account when selecting the bucket lock
and thus caused the wrong bucket to be locked eventually.

During a resize, when two buckets in the larger table map to
a single bucket in the smaller table and the new table has already
been (partially) linked to the old table. Removal of an element
may result the bucket in the larger table to point to entries
which all hash to a different value than the bucket index. Thus
causing two buckets to point to the same sub chain after unzipping.
This is not illegal *during* the resize phase but after it has
completed.
Keep the old table around until all of the unzipping is done to
allow the removal code to only search for matching hashed entries
during this special period.

rhashtable currently allows to use a bucket lock per bucket. This
requires multiple levels of complicated nested locking because when
resizing, a single bucket of the smaller table will map to two
buckets in the larger table. So far rhashtable has explicitly locked
both buckets in the larger table.
By excluding the highest bit of the hash from the bucket lock map and
thus only allowing locks to buckets in a ratio of 1:2, the locking
can be simplified a lot without losing the benefits of multiple locks.
Larger tables which benefit from multiple locks will not have a single
lock per bucket anyway.

The value computed by key_hashfn() is used by rhashtable_lookup_compare()
to traverse both tables during a resize. key_hashfn() must therefore

When we put our declared work task in the global workqueue with
schedule_delayed_work(), its delay parameter is always zero.
Therefore, we should define a regular work in rhashtable structure
instead of a delayed work.
By the way, we add a condition to check whether resizing functions
are NULL before cancelling the work, avoiding to cancel an
uninitialized work.
Lastly, while we wait for all work items we submitted before to run
to completion with cancel_delayed_work(), ht->mutex has been taken in
rhashtable_destroy(). Moreover, cancel_delayed_work() doesn't return
until all work items are accomplished, and when work items are
scheduled, the work's function - rht_deferred_worker() will be called.
However, as rht_deferred_worker() also needs to acquire the lock,
deadlock might happen at the moment as the lock is already held before.
So if the cancel work function is moved out of the lock covered scope,
this will avoid the deadlock.

In order to allow for wider usage of rhashtable, use a special nulls
marker to terminate each chain. The reason for not using the existing
nulls_list is that the prev pointer usage would not be valid as entries
can be linked in two different buckets at the same time.
The 4 nulls base bits can be set through the rhashtable_params structure
like this:
struct rhashtable_params params = {
[...]
.nulls_base = (1U << RHT_BASE_SHIFT),
};
This reduces the hash length from 32 bits to 27 bits.

Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number
of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of
the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries
which do not share a lock.
The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which
allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and
deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly
while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped.
Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read
access is RCU protected.
In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated
is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process
starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables.
The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and
initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization
of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the
new table is in use.
The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket
traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see
any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that
point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches
both tables if needed.
Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems
to become an atomic counter.

The removal function of nft_hash currently stores a reference to the
previous element during lookup which is used to optimize removal later
on. This was possible because a lock is held throughout calling
rhashtable_lookup() and rhashtable_remove().
With the introdution of deferred table resizing in parallel to lookups
and insertions, the nftables lock will no longer synchronize all
table mutations and the stored pprev may become invalid.
Removing this optimization makes removal slightly more expensive on
average but allows taking the resize cost out of the insert and
remove path.

Also, script fixed for new git version.

Later we check "origPtr" again before using it as an offset so I don't

This patchset adds execveat(2) for x86, and is derived from Meredydd
Luff's patch from Sept 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/528).
The primary aim of adding an execveat syscall is to allow an
implementation of fexecve(3) that does not rely on the /proc filesystem,
at least for executables (rather than scripts). The current glibc version
of fexecve(3) is implemented via /proc, which causes problems in sandboxed
or otherwise restricted environments.
Given the desire for a /proc-free fexecve() implementation, HPA suggested
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/556) that an execveat(2) syscall would be
an appropriate generalization.
Also, having a new syscall means that it can take a flags argument without
back-compatibility concerns. The current implementation just defines the
AT_EMPTY_PATH and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flags, but other flags could be
added in future -- for example, flags for new namespaces (as suggested at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/474).
Related history:
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/123 is an example of someone
realizing that fexecve() is likely to fail in a chroot environment.
- http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514043 covered
documenting the /proc requirement of fexecve(3) in its manpage, to
"prevent other people from wasting their time".
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241609 described a
problem where a process that did setuid() could not fexecve()
because it no longer had access to /proc/self/fd; this has since
been fixed.
This patch (of 4):
Add a new execveat(2) system call. execveat() is to execve() as openat()
is to open(): it takes a file descriptor that refers to a directory, and
resolves the filename relative to that.
In addition, if the filename is empty and AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified,
execveat() executes the file to which the file descriptor refers. This
replicates the functionality of fexecve(), which is a system call in other
UNIXen, but in Linux glibc it depends on opening "/proc/self/fd/<fd>" (and
so relies on /proc being mounted).
The filename fed to the executed program as argv[0] (or the name of the
script fed to a script interpreter) will be of the form "/dev/fd/<fd>"
(for an empty filename) or "/dev/fd/<fd>/<filename>", effectively
reflecting how the executable was found. This does however mean that
execution of a script in a /proc-less environment won't work; also, script
execution via an O_CLOEXEC file descriptor fails (as the file will not be
accessible after exec).
Based on patches by Meredydd Luff.

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It
is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.
This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When
allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
analyze it from this stored information.
In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
without considerable memory waste.
Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the
trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.
Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For
example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
using this interface.
I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

clean ups from that branch.
This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context.
The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI
were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could
deadlock from the printk() internal locks. This has been seen in practice.
With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several
iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be
accepted into mainline.
Here's what is contained in this patch set:
o Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor
to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()"
formatted strings into it. The generic version was pulled out of
the trace_seq() code that was made specifically for tracing.
o The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code. I have
a patch (not included for 3.19) that converts the seq_file.c code
over to use seq_buf.c like the trace_seq.c code does. This was done
to make sure that seq_buf.c is compatible with seq_file.c. I may
try to get that patch in for 3.20.
o The seq_buf.c file was moved to lib/ to remove it from being dependent
on CONFIG_TRACING.
o The printk() was updated to allow for a per_cpu "override" of
the internal calls. That is, instead of writing to the console, a call
to printk() may do something else. This made it easier to allow the
NMI to change what printk() does in order to call dump_stack() without
needing to update that code as well.
o Finally, the dump_stack from all CPUs via NMI code was converted to
use the seq_buf code. The caller to trigger the NMI code would wait
till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the seq_buf
data to the console safely from a non NMI context.

dma_debug_init() is called by architecture specific code at different
levels, but typically as a fs_initcall due to the debugfs initialization.
Some platforms may have early callers of the DMA-API, running prior to the
fs_initcall() level, which is not much of an issue unless
CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is set. When the DMA-API debugging facilities are
turned on a caller will go through:
debug_dma_map_{single,page}
-> dma_mapping_error (inline function usually)
-> debug_dma_mapping_error
-> get_hash_bucket
Calling get_hash_bucket() returns a valid hash value since we hash on high
bits of the dma_addr cookie, but we will grab an unitialized spinlock,
which typically won't crash but produce a warning, the real crash will
however happen during the bucket list traversal because the list has not
been initialized yet.
An obvious solution is of course to move some of the offenders to run
after the fs_initcall level, but since this might not always be an option,
we add a flag "dma_debug_initialized" which is set to false by default,
and set to true once dma_debug_init() has had a chance to run.
The dma_debug_disabled() helper function previously introduced just needs
to check for dma_debug_initialized to allow the caller to proceed or not.

This patch effectively reverts commit 500f808726 ("net: ovs: use CRC32
accelerated flow hash if available"), and other remaining arch_fast_hash()
users such as from nfsd via commit 6282cd5655 ("NFSD: Don't hand out
delegations for 30 seconds after recalling them.") where it has been used
as a hash function for bloom filtering.
While we think that these users are actually not much of concern, it has
been requested to remove the arch_fast_hash() library bits that arose
from [1] entirely as per recent discussion [2]. The main argument is that
using it as a hash may introduce bias due to its linearity (see avalanche
criterion) and thus makes it less clear (though we tried to document that)
when this security/performance trade-off is actually acceptable for a
general purpose library function.
Lets therefore avoid any further confusion on this matter and remove it to
prevent any future accidental misuse of it. For the time being, this is
going to make hashing of flow keys a bit more expensive in the ovs case,
but future work could reevaluate a different hashing discipline.

The seq_buf functions are rather useful outside of tracing. Instead
of having it be dependent on CONFIG_TRACING, move the code into lib/
and allow other users to have access to it even when tracing is not
configured.
The seq_buf utility is similar to the seq_file utility, but instead of
writing sending data back up to userland, it writes it into a buffer
defined at seq_buf_init(). This allows us to send a descriptor around
that writes printf() formatted strings into it that can be retrieved
later.
It is currently used by the tracing facility for such things like trace
events to convert its binary saved data in the ring buffer into an
ASCII human readable context to be displayed in /sys/kernel/debug/trace.
It can also be used for doing NMI prints safely from NMI context into
the seq_buf and retrieved later and dumped to printk() safely. Doing
printk() from an NMI context is dangerous because an NMI can preempt
a current printk() and deadlock on it.

This reverts commit e5a2c89995.
Commit e5a2c899 introduced an alternative_call, arch_fast_hash2,
that selects between __jhash2 and __intel_crc4_2_hash based on the
X86_FEATURE_XMM4_2.
Unfortunately, the alternative_call system does not appear to be
suitable for use with C functions, as register usage is not handled
properly for the called functions. The __jhash2 function in particular
clobbers registers that are not preserved when called via
alternative_call, resulting in a panic for direct callers of
arch_fast_hash2 on older CPUs lacking sse4_2. It is possible that
__intel_crc4_2_hash works merely by chance because it uses fewer
registers.

Gross <jesse@nicira.com>.

Reallocation is only required for shrinking and expanding and both rely
on a mutex for synchronization and callers of rhashtable_init() are in
non atomic context. Therefore, no reason to continue passing allocation
hints through the API.
Instead, use GFP_KERNEL and add __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_NORETRY to allow
for silent fall back to vzalloc() without the OOM killer jumping in as
pointed out by Eric Dumazet and Eric W. Biederman.

By default the arch_fast_hash hashing function pointers are initialized
to jhash(2). If during boot-up a CPU with SSE4.2 is detected they get
updated to the CRC32 ones. This dispatching scheme incurs a function
pointer lookup and indirect call for every hashing operation.
rhashtable as a user of arch_fast_hash e.g. stores pointers to hashing
functions in its structure, too, causing two indirect branches per
hashing operation.
Using alternative_call we can get away with one of those indirect branches.

zatimend has reported that in his environment (3.16/gcc4.8.3/corei7)
memset() calls which clear out sensitive data in extract_{buf,entropy,
entropy_user}() in random driver are being optimized away by gcc.
Add a helper memzero_explicit() (similarly as explicit_bzero() variants)
that can be used in such cases where a variable with sensitive data is
being cleared out in the end. Other use cases might also be in crypto
code. [ I have put this into lib/string.c though, as it's always built-in
and doesn't need any dependencies then. ]

them created custom implementation. The series contains clean up of
test suite, adding new call, and switching few users to use it via %*pE

The previous patch made strnicmp into a wrapper for strncasecmp.
This patch makes all in-tree users of strnicmp call strncasecmp
directly, while still making sure that the strnicmp symbol can be used
by out-of-tree modules. It should be considered a temporary hack until
all in-tree callers have been converted.

lib/string.c contains two functions, strnicmp and strncasecmp, which do
roughly the same thing, namely compare two strings case-insensitively up
to a given bound. They have slightly different implementations, but the
only important difference is that strncasecmp doesn't handle len==0
appropriately; it effectively becomes strcasecmp in that case. strnicmp
correctly says that two strings are always equal in their first 0
characters.
strncasecmp is the POSIX name for this functionality. So rename the
non-broken function to the standard name. To minimize the impact on the
rest of the kernel (and since both are exported to modules), make strnicmp
a wrapper for strncasecmp.

The "_MODULE" suffix is reserved for tristates compiled as loadable kernel
modules (LKM). The "TEST_MODULE" feature thereby violates this
convention. The feature is used to compile the lib/test_module.c kernel
module.
Sadly this convention is not made explicit, but the Kconfig code documents
it. The following code (./scripts/kconfig/confdata.c) is used to generate
the autoconf.h header file during the build process. When a feature is
selected as a kernel module ('m'), it is suffixed with "_MODULE" to
indicate it.
switch (*value) {
case 'n':
break;
case 'm':
suffix = "_MODULE";
/* fall through */
This causes problems for static code analysis, which assumes a consistent
use of the "_MODULE" suffix.
This patch renames the feature and its reference in a Makefile to
"TEST_LKM", which still expresses the test of a LKM.

The prio_heap code is unused since commit 889ed9ceaa ("cgroup: remove

kernel size which can be done via introducing CONFIG_PRIO_HEAD or by
removing the code.
We can simply recover the code from git when needed, so it would be
better to remove it IMO.

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull
request w/ resolutions once other branches are merged"

One of the more common algorithms used for allocation is to align the
start address of the allocation to the order of size requested. Add this
as an algorithm option for genalloc.

This font is suitable for framebuffer consoles on devices with a
320x240 screen, to get a reasonable number of characters (53x24) that
are still at a readable size.
The font is derived from the existing 6x11 font, but gets 3 extra
lines without sacrificing readability. Also I redesigned a some glyhps
so they are more distinct and better fill the available space.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.
6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.
7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.
11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.
12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.
13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

More fun with the LZO compression code. Here's some patches that
properly document what the logic is, and fix up all of the previously
reported issues against the LZO code.
This has been in linux-next for a while with no issues.

Here's the driver core patches for 3.18-rc1. Just a few small things,
and the addition of a new interface to dump firmware "core dumps" to
userspace through sysfs that the wireless and graphic drivers want to
use.
