Under normal circumstances nilfs_sync_fs() writes out the super block,
which causes a flush of the underlying block device. But this depends
on the THE_NILFS_SB_DIRTY flag, which is only set if the pointer to the
last segment crosses a segment boundary. So if only a small amount of
data is written before the call to nilfs_sync_fs(), no flush of the
block device occurs.
In the above case an additional call to blkdev_issue_flush() is needed.
To prevent unnecessary overhead, the new flag nilfs->ns_flushed_device
is introduced, which is cleared whenever new logs are written and set
whenever the block device is flushed. For convenience the function
nilfs_flush_device() is added, which contains the above logic.

Commit b5ada4600d ("drivers/rtc/rtc-cmos.c: fix compilation warning

Fix this by restricting the #ifdef to cmos_resume and restoring the old

gcc-4.9 found a potential condition under which the 'pending' variable

drivers/rtc/rtc-pcf8563.c:173:5: warning: 'pending' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
This is because in the pcf8563_get_alarm_mode() function, we check any
nonzero return of pcf8563_read_block_data, but in the irq function we
only check for negative values, so a possible positive value does not
get detected if the compiler chooses not to inline the entire call
chain.
Checking for any non-zero value in the interrupt handler as well is just
as correct and lets the compiler know what we are doing, without needing
a bogus initialization.

The max77686 mfd driver adds a regmap IRQ chip which creates an IRQ
domain that is used to map the virtual RTC alarm1 interrupt.
The RTC driver assumes that this will always be true since the PMIC IRQ
is a required property according to the max77686 DT binding doc. If an
"interrupts" property is not defined for a max77686 PMIC, then the mfd
probe function will fail and the RTC platform driver will never be
probed.
But even when it is not possible to probe the rtc-max77686 driver
without a regmap IRQ chip, it's better to explicitly check if the IRQ
chip data is not NULL and gracefully fail instead of getting an OOPS.

for these features seems to be implemented in the driver but compilation
is disabled using a C pre-processor conditional.
This code has been disabled since the driver was original merged in

So, since this code has never been built, let's just remove it.

This series add support for the Real Time clock present in the Maxim 77802
Power Managment IC. The version number is quite high because it
previously was part of a bigger series [0] that aimed to add support for
all the devices in the max77802 PMIC. But now that the max77802
dependencies were already merged for 3.17, the series were split but I
kept the version numbering.
While working on the max77802 rtc support a lot of feedback was given and
the issues pointed out also apply to a driver for a similar PMIC RTC
(max77686). So patches 01/06 to 05/06 in the series are cleanups for the
max77686 driver and patch 06/06 adds the support for the max77802 RTC.
The series were tested on an Exynos5250 Snow (max77686) and
Exynos5420 Peach Pit (max77802) machines.
This patch (of 6):
The max77686 includes an RTC that keeps power during suspend. It's
convenient to be able to use it as a wakeup source.

If rcu-walk mode we don't *have* to return -EISDIR for non-mount-traps
as we will simply drop into REF-walk and handling DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT
dentrys the slow way. But it is better if we do when possible.
In 'oz_mode', use the same condition as ref-walk: if not a mountpoint,
then it must be -EISDIR.
In regular mode there are most tests needed. Most of them can be
performed without taking any spinlocks. If we find a directory that
isn't obviously empty, and isn't mounted on, we need to call
'simple_empty()' which does take a spinlock. If this turned out to hurt
performance, some other approach could be found to signal when a
directory is known to be empty.

->fs_lock protects AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING. We need to be sure that once
the flag is set, no new references beneath the dentry are taken. So
rcu-walk currently needs to take fs_lock before checking the flag. This
hurts performance.
Change the expiry to a two-stage process. First set AUTOFS_INF_NO_RCU
which forces any path walk into ref-walk mode, then drop the lock and
call synchronize_rcu(). Once that returns we can be sure no rcu-walk is
active beneath the dentry and we can check reference counts again.
Now during an RCU-walk we can test AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING without taking
the lock as along as we test AUTOFS_INF_NO_RCU too. If either are set,
we must abort the RCU-walk If neither are set, we know that refcounts
will be tested again after we finish the RCU-walk so we are safe to
continue.
->fs_lock is still taken in d_manage() to check for a non-trap
directory. That will be resolved in the next patch.

This series teaches autofs about RCU-walk so that we don't drop straight
into REF-walk when we hit an autofs directory, and so that we avoid
spinlocks as much as possible when performing an RCU-walk.
This is needed so that the benefits of the recent NFS support for
RCU-walk are fully available when NFS filesystems are automounted.
Patches have been carefully reviewed and tested both with test suites
and in production - thanks a lot to Ian Kent for his support there.
This patch (of 6):
Any attempt to look up a pathname that passes though an autofs4 mount is
currently forced out of RCU-walk into REF-walk.
This can significantly hurt performance of many-thread work loads on
many-core systems, especially if the automounted filesystem supports
RCU-walk but doesn't get to benefit from it.
So if autofs4_d_manage is called with rcu_walk set, only fail with -ECHILD
if it is necessary to wait longer than a spinlock.

gcc-4.9 on ARM gives us a mysterious warning about the binfmt_misc
parse_command function:
fs/binfmt_misc.c: In function 'parse_command.part.3':
fs/binfmt_misc.c:405:7: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
I've managed to trace this back to the ARM implementation of memset,
which is called from copy_from_user in case of a fault and which does
#define memset(p,v,n) \
({ \
void *__p = (p); size_t __n = n; \
if ((__n) != 0) { \
if (__builtin_constant_p((v)) && (v) == 0) \
__memzero((__p),(__n)); \
else \
memset((__p),(v),(__n)); \
} \
(__p); \
})
Apparently gcc gets confused by the check for "size != 0" and believes
that the size might be zero when it gets to the line that does "if
(s[count-1] == '\n')", so it would access data outside of the array.
gcc is clearly wrong here, since this condition was already checked
earlier in the function and the 'size' value can not change in the
meantime.
Fortunately, we can work around it and get rid of the warning by
rearranging the function to check for zero size after doing the
copy_from_user. It is still safe to pass a zero size into
copy_from_user, so it does not cause any side effects.

The current code places a 256 byte limit on the registration format.
This ends up being fairly limited when you try to do matching against a
binary format like ELF:
- the magic & mask formats cannot have any embedded NUL chars
(string_unescape_inplace halts at the first NUL)
- each escape sequence quadruples the size: \x00 is needed for NUL
- trying to match bytes at the start of the file as well as further
on leads to a lot of \x00 sequences in the mask
- magic & mask have to be the same length (when decoded)
- still need bytes for the other fields
- impossible!
Let's look at a concrete (and common) example: using QEMU to run MIPS
ELFs. The name field uses 11 bytes "qemu-mipsel". The interp uses 20
bytes "/usr/bin/qemu-mipsel". The type & flags takes up 4 bytes. We
need 7 bytes for the delimiter (usually ":"). We can skip offset. So
already we're down to 107 bytes to use with the magic/mask instead of
the real limit of 128 (BINPRM_BUF_SIZE). If people use shell code to
register (which they do the majority of the time), they're down to ~26
possible bytes since the escape sequence must be \x##.
The ELF format looks like (both 32 & 64 bit):
e_ident: 16 bytes
e_type: 2 bytes
e_machine: 2 bytes
Those 20 bytes are enough for most architectures because they have so few
formats in the first place, thus they can be uniquely identified. That
also means for shell users, since 20 is smaller than 26, they can sanely
register a handler.
But for some targets (like MIPS), we need to poke further. The ELF fields
continue on:
e_entry: 4 or 8 bytes
e_phoff: 4 or 8 bytes
e_shoff: 4 or 8 bytes
e_flags: 4 bytes
We only care about e_flags here as that includes the bits to identify
whether the ELF is O32/N32/N64. But now we have to consume another 16
bytes (for 32 bit ELFs) or 28 bytes (for 64 bit ELFs) just to match the
flags. If every byte is escaped, we send 288 more bytes to the kernel
((20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 12 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} + 4
{e_flags}) * 2 {mask,magic} * 4 {escape}) and we've clearly blown our
budget.
Even if we try to be clever and do the decoding ourselves (rather than
relying on the kernel to process \x##), we still can't hit the mark --
string_unescape_inplace treats mask & magic as C strings so NUL cannot
be embedded. That leaves us with having to pass \x00 for the 12/24
entry/phoff/shoff bytes (as those will be completely random addresses),
and that is a minimum requirement of 48/96 bytes for the mask alone.
Add up the rest and we blow through it (this is for 64 bit ELFs):
magic: 20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 24 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} +
4 {e_flags} = 48 # ^^ See note below.
mask: 20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 96 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} +
4 {e_flags} = 120
Remember above we had 107 left over, and now we're at 168. This is of
course the *best* case scenario -- you'll also want to have NUL bytes
in the magic & mask too to match literal zeros.
Note: the reason we can use 24 in the magic is that we can work off of the
fact that for bytes the mask would clobber, we can stuff any value into
magic that we want. So when mask is \x00, we don't need the magic to also
be \x00, it can be an unescaped raw byte like '!'. This lets us handle
more formats (barely) under the current 256 limit, but that's a pretty
tall hoop to force people to jump through.
With all that said, let's bump the limit from 256 bytes to 1920. This way
we support escaping every byte of the mask & magic field (which is 1024
bytes by themselves -- 128 * 4 * 2), and we leave plenty of room for other
fields. Like long paths to the interpreter (when you have source in your
/really/long/homedir/qemu/foo). Since the current code stuffs more than
one structure into the same buffer, we leave a bit of space to easily
round up to 2k. 1920 is just as arbitrary as 256 ;).

Add an exception to the return before else warning when the line
following it is also a return like:
if (foo)
return bar;
else
return baz;
This form of a test then return is at least as readable as
if (foo)
return bar;
return baz;
so don't emit a warning on the first form.

Check for misspellings, based on Debian's lintian list. Several false
positives were removed, and several additional words added that were
common in the kernel:
backword backwords
invalide valide
recieves
singed unsinged
While going back and fixing existing spelling mistakes isn't a high
priority, it'd be nice to try to catch them before they hit the tree.
In the 13830 commits between 3.15 and 3.16, the script would have noticed
560 spelling mistakes. The top 25 are shown here:

Macros with flow control statements (goto and return) are not very nice to
read as any flow movement is unexpected.
Try to highlight them and emit a warning on their definition.
Avoid warning on macros that use argument concatenation as those macros
commonly create another function where the concatenation is used in the
function name definition like:
#define FOO_FUNC(name, rtn_type) \
rtn_type func##name(arg1, ...) \
{ \
rtn_type rtn; \
[code...] \
return rtn; \
}

Using a space between concatenated string elements is easier for a human

ie:
"String"FOO"bar"
is easier to read as:
"String" FOO "bar"

This script is used by many other projects, and in some of them the
requirement of at least 4 line long description for all Kconfig items is
excessive. This patch adds a command line option to control the required
minimum length.
Tested running this script over a patch including a two line config
description. The script generated a warning when invoked as is, and did
not generate it when invoked with --min-conf-desc-length=2.

When run on *.dtsi or *.dts files, the whitespace checks were skipped,
while they are valid for DTS files. Hence stop skipping them.
I ran checkpatch on all in-tree DTS files, and didn't notice any error or

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
css_scan_tasks()"). It should be compiled out to shrink the binary
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.
