* coredump: use from_kuid/kgid when formatting corenameNicolas Iooss2015-06-262-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When adding __printf attribute to cn_printf, gcc reports some issues: fs/coredump.c:213:5: warning: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 3 has type 'kuid_t' [-Wformat=] err = cn_printf(cn, "%d", cred->uid); ^ fs/coredump.c:217:5: warning: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 3 has type 'kgid_t' [-Wformat=] err = cn_printf(cn, "%d", cred->gid); ^ These warnings come from the fact that the value of uid/gid needs to be extracted from the kuid_t/kgid_t structure before being used as an integer. More precisely, cred->uid and cred->gid need to be converted to either user-namespace uid/gid or to init_user_ns uid/gid. Use init_user_ns in order not to break existing ABI, and document this in Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt. While at it, format uid and gid values with %u instead of %d because uid_t/__kernel_uid32_t and gid_t/__kernel_gid32_t are unsigned int.

* NILFS2: support NFSv2 exportNeilBrown2015-06-261-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "fh_len" passed to ->fh_to_* is not guaranteed to be that same as that returned by encode_fh - it may be larger. With NFSv2, the filehandle is fixed length, so it may appear longer than expected and be zero-padded. So we must test that fh_len is at least some value, not exactly equal to it.

* checkpatch: categorize some long line length checksJoe Perches2015-06-261-10/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many lines of code extend beyond the maximum line length. Some of these are possibly justified by use type. For instance: structure definitions where comments are added per member like: struct foo { type member; /* some long description */ And lines that don't fit the typical logging message style where a string constant is used like: SOME_MACRO(args, "Some long string"); Categorize these long line types so that checkpatch can use a command-line --ignore=<type> option to avoid emitting some long line warnings. One of the existing checkpatch exclusions allowed kernel-doc argument documentation to exceed 80 columns because old versions of kernel-doc required single line documentation. The requirement was removed in 2009 so remove that exclusion. Add documentation to make the test a bit clearer.

* checkpatch: make types found in a source file/patch localAlex Dowad2015-06-261-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | checkpatch uses various cues in its input patches and files to discover the names of user-defined types and modifiers. It then uses that information when processing expressions to discover potential style issues. Unfortunately, in rare cases, this means that checkpatch may give different results if you run it on several input files in one execution, or one by one! The reason is that it may identify a type (or something that looks like a type) in one file, and then carry this information over when processing a different file. For example, drivers/staging/media/bcm2048/radio-bcm2048.c contains this line (in a macro): size value; and drivers/staging/media/davinci_vpfe/vpfe_video.c has this line: while (size * *nbuffers > vpfe_dev->video_limit) If checkpatch processes these 2 files in a single command like: ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f $file1 $file2 the (spurious) "size" type detected in the first file will cause it to flag the second file for improper use of the pointer dereference operator. To fix this, store types and modifiers found in a file in separate arrays from built-in ones, and reset the arrays of types and modifiers found in files at the beginning of each new source file.

* lib/string.c: introduce strreplace()Rasmus Villemoes2015-06-262-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Strings are sometimes sanitized by replacing a certain character (often '/') by another (often '!'). In a few places, this is done the same way Schlemiel the Painter would do it. Others are slightly smarter but still do multiple strchr() calls. Introduce strreplace() to do this using a single function call and a single pass over the string. One would expect the return value to be one of three things: void, s, or the number of replacements made. I chose the fourth, returning a pointer to the end of the string. This is more likely to be useful (for example allowing the caller to avoid a strlen call).

* bitmap: remove explicit newline handling using scnprintf format stringSudeep Holla2015-06-261-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bitmap_print_to_pagebuf uses scnprintf to copy the cpumask/list to page buffer. It handles the newline and trailing null character explicitly. It's unnecessary and also partially duplicated as scnprintf already adds trailing null character. The newline can be passed through format string to scnprintf. This patch does that simplification. However theoretically there's one behavior difference: when the buffer is too small, the original code would still output '\n' at the end while the new code(with this patch) would just continue to print the formatted string. Since this function is dealing with only page buffers, it's highly unlikely to hit that corner case. This patch will help in auditing the users of bitmap_print_to_pagebuf to verify that the buffer passed is large enough and get rid of it completely by replacing them with direct scnprintf() [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak comment] Signed-off-by: Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@arm.com> Suggested-by: Pawel Moll <Pawel.Moll@arm.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: "Peter Zijlstra (Intel)" <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Furthermore, they are all using pointers to swap around: arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:sanitize_e820_map() arch/x86/mm/extable.c:sort_extable() drivers/acpi/fan.c:acpi_fan_get_fps() fs/btrfs/super.c:btrfs_descending_sort_devices() fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_dir2_block.c:xfs_dir2_sf_to_block() kernel/range.c:clean_sort_range() mm/memcontrol.c:__mem_cgroup_usage_register_event() sound/pci/hda/hda_auto_parser.c:snd_hda_parse_pin_defcfg() sound/pci/hda/hda_auto_parser.c:sort_pins_by_sequence() Obviously, we could improve the swap for other sizes as well but this is overkill at this point. A simple test shows sorting a 400 element array (try to stay in one page) with either with u32_swap() or u64_swap() show that the theory actually works. This test was done on a x86_64 (Intel Xeon E5-4610) machine. - swap_32: NumSamples = 100; Min = 48.00; Max = 49.00 Mean = 48.320000; Variance = 0.217600; SD = 0.466476; Median 48.000000 each * represents a count of 1 48.0000 - 48.1000 [ 68]: ******************************************************************** 48.1000 - 48.2000 [ 0]: 48.2000 - 48.3000 [ 0]: 48.3000 - 48.4000 [ 0]: 48.4000 - 48.5000 [ 0]: 48.5000 - 48.6000 [ 0]: 48.6000 - 48.7000 [ 0]: 48.7000 - 48.8000 [ 0]: 48.8000 - 48.9000 [ 0]: 48.9000 - 49.0000 [ 32]: ******************************** - swap_64: NumSamples = 100; Min = 44.00; Max = 63.00 Mean = 48.250000; Variance = 18.687500; SD = 4.322904; Median 47.000000 each * represents a count of 1 44.0000 - 45.9000 [ 15]: *************** 45.9000 - 47.8000 [ 37]: ************************************* 47.8000 - 49.7000 [ 39]: *************************************** 49.7000 - 51.6000 [ 0]: 51.6000 - 53.5000 [ 0]: 53.5000 - 55.4000 [ 0]: 55.4000 - 57.3000 [ 0]: 57.3000 - 59.2000 [ 1]: * 59.2000 - 61.1000 [ 3]: *** 61.1000 - 63.0000 [ 5]: ***** - swap_72: NumSamples = 100; Min = 53.00; Max = 71.00 Mean = 55.070000; Variance = 21.565100; SD = 4.643824; Median 53.000000 each * represents a count of 1 53.0000 - 54.8000 [ 73]: ************************************************************************* 54.8000 - 56.6000 [ 9]: ********* 56.6000 - 58.4000 [ 9]: ********* 58.4000 - 60.2000 [ 0]: 60.2000 - 62.0000 [ 0]: 62.0000 - 63.8000 [ 0]: 63.8000 - 65.6000 [ 0]: 65.6000 - 67.4000 [ 1]: * 67.4000 - 69.2000 [ 4]: **** 69.2000 - 71.0000 [ 4]: **** - test program: static int cmp_32(const void *a, const void *b) { u32 l = *(u32 *)a; u32 r = *(u32 *)b; if (l < r) return -1; if (l > r) return 1; return 0; } static int cmp_64(const void *a, const void *b) { u64 l = *(u64 *)a; u64 r = *(u64 *)b; if (l < r) return -1; if (l > r) return 1; return 0; } static int cmp_72(const void *a, const void *b) { u32 l = get_unaligned((u32 *) a); u32 r = get_unaligned((u32 *) b); if (l < r) return -1; if (l > r) return 1; return 0; } static void init_array32(void *array) { u32 *a = array; int i; a[0] = 3821; for (i = 1; i < ARRAY_ELEMENTS; i++) a[i] = next_pseudo_random32(a[i-1]); } static void init_array64(void *array) { u64 *a = array; int i; a[0] = 3821; for (i = 1; i < ARRAY_ELEMENTS; i++) a[i] = next_pseudo_random32(a[i-1]); } static void init_array72(void *array) { char *p; u32 v; int i; v = 3821; for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_ELEMENTS; i++) { p = (char *)array + (i * 9); put_unaligned(v, (u32*) p); v = next_pseudo_random32(v); } } static void sort_test(void (*init)(void *array), int (*cmp) (const void *, const void *), void *array, size_t size) { ktime_t start, stop; int i; for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++) { init(array); local_irq_disable(); start = ktime_get(); sort(array, ARRAY_ELEMENTS, size, cmp, NULL); stop = ktime_get(); local_irq_enable(); if (i > 10000 - 101) pr_info("%lld\n", ktime_to_us(ktime_sub(stop, start))); } } static void *create_array(size_t size) { void *array; array = kmalloc(ARRAY_ELEMENTS * size, GFP_KERNEL); if (!array) return NULL; return array; } static int perform_test(size_t size) { void *array; array = create_array(size); if (!array) return -ENOMEM; pr_info("test element size %d bytes\n", (int)size); switch (size) { case 4: sort_test(init_array32, cmp_32, array, size); break; case 8: sort_test(init_array64, cmp_64, array, size); break; case 9: sort_test(init_array72, cmp_72, array, size); break; } kfree(array); return 0; } static int __init sort_tests_init(void) { int err; err = perform_test(sizeof(u32)); if (err) return err; err = perform_test(sizeof(u64)); if (err) return err; err = perform_test(sizeof(u64)+1); if (err) return err; return 0; } static void __exit sort_tests_exit(void) { } module_init(sort_tests_init); module_exit(sort_tests_exit); MODULE_LICENSE("GPL v2"); MODULE_AUTHOR("Daniel Wagner"); MODULE_DESCRIPTION("sort perfomance tests"); Signed-off-by: Daniel Wagner <daniel.wagner@bmw-carit.de> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bitmap_parselist("", &mask, nmaskbits) will erroneously set bit zero in the mask. The same bug is visible in cpumask_parselist() since it is layered on top of the bitmask code, e.g. if you boot with "isolcpus=", you will actually end up with cpu zero isolated. The bug was introduced in commit 4b060420a596 ("bitmap, irq: add smp_affinity_list interface to /proc/irq") when bitmap_parselist() was generalized to support userspace as well as kernelspace.

* netconsole: implement extended console supportTejun Heo2015-06-262-3/+173
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | printk logbuf keeps various metadata and optional key=value dictionary for structured messages, both of which are stripped when messages are handed to regular console drivers. It can be useful to have this metadata and dictionary available to netconsole consumers. This obviously makes logging via netconsole more complete and the sequence number in particular is useful in environments where messages may be lost or reordered in transit - e.g. when netconsole is used to collect messages in a large cluster where packets may have to travel congested hops to reach the aggregator. The lost and reordered messages can easily be identified and handled accordingly using the sequence numbers. printk recently added extended console support which can be selected by setting CON_EXTENDED flag. From console driver side, not much changes. The only difference is that the text passed to the write callback is formatted the same way as /dev/kmsg. This patch implements extended console support for netconsole which can be enabled by either prepending "+" to a netconsole boot param entry or echoing 1 to "extended" file in configfs. When enabled, netconsole transmits extended log messages with headers identical to /dev/kmsg output. There's one complication due to message fragments. netconsole limits the maximum message size to 1k and messages longer than that are split into multiple fragments. As all extended console messages should carry matching headers and be uniquely identifiable, each extended message fragment carries full copy of the metadata and an extra header field to identify the specific fragment. The optional header is of the form "ncfrag=OFF/LEN" where OFF is the byte offset into the message body and LEN is the total length. To avoid unnecessarily making printk format extended messages, Extended netconsole is registered with printk when the first extended netconsole is configured.

* netconsole: make all dynamic netconsoles share a mutexTejun Heo2015-06-261-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, each dynamic netconsole_target uses its own separate mutex to synchronize the configuration operations. This patch replaces the per-netconsole_target mutexes with a single mutex - dynamic_netconsole_mutex. The reduced granularity doesn't hurt anything, the code is minutely simpler and this'd allow adding operations which should be synchronized across all dynamic netconsoles.
