This series unduplicates the code used to find the member in an array closest to 'x'. The first patch adds a macro implementing the algorithm in two flavors - for arrays sorted in ascending and descending order. The second updates Documentation/CodingStyle on the naming convention for local variables in macros resembling functions. Other three patches replace duplicated code with calls to one of these macros in some hwmon drivers. This patch (of 5): Searching for the member of an array closest to 'x' is duplicated in several places. Add a new include - util_macros.h - and two macros that implement this algorithm for arrays sorted both in ascending and descending order. Uses linear search.

bucket_find_contain() will search the bucket list for a dma_debug_entry. When the entry isn't found it needs to search other buckets too, since only the start address of a dma range is hashed (which might be in a different bucket). A copy of the dma_debug_entry is used to get the previous hash bucket but when its list is searched the original dma_debug_entry is to be used not its modified copy. This fixes false "device driver tries to sync DMA memory it has not allocated" warnings.

The most expensive part of decimal conversion is the divisions by 10 (albeit done using reciprocal multiplication with appropriately chosen constants). I decided to see if one could eliminate around half of these multiplications by emitting two digits at a time, at the cost of a 200 byte lookup table, and it does indeed seem like there is something to be gained, especially on 64 bits. Microbenchmarking shows improvements ranging from -50% (for numbers uniformly distributed in [0, 2^64-1]) to -25% (for numbers heavily biased toward the smaller end, a more realistic distribution). On a larger scale, perf shows that top, one of the big consumers of /proc data, uses 0.5-1.0% fewer cpu cycles. I had to jump through some hoops to get the 32 bit code to compile and run on my 64 bit machine, so I'm not sure how relevant these numbers are, but just for comparison the microbenchmark showed improvements between -30% and -10%. The bloat-o-meter costs are around 150 bytes (the generated code is a little smaller, so it's not the full 200 bytes) on both 32 and 64 bit. I'm aware that extra cache misses won't show up in a microbenchmark as used above, but on the other hand decimal conversions often happen in bulk (for example in the case of top). I have of course tested that the new code generates the same output as the old, for both the first and last 1e10 numbers in [0,2^64-1] and 4e9 'random' numbers in-between.

This patchset does rework to find_bit function family to achieve better performance, and decrease size of text. All rework is done in patch 1. Patches 2 and 3 are about code moving and renaming. It was boot-tested on x86_64 and MIPS (big-endian) machines. Performance tests were ran on userspace with code like this: /* addr[] is filled from /dev/urandom */ start = clock(); while (ret < nbits) ret = find_next_bit(addr, nbits, ret + 1); end = clock(); printf("%ld\t", (unsigned long) end - start); On Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz measurements are: (for find_next_bit, nbits is 8M, for find_first_bit - 80K) find_next_bit: find_first_bit: new current new current 26932 43151 14777 14925 26947 43182 14521 15423 26507 43824 15053 14705 27329 43759 14473 14777 26895 43367 14847 15023 26990 43693 15103 15163 26775 43299 15067 15232 27282 42752 14544 15121 27504 43088 14644 14858 26761 43856 14699 15193 26692 43075 14781 14681 27137 42969 14451 15061 ... ... find_next_bit performance gain is 35-40%; find_first_bit - no measurable difference. On ARM machine, there is arch-specific implementation for find_bit. Thanks a lot to George Spelvin and Rasmus Villemoes for hints and helpful discussions. This patch (of 3): New implementations takes less space in source file (see diffstat) and in object. For me it's 710 vs 453 bytes of text. It also shows better performance. find_last_bit description fixed due to obvious typo.

Commit 9c521a20 ("crypto: api - remove instance when test failed") tried to grab a module reference count before the module was even set. Worse, it then goes on to free the module reference count after it is set so you quickly end up with a negative module reference count which prevents people from using any instances belonging to that module. This patch moves the module initialisation before the reference count.

The macro BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK can be implemented without a conditional, which will generally lead to slightly better generated code (221 bytes saved for allmodconfig-GCOV_KERNEL, ~2k with GCOV_KERNEL). As a small bonus, this also ensures that the nbits parameter is expanded exactly once. In BITMAP_FIRST_WORD_MASK, if start is signed gcc is technically allowed to assume it is positive (or divisible by BITS_PER_LONG), and hence just do the simple mask. It doesn't seem to use this, and even on an architecture like x86 where the shift only depends on the lower 5 or 6 bits, and these bits are not affected by the signedness of the expression, gcc still generates code to compute the C99 mandated value of start % BITS_PER_LONG. So just use a mask explicitly, also for consistency with BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK.

The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf). So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like: Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination. It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences, otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever they previously contained. This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem(); since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops. In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref) if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for kasprintf("%pE") to work. In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics. Someone should definitely double-check this. In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it should stop poking around in seq_file internals.

When printf is given the format specifier %pE, it needs a way of obtaining the total output size that would be generated if the buffer was large enough, and string_escape_mem doesn't easily provide that. This is a refactorization of string_escape_mem in preparation of changing its external API to provide that information. The somewhat ugly early returns and subsequent seemingly redundant conditionals are to make the following patch touch as little as possible in string_helpers.c while still preserving the current behaviour of never outputting partial escape sequences. That behaviour must also change for %pE to work as one expects from every other printf specifier.

The helper hex_string() is broken in two ways. First, it doesn't increment buf regardless of whether there is room to print, so callers such as kasprintf() that try to probe the correct storage to allocate will get a too small return value. But even worse, kasprintf() (and likely anyone else trying to find the size of the result) pass NULL for buf and 0 for size, so we also have end == NULL. But this means that the end-1 in hex_string() is (char*)-1, so buf < end-1 is true and we get a NULL pointer deref. I double-checked this with a trivial kernel module that just did a kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%14ph", "CrashBoomBang"). Nobody seems to be using %ph with kasprintf, but we might as well fix it before it hits someone.

This patch series improves the documentation for printk() formats, and adds support for printing clocks. The latter has always been a hassle if you wanted to support both the common and legacy clock frameworks. - '%pC' and '%pCn' print the name (Common Clock Framework) or address (legacy clock framework) of a clock, - '%pCr' prints the current clock rate. This patch (of 3): Make sure all %p extensions that take parameters by references are documented to do so.
