In the future usermode helper users do not need to carry in all the of kmod headers declarations. Since kmod.h still includes umh.h this change has no functional changes, each umh user can be cleaned up separately later and with time.

Luis R. Rodriguez authored
Patch series "kmod: few code cleanups to split out umh code" The usermode helper has a provenance from the old usb code which first required a usermode helper. Eventually this was shoved into kmod.c and the kernel's modprobe calls was converted over eventually to share the same code. Over time the list of usermode helpers in the kernel has grown -- so kmod is just but one user of the API. This series is a simple logical cleanup which acknowledges the code evolution of the usermode helper and shoves the UMH API into its own dedicated file. This way users of the API can later just include umh.h instead of kmod.h. Note despite the diff state the first patch really is just a code shove, no functional changes are done there. I did use git format-patch -M to generate the patch, but in the end the split was not enough for git to consider it a rename hence the large diffstat. I've put this through 0-day and it gives me their machine compilation blessings with all tests as OK. This patch (of 4): There's a slew of usermode helper users and kmod is just one of them. Split out the usermode helper code into its own file to keep the logic and focus split up. This change provides no functional changes.

The UINT_MAX comparison is not needed because "max" is already an unsigned int, and we expect developer C code max value input to have a sensible 0 - UINT_MAX range. Note that if it so happens to be UINT_MAX + 1 it would lead to an issue, but we expect the developer to know this.

The standard types unsigned int and unsigned long should be used for .compat_ioctl. autofs is the only fs using uing/ulong for this, and these are even the only uint/ulong in the entire autofs code. Drop unneeded long cast in return value of autofs_dev_ioctl_compat(). It's already long. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/150285069709.4670.3884827966280147529.stgit@pluto.themaw.netSigned-off-by:

This comment was correct when it was added in 8d7b48e0 ("autofs4: add miscellaneous device for ioctls") in 2008, but not after 4e44b685 "Get rid of path_lookup in autofs4" in 2009 which introduced find_autofs_mount().

Use a macro which defines misc-dev ioctl parameter size (excluding a path beyond &path[0]) since it's been used to initialize and copy this structure ever since it first appeared in 8d7b48e0 in 2008. (or simply get rid of this if this is just unnecessary abstraction when all it needs is sizeof(struct autofs_dev_ioctl)) Edit: raven@themaw.net That's a good point but I'd prefer to keep the macro define.

These are not used by either kernel or userspace, although AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_DIRECT once seems to have been used by userspace in around 2006-2008, which was technically just an alias of the existing ioctl AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_MULTI. ioctls for autofs are already complicated enough that they could be removed unless these are staying here to be able to compile userspace code of certain period of time from a decade ago. Edit: raven@themaw.net Yes, this is indeed very old and anything that still uses must be updated becuase it will be using broken functionality.

The fstatat(2) and statx() calls can pass the flag AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT which is meant to clear the LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag and prevent triggering of an automount by the call. But this flag is unconditionally cleared for all stat family system calls except statx(). stat family system calls have always triggered mount requests for the negative dentry case in follow_automount() which is intended but prevents the fstatat(2) and statx() AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT case from being handled. In order to handle the AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT for both system calls the negative dentry case in follow_automount() needs to be changed to return ENOENT when the LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag is clear (and the other required flags are clear). AFAICT this change doesn't have any noticable side effects and may, in some use cases (although I didn't see it in testing) prevent unnecessary callbacks to the automount daemon. It's also possible that a stat family call has been made with a path that is in the process of being mounted by some other process. But stat family calls should return the automount state of the path as it is "now" so it shouldn't wait for mount completion. This is the same semantic as the positive dentry case already handled.

Patch series "Command line randomness", v3. A series to add the kernel command line as a source of randomness. This patch (of 2): Stack canary intialization involves getting a random number. Getting this random number may involve accessing caches or other architectural specific features which are not available until after the architecture is setup.

Unlike all other types, LONG_LINE, LONG_LINE_COMMENT and LONG_LINE_STRING are passed to WARN() through a variable. This causes the parser in list_types() to miss them and consequently they are not present in the output of --list-types. Additionally, types TYPO_SPELLING, FSF_MAILING_ADDRESS and AVOID_BUG are passed with a variable level, causing the parser to miss them too. So modify the regex to also catch these special cases.

__radix_tree_preload() only disables preemption if no error is returned. So we really need to make sure callers always check the return value. idr_preload() contract is to always disable preemption, so we need to add a missing preempt_disable() if an error happened. Similarly, ida_pre_get() only needs to call preempt_enable() in the case no error happened.

This is mostly to keep the number of static checker warnings down so we can spot new bugs instead of them being drowned in noise. This function doesn't return normal kernel error codes but instead the return value is used to display exactly which memory failed. I chose -1 as hopefully that's a helpful thing to print.

Current implementation of bitmap_parselist() uses a static variable to save local state while setting bits in the bitmap. It is obviously wrong if we assume execution in multiprocessor environment. Fortunately, it's possible to rewrite this portion of code to avoid using the static variable. It is also possible to set bits in the mask per-range with bitmap_set(), not per-bit, as it is implemented now, with set_bit(); which is way faster. The important side effect of this change is that setting bits in this function from now is not per-bit atomic and less memory-ordered. This is because set_bit() guarantees the order of memory accesses, while bitmap_set() does not. I think that it is the advantage of the new approach, because the bitmap_parselist() is intended to initialise bit arrays, and user should protect the whole bitmap during initialisation if needed. So protecting individual bits looks expensive and useless. Also, other range-oriented functions in lib/bitmap.c don't worry much about atomicity. With all that, setting 2k bits in map with the pattern like 0-2047:128/256 becomes ~50 times faster after applying the patch in my testing environment (arm64 hosted on qemu). The second patch of the series adds the test for bitmap_parselist(). It's not intended to cover all tricky cases, just to make sure that I didn't screw up during rework.

Add a test module that allows testing that CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL works correctly, at least that it can catch invalid calls to virt_to_phys() against the non-linear kernel virtual address map. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170808164035.26725-1-f.fainelli@gmail.comSigned-off-by:

In some cases caller would like to use error code directly without shadowing. -EINVAL feels a rightful code to return in case of error in hex2bin(). Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170731135510.68023-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by:

For the same reasons we already cache the leftmost pointer, apply the same optimization for rb_last() calls. Users must explicitly do this as rb_root_cached only deals with the smallest node.

Such that we can optimize __mem_cgroup_largest_soft_limit_node(). The only overhead is the extra footprint for the cached pointer, but this should not be an issue for mem_cgroup_tree_per_node.
