GENMASK() and GENMASK_ULL() are supposed to be called with the high bit as the first argument and the low bit as the second argument. Mixing them will return a mask with zero bits set. Recent commits show getting this wrong is not uncommon, see e.g. commit aa4c0c90 ("net: stmmac: Fix misuses of GENMASK macro") and commit 9bdd7bb3 ("clocksource/drivers/npcm: Fix misuse of GENMASK macro"). To prevent such mistakes from appearing again, add compile time sanity checking to the arguments of GENMASK() and GENMASK_ULL(). If both arguments are known at compile time, and the low bit is higher than the high bit, break the build to detect the mistake immediately. Since GENMASK() is used in declarations, BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO() must be used instead of BUILD_BUG_ON(). __builtin_constant_p does not evaluate is argument, it only checks if it is a constant or not at compile time, and __builtin_choose_expr does not evaluate the expression that is not chosen. Therefore, GENMASK(x++, 0) does only evaluate x++ once. Commit 95b980d6 ("linux/bits.h: make BIT(), GENMASK(), and friends available in assembly") made the macros in linux/bits.h available in assembly. Since BUILD_BUG_OR_ZERO() is not asm compatible, disable the checks if the file is included in an asm file. Due to bugs in GCC versions before 4.9 [0], disable the check if building with a too old GCC compiler. [0]: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19449Signed-off-by:

filter_irq_stacks() can be used by other tools (e.g. KMSAN), so it needs to be moved to a common location. lib/stackdepot.c seems a good place, as filter_irq_stacks() is usually applied to the output of stack_trace_save().

The tests for initializing a variable defined between a switch statement's test and its first "case" statement are currently not initialized in Clang[1] nor the proposed auto-initialization feature in GCC. We should retain the test (so that we can evaluate compiler fixes), but mark it as an "expected fail". The rest of the kernel source will be adjusted to avoid this corner case. Also disable -Wswitch-unreachable for the test so that the intentionally broken code won't trigger warnings for GCC (nor future Clang) when initialization happens this unhandled place.

CONFIG_TEST_LOCKUP=m adds module "test_lockup" that helps to make sure that watchdogs and lockup detectors are working properly. Depending on module parameters test_lockup could emulate soft or hard lockup, "hung task", hold arbitrary lock, allocate bunch of pages. Also it could generate series of lockups with cooling-down periods, in this way it could be used as "ping" for locks or page allocator.

With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, objtool reports: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_execbuffer.o: warning: objtool: i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl()+0x5b7: call to gen8_canonical_addr() with UACCESS enabled This means i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl() is calling gen8_canonical_addr() from the user_access_begin/end critical region (i.e, with SMAP disabled). While it's probably harmless in this case, in general we like to avoid extra function calls in SMAP-disabled regions because it can open up inadvertent security holes. Fix the warning by changing the sign extension helpers to __always_inline. This convinces GCC to inline gen8_canonical_addr(). The sign extension functions are trivial anyway, so it makes sense to always inline them. With my test optimize-for-size-based config, this actually shrinks the text size of i915_gem_execbuffer.o by 45 bytes -- and no change for vmlinux. Reported-by:

compiletime_assert() uses __LINE__ to create a unique function name. This means that if you have more than one BUILD_BUG_ON() in the same source line (which can happen if they appear e.g. in a macro), then the error message from the compiler might output the wrong condition. For this source file: #include <linux/build_bug.h> #define macro() \ BUILD_BUG_ON(1); \ BUILD_BUG_ON(0); void foo() { macro(); } gcc would output: ./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_9' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 0 _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __LINE__) However, it was not the BUILD_BUG_ON(0) that failed, so it should say 1 instead of 0. With this patch, we use __COUNTER__ instead of __LINE__, so each BUILD_BUG_ON() gets a different function name and the correct condition is printed: ./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_0' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 1 _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __COUNTER__) Signed-off-by:Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Signed-off-by:

The code, #undef CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, is not working as expected because <linux/compiler_types.h> is parsed before vclock_gettime.c since 28128c61 ("kconfig.h: Include compiler types to avoid missed struct attributes"). Since then, <linux/compiler_types.h> is included really early by using the '-include' option. So, you cannot negate the decision of <linux/compiler_types.h> in this way. You can confirm it by checking the pre-processed code, like this: $ make arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.i There is no difference with/without CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. It is about two years since 28128c61. Nobody has reported a problem (or, nobody has even noticed the fact that this code is not working). It is ugly and unreliable to attempt to undefine a CONFIG option from C files, and anyway the inlining heuristic is up to the compiler. Just remove the broken code. Signed-off-by:

Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"... Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens if module is getting removed. Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never disappear simply do not need such protection. Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such "permanent" files. Enable "permanent" flag for /proc/cpuinfo /proc/kmsg /proc/modules /proc/slabinfo /proc/stat /proc/sysvipc/* /proc/swaps More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons when it is not. This should help with scalability: benchmark is "read /proc/cpuinfo R times by N threads scattered over the system".

Previously there was a check if 'size' is aligned to 'align' and if not then it was aligned. This check was expensive as both branch and division are expensive instructions in most architectures. 'ALIGN' function on already aligned value will not change it, and as it is cheaper than branch + division it can be executed all the time and branch can be removed. Signed-off-by:

If CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE is defined, but neither CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE nor CONFIG_MIGRATION, then non_swap_entry() will return 0, meaning that the condition (non_swap_entry(entry) && is_device_private_entry(entry)) in zap_pte_range() will never be true even if the entry is a device private one. Equally any other code depending on non_swap_entry() will not function as expected. I originally spotted this just by looking at the code, I haven't actually observed any problems. Looking a bit more closely it appears that actually this situation (currently at least) cannot occur: DEVICE_PRIVATE depends on ZONE_DEVICE ZONE_DEVICE depends on MEMORY_HOTREMOVE MEMORY_HOTREMOVE depends on MIGRATION Fixes: 5042db43 ("mm/ZONE_DEVICE: new type of ZONE_DEVICE for unaddressable memory") Signed-off-by:

The parameter of remap_pfn_range() @pfn passed from the caller is actually a page-frame number converted by corresponding physical address of kernel memory, the original comment is ambiguous that may mislead the users. Meanwhile, there is an ambiguous typo "VMM" in the comment of vm_area_struct. So fixing them will make the code more readable. Signed-off-by:
