Patch series "signal: refactor some functions", v3. This series refactors a bunch of functions in signal.c to simplify parts of the code. The greatest single change is declaring the static do_sigpending() helper as void which makes it possible to remove a bunch of unnecessary checks in the syscalls later on. This patch (of 17): force_sigsegv() returned 0 unconditionally so it doesn't make sense to have it return at all. In addition, there are no callers that check force_sigsegv()'s return value.

Now that we pass down 64-bit timestamps from VFS, we just need to convert that correctly into on-disk timestamps. To make that work correctly, this changes the last use of time_to_tm() in the kernel to time64_to_tm(), which also lets use remove that deprecated interfaces. Similarly, the time_t use in fat_time_fat2unix() truncates the timestamp on the way in, which can be avoided by using types that are wide enough to hold the intermediate values during the conversion.

This fixes the following issues: - When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that each individual name fits, but the concatenation of all names doesn't fit, reiserfs_listxattr() overflows the supplied buffer. This leads to a kernel heap overflow (verified using KASAN) followed by an out-of-bounds usercopy and is therefore a security bug. - When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that a name doesn't fit, -ERANGE should be returned. But reiserfs instead just truncates the list of names; I have verified that if the only xattr on a file has a longer name than the supplied buffer length, listxattr() incorrectly returns zero. With my patch applied, -ERANGE is returned in both cases and the memory corruption doesn't happen anymore. Credit for making me clean this code up a bit goes to Al Viro, who pointed out that the ->actor calling convention is suboptimal and should be changed.

This uses the deprecated time_t type but is write-only, and could be removed, but as Jeff explains, having a timestamp can be usefule for post-mortem analysis in crash dumps. In order to remove one of the last instances of time_t, this changes the type to time64_t, same as j_trans_start_time.

Before linux-2.4.6, print_time() was used to pretty-print an inode time when running reiserfs in user space, after that it has become obsolete and is still a bit incorrect: It behaves differently on 32-bit and 64-bit machines, and uses a static buffer to hold a string, which could lead to undefined behavior if we ever called this from multiple places simultaneously. Since we always want to treat the timestamps as 'unsigned' anyway, simply printing them as an integer is both simpler and safer while avoiding the deprecated time_t type.

Using CLOCK_REALTIME time_t timestamps breaks on 32-bit systems in 2038, and gives surprising results with a concurrent settimeofday(). This changes the reiserfs journal timestamps to use ktime_get_seconds() instead, which makes it use a 64-bit CLOCK_MONOTONIC stamp. In the procfs output, the monotonic timestamp needs to be converted back to CLOCK_REALTIME to keep the existing ABI.

Files created under macOS cannot be opened under linux if their names contain Korean characters, and vice versa. The Korean alphabet is special because its normalization is done without a table. The module deals with it correctly when composing, but forgets about it for the decomposition. Fix this using the Hangul decomposition function provided in the Unicode Standard. The code fits a bit awkwardly because it requires a buffer, while all the other normalizations are returned as pointers to the decomposition table. This is actually also a bug because reordering may still be needed, but for now leave it as it is. The patch will cause trouble for Hangul filenames already created by the module in the past. This shouldn't really be concern because its main purpose was always sharing with macOS. If a user actually needs to access such a file the nodecompose mount option should be enough.

After an extent is removed from the extent tree, the corresponding bits are also cleared from the block allocation file. This is currently done without releasing the tree lock. The problem is that the allocation file has extents of its own; if it is fragmented enough, some of them may be in the extent tree as well, and hfsplus_get_block() will try to take the lock again. To avoid deadlock, only hold the extent tree lock during the actual tree operations. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180709202549.auxwkb6memlegb4a@eafSigned-off-by: Ernesto A.

The userspace automount(8) daemon is meant to perform a forced expire when sent a SIGUSR2. But since the expiration is routed through the kernel and the kernel doesn't send an expire request if the mount is busy this hasn't worked at least since autofs version 5. Add an AUTOFS_EXP_FORCED flag to allow implemention of the feature and bump the protocol version so user space can check if it's implemented if needed.

The global variable "now" in fs/autofs/expire.c is used in an inconsistent way, sometimes using jiffies directly, and sometimes using the "now" variable, and setting it isn't done consistently either. But the autofs dentry info last_used field is only updated during path walks or during expire so jiffies can be used directly and the global variable "now" removed.

Depending on how it is configured the autofs user space daemon can leave in use mounts mounted at exit and re-connect to them at start up. But for this to work best the state of the autofs file system needs to be left intact over the restart. Also, at system shutdown, mounts in an autofs file system might be umounted exposing a mount point trigger for which subsequent access can lead to a hang. So recent versions of automount(8) now does its best to set autofs file system mounts catatonic at shutdown. When autofs file system mounts are catatonic it's currently possible to create and remove directories and symlinks which can be a problem at restart, as described above. So return EACCES in the directory, symlink and unlink methods if the autofs file system is catatonic.

Similar to other calls, ep_poll() is not called with interrupts disabled, and we can therefore avoid the irq save/restore dance and just disable local irqs. In fact, the call should never be called in irq context at all, considering that the only path is epoll_wait(2) -> do_epoll_wait() -> ep_poll(). When running on a 2 socket 40-core (ht) IvyBridge a common pipe based epoll_wait(2) microbenchmark, the following performance improvements are seen: # threads vanilla dirty 1 1805587 2106412 2 1854064 2090762 4 1805484 2017436 8 1751222 1974475 16 1725299 1962104 32 1378463 1571233 64 787368 900784 Which is a pretty constantly near 15%. Also add a lockdep check such that we detect any mischief before deadlocking.

Devicetree bindings should be their own patch as documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt section I.1. This is because bindings are logically independent from a driver implementation, they have a different maintainer (even though they often are applied via the same tree), and it makes for a cleaner history in the DT only tree created with git-filter-branch.

Current checkpatch implementation permits notation like } else{ in kernel code. It looks like oversight and inconsistency in checkpatch rules (e.g. instruction like 'do' is tested). Add regex for checking space after 'else' keyword and trigger error if space is not present.

checkpatch uses the in-kernel script spdxcheck.py to validate the specific license in a file or script. This check can currently fail for a couple reasons: o spdxcheck.py assumes the existence of git tree that may not exist for a bare source tree from something like a tarball o the spdxcheck.py must be run from the top level root directory So add a git existence test and set the subprocess subdirectory.

The current krealloc test does not function correctly when the temporary pointer return name contains the original pointer name. Fix that by maximally matching the return pointer name and the original pointer name and doing a separate comparison of the both names.
