In some cases the link between between customer and supplier
already exist, for example when a device use its parent as a supplier.
Do not warn about already existing dependencies because device_link_add()
takes care of this case.

There is a race window in device_shutdown(), which may cause
-1. parent device shut down before child or
-2. no shutdown on a new probing device.
For 1st, taking the following scenario:
device_shutdown new plugin device
list_del_init(parent_dev);
spin_unlock(list_lock);
device_add(child)
probe child
shutdown parent_dev
--> now child is on the tail of devices_kset
For 2nd, taking the following scenario:
device_shutdown new plugin device
device_add(dev)
device_lock(dev);
...
device_unlock(dev);
probe dev
--> now, the new occurred dev has no opportunity to shutdown
To fix this race issue, just prevent the new probing request. With this
logic, device_shutdown() is more similar to dpm_prepare().

For devices with a class, we create a "glue" directory between
the parent device and the new device with the class name.
This directory is never "explicitely" removed when empty however,
this is left to the implicit sysfs removal done by kobject_release()
when the object loses its last reference via kobject_put().
This is problematic because as long as it's not been removed from
sysfs, it is still present in the class kset and in sysfs directory
structure.
The presence in the class kset exposes a use after free bug fixed
by the previous patch, but the presence in sysfs means that until
the kobject is released, which can take a while (especially with
kobject debugging), any attempt at re-creating such as binding a
new device for that class/parent pair, will result in a sysfs
duplicate file name error.
This fixes it by instead doing an explicit kobject_del() when
the glue dir is empty, by keeping track of the number of
child devices of the gluedir.
This is made easy by the fact that all glue dir operations are
done with a global mutex, and there's already a function
(cleanup_glue_dir) called in all the right places taking that
mutex that can be enhanced for this. It appears that this was
in fact the intent of the function, but the implementation was
wrong.

If a device link is added via device_link_add() by the driver of the
link's consumer device, the supplier's runtime PM usage counter is
going to be dropped by the pm_runtime_put_suppliers() call in
driver_probe_device(). However, in that case it is not incremented
unless the supplier driver is already present and the link is not
stateless. That leads to a runtime PM usage counter imbalance for
the supplier device in a few cases.
To prevent that from happening, bump up the supplier runtime
PM usage counter in device_link_add() for all links with the
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME flag set that are added at the consumer probe
time. Use pm_runtime_get_noresume() for that as the callers of
device_link_add() who want the supplier to be resumed by it are
expected to pass DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE in flags to it anyway, but
additionally resume the supplier if the link is added during
consumer driver probe to retain the existing behavior for the
callers depending on it.

This is because kernfs_create_link() is confused by previous device_add()
call which continued without setting dev->kobj.parent field when
get_device_parent() failed by memory allocation fault injection.
Fix this by propagating the error from class_dir_create_and_add() to

When bridge and its endpoint is enumerated the devices are added to the
dpm list. Afterward, the bridge defers probe when IOMMU is not ready.
This causes the bridge to be moved to the end of the dpm list when
deferred probe kicks in. The order of the dpm list for bridge and
endpoint is reversed.
Add reordering code to move the bridge and its children and consumers to
the end of the pm list so the order for suspend and resume is not altered.
The code also move device and its children and consumers to the tail of
device_kset list if it is registered.

If device_link_add() is invoked multiple times with the same supplier
and consumer combo, it will create the link on first addition and
return a pointer to the already existing link on all subsequent
additions.
The semantics for device_link_del() are quite different, it deletes
the link unconditionally, so multiple invocations are not allowed.
In other words, this snippet ...
struct device *dev1, *dev2;
struct device_link *link1, *link2;
link1 = device_link_add(dev1, dev2, 0);
link2 = device_link_add(dev1, dev2, 0);
device_link_del(link1);
device_link_del(link2);
... causes the following crash:
WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 2686 at drivers/base/power/runtime.c:1611 pm_runtime_drop_link+0x40/0x50

list_del corruption, 0000000039b800a4->prev is LIST_POISON2 (00000000ecf79852)
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:50!
The issue isn't as arbitrary as it may seem: Imagine a device link
which is added in both the supplier's and the consumer's ->probe hook.
The two drivers can't just call device_link_del() in their ->remove hook
without coordination.
Fix by counting multiple additions and dropping the device link only
when the last addition is unwound.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all driver core files, that identifies the
license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text
wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the driver core files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

// WRITE_ONCE()

The current ordering of code in device_del() triggers a WARN_ON()
in device_links_purge(), because of an unexpected link status.
The device_links_unbind_consumers() call in device_release_driver()
has to take place before device_links_purge() for the status of all
links to be correct, so move the device_links_purge() call in
device_del() after the invocation of bus_remove_device() which calls
device_release_driver().

Add a helper function to be used when reusing the device-tree node of
another device.
It is fairly common for drivers to reuse the device-tree node of a
parent (or other ancestor) device when creating class or bus devices
(e.g. gpio chips, i2c adapters, iio chips, spi masters, serdev, phys,
usb root hubs). But reusing a device-tree node may cause problems if the
new device is later probed as for example driver core would currently
attempt to reinitialise an already active associated pinmux
configuration.
Other potential issues include the platform-bus code unconditionally
dropping the device-tree node reference in its device destructor,
reinitialisation of other bus-managed resources such as clocks, and the
recently added DMA-setup in driver core.
Note that for most examples above this is currently not an issue as the
devices are never probed, but this is a problem for the USB bus which
has recently gained device-tree support. This was discovered and
worked-around in a rather ad-hoc fashion by commit dc5878abf49c ("usb:
core: move root hub's device node assignment after it is added to bus")
by not setting the of_node pointer until after the root-hub device has
been registered.
Instead we can allow devices to reuse a device-tree node by setting a
flag in their struct device that can be used by core, bus and driver
code to avoid resources from being over-allocated.
Note that the helper also grabs an extra reference to the device node,
which specifically balances the unconditional put in the platform-device
destructor.

This patch makes it possible to pass additional arguments in addition
to uevent action name when writing /sys/.../uevent attribute. These
additional arguments are then inserted into generated synthetic uevent
as additional environment variables.
Before, we were not able to pass any additional uevent environment
variables for synthetic uevents. This made it hard to identify such uevents
properly in userspace to make proper distinction between genuine uevents
originating from kernel and synthetic uevents triggered from userspace.
Also, it was not possible to pass any additional information which would
make it possible to optimize and change the way the synthetic uevents are
processed back in userspace based on the originating environment of the
triggering action in userspace. With the extra additional variables, we are
able to pass through this extra information needed and also it makes it
possible to synchronize with such synthetic uevents as they can be clearly
identified back in userspace.
The format for writing the uevent attribute is following:
ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...]
There's no change in how "ACTION" is recognized - it stays the same
("add", "change", "remove"). The "ACTION" is the only argument required
to generate synthetic uevent, the rest of arguments, that this patch
adds support for, are optional.
The "UUID" is considered as transaction identifier so it's possible to
use the same UUID value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case
we logically group these uevents together for any userspace listeners.
The "UUID" is expected to be in "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
format where "x" is a hex digit. The value appears in uevent as
"SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" environment variable.
The "KEY=VALUE" pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only. It's
possible to define zero or more more pairs - each pair is then delimited
by a space character " ". Each pair appears in synthetic uevents as
"SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE" environment variable. That means the KEY name gains
"SYNTH_ARG_" prefix to avoid possible collisions with existing variables.
To pass the "KEY=VALUE" pairs, it's also required to pass in the "UUID"
part for the synthetic uevent first.
If "UUID" is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains
"SYNTH_UUID=0" environment variable automatically so it's possible to
identify this situation in userspace when reading generated uevent and so
we can still make a difference between genuine and synthetic uevents.

Modify the runtime PM framework to use device links to ensure that
supplier devices will not be suspended if any of their consumer
devices are active.
The idea is to reference count suppliers on the consumer's resume
and drop references to them on its suspend. The information on
whether or not the supplier has been reference counted by the
consumer's (runtime) resume is stored in a new field (rpm_active)
in the link object for each link.
It may be necessary to clean up those references when the
supplier is unbinding and that's why the links whose status is
DEVICE_LINK_SUPPLIER_UNBIND are skipped by the runtime suspend
and resume code.
The above means that if the consumer device is probed in the
runtime-active state, the supplier has to be resumed and reference
counted by device_link_add() so the code works as expected on its
(runtime) suspend. There is a new flag, DEVICE_LINK_RPM_ACTIVE,
to tell device_link_add() about that (in which case the caller
is responsible for making sure that the consumer really will
be runtime-active when runtime PM is enabled for it).
The other new link flag, DEVICE_LINK_PM_RUNTIME, tells the core
whether or not the link should be used for runtime PM at all.

Currently, there is a problem with taking functional dependencies
between devices into account.
What I mean by a "functional dependency" is when the driver of device
B needs device A to be functional and (generally) its driver to be
present in order to work properly. This has certain consequences
for power management (suspend/resume and runtime PM ordering) and
shutdown ordering of these devices. In general, it also implies that
the driver of A needs to be working for B to be probed successfully
and it cannot be unbound from the device before the B's driver.
Support for representing those functional dependencies between
devices is added here to allow the driver core to track them and act
on them in certain cases where applicable.
The argument for doing that in the driver core is that there are
quite a few distinct use cases involving device dependencies, they
are relatively hard to get right in a driver (if one wants to
address all of them properly) and it only gets worse if multiplied
by the number of drivers potentially needing to do it. Morever, at
least one case (asynchronous system suspend/resume) cannot be handled
in a single driver at all, because it requires the driver of A to
wait for B to suspend (during system suspend) and the driver of B to
wait for A to resume (during system resume).
For this reason, represent dependencies between devices as "links",
with the help of struct device_link objects each containing pointers
to the "linked" devices, a list node for each of them, status
information, flags, and an RCU head for synchronization.
Also add two new list heads, representing the lists of links to the
devices that depend on the given one (consumers) and to the devices
depended on by it (suppliers), and a "driver presence status" field
(needed for figuring out initial states of device links) to struct
device.
The entire data structure consisting of all of the lists of link
objects for all devices is protected by a mutex (for link object
addition/removal and for list walks during device driver probing
and removal) and by SRCU (for list walking in other case that will
be introduced by subsequent change sets). If CONFIG_SRCU is not
selected, however, an rwsem is used for protecting the entire data
structure.
In addition, each link object has an internal status field whose
value reflects whether or not drivers are bound to the devices
pointed to by the link or probing/removal of their drivers is in
progress etc. That field is only modified under the device links
mutex, but it may be read outside of it in some cases (introduced by
subsequent change sets), so modifications of it are annotated with
WRITE_ONCE().
New links are added by calling device_link_add() which takes three
arguments: pointers to the devices in question and flags. In
particular, if DL_FLAG_STATELESS is set in the flags, the link status
is not to be taken into account for this link and the driver core
will not manage it. In turn, if DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE is set in the
flags, the driver core will remove the link automatically when the
consumer device driver unbinds from it.
One of the actions carried out by device_link_add() is to reorder
the lists used for device shutdown and system suspend/resume to
put the consumer device along with all of its children and all of
its consumers (and so on, recursively) to the ends of those lists
in order to ensure the right ordering between all of the supplier
and consumer devices.
For this reason, it is not possible to create a link between two
devices if the would-be supplier device already depends on the
would-be consumer device as either a direct descendant of it or a
consumer of one of its direct descendants or one of its consumers
and so on.
There are two types of link objects, persistent and non-persistent.
The persistent ones stay around until one of the target devices is
deleted, while the non-persistent ones are removed automatically when
the consumer driver unbinds from its device (ie. they are assumed to
be valid only as long as the consumer device has a driver bound to
it). Persistent links are created by default and non-persistent
links are created when the DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE flag is passed
to device_link_add().
Both persistent and non-persistent device links can be deleted
with an explicit call to device_link_del().
Links created without the DL_FLAG_STATELESS flag set are managed
by the driver core using a simple state machine. There are 5 states
each link can be in: DORMANT (unused), AVAILABLE (the supplier driver
is present and functional), CONSUMER_PROBE (the consumer driver is
probing), ACTIVE (both supplier and consumer drivers are present and
functional), and SUPPLIER_UNBIND (the supplier driver is unbinding).
The driver core updates the link state automatically depending on
what happens to the linked devices and for each link state specific
actions are taken in addition to that.
For example, if the supplier driver unbinds from its device, the
driver core will also unbind the drivers of all of its consumers
automatically under the assumption that they cannot function
properly without the supplier. Analogously, the driver core will
only allow the consumer driver to bind to its device if the
supplier driver is present and functional (ie. the link is in
the AVAILABLE state). If that's not the case, it will rely on
the existing deferred probing mechanism to wait for the supplier
driver to become available.
