Use of the GPL or a compatible licence doesn't necessarily make the code
any good. We already consider staging modules to be suspect, and this
should also be true for out-of-tree modules which may receive very
little review.

hex2bin converts a hexadecimal string to its binary representation.
The original version of hex2bin did not do any error checking. This
patch adds error checking and returns the result.
Changelog v1:
- removed unpack_hex_byte()
- changed return code from boolean to int
Changelog:
- use the new unpack_hex_byte()
- add __must_check compiler option (Andy Shevchenko's suggestion)
- change function API to return error checking result
(based on Tetsuo Handa's initial patch)

There is quite a lot of code which does copy_from_user() + strict_strto*()
or simple_strto*() combo in slightly different ways.
Before doing conversions all over tree, let's get final API correct.
Enter kstrtoull_from_user() and friends.
Typical code which uses them looks very simple:
TYPE val;
int rv;
rv = kstrtoTYPE_from_user(buf, count, 0, &val);
if (rv < 0)
return rv;
[use val]
return count;
There is a tiny semantic difference from the plain kstrto*() API -- the
latter allows any amount of leading zeroes, while the former copies data
into buffer on stack and thus allows leading zeroes as long as it fits
into buffer.
This shouldn't be a problem for typical usecase "echo 42 > /proc/x".
The point is to make reading one integer from userspace _very_ simple and
very bug free.

Now that functions may be selected individually, it only makes sense
that we should allow dynamically allocated trace structures to
be traced. This will allow perf to allocate a ftrace_ops structure
at runtime and use it to pick and choose which functions that
structure will trace.
Note, a dynamically allocated ftrace_ops will always be called
indirectly instead of being called directly from the mcount in
entry.S. This is because there's no safe way to prevent mcount
from being preempted before calling the function, unless we
modify every entry.S to do so (not likely). Thus, dynamically allocated
functions will now be called by the ftrace_ops_list_func() that
loops through the ops that are allocated if there are more than
one op allocated at a time. This loop is protected with a
preempt_disable.
To determine if an ftrace_ops structure is allocated or not, a new
util function was added to the kernel/extable.c called
core_kernel_data(), which returns 1 if the address is between
_sdata and _edata.

1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty,
libc way to indicate failure.
2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and
comments pretend they do.
3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants,
but users want strtou8()
4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong:
Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist
because conversion should be strict by default.
The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types.
Enter
kstrtoull()
kstrtoll()
kstrtoul()
kstrtol()
kstrtouint()
kstrtoint()
kstrtou64()
kstrtos64()
kstrtou32()
kstrtos32()
kstrtou16()
kstrtos16()
kstrtou8()
kstrtos8()
Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well.
strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and
eventually will be removed altogether.
Use kstrto*() in code today!
Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if
they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution,
because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these
functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and
__alignof__ at least always works.

Now BUILD_BUG_ON() can handle optimizable constants, we don't need
MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON any more.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
|

BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail
at link time; it was changed to first the size of a negative array (a
nicer compile time error), then (in
8c87df457cb58fe75b9b893007917cf8095660a0) to a bitfield.
This forced us to change some non-constant cases to MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON();
as Jan points out in that commit, it didn't work as intended anyway.
bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under
"if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example.
negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's
a constant, silently has no effect.
link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the
linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error.
If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick,
we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p()
branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at
build time.
We also document it thoroughly.

During early boot, local IRQ is disabled until IRQ subsystem is
properly initialized. During this time, no one should enable
local IRQ and some operations which usually are not allowed with
IRQ disabled, e.g. operations which might sleep or require
communications with other processors, are allowed.
lockdep tracked this with early_boot_irqs_off/on() callbacks.
As other subsystems need this information too, move it to
init/main.c and make it generally available. While at it,
toggle the boolean to early_boot_irqs_disabled instead of
enabled so that it can be initialized with %false and %true
indicates the exceptional condition.

Lumpy reclaim is disruptive. It reclaims a large number of pages and
ignores the age of the pages it reclaims. This can incur significant
stalls and potentially increase the number of major faults.
Compaction has reached the point where it is considered reasonably stable
(meaning it has passed a lot of testing) and is a potential candidate for
displacing lumpy reclaim. This patch introduces an alternative to lumpy
reclaim whe compaction is available called reclaim/compaction. The basic
operation is very simple - instead of selecting a contiguous range of
pages to reclaim, a number of order-0 pages are reclaimed and then
compaction is later by either kswapd (compact_zone_order()) or direct
compaction (__alloc_pages_direct_compact()).

Michal reports:
In the framebuffer subsystem the abs() macro is often used as a part of
the calculation of a Manhattan metric, which in turn is used as a measure
of similarity between video modes. The arguments of abs() are sometimes
unsigned numbers. This worked fine until commit a49c59c0 ("Make sure the
value in abs() does not get truncated if it is greater than 2^32:) , which
changed the definition of abs() to prevent truncation. As a result of
this change, in the following piece of code:
u32 a = 0, b = 1;
u32 c = abs(a - b);
'c' will end up with a value of 0xffffffff instead of the expected 0x1.
A problem caused by this change and visible by the end user is that
framebuffer drivers relying on functions from modedb.c will fail to find
high resolution video modes similar to that explicitly requested by the
user if an exact match cannot be found (see e.g.
Fix this by special-casing `long' types within abs().
This patch reduces x86_64 code size a bit - drivers/video/uvesafb.o shrunk
by 15 bytes, presumably because it is doing abs() on 4-byte quantities,
and expanding those to 8-byte longs adds code.
testcase:
#define oldabs(x) ({ \
long __x = (x); \
(__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \
})
#define newabs(x) ({ \
long ret; \
if (sizeof(x) == sizeof(long)) { \
long __x = (x); \
ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \
} else { \
int __x = (x); \
ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \
} \
ret; \
})
typedef unsigned int u32;
main()
{
u32 a = 0;
u32 b = 1;
u32 oldc = oldabs(a - b);
u32 newc = newabs(a - b);
printf("%u %u\n", oldc, newc);

The kernel syslog contains debugging information that is often useful
during exploitation of other vulnerabilities, such as kernel heap
addresses. Rather than futilely attempt to sanitize hundreds (or
thousands) of printk statements and simultaneously cripple useful
debugging functionality, it is far simpler to create an option that
prevents unprivileged users from reading the syslog.
This patch, loosely based on grsecurity's GRKERNSEC_DMESG, creates the
dmesg_restrict sysctl. When set to "0", the default, no restrictions are
enforced. When set to "1", only users with CAP_SYS_ADMIN can read the
kernel syslog via dmesg(8) or other mechanisms.

Additionally, add a div64_s64 function to correctly handle doing signed

To keep panic_timeout accuracy when running under a hypervisor, the

That brings a good effect, but the problem is the keyboard LEDs don't

This patch changes to call to panic_blink_enter() between every mdelay and
keeps blinking in spite of long spin timer mode.
The time to call to mdelay is now 100ms. Even this change will keep

Special traces type was only used by sysprof. Lets remove it now
that sysprof ftrace plugin has been dropped.

Move the preprocessor #warning message:
warning: #warning Attempt to use kernel headers from user space,
see http://kernelnewbies.org/KernelHeaders
from kernel.h to types.h.
And also fixe the #warning message due to the preprocessor not being able to
read the web address due to it thinking it was the start of a comment. also
remove the extra #ifndef _KERNEL_ since it's already there.

Add the ability to print a format and va_list from a structure pointer
Allows __dev_printk to be implemented as a single printk while
minimizing string space duplication.
%pV should not be used without some mechanism to verify the
format and argument use ala __attribute__(format (printf(...))).

This makes hardware error related log in printk log more explicit. So
that the users can report it to hardware vendor instead of LKML or
software vendor.

hex_to_bin() is a little method which converts hex digit to its actual
value. There are plenty of places where such functionality is needed.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: use tolower(), saving 3 bytes, test the more common case first - it's quicker]

ratelimit_state initialization of printk_ratelimited() seems broken. This
fixes it by using DEFINE_RATELIMIT_STATE() to initialize spinlock
properly.

The current logging macros are
pr_<level>, dev_<level>, netdev_<level>, and netif_<level>.
pr_ uses warning, the other use warn.
Standardize these logging macros a bit more by adding pr_warn and
pr_warn_ratelimited.
Right now, there are:
$ for level in emerg alert crit err warn warning notice info ; do \
for prefix in pr dev netdev netif ; do \
echo -n "${prefix}_${level}: `git grep -w "${prefix}_${level}" | wc -l` " ; \
done ; \
echo ; \
done
pr_emerg: 45 dev_emerg: 4 netdev_emerg: 1 netif_emerg: 4
pr_alert: 24 dev_alert: 36 netdev_alert: 1 netif_alert: 6
pr_crit: 24 dev_crit: 22 netdev_crit: 1 netif_crit: 4
pr_err: 2013 dev_err: 8467 netdev_err: 267 netif_err: 240
pr_warn: 0 dev_warn: 1818 netdev_warn: 126 netif_warn: 23
pr_warning: 773 dev_warning: 0 netdev_warning: 0 netif_warning: 0
pr_notice: 148 dev_notice: 111 netdev_notice: 9 netif_notice: 3
pr_info: 1717 dev_info: 3007 netdev_info: 101 netif_info: 85
