2009-06-15fs: fix do_mount_root() false positive kmemcheck warningVegard Nossum1-1/+2
This false positive is due to the fact that do_mount_root() fakes a mount option (which is normally read from userspace), and the kernel unconditionally reads a whole page for the mount option. Hide the false positive by using the new __getname_gfp() with the __GFP_NOTRACK_FALSE_POSITIVE flag. Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>
2009-06-15fs: introduce __getname_gfp()Vegard Nossum1-2/+3
The purpose of this change is to allow __getname() users to pass a custom GFP mask to kmem_cache_alloc(). This is needed for annotating a certain kmemcheck false positive. Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

Add the bitfield API which can be used to annotate bitfields in structs and get rid of false positive reports.

2009-06-15kmemcheck: add opcode self-testing at bootVegard Nossum4-17/+85
We've had some troubles in the past with weird instructions. This patch adds a self-test framework which can be used to verify that a certain set of opcodes are decoded correctly. Of course, the opcodes which are not tested can still give the wrong results. In short, this is just a safeguard to catch unintentional changes in the opcode decoder. It does not mean that errors can't still occur! [rebased for mainline inclusion] Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

2009-06-15kmemcheck: add mm functionsVegard Nossum7-9/+174
With kmemcheck enabled, the slab allocator needs to do this: 1. Tell kmemcheck to allocate the shadow memory which stores the status of each byte in the allocation proper, e.g. whether it is initialized or uninitialized. 2. Tell kmemcheck which parts of memory that should be marked uninitialized. There are actually a few more states, such as "not yet allocated" and "recently freed". If a slab cache is set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, it will never return memory that can take page faults because of kmemcheck. If a slab cache is NOT set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, callers can still request memory with the __GFP_NOTRACK flag. This does not prevent the page faults from occuring, however, but marks the object in question as being initialized so that no warnings will ever be produced for this object. In addition to (and in contrast to) __GFP_NOTRACK, the __GFP_NOTRACK_FALSE_POSITIVE flag indicates that the allocation should not be tracked _because_ it would produce a false positive. Their values are identical, but need not be so in the future (for example, we could now enable/disable false positives with a config option).

2009-06-15x86: add hooks for kmemcheckVegard Nossum8-5/+66
The hooks that we modify are: - Page fault handler (to handle kmemcheck faults) - Debug exception handler (to hide pages after single-stepping the instruction that caused the page fault) Also redefine memset() to use the optimized version if kmemcheck is enabled. (Thanks to Pekka Enberg for minimizing the impact on the page fault handler.) As kmemcheck doesn't handle MMX/SSE instructions (yet), we also disable the optimized xor code, and rely instead on the generic C implementation in order to avoid false-positive warnings.
