With this, we finally get to the promised end result: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 2018-02-11T22:34:03+00:00 Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org 2018-02-11T22:34:03+00:00 urn:sha1:a9a08845e9acbd224e4ee466f5c1275ed50054e8 This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL* variables as described by Al, done by this script: for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done with de-mangling cleanups yet to come. NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done.

After this series, the kernel is ready for running for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done as a for bulk search-and-replace. After that, the kernel is ready to apply the patch to unify {de,}mangle_poll(), and then get rid of kernel-side POLL... uses entirely, and we should be all done with that stuff. Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can use EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to what is currently kernel-side POLL...). After the preparations (in this series) switch to returning EPOLL... from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical and kernel-side POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side POLL... and unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for unified {de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step. After that we will have: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly)" * 'work.poll2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: annotate ep_scan_ready_list() ep_send_events_proc(): return result via esed->res preparation to switching ->poll() to returning EPOLL... add EPOLLNVAL, annotate EPOLL... and event_poll->event use linux/poll.h instead of asm/poll.h xen: fix poll misannotation smc: missing poll annotations 2018-02-10T21:16:35+00:00 Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org 2018-02-10T21:16:35+00:00 urn:sha1:15303ba5d1cd9b28d03a980456c0978c0ea3b208 Pull KVM updates from Radim Krčmář: "ARM: - icache invalidation optimizations, improving VM startup time - support for forwarded level-triggered interrupts, improving performance for timers and passthrough platform devices - a small fix for power-management notifiers, and some cosmetic changes PPC: - add MMIO emulation for vector loads and stores - allow HPT guests to run on a radix host on POWER9 v2.2 CPUs without requiring the complex thread synchronization of older CPU versions - improve the handling of escalation interrupts with the XIVE interrupt controller - support decrement register migration - various cleanups and bugfixes. s390: - Cornelia Huck passed maintainership to Janosch Frank - exitless interrupts for emulated devices - cleanup of cpuflag handling - kvm_stat counter improvements - VSIE improvements - mm cleanup x86: - hypervisor part of SEV - UMIP, RDPID, and MSR_SMI_COUNT emulation - paravirtualized TLB shootdown using the new KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED bit - allow guests to see TOPOEXT, GFNI, VAES, VPCLMULQDQ, and more AVX512 features - show vcpu id in its anonymous inode name - many fixes and cleanups - per-VCPU MSR bitmaps (already merged through x86/pti branch) - stable KVM clock when nesting on Hyper-V (merged through x86/hyperv)" * tag 'kvm-4.16-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (197 commits) KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add MMIO emulation for VMX instructions KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Branch inside feature section KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make HPT resizing work on POWER9 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix handling of secondary HPTEG in HPT resizing code KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Fix broken select due to misspelling KVM: x86: don't forget vcpu_put() in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs() KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Fix svcpu copying with preemption enabled KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Drop locks before reading guest memory kvm: x86: remove efer_reload entry in kvm_vcpu_stat KVM: x86: AMD Processor Topology Information x86/kvm/vmx: do not use vm-exit instruction length for fast MMIO when running nested kvm: embed vcpu id to dentry of vcpu anon inode kvm: Map PFN-type memory regions as writable (if possible) x86/kvm: Make it compile on 32bit and with HYPYERVISOR_GUEST=n KVM: arm/arm64: Fixup userspace irqchip static key optimization KVM: arm/arm64: Fix userspace_irqchip_in_use counting KVM: arm/arm64: Fix incorrect timer_is_pending logic MAINTAINERS: update KVM/s390 maintainers MAINTAINERS: add Halil as additional vfio-ccw maintainer MAINTAINERS: add David as a reviewer for KVM/s390 ... 2018-02-09T23:34:18+00:00 Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org 2018-02-09T23:34:18+00:00 urn:sha1:c839682c719f0e3dc851951c9e2eeb8a41cd9609 Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Make allocations less aggressive in x_tables, from Minchal Hocko. 2) Fix netfilter flowtable Kconfig deps, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 3) Fix connection loss problems in rtlwifi, from Larry Finger. 4) Correct DRAM dump length for some chips in ath10k driver, from Yu Wang. 5) Fix ABORT handling in rxrpc, from David Howells. 6) Add SPDX tags to Sun networking drivers, from Shannon Nelson. 7) Some ipv6 onlink handling fixes, from David Ahern. 8) Netem packet scheduler interval calcualtion fix from Md.
