objtool: Prevent GCC from merging annotate_unreachable(), take 2

2017-11-04T14:03:39+00:00

This fixes the following warning with GCC 4.6: mm/migrate.o: warning: objtool: migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page()+0x71: unreachable instruction The problem is that the compiler merged identical annotate_unreachable() inline asm blocks, resulting in a missing 'unreachable' annotation. This problem happened before, and was partially fixed with: 3d1e236022cc ("objtool: Prevent GCC from merging annotate_unreachable()") That commit tried to ensure that each instance of the annotate_unreachable() inline asm statement has a unique label. It used the __LINE__ macro to generate the label number. However, even the line number isn't necessarily unique when used in an inline function with multiple callers (in this case, __alloc_pages_node()'s use of VM_BUG_ON).

tools/headers: Synchronize kernel ABI headers

2017-11-04T08:27:46+00:00

After the SPDX license tags were added a number of tooling headers got out of sync with their kernel variants, generating lots of build warnings. Sync them: - tools/arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h, tools/arch/x86/include/asm/required-features.h, tools/include/linux/hash.h: Remove the SPDX tag where the kernel version does not have it. - tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/__fls.h, tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/arch_hweight.h, tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/const_hweight.h, tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/fls.h, tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/fls64.h, tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/ioctls.h, tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h, tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/sched.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/vhost.h, tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h: Add the SPDX tag of the respective kernel header. - tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf_common.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/fcntl.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/hw_breakpoint.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/mman.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/stat.h, Change the tag to the kernel header version: -/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */ +/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note */ Also sync other header details: - include/uapi/sound/asound.h: Fix pointless end of line whitespace noise the header grew in this cycle. - tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S: Sync the code and add tools/include/asm/export.h with dummy wrappers to support building the kernel side code in a tooling header environment. - tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman.h, tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h: Sync other details that don't impact tooling's use of the ABIs.

mm, swap: fix race between swap count continuation operations

2017-11-03T14:39:19+00:00

One page may store a set of entries of the sis->swap_map (swap_info_struct->swap_map) in multiple swap clusters. If some of the entries has sis->swap_map[offset] > SWAP_MAP_MAX, multiple pages will be used to store the set of entries of the sis->swap_map. And the pages are linked with page->lru. This is called swap count continuation. To access the pages which store the set of entries of the sis->swap_map simultaneously, previously, sis->lock is used. But to improve the scalability of __swap_duplicate(), swap cluster lock may be used in swap_count_continued() now. This may race with add_swap_count_continuation() which operates on a nearby swap cluster, in which the sis->swap_map entries are stored in the same page. The race can cause wrong swap count in practice, thus cause unfreeable swap entries or software lockup, etc. To fix the race, a new spin lock called cont_lock is added to struct swap_info_struct to protect the swap count continuation page list. This is a lock at the swap device level, so the scalability isn't very well. But it is still much better than the original sis->lock, because it is only acquired/released when swap count continuation is used. Which is considered rare in practice. If it turns out that the scalability becomes an issue for some workloads, we can split the lock into some more fine grained locks.

stmmac: use of_property_read_u32 instead of read_u8

2017-11-03T05:15:06+00:00

Numbers in DT are stored in “cells” which are 32-bits in size. of_property_read_u8 does not work properly because of endianness problem. This causes it to always return 0 with little-endian architectures. Fix it by using of_property_read_u32() OF API. Signed-off-by: Bhadram Varka Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net_sched: hold netns refcnt for each action

2017-11-03T01:30:38+00:00

TC actions have been destroyed asynchronously for a long time, previously in a RCU callback and now in a workqueue. If we don't hold a refcnt for its netns, we could use the per netns data structure, struct tcf_idrinfo, after it has been freed by netns workqueue. Hold refcnt to ensure netns destroy happens after all actions are gone.

net_sched: acquire RTNL in tc_action_net_exit()

2017-11-03T01:30:38+00:00

I forgot to acquire RTNL in tc_action_net_exit() which leads that action ops->cleanup() is not always called with RTNL. This usually is not a big deal because this function is called after all netns refcnt are gone, but given RTNL protects more than just actions, add it for safety and consistency. Also add an assertion to catch other potential bugs.

Merge tag 'spdx_identifiers-4.14-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2017-11-02T17:04:46+00:00

Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH: "License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.
