Dynamic debug recently added support for netdev_printk. It uses
__netdev_printk() to support this functionality. However, when CONFIG_NET
is not set, we get the following error:
lib/built-in.o: In function `__dynamic_netdev_dbg':
(.text+0x9fda): undefined reference to `__netdev_printk'
Fix this by making the call to netdev_printk() contingent upon CONFIG_NET.
We could have fixed this by defining netdev_printk() to a 'no-op' in the
!CONFIG_NET case. However, this is not consistent with how the networking
layer uses netdev_printk. For example, CONFIG_NET is not set,
netdev_printk() does not have a 'no-op' definition defined.

We were using KERN_CONT to combine messages with their prefix. However,
KERN_CONT is not smp safe, in the sense that it can interleave messages.
This interleaving can result in printks coming out at the wrong loglevel.
With the high frequency of printks that dynamic debug can produce this is
not desirable.
So make dynamic_emit_prefix() fill a char buf[64] instead of doing a
printk directly. If we enable printing out of function, module, line, or
pid info, they are placed in this 64 byte buffer. In my testing 64 bytes
was enough size to fulfill all requests. Even if it's not, we can match
up the printk itself to see where it's from, so to me this is no big deal.

This task is preparatory for the migrate_disable() implementation, but
stands on its own and provides a cleanup.
It currently only converts those sites required for task-placement.
Kosaki-san once mentioned replacing cpus_allowed with a proper
cpumask_t instead of the NR_CPUS sized array it currently is, that
would also require something like this.

cpu_relax() stalls the pipeline, therefore, when used in a tight loop
it has the following benefits:
- allows SMT siblings to have a go;
- reduces pressure on the CPU interconnect.
However, cmpxchg loops are unfair and thus have unbounded completion
time, therefore we should avoid getting in such heavily contended
situations where the above benefits make any difference.
A typical cmpxchg loop should not go round more than a handfull of
times at worst, therefore adding extra delays just slows things down.
Since the llist primitives are new, there aren't any bad users yet,
and we should avoid growing them. Heavily contended sites should
generally be better off using the ticket locks for serialization since
they provide bounded completion times (fifo-fair over the cpus).

Extend the llist_add*() functions to return a success indicator, this
allows us in the scheduler code to send an IPI if the queue was empty.
( There's no effect on existing users, because the list_add_xxx() functions
are inline, thus this will be optimized out by the compiler if not used
by callers. )

If in llist_add()/etc. functions the first cmpxchg() call succeeds, it is
not necessary to use cpu_relax() before the cmpxchg(). So cpu_relax() in
a busy loop involving cmpxchg() should go after cmpxchg() instead of before
that.
This patch fixes this for all involved llist functions.

Thumb2 kernels cannot be built with frame pointers, but can use the
ARM_UNWIND feature for unwinding instead. This makes sure that all
features that rely on unwinding includeing CONFIG_LATENCYTOP and
FAULT_INJECTION_STACKTRACE_FILTER do not enable frame pointers
when the unwinder is already selected, and we always build with
the unwinder when we want a thumb2 kernel, to make sure we do not
get the frame pointers instead.
A different option would be to redefine the CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS
option on ARM to mean builing with either frame pointers or
the unwinder, and then select which one to use based on the
CPU architecture or another user option. That would still allow
building thumb2 kernels without the unwinder but would also be
more confusing.

xz_dec_run() could incorrectly return XZ_BUF_ERROR if all of the
following was true:
- The caller knows how many bytes of output to expect and only provides
that much output space.
- When the last output bytes are decoded, the caller-provided input
buffer ends right before the LZMA2 end of payload marker. So LZMA2
won't provide more output anymore, but it won't know it yet and thus
won't return XZ_STREAM_END yet.
- A BCJ filter is in use and it hasn't left any unfiltered bytes in the
temp buffer. This can happen with any BCJ filter, but in practice
it's more likely with filters other than the x86 BCJ.
This fixes <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735408> where
Squashfs thinks that a valid file system is corrupt.
This also fixes a similar bug in single-call mode where the uncompressed
size of a block using BCJ + LZMA2 was 0 bytes and caller provided no
output space. Many empty .xz files don't contain any blocks and thus
don't trigger this bug.
This also tweaks a closely related detail: xz_dec_bcj_run() could call
xz_dec_lzma2_run() to decode into temp buffer when it was known to be
useless. This was harmless although it wasted a minuscule number of CPU
cycles.

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

If there are no builtin users of find_next_bit_le() and
find_next_zero_bit_le(), these functions are not present in the kernel
image, causing m68k allmodconfig to fail with:
ERROR: "find_next_zero_bit_le" [fs/ufs/ufs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "find_next_bit_le" [fs/udf/udf.ko] undefined!
...
This started to happen after commit 171d809df189 ("m68k: merge mmu and
non-mmu bitops.h"), as m68k had its own inline versions before.
commit 63e424c84429 ("arch: remove CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_{NEXT_BIT,
BIT_LE, LAST_BIT}") added find_last_bit.o to obj-y (so it's always
included), but find_next_bit.o to lib-y (so it gets removed by the
linker if there are no builtin users).

Summary:
Users of the pci_dma_sync_single_* api allow users to sync address ranges within
the range of a mapped entry (i.e. you can dma map address X to dma_addr_t A and
then pci_dma_sync_single on dma_addr_t A+1. The dma-debug library however
assume dma syncs will always occur using the base address of a mapped region,
and uses that assumption to find entries in its hash table. Since thats often
(but not always the case), the dma debug library can give us false errors about
missing entries, which are reported as syncing of memory not allocated by the
driver. This was noted in the cxgb3 driver as this error:

if one of listeners cannot handle messages or nobody is
listening at all.
Easily reproducible when a process in system is cloned
with CLONE_NEWNET flag.

Previously, if dynamic debug was enabled netdev_dbg() was using
dynamic_dev_dbg() to print out the underlying msg. Fix this by making
sure netdev_dbg() uses __netdev_printk().

Unlike dynamic_pr_debug, dynamic uses of dev_dbg can not

Add a new function similar to dynamic_pr_debug to

For ChromiumOS, we use SHA-1 to verify the integrity of the root
filesystem. The speed of the kernel sha-1 implementation has a major
impact on our boot performance.
To improve boot performance, we investigated using the heavily optimized
sha-1 implementation used in git. With the git sha-1 implementation, we
see a 11.7% improvement in boot time.
10 reboots, remove slowest/fastest.
Before:
Mean: 6.58 seconds Stdev: 0.14
After (with git sha-1, this patch):
Mean: 5.89 seconds Stdev: 0.07
The other cool thing about the git SHA-1 implementation is that it only
needs 64 bytes of stack for the workspace while the original kernel
implementation needed 320 bytes.

We have already acknowledged that swapoff of a tmpfs file is slower than
it was before conversion to the generic radix_tree: a little slower
there will be acceptable, if the hotter paths are faster.
But it was a shock to find swapoff of a 500MB file 20 times slower on my
laptop, taking 10 minutes; and at that rate it significantly slows down
my testing.
Now, most of that turned out to be overhead from PROVE_LOCKING and
PROVE_RCU: without those it was only 4 times slower than before; and
more realistic tests on other machines don't fare as badly.
I've tried a number of things to improve it, including tagging the swap
entries, then doing lookup by tag: I'd expected that to halve the time,
but in practice it's erratic, and often counter-productive.
The only change I've so far found to make a consistent improvement, is
to short-circuit the way we go back and forth, gang lookup packing
entries into the array supplied, then shmem scanning that array for the
target entry. Scanning in place doubles the speed, so it's now only
twice as slow as before (or three times slower when the PROVEs are on).
So, add radix_tree_locate_item() as an expedient, once-off,
single-caller hack to do the lookup directly in place. #ifdef it on
CONFIG_SHMEM and CONFIG_SWAP, as much to document its limited
applicability as save space in other configurations. And, sadly,
#include sched.h for cond_resched().

A patchset to extend tmpfs to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE by abandoning its
peculiar swap vector, instead keeping a file's swap entries in the same
radix tree as its struct page pointers: thus saving memory, and
simplifying its code and locking.
This patch:
The radix_tree is used by several subsystems for different purposes. A
major use is to store the struct page pointers of a file's pagecache for
memory management. But what if mm wanted to store something other than
page pointers there too?
The low bit of a radix_tree entry is already used to denote an indirect
pointer, for internal use, and the unlikely radix_tree_deref_retry()
case.
Define the next bit as denoting an exceptional entry, and supply inline
functions radix_tree_exception() to return non-0 in either unlikely
case, and radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to return non-0 in the second
case.
If a subsystem already uses radix_tree with that bit set, no problem: it
does not affect internal workings at all, but is defined for the
convenience of those storing well-aligned pointers in the radix_tree.
The radix_tree_gang_lookups have an implicit assumption that the caller
can deduce the offset of each entry returned e.g. by the page->index of
a struct page. But that may not be feasible for some kinds of item to
be stored there.
radix_tree_gang_lookup_slot() allow for an optional indices argument,
output array in which to return those offsets. The same could be added
to other radix_tree_gang_lookups, but for now keep it to the only one
for which we need it.

init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs.
But it can only export it in debugfs root directory.
Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject
data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem.
The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and
export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like
/sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request.
init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request. So this
introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a
directory in the arbitrary directory and replace
init_fault_attr_dentries().

This version of the gen_pool memory allocator supports lockless
operation.
This makes it safe to use in NMI handlers and other special
unblockable contexts that could otherwise deadlock on locks. This is
implemented by using atomic operations and retries on any conflicts.
The disadvantage is that there may be livelocks in extreme cases. For
better scalability, one gen_pool allocator can be used for each CPU.
The lockless operation only works if there is enough memory available.
If new memory is added to the pool a lock has to be still taken. So
any user relying on locklessness has to ensure that sufficient memory
is preallocated.
The basic atomic operation of this allocator is cmpxchg on long. On
architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the
allocator can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the allocator
in NMI handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

Cmpxchg is used to implement adding new entry to the list, deleting
all entries from the list, deleting first entry of the list and some
other operations.
Because this is a single list, so the tail can not be accessed in O(1).
If there are multiple producers and multiple consumers, llist_add can
be used in producers and llist_del_all can be used in consumers. They
can work simultaneously without lock. But llist_del_first can not be
used here. Because llist_del_first depends on list->first->next does
not changed if list->first is not changed during its operation, but
llist_del_first, llist_add, llist_add (or llist_del_all, llist_add,
llist_add) sequence in another consumer may violate that.
If there are multiple producers and one consumer, llist_add can be
used in producers and llist_del_all or llist_del_first can be used in
the consumer.
This can be summarized as follow:
| add | del_first | del_all
add | - | - | -
del_first | | L | L
del_all | | | -
Where "-" stands for no lock is needed, while "L" stands for lock is
needed.
The list entries deleted via llist_del_all can be traversed with
traversing function such as llist_for_each etc. But the list entries
can not be traversed safely before deleted from the list. The order
of deleted entries is from the newest to the oldest added one. If you
want to traverse from the oldest to the newest, you must reverse the
order by yourself before traversing.
The basic atomic operation of this list is cmpxchg on long. On
architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the
list can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the list in NMI
handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.
