Qian Cai 7878c231da slab: remove /proc/slab_allocators
It turned out that DEBUG_SLAB_LEAK is still broken even after recent
recue efforts that when there is a large number of objects like
kmemleak_object which is normal on a debug kernel,

  # grep kmemleak /proc/slabinfo
  kmemleak_object   2243606 3436210 ...

reading /proc/slab_allocators could easily loop forever while processing
the kmemleak_object cache and any additional freeing or allocating
objects will trigger a reprocessing. To make a situation worse,
soft-lockups could easily happen in this sitatuion which will call
printk() to allocate more kmemleak objects to guarantee an infinite
loop.

Also, since it seems no one had noticed when it was totally broken
more than 2-year ago - see the commit fcf88917dd ("slab: fix a crash
by reading /proc/slab_allocators"), probably nobody cares about it
anymore due to the decline of the SLAB. Just remove it entirely.

Eric Sandeen 2ea622b887 tools/testing/selftests/sysctl/sysctl.sh: add proc_do_large_bitmap() test case
The kernel has only two users of proc_do_large_bitmap(), the kernel CPU
watchdog, and the ip_local_reserved_ports.  Refer to watchdog_cpumask
and ip_local_reserved_ports in Documentation for further details on
these.  When you input a large buffer into these, when it is larger than
PAGE_SIZE- 1, the input data gets misparsed, and the user get
incorrectly informed that the desired input value was set.  This commit
implements a test which mimics and exploits that use case, it uses a
bitmap size, as in the watchdog case.  The bitmap is used to test the
bitmap proc handler, proc_do_large_bitmap().

The next commit fixes this issue.

Sinan Kaya c66d7a27b7 init: introduce DEBUG_MISC option
Patch series "init: Do not select DEBUG_KERNEL by default", v5.

CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL has been designed to just enable Kconfig options.
Kernel code generatoin should not depend on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL.

Proposed alternative plan: let's add a new symbol, something like
DEBUG_MISC ("Miscellaneous debug code that should be under a more
specific debug option but isn't"), make it depend on DEBUG_KERNEL and be
"default DEBUG_KERNEL" but allow itself to be turned off, and then
mechanically change the small handful of "#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL" to
"#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_MISC".

This patch (of 5):

Introduce DEBUG_MISC ("Miscellaneous debug code that should be under a
more specific debug option but isn't"), make it depend on DEBUG_KERNEL
and be "default DEBUG_KERNEL" but allow itself to be turned off, and
then mechanically change the small handful of "#ifdef
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL" to "#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_MISC".

Yury Norov 281327c99b lib: make bitmap_parselist_user() a wrapper on bitmap_parselist()
Patch series "lib: rework bitmap_parselist and tests", v5.

bitmap_parselist has been evolved from a pretty simple idea for long and
now lacks for refactoring.  It is not structured, has nested loops and a
set of opaque-named variables.

Things are more complicated because bitmap_parselist() is a part of user
interface, and its behavior should not change.

In this patchset
 - bitmap_parselist_user() made a wrapper on bitmap_parselist();
 - bitmap_parselist() reworked (patch 2);
 - time measurement in test_bitmap_parselist switched to ktime_get
   (patch 3);
 - new tests introduced (patch 4), and
 - bitmap_parselist_user() testing enabled with the same testset as
   bitmap_parselist() (patch 5).

This patch (of 5):

Currently we parse user data byte after byte which leads to
overcomplification of parsing algorithm.  The only user of
bitmap_parselist_user() is not performance-critical, and so we can
duplicate user data to kernel buffer and simply call bitmap_parselist().
This rework lets us unify and simplify bitmap_parselist() and
bitmap_parselist_user(), which is done in the following patch.

George Spelvin b5c56e0cdd lib/list_sort: optimize number of calls to comparison function
CONFIG_RETPOLINE has severely degraded indirect function call
performance, so it's worth putting some effort into reducing the number
of times cmp() is called.

This patch avoids badly unbalanced merges on unlucky input sizes.  It
slightly increases the code size, but saves an average of 0.2*n calls to
cmp().

x86-64 code size 739 -> 803 bytes (+64)

Unfortunately, there's not a lot of low-hanging fruit in a merge sort;
it already performs only n*log2(n) - K*n + O(1) compares.  The leading
coefficient is already at the theoretical limit (log2(n!) corresponds to
K=1.4427), so we're fighting over the linear term, and the best
mergesort can do is K=1.2645, achieved when n is a power of 2.

The differences between mergesort variants appear when n is *not* a
power of 2; K is a function of the fractional part of log2(n).  Top-down
mergesort does best of all, achieving a minimum K=1.2408, and an average
(over all sizes) K=1.248.  However, that requires knowing the number of
entries to be sorted ahead of time, and making a full pass over the
input to count it conflicts with a second performance goal, which is
cache blocking.

Obviously, we have to read the entire list into L1 cache at some point,
and performance is best if it fits.  But if it doesn't fit, each full
pass over the input causes a cache miss per element, which is
undesirable.

While textbooks explain bottom-up mergesort as a succession of merging
passes, practical implementations do merging in depth-first order: as
soon as two lists of the same size are available, they are merged.  This
allows as many merge passes as possible to fit into L1; only the final
few merges force cache misses.

This cache-friendly depth-first merge order depends on us merging the
beginning of the input as much as possible before we've even seen the
end of the input (and thus know its size).

The simple eager merge pattern causes bad performance when n is just
over a power of 2.  If n=1028, the final merge is between 1024- and
4-element lists, which is wasteful of comparisons.  (This is actually
worse on average than n=1025, because a 1204:1 merge will, on average,
end after 512 compares, while 1024:4 will walk 4/5 of the list.)

Because of this, bottom-up mergesort achieves K < 0.5 for such sizes,
and has an average (over all sizes) K of around 1.  (My experiments show
K=1.01, while theory predicts K=0.965.)

There are "worst-case optimal" variants of bottom-up mergesort which
avoid this bad performance, but the algorithms given in the literature,
such as queue-mergesort and boustrodephonic mergesort, depend on the
breadth-first multi-pass structure that we are trying to avoid.

This implementation is as eager as possible while ensuring that all
merge passes are at worst 1:2 unbalanced.  This achieves the same
average K=1.207 as queue-mergesort, which is 0.2*n better then
bottom-up, and only 0.04*n behind top-down mergesort.

Specifically, defers merging two lists of size 2^k until it is known
that there are 2^k additional inputs following.  This ensures that the
final uneven merges triggered by reaching the end of the input will be
at worst 2:1.  This will avoid cache misses as long as 3*2^k elements
fit into the cache.

(I confess to being more than a little bit proud of how clean this code
turned out.  It took a lot of thinking, but the resultant inner loop is
very simple and efficient.)

George Spelvin 043b3f7b63 lib/list_sort: simplify and remove MAX_LIST_LENGTH_BITS
Rather than a fixed-size array of pending sorted runs, use the ->prev
links to keep track of things.  This reduces stack usage, eliminates
some ugly overflow handling, and reduces the code size.

Also:
* merge() no longer needs to handle NULL inputs, so simplify.
* The same applies to merge_and_restore_back_links(), which is renamed
  to the less ponderous merge_final().  (It's a static helper function,
  so we don't need a super-descriptive name; comments will do.)
* Document the actual return value requirements on the (*cmp)()
  function; some callers are already using this feature.

x86-64 code size 1086 -> 739 bytes (-347)

(Yes, I see checkpatch complaining about no space after comma in
"__attribute__((nonnull(2,3,4,5)))".  Checkpatch is wrong.)

George Spelvin 8fb583c425 lib/sort: avoid indirect calls to built-in swap
Similar to what's being done in the net code, this takes advantage of
the fact that most invocations use only a few common swap functions, and
replaces indirect calls to them with (highly predictable) conditional
branches.  (The downside, of course, is that if you *do* use a custom
swap function, there are a few extra predicted branches on the code
path.)

This actually *shrinks* the x86-64 code, because it inlines the various
swap functions inside do_swap, eliding function prologues & epilogues.

George Spelvin 22a241ccb2 lib/sort: use more efficient bottom-up heapsort variant
This uses fewer comparisons than the previous code (approaching half as
many for large random inputs), but produces identical results; it
actually performs the exact same series of swap operations.

Specifically, it reduces the average number of compares from
  2*n*log2(n) - 3*n + o(n)
to
    n*log2(n) + 0.37*n + o(n).

This is still 1.63*n worse than glibc qsort() which manages n*log2(n) -
1.26*n, but at least the leading coefficient is correct.

Standard heapsort, when sifting down, performs two comparisons per
level: one to find the greater child, and a second to see if the current
node should be exchanged with that child.

Bottom-up heapsort observes that it's better to postpone the second
comparison and search for the leaf where -infinity would be sent to,
then search back *up* for the current node's destination.

Since sifting down usually proceeds to the leaf level (that's where half
the nodes are), this does O(1) second comparisons rather than log2(n).
That saves a lot of (expensive since Spectre) indirect function calls.

The one time it's worse than the previous code is if there are large
numbers of duplicate keys, when the top-down algorithm is O(n) and
bottom-up is O(n log n).  For distinct keys, it's provably always
better, doing 1.5*n*log2(n) + O(n) in the worst case.

(The code is not significantly more complex.  This patch also merges the
heap-building and -extracting sift-down loops, resulting in a net code
size savings.)

x86-64 code size 885 -> 767 bytes (-118)

(I see the checkpatch complaint about "else if (n -= size)".  The
alternative is significantly uglier.)

George Spelvin 37d0ec34d1 lib/sort: make swap functions more generic
Patch series "lib/sort & lib/list_sort: faster and smaller", v2.

Because CONFIG_RETPOLINE has made indirect calls much more expensive, I
thought I'd try to reduce the number made by the library sort functions.

The first three patches apply to lib/sort.c.

Patch #1 is a simple optimization.  The built-in swap has special cases
for aligned 4- and 8-byte objects.  But those are almost never used;
most calls to sort() work on larger structures, which fall back to the
byte-at-a-time loop.  This generalizes them to aligned *multiples* of 4
and 8 bytes.  (If nothing else, it saves an awful lot of energy by not
thrashing the store buffers as much.)

Patch #2 grabs a juicy piece of low-hanging fruit.  I agree that nice
simple solid heapsort is preferable to more complex algorithms (sorry,
Andrey), but it's possible to implement heapsort with far fewer
comparisons (50% asymptotically, 25-40% reduction for realistic sizes)
than the way it's been done up to now.  And with some care, the code
ends up smaller, as well.  This is the "big win" patch.

Patch #3 adds the same sort of indirect call bypass that has been added
to the net code of late.  The great majority of the callers use the
builtin swap functions, so replace the indirect call to sort_func with a
(highly preditable) series of if() statements.  Rather surprisingly,
this decreased code size, as the swap functions were inlined and their
prologue & epilogue code eliminated.

lib/list_sort.c is a bit trickier, as merge sort is already close to
optimal, and we don't want to introduce triumphs of theory over
practicality like the Ford-Johnson merge-insertion sort.

Patch #4, without changing the algorithm, chops 32% off the code size
and removes the part[MAX_LIST_LENGTH+1] pointer array (and the
corresponding upper limit on efficiently sortable input size).

Patch #5 improves the algorithm.  The previous code is already optimal
for power-of-two (or slightly smaller) size inputs, but when the input
size is just over a power of 2, there's a very unbalanced final merge.

There are, in the literature, several algorithms which solve this, but
they all depend on the "breadth-first" merge order which was replaced by
commit 835cc0c847 with a more cache-friendly "depth-first" order.
Some hard thinking came up with a depth-first algorithm which defers
merges as little as possible while avoiding bad merges.  This saves
0.2*n compares, averaged over all sizes.

The code size increase is minimal (64 bytes on x86-64, reducing the net
savings to 26%), but the comments expanded significantly to document the
clever algorithm.

TESTING NOTES: I have some ugly user-space benchmarking code which I
used for testing before moving this code into the kernel.  Shout if you
want a copy.

I'm running this code right now, with CONFIG_TEST_SORT and
CONFIG_TEST_LIST_SORT, but I confess I haven't rebooted since the last
round of minor edits to quell checkpatch.  I figure there will be at
least one round of comments and final testing.

This patch (of 5):

Rather than having special-case swap functions for 4- and 8-byte
objects, special-case aligned multiples of 4 or 8 bytes.  This speeds up
most users of sort() by avoiding fallback to the byte copy loop.

Despite what ca96ab859a ("lib/sort: Add 64 bit swap function") claims,
very few users of sort() sort pointers (or pointer-sized objects); most
sort structures containing at least two words.  (E.g.
drivers/acpi/fan.c:acpi_fan_get_fps() sorts an array of 40-byte struct
acpi_fan_fps.)

The functions also got renamed to reflect the fact that they support
multiple words.  In the great tradition of bikeshedding, the names were
by far the most contentious issue during review of this patch series.

x86-64 code size 872 -> 886 bytes (+14)

This is a lot more appropriate than PI_LIST, which in the kernel one
would assume that it has to do with priority-inheritance; which is not
-- furthermore futexes make use of plists so this can be even more
confusing, albeit the debug nature of the config option.

Rasmus Villemoes 5f239f655a lib/bitmap.c: remove unused EXPORT_SYMBOLs
AFAICT, there have never been any callers of these functions outside
mm/mempolicy.c (via their nodemask.h wrappers).  In particular, no
modular code has ever used them, and given their somewhat exotic
semantics, I highly doubt they will ever find such a use.  In any case,
no need to export them currently.

Masahiro Yamada 9012d01166 compiler: allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
Commit 60a3cdd063 ("x86: add optimized inlining") introduced
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, but it has been available only for x86.

The idea is obviously arch-agnostic.  This commit moves the config entry
from arch/x86/Kconfig.debug to lib/Kconfig.debug so that all
architectures can benefit from it.

This can make a huge difference in kernel image size especially when
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is enabled.

For example, I got 3.5% smaller arm64 kernel for v5.1-rc1.

  dec       file
  18983424  arch/arm64/boot/Image.before
  18321920  arch/arm64/boot/Image.after

This also slightly improves the "Kernel hacking" Kconfig menu as
e61aca5158 ("Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave Hansen') suggested;
this config option would be a good fit in the "compiler option" menu.

Ira Weiny 73b0140bf0 mm/gup: change GUP fast to use flags rather than a write 'bool'
To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the
singular write parameter to be gup_flags.

This patch does not change any functionality.  New functionality will
follow in subsequent patches.

Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they
already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter.

NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast()
arguments to ensure that callers were converted.  This breaks the current
GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final
parameter.  So the suggestion was rejected.

__HAVE_ARCH_SW_HWEIGHT is not necessary either.

Petr Mladek 2ac5a3bf70 vsprintf: Do not break early boot with probing addresses
The commit 3e5903eb9c ("vsprintf: Prevent crash when dereferencing
invalid pointers") broke boot on several architectures. The common
pattern is that probe_kernel_read() is not working during early
boot because userspace access framework is not ready.

It is a generic problem. We have to avoid any complex external
functions in vsprintf() code, especially in the common path.
They might break printk() easily and are hard to debug.

Replace probe_kernel_read() with some simple checks for obvious
problems.

Details:

1. Report on Power:

Kernel crashes very early during boot with with CONFIG_PPC_KUAP and
CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECK_DEBUG

The problem is the combination of some new code called via printk(),
check_pointer() which calls probe_kernel_read(). That then calls
allow_user_access() (PPC_KUAP) and that uses mmu_has_feature() too early
(before we've patched features). With the JUMP_LABEL debug enabled that
causes us to call printk() & dump_stack() and we end up recursing and
overflowing the stack.

Because it happens so early you don't get any output, just an apparently
dead system.

The stack trace (which you don't see) is something like:

  ...
  dump_stack+0xdc
  probe_kernel_read+0x1a4
  check_pointer+0x58
  string+0x3c

2. Report on s390:

vsnprintf invocations, are broken on s390. For example, the early boot
output now looks like this where the first (efault) should be
the linux_banner:

[    0.099985] (efault)
[    0.099985] setup: Linux is running as a z/VM guest operating system in 64-bit mode
[    0.100066] setup: The maximum memory size is 8192MB
[    0.100070] cma: Reserved 4 MiB at (efault)
[    0.100100] numa: NUMA mode: (efault)

The reason for this, is that the code assumes that
probe_kernel_address() works very early. This however is not true on
at least s390. Uaccess on KERNEL_DS works only after page tables have
been setup on s390, which happens with setup_arch()->paging_init().

Any probe_kernel_address() invocation before that will return -EFAULT.

Fixes: 3e5903eb9c ("vsprintf: Prevent crash when dereferencing invalid pointers")

Linus Torvalds b4b52b881c Wimplicit-fallthrough patches for 5.2-rc1
Hi Linus,
 
 This is my very first pull-request.  I've been working full-time as
 a kernel developer for more than two years now. During this time I've
 been fixing bugs reported by Coverity all over the tree and, as part
 of my work, I'm also contributing to the KSPP. My work in the kernel
 community has been supervised by Greg KH and Kees Cook.
 
 OK. So, after the quick introduction above, please, pull the following
 patches that mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through.
 These patches are part of the ongoing efforts to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
 They have been ignored for a long time (most of them more than 3 months,
 even after pinging multiple times), which is the reason why I've created
 this tree. Most of them have been baking in linux-next for a whole development
 cycle. And with Stephen Rothwell's help, we've had linux-next nag-emails
 going out for newly introduced code that triggers -Wimplicit-fallthrough
 to avoid gaining more of these cases while we work to remove the ones
 that are already present.
 
 I'm happy to let you know that we are getting close to completing this
 work.  Currently, there are only 32 of 2311 of these cases left to be
 addressed in linux-next.  I'm auditing every case; I take a look into
 the code and analyze it in order to determine if I'm dealing with an
 actual bug or a false positive, as explained here:
 
 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c2fad584-1705-a5f2-d63c-824e9b96cf50@embeddedor.com/
 
 While working on this, I've found and fixed the following missing
 break/return bugs, some of them introduced more than 5 years ago:
 
 84242b82d8
 7850b51b6c
 5e420fe635
 09186e5034
 b5be853181

 4e57562b48
 60747828ea
 c5b974bee9
 cc44ba9116
 2c930e3d0a
 
 Once this work is finish, we'll be able to universally enable
 "-Wimplicit-fallthrough" to avoid any of these kinds of bugs from
 entering the kernel again.
 
 Thanks

Merge tag 'Wimplicit-fallthrough-5.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gustavoars/linux

Pull Wimplicit-fallthrough updates from Gustavo A. R. Silva:
 "Mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through.

  This is part of the ongoing efforts to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough.

  Most of them have been baking in linux-next for a whole development
  cycle. And with Stephen Rothwell's help, we've had linux-next
  nag-emails going out for newly introduced code that triggers
  -Wimplicit-fallthrough to avoid gaining more of these cases while we
  work to remove the ones that are already present.

  We are getting close to completing this work. Currently, there are
  only 32 of 2311 of these cases left to be addressed in linux-next. I'm
  auditing every case; I take a look into the code and analyze it in
  order to determine if I'm dealing with an actual bug or a false
  positive, as explained here:

      https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c2fad584-1705-a5f2-d63c-824e9b96cf50@embeddedor.com/

  While working on this, I've found and fixed the several missing
  break/return bugs, some of them introduced more than 5 years ago.

  Once this work is finished, we'll be able to universally enable
  "-Wimplicit-fallthrough" to avoid any of these kinds of bugs from
  entering the kernel again"

Linus Torvalds 2c6a392cdd Merge branch 'core-stacktrace-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull stack trace updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "So Thomas looked at the stacktrace code recently and noticed a few
  weirdnesses, and we all know how such stories of crummy kernel code
  meeting German engineering perfection end: a 45-patch series to clean
  it all up! :-)

  Here's the changes in Thomas's words:

   'Struct stack_trace is a sinkhole for input and output parameters
    which is largely pointless for most usage sites. In fact if embedded
    into other data structures it creates indirections and extra storage
    overhead for no benefit.

    Looking at all usage sites makes it clear that they just require an
    interface which is based on a storage array. That array is either on
    stack, global or embedded into some other data structure.

    Some of the stack depot usage sites are outright wrong, but
    fortunately the wrongness just causes more stack being used for
    nothing and does not have functional impact.

    Another oddity is the inconsistent termination of the stack trace
    with ULONG_MAX. It's pointless as the number of entries is what
    determines the length of the stored trace. In fact quite some call
    sites remove the ULONG_MAX marker afterwards with or without nasty
    comments about it. Not all architectures do that and those which do,
    do it inconsistenly either conditional on nr_entries == 0 or
    unconditionally.

    The following series cleans that up by:

      1) Removing the ULONG_MAX termination in the architecture code

      2) Removing the ULONG_MAX fixups at the call sites

      3) Providing plain storage array based interfaces for stacktrace
         and stackdepot.

      4) Cleaning up the mess at the callsites including some related
         cleanups.

      5) Removing the struct stack_trace based interfaces

    This is not changing the struct stack_trace interfaces at the
    architecture level, but it removes the exposure to the generic
    code'"

Linus Torvalds 6ec62961e6 Merge branch 'core-objtool-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This is a series from Peter Zijlstra that adds x86 build-time uaccess
  validation of SMAP to objtool, which will detect and warn about the
  following uaccess API usage bugs and weirdnesses:

   - call to %s() with UACCESS enabled
   - return with UACCESS enabled
   - return with UACCESS disabled from a UACCESS-safe function
   - recursive UACCESS enable
   - redundant UACCESS disable
   - UACCESS-safe disables UACCESS

  As it turns out not leaking uaccess permissions outside the intended
  uaccess functionality is hard when the interfaces are complex and when
  such bugs are mostly dormant.

  As a bonus we now also check the DF flag. We had at least one
  high-profile bug in that area in the early days of Linux, and the
  checking is fairly simple. The checks performed and warnings emitted
  are:

   - call to %s() with DF set
   - return with DF set
   - return with modified stack frame
   - recursive STD
   - redundant CLD

  It's all x86-only for now, but later on this can also be used for PAN
  on ARM and objtool is fairly cross-platform in principle.

  While all warnings emitted by this new checking facility that got
  reported to us were fixed, there might be GCC version dependent
  warnings that were not reported yet - which we'll address, should they
  trigger.

  The warnings are non-fatal build warnings"

Andrey Ryabinin f0996bc297 ubsan: Fix nasty -Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch GCC-9 warnings
Building lib/ubsan.c with gcc-9 results in a ton of nasty warnings like
this one:

    lib/ubsan.c warning: conflicting types for built-in function
         ‘__ubsan_handle_negate_overflow’; expected ‘void(void *, void *)’ [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch]

The kernel's declarations of __ubsan_handle_*() often uses 'unsigned

hence the mismatch.

Fix this by using 'void *' to match GCC's declarations.
