      thunderbolt: test: split up test cases in tb_test_credit_alloc_all · 4b93c544
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      
      The tb_test_credit_alloc_all() function had a huge number of
      KUNIT_ASSERT() statements, all of which (though the magic of many many
      layers of inscrutable macros) ended up allocating and initializing
      various test assertion structures on the stack.
      
      Don't do that.  The kernel stack isn't infinite, and we have compiler
      warnings (now errors) for the case where a stack frame grows too large.
      
      Like it did here, by not an inconsiderable margin:
      
         drivers/thunderbolt/test.c: In function ‘tb_test_credit_alloc_all’:
         drivers/thunderbolt/test.c:2367:1: error: the frame size of 4500 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
          2367 | }
               | ^
      
      Solve this similarly to the lib/test_scanf case: split out the tests
      into several smaller functions, each just testing one particular tunnel
      credit allocation.
      
      This makes the i386 allyesconfig build work for me again.

      lib/test_scanf: split up number parsing test routines · ba7b1f86
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      
      It turns out that gcc has real trouble merging all the temporary
      on-stack buffer allocation.  So despite the fact that their lifetimes do
      not overlap, gcc will allocate stack for all of them when they have
      different types.  Which they do in the number scanning test routines.
      
      This is unfortunate in general, but with lots of test-cases in one
      function, it becomes a real problem.  gcc will allocate a huge stack
      frame for no actual good reason.
      
      We have tried to counteract this tendency of gcc not merging stack slots
      (see "-fconserve-stack"), but that has limited effect (and should be on
      by default these days, iirc).
      
      So with all the debug options enabled on an i386 allmodconfig build, we
      end up with overly big stack frames, and the resulting stack frame size
      warnings (now errors):
      
         lib/test_scanf.c: In function ‘numbers_list_field_width_val_width’:
         lib/test_scanf.c:530:1: error: the frame size of 2088 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
           530 | }
               | ^
         lib/test_scanf.c: In function ‘numbers_list_field_width_typemax’:
         lib/test_scanf.c:488:1: error: the frame size of 2568 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
           488 | }
               | ^
         lib/test_scanf.c: In function ‘numbers_list’:
         lib/test_scanf.c:437:1: error: the frame size of 2088 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
           437 | }
               | ^
      
      In this particular case, the reasonably straightforward solution is to
      just split out the test routines into multiple more targeted versions.
      That way we don't have one huge stack, but several smaller ones, and
      they aren't active all at the same time.

      iwl: fix debug printf format strings · 1476ff21
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      
      The variable 'package_size' is an unsigned long, and should be printed
      out using '%lu', not '%zd' (that would be for a size_t).
      
      Yes, on many architectures (including x86-64), 'size_t' is in fact the
      same type as 'long', but that's a fairly random architecture definition,
      and on some platforms 'size_t' is in fact 'int' rather than 'long'.
      
      That is the case on traditional 32-bit x86.  Yes, both types are the
      exact same 32-bit size, and it would all print out perfectly correctly,
      but '%zd' ends up still being wrong.
      
      And we can't make 'package_size' be a 'size_t', because we get the
      actual value using efivar_entry_get() that takes a pointer to an
      'unsigned long'.  So '%lu' it is.
      
      This fixes two of the i386 allmodconfig build warnings (that is now an
      error due to -Werror).

      Enable '-Werror' by default for all kernel builds · 3fe617cc

      ... but make it a config option so that broken environments can disable
      it when required.
      
      We really should always have a clean build, and will disable specific
      over-eager warnings as required, if we can't fix them.  But while I
      fairly religiously enforce that in my own tree, it doesn't get enforced
      by various build robots that don't necessarily report warnings.
      
      So this just makes '-Werror' a default compiler flag, but allows people
      to disable it for their configuration if they have some particular
      issues.
      
      Occasionally, new compiler versions end up enabling new warnings, and it
      can take a while before we have them fixed (or the warnings disabled if
      that is what it takes), so the config option allows for that situation.
      
      Hopefully this will mean that I get fewer pull requests that have new
      warnings that were not noticed by various automation we have in place.
      
      Knock wood.

           denied until the link is effectivel gone (exec, termination,

      Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
       "In this cycle, we've addressed some performance issues such as lock
        contention, misbehaving compress_cache, allowing extent_cache for
        compressed files, and new sysfs to adjust ra_size for fadvise.
      
        In order to diagnose the performance issues quickly, we also added an
        iostat which shows the IO latencies periodically.
      
        On the stability side, we've found two memory leakage cases in the
        error path in compression flow. And, we've also fixed various corner
        cases in fiemap, quota, checkpoint=disable, zstd, and so on.
      
        Enhancements:
         - avoid long checkpoint latency by releasing nat_tree_lock
         - collect and show iostats periodically
         - support extent_cache for compressed files
         - add a sysfs entry to manage ra_size given fadvise(POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL)
         - report f2fs GC status via sysfs
         - add discard_unit=%s in mount option to handle zoned device
      
        Bug fixes:
         - fix two memory leakages when an error happens in the compressed IO flow
         - fix commpress_cache to get the right LBA
         - fix fiemap to deal with compressed case correctly
         - fix wrong EIO returns due to SBI_NEED_FSCK
         - fix missing writes when enabling checkpoint back
         - fix quota deadlock
         - fix zstd level mount option
      
        In addition to the above major updates, we've cleaned up several code
        paths such as dio, unnecessary operations, debugfs/f2fs/status, sanity
        check, and typos"

      loop: reduce the loop_ctl_mutex scope · 1c500ad7
      Tetsuo Handa authored
      syzbot is reporting circular locking problem at __loop_clr_fd() [1], for
      commit a160c615 ("block: add an optional probe callback to
      major_names") is calling the module's probe function with major_names_lock
      held.
      
      Fortunately, since commit 990e7811 ("block: loop: fix deadlock
      between open and remove") stopped holding loop_ctl_mutex in lo_open(),
      current role of loop_ctl_mutex is to serialize access to loop_index_idr
      and loop_add()/loop_remove(); in other words, management of id for IDR.
      To avoid holding loop_ctl_mutex during whole add/remove operation, use
      a bool flag to indicate whether the loop device is ready for use.
      
      loop_unregister_transfer() which is called from cleanup_cryptoloop()
      currently has possibility of use-after-free problem due to lack of
      serialization between kfree() from loop_remove() from loop_control_remove()
      and mutex_lock() from unregister_transfer_cb(). But since lo->lo_encryption
      should be already NULL when this function is called due to module unload,
      and commit 222013f9 ("cryptoloop: add a deprecation warning")
      indicates that we will remove this function shortly, this patch updates
      this function to emit warning instead of checking lo->lo_encryption.
      
      Holding loop_ctl_mutex in loop_exit() is pointless, for all users must
      close /dev/loop-control and /dev/loop$num (in order to drop module's
      refcount to 0) before loop_exit() starts, and nobody can open
      /dev/loop-control or /dev/loop$num afterwards.

      io_uring: io_uring_complete() trace should take an integer · 2fc2a7a6
      Jens Axboe authored
      
      
      It currently takes a long, and while that's normally OK, the io_uring
      limit is an int. Internally in io_uring it's an int, but sometimes it's
      passed as a long. That can yield confusing results where a completions
      seems to generate a huge result:
      
      ou-sqp-1297-1298    [001] ...1   788.056371: io_uring_complete: ring 000000000e98e046, user_data 0x0, result 4294967171, cflags 0
      
      which is due to -ECANCELED being stored in an unsigned, and then passed
      in as a long. Using the right int type, the trace looks correct:
      
      iou-sqp-338-339     [002] ...1    15.633098: io_uring_complete: ring 00000000e0ac60cf, user_data 0x0, result -125, cflags 0

       - Add -s option (strict mode) to merge_config.sh to make it fail when
         any symbol is redefined.
      
       - Show a warning if a different compiler is used for building external
         modules.
      
       - Infer --target from ARCH for CC=clang to let you cross-compile the
         kernel without CROSS_COMPILE.
      
       - Make the integrated assembler default (LLVM_IAS=1) for CC=clang.
      
       - Add <linux/stdarg.h> to the kernel source instead of borrowing
         <stdarg.h> from the compiler.
      
       - Add Nick Desaulniers as a Kbuild reviewer.
      
       - Drop stale cc-option tests.

      mm/madvise: add MADV_WILLNEED to process_madvise() · d5fffc5a
      zhangkui authored
      There is a usecase in Android that an app process's memory is swapped out
      by process_madvise() with MADV_PAGEOUT, such as the memory is swapped to
      zram or a backing device.  When the process is scheduled to running, like
      switch to foreground, multiple page faults may cause the app dropped
      frames.
      
      To reduce the problem, System Management Software can read-ahead memory
      of the process immediately when the app switches to forground.  Calling
      process_madvise() with MADV_WILLNEED can meet this need.
