2009-12-15Subject: Re: [PATCH] strstrip incorrectly marked __must_checkKOSAKI Motohiro
Recently, We marked strstrip() as must_check. because it was frequently misused and it should be checked. However, we found one exception. scsi/ipr.c intentionally ignore return value of strstrip. Because it wishes to keep the whitespace at the beginning. Thus we need to keep with and without checked whitespace trim function. This patch adds a new strim() and changes ipr.c to use it.

2009-12-15tree-wide: convert open calls to remove spaces to skip_spaces() lib functionAndré Goddard Rosa
Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading spaces from strings all over the tree. It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide: text data bss dec hex filename 64688 584 592 65864 10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE) 64641 584 592 65817 10119 (TOTALS-AFTER) Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words, "a char equals zero is never a space".

2009-12-15string: factorize skip_spaces and export it to be generally availableAndré Goddard Rosa
On the following sentence: while (*s && isspace(*s)) s++; If *s == 0, isspace() evaluates to ((_ctype[*s] & 0x20) != 0), which evaluates to ((0x08 & 0x20) != 0) which equals to 0 as well. If *s == 1, we depend on isspace() result anyway. In other words, "a char equals zero is never a space", so remove this check. Also, *s != 0 is most common case (non-null string).

2009-12-15vsprintf: reuse almost identical simple_strtoulX() functionsAndré Goddard Rosa
The difference between simple_strtoul() and simple_strtoull() is just the size of the variable used to keep track of the sum of characters converted to numbers: unsigned long simple_strtoul() {...} unsigned long long simple_strtoull(){...} Both are same size on my Core 2/gcc 4.4.1. Overflow condition is not checked on both functions, so an extremely large string can break these functions so that they don't even notice it. As we do not care for overflowing on these functions, always keep the sum using the larger variable around (unsigned long long) on simple_strtoull() and cast it to (unsigned long) on simple_strtoul(), which then becomes just a wrapper around simple_strtoull().

2009-12-15vsprintf: factorize "(null)" stringAndré Goddard Rosa
This patchset reduces lib/lib.a code size by 482 bytes on my Core 2 with gcc 4.4.1 even considering that it exports a newly defined function skip_spaces() to drivers: text data bss dec hex filename 64867 840 592 66299 102fb (TOTALS-lib.a-BEFORE) 64641 584 592 65817 10119 (TOTALS-lib.a-AFTER) and implements some code tidy up. Besides reducing lib.a size, it converts many in-tree drivers to use the newly defined function, which makes another small reduction on kernel size overall when those drivers are used. This patch: Change "<NULL>" to "(null)", unifying 3 equal strings. glibc also uses "(null)" for the same purpose.

2009-12-15rwsem: fix rwsem_is_locked() bugsAmerigo Wang
rwsem_is_locked() tests ->activity without locks, so we should always keep ->activity consistent. However, the code in __rwsem_do_wake() breaks this rule, it updates ->activity after _all_ readers waken up, this may give some reader a wrong ->activity value, thus cause rwsem_is_locked() behaves wrong. Quote from Andrew: " - we have one or more processes sleeping in down_read(), waiting for access. - we wake one or more processes up without altering ->activity - they start to run and they do rwsem_is_locked(). This incorrectly returns "false", because the waker process is still crunching away in __rwsem_do_wake(). - the waker now alters ->activity, but it was too late. " So we need get a spinlock to protect this. And rwsem_is_locked() should not block, thus we use spin_trylock_irqsave().

2009-12-14locking: Further name space cleanupsThomas Gleixner
The name space hierarchy for the internal lock functions is now a bit backwards. raw_spin* functions map to _spin* which use __spin*, while we would like to have _raw_spin* and __raw_spin*. _raw_spin* is already used by lock debugging, so rename those funtions to do_raw_spin* to free up the _raw_spin* name space.

2009-12-14locking: Implement new raw_spinlockThomas Gleixner
Now that the raw_spin name space is freed up, we can implement raw_spinlock and the related functions which are used to annotate the locks which are not converted to sleeping spinlocks in preempt-rt. A side effect is that only such locks can be used with the low level lock fsunctions which circumvent lockdep. For !rt spin_* functions are mapped to the raw_spin* implementations.

2009-12-12[BKL] add 'might_sleep()' to the outermost lock takerLinus Torvalds
As shown by the previous patch (6698e3472: "tty: Fix BKL taken under a spinlock bug introduced in the BKL split") the BKL removal is prone to some subtle issues, where removing the BKL in one place may in fact make a previously nested BKL call the new outer call, and then prone to nasty deadlocks with other spinlocks. In general, we should never take the BKL while we're holding a spinlock, so let's just add a "might_sleep()" to it (even though the BKL doesn't technically sleep - at least not yet), and we'll get nice warnings the next time this kind of problem happens during BKL removal.

2009-12-03rcu: Make RCU's CPU-stall detector be defaultPaul E. McKenney
The RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR costs almost nothing and has located some bugs that might otherwise have been difficult to track down. Make it be default for the TREE RCU implementations.

2009-11-19FS-Cache: Use radix tree preload correctly in tracking of pages to be storedDavid Howells
__fscache_write_page() attempts to load the radix tree preallocation pool for the CPU it is on before calling radix_tree_insert(), as the insertion must be done inside a pair of spinlocks. Use of the preallocation pool, however, is contingent on the radix tree being initialised without __GFP_WAIT specified. __fscache_acquire_cookie() was passing GFP_NOFS to INIT_RADIX_TREE() - but that includes __GFP_WAIT. The solution is to AND out __GFP_WAIT. Additionally, the banner comment to radix_tree_preload() is altered to make note of this prerequisite. Possibly there should be a WARN_ON() too. Without this fix, I have seen the following recursive deadlock caused by radix_tree_insert() attempting to allocate memory inside the spinlocked region, which resulted in FS-Cache being called back into to release memory - which required the spinlock already held. ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.32-rc6-cachefs #24 --------------------------------------------- nfsiod/7916 is trying to acquire lock: (&cookie->lock){+.+.-.}, at: [<ffffffffa0076872>] __fscache_uncache_page+0xdb/0x160 [fscache] but task is already holding lock: (&cookie->lock){+.+.-.}, at: [<ffffffffa0076acc>] __fscache_write_page+0x15c/0x3f3 [fscache] other info that might help us debug this: 5 locks held by nfsiod/7916: #0: (nfsiod){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81048290>] worker_thread+0x19a/0x2e2 #1: (&task->u.tk_work#2){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81048290>] worker_thread+0x19a/0x2e2 #2: (&cookie->lock){+.+.-.}, at: [<ffffffffa0076acc>] __fscache_write_page+0x15c/0x3f3 [fscache] #3: (&object->lock#2){+.+.-.}, at: [<ffffffffa0076b07>] __fscache_write_page+0x197/0x3f3 [fscache] #4: (&cookie->stores_lock){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa0076b0f>] __fscache_write_page+0x19f/0x3f3 [fscache] stack backtrace: Pid: 7916, comm: nfsiod Not tainted 2.6.32-rc6-cachefs #24 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8105ac7f>] __lock_acquire+0x1649/0x16e3 [<ffffffff81059ded>] ? __lock_acquire+0x7b7/0x16e3 [<ffffffff8100e27d>] ? dump_trace+0x248/0x257 [<ffffffff8105ad70>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffffa0076872>] ? __fscache_uncache_page+0xdb/0x160 [fscache] [<ffffffff8135467c>] _spin_lock+0x2c/0x3b [<ffffffffa0076872>] ? __fscache_uncache_page+0xdb/0x160 [fscache] [<ffffffffa0076872>] __fscache_uncache_page+0xdb/0x160 [fscache] [<ffffffffa0077eb7>] ? __fscache_check_page_write+0x0/0x71 [fscache] [<ffffffffa00b4755>] nfs_fscache_release_page+0x86/0xc4 [nfs] [<ffffffffa00907f0>] nfs_release_page+0x3c/0x41 [nfs] [<ffffffff81087ffb>] try_to_release_page+0x32/0x3b [<ffffffff81092c2b>] shrink_page_list+0x316/0x4ac [<ffffffff81058a9b>] ? mark_held_locks+0x52/0x70 [<ffffffff8135451b>] ? _spin_unlock_irq+0x2b/0x31 [<ffffffff81093153>] shrink_inactive_list+0x392/0x67c [<ffffffff81058a9b>] ? mark_held_locks+0x52/0x70 [<ffffffff810934ca>] shrink_list+0x8d/0x8f [<ffffffff81093744>] shrink_zone+0x278/0x33c [<ffffffff81052c70>] ? ktime_get_ts+0xad/0xba [<ffffffff8109453b>] try_to_free_pages+0x22e/0x392 [<ffffffff8109184c>] ? isolate_pages_global+0x0/0x212 [<ffffffff8108e16b>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x3dc/0x5cf [<ffffffff810ae24a>] cache_alloc_refill+0x34d/0x6c1 [<ffffffff811bcf74>] ? radix_tree_node_alloc+0x52/0x5c [<ffffffff810ae929>] kmem_cache_alloc+0xb2/0x118 [<ffffffff811bcf74>] radix_tree_node_alloc+0x52/0x5c [<ffffffff811bcfd5>] radix_tree_insert+0x57/0x19c [<ffffffffa0076b53>] __fscache_write_page+0x1e3/0x3f3 [fscache] [<ffffffffa00b4248>] __nfs_readpage_to_fscache+0x58/0x11e [nfs] [<ffffffffa009bb77>] nfs_readpage_release+0x34/0x9b [nfs] [<ffffffffa009c0d9>] nfs_readpage_release_full+0x32/0x4b [nfs] [<ffffffffa0006cff>] rpc_release_calldata+0x12/0x14 [sunrpc] [<ffffffffa0006e2d>] rpc_free_task+0x59/0x61 [sunrpc] [<ffffffffa0006f03>] rpc_async_release+0x10/0x12 [sunrpc] [<ffffffff810482e5>] worker_thread+0x1ef/0x2e2 [<ffffffff81048290>] ? worker_thread+0x19a/0x2e2 [<ffffffff81352433>] ? thread_return+0x3e/0x101 [<ffffffffa0006ef3>] ? rpc_async_release+0x0/0x12 [sunrpc] [<ffffffff8104bff5>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x34 [<ffffffff81058d25>] ? trace_hardirqs_on+0xd/0xf [<ffffffff810480f6>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0x2e2 [<ffffffff8104bd21>] kthread+0x7a/0x82 [<ffffffff8100beda>] child_rip+0xa/0x20 [<ffffffff8100b87c>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [<ffffffff8104c2b9>] ? add_wait_queue+0x15/0x44 [<ffffffff8104bca7>] ? kthread+0x0/0x82 [<ffffffff8100bed0>] ? child_rip+0x0/0x20 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2009-11-18strcmp: fix overflow and possibly signedness errorLinus Torvalds
Doing the strcmp return value as signed char __res = *cs - *ct; is wrong for two reasons. The subtraction can overflow because __res doesn't use a type big enough. Moreover the compared bytes should be interpreted as unsigned char as specified by POSIX. The same problem is fixed in strncmp.
