no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b144
("fs: remove no_llseek")
To quote that commit,
At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -
git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done
would do it.
Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

Here is the "big" set of tty/serial driver updates for 6.12-rc1.
Nothing major in here, just nice forward progress in the slow cleanup of
the serial apis, and lots of other driver updates and fixes.
Included in here are:
- serial api updates from Jiri to make things more uniform and sane
- 8250_platform driver cleanups
- samsung serial driver fixes and updates
- qcom-geni serial driver fixes from Johan for the bizarre UART engine
that that chip seems to have. Hopefully it's in a better state now,
but hardware designers still seem to come up with more ways to make
broken UARTS 40+ years after this all should have finished.
- sc16is7xx driver updates
- omap 8250 driver updates
- 8250_bcm2835aux driver updates
- a few new serial driver bindings added
- other serial minor driver updates
All of these have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported
problems.

Merge tag 'printk-for-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
"This is the "last" part of the support for the new nbcon consoles.
Where "nbcon" stays for "No Big console lock CONsoles" aka not under
the console_lock.
New callbacks are added to struct console:
- write_thread() for flushing nbcon consoles in task context.
- write_atomic() for flushing nbcon consoles in atomic context,
including NMI.
- con->device_lock() and device_unlock() for taking the driver
specific lock, for example, port->lock.
New printk-specific kthreads are created:
- per-console kthreads which get responsible for flushing normal
priority messages on nbcon consoles.
- thread which gets responsible for flushing normal priority messages
on all consoles when CONFIG_RT enabled.
The new callbacks are called under a special per-console lock which
has already been added back in v6.7. It allows to distinguish three
severities: normal, emergency, and panic. A context with a higher
priority could take over the ownership when it is safe even in the
middle of handling a record. The panic context could do it even when
it is not safe. But it is allowed only for the final desperate flush
before entering the infinite loop.
The new lock helps to flush the messages directly in emergency and
panic contexts. But it is not enough in all situations:
- console_lock() is still need for synchronization against boot
consoles.
- con->device_lock() is need for synchronization against other
operations on the same HW, e.g. serial port speed setting,
non-printk related read/write.
The dependency on con->device_lock() is mutual. Any code taking the
driver specific lock has to acquire the related nbcon console context
as well. For example, see the new uart_port_lock() API. It provides
the necessary synchronization against emergency and panic contexts
where the messages are flushed only under the new per-console lock.
Maybe surprisingly, a quite tricky part is the decision how to flush
the consoles in various situations. It has to take into account:
- message priority: normal, emergency, panic
- scheduling context: task, atomic, deferred_legacy
- registered consoles: boot, legacy, nbcon
- threads are running: early boot, suspend, shutdown, panic
- caller: printk(), pr_flush(), printk_flush_in_panic(),
console_unlock(), console_start(), ...
The primary decision is made in printk_get_console_flush_type(). It
creates a hint what the caller should do:
- flush nbcon consoles directly or via the kthread
- call the legacy loop (console_unlock()) directly or via irq_work
The existing behavior is preserved for the legacy consoles. The only
exception is that they are not longer flushed directly from printk()
in panic() before CPUs are stopped. But this blocking happens only
when at least one nbcon console is registered. The motivation is to
increase a chance to produce the crash dump. They legacy consoles
might create a deadlock in compare with nbcon consoles. The nbcon
console should allow to see the messages even when the crash dump
fails.
There are three possible ways how nbcon consoles are flushed:
- The per-nbcon-console kthread is responsible for flushing messages
added with the normal priority. This is the default mode.
- The legacy loop, aka console_unlock(), is used when there is still
a boot console registered. There is no easy way how to match an
early console driver with a nbcon console driver. And the
console_lock() provides the only reliable serialization at the
moment.
The legacy loop uses either con->write_atomic() or
con->write_thread() callbacks depending on whether it is allowed to
schedule. The atomic variant has to be used from printk().
- In other situations, the messages are flushed directly using
write_atomic() which can be called in any context, including NMI.
It is primary needed during early boot or shutdown, in emergency
situations, and panic.
The emergency priority is used by a code called within
nbcon_cpu_emergency_enter()/exit(). At the moment, it is used in four
situations: WARN(), Oops, lockdep, and RCU stall reports.
Finally, there is no nbcon console at the moment. It means that the
changes should _not_ modify the existing behavior. The only exception
is CONFIG_RT which would force offloading the legacy loop, for normal
priority context, into the dedicated kthread"

We do embedd struct fown_struct into struct file letting it take up 32
bytes in total. We could tweak struct fown_struct to be more compact but
really it shouldn't even be embedded in struct file in the first place.
Instead, actual users of struct fown_struct should allocate the struct
on demand. This frees up 24 bytes in struct file.
That will have some potentially user-visible changes for the ownership
fcntl()s. Some of them can now fail due to allocation failures.
Practically, that probably will almost never happen as the allocations
are small and they only happen once per file.
The fown_struct is used during kill_fasync() which is used by e.g.,
pipes to generate a SIGIO signal. Sending of such signals is conditional
on userspace having set an owner for the file using one of the F_OWNER
fcntl()s. Such users will be unaffected if struct fown_struct is
allocated during the fcntl() call.
There are a few subsystems that call __f_setown() expecting
file->f_owner to be allocated:
(1) tun devices
file->f_op->fasync::tun_chr_fasync()
-> __f_setown()
There are no callers of tun_chr_fasync().
(2) tty devices
file->f_op->fasync::tty_fasync()
-> __tty_fasync()
-> __f_setown()
tty_fasync() has no additional callers but __tty_fasync() has. Note
that __tty_fasync() only calls __f_setown() if the @on argument is
true. It's called from:
file->f_op->release::tty_release()
-> tty_release()
-> __tty_fasync()
-> __f_setown()
tty_release() calls __tty_fasync() with @on false
=> __f_setown() is never called from tty_release().
=> All callers of tty_release() are safe as well.
file->f_op->release::tty_open()
-> tty_release()
-> __tty_fasync()
-> __f_setown()
__tty_hangup() calls __tty_fasync() with @on false
=> __f_setown() is never called from tty_release().
=> All callers of __tty_hangup() are safe as well.
From the callchains it's obvious that (1) and (2) end up getting called
via file->f_op->fasync(). That can happen either through the F_SETFL
fcntl() with the FASYNC flag raised or via the FIOASYNC ioctl(). If
FASYNC is requested and the file isn't already FASYNC then
file->f_op->fasync() is called with @on true which ends up causing both
(1) and (2) to call __f_setown().
(1) and (2) are the only subsystems that call __f_setown() from the
file->f_op->fasync() handler. So both (1) and (2) have been updated to
allocate a struct fown_struct prior to calling fasync_helper() to
register with the fasync infrastructure. That's safe as they both call
fasync_helper() which also does allocations if @on is true.
The other interesting case are file leases:
(3) file leases
lease_manager_ops->lm_setup::lease_setup()
-> __f_setown()
Which in turn is called from:
generic_add_lease()
-> lease_manager_ops->lm_setup::lease_setup()
-> __f_setown()
So here again we can simply make generic_add_lease() allocate struct
fown_struct prior to the lease_manager_ops->lm_setup::lease_setup()
which happens under a spinlock.
With that the two remaining subsystems that call __f_setown() are:
(4) dnotify
(5) sockets
Both have their own custom ioctls to set struct fown_struct and both
have been converted to allocate a struct fown_struct on demand from
their respective ioctls.
Interactions with O_PATH are fine as well e.g., when opening a /dev/tty
as O_PATH then no file->f_op->open() happens thus no file->f_owner is
allocated. That's fine as no file operation will be set for those and
the device has never been opened. fcntl()s called on such things will
just allocate a ->f_owner on demand. Although I have zero idea why'd you
care about f_owner on an O_PATH fd.

In ACM support for sending breaks to devices is optional.
If a device says that it doenot support sending breaks,
the host must respect that.
Given the number of optional features providing tty operations
for each combination is not practical and errors need to be
returned dynamically if unsupported features are requested.
In case a device does not support break, we want the tty layer
to treat that like it treats drivers that statically cannot
support sending a break. It ignores the inability and does nothing.
This patch uses EOPNOTSUPP to indicate that.

To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. Both arch and driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit
less than a month. It is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the unneeded
check for procname == NULL.
The last 2 patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen which allow
us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used to work but the
alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want to detect softlockups
super early rather than wait and spend money on cloud solutions with nothing
but an eventual hung kernel. Although this hadn't gone through linux-next it's
also a stable fix, so we might as well roll through the fixes now.

If the driver sets TTY_DRIVER_HARDWARE_BREAK, we leave ops->break_ctl()
to the driver and return from send_break(). But we do it using a local
variable and keep the code flowing through the end of the function.
Instead, do 'return' immediately with the ops->break_ctl()'s return
value.
This way, we don't have to stuff the 'else' branch of the 'if' with the
software break handling. And we can re-indent the function too.

Here is the big set of tty and serial driver changes for 6.6-rc1.
Lots of cleanups in here this cycle, and some driver updates. Short
summary is:
- Jiri's continued work to make the tty code and apis be a bit more
sane with regards to modern kernel coding style and types
- cpm_uart driver updates
- n_gsm updates and fixes
- meson driver updates
- sc16is7xx driver updates
- 8250 driver updates for different hardware types
- qcom-geni driver fixes
- tegra serial driver change
- stm32 driver updates
- synclink_gt driver cleanups
- tty structure size reduction
All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported issues.
The last bit of cleanups from Jiri and the tty structure size reduction
came in last week, a bit late but as they were just style changes and
size reductions, I figured they should get into this merge cycle so that
others can work on top of them with no merge conflicts.

Eric has pointed out that we still have 3 users of do_each_thread().
Change them to use for_each_process_thread() and kill this helper.
There is a subtle change, after do_each_thread/while_each_thread g == t ==
&init_task, while after for_each_process_thread() they both point to
nowhere, but this doesn't matter.
> Why is for_each_process_thread() better than do_each_thread()?
Say, for_each_process_thread() is rcu safe, do_each_thread() is not.
And certainly
for_each_process_thread(p, t) {
do_something(p, t);
}
looks better than
do_each_thread(p, t) {
do_something(p, t);
} while_each_thread(p, t);
And again, there are only 3 users of this awkward helper left. It should
have been killed years ago and in fact I thought it had already been
killed. It uses while_each_thread() which needs some changes.

tty_read() is supposed to return ssize_t. It takes the return value from
iterate_tty_read(). That currently returns int. On the top of that,
iterate_tty_write() already returns ssize_t. So switch
iterate_tty_read() to ssize_t too, so that all three are consistent.
This means 'i' in tty_read() changes its type too. And while changing
that, rename this generic 'i' to more dedicated 'ret'.

write() passed to do_tty_write() is always ld->ops->write(). Instead,
align with iterate_tty_read() and pass the whole ld instead. This makes

...
User space applications watch for timestamp changes on character device
files in order to determine idle time of a given terminal session. For
example, "w" program uses this information to populate the IDLE column
of its output [1]. Similarly, systemd-logind has optional feature where
it uses atime of the tty character device to determine if there was
activity on the terminal associated with the logind's session object. If
there was no activity for a configured period of time then logind will
terminate such session [2].
Now, usually (e.g. bash running on the terminal) the use of the terminal
will update timestamps (atime and mtime) on the corresponding terminal
character device. However, if access to the terminal, e.g. /dev/pts/0,
is performed through magic character device /dev/tty then such access
obviously changes the state of the terminal, however timestamps on the
device that correspond to the terminal (/dev/pts/0) are not updated.
This patch makes sure that we update timestamps on *all* character
devices that correspond to the given tty, because outside observers (w,
systemd-logind) are maybe checking these timestamps. Obviously, they can
not check timestamps on /dev/tty as that has per-process meaning.

than going through generic_file_splice_read() as they just copy the file

Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in

class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for
all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of
them actually did so.

placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.

If userspace races tcsetattr() with a write, the drained condition
might not be guaranteed by the kernel. There is a race window after
checking Tx is empty before tty_set_termios() takes termios_rwsem for
write. During that race window, more characters can be queued by a
racing writer.
Any ongoing transmission might produce garbage during HW's
->set_termios() call. The intent of TCSADRAIN/FLUSH seems to be
preventing such a character corruption. If those flags are set, take
tty's write lock to stop any writer before performing the lower layer
Tx empty check and wait for the pending characters to be sent (if any).
The initial wait for all-writers-done must be placed outside of tty's
write lock to avoid deadlock which makes it impossible to use
tty_wait_until_sent(). The write lock is retried if a racing write is
detected.

The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything, and it
shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even if it did
something. So just remove it and fix up all callers of the function in
the kernel tree at the same time.

Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1.
The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro,
container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer
passed into it.
The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass in
a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you
specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the
"const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this
series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be used
no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem from
having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e.
kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce
the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do
either.
The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel
developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject, objects
as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver core in
this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of paths
where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so marking
them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this.
So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already
to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object rules.
All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml with
different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version we
have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of subsystem
maintainers have acked the changes as well.
Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like:
- kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better
- vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates
- sysfs and debugfs documentation updates
- device property updates
All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with no
problems, OTHER than some merge issues with other trees that should be
obvious when you hit them (block tree deletes a driver that this tree
modifies, iommufd tree modifies code that this tree also touches). If
there are merge problems with these trees, please let me know.

Here is the "big" set of tty/serial driver changes for 6.2-rc1.
As in previous kernel releases, nothing big here at all, just some small
incremental serial/tty layer cleanups and some individual driver
additions and fixes. Highlights are:
- serial helper macros from Jiri Slaby to reduce the amount of
duplicated code in serial drivers
- api cleanups and consolidations from Ilpo Järvinen in lots of serial
drivers
- the usual set of n_gsm fixes from Daniel Starke as that code gets
exercised more
- TIOCSTI is finally able to be disabled if requested (security
hardening feature from Kees Cook)
- fsl_lpuart driver fixes and features added
- other small serial driver additions and fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

show_cons_active() uses the console_lock to gather information
on registered consoles. It requires that no consoles are unregistered
until it is finished. The console_list_lock should be used because
list synchronization responsibility will be removed from the
console_lock in a later change.
Note, the console_lock is still needed to serialize the device()
callback with other console operations.
