9f029f540c lib/hexdump.c: truncate output in case of overflow
There is a classical off-by-one error in case when we try to place, for
example, 1+1 bytes as hex in the buffer of size 6.  The expected result is
to get an output truncated, but in the reality we get 6 bytes filed
followed by terminating NUL.

Change the logic how we fill the output in case of byte dumping into
limited space.  This will follow the snprintf() behaviour by truncating
output even on half bytes.

Fixes: 114fc1afb2 (hexdump: make it return number of bytes placed in buffer)

8de1ee7ebf rbtree: clarify documentation of rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe()
I noticed that commit a20135ffbc ("writeback: don't drain
bdi_writeback_congested on bdi destruction") added a usage of
rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() in mm/backing-dev.c which appears
to try to rb_erase() elements from an rbtree while iterating over it using
rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe().

Doing this will cause random nodes to be missed by the iteration because
rb_erase() may rebalance the tree, changing the ordering that we're trying
to iterate over.

The previous documentation for rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe()
wasn't clear that this wasn't allowed, it was taken from the docs for
list_for_each_entry_safe(), where erasing isn't a problem due to
list_del() not reordering.

Explicitly warn developers about this potential pit-fall.

Note that I haven't fixed the actual issue that (it appears) the commit
referenced above introduced (not familiar enough with that code).

In general (and in this case), the patterns to follow are:
 - switch to rb_first() + rb_erase(), don't use
   rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe().
 - keep the postorder iteration and don't rb_erase() at all. Instead
   just clear the fields of rb_node & cgwb_congested_tree as required by
   other users of those structures.

f773f32d71 lib/kobject.c: use kvasprintf_const for formatting ->name
Sometimes kobject_set_name_vargs is called with a format string conaining
no %, or a format string of precisely "%s", where the single vararg
happens to point to .rodata.  kvasprintf_const detects these cases for us
and returns a copy of that pointer instead of duplicating the string, thus
saving some run-time memory.  Otherwise, it falls back to kvasprintf.  We
just need to always deallocate ->name using kfree_const.

Unfortunately, the dance we need to do to perform the '/' -> '!'
sanitization makes the resulting code rather ugly.

I instrumented kstrdup_const to provide some statistics on the memory
saved, and for me this gave an additional ~14KB after boot (306KB was
already saved; this patch bumped that to 320KB).  I have
KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==3, and since 80% of the kvasprintf_const hits were
satisfied by an 8-byte allocation, the 14K would roughly be quadrupled
when KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==5.  Whether these numbers are sufficient to
justify the ugliness I'll leave to others to decide.

0a9df786a6 lib/kasprintf.c: introduce kvasprintf_const
This adds kvasprintf_const which tries to use kstrdup_const if possible:
If the format string contains no % characters, or if the format string is
exactly "%s", we delegate to kstrdup_const.  Otherwise, we fall back to
kvasprintf.

Just as for kstrdup_const, the main motivation is to save memory by
reusing .rodata when possible.

The return value should be freed by kfree_const, just like for
kstrdup_const.

There is deliberately no kasprintf_const: In the vast majority of cases,
the format string argument is a literal, so one can determine statically
whether one could instead use kstrdup_const directly (which would also
require one to change all corresponding kfree calls to kfree_const).

2cf12f821c lib/llist.c: fix data race in llist_del_first
llist_del_first reads entry->next, but it did not acquire visibility over
the entry node.  As the result it can get a stale value of entry->next
(e.g.  NULL or whatever garbage was there before the appending thread
wrote correct value).  And then commit that value as llist head with
cmpxchg.  That will corrupt llist.

Note there is a control-dependency between read of head->first and read of
entry->next, but it does not make the code correct.  Kernel memory model
unambiguously says: "A load-load control dependency requires a full read
memory barrier".

Use smp_load_acquire to acquire visibility over the entry node.

The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).

Here is an example of KTSAN report:

example (e.g., --nogit is mentioned as a default option), but they aren't
explicitly mentioned in the list of options.  It happens that some of
these are pretty important, as they are default-on, and to turn them off,
you have to know about the --no-foo version.

Rather than clutter the whole help text with bracketed '--[no]foo', let's

3824657c52 printk: prevent userland from spoofing kernel messages
The following statement of ABI/testing/dev-kmsg is not quite right:

   It is not possible to inject messages from userspace with the
   facility number LOG_KERN (0), to make sure that the origin of the
   messages can always be reliably determined.

Userland actually can inject messages with a facility of 0 by abusing the
fact that the facility is stored in a u8 data type.  By using a facility
which is a multiple of 256 the assignment of msg->facility in log_store()
implicitly truncates it to 0, i.e.  LOG_KERN, allowing users of /dev/kmsg
to spoof kernel messages as shown below:

The following call...
   # printf '<%d>Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty\n' 0 >/dev/kmsg
...leads to the following log entry (dmesg -x | tail -n 1):
   user  :emerg : [   66.137758] Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty

However, this call...
   # printf '<%d>Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty\n' 0x800 >/dev/kmsg
...leads to the slightly different log entry (note the kernel facility):
   kern  :emerg : [   74.177343] Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty

Fix that by limiting the user provided facility to 8 bit right from the
beginning and catch the truncation early.

707cc7280f test_printf: test printf family at runtime
This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities.
Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case
the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf().  This
should help catch such issues.  Also, it should help ensure that changes
to the formatting algorithms don't break anything.

I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at
boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be
testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting.

The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional
table-driven approach.

For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very
welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the
expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime
values etc.

As a quick

   git grep -E '%[ +0#-]*#[ +0#-]*(\*|[0-9]+)?(\.(\*|[0-9]+)?)?p'

shows, nobody uses the # flag with %p. Should one try to do so, one
will be met with

  warning: `#' flag used with `%p' gnu_printf format [-Wformat]

(POSIX and C99 both say "... For other conversion specifiers, the
behavior is undefined.". Obviously, the kernel can choose to define
the behaviour however it wants, but as long as gcc issues that
warning, users are unlikely to show up.)

Since default_width is effectively always 2*sizeof(void*), we can
simplify the prologue of pointer() and save a few instructions.

    On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0.
    Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a
    3 GiB one.  So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along.
    This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf.

I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just
do it now.

b006f19b05 lib/vsprintf.c: handle invalid format specifiers more robustly
If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by
just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format
string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means
something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up
interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*.

When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format
string, but we can't rely on that always being the case.  Also, gcc
doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length
modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by
the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown
specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly.

So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and
stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the
format/arguments.  If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we
unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least
direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.

Move all pointer-formatting documentation to one place in the code and one
place in the documentation instead of keeping it in three places with
different level of completeness.  Documentation/printk-formats.txt has
detailed information about each modifier, docstring above pointer() has
short descriptions of them (as that is the function dealing with %p) and
docstring above vsprintf() is removed as redundant.  Both docstrings in
the code that were modified are updated with a reminder of updating the

1d798ca3f1 mm: make compound_head() robust
Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some
context. There's one example:

	CPU0					CPU1

isolate_migratepages_block()
  page_count()
    compound_head()
      !!PageTail() == true
					put_page()
					  tail->first_page = NULL
      head = tail->first_page
					alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP)
					   prep_compound_page()
					     tail->first_page = head
					     __SetPageTail(p);
      !!PageTail() == true
    <head == NULL dereferencing>

The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in
practice. But who knows.

We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head()
within struct page to be able to update them in one shot.

The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in
front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and
the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set.

The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an
architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0
set.

hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store
pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private
in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is
removed from the union.

The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER
limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct
hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch.

That means page->compound_head shares storage space with:

 - page->lru.next;
 - page->next;
 - page->rcu_head.next;

That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses
bit 0 of the word.

page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use
call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future
call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can
get false positive PageTail().

f1e61557f0 mm: pack compound_dtor and compound_order into one word in struct page
The patch halves space occupied by compound_dtor and compound_order in
struct page.

For compound_order, it's trivial long -> short conversion.

For get_compound_page_dtor(), we now use hardcoded table for destructor
lookup and store its index in the struct page instead of direct pointer
to destructor. It shouldn't be a big trouble to maintain the table: we
have only two destructor and NULL currently.

This patch free up one word in tail pages for reuse. This is preparation
for the next patch.

6fe5186f0c zsmalloc: reduce size_class memory usage
Each `struct size_class' contains `struct zs_size_stat': an array of
NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE `unsigned long'.  For zsmalloc built with no
CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT this results in a waste of `2 * sizeof(unsigned
long)' per-class.

The patch removes unneeded `struct zs_size_stat' members by redefining
NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE (max stat idx in array).

Since both NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE and zs_stat_type are compile time constants,
GCC can eliminate zs_stat_inc()/zs_stat_dec() calls that use zs_stat_type
larger than NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE: CLASS_ALMOST_EMPTY and CLASS_ALMOST_FULL at
the moment.

./scripts/bloat-o-meter mm/zsmalloc.o.old mm/zsmalloc.o.new
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-39 (-39)

remove_zspage                                141     119     -22

To summarize:
a) each class now uses less memory
b) we avoid a number of dec/inc stats (a minor optimization,
   but still).

The gain will increase once we introduce additional stats.

A simple IO test.

12a7bfad58 zsmalloc: fix obj_to_head use page_private(page) as value but not pointer
In obj_malloc():

	if (!class->huge)
		/* record handle in the header of allocated chunk */
		link->handle = handle;
	else
		/* record handle in first_page->private */
		set_page_private(first_page, handle);

In the hugepage we save handle to private directly.

But in obj_to_head():

	if (class->huge) {
		VM_BUG_ON(!is_first_page(page));
		return *(unsigned long *)page_private(page);
	} else
		return *(unsigned long *)obj;

It is used as a pointer.

The reason why there is no problem until now is huge-class page is born
with ZS_FULL so it can't be migrated.  However, we need this patch for
future work: "VM-aware zsmalloced page migration" to reduce external
fragmentation.

69e18f4dbe zpool: remove redundant zpool->type string, const-ify zpool_get_type
Make the return type of zpool_get_type const; the string belongs to the
zpool driver and should not be modified.  Remove the redundant type field
in the struct zpool; it is private to zpool.c and isn't needed since
->driver->type can be used directly.  Add comments indicating strings must
be null-terminated.

c99b42c352 zswap: use charp for zswap param strings
Instead of using a fixed-length string for the zswap params, use charp.
This simplifies the code and uses less memory, as most zswap param strings
will be less than the current maximum length.

Make is_partial_io()/valid_io_request()/page_zero_filled() return boolean,
since each function only uses either one or zero as its return value.
