Here are 3 SPDX patches for 5.7-rc1.
One fixes up the SPDX tag for a single driver, while the other two go
through the tree and add SPDX tags for all of the .gitignore files as
needed.
Nothing too complex, but you will get a merge conflict with your current

one file deleted.)
All 3 of these have been in linux-next for a while, with no reported

xas_for_each_marked() is using entry == NULL as a termination condition
of the iteration. When xas_for_each_marked() is used protected only by
RCU, this can however race with xas_store(xas, NULL) in the following
way:
TASK1 TASK2
page_cache_delete() find_get_pages_range_tag()
xas_for_each_marked()
xas_find_marked()
off = xas_find_chunk()
xas_store(&xas, NULL)
xas_init_marks(&xas);
...
rcu_assign_pointer(*slot, NULL);
entry = xa_entry(off);
And thus xas_for_each_marked() terminates prematurely possibly leading
to missed entries in the iteration (translating to missing writeback of
some pages or a similar problem).
If we find a NULL entry that has been marked, skip it (unless we're trying
to allocate an entry).

If the entry is deleted from the IDR between the call to
radix_tree_iter_find() and rcu_dereference_raw(), idr_get_next()
will return NULL, which will end the iteration prematurely. We should
instead continue to the next entry in the IDR. This only happens if the
iteration is protected by the RCU lock. Most IDR users use a spinlock
or semaphore to exclude simultaneous modifications. It was noticed once
the PID allocator was converted to use the IDR, as it uses the RCU lock,
but there may be other users elsewhere in the kernel.
We can't use the normal pattern of calling radix_tree_deref_retry()
(which catches both a retry entry in a leaf node and a node entry in
the root) as the IDR supports storing entries which are unaligned,
which will trigger an infinite loop if they are encountered. Instead,
we have to explicitly check whether the entry is a retry entry.

Commit 66ee620f06 ("idr: Permit any valid kernel pointer to be stored")
changed the radix tree lookup so that it stops when reaching the bottom
of the tree. However, the condition was added in the wrong place,
making it possible to return retry entries to the caller. Reorder the
tests to check for the retry entry before checking whether we're at the
bottom of the tree. The retry entry should never be found in the tree
root, so it's safe to defer the check until the end of the loop.
Add a regression test to the test-suite to be sure this doesn't come

xa_store() differs from radix_tree_insert() in that it will overwrite an
existing element in the array rather than returning an error. This is
the behaviour which most users want, and those that want more complex
behaviour generally want to use the xas family of routines anyway.
For memory allocation, xa_store() will first attempt to request memory
from the slab allocator; if memory is not immediately available, it will
drop the xa_lock and allocate memory, keeping a pointer in the xa_state.
It does not use the per-CPU cache, although those will continue to exist
until all radix tree users are converted to the xarray.
This patch also includes xa_erase() and __xa_erase() for a streamlined
way to store NULL. Since there is no need to allocate memory in order
to store a NULL in the XArray, we do not need to trouble the user with
deciding what memory allocation flags to use.

The xa_load function brings with it a lot of infrastructure; xa_empty(),
xa_is_err(), and large chunks of the XArray advanced API that are used
to implement xa_load.
As the test-suite demonstrates, it is possible to use the XArray functions
on a radix tree. The radix tree functions depend on the GFP flags being
stored in the root of the tree, so it's not possible to use the radix
tree functions on an XArray.

Introduce xarray value entries and tagged pointers to replace radix

the use of an extra bit (we can now store BITS_PER_LONG - 1 bits in a
value entry). It is also a change in emphasis; exceptional entries are
intimidating and different. As the comment explains, you can choose
to store values or pointers in the xarray and they are both first-class
citizens.

An upcoming change to the encoding of internal entries will set the bottom
two bits to 0b10. Unfortunately, m68k only aligns some data structures
to 2 bytes, so the IDR will interpret them as internal entries and things
will go badly wrong.
Change the radix tree so that it stops either when the node indicates
that it's the bottom of the tree (shift == 0) or when the entry is not an
internal entry. This means we cannot insert an arbitrary kernel pointer
as a multiorder entry, but the IDR does not permit multiorder entries.
Annoyingly, this means the IDR can no longer take advantage of the radix
tree's ability to store a single entry at offset 0 without allocating
memory. A pointer which is 2-byte aligned cannot be stored directly in
the root as it would be indistinguishable from a node, so we must allocate
a node in order to store a 2-byte pointer at index 0. The idr_replace()
function does not take a GFP flags argument, so cannot allocate memory.
If a user inserts a 4-byte aligned pointer at index 0 and then replaces
it with a 2-byte aligned pointer, we must be able to store it.
Arbitrary pointer values are still not permitted; pointers of the
form 2 + (i * 4) for values of i between 0 and 1023 are reserved for
the implementation. These are not valid kernel pointers as they would
point into the zero page.
This change does cause a runtime memory consumption regression for
the IDA. I will recover that later.

If the radix tree underlying the IDR happens to be full and we attempt
to remove an id which is larger than any id in the IDR, we will call
__radix_tree_delete() with an uninitialised 'slot' pointer, at which
point anything could happen. This was easiest to hit with a single
entry at id 0 and attempting to remove a non-0 id, but it could have
happened with 64 entries and attempting to remove an id >= 64.
Roman said:
The syzcaller test boils down to opening /dev/kvm, creating an
eventfd, and calling a couple of KVM ioctls. None of this requires
superuser. And the result is dereferencing an uninitialized pointer
which is likely a crash. The specific path caught by syzbot is via
KVM_HYPERV_EVENTD ioctl which is new in 4.17. But I guess there are
other user-triggerable paths, so cc:stable is probably justified.
Matthew added:
We have around 250 calls to idr_remove() in the kernel today. Many of
them pass an ID which is embedded in the object they're removing, so
they're safe. Picking a few likely candidates:
drivers/firewire/core-cdev.c looks unsafe; the ID comes from an ioctl.
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ctx.c is similar
drivers/atm/nicstar.c could be taken down by a handcrafted packet

Add a test which shows a race in the multi-order iteration code. This
test reliably hits the race in under a second on my machine, and is the
result of a real bug report against kernel a production v4.15 based
kernel (4.15.6-300.fc27.x86_64). With a real kernel this issue is hit
when using order 9 PMD DAX radix tree entries.
The race has to do with how we tear down multi-order sibling entries
when we are removing an item from the tree. Remember that an order 2
entry looks like this:
struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][sibling][sibling][sibling]
where 'entry' is in some slot in the struct radix_tree_node, and the
three slots following 'entry' contain sibling pointers which point back
to 'entry.'
When we delete 'entry' from the tree, we call :
radix_tree_delete()
radix_tree_delete_item()
__radix_tree_delete()
replace_slot()
replace_slot() first removes the siblings in order from the first to the
last, then at then replaces 'entry' with NULL. This means that for a
brief period of time we end up with one or more of the siblings removed,
so:
struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][NULL][sibling][sibling]
This causes an issue if you have a reader iterating over the slots in
the tree via radix_tree_for_each_slot() while only under
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() protection. This is a common case in
mm/filemap.c.
The issue is that when __radix_tree_next_slot() => skip_siblings() tries
to skip over the sibling entries in the slots, it currently does so with
an exact match on the slot directly preceding our current slot.
Normally this works:
V preceding slot
struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][sibling][sibling][sibling]
^ current slot
This lets you find the first sibling, and you skip them all in order.
But in the case where one of the siblings is NULL, that slot is skipped
and then our sibling detection is interrupted:
V preceding slot
struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][NULL][sibling][sibling]
^ current slot
This means that the sibling pointers aren't recognized since they point
all the way back to 'entry', so we think that they are normal internal
radix tree pointers. This causes us to think we need to walk down to a
struct radix_tree_node starting at the address of 'entry'.
In a real running kernel this will crash the thread with a GP fault when
you try and dereference the slots in your broken node starting at
'entry'.
In the radix tree test suite this will be caught by the address
sanitizer:

Currently the lifetime of "struct item" entries in the radix tree are
not controlled by RCU, but are instead deleted inline as they are
removed from the tree.
In the following patches we add a test which has threads iterating over
items pulled from the tree and verifying them in an
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() section. This means that though an
item has been removed from the tree it could still be being worked on by
other threads until the RCU grace period expires. So, we need to
actually free the "struct item" structures at the end of the grace
period, just as we do with "struct radix_tree_node" items.

Unfortunately, this phony target doesn't actually work as a dependency,

Patch series "XArray", v9. (First part thereof).
This patchset is, I believe, appropriate for merging for 4.17. It
contains the XArray implementation, to eventually replace the radix
tree, and converts the page cache to use it.
This conversion keeps the radix tree and XArray data structures in sync
at all times. That allows us to convert the page cache one function at
a time and should allow for easier bisection. Other than renaming some
elements of the structures, the data structures are fundamentally
unchanged; a radix tree walk and an XArray walk will touch the same
number of cachelines. I have changes planned to the XArray data
structure, but those will happen in future patches.
Improvements the XArray has over the radix tree:
- The radix tree provides operations like other trees do; 'insert' and
'delete'. But what most users really want is an automatically
resizing array, and so it makes more sense to give users an API that
is like an array -- 'load' and 'store'. We still have an 'insert'
operation for users that really want that semantic.
- The XArray considers locking as part of its API. This simplifies a
lot of users who formerly had to manage their own locking just for
the radix tree. It also improves code generation as we can now tell
RCU that we're holding a lock and it doesn't need to generate as much
fencing code. The other advantage is that tree nodes can be moved
(not yet implemented).
- GFP flags are now parameters to calls which may need to allocate
memory. The radix tree forced users to decide what the allocation
flags would be at creation time. It's much clearer to specify them at
allocation time.
- Memory is not preloaded; we don't tie up dozens of pages on the off
chance that the slab allocator fails. Instead, we drop the lock,
allocate a new node and retry the operation. We have to convert all
the radix tree, IDA and IDR preload users before we can realise this
benefit, but I have not yet found a user which cannot be converted.
- The XArray provides a cmpxchg operation. The radix tree forces users
to roll their own (and at least four have).
- Iterators take a 'max' parameter. That simplifies many users and will
reduce the amount of iteration done.
- Iteration can proceed backwards. We only have one user for this, but
since it's called as part of the pagefault readahead algorithm, that
seemed worth mentioning.
- RCU-protected pointers are not exposed as part of the API. There are
some fun bugs where the page cache forgets to use rcu_dereference()
in the current codebase.
- Value entries gain an extra bit compared to radix tree exceptional
entries. That gives us the extra bit we need to put huge page swap
entries in the page cache.
- Some iterators now take a 'filter' argument instead of having
separate iterators for tagged/untagged iterations.
The page cache is improved by this:
- Shorter, easier to read code
- More efficient iterations
- Reduction in size of struct address_space
- Fewer walks from the top of the data structure; the XArray API
encourages staying at the leaf node and conducting operations there.
This patch (of 8):
None of these bits may be used for slab allocations, so we can use them
as radix tree flags as long as we mask them off before passing them to
the slab allocator. Move the IDR flag from the high bits to the
GFP_ZONEMASK bits.
