Sudip Mukherjee ac05b7a1b4 kernel/relay.c: drop unneeded initialization
The variable 'consumed' is initialized with the consumed count but
immediately after that the consumed count is updated and assigned to
'consumed' again thus overwriting the previous value.  So, drop the
unneeded initialization.

'chan->buf' is malloced in relay_open() by alloc_percpu() but not free

Pengcheng Yang 341a7213e5 kernel/relay.c: fix read_pos error when multiple readers
When reading, read_pos should start with bytes_consumed, not file->f_pos.
Because when there is more than one reader, the read_pos corresponding to
file->f_pos may have been consumed, which will cause the data that has
been consumed to be read and the bytes_consumed update error.

Daniel Axtens 54e200ab40 kernel/relay.c: handle alloc_percpu returning NULL in relay_open
alloc_percpu() may return NULL, which means chan->buf may be set to NULL.
In that case, when we do *per_cpu_ptr(chan->buf, ...), we dereference an
invalid pointer:

  BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access at 0x7dae0000
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000003f3fec

This was found by syzkaller both on x86 and powerpc, and the reproducer
it found on powerpc is capable of hitting the issue as an unprivileged
user.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 2c1cf00eea relay: check return of create_buf_file() properly
If create_buf_file() returns an error, don't try to reference it later
as a valid dentry pointer.

This problem was exposed when debugfs started to return errors instead
of just NULL for some calls when they do not succeed properly.

Also, the check for WARN_ON(dentry) was just wrong :)

documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno.  Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.

Kees Cook 6da2ec5605 treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

David Rientjes 88913bd8ea kernel/relay.c: limit kmalloc size to KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE
chan->n_subbufs is set by the user and relay_create_buf() does a kmalloc()
of chan->n_subbufs * sizeof(size_t *).

kmalloc_slab() will generate a warning when this fails if
chan->subbufs * sizeof(size_t *) > KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.

Limit chan->n_subbufs to the maximum allowed kmalloc() size.

        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Peter Zijlstra 26b5679e43 relay: Use irq_work instead of plain timer for deferred wakeup
Relay avoids calling wake_up_interruptible() for doing the wakeup of
readers/consumers, waiting for the generation of new data, from the
context of a process which produced the data.  This is apparently done to
prevent the possibility of a deadlock in case Scheduler itself is is
generating data for the relay, after acquiring rq->lock.

The following patch used a timer (to be scheduled at next jiffy), for
delegating the wakeup to another context.
	commit 7c9cb38302
	Author: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@comcast.net>
	Date:   Wed May 9 02:34:01 2007 -0700

	relay: use plain timer instead of delayed work

	relay doesn't need to use schedule_delayed_work() for waking readers
	when a simple timer will do.

Scheduling a plain timer, at next jiffies boundary, to do the wakeup
causes a significant wakeup latency for the Userspace client, which makes
relay less suitable for the high-frequency low-payload use cases where the
data gets generated at a very high rate, like multiple sub buffers getting
filled within a milli second.  Moreover the timer is re-scheduled on every
newly produced sub buffer so the timer keeps getting pushed out if sub
buffers are filled in a very quick succession (less than a jiffy gap
between filling of 2 sub buffers).  As a result relay runs out of sub
buffers to store the new data.

By using irq_work it is ensured that wakeup of userspace client, blocked
in the poll call, is done at earliest (through self IPI or next timer
tick) enabling it to always consume the data in time.  Also this makes
relay consistent with printk & ring buffers (trace), as they too use
irq_work for deferred wake up of readers.

Akash Goel 59dbb2a06f relay: add global mode support for buffer-only channels
Commit 20d8b67c06 ("relay: add buffer-only channels; useful for early
logging") added support to use channels with no associated files.

This is useful when the exact location of relay file is not known or the
the parent directory of relay file is not available, while creating the
channel and the logging has to start right from the boot.

But there was no provision to use global mode with buffer-only channels,
which is added by this patch, without modifying the interface where
initially there will be a dummy invocation of create_buf_file callback
through which kernel client can convey the need of a global buffer.

For the use case where drivers/kernel clients want a simple interface
for the userspace, which enables them to capture data/logs from relay
file inorder & without any post processing, support of Global buffer
mode is warranted.

Modules, like i915, using relay_open() in early init would have to later
register their buffer-only relays, once debugfs is available, by calling
relay_late_setup_files().  Hence relay_late_setup_files() symbol also
needs to be exported.

Paul Gortmaker 0db0628d90 kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel files
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in
the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include)
that don't really have a specific maintainer.

Dmitry Monakhov b8d4a5bf6a relay: move remove_buf_file inside relay_close_buf
Currently remove_buf_file callback is called from from kobject
release method. This result in follow issue:
# blktrace -d /dev/sda1 -d /dev/sda -o test

blktrace_setup()
 dir = create_dir()
 rchan = relay_open(dir,...)
 ->create_buf_file_callback
    buf_file  = debugfs_create_file(dir, )

Userspace will open buf_file.
Later we make a decision to stop tracing
blktrace_down()
  relay_close(rhcan)  /* just decrement kobj reference  */
                      /* since it is not zero then callback not called */
  debugfs_remove(dir) /* FAIL due to non empty dir   */

Later user space will close the file and file will be deleted,
but directory still exist.
user_space_close()
 ->file_release
   ->release_buf_file_callback
     ->debugfs_remove(buf_file
## TESTCASE:
# blktrace -d /dev/sda1 -d /dev/sda -o test
# After that blktrace infrastructure will remain broken in
# an unusable state so: blktrace -d /dev/sda1 will not work.

In fact this is general issue, blktrace is just one of examples.
We can not reliably remove parent dir until all users close the
buf_file.

Solution: We don't have to wait that long. File should be deleted inside
relay_close_buf().

Eric Dumazet 047fe36052 splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses
Dave Jones reported a kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3474! triggered
by splice_shrink_spd() called from vmsplice_to_pipe()

commit 35f3d14dbb (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes)
added capability to adjust pipe->buffers.

Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers
doesn't change for their duration.

Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and
use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate.

splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument.

Paul Gortmaker 9984de1a5a kernel: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.h
The changed files were only including linux/module.h for the
EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure, and nothing else.  Revector them
onto the isolated export header for faster compile times.

Nothing to see here but a whole lot of instances of:

  -#include <linux/module.h>
  +#include <linux/export.h>

This commit is only changing the kernel dir; next targets
will probably be mm, fs, the arch dirs, etc.

Jesper Juhl 408af87a39 Clean up relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by using vzalloc rather than vmalloc and memset
We can optimize kernel/relay.c::relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by
using vzalloc.  The patch makes these changes:

 - use vzalloc instead of vmalloc+memset.
 - remove redundant local variable 'array'.
 - declare local 'pa_size' as const.

Cuts down nicely on both source and object-code size.
