zatimend has reported that in his environment (3.16/gcc4.8.3/corei7)
memset() calls which clear out sensitive data in extract_{buf,entropy,
entropy_user}() in random driver are being optimized away by gcc.
Add a helper memzero_explicit() (similarly as explicit_bzero() variants)
that can be used in such cases where a variable with sensitive data is
being cleared out in the end. Other use cases might also be in crypto
code. [ I have put this into lib/string.c though, as it's always built-in
and doesn't need any dependencies then. ]

The introduced function string_escape_mem() is a kind of opposite to
string_unescape. We have several users of such functionality each of
them created custom implementation. The series contains clean up of
test suite, adding new call, and switching few users to use it via %*pE
specifier.
Test suite covers all of existing and most of potential use cases.

accordingly.

The previous patch made strnicmp into a wrapper for strncasecmp.
This patch makes all in-tree users of strnicmp call strncasecmp
directly, while still making sure that the strnicmp symbol can be used
by out-of-tree modules. It should be considered a temporary hack until
all in-tree callers have been converted.

lib/string.c contains two functions, strnicmp and strncasecmp, which do
roughly the same thing, namely compare two strings case-insensitively up
to a given bound. They have slightly different implementations, but the
only important difference is that strncasecmp doesn't handle len==0
appropriately; it effectively becomes strcasecmp in that case. strnicmp
correctly says that two strings are always equal in their first 0
characters.
strncasecmp is the POSIX name for this functionality. So rename the
non-broken function to the standard name. To minimize the impact on the
rest of the kernel (and since both are exported to modules), make strnicmp
a wrapper for strncasecmp.

The "_MODULE" suffix is reserved for tristates compiled as loadable kernel
modules (LKM). The "TEST_MODULE" feature thereby violates this
convention. The feature is used to compile the lib/test_module.c kernel
module.
Sadly this convention is not made explicit, but the Kconfig code documents
it. The following code (./scripts/kconfig/confdata.c) is used to generate
the autoconf.h header file during the build process. When a feature is
selected as a kernel module ('m'), it is suffixed with "_MODULE" to
indicate it.
switch (*value) {
case 'n':
break;
case 'm':
suffix = "_MODULE";
/* fall through */
This causes problems for static code analysis, which assumes a consistent
use of the "_MODULE" suffix.
This patch renames the feature and its reference in a Makefile to
"TEST_LKM", which still expresses the test of a LKM.

The prio_heap code is unused since commit 889ed9ceaa ("cgroup: remove
css_scan_tasks()"). It should be compiled out to shrink the binary
kernel size which can be done via introducing CONFIG_PRIO_HEAD or by
removing the code.
We can simply recover the code from git when needed, so it would be
better to remove it IMO.

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().

by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric

6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom

7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major

Fastabend.

Commit f0bab73cb5 ("locking/lockdep: Restrict the use of recursive
read_lock() with qrwlock") changed lockdep to try and conform to the
qrwlock semantics which differ from the traditional rwlock semantics.
In particular qrwlock is fair outside of interrupt context, but in
interrupt context readers will ignore all fairness.
The problem modeling this is that read and write side have different
lock state (interrupts) semantics but we only have a single
representation of these. Therefore lockdep will get confused, thinking
the lock can cause interrupt lock inversions.
So revert it for now; the old rwlock semantics were already imperfectly
modeled and the qrwlock extra won't fit either.
If we want to properly fix this, I think we need to resurrect the work
by Gautham did a few years ago that split the read and write state of
locks:
http://lwn.net/Articles/332801/
FWIW the locking selftest that would've failed (and was reported by
Borislav earlier) is something like:
RL(X1); /* IRQ-ON */
LOCK(A);
UNLOCK(A);
RU(X1);
IRQ_ENTER();
RL(X1); /* IN-IRQ */
RU(X1);
IRQ_EXIT();
At which point it would report that because A is an IRQ-unsafe lock we
can suffer the following inversion:
CPU0 CPU1
lock(A)
lock(X1)
lock(A)
<IRQ>
lock(X1)
And this is 'wrong' because X1 can recurse (assuming the above lock are
in fact read-lock) but lockdep doesn't know about this.

This fix ensures that we never meet an integer overflow while adding
255 while parsing a variable length encoding. It works differently from
commit 206a81c ("lzo: properly check for overruns") because instead of
ensuring that we don't overrun the input, which is tricky to guarantee
due to many assumptions in the code, it simply checks that the cumulated
number of 255 read cannot overflow by bounding this number.
The MAX_255_COUNT is the maximum number of times we can add 255 to a base
count without overflowing an integer. The multiply will overflow when
multiplying 255 by more than MAXINT/255. The sum will overflow earlier
depending on the base count. Since the base count is taken from a u8
and a few bits, it is safe to assume that it will always be lower than
or equal to 2*255, thus we can always prevent any overflow by accepting
two less 255 steps.
This patch also reduces the CPU overhead and actually increases performance
by 1.1% compared to the initial code, while the previous fix costs 3.1%
(measured on x86_64).
The fix needs to be backported to all currently supported stable kernels.

Currently, a percpu_ref which is initialized with
PERPCU_REF_INIT_ATOMIC or switched to atomic mode via
switch_to_atomic() automatically reverts to percpu mode on the first
percpu_ref_reinit(). This makes the atomic mode difficult to use for
cases where a percpu_ref is used as a persistent on/off switch which
may be cycled multiple times.
This patch makes such atomic state sticky so that it survives through

With the recent addition of percpu_ref_reinit(), percpu_ref now can be
used as a persistent switch which can be turned on and off repeatedly
where turning off maps to killing the ref and waiting for it to drain;
however, there currently isn't a way to initialize a percpu_ref in its
off (killed and drained) state, which can be inconvenient for certain
persistent switch use cases.
Similarly, percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic/percpu() allow dynamic
selection of operation mode; however, currently a newly initialized
percpu_ref is always in percpu mode making it impossible to avoid the
latency overhead of switching to atomic mode.
This patch adds @flags to percpu_ref_init() and implements the
following flags.
* PERCPU_REF_INIT_ATOMIC : start ref in atomic mode
* PERCPU_REF_INIT_DEAD : start ref killed and drained
These flags should be able to serve the above two use cases.

percpu_ref will be restructured so that percpu/atomic mode switching

For now, ATOMIC and DEAD are changed together and all PCPU_REF_ATOMIC
uses are converted to PCPU_REF_ATOMIC_DEAD without causing any
behavior changes.
percpu_ref_init() now specifies an explicit alignment when allocating
the percpu counters so that the pointer has enough unused low bits to
accomodate the flags. Note that one flag was fine as min alignment
for percpu memory is 2 bytes but two flags are already too many for
the natural alignment of unsigned longs on archs like cris and m68k.
