The inlined error messages must be used carefully because
they need to fit into the given buffer.
Handle them using a custom wrapper that makes people aware
of the problem. Also define a reasonable hard limit to
avoid a completely insane usage.

We are able to detect invalid values handled by %p[iI] printk specifier.
The current error message is "invalid address". It might cause confusion
against "(efault)" reported by the generic valid_pointer_address() check.
Let's unify the style and use the more appropriate error code description
"(einval)".

We already prevent crash when dereferencing some obviously broken
pointers. But the handling is not consistent. Sometimes we print "(null)"
only for pure NULL pointer, sometimes for pointers in the first
page and sometimes also for pointers in the last page (error codes).
Note that printk() call this code under logbuf_lock. Any recursive
printks are redirected to the printk_safe implementation and the messages
are stored into per-CPU buffers. These buffers might be eventually flushed
in printk_safe_flush_on_panic() but it is not guaranteed.
This patch adds a check using probe_kernel_read(). It is not a full-proof
test. But it should help to see the error message in 99% situations where
the kernel would silently crash otherwise.
Also it makes the error handling unified for "%s" and the many %p*
specifiers that need to read the data from a given address. We print:
+ (null) when accessing data on pure pure NULL address
+ (efault) when accessing data on an invalid address
It does not affect the %p* specifiers that just print the given address
in some form, namely %pF, %pf, %pS, %ps, %pB, %pK, %px, and plain %p.
Note that we print (efault) from security reasons. In fact, the real
address can be seen only by %px or eventually %pK.

There are few printk formats that make sense only with two or more
specifiers. Also some specifiers make sense only when a kernel feature
is enabled.
The handling of unknown specifiers is inconsistent and not helpful.
Using WARN() looks like an overkill for this type of error. pr_warn()
is not good either. It would by handled via printk_safe buffer and
it might be hard to match it with the problematic string.
A reasonable compromise seems to be writing the unknown format specifier
into the original string with a question mark, for example (%pC?).
It should be self-explaining enough. Note that it is in brackets
to follow the (null) style.
Note that it introduces a warning about that test_hashed() function
is unused. It is going to be used again by a later patch.

restricted_pointer() pretends that it prints the address when kptr_restrict
is set to zero. But it is never called in this situation. Instead,
pointer() falls back to ptr_to_id() and hashes the pointer.
This patch removes the potential confusion. klp_restrict is checked only
in restricted_pointer().
It actually fixes a small race when the address might get printed unhashed:
CPU0 CPU1
pointer()
if (!kptr_restrict)
/* for example set to 2 */
restricted_pointer()
/* echo 0 >/proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict */
proc_dointvec_minmax_sysadmin()
klpr_restrict = 0;
switch(kptr_restrict)
case 0:
break:
number()

When converting from text to rst, the kobjects section and its sole
subsection about device tree nodes were coalesced into a single section,
yielding an inconsistent result.
Remove all references to kobjects, as
1. Device tree object pointers are not compatible to kobject pointers
(the former may embed the latter, though), and
2. there are no printk formats defined for kobject types.
Update the vsprintf() source code comments to match the above.

The functions vbin_printf() and bstr_printf() are used by trace_printk() to
try to keep the overhead down during printing. trace_printk() uses
vbin_printf() at the time of execution, as it only scans the fmt string to
record the printf values into the buffer, and then uses vbin_printf() to do
the conversions to print the string based on the format and the saved
values in the buffer.
This is an issue for dereferenced pointers, as before commit 841a915d20,
the processing of the pointer could happen some time after the pointer value
was recorded (reading the trace buffer). This means the processing of the
value at a later time could show different results, or even crash the
system, if the pointer no longer existed.
Commit 841a915d20 addressed this by processing dereferenced pointers at
the time of execution and save the result in the ring buffer as a string.
The bstr_printf() would then treat these pointers as normal strings, and
print the value. But there was an off-by-one bug here, where after
processing the argument, it move the pointer only "strlen(arg)" which made
the arg pointer not point to the next argument in the ring buffer, but
instead point to the nul character of the last argument. This causes any
values after a dereferenced pointer to be corrupted.

Currently printing [hashed] pointers requires enough entropy to be
available. Early in the boot sequence this may not be the case
resulting in a dummy string '(____ptrval____)' being printed. This
makes debugging the early boot sequence difficult. We can relax the
requirement to use cryptographically secure hashing during debugging.
This enables debugging while keeping development/production kernel
behaviour the same.
If new command line option debug_boot_weak_hash is enabled use
cryptographically insecure hashing and hash pointer value immediately.

Reviewing Tobin's patches for getting pointers out early before
entropy has been established, I noticed that there's a lone smp_mb() in
the code. As with most lone memory barriers, this one appears to be
incorrectly used.
We currently basically have this:
get_random_bytes(&ptr_key, sizeof(ptr_key));
/*
* have_filled_random_ptr_key==true is dependent on get_random_bytes().
* ptr_to_id() needs to see have_filled_random_ptr_key==true
* after get_random_bytes() returns.
*/
smp_mb();
WRITE_ONCE(have_filled_random_ptr_key, true);
And later we have:
if (unlikely(!have_filled_random_ptr_key))
return string(buf, end, "(ptrval)", spec);
/* Missing memory barrier here. */
hashval = (unsigned long)siphash_1u64((u64)ptr, &ptr_key);
As the CPU can perform speculative loads, we could have a situation
with the following:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
load ptr_key = 0
store ptr_key = random
smp_mb()
store have_filled_random_ptr_key
load have_filled_random_ptr_key = true
BAD BAD BAD! (you're so bad!)
Because nothing prevents CPU1 from loading ptr_key before loading
have_filled_random_ptr_key.
But this race is very unlikely, but we can't keep an incorrect smp_mb() in
place. Instead, replace the have_filled_random_ptr_key with a static_branch
not_filled_random_ptr_key, that is initialized to true and changed to false
when we get enough entropy. If the update happens in early boot, the
static_key is updated immediately, otherwise it will have to wait till
entropy is filled and this happens in an interrupt handler which can't
enable a static_key, as that requires a preemptible context. In that case, a
work_queue is used to enable it, as entropy already took too long to
establish in the first place waiting a little more shouldn't hurt anything.
The benefit of using the static key is that the unlikely branch in
vsprintf() now becomes a nop.

Before crng is ready, output of "%p" composes of "(ptrval)" and
left padding spaces for alignment as no random address can be
generated. This seems a little strange when default string width
is larger than strlen("(ptrval)").
For example, when irq domain names are built with "%p", the nodes
under /sys/kernel/debug/irq/domains like this on AArch64 system,
[root@y irq]# ls domains/
default irqchip@ (ptrval)-2
irqchip@ (ptrval)-4 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC1 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC3
irqchip@ (ptrval) irqchip@ (ptrval)-3
\_SB_.TCS0.QIC0 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC2
The name "irqchip@ (ptrval)-2" is not so readable in console
output.
This patch replaces space with readable "_" when output needs padding.
Following is the output after applying the patch,
[root@y domains]# ls
default irqchip@(____ptrval____)-2
irqchip@(____ptrval____)-4 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC1 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC3
irqchip@(____ptrval____) irqchip@(____ptrval____)-3 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC0
\_SB_.TCS0.QIC2
There is same problem in some subsystem's dmesg output. Moreover,
someone may call "%p" in a similar case. In addition, the timing of
crng initialization done may vary on different system. So, the change
is made in vsprintf.c.

Like %pK already does, print "00000000" instead.
This confused people -- the convention is that "(null)" means you tried to
dereference a null pointer as opposed to printing the address.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

There's not much changes for the tracing system this release.
Mostly small clean ups and fixes.
The biggest change is to how bprintf works. bprintf is used by
trace_printk() to just save the format and args of a printf call,
and the formatting is done when the trace buffer is read. This is
done to keep the formatting out of the fast path (this was recommended
by you). The issue is when arguments are de-referenced.
If a pointer is saved, and the format has something like "%*pbl",
when the buffer is read, it will de-reference the argument then.
The problem is if the data no longer exists. This can cause the
kernel to oops.
The fix for this was to make these de-reference pointes do
the formatting at the time it is called (the fast path), as
this guarantees that the data exists (and doesn't change later)

vsprintf: Do not have bprintf dereference pointers
ftrace: Mark function tracer test functions noinline/noclone
trace_uprobe: Display correct offset in uprobe_events
tracing: Make sure the parsed string always terminates with '\0'
tracing: Clear parser->idx if only spaces are read
tracing: Detect the string nul character when parsing user input string
When trace_printk() was introduced, it was discussed that making it be as
low overhead as possible, that the processing of the format string should be
delayed until it is read. That is, a "trace_printk()" should not convert
the %d into numbers and so on, but instead, save the fmt string and all the
args in the buffer at the time of recording. When the trace_printk() data is
read, it would then parse the format string and do the conversions of the
saved arguments in the tracing buffer.
The code to perform this was added to vsprintf where vbin_printf() would
save the arguments of a specified format string in a buffer, then
bstr_printf() could be used to convert the buffer with the same format
string into the final output, as if vsprintf() was called in one go.
The issue arises when dereferenced pointers are used. The problem is that
something like %*pbl which reads a bitmask, will save the pointer to the
bitmask in the buffer. Then the reading of the buffer via bstr_printf() will
then look at the pointer to process the final output. Obviously the value of
that pointer could have changed since the time it was recorded to the time
the buffer is read. Worse yet, the bitmask could be unmapped, and the
reading of the trace buffer could actually cause a kernel oops.
Another problem is that user space tools such as perf and trace-cmd do not
have access to the contents of these pointers, and they become useless when
the tracing buffer is extracted.
Instead of having vbin_printf() simply save the pointer in the buffer for
later processing, have it perform the formatting at the time bin_printf() is
called. This will fix the issue of dereferencing pointers at a later time,
and has the extra benefit of having user space tools understand these
values.
Since perf and trace-cmd already can handle %p[sSfF] via saving kallsyms,
their pointers are saved and not processed during vbin_printf(). If they
were converted, it would break perf and trace-cmd, as they would not know
how to deal with the conversion.

dereference_symbol_descriptor() invokes appropriate ARCH specific
function descriptor dereference callbacks:
- dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() if the pointer is a
kernel symbol;
- dereference_module_function_descriptor() if the pointer is a
module symbol.
This is the last step needed to make '%pS/%ps' smart enough to
handle function descriptor dereference on affected ARCHs and
to retire '%pF/%pf'.
To refresh it:
Some architectures (ia64, ppc64, parisc64) use an indirect pointer
for C function pointers - the function pointer points to a function
descriptor and we need to dereference it to get the actual function
pointer.
Function descriptors live in .opd elf section and all affected
ARCHs (ia64, ppc64, parisc64) handle it properly for kernel and
modules. So we, technically, can decide if the dereference is
needed by simply looking at the pointer: if it belongs to .opd
section then we need to dereference it.
The kernel and modules have their own .opd sections, obviously,
that's why we need to split dereference_function_descriptor()
and use separate kernel and module dereference arch callbacks.

Instead, just fall back on the new '%p' behavior which hashes the
pointer.
Otherwise, '%pK' - that was intended to mark a pointer as restricted -
just ends up leaking pointers that a normal '%p' wouldn't leak. Which
just make the whole thing pointless.
I suspect we should actually get rid of '%pK' entirely, and make it just
work as '%p' regardless, but this is the minimal obvious fix. People
who actually use 'kptr_restrict' should weigh in on which behavior they
want.

printk specifier %p now hashes all addresses before printing. Sometimes
we need to see the actual unmodified address. This can be achieved using
%lx but then we face the risk that if in future we want to change the
way the Kernel handles printing of pointers we will have to grep through
the already existent 50 000 %lx call sites. Let's add specifier %px as a
clear, opt-in, way to print a pointer and maintain some level of
isolation from all the other hex integer output within the Kernel.
Add printk specifier %px to print the actual unmodified address.
Signed-off-by: Tobin C. Harding <me@tobin.cc>
Currently there exist approximately 14 000 places in the kernel where
addresses are being printed using an unadorned %p. This potentially
leaks sensitive information regarding the Kernel layout in memory. Many
of these calls are stale, instead of fixing every call lets hash the
address by default before printing. This will of course break some
users, forcing code printing needed addresses to be updated.
Code that _really_ needs the address will soon be able to use the new
printk specifier %px to print the address.
For what it's worth, usage of unadorned %p can be broken down as
follows (thanks to Joe Perches).

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:
----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()

90% of the usage of device node's full_name is printing it out in a
kernel message. However, storing the full path for every node is
wasteful and redundant. With a custom format specifier, we can generate
the full path at run-time and eventually remove the full path from every
node.
For instance typical use is:
pr_info("Frobbing node %s\n", node->full_name);
Which can be written now as:
pr_info("Frobbing node %pOF\n", node);
'%pO' is the base specifier to represent kobjects with '%pOF'
representing struct device_node. Currently, struct device_node is the
only supported type of kobject.
More fine-grained control of formatting includes printing the name,
flags, path-spec name and others, explained in the documentation entry.

now, but will hopefully go away soon. The exception to that are the _cmp

get the new names.
Also the _to_bin helpers are named to match the better named uuid_parse

Implement basic character sets for the '%[' conversion specifier.
The '%[' conversion specifier matches a nonempty sequence of characters
from the specified set of accepted (or with '^', rejected) characters
between the brackets. The substring matched is to be made up of
characters in (or not in) the set. This is useful for matching
substrings that are delimited by something other than spaces.
This implementation differs from its glibc counterpart in the following ways:
(1) No support for character ranges (e.g., 'a-z' or '0-9')
(2) The hyphen '-' is not a special character
(3) The closing bracket ']' cannot be matched
(4) No support (yet) for discarding matching input ('%*[')
The bitmap code is largely based upon sample code which was provided by
Rasmus.
The motivation for adding character set support to sscanf originally
stemmed from the kernel livepatching project. An ongoing patchset
utilizes new livepatch Elf symbol and section names to store important
metadata livepatch needs to properly apply its patches. Such metadata
is stored in these section and symbol names as substrings delimited by
periods '.' and commas ','. For example, a livepatch symbol name might
look like this:
.klp.sym.vmlinux.printk,0
However, sscanf currently can only extract "substrings" delimited by
whitespace using the "%s" specifier. Thus for the above symbol name,
one cannot not use sscanf() to extract substrings "vmlinux" or
"printk", for example. A number of discussions on the livepatch
mailing list dealing with string parsing code for extracting these '.'
and ',' delimited substrings eventually led to the conclusion that such
code would be completely unnecessary if the kernel sscanf() supported
character sets. Thus only a single sscanf() call would be necessary to
extract these substrings. In addition, such an addition to sscanf()
could benefit other areas of the kernel that might have a similar need
in the future.

In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed
for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make
them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we
want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done
with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not
usable for e.g. sysfs export.
To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends
printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp),
gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of
dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified.
It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the
%p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel
structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a
non-critical path is negligible.

The kptr_restrict flag, when set to 1, only prints the kernel address
when the user has CAP_SYSLOG. When it is set to 2, the kernel address
is always printed as zero. When set to 1, this needs to check whether
or not we're in IRQ.
However, when set to 2, this check is unneccessary, and produces
confusing results in dmesg. Thus, only make sure we're not in IRQ when
mode 1 is used, but not mode 2.

special_hex_number() is a helper to print a fixed size type in a hex
format with '0x' prefix, zero padding, and small letters. In the module
we have already several copies of such code. Consolidate them under
special_hex_number() helper.
There are couple of differences though.
It seems nobody cared about the output in case of CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n,
when printing symbol address, because the asked field width is not
enough to care last 2 characters in the string represantation of the
pointer. Fixed here.
The %pNF specifier used to be allowed with a specific field width,

The field width is overloaded to pass some extra information for some %p
extensions (e.g. #bits for %pb). But we might silently truncate the
passed value when we stash it in struct printf_spec (see e.g.
"lib/vsprintf.c: expand field_width to 24 bits"). Hopefully 23 value
bits should now be enough for everybody, but if not, let's make some
noise.
Do the same for the precision. In both cases, clamping seems more
sensible than truncating. While, according to POSIX, "A negative
precision is taken as if the precision were omitted.", the kernel's
printf has always treated that case as if the precision was 0, so we use
that as lower bound. For the field width, the smallest representable
value is actually -(1<<23), but a negative field width means 'set the
LEFT flag and use the absolute value', so we want the absolute value to
fit.

One consequence of the reorganization of struct printf_spec to make
field_width 24 bits was that number() gained about 180 bytes. Since
spec is never passed to other functions, we can help gcc make number()
lose most of that extra weight by using local variables for the field
width and precision.

Maurizio Lombardi reported a problem [1] with the %pb extension: It
doesn't work for sufficiently large bitmaps, since the size is stashed
in the field_width field of the struct printf_spec, which is currently
an s16. Concretely, this manifested itself in
/sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/map being empty, since the bitmap
printer got a size of 0, which is the 16 bit truncation of the actual
bitmap size.
We do want to keep struct printf_spec at 8 bytes so that it can cheaply
be passed by value. The qualifier field is only used for internal
bookkeeping in format_decode, so we might as well use a local variable
for that. This gives us an additional 8 bits, which we can then use for
the field width.
To stay in 8 bytes, we need to do a little rearranging and make the type
member a bitfield as well. For consistency, change all the members to
bit fields. gcc doesn't generate much worse code with these changes (in
fact, bloat-o-meter says we save 300 bytes - which I think is a little
surprising).
I didn't find a BUILD_BUG/compiletime_assertion/... which would work
outside function context, so for now I just open-coded it.

If the string corresponding to a %s specifier can change under us, we
might end up copying a \0 byte to the output buffer. There might be
callers who expect the output buffer to contain a genuine C string whose
length is exactly the snprintf return value (assuming truncation hasn't
happened or has been checked for).
We can avoid this by only passing over the source string once, stopping
the first time we meet a nul byte (or when we reach the given
precision), and then letting widen_string() handle left/right space
padding. As a small bonus, this code reuse also makes the generated
code slightly smaller.

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.

The most expensive part of decimal conversion is the divisions by 10
(albeit done using reciprocal multiplication with appropriately chosen
constants). I decided to see if one could eliminate around half of
these multiplications by emitting two digits at a time, at the cost of a
200 byte lookup table, and it does indeed seem like there is something
to be gained, especially on 64 bits. Microbenchmarking shows
improvements ranging from -50% (for numbers uniformly distributed in [0,
2^64-1]) to -25% (for numbers heavily biased toward the smaller end, a
more realistic distribution).
On a larger scale, perf shows that top, one of the big consumers of /proc
data, uses 0.5-1.0% fewer cpu cycles.
I had to jump through some hoops to get the 32 bit code to compile and run
on my 64 bit machine, so I'm not sure how relevant these numbers are, but
just for comparison the microbenchmark showed improvements between -30%
and -10%.
The bloat-o-meter costs are around 150 bytes (the generated code is a
little smaller, so it's not the full 200 bytes) on both 32 and 64 bit.
I'm aware that extra cache misses won't show up in a microbenchmark as
used above, but on the other hand decimal conversions often happen in bulk
(for example in the case of top).
I have of course tested that the new code generates the same output as the
old, for both the first and last 1e10 numbers in [0,2^64-1] and 4e9
'random' numbers in-between.

The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its
current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must
know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and
string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a
large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and
that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf).
So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like:
Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination
buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst
it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination.
It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to
append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences,
otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause
printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever
they previously contained.
This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used
to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem();
since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would
happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and
then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops.
In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for
getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We
also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref)
if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for
kasprintf("%pE") to work.
In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics.
Someone should definitely double-check this.
In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it
should stop poking around in seq_file internals.

The helper hex_string() is broken in two ways. First, it doesn't
increment buf regardless of whether there is room to print, so callers
such as kasprintf() that try to probe the correct storage to allocate will
get a too small return value. But even worse, kasprintf() (and likely
anyone else trying to find the size of the result) pass NULL for buf and 0
for size, so we also have end == NULL. But this means that the end-1 in
hex_string() is (char*)-1, so buf < end-1 is true and we get a NULL
pointer deref. I double-checked this with a trivial kernel module that
just did a kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%14ph", "CrashBoomBang").
Nobody seems to be using %ph with kasprintf, but we might as well fix it
before it hits someone.

Since FORMAT_TYPE_INT is simply 1 more than FORMAT_TYPE_UINT, and
similarly for BYTE/UBYTE, SHORT/USHORT, LONG/ULONG, we can eliminate a few
instructions by making SIGN have the value 1 instead of 2, and then use
arithmetic instead of branches for computing the right spec->type. It's a
little hacky, but certainly in the same spirit as SMALL needing to have
the value 0x20. For example for the spec->qualifier == 'l' case, gcc now
generates
75e: 0f b6 53 01 movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx
762: 83 e2 01 and $0x1,%edx
765: 83 c2 09 add $0x9,%edx
768: 88 13 mov %dl,(%rbx)
instead of
763: 0f b6 53 01 movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx
767: 83 e2 02 and $0x2,%edx
76a: 80 fa 01 cmp $0x1,%dl
76d: 19 d2 sbb %edx,%edx
76f: 83 c2 0a add $0xa,%edx
772: 88 13 mov %dl,(%rbx)

bitmap and its derivatives such as cpumask and nodemask currently only
provide formatting functions which put the output string into the
provided buffer; however, how long this buffer should be isn't defined
anywhere and given that some of these bitmaps can be too large to be
formatted into an on-stack buffer it users sometimes are unnecessarily
forced to come up with creative solutions and compromises for the
buffer just to printk these bitmaps.
There have been a couple different attempts at making this easier.
1. Way back, PeterZ tried printk '%pb' extension with the precision
for bit width - '%.*pb'. This was intuitive and made sense but
unfortunately triggered a compile warning about using precision
for a pointer.
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1336577562.2527.58.camel@twins
2. I implemented bitmap_pr_cont[_list]() and its wrappers for cpumask
and nodemask. This works but PeterZ pointed out that pr_cont's
tendency to produce broken lines when multiple CPUs are printing is
bothering considering the usages.
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1418226774-30215-3-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org
So, this patch is another attempt at teaching printk and friends how
to print bitmaps. It's almost identical to what PeterZ tried with
precision but it uses the field width for the number of bits instead
of precision. The format used is '%*pb[l]', with the optional
trailing 'l' specifying list format instead of hex masks.
This is a valid format string and doesn't trigger compiler warnings;
however, it does make it impossible to specify output field width when
printing bitmaps. I think this is an acceptable trade-off given how
much easier it makes printing bitmaps and that we don't have any
in-kernel user which is using the field width specification. If any
future user wants to use field width with a bitmap, it'd have to
format the bitmap into a string buffer and then print that buffer with
width spec, which isn't different from how it should be done now.
This patch implements bitmap[_list]_string() which are called from the
vsprintf pointer() formatting function. The implementation is mostly
identical to bitmap_scn[list]printf() except that the output is
performed in the vsprintf way. These functions handle formatting into
too small buffers and sprintf() family of functions report the correct
overrun output length.
bitmap_scn[list]printf() are now thin wrappers around scnprintf().

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.

This allows user to print a given buffer as an escaped string. The
rules are applied according to an optional mix of flags provided by
additional format letters.
For example, if the given buffer is:
1b 62 20 5c 43 07 22 90 0d 5d
The result strings would be:
%*pE "\eb \C\a"\220\r]"
%*pEhp "\x1bb \C\x07"\x90\x0d]"
%*pEa "\e\142\040\\\103\a\042\220\r\135"
Please, read Documentation/printk-formats.txt and lib/string_helpers.c
kernel documentation to get further information.

All in-kernel users of %n in format strings have now been removed and
the %n directive is ignored. Remove the handling of %n so that it is
treated the same as any other invalid format string directive. Keep a
warning in place to deter new instances of %n in format strings.

Sometimes we have a struct resource where we know the type (MEM/IO/etc.)
and the size, but we haven't assigned address space for it. The
IORESOURCE_UNSET flag is a way to indicate this situation. For these
"unset" resources, the start address is meaningless, so print only the
size, e.g.,
- pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem 0x00000000-0x00001fff 64bit]
+ pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem size 0x2000 64bit]
For %pr (printing with raw flags), we still print the address range,
because %pr is mostly used for debugging anyway.
Thanks to Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> for suggesting
resource_size().

dma_addr_t's can be either u32 or u64 depending on a CONFIG option.
There are a few hundred dma_addr_t's printed via either cast to unsigned
long long, unsigned long or no cast at all.
Add %pad to be able to emit them without the cast.
Update Documentation/printk-formats.txt too.

This ignores %n in printf again, as was originally documented.
Implementing %n poses a greater security risk than utility, so it should
stay ignored. To help anyone attempting to use %n, a warning will be
emitted if it is encountered.
Based on an earlier patch by Joe Perches.
Because %n was designed to write to pointers on the stack, it has been
frequently used as an attack vector when bugs are found that leak
user-controlled strings into functions that ultimately process format
strings. While this class of bug can still be turned into an
information leak, removing %n eliminates the common method of elevating
such a bug into an arbitrary kernel memory writing primitive,
significantly reducing the danger of this class of bug.
For seq_file users that need to know the length of a written string for
padding, please see seq_setwidth() and seq_pad() instead.
