Similarly to type mismatch checks, new GCC 8.x and Clang also changed for
ABI for returns_nonnull checks. While we can update our code to conform
the new ABI it's more reasonable to just remove it. Because it's just
dead code, we don't have any single user of returns_nonnull attribute in
the whole kernel.
And AFAIU the advantage that this attribute could bring would be mitigated
by -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks cflag that we use to build the kernel.
So it's unlikely we will have a lot of returns_nonnull attribute in
future.
So let's just remove the code, it has no use.

UBSAN=y fails to build with new GCC/clang:

arch/x86/include/asm/bootparam_utils.h:37: undefined reference to `__ubsan_handle_type_mismatch_v1'
because Clang and GCC 8 slightly changed ABI for 'type mismatch' errors.
Compiler now uses new __ubsan_handle_type_mismatch_v1() function with
slightly modified 'struct type_mismatch_data'.
Let's add new 'struct type_mismatch_data_common' which is independent from
compiler's layout of 'struct type_mismatch_data'. And make
__ubsan_handle_type_mismatch[_v1]() functions transform compiler-dependent
type mismatch data to our internal representation. This way, we can
support both old and new compilers with minimal amount of change.

test_sort.c performs array-based and linked list sort test. Code allows
to compile either as a loadable modules or builtin into the kernel.
Current code is not allow to unload the test_sort.ko module after
successful completion.
This patch adds support to unload the "test_sort.ko" module by adding
module_exit support.
Previous patch was implemented auto unload support by returning -EAGAIN
from module_init() function on successful case, but this approach is not
ideal.
The auto-unload might seem like a nice optimization, but it encourages
inconsistent behaviour. And behaviour that is different from all other
normal modules.

This patchset replaces bitmap_{to,from}_u32array with more simple and
standard looking copy-like functions.
bitmap_from_u32array() takes 4 arguments (bitmap_to_u32array is similar):
- unsigned long *bitmap, which is destination;
- unsigned int nbits, the length of destination bitmap, in bits;
- const u32 *buf, the source; and
- unsigned int nwords, the length of source buffer in ints.
In description to the function it is detailed like:
* copy min(nbits, 32*nwords) bits from @buf to @bitmap, remaining
* bits between nword and nbits in @bitmap (if any) are cleared.
Having two size arguments looks unneeded and potentially dangerous.
It is unneeded because normally user of copy-like function should take
care of the size of destination and make it big enough to fit source
data.
And it is dangerous because function may hide possible error if user
doesn't provide big enough bitmap, and data becomes silently dropped.
That's why all copy-like functions have 1 argument for size of copying
data, and I don't see any reason to make bitmap_from_u32array()
different.
One exception that comes in mind is strncpy() which also provides size
of destination in arguments, but it's strongly argued by the possibility
of taking broken strings in source. This is not the case of
bitmap_{from,to}_u32array().
There is no many real users of bitmap_{from,to}_u32array(), and they all
very clearly provide size of destination matched with the size of
source, so additional functionality is not used in fact. Like this:
bitmap_from_u32array(to->link_modes.supported,
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS,
link_usettings.link_modes.supported,
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NU32);
Where:
#define __ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NU32 \
DIV_ROUND_UP(__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS, 32)
In this patch, bitmap_copy_safe and bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 are introduced.
'Safe' in bitmap_copy_safe() stands for clearing unused bits in bitmap
beyond last bit till the end of last word. It is useful for hardening
API when bitmap is assumed to be exposed to userspace.
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 functions are replacements for
bitmap_{from,to}_u32array. They don't take unneeded nwords argument, and
so simpler in implementation and understanding.
This patch suggests optimization for 32-bit systems - aliasing
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 to bitmap_copy_safe.
Other possible optimization is aliasing 64-bit LE bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 to
more generic function(s). But I didn't end up with the function that would
be helpful by itself, and can be used to alias 64-bit LE
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32, like bitmap_copy_safe() does. So I preferred to
leave things as is.
The following patch switches kernel to new API and introduces test for it.
Discussion is here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/592

Patch series "kasan: detect invalid frees".
KASAN detects double-frees, but does not detect invalid-frees (when a
pointer into a middle of heap object is passed to free). We recently had
a very unpleasant case in crypto code which freed an inner object inside
of a heap allocation. This left unnoticed during free, but totally
corrupted heap and later lead to a bunch of random crashes all over kernel
code.
Detect invalid frees.
This patch (of 5):
Detect frees of pointers into middle of large heap objects.
I dropped const from kasan_kfree_large() because it starts propagating
through a bunch of functions in kasan_report.c, slab/slub nearest_obj(),
all of their local variables, fixup_red_left(), etc.

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)

Merge KASAN word-at-a-time fixups from Andrey Ryabinin.
The word-at-a-time optimizations have caused headaches for KASAN, since
the whole point is that we access byte streams in bigger chunks, and
KASAN can be unhappy about the potential extra access at the end of the
string.
We used to have a horrible hack in dcache, and then people got
complaints from the strscpy() case. This fixes it all up properly, by
adding an explicit helper for the "access byte stream one word at a
time" case.
* emailed patches from Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com>:
fs: dcache: Revert "manually unpoison dname after allocation to shut up kasan's reports"
fs/dcache: Use read_word_at_a_time() in dentry_string_cmp()
lib/strscpy: Shut up KASAN false-positives in strscpy()
compiler.h: Add read_word_at_a_time() function.
compiler.h, kasan: Avoid duplicating __read_once_size_nocheck()
strscpy() performs the word-at-a-time optimistic reads. So it may may
access the memory past the end of the object, which is perfectly fine
since strscpy() doesn't use that (past-the-end) data and makes sure the
optimistic read won't cross a page boundary.
Use new read_word_at_a_time() to shut up the KASAN.
Note that this potentially could hide some bugs. In example bellow,
stscpy() will copy more than we should (1-3 extra uninitialized bytes):
char dst[8];
char *src;
src = kmalloc(5, GFP_KERNEL);
memset(src, 0xff, 5);
strscpy(dst, src, 8);

"Documentation updates for 4.16.
New stuff includes refcount_t documentation, errseq documentation,
kernel-doc support for nested structure definitions, the removal of
lots of crufty kernel-doc support for unused formats, SPDX tag
documentation, the beginnings of a manual for subsystem maintainers,
and lots of fixes and updates.
As usual, some of the changesets reach outside of Documentation/ to
effect kerneldoc comment fixes. It also adds the new LICENSES
directory, of which Thomas promises I do not need to be the
maintainer"

- Support for blk-throttle for tracking reads and writes separately.
From Joseph Qi. A few cleanups/fixes also for blk-throttle from

- Series from Mike Snitzer that enables dm to register its queue more
logically, something that's alwways been problematic on dm since
it's a stacked device.
- Series from Ming cleaning up some of the bio accessor use, in
preparation for supporting multipage bvecs.
- Various fixes from Ming closing up holes around queue mapping and
quiescing.
- BSD partition fix from Richard Narron, fixing a problem where we
can't mount newer (10/11) FreeBSD partitions.
- Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous
scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think
a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time.
- null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better
exercise and test that functionality separately. From me.
- Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After
this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all. From

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.

Make it possible to call these two functions from a kernel module.
Note: despite their name, these two functions can be used meaningfully
independent of kobjects. A later patch will add calls to these
functions from the SRP driver because this patch series modifies the
SRP driver such that it can hold a reference to a namespace that can
last longer than the lifetime of the process through which the
namespace reference was obtained.

Add a couple of test cases for interpreter and JIT that are
related to an issue we faced some time ago in Cilium [1],
which is fixed in LLVM with commit e53750e1e086 ("bpf: fix
bug on silently truncating 64-bit immediate").
Test cases were run-time checking kernel to behave as intended
which should also provide some guidance for current or new
JITs in case they should trip over this. Added for cBPF and
eBPF.

Factor out a new swiotlb_alloc_buffer helper that allocates DMA coherent
memory from the swiotlb bounce buffer.
This allows to simplify the swiotlb_alloc implemenation that uses
dma_direct_alloc to try to allocate a reachable buffer first.

Factor out a new swiotlb_free_buffer helper that checks if an address
is allocated from the swiotlb bounce buffer, and if yes frees it.
This allows to simplify the swiotlb_free implemenation that uses
dma_direct_free to free the non-bounce buffer allocations.

Currently all architectures that want to use swiotlb have to implement
their own dma_map_ops instances. Provide a generic one based on the
x86 implementation which first calls into dma_direct to try a full blown
direct mapping implementation (including e.g. CMA) before falling back
allocating from the swiotlb buffer.

TTM tries to allocate coherent memory in chunks of 2MB first to improve
TLB efficiency and falls back to allocating 4K pages if that fails.
Suppress the warning when the 2MB allocations fails since there is a
valid fall back path.
