  • b67bfe0d4   hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators ... Browse Code »

    I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

    list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

    The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

    hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

    Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
    they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
    exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

    Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

    - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
    - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
    - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
    was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
    - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
    properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

    The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

  • 0ca7a4c87   net ax25: Simplify and cleanup the ax25 sysctl handling. ... Browse Code »

    Don't register/unregister every ax25 table in a batch. Instead register
    and unregister per device ax25 sysctls as ax25 devices come and go.

    This moves ax25 to be a completely modern sysctl user. Registering the
    sysctls in just the initial network namespace, removing the use of
    .child entries that are no longer natively supported by the sysctl core
    and taking advantage of the fact that there are no longer any ordering
    constraints between registering and unregistering different sysctl
    tables.

  • 5a0e3ad6a   include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implic… ... Browse Code »

    …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

    For the common, open coded 'skb->mac.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can
    later turn skb->mac.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
    64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

    This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more
    "complex" cases.

    Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
    moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
    dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
    these shared resources.

  • c7c694d19   [AX.25]: Fix potencial memory hole. ... Browse Code »

    If the AX.25 dialect chosen by the sysadmin is set to DAMA master / 3
    (or DAMA slave / 2, if CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE=n) ax25_kick() will fall
    through the switch statement without calling ax25_send_iframe() or any
    other function that would eventually free skbn thus leaking the packet.

    Fix by restricting the sysctl inferface to allow only actually supported
    AX.25 dialects.

    The system administration mistake needed for this to happen is rather
    unlikely, so this is an uncritical hole.

    Coverity #651.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
