  • The vmalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
    factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:

    vmalloc(a * b)

    with:
    vmalloc(array_size(a, b))

    as well as handling cases of:

    vmalloc(a * b * c)

    with:

    vmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))

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

    vmalloc(4 * 1024)

    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 devm_kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, devm_kcalloc().
    This patch replaces cases of:

    devm_kzalloc(handle, a * b, gfp)

    with:
    devm_kcalloc(handle, a * b, gfp)

    as well as handling cases of:

    devm_kzalloc(handle, a * b * c, gfp)

    with:

    devm_kzalloc(handle, array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

    as it's slightly less ugly than:

    devm_kcalloc(handle, array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

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

    devm_kzalloc(handle, 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.

    Some manual whitespace fixes were needed in this patch, as Coccinelle
    really liked to write "=devm_kcalloc..." instead of "= devm_kcalloc...".

  • Pull staging/IIO updates from Greg KH:
    "Here is the big staging and IIO driver update for 4.18-rc1.

    It was delayed as I wanted to make sure the final driver deletions did
    not cause any major merge issues, and all now looks good.

    There are a lot of patches here, just over 1000. The diffstat summary
    shows the major changes here:

    1007 files changed, 16828 insertions(+), 227770 deletions(-)

    Because of this, we might be close to shrinking the overall kernel
    source code size for two releases in a row.

    There was loads of work in this release cycle, primarily:

    - tons of ks7010 driver cleanups

    - lots of mt7621 driver fixes and cleanups

    - most driver cleanups

    - wilc1000 fixes and cleanups

    - lots and lots of IIO driver cleanups and new additions

    - debugfs cleanups for all staging drivers

    - lots of other staging driver cleanups and fixes, the shortlog has
    the full details.

    but the big user-visable things here are the removal of 3 chunks of
    code:

    - ncpfs and ipx were removed on schedule, no one has cared about this
    code since it moved to staging last year, and if it needs to come
    back, it can be reverted.

    - lustre file system is removed.

    I've ranted at the lustre developers about once a year for the past
    5 years, with no real forward progress at all to clean things up
    and get the code into the "real" part of the kernel.

    Given that the lustre developers continue to work on an external
    tree and try to port those changes to the in-kernel tree every once
    in a while, this whole thing really really is not working out at
    all. So I'm deleting it so that the developers can spend the time
    working in their out-of-tree location and get things cleaned up
    properly to get merged into the tree correctly at a later date.

    Because of these file removals, you will have merge issues on some of
    these files (2 in the ipx code, 1 in the ncpfs code, and 1 in the
    atomisp driver). Just delete those files, it's a simple merge :)

    All of this has been in linux-next for a while with no reported
    problems"

  • One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
    the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
    with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:

    struct foo {
    int stuff;
    void *entry[];
    };

    instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);

    Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
    now use the new struct_size() helper:

    instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

    This patch makes the changes for kmalloc()-family (and kvmalloc()-family)
    uses. It was done via automatic conversion with manual review for the
    "CHECKME" non-standard cases noted below, using the following Coccinelle
    script:

    // pkey_cache = kmalloc(sizeof *pkey_cache + tprops->pkey_tbl_len *
    // sizeof *pkey_cache->table, GFP_KERNEL);

  • When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
    return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should
    never do something different based on this.

    Clean up the greybus camera driver by not caring about the value of
    debugfs calls. This ends up removing a number of lines of code that
    are not needed.

  • This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
    variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
    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/^\([^\"]*\)\(\\)/\\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.

  • This converts all remaining cases of the old setup_timer() API into using
    timer_setup(), where the callback argument is the structure already
    holding the struct timer_list. These should have no behavioral changes,
    since they just change which pointer is passed into the callback with
    the same available pointers after conversion. It handles the following
    examples, in addition to some other variations.

    Casting from unsigned long:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
    struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, ptr);

    and forced object casts:

    void my_callback(struct something *ptr)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, (unsigned long)ptr);

    become:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
    struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, 0);

    Direct function assignments:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
    struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr->my_timer.function = my_callback;

    have a temporary cast added, along with converting the args:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
    struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr->my_timer.function = (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE)my_callback;

    And finally, callbacks without a data assignment:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, 0);

    have their argument renamed to verify they're unused during conversion:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *unused)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, 0);

    The conversion is done with the following Coccinelle script:

    spatch --very-quiet --all-includes --include-headers \
    -I ./arch/x86/include -I ./arch/x86/include/generated \

    "Here is the "big" staging and IIO driver update for 4.15-rc1.

    Lots and lots of little changes, almost all minor code cleanups as the
    Outreachy application process happened during this development cycle.
    Also happened was a lot of IIO driver activity, and the typec USB code
    moving out of staging to drivers/usb (same commits are in the USB tree
    on a persistent branch to not cause merge issues.)

    Overall, it's a wash, I think we added a few hundred more lines than
    removed, but really only a few thousand were modified at all.

    All of these have been in linux-next for a while. There might be a
    merge issue with Al's vfs tree in the pi433 driver (take his changes,
    they are always better), and the media tree with some of the odd
    atomisp cleanups (take the media tree's version)"

  • Now that the SPDX tag is in all greybus files, that identifies the
    license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text
    wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

    This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
    the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
    like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
    needed.

    No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

  • It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
    audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

    Update the drivers/staging/greybus files files with the correct SPDX
    license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The
    SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used
    instead of the full boiler plate text.

    This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
    Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

  • Loopback has its own internal method for tracking and timing out
    asynchronous operations however previous patches make it possible to use
    functionality provided by operation.c to do this instead. Using the code in
    operation.c means we can completely subtract the timer, the work-queue, the
    kref and the cringe-worthy 'pending' flag. The completion callback
    triggered by operation.c will provide an authoritative result code -
    including -ETIMEDOUT for asynchronous operations.

  • Asynchronous operation completion handler's lives are made easier if there
    is a generic pointer that can store private data associated with the
    operation. This patch adds a pointer field to struct gb_operation and
    get/set methods to access that pointer.

  • Commit 12927835d211 ("greybus: loopback: Add asynchronous bi-directional
    support") does what it says on the tin - namely, adds support for
    asynchronous bi-directional loopback operations.

    What it neglects to do though is increment the per-connection
    gb->iteration_count on an asynchronous operation error. This patch fixes
    that omission.

  • Commit d9fb3754ecf8 ("greybus: loopback: Relax locking during loopback
    operations") changes the holding of the per-connection mutex to be less
    restrictive because at the time of that commit per-connection mutexes were
    encapsulated by a per-driver level gb_dev.mutex.

    Commit 8e1d6c336d74 ("greybus: loopback: drop bus aggregate calculation")
    on the other hand subtracts the driver level gb_dev.mutex but neglects to
    move the mutex back to the place it was prior to commit d9fb3754ecf8
    ("greybus: loopback: Relax locking during loopback operations"), as a
    result several members of the per connection struct gb_loopback are racy.

    The solution is restoring the old location of mutex_unlock(&gb->mutex) as
    it was in commit d9fb3754ecf8 ("greybus: loopback: Relax locking during
    loopback operations").

  • This driver is the only one using the deprecated timeval_to_ns()
    helper. Changing it from do_gettimeofday() to ktime_get() makes
    the code more efficient, more robust against concurrent
    settimeofday(), more accurate and lets us get rid of that helper
    in the future.

  • Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
    makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

    By default all files without license information are under the default
    license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

    Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
    SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
    shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

    This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
    Philippe Ombredanne.

    How this work was done:

    Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
    the use cases:
    - file had no licensing information it it.
    - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
    - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

    Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
    where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
    had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

    The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
    a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
    output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
    tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
    base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

    The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
    assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
    results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
    to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
    immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

    Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
    - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
    - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
    lines of source
    - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

  • Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
    "Brazil's Independence Day pull request :-)

    This is one of the biggest media pull requests, with 625 patches
    affecting almost all parts of media (RC, DVB, V4L2, CEC, docs).

    This contains:

    - A lot of new drivers:
    * DVB frontends: mxl5xx, stv0910, stv6111;
    * camera flash: as3645a led driver;
    * HDMI receiver: adv748X;
    * camera sensor: Omnivision 6650 5M driver (ov6650);
    * HDMI CEC: ao-cec meson driver;
    * V4L2: Qualcom camss driver;
    * Remote controller: gpio-ir-tx, pwm-ir-tx and zx-irdec drivers.

    - The DDbridge DVB driver got a massive update, with makes it in sync
    with modern hardware from that vendor;

    - There's an important milestone on this series: the DVB
    documentation was written in 2003, but only started to be updated
    in 2007. It also used to contain several gaps from the time it was
    kept out of tree, mentioning error codes and device nodes that
    never existed upstream. On this series, it received a massive
    update: all non-deprecated digital TV APIs are now in sync with the
    current implementation;

    - Some DVB APIs that aren't used by any upstream driver got removed;

    - Other parts of the media documentation algo got updated, fixing
    some bugs on its PDF output and making it compatible with Sphinx
    version 1.6.

    As the number of hacks required to build PDF output reduced, I hope
    we'll have less troubles as newer versions of our documentation
    toolchain are released (famous last words);

    - As usual, lots of driver cleanups and improvements"
