The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections.But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy - Linus ]Cc: Al Viro

Pull aio updates from Al Viro:
"Majority of AIO stuff this cycle. aio-fsync and aio-poll, mostly.The only thing I'm holding back for a day or so is Adam's aio ioprio -
his last-minute fixup is trivial (missing stub in !CONFIG_BLOCK case),
but let it sit in -next for decency sake..."* 'work.aio-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (46 commits)
aio: sanitize the limit checking in io_submit(2)
aio: fold do_io_submit() into callers
aio: shift copyin of iocb into io_submit_one()
aio_read_events_ring(): make a bit more readable
aio: all callers of aio_{read,write,fsync,poll} treat 0 and -EIOCBQUEUED the same way
aio: take list removal to (some) callers of aio_complete()

Changes since v1:
Added changes in these files:
drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_transport.c
drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/lib-socket.c
drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_login.c
drivers/vhost/net.c
fs/dlm/lowcomms.c
fs/ocfs2/cluster/tcp.c
security/tomoyo/network.cBefore:
All these functions either return a negative error indicator,
or store length of sockaddr into "int *socklen" parameter
and return zero on success."int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not
care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value
it does not need.None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols
ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it.This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success,
return length of sockaddr. It's always >= 0 and can be differentiated
from an error.Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err < 0)", where needed.
rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was
to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &buflen and subsequently
not used in any way.Userspace API is not changed.

/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years.
Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e1612f0b0adb6046f19b906609e4fe8b1ba
("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where
inode->i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for
regular files:- if (de->proc_fops)
- inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops;
+ if (de->proc_fops) {
+ if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode))
+ inode->i_fop = &proc_reg_file_ops;
+ else
+ inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops;
+ }VFS stopped pinning module at this point.

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:

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

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.
In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement. Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170103230126.GA30170@avx2

Setting just skb->sk without taking its reference and setting a
destructor is invalid. However, in the places where this was done, skb
is used in a way not requiring skb->sk setting. So dropping the setting
of skb->sk.
Thanks to Eric Dumazet for correct solution.Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79441

Define separate fields in the sock structure for configuring disabling
checksums in both TX and RX-- sk_no_check_tx and sk_no_check_rx.
The SO_NO_CHECK socket option only affects sk_no_check_tx. Also,
removed UDP_CSUM_* defines since they are no longer necessary.Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert

This is a follow-up patch to f3d3342602f8bc ("net: rework recvmsg
handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic").DECLARE_SOCKADDR validates that the structure we use for writing the
name information to is not larger than the buffer which is reserved
for msg->msg_name (which is 128 bytes). Also use DECLARE_SOCKADDR
consistently in sendmsg code paths.Signed-off-by: Steffen Hurrle

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:
