This commit updates the section on LKMM limitations to no longer say
that SRCU is not modeled, but instead describe how LKMM's modeling of
SRCU departs from the Linux-kernel implementation.TL;DR: There is no known valid use case that cares about the Linux
kernel's ability to have partially overlapping SRCU read-side critical
sections.Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney
Acked-by: Andrea Parri -
Add support for SRCU. Herd creates srcu events and linux-kernel.def
associates them with three possible annotations (srcu-lock,
srcu-unlock, and sync-srcu) corresponding to the API routines
srcu_read_lock(), srcu_read_unlock(), and synchronize_srcu().The linux-kernel.bell file now declares the annotations
and determines matching lock/unlock pairs delimiting SRCU read-side
critical sections, and it also checks for synchronize_srcu() calls
inside an RCU critical section (which would generate a "sleeping in
atomic context" error in real kernel code). The linux-kernel.cat file
now adds SRCU-induced ordering, analogous to the existing RCU-induced
ordering, to the gp and rcu-fence relations.Curiously enough, these small changes to the model's .cat code are all
that is needed to describe SRCU.Portions of this patch (linux-kernel.def and the first hunk in
linux-kernel.bell) were written by Luc Maranget.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

In preparation for adding support for SRCU, refactor the definitions
of rcu-fence, rcu-rscsi, rcu-link, and rb by moving the po and po?
terms from the first two to the second two. An rcu-gp relation is
added; it is equivalent to gp with the po and po? terms removed.This is necessary because for SRCU, we will have to use the loc
relation to check that the terms at the start and end of each disjunct
in the definition of rcu-fence refer to the same srcu_struct
location. If these terms are hidden behind po and po?, there's no way
to carry out this check.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

In preparation for adding support for SRCU, rename "crit" to
"rcu-rscs", rename "rscs" to "rcu-rscsi", and remove the restriction
to only the outermost level of nesting.The name change is needed for disambiguating RCU read-side critical
sections from SRCU read-side critical sections. Adding the "i" at the
end of "rcu-rscsi" emphasizes that the relation is inverted; it links
rcu_read_unlock() events to their corresponding preceding
rcu_read_lock() events.The restriction to outermost nesting levels was never essential; it
was included mostly to show that it could be done. Rather than add
equivalent unnecessary code for SRCU lock nesting, it seemed better to
remove the existing code.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

The generic-y is redundant under the following condition:
- arch has its own implementation
- the same header is added to generated-y
- the same header is added to mandatory-y
If a redundant generic-y is found, the warning like follows is displayed:

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't
need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
recursively expanded.On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.
Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
old) commit e8f5bdb02ce0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would
have just removed the ":".Signed-off-by: Douglas Anderson

The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device
structure, we should release that reference.
The implementation of this semantic code search is:
In a function, for a local variable returned by calling
of_find_device_by_node(),
a, if it is released by a function such as
put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use,
it is considered that there is no reference leak;
b, if it is passed back to the caller via
dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the
reference will be released in other functions, and the current function
also considers that there is no reference leak;
c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the
reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the
corresponding error message.By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks,
such as:
commit 11907e9d3533 ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in
fsl_asoc_card_probe")
commit a12085d13997 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak")
commit 11493f26856a ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak")There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code.
Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also
have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to
further check the reference leak.Signed-off-by: Wen Yang

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc//
as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
the processes they refer to.With the ability to use /proc/ fds as stable handles on struct
pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
quite handy.There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
the future once they are needed.This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
a pidfd.Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/

the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"* tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux:

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
"New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
"reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
the core-mm as "System RAM".Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
used to restore the memory assignment.One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps
data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable
NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents
at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced
requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution /
administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that
lack security capable NVDIMMs.Summary:
- Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and
include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI.- Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range
- Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax
address-range to the core-mm.- Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the
newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis"NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because
we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about
accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks
inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some
(not described) circumstances.And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular
RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily
get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for
the user space tooling.Quoting Dan from another email:
"The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for
and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling
for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime
notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from
background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the
kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile
case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2.I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by
tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM
making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in
the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's
possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
- An improvement from Ard Biesheuvel, who noted that the identity map
setup was taking a long time due to flush_cache_louis().- Update a comment about dma_ops from Wolfram Sang.
- Remove use of "-p" with ld, where this flag has been a no-op since
2004.- Remove the printing of the virtual memory layout, which is no longer
useful since we hide pointers.- Correct SCU help text.
- Remove legacy TWD registration method.
- Add pgprot_device() implementation for mapping PCI sysfs resource
files.- Initialise PFN limits earlier for kmemleak.
- Fix argument count to match macro definition (affects clang builds)
- Use unified assembler language almost everywhere for clang, and other
clang improvements (from Stefan Agner, Nathan Chancellor).- Support security extension for noMMU and other noMMU cleanups (from
Vladimir Murzin).- Remove unnecessary SMP bringup code (which was incorrectly copy'n'
pasted from the ARM platform implementations) and remove it from the
arch code to discourge further copys of it appearing.- Add Cortex A9 erratum preventing kexec working on some SoCs.
- AMBA bus identification updates from Mike Leach.
- More use of raw spinlocks to avoid -RT kernel issues (from Yang Shi
and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).- MCPM hyp/svc mode mismatch fixes from Marek Szyprowski.

Merge the left-over patches from Andrew Morton.
This merges the remaining two patches from Andrew's pile of "little bit
more MM". I mulled it over, and we emailed back and forth with Josef,
and he pointed out where I was wrong.Rule #51 of kernel maintenance: when somebody makes it clear that they
know the code better than you did, stop arguing and just apply the damn
patch.Add a third patch by me to add a comment for the case that I had thought
was buggy and Josef corrected me on.* emailed patches from Andrew Morton :
filemap: add a comment about FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT behavior
filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations
filemap: kill page_cache_read usage in filemap_fault
