A hexdump with a buf not aligned to the groupsize causes
non-naturally-aligned memory accesses. This was causing a kernel panic
on the processor BlackFin BF527, when such an unaligned buffer was fed
by the function ubifs_scanned_corruption in fs/ubifs/scan.c .To fix this, change accesses to the contents of the buffer so they go
through get_unaligned(). This change should be harmless to unaligned-
access-capable architectures, and any performance hit should be anyway
dwarfed by the snprintf() processing time.Signed-off-by: Horacio Mijail Antón Quiles

Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues
at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in
Makefile). For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a
number, like the issue fixed in commit a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show
rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments
do not match the format string, c.f. for example commit 5ce1aca81435
("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string").To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every
function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/. These
functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format
flag.Signed-off-by: Nicolas Iooss

If rhashtable_walk_next detects a resize operation in progress, it jumps
to the new table and continues walking that one. But it misses to drop
the reference to it's current item, leading it to continue traversing
the new table's bucket in which the current item is sorted into, and
after reaching that bucket's end continues traversing the new table's
second bucket instead of the first one, thereby potentially missing
items.This fixes the rhashtable runtime test for me. Bug probably introduced
by Herbert Xu's patch eddee5ba ("rhashtable: Fix walker behaviour during
rehash") although not explicitly tested.Fixes: eddee5ba ("rhashtable: Fix walker behaviour during rehash")

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of
different areas.The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within
target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric
drivers tree-wide.There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and
se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a
completely lockless code-path. It also removes the original
hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint.The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core
and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while
still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes.The highlights include:
- Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi)
- Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker
(Christophe Vu-Brugier)
- Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover)

Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non
modules.This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init()
call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our
alternate priority initcalls.Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a
runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls,
because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do.For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch
specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code.This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be
taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit
init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better
to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to
device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering.Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in
commit c96d6660dc65 ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of
module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this
type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same
local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests
that I'm sending for this merge window have got.Once again, there is an unused module_exit function removal that shows

of an object off the super block. It will make device management

name "_named" suffix references to a device tree property, which contains

Pull libnvdimm subsystem from Dan Williams:
"The libnvdimm sub-system introduces, in addition to the
libnvdimm-core, 4 drivers / enabling modules:NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory
devices (NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface table).After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers "region"
devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block
device (disk) interface to the memory.PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of
persistent memory address ranges is re-worked to drive
PMEM-namespaces emitted by the libnvdimm-core.In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the ability to assert
that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all the way
through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent media.
See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through
"Block Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference
of this driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent
memory is mapped into system address space at any given point in
time.Per-NVDIMM windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access
different portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not
support DAX.BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss).The sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do
not know they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's
disk's rarely ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly
gets a CRC error on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always
silently. Until an application is audited to be robust in the
presence of sector-tearing the usage of BTT is recommended.Thanks to: Ross Zwisler, Jeff Moyer, Vishal Verma, Christoph Hellwig,

Based on an original patch by Ross Zwisler [1].
Writes to persistent memory have the potential to be posted to cpu
cache, cpu write buffers, and platform write buffers (memory controller)
before being committed to persistent media. Provide apis,
memcpy_to_pmem(), wmb_pmem(), and memremap_pmem(), to write data to
pmem and assert that it is durable in PMEM (a persistent linear address
range). A '__pmem' attribute is added so sparse can track proper usage
of pointers to pmem.This continues the status quo of pmem being x86 only for 4.2, but
reworks to ioremap, and wider implementation of memremap() will enable
other archs in 4.3.[1]: https://lists.01.org/pipermail/linux-nvdimm/2015-May/000932.html

Strings are sometimes sanitized by replacing a certain character (often
'/') by another (often '!'). In a few places, this is done the same way
Schlemiel the Painter would do it. Others are slightly smarter but still
do multiple strchr() calls. Introduce strreplace() to do this using a
single function call and a single pass over the string.One would expect the return value to be one of three things: void, s, or
the number of replacements made. I chose the fourth, returning a pointer
to the end of the string. This is more likely to be useful (for example
allowing the caller to avoid a strlen call).Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes

bitmap_print_to_pagebuf uses scnprintf to copy the cpumask/list to page
buffer. It handles the newline and trailing null character explicitly.It's unnecessary and also partially duplicated as scnprintf already adds
trailing null character. The newline can be passed through format
string to scnprintf. This patch does that simplification.However theoretically there's one behavior difference: when the buffer
is too small, the original code would still output '\n' at the end while
the new code(with this patch) would just continue to print the formatted
string. Since this function is dealing with only page buffers, it's
highly unlikely to hit that corner case.This patch will help in auditing the users of bitmap_print_to_pagebuf to
verify that the buffer passed is large enough and get rid of it
completely by replacing them with direct scnprintf()[akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak comment]

In case the call side is not providing a swap function, we either use a
32 bit or a generic swap function. When swapping around pointers on 64
bit architectures falling back to use the generic swap function seems
like an unnecessary waste.There at least 9 users ('sort' is of difficult to grep for) of sort()
and all of them use the sort function without a customized swap
function. Furthermore, they are all using pointers to swap around:arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:sanitize_e820_map()

sound/pci/hda/hda_auto_parser.c:sort_pins_by_sequence()Obviously, we could improve the swap for other sizes as well
but this is overkill at this point.A simple test shows sorting a 400 element array (try to stay in one
page) with either with u32_swap() or u64_swap() show that the theory
actually works. This test was done on a x86_64 (Intel Xeon E5-4610)

bitmap_parselist("", &mask, nmaskbits) will erroneously set bit zero in
the mask. The same bug is visible in cpumask_parselist() since it is
layered on top of the bitmask code, e.g. if you boot with "isolcpus=",
you will actually end up with cpu zero isolated.The bug was introduced in commit 4b060420a596 ("bitmap, irq: add
smp_affinity_list interface to /proc/irq") when bitmap_parselist() was
generalized to support userspace as well as kernelspace.Fixes: 4b060420a596 ("bitmap, irq: add smp_affinity_list interface to /proc/irq")
