2018-03-21kernel-doc: Remove __sched markingsMatthew Wilcox
I find the __sched annotations unaesthetic in the kernel-doc. Remove them like we remove __inline, __weak, __init and so on. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2018-02-20Merge branch 'kerneldoc2' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet
So once upon a time I set out to fix the problem reported by Tobin wherein a literal block within a kerneldoc comment would be corrupted in processing. On the way, though, I got annoyed at the way I have to learn how kernel-doc works from the beginning every time I tear into it. As a result, seven of the following eight patches just get rid of some dead code and reorganize the rest - mostly turning the 500-line process_file() function into something a bit more rational. Sphinx output is unchanged after these are applied. Then, at the end, there's a tweak to stop messing with literal blocks. If anybody was unaware that I've not done any serious Perl since the 1990's, they will certainly understand that fact now.

2018-02-18scripts: kernel_doc: fixup reporting of function identifiersMike Rapoport

2018-02-15docs: kernel-doc: Don't mangle literal code blocks in commentsJonathan Corbet
It can be useful to put code snippets into kerneldoc comments; that can be done with the "::" operator at the end of a line like this:: if (desperate) run_in_circles(); The ".. code-block::" directive can also be used to this end. kernel-doc currently fails to understand these literal blocks and applies its normal markup to them, which is then treated as literal by sphinx. The result is unsightly markup instead of a useful code snippet. Apply a hack to the output code to recognize literal blocks and avoid performing any special markup on them. It's ugly, but that means it fits in well with the rest of the script. Reviewed-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2018-02-09kconfig: echo stdin to stdout if either is redirectedMasahiro Yamada
If stdio is not tty, conf_askvalue() puts additional new line to prevent prompts from being concatenated into a single line. This care is missing in conf_choice(), so a 'choice' prompt and the next prompt are shown in the same line. Move the code into xfgets() to cater to all cases. To improve this more, let's echo stdin to stdout. This clarifies what keys were input from stdio and the stdout looks like as if it were from tty.

2018-02-06kasan: rework Kconfig settingsArnd Bergmann
We get a lot of very large stack frames using gcc-7.0.1 with the default -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope --param asan-stack=1 options, which can easily cause an overflow of the kernel stack, e.g. drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/handlers.c:2434:1: warning: the frame size of 46176 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c:5650:1: warning: the frame size of 23632 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes lib/atomic64_test.c:250:1: warning: the frame size of 11200 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/handlers.c:2621:1: warning: the frame size of 9208 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes drivers/media/dvb-frontends/stv090x.c:3431:1: warning: the frame size of 6816 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes fs/fscache/stats.c:287:1: warning: the frame size of 6536 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes To reduce this risk, -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope is now split out into a separate CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA Kconfig option, leading to stack frames that are smaller than 2 kilobytes most of the time on x86_64. An earlier version of this patch also prevented combining KASAN_EXTRA with KASAN_INLINE, but that is no longer necessary with gcc-7.0.1. All patches to get the frame size below 2048 bytes with CONFIG_KASAN=y and CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA=n have been merged by maintainers now, so we can bring back that default now. KASAN_EXTRA=y still causes lots of warnings but now defaults to !COMPILE_TEST to disable it in allmodconfig, and it remains disabled in all other defconfigs since it is a new option. I arbitrarily raise the warning limit for KASAN_EXTRA to 3072 to reduce the noise, but an allmodconfig kernel still has around 50 warnings on gcc-7. I experimented a bit more with smaller stack frames and have another follow-up series that reduces the warning limit for 64-bit architectures to 1280 bytes (without CONFIG_KASAN). With earlier versions of this patch series, I also had patches to address the warnings we get with KASAN and/or KASAN_EXTRA, using a "noinline_if_stackbloat" annotation. That annotation now got replaced with a gcc-8 bugfix (see https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=81715) and a workaround for older compilers, which means that KASAN_EXTRA is now just as bad as before and will lead to an instant stack overflow in a few extreme cases. This reverts parts of commit 3f181b4d8652 ("lib/Kconfig.debug: disable -Wframe-larger-than warnings with KASAN=y"). Two patches in linux-next should be merged first to avoid introducing warnings in an allmodconfig build: 3cd890dbe2a4 ("media: dvb-frontends: fix i2c access helpers for KASAN") 16c3ada89cff ("media: r820t: fix r820t_write_reg for KASAN") Do we really need to backport this? I think we do: without this patch, enabling KASAN will lead to unavoidable kernel stack overflow in certain device drivers when built with gcc-7 or higher on linux-4.10+ or any version that contains a backport of commit c5caf21ab0cf8. Most people are probably still on older compilers, but it will get worse over time as they upgrade their distros. The warnings we get on kernels older than this should all be for code that uses dangerously large stack frames, though most of them do not cause an actual stack overflow by themselves.The asan-stack option was added in linux-4.0, and commit 3f181b4d8652 ("lib/Kconfig.debug: disable -Wframe-larger-than warnings with KASAN=y") effectively turned off the warning for allmodconfig kernels, so I would like to see this fix backported to any kernels later than 4.0. I have done dozens of fixes for individual functions with stack frames larger than 2048 bytes with asan-stack, and I plan to make sure that all those fixes make it into the stable kernels as well (most are already there). Part of the complication here is that asan-stack (from 4.0) was originally assumed to always require much larger stacks, but that turned out to be a combination of multiple gcc bugs that we have now worked around and fixed, but sanitize-address-use-after-scope (from v4.10) has a much higher inherent stack usage and also suffers from at least three other problems that we have analyzed but not yet fixed upstream, each of them makes the stack usage more severe than it should be.

2018-02-06lib/ubsan: remove returns-nonnull-attribute checksAndrey Ryabinin
Similarly to type mismatch checks, new GCC 8.x and Clang also changed for ABI for returns_nonnull checks. While we can update our code to conform the new ABI it's more reasonable to just remove it. Because it's just dead code, we don't have any single user of returns_nonnull attribute in the whole kernel. And AFAIU the advantage that this attribute could bring would be mitigated by -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks cflag that we use to build the kernel. So it's unlikely we will have a lot of returns_nonnull attribute in future. So let's just remove the code, it has no use.

Recognition of URIs without more context information is prone to false positives and thus currently left out of the heuristics. $rawline is used in the check as comments are removed from $line.

2018-02-06kasan: support alloca() poisoningPaul Lawrence
clang's AddressSanitizer implementation adds redzones on either side of alloca()ed buffers. These redzones are 32-byte aligned and at least 32 bytes long. __asan_alloca_poison() is passed the size and address of the allocated buffer, *excluding* the redzones on either side. The left redzone will always be to the immediate left of this buffer; but AddressSanitizer may need to add padding between the end of the buffer and the right redzone. If there are any 8-byte chunks inside this padding, we should poison those too. __asan_allocas_unpoison() is just passed the top and bottom of the dynamic stack area, so unpoisoning is simpler.

LLVM doesn't understand GCC-style paramters ("--param asan-foo=bar"), thus we currently we don't use inline/globals/stack instrumentation when building the kernel with clang. Add support for LLVM-style parameters ("-mllvm -asan-foo=bar") to enable all KASAN features.

2018-02-06kasan: don't emit builtin calls when sanitization is offAndrey Konovalov
With KASAN enabled the kernel has two different memset() functions, one with KASAN checks (memset) and one without (__memset). KASAN uses some macro tricks to use the proper version where required. For example memset() calls in mm/slub.c are without KASAN checks, since they operate on poisoned slab object metadata. The issue is that clang emits memset() calls even when there is no memset() in the source code. They get linked with improper memset() implementation and the kernel fails to boot due to a huge amount of KASAN reports during early boot stages. The solution is to add -fno-builtin flag for files with KASAN_SANITIZE := n marker.

2018-02-03kconfig: Warn if help text is blankUlf Magnusson
Blank help texts are probably either a typo, a Kconfig misunderstanding, or some kind of half-committing to adding a help text (in which case a TODO comment would be clearer, if the help text really can't be added right away). Best to flag them, IMO.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Add a console_msg_format command line option: The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log level>[timestamp] text" format. This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs at hands. - Reduce the risk of softlockup: Pass the console owner in a busy loop. This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep. On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the waiter. The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations. Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example, when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too much to flush. There is increasing number of people having problems with printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising direction. - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk(): This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output. This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective. - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier: It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function descriptors and show the real function address. It is done transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now. Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in a special elf section and could be easily detected. - Remove printk_symbol() API: It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API. - Remove redundant memsets: Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg command line option. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk: (27 commits) printk: drop redundant devkmsg_log_str memsets printk: Never set console_may_schedule in console_trylock() printk: Hide console waiter logic into helpers printk: Add console owner and waiter logic to load balance console writes kallsyms: remove print_symbol() function checkpatch: add pF/pf deprecation warning symbol lookup: introduce dereference_symbol_descriptor() parisc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference powerpc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference ia64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference sections: split dereference_function_descriptor() openrisc: Fix conflicting types for _exext and _stext lib: do not use print_symbol() irq debug: do not use print_symbol() sysfs: do not use print_symbol() drivers: do not use print_symbol() x86: do not use print_symbol() unicore32: do not use print_symbol() sh: do not use print_symbol() mn10300: do not use print_symbol() ...
