treewide: Switch DEFINE_TIMER callbacks to struct timer_list *

2017-11-21T23:57:05+00:00

This changes all DEFINE_TIMER() callbacks to use a struct timer_list
pointer instead of unsigned long. Since the data argument has already been
removed, none of these callbacks are using their argument currently, so
this renames the argument to "unused".

Done using the following semantic patch:

@match_define_timer@
declarer name DEFINE_TIMER;
identifier _timer, _callback;
@@

 DEFINE_TIMER(_timer, _callback);

@change_callback depends on match_define_timer@
identifier match_define_timer._callback;
type _origtype;
identifier _origarg;
@@

 void
-_callback(_origtype _origarg)
+_callback(struct timer_list *unused)
 { ... }

pstore: Use ktime_get_real_fast_ns() instead of __getnstimeofday()

2017-11-12T14:05:52+00:00

__getnstimeofday() is a rather odd interface, with a number of quirks:

- The caller may come from NMI context, but the implementation is not NMI safe,
  one way to get there from NMI is

      NMI handler:
        something bad
          panic()
            kmsg_dump()
              pstore_dump()
                 pstore_record_init()
                   __getnstimeofday()

- The calling conventions are different from any other timekeeping functions,
  to deal with returning an error code during suspended timekeeping.

Address the above issues by using a completely different method to get the
time: ktime_get_real_fast_ns() is NMI safe and has a reasonable behavior
when timekeeping is suspended: it returns the time at which it got
suspended. As Thomas Gleixner explained, this is safe, as
ktime_get_real_fast_ns() does not call into the clocksource driver that
might be suspended.

The result can easily be transformed into a timespec structure. Since
ktime_get_real_fast_ns() was not exported to modules, add the export.

The pstore behavior for the suspended case changes slightly, as it now
stores the timestamp at which timekeeping was suspended instead of storing
a zero timestamp.

This change is not addressing y2038-safety, that's subject to a more
complex follow up patch.

Merge branch 'work.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2017-07-15T19:00:42+00:00

Pull ->s_options removal from Al Viro:
 "Preparations for fsmount/fsopen stuff (coming next cycle). Everything
  gets moved to explicit ->show_options(), killing ->s_options off +
  some cosmetic bits around fs/namespace.c and friends. Basically, the
  stuff needed to work with fsmount series with minimum of conflicts
  with other work.

  It's not strictly required for this merge window, but it would reduce
  the PITA during the coming cycle, so it would be nice to have those
  bits and pieces out of the way"

Implement the show_options superblock op for pstore as part of a bid to get
rid of s_options and generic_show_options() to make it easier to implement
a context-based mount where the mount options can be passed individually
over a file descriptor.
