debugobjects: avoid recursive calls with kmemleak

2018-11-30T22:56:14+00:00

CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD does not play well with kmemleak due to
recursive calls.

fill_pool
  kmemleak_ignore
    make_black_object
      put_object
        __call_rcu (kernel/rcu/tree.c)
          debug_rcu_head_queue
            debug_object_activate
              debug_object_init
                fill_pool
                  kmemleak_ignore
                    make_black_object
                      ...

So add SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE to kmem_cache_create() to not register newly
allocated debug objects at all.

lib/test_kmod.c: fix rmmod double free

2018-11-30T22:56:14+00:00

We free the misc device string twice on rmmod; fix this.  Without this
we cannot remove the module without crashing.

test_hexdump: use memcpy instead of strncpy

2018-11-30T20:13:15+00:00

New versions of gcc reasonably warn about the odd pattern of

	strncpy(p, q, strlen(q));

which really doesn't make sense: the strncpy() ends up being just a slow
and odd way to write memcpy() in this case.

Apparently there was a patch for this floating around earlier, but it
got lost.

Merge tag 'xarray-4.20-rc4' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax

2018-11-25T02:44:01+00:00

Pull XArray updates from Matthew Wilcox:
 "We found some bugs in the DAX conversion to XArray (and one bug which
  predated the XArray conversion). There were a couple of bugs in some
  of the higher-level functions, which aren't actually being called in
  today's kernel, but surfaced as a result of converting existing radix
  tree & IDR users over to the XArray.

  Some of the other changes to how the higher-level APIs work were also
  motivated by converting various users; again, they're not in use in
  today's kernel, so changing them has a low probability of introducing
  a bug.

  Dan can still trigger a bug in the DAX code with hot-offline/online,
  and we're working on tracking that down"

lib/ubsan.c: don't mark __ubsan_handle_builtin_unreachable as noreturn

2018-11-18T18:15:10+00:00

gcc-8 complains about the prototype for this function:

  lib/ubsan.c:432:1: error: ignoring attribute 'noreturn' in declaration of a built-in function '__ubsan_handle_builtin_unreachable' because it conflicts with attribute 'const' [-Werror=attributes]

This is actually a GCC's bug. In GCC internals
__ubsan_handle_builtin_unreachable() declared with both 'noreturn' and
'const' attributes instead of only 'noreturn':

   https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=84210

Workaround this by removing the noreturn attribute.

XArray tests: Correct some 64-bit assumptions

The test-suite caught these two mistakes when compiled for 32-bit.
I had only been running the test-suite in 64-bit mode.
