<content type='text'>
Generic mm functions that call KASAN annotations that might report a bug
pass _RET_IP_ to them as an argument. This allows KASAN to include the
name of the function that called the mm function in its report's header.

Now that KASAN has inline wrappers for all of its annotations, move
_RET_IP_ to those wrappers to simplify annotation call sites.

Rename kasan_poison_kfree() to kasan_slab_free_mempool() as it better
reflects what this annotation does. Also add a comment that explains the
PageSlab() check.

No functional changes.

There's the external annotation kasan_unpoison_slab() that is currently
defined as static inline and uses kasan_unpoison_range(). Open-code this
function in mempool.c. Otherwise with an upcoming change this function
will result in an unnecessary function call.

Add else to split mutually exclusive case and avoid some unnecessary check.
It doesn't seem to change code generation (compiler is smart), but I think
it helps readability.

Even though the commit 5b990546e334 ("mempool: fix and document
synchronization and memory barrier usage") introduced the smp_wmb() and
smp_rmb() pair to improve the situation, it is adequate to protect it
from data races which could lead to a logic bug, so fix it by adding
READ_ONCE() for the read.

<title>docs/core-api/mm: fix return value descriptions in mm/</title>

<id>a862f68a8b360086f248cbc3606029441b5f5197</id>
<content type='text'>
Many kernel-doc comments in mm/ have the return value descriptions
either misformatted or omitted at all which makes kernel-doc script
unhappy:

$ make V=1 htmldocs
...
./mm/util.c:36: info: Scanning doc for kstrdup
./mm/util.c:41: warning: No description found for return value of 'kstrdup'
./mm/util.c:57: info: Scanning doc for kstrdup_const
./mm/util.c:66: warning: No description found for return value of 'kstrdup_const'
./mm/util.c:75: info: Scanning doc for kstrndup
./mm/util.c:83: warning: No description found for return value of 'kstrndup'
...

Fixing the formatting and adding the missing return value descriptions
eliminates ~100 such warnings.

Fixing the formatting and adding the missing return value descriptions

The kernel-doc for mempool_init function is missing the description of the
pool parameter.  Add it.

The argument "gfp_t flags" is not used in kasan_unpoison_element() and
remove_element(), so remove it.

Allows mempools to be embedded in other structs, getting rid of a
pointer indirection from allocation fastpaths.

mempool_exit() is safe to call on an uninitialized but zeroed mempool.

<title>kasan: detect invalid frees for large mempool objects</title>

Detect frees of pointers into middle of mempool objects.

I did a one-off test, but it turned out to be very tricky, so I reverted
it.  First, mempool does not call kasan_poison_kfree() unless allocation
function fails.  I stubbed an allocation function to fail on second and
subsequent allocations.  But then mempool stopped to call
kasan_poison_kfree() at all, because it does it only when allocation
function is mempool_kmalloc().  We could support this special failing
test allocation function in mempool, but it also can't live with kasan
tests, because these are in a module.
