2014-08-06checkpatch: ignore email headers betterJoe Perches
There are some patches created by git format-patch that when scanned by checkpatch report errors on lines like To: address.tld This is a checkpatch false positive.

2014-08-06checkpatch: warn on unnecessary else after return or breakJoe Perches
Using an else following a break or return can unnecessarily indent code blocks. ie: for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) { int foo = bar(); if (foo < 1) break; else usleep(1); } is generally better written as: for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) { int foo = bar(); if (foo < 1) break; usleep(1); } Warn when a bare else statement is preceded by a break or return indented 1 tab more than the else.

2014-08-06checkpatch: attempt to find unnecessary 'out of memory' messagesJoe Perches
Logging messages that show some type of "out of memory" error are generally unnecessary as there is a generic message and a stack dump done by the memory subsystem. These messages generally increase kernel size without much added value. Emit a warning on these types of messages. This test looks for any inserted message function, then looks at the previous line for an "if (!foo)" or "if (foo == NULL)" test and then looks at the preceding statement for an allocation function like "foo = kmalloc()" ie: this code matches: foo = kmalloc(); if (foo == NULL) { printk("Out of memory\n"); return -ENOMEM; } This test is very crude and incomplete. This test can miss quite a lot of of OOM messages that do not have this specific form. ie: this code does not match: foo = kmalloc(); if (!foo) { rtn = -ENOMEM; printk("Out of memory!\n"); goto out; } This test could also be a false positive when the logging message itself does not specify anything about memory, but I did not find any false positives in my limited testing. spatch could be a better solution but correctness seems non-trivial for that tool too.

2014-08-06lib: bitmap: make nbits parameter of bitmap_empty unsignedRasmus Villemoes
Many functions in lib/bitmap.c start with an expression such as lim = bits/BITS_PER_LONG. Since bits has type (signed) int, and since gcc cannot know that it is in fact non-negative, it generates worse code than it could. These patches, mostly consisting of changing various parameters to unsigned, gives a slight overall code reduction: add/remove: 1/1 grow/shrink: 8/16 up/down: 251/-414 (-163) function old new delta tick_device_uses_broadcast 335 425 +90 __irq_alloc_descs 498 554 +56 __bitmap_andnot 73 115 +42 __bitmap_and 70 101 +31 bitmap_weight - 11 +11 copy_hugetlb_page_range 752 762 +10 follow_hugetlb_page 846 854 +8 hugetlb_init 1415 1417 +2 hugetlb_nrpages_setup 130 131 +1 hugetlb_add_hstate 377 376 -1 bitmap_allocate_region 82 80 -2 select_task_rq_fair 2202 2191 -11 hweight_long 66 55 -11 __reg_op 230 219 -11 dm_stats_message 2849 2833 -16 bitmap_parselist 92 74 -18 __bitmap_weight 115 97 -18 __bitmap_subset 153 129 -24 __bitmap_full 128 104 -24 __bitmap_empty 120 96 -24 bitmap_set 179 149 -30 bitmap_clear 185 155 -30 __bitmap_equal 136 105 -31 __bitmap_intersects 148 108 -40 __bitmap_complement 109 67 -42 tick_device_setup_broadcast_func.isra 81 - -81 [The increases in __bitmap_and{,not} are due to bug fixes 17/18,18/18. No idea why bitmap_weight suddenly appears.] While 163 bytes treewide is insignificant, I believe the bitmap functions are often called with locks held, so saving even a few cycles might be worth it. While making these changes, I found a few other things that might be worth including. 16,17,18 are actual bug fixes. The rest shouldn't change the behaviour of any of the functions, provided no-one passed negative nbits values. If something should come up, it should be fairly bisectable. A few issues I thought about, but didn't know what to do with: * Many of the functions misbehave if nbits is compile-time 0; the out-of-line functions generally handle 0 correctly. bitmap_fill() is particularly bad, whether the 0 is known at compile time or not. It would probably be nice to add detection of at least compile-time 0 and handle that appropriately. * I didn't change __bitmap_shift_{left,right} to use unsigned because I want to fully understand why the algorithm works before making that change. However, AFAICT, they behave correctly for all (positive) shift amounts. This is not the case for the small_const_nbits versions. If for example nbits = n = BITS_PER_LONG, the shift operators turn into no-ops (at least on x86), so one get *dst = *src, whereas one would expect to get *dst=0. That difference in behaviour is somewhat annoying. This patch (of 18): The compiler can generate slightly smaller and simpler code when it knows that "nbits" is non-negative. Since no-one passes a negative bit-count, this shouldn't affect the semantics.

2014-08-06lib: list_sort.c: Limit number of unused cmp callbacksRasmus Villemoes
The helper merge_and_restore_back_links() makes sure to call the caller's cmp function during the final ->prev pointer fixup, so that the cmp function may call cond_resched(). However, if the cmp function does not call cond_resched() at all, this is entirely redundant. If it does, doing at least two function calls for every two pointer assignments is a bit excessive. This patch limits the calls to once for every 256 iterations.

2014-08-06lib: list_sort_test(): simplify and harden cleanupRasmus Villemoes
There is no reason to maintain the list structure while freeing the debug elements. Aside from the redundant pointer manipulations, it is also inefficient from a locality-of-reference viewpoint, since they are visited in a random order (wrt. the order they were allocated). Furthermore, if we jumped to exit: after detecting list corruption, it is actually dangerous. So just free the elements in the order they were allocated, using the backing array elts. Allocate that using kcalloc(), so that if allocation of one of the debug element fails, we just end up calling kfree(NULL) for the trailing elements. Minor details: Use sizeof(*elts) instead of sizeof(void *), and return err immediately when allocation of elts fails, to avoid introducing another label just before the final return statement.

2014-08-06printk: enable interrupts before calling console_trylock_for_printk()Jan Kara
We need interrupts disabled when calling console_trylock_for_printk() only so that cpu id we pass to can_use_console() remains valid (for other things console_sem provides all the exclusion we need and deadlocks on console_sem due to interrupts are impossible because we use down_trylock()). However if we are rescheduled, we are guaranteed to run on an online cpu so we can easily just get the cpu id in can_use_console(). We can lose a bit of performance when we enable interrupts in vprintk_emit() and then disable them again in console_unlock() but OTOH it can somewhat reduce interrupt latency caused by console_unlock(). We differ from (reverted) commit 939f04bec1a4 in that we avoid calling console_unlock() from vprintk_emit() with lockdep enabled as that has unveiled quite some bugs leading to system freezes during boot (e.g. https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/30/242, https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/28/521).

2014-08-06printk: miscellaneous cleanupsAlex Elder
Some small cleanups to kernel/printk/printk.c. None of them should cause any change in behavior. - When CONFIG_PRINTK is defined, parenthesize the value of LOG_LINE_MAX. - When CONFIG_PRINTK is *not* defined, there is an extra LOG_LINE_MAX definition; delete it. - Pull an assignment out of a conditional expression in console_setup(). - Use isdigit() in console_setup() rather than open coding it. - In update_console_cmdline(), drop a NUL-termination assignment; the strlcpy() call that precedes it guarantees it's not needed. - Simplify some logic in printk_timed_ratelimit().

2014-08-06printk: rename DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVELAlex Elder
Commit a8fe19ebfbfd ("kernel/printk: use symbolic defines for console loglevels") makes consistent use of symbolic values for printk() log levels. The naming scheme used is different from the one used for DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL though. Change that symbol name to be MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT for consistency. And because the value of that symbol comes from a similarly-named config option, rename CONFIG_DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL as well.

2014-08-06printk: tweak do_syslog() to match commentsAlex Elder
In do_syslog() there's a path used by kmsg_poll() and kmsg_read() that only needs to know whether there's any data available to read (and not its size). These callers only check for non-zero return. As a shortcut, do_syslog() returns the difference between what has been logged and what has been "seen." The comments say that the "count of records" should be returned but it's not. Instead it returns (log_next_idx - syslog_idx), which is a difference between buffer offsets--and the result could be negative. The behavior is the same (it'll be zero or not in the same cases), but the count of records is more meaningful and it matches what the comments say. So change the code to return that.

2014-08-06printk: allow increasing the ring buffer depending on the number of CPUsLuis R. Rodriguez
The default size of the ring buffer is too small for machines with a large amount of CPUs under heavy load. What ends up happening when debugging is the ring buffer overlaps and chews up old messages making debugging impossible unless the size is passed as a kernel parameter. An idle system upon boot up will on average spew out only about one or two extra lines but where this really matters is on heavy load and that will vary widely depending on the system and environment. There are mechanisms to help increase the kernel ring buffer for tracing through debugfs, and those interfaces even allow growing the kernel ring buffer per CPU. We also have a static value which can be passed upon boot. Relying on debugfs however is not ideal for production, and relying on the value passed upon bootup is can only used *after* an issue has creeped up. Instead of being reactive this adds a proactive measure which lets you scale the amount of contributions you'd expect to the kernel ring buffer under load by each CPU in the worst case scenario. We use num_possible_cpus() to avoid complexities which could be introduced by dynamically changing the ring buffer size at run time, num_possible_cpus() lets us use the upper limit on possible number of CPUs therefore avoiding having to deal with hotplugging CPUs on and off. This introduces the kernel configuration option LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT which is used to specify the maximum amount of contributions to the kernel ring buffer in the worst case before the kernel ring buffer flips over, the size is specified as a power of 2. The total amount of contributions made by each CPU must be greater than half of the default kernel ring buffer size (1 << LOG_BUF_SHIFT bytes) in order to trigger an increase upon bootup. The kernel ring buffer is increased to the next power of two that would fit the required minimum kernel ring buffer size plus the additional CPU contribution. For example if LOG_BUF_SHIFT is 18 (256 KB) you'd require at least 128 KB contributions by other CPUs in order to trigger an increase of the kernel ring buffer. With a LOG_CPU_BUF_SHIFT of 12 (4 KB) you'd require at least anything over > 64 possible CPUs to trigger an increase. If you had 128 possible CPUs the amount of minimum required kernel ring buffer bumps to: ((1 << 18) + ((128 - 1) * (1 << 12))) / 1024 = 764 KB Since we require the ring buffer to be a power of two the new required size would be 1024 KB. This CPU contributions are ignored when the "log_buf_len" kernel parameter is used as it forces the exact size of the ring buffer to an expected power of two value.

2014-08-06printk: move power of 2 practice of ring buffer size to a helperLuis R. Rodriguez
In practice the power of 2 practice of the size of the kernel ring buffer remains purely historical but not a requirement, specially now that we have LOG_ALIGN and use it for both static and dynamic allocations. It could have helped with implicit alignment back in the days given the even the dynamically sized ring buffer was guaranteed to be aligned so long as CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT was set to produce a __LOG_BUF_LEN which is architecture aligned, since log_buf_len=n would be allowed only if it was > __LOG_BUF_LEN and we always ended up rounding the log_buf_len=n to the next power of 2 with roundup_pow_of_two(), any multiple of 2 then should be also architecture aligned. These assumptions of course relied heavily on CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT producing an aligned value but users can always change this. We now have precise alignment requirements set for the log buffer size for both static and dynamic allocations, but lets upkeep the old practice of using powers of 2 for its size to help with easy expected scalable values and the allocators for dynamic allocations. We'll reuse this later so move this into a helper. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2014-08-06printk: make dynamic kernel ring buffer alignment explicitLuis R. Rodriguez
We have to consider alignment for the ring buffer both for the default static size, and then also for when an dynamic allocation is made when the log_buf_len=n kernel parameter is passed to set the size specifically to a size larger than the default size set by the architecture through CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT. The default static kernel ring buffer can be aligned properly if architectures set CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT properly, we provide ranges for the size though so even if CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT has a sensible aligned value it can be reduced to a non aligned value. Commit 6ebb017de9 ("printk: Fix alignment of buf causing crash on ARM EABI") by Andrew Lunn ensures the static buffer is always aligned and the decision of alignment is done by the compiler by using __alignof__(struct log). When log_buf_len=n is used we allocate the ring buffer dynamically. Dynamic allocation varies, for the early allocation called before setup_arch() memblock_virt_alloc() requests a page aligment and for the default kernel allocation memblock_virt_alloc_nopanic() requests no special alignment, which in turn ends up aligning the allocation to SMP_CACHE_BYTES, which is L1 cache aligned. Since we already have the required alignment for the kernel ring buffer though we can do better and request explicit alignment for LOG_ALIGN. This does that to be safe and make dynamic allocation alignment explicit. Signed-off-by: Luis R.
