mm/util: make strndup_user description a kernel-doc comment
Patch series "memory management documentation updates", v3.
Here are several updates to the mm documentation.
Aside from really minor changes in the first three patches, the updates
are:
* move the documentation of kstrdup and friends to "String Manipulation"
section
* split memory management API into a separate .rst file
* adjust formating of the GFP flags description and include it in the
reference documentation.
This patch (of 7):
The description of the strndup_user function misses '*' character at the
beginning of the comment to be proper kernel-doc. Add the missing
character.

mm: soft-offline: close the race against page allocation
A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to
allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline. This is
undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is
less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error),
and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good
reason like "system is busy."
Two main changes of this patch are:
- setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done
in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when
freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just
after put_page() returns,
- setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone->lock which protects
freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page
that is decided to be allocated soon.

mm: fix race on soft-offlining free huge pages
Patch series "mm: soft-offline: fix race against page allocation".
Xishi recently reported the issue about race on reusing the target pages
of soft offlining. Discussion and analysis showed that we need make
sure that setting PG_hwpoison should be done in the right place under
zone->lock for soft offline. 1/2 handles free hugepage's case, and 2/2
hanldes free buddy page's case.
This patch (of 2):
There's a race condition between soft offline and hugetlb_fault which
causes unexpected process killing and/or hugetlb allocation failure.
The process killing is caused by the following flow:
CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2
soft offline
get_any_page
// find the hugetlb is free
mmap a hugetlb file
page fault
...
hugetlb_fault
hugetlb_no_page
alloc_huge_page
// succeed
soft_offline_free_page
// set hwpoison flag
mmap the hugetlb file
page fault
...
hugetlb_fault
hugetlb_no_page
find_lock_page
return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON
mm_fault_error
do_sigbus
// kill the process
The hugetlb allocation failure comes from the following flow:
CPU 0 CPU 1
mmap a hugetlb file
// reserve all free page but don't fault-in
soft offline
get_any_page
// find the hugetlb is free
soft_offline_free_page
// set hwpoison flag
dissolve_free_huge_page
// fail because all free hugepages are reserved
page fault
...
hugetlb_fault
hugetlb_no_page
alloc_huge_page
...
dequeue_huge_page_node_exact
// ignore hwpoisoned hugepage
// and finally fail due to no-mem
The root cause of this is that current soft-offline code is written based
on an assumption that PageHWPoison flag should be set at first to avoid
accessing the corrupted data. This makes sense for memory_failure() or
hard offline, but does not for soft offline because soft offline is about
corrected (not uncorrected) error and is safe from data lost. This patch
changes soft offline semantics where it sets PageHWPoison flag only after
containment of the error page completes successfully.

namei: allow restricted O_CREAT of FIFOs and regular files
Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world
writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the
directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose
is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned
on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like
the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's
"HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer.
This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented
by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation:
This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all
vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any
mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before
hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite
vehicle to exploit them.

An HFS+ filesystem can be mounted read-only without having a metadata
directory, which is needed to support hardlinks. But if the catalog
data is corrupted, a directory lookup may still find dentries claiming
to be hardlinks.
hfsplus_lookup() does check that ->hidden_dir is not NULL in such a
situation, but mistakenly does so after dereferencing it for the first
time. Reorder this check to prevent a crash.
This happens when looking up corrupted catalog data (dentry) on a
filesystem with no metadata directory (this could only ever happen on a
read-only mount). Wen Xu sent the replication steps in detail to the

include/linux/compiler*.h: make compiler-*.h mutually exclusive
Commit f82eb0db44c7 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6")
recently exposed a brittle part of the build for supporting non-gcc
compilers.
Both Clang and ICC define __GNUC__, __GNUC_MINOR__, and
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ for quick compatibility with code bases that haven't
added compiler specific checks for __clang__ or __INTEL_COMPILER.
This is brittle, as they happened to get compatibility by posing as a
certain version of GCC. This broke when upgrading the minimal version
of GCC required to build the kernel, to a version above what ICC and
Clang claim to be.
Rather than always including compiler-gcc.h then undefining or
redefining macros in compiler-intel.h or compiler-clang.h, let's
separate out the compiler specific macro definitions into mutually
exclusive headers, do more proper compiler detection, and keep shared
definitions in compiler_types.h.

introduced in 93e65d74a993 ("ipc: optimize semget/shmget/msgget for lots

It's there, specifically, to prevent nil pointer dereferences, from using
an uninitialized api. Considering how rhashtable_init() can fail
(probably due to ENOMEM, if anything), this made the overall ipc
initialization capable of failure as well. That alone is ugly, but fine,

tables_initialized (however unlikely they may be):
- There is inconsistency in what we return to userspace: ipc_addid()
returns ENOSPC which is certainly _wrong_, while ipc_obtain_object_idr()
returns EINVAL.
- After we started using rhashtables, ipc_findkey() can return nil upon
!tables_initialized, but the caller expects nil for when the ipc
structure isn't found, and can therefore call into ipcget() callbacks.
Now that rhashtable initialization cannot fail, we can properly get rid of
the hack altogether.

rhashtable_init() may fail due to -ENOMEM, thus making the entire api
unusable. This patch removes this scenario, however unlikely. In order
to guarantee memory allocation, this patch always ends up doing
GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOFAIL for both the tbl as well as
alloc_bucket_spinlocks().
Upon the first table allocation failure, we shrink the size to the
smallest value that makes sense and retry with __GFP_NOFAIL semantics.
With the defaults, this means that from 64 buckets, we retry with only 4.
Any later issues regarding performance due to collisions or larger table
resizing (when more memory becomes available) is the least of our
problems.

lib/rhashtable: simplify bucket_table_alloc()
As of cf555363d471 ("mm: kvmalloc does not fallback to vmalloc for
incompatible gfp flags") we can simplify the caller and trust kvzalloc()
to just do the right thing. For the case of the GFP_ATOMIC context, we
can drop the __GFP_NORETRY flag for obvious reasons, and for the
__GFP_NOWARN case, however, it is changed such that the caller passes the
flag instead of making bucket_table_alloc() handle it.
This slightly changes the gfp flags passed on to nested_table_alloc() as
it will now also use GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN. However, I consider this
a positive consequence as for the same reasons we want nowarn semantics in
bucket_table_alloc().

The patch moves the initialization of kern_ipc_perm.seq before the calls
of idr_alloc().
Notes:
1) This patch has a user space visible side effect:
If /proc/sys/kernel/*_next_id is used (i.e.: checkpoint/restore) and
if semget()/msgget()/shmget() fails in the final step of adding the id
to the rhash tree, then .._next_id is cleared. Before the patch, is
remained unmodified.
There is no change of the behavior after a successful ..get() call: It
always clears .._next_id, there is no impact to non checkpoint/restore
code as that code does not use .._next_id.
2) The patch correctly documents that after a call to ipc_idr_alloc(),
the full tear-down sequence must be used. The callers of ipc_addid()
do not fullfill that, i.e. more bugfixes are required.

reiserfs_listxattr() overflows the supplied buffer. This leads to a
kernel heap overflow (verified using KASAN) followed by an out-of-bounds

Files created under macOS cannot be opened under linux if their names

table. The module deals with it correctly when composing, but forgets
about it for the decomposition.
Fix this using the Hangul decomposition function provided in the Unicode
Standard. The code fits a bit awkwardly because it requires a buffer,
while all the other normalizations are returned as pointers to the
decomposition table. This is actually also a bug because reordering may
still be needed, but for now leave it as it is.

module in the past. This shouldn't really be concern because its main
purpose was always sharing with macOS. If a user actually needs to access
such a file the nodecompose mount option should be enough.

are also cleared from the block allocation file. This is currently done

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt section I.1.
This is because bindings are logically independent from a driver
implementation, they have a different maintainer (even though they often
are applied via the same tree), and it makes for a cleaner history in the
DT only tree created with git-filter-branch.

checkpatch: fix SPDX license check with --root=<path>
checkpatch uses the in-kernel script spdxcheck.py to validate the specific
license in a file or script.
This check can currently fail for a couple reasons:
o spdxcheck.py assumes the existence of git tree that may not
exist for a bare source tree from something like a tarball
o the spdxcheck.py must be run from the top level root directory
So add a git existence test and set the subprocess subdirectory.

Print a warning if none of the Signed-off-by lines cover the patch author.
Non-ASCII quoted printable encoding in From: headers and (lack of) double
quotes are handled. Split From: headers are not fully handled: only the
first part is compared.
As of commit 3021ca4c7a7f ("treewide: replace obsolete _refok by
__ref"), __init_refok no longer exists, so it can be removed. While at
it, add the modern variants that were still missing.

checkpatch: improve runtime execution speed a little
checkpatch repeatedly uses a runtime minimum version check that validates
the minimum perl version required for a regex match by using a "$^V ge
5.10.0" runtime string match.
Only perform that minimum version test once and store the result to reduce
string matching time.
This reduces runtime execution time for patches or files with high line
counts.
An example runtime improvement:
new: $ time ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c > /dev/null
real 0m11.856s
user 0m11.831s
sys 0m0.025s
old: $ time ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c > /dev/null

checkpatch: add a --strict test for structs with bool member definitions
A struct with a bool member can have different sizes on various
architectures because neither bool size nor alignment is standardized.
So emit a message on the use of bool in structs only in .h files and not
.c files.
There is the real possibility that this test could have a false positive
when a bool is declared as an automatic, so limit the test to .h files
where the only false positive is for declarations in static inline
functions.

lib/Kconfig: remove 'default n' for tests
It seems contributors follow the style of Kconfig entries where explicit
'default n' is present. The default 'default' is 'n' already, thus, drop
these lines from Kconfig to make it more clear.
