      kconfig: remove stale lxdialog/.gitignore · c71bb9f8
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      

When this .gitignore was added, lxdialog was an independent hostprogs-y.

Now that all objects in lxdialog/ are directly linked to mconf, the
lxdialog is no longer generated.

      kbuild: force all architectures except um to include mandatory-y · 037fc336
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      

Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.

um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

      kbuild: warn redundant generic-y · 7cbbbb8b
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      

The generic-y is redundant under the following condition:

 - arch has its own implementation

 - the same header is added to generated-y

 - the same header is added to mandatory-y

If a redundant generic-y is found, the warning like follows is displayed:

  scripts/Makefile.asm-generic:20: redundant generic-y found in arch/arm/include/asm/Kbuild: timex.h

I fixed up arch Kbuild files found by this.

      kbuild: Make NOSTDINC_FLAGS a simply expanded variable · 0c22be07
      Douglas Anderson authored 
      During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include".  We don't
need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.

Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
recursively expanded.

On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.

Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
old) commit e8f5bdb0

 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
someone else (out of tree?) was setting it.  I presume later since if
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would
have just removed the ":".

  Thus it would be more foolproof to explicitly use 1.0 (as we always
  did) than to rely on dpkg-source's defaults.

* In a similar vein, debian/rules is not made executable by mkdebian,
  and dpkg-source warns about that but still silently fixes the file.
  Let's be explicit once again.

      coccinelle: semantic code search for missing put_device() · da9cfb87
      Wen Yang authored 
      The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device
structure, we should release that reference.
The implementation of this semantic code search is:
In a function, for a local variable returned by calling
of_find_device_by_node(),
a, if it is released by a function such as
   put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use,
   it is considered that there is no reference leak;
b, if it is passed back to the caller via
   dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the
   reference will be released in other functions, and the current function
   also considers that there is no reference leak;
c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the
   reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the
   corresponding error message.

By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks,
such as:
commit 11907e9d ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in
fsl_asoc_card_probe")
commit a12085d1 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak")
commit 11493f26

 ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak")

There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code.

Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also
have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to
further check the reference leak.

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
 "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
  as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
  will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
  the processes they refer to.

  With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
  pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
  its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
  to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.

  With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
  example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
  process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
  parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
  rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
  in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
  process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
  quite handy.

  There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
  management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
  and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
  suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
  most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
  the future once they are needed.

  This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
  caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
  functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
  a pidfd.

  Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
  cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:

      https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/

  The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting
  the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"

      Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
 "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
  "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
  the core-mm as "System RAM".

  Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
  memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
  differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
  typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
  allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
  model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
  RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
  it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
  generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
  purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
  used to restore the memo...
