The Kconfig language has already been built-in in the latest ctags, so it would error exit if we try to define it as an user-defined language via '--langdef=kconfig'. This results that there is no Kconfig tags in the final tag file. Fix this by skipping the user Kconfig definition for the latest ctags.

If nilfs2 reads a corrupted disk image and its DAT metadata file contains invalid lifetime data for a virtual block number, a kernel warning can be generated by the WARN_ON check in nilfs_dat_commit_end() and can panic if the kernel is booted with panic_on_warn. This patch avoids the issue with a sanity check that treats it as an error. Since error return is not allowed in the execution phase of nilfs_dat_commit_end(), this inserts that sanity check in nilfs_dat_prepare_end(), which prepares for nilfs_dat_commit_end(). As the error code, -EINVAL is returned to notify bmap layer of the metadata corruption. When the bmap layer sees this code, it handles the abnormal situation and replaces the return code with -EIO as it should.

In workloads where this_cpu operations are frequently performed, enabling DEBUG_PREEMPT may result in significant increase in runtime overhead due to frequent invocation of __this_cpu_preempt_check() function. This can be demonstrated through benchmarks such as hackbench where this configuration results in a 10% reduction in performance, primarily due to the added overhead within memcg charging path.

Since hardware inflate does not support Z_PACKET_FLUSH option (used exclusively by kernel PPP driver), always switch to software like we already do for Z_BLOCK flush option. Without this patch, PPP might get Z_DATA_ERROR return code from zlib_inflate() and disable zlib compression for the packets.

There is no hardware control for DFLTCC window size. After this change, software and hardware window formats no longer match: the software will use wbits and wsize, and the hardware will use HB_BITS and HB_SIZE. Since neither dictionary manipulation nor internal allocation functions are relevant to kernel zlib and zlib_inflate_workspacesize() always use MAX_WBITS for window size calculation, only dfltcc_can_inflate() and dfltcc_inflate() functions are affected by this patch.

Currently deflate and inflate both use a common state struct. There are several variables in this struct that we don't need for inflate, and more may be coming in the future. Therefore split them in two separate structs. Apart from that, introduce separate headers for dfltcc_deflate and dfltcc_inflate.

Patch series "lib/zlib: Set of s390 DFLTCC related patches for kernel zlib". Patches 1-7 represent a set of s390 zlib hardware support (DFLTCC) related fixes and enhancements integrated from zlib-ng repo relevant to kernel zlib (https://github.com/zlib-ng/zlib-ng). Since the official zlib repository never got DFLTCC support code merged, all the patches have been picked from zlib-ng fork (zlib data compression library for the next generation systems). This repo contains new optimizations and fixes not getting implemented into the official zlib repository and falls under the same zlib License. All of the original patches from zlib-ng were authored by Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@linux.ibm.com>. Coding style has been preserved for future maintainability. Patches 1-2 should have no effect for the kernel zlib but make the code closer to zlib-ng for future maintainability. Only Patch 3 touches common zlib_deflate code, other patches are relevant to s390 tree only. Patch 8 is separate and intends to resolve an issue with kernel PPP driver which can use kernel zlib for packet compression. Without this patch PPP decompression can fail due to error code returned by hardware (dfltcc_inflate) and PPP disables zlib compression for further packets. This patch (of 8): This commit is based on: https://github.com/zlib-ng/zlib-ng/commit/d8b67f5 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230126131428.1222214-1-zaslonko@linux.ibm.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230126131428.1222214-2-zaslonko@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by:

If DAT metadata file block access fails due to corruption of the DAT file or abnormal virtual block numbers held by b-trees or inodes, a kernel warning is generated. This replaces the WARN_ONs by error output, so that a kernel, booted with panic_on_warn, does not panic. This patch also replaces the detected return code -ENOENT with another internal code -EINVAL to notify the bmap layer of metadata corruption. When the bmap layer sees -EINVAL, it handles the abnormal situation with nilfs_bmap_convert_error() and finally returns code -EIO as it should.

When filesystem's ->get_block function does not map the buffer head when called from __mpage_writepage(), __mpage_writepage() will happily go and pass bogus bdev and block number to bio allocation routines which leads to crashes sooner or later. E.g. UDF can do this because it doesn't want to allocate blocks from ->writepages callbacks. It allocates blocks on write or page fault but writeback can still spot dirty buffers without underlying blocks allocated e.g. if blocksize < pagesize, the tail page is dirtied (which means all its buffers are dirtied), and truncate extends the file so that some buffer starts to be within i_size.

Instead of using an unnecessarily complicated approach to print a line that is warned about, use `$herecurr` instead, just like everywhere else in checkpatch. While at it, remove a superfluous space in one of the changed lines, too. In a unmodified line also remove a superfluous check for a space before a signed-off-by tag, to me consistent with the check at the start of the section. All three problems were found by Joe Perches during review of new code inspired by the code modified here.

Encourage patch authors to link to reports by issuing a warning, if a Reported-by: is not accompanied by a link to the report. Those links are often extremely useful for any code archaeologist that wants to know more about the backstory of a change than the commit message provides. That includes maintainers higher up in the patch-flow hierarchy, which is why Linus asks developers to add such links [1, 2, 3].

Patch series "checkpatch.pl: warn about discouraged tags and missing Link: tags", v4. The first two changes make checkpatch.pl check for a few mistakes wrt to links to bug reports Linus recently complained about a few times. Avoiding those is also important for my regression tracking efforts a lot, as the automated tracking performed by regzbot relies on the proper usage of the Link: tag. The third patch fixes a few small oddities noticed in existing code during review of the two changes. This patch (of 3): Issue a warning when encountering URLs behind unknown tags, as Linus recently stated ```please stop making up random tags that make no sense. Just use "Link:"```[1]. That statement was triggered by an use of 'BugLink', but that's not the only tag people invented: $ git log -100000 --no-merges --format=email -P \ --grep='^\w+:[ ]*http' | grep -Poh '^\w+:[ ]*http' | \ sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -n 20 103958 Link: http 418 BugLink: http 372 Patchwork: http 280 Closes: http 224 Bug: http 123 References: http 84 Bugzilla: http 61 URL: http 42 v1: http 38 Datasheet: http 20 v2: http 9 Ref: http 9 Fixes: http 9 Buglink: http 8 v3: http 8 Reference: http 7 See: http 6 1: http 5 link: http 3 Link:http Some of these non-standard tags make it harder for external tools that rely on use of proper tags. One of those tools is the regression tracking bot 'regzbot', which looks out for "Link:" tags pointing to reports of tracked regressions. The initial idea was to use a disallow list to raise an error when encountering known unwanted tags like BugLink:; during review it was requested to use a list of allowed tags instead[2].

Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg fails. Note that the value from *ptr should be read using READ_ONCE to prevent the compiler from merging, refetching or reordering the read. The patch also declares these two functions inline, to ensure inlining. No functional change intended.

strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool(). However, the latter is more used within the kernel. In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to the other function name. While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/2597e80cb7059ec6ad63a01b77d7c944dcc99195.1673716768.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by:

kexec allows replacing the current kernel with a different one. This is usually a source of concerns for sysadmins that want to harden a system. Linux already provides a way to disable loading new kexec kernel via kexec_load_disabled, but that control is very coard, it is all or nothing and does not make distinction between a panic kexec and a normal kexec. This patch introduces new sysctl parameters, with finer tuning to specify how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded. The sysadmin can set different limits for kexec panic and kexec reboot kernels. The value can be modified at runtime via sysctl, but only with a stricter value. With these new parameters on place, a system with loadpin and verity enabled, using the following kernel parameters: sysctl.kexec_load_limit_reboot=0 sysct.kexec_load_limit_panic=1 can have a good warranty that if initrd tries to load a panic kernel, a malitious user will have small chances to replace that kernel with a different one, even if they can trigger timeouts on the disk where the panic kernel lives.

Patch series "kexec: Add new parameter to limit the access to kexec", v6. Add two parameter to specify how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded. These parameter allow hardening the system. While we are at it, fix a documentation issue and refactor some code. This patch (of 3): kexec_load_disabled affects both ``kexec_load`` and ``kexec_file_load`` syscalls. Make it explicit.
