Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues
at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in
Makefile). For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a
number, like the issue fixed in commit a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show
rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments
do not match the format string, c.f. for example commit 5ce1aca81435
("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string").
To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every
function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/. These
functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format
flag.

s390 has a constant hugepage size, by setting HPAGE_SHIFT we also change
e.g. the pageblock_order, which should be independent in respect to
hugepage support.
With this patch every architecture is free to define how to check
for hugepage support.

Pull final init.h/module.h code relocation from Paul Gortmaker:

added that gets upset by this small code move, and we've banked yet

sensible) requirements wrt. whether they are needing init.h vs.
module.h macros, even if they are not using linux-next.
The diffstat of the move is slightly asymmetrical due to needing to
leave behind a couple #ifdef in the old location and add the same ones
to the new location, but other than that, it is a 1:1 move, complete
with the module_init/exit trailing semicolon that we can't fix. That

Jonathan writes:
First set of IIO fixes for the 4.2 cycle.
* Fix a regression in hid sensors suspend time as a result of adding runtime
pm. The normal flow of waking up devices in order to go into suspend
(given the devices are normally suspended when not reading) to a regression
in suspend time on some laptops (reports of an additional 8 seconds).
Fix this by checking to see if a user action resulting in the wake up, and
make it a null operation if it didn't. Note that for hid sensors, there is
nothing useful to be done when moving into a full suspend from a runtime
suspend so they might as well be left alone.

the other way. Fix for sx9500 included in this set.
* ad624r - fix a wrong shift in the output data.

applied by too small a type for the device tree parameter.
* cm3323 - clear the bits when setting the integration time (otherwise
we can only ever set more bits in the relevant field).
* bmc150-accel - multiple triggers are registered, but on error were not being
unwound in the opposite order leading to removal of triggers that had not

Commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for
overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb->tstamp to be set to check for
identical CAN skbs.
Without timestamping to be required by user space applications this timestamp
was not generated which lead to commit 36c01245eb8 "can: fix loss of CAN frames
in raw_rcv" - which forces the timestamp to be set in all CAN related skbuffs
by introducing several __net_timestamp() calls.
This forces e.g. out of tree drivers which are not using alloc_can{,fd}_skb()
to add __net_timestamp() after skbuff creation to prevent the frame loss fixed
in mainline Linux.
This patch removes the timestamp dependency and uses an atomic counter to
create an unique identifier together with the skbuff pointer.
Btw: the new skbcnt element introduced in struct can_skb_priv has to be
initialized with zero in out-of-tree drivers which are not using
alloc_can{,fd}_skb() too.

NCM specs are not actually mandating a specific position in the frame for
the NDP (Network Datagram Pointer). However, some Huawei devices will
ignore our aggregates if it is not placed after the datagrams it points
to. Add support for doing just this, in a per-device configurable way.
While at it, update NCM subdrivers, disabling this functionality in all of
them, except in huawei_cdc_ncm where it is enabled instead.
We aren't making any distinction between different Huawei NCM devices,
based on what the vendor driver does. Standard NCM devices are left
unaffected: if they are compliant, they should be always usable, still
stay on the safe side.
This change has been tested and working with a Huawei E3131 device (which
works regardless of NDP position), a Huawei E3531 (also working both
ways) and an E3372 (which mandates NDP to be after indexed datagrams).
V1->V2:
- corrected wrong NDP acronym definition
- fixed possible NULL pointer dereference
- patch cleanup

e48453c386f3 ("block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg
data") updated per-blkcg policy data to be dynamically allocated.
When a policy is registered, its policy data aren't created. Instead,
when the policy is activated on a queue, the policy data are allocated
if there are blkg's (blkcg_gq's) which are attached to a given blkcg.
This is buggy. Consider the following scenario.
1. A blkcg is created. No blkg's attached yet.
2. The policy is registered. No policy data is allocated.
3. The policy is activated on a queue. As the above blkcg doesn't
have any blkg's, it won't allocate the matching blkcg_policy_data.
4. An IO is issued from the blkcg and blkg is created and the blkcg
still doesn't have the matching policy data allocated.
With cfq-iosched, this leads to an oops.
It also doesn't free policy data on policy unregistration assuming
that freeing of all policy data on blkcg destruction should take care
of it; however, this also is incorrect.
1. A blkcg has policy data.
2. The policy gets unregistered but the policy data remains.
3. Another policy gets registered on the same slot.
4. Later, the new policy tries to allocate policy data on the previous
blkcg but the slot is already occupied and gets skipped. The
policy ends up operating on the policy data of the previous policy.
There's no reason to manage blkcg_policy_data lazily. The reason we
do lazy allocation of blkg's is that the number of all possible blkg's
is the product of cgroups and block devices which can reach a
surprising level. blkcg_policy_data is contrained by the number of
cgroups and shouldn't be a problem.
This patch makes blkcg_policy_data to be allocated for all existing
blkcg's on policy registration and freed on unregistration and removes
blkcg_policy_data handling from policy [de]activation paths. This
makes that blkcg_policy_data are created and removed with the policy
they belong to and fixes the above described problems.

development takes place (before it is pushed to korg and then to you).
The goal here is to move closer to a situation where Ilya Dryomov or
one of the other maintainers can push things to you if I am

upstream recently; you should not be surprised to hear from him if I

When a cpu goes up some architectures (e.g. x86) have to walk the irq
space to set up the vector space for the cpu. While this needs extra
protection at the architecture level we can avoid a few race
conditions by preventing the concurrent allocation/free of irq
descriptors and the associated data.
When a cpu goes down it moves the interrupts which are targeted to
this cpu away by reassigning the affinities. While this happens
interrupts can be allocated and freed, which opens a can of race
conditions in the code which reassignes the affinities because
interrupt descriptors might be freed underneath.
Example:
CPU1 CPU2
cpu_up/down
irq_desc = irq_to_desc(irq);
remove_from_radix_tree(desc);
raw_spin_lock(&desc->lock);
free(desc);
We could protect the irq descriptors with RCU, but that would require
a full tree change of all accesses to interrupt descriptors. But
fortunately these kind of race conditions are rather limited to a few
things like cpu hotplug. The normal setup/teardown is very well
serialized. So the simpler and obvious solution is:
Prevent allocation and freeing of interrupt descriptors accross cpu
hotplug.

Currently the broadcast busy check, which prevents the idle code from
going into deep idle, works only in one shot mode.
If NOHZ and HIGHRES are off (config or command line) there is no
sanity check at all, so under certain conditions cpus are allowed to
go into deep idle, where the local timer stops, and are not woken up
again because there is no broadcast timer installed or a hrtimer based
broadcast device is not evaluated.
Move tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() into the common code and provide
proper subfunctions for the various config combinations.
The common check in tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() is for the C3STOP
misfeature flag of the local clock event device. If its not set, idle
can proceed. If set, further checks are necessary.
Provide checks for the trivial cases:
- If broadcast is disabled in the config, then return busy
- If oneshot mode (NOHZ/HIGHES) is disabled in the config, return
busy if the broadcast device is hrtimer based.
- If oneshot mode is enabled in the config call the original
tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() function. That function needs
extra checks which will be implemented in seperate patches.

Device drivers typically use ACPI _HIDs/_CIDs listed in struct device_driver
acpi_match_table to match devices. However, for generic drivers, we do not
want to list _HID for all supported devices. Also, certain classes of devices
do not have _CID (e.g. SATA, USB). Instead, we can leverage ACPI _CLS,
which specifies PCI-defined class code (i.e. base-class, subclass and
programming interface). This patch adds support for matching ACPI devices using
the _CLS method.
To support loadable module, current design uses _HID or _CID to match device's
modalias. With the new way of matching with _CLS this would requires modification
to the current ACPI modalias key to include _CLS. This patch appends PCI-defined
class-code to the existing ACPI modalias as following.
acpi:<HID>:<CID1>:<CID2>:..:<CIDn>:<bbsspp>:
E.g:
# cat /sys/devices/platform/AMDI0600:00/modalias
acpi:AMDI0600:010601:
where bb is th base-class code, ss is te sub-class code, and pp is the
programming interface code
Since there would not be _HID/_CID in the ACPI matching table of the driver,
this patch adds a field to acpi_device_id to specify the matching _CLS.
static const struct acpi_device_id ahci_acpi_match[] = {
{ ACPI_DEVICE_CLASS(PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_SATA_AHCI, 0xffffff) },
{},
};
In this case, the corresponded entry in modules.alias file would be:
alias acpi*:010601:* ahci_platform

This effectively reverts the following three commits:
7bc10388ccdd ACPI / resources: free memory on error in add_region_before()
0f1b414d1907 ACPI / PNP: Avoid conflicting resource reservations
b9a5e5e18fbf ACPI / init: Fix the ordering of acpi_reserve_resources()
(commit b9a5e5e18fbf introduced regressions some of which, but not
all, were addressed by commit 0f1b414d1907 and commit 7bc10388ccdd
was a fixup on top of the latter) and causes ACPI fixed hardware
resources to be reserved at the fs_initcall_sync stage of system
initialization.
The story is as follows. First, a boot regression was reported due
to an apparent resource reservation ordering change after a commit
that shouldn't lead to such changes. Investigation led to the
conclusion that the problem happened because acpi_reserve_resources()
was executed at the device_initcall() stage of system initialization
which wasn't strictly ordered with respect to driver initialization
(and with respect to the initialization of the pcieport driver in
particular), so a random change causing the device initcalls to be
run in a different order might break things.
The response to that was to attempt to run acpi_reserve_resources()
as soon as we knew that ACPI would be in use (commit b9a5e5e18fbf).
However, that turned out to be too early, because it caused resource
reservations made by the PNP system driver to fail on at least one
system and that failure was addressed by commit 0f1b414d1907.
That fix still turned out to be insufficient, though, because
calling acpi_reserve_resources() before the fs_initcall stage of
system initialization caused a boot regression to happen on the
eCAFE EC-800-H20G/S netbook. That meant that we only could call
acpi_reserve_resources() at the fs_initcall initialization stage
or later, but then we might just as well call it after the PNP
initalization in which case commit 0f1b414d1907 wouldn't be
necessary any more.
For this reason, the changes made by commit 0f1b414d1907 are reverted
(along with a memory leak fixup on top of that commit), the changes
made by commit b9a5e5e18fbf that went too far are reverted too and
acpi_reserve_resources() is changed into fs_initcall_sync, which
will cause it to be executed after the PNP subsystem initialization
(which is an fs_initcall) and before device initcalls (including
the pcieport driver initialization) which should avoid the initial
issue.

Modular users will always be users of init functionality, but
users of init functionality are not necessarily always modules.
Hence any functionality like module_init and module_exit would
be more at home in the module.h file. And module.h should
explicitly include init.h to make the dependency clear.
We've already done all the legwork needed to ensure that this
move does not cause any build regressions due to implicit
header file include assumptions about where module_init lives.

"It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of
different areas.
The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within
target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric
drivers tree-wide.
There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and
se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a
completely lockless code-path. It also removes the original
hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint.
The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core
and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while
still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes.
The highlights include:
- Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi)
- Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker
(Christophe Vu-Brugier)
- Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover)

Pull virtio/vhost cross endian support from Michael Tsirkin:
"I have just queued some more bugfix patches today but none fix
regressions and none are related to these ones, so it looks like a
good time for a merge for -rc1.
The motivation for this is support for legacy BE guests on the new LE
hosts. There are two redeeming properties that made me merge this:
- It's a trivial amount of code: since we wrap host/guest accesses
anyway, almost all of it is well hidden from drivers.
- Sane platforms would never set flags like VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY,
and when it's clear, there's zero overhead (as some point it was
tested by compiling with and without the patches, got the same
stripped binary).
Maybe we could create a Kconfig symbol to enforce the second point:
prevent people from enabling it eg on x86. I will look into this"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.
Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.
There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems
mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree
directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories
for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container
projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.
This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime,
read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
attributes remains for another time.
This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of
/proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
converted) and is not now actively wrong.
There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
I will mention briefly.
It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user
namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly
so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
performance part of pathname resolution.
As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
