      fs/hpfs: extend gmt_to_local() conversion to 64-bit times · f08957d0
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      The VFS timestamps are all 64-bit now, the only missing piece for hpfs
      is the internal conversion function.  One interesting bit about hpfs is
      that it can already deal with moving the 136 year window of its
      timestamps to support a much wider range than other file systems with
      32-bit timestamps.  It also treats the timestamps as 'unsigned' on
      64-bit architectures (but signed on 32-bit, because time_t always around
      to negative numbers in 2038).
      
      Changing the conversion to use time64_t makes 32-bit architectures
      behave the same way as 64-bit.  For completeness, this also adds a
      clamp_t call for each conversion, so we don't wrap the timestamps but
      instead stay within the [0..U32_MAX] range of the on-disk timestamps.

      treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array() · 6da2ec56
      Kees Cook authored
      
      The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
      patch replaces cases of:
      
              kmalloc(a * b, gfp)
      
      with:
              kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)
      
      as well as handling cases of:
      
              kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)
      
      with:
      
              kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)
      
      as it's slightly less ugly than:
      
              kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)
      
      This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:
      
              kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)
      
      though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.
      
      Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
      dropped, since they're redundant.
      
      The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
      implementation of kmalloc().
      
      The Coccinelle script used for this was:

      Rename superblock flags (MS_xyz -> SB_xyz) · 1751e8a6
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel
      superblock flags.
      
      The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the
      moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to.
      
      Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call,
      while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb->s_flags.
      
      The script to do this was:
      
          # places to look in; re security/*: it generally should *not* be
          # touched (that stuff parses mount(2) arguments directly), but

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files

       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      fs: convert a pile of fsync routines to errseq_t based reporting · 3b49c9a1
      Jeff Layton authored
      
      This patch converts most of the in-kernel filesystems that do writeback
      out of the pagecache to report errors using the errseq_t-based
      infrastructure that was recently added. This allows them to report
      errors once for each open file description.
      
      Most filesystems have a fairly straightforward fsync operation. They
      call filemap_write_and_wait_range to write back all of the data and
      wait on it, and then (sometimes) sync out the metadata.
      
      For those filesystems this is a straightforward conversion from calling
      filemap_write_and_wait_range in their fsync operation to calling
      file_write_and_wait_range.

      vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash · 8387ff25
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
      did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
      lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
      instead of late.
      
      A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
      pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.
      
      Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
      NULL pointer as a no-salt.

      hpfs: implement the show_options method · 037369b8
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      
      The HPFS filesystem used generic_show_options to produce string that is
      displayed in /proc/mounts.  However, there is a problem that the options
      may disappear after remount.  If we mount the filesystem with option1
      and then remount it with option2, /proc/mounts should show both option1
      and option2, however it only shows option2 because the whole option
      string is replaced with replace_mount_options in hpfs_remount_fs.
      
      To fix this bug, implement the hpfs_show_options function that prints
      options that are currently selected.

      hpfs: fix remount failure when there are no options changed · 44d51706
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      
      Commit ce657611 ("hpfs: kstrdup() out of memory handling") checks if
      the kstrdup function returns NULL due to out-of-memory condition.
      
      However, if we are remounting a filesystem with no change to
      filesystem-specific options, the parameter data is NULL.  In this case,
      kstrdup returns NULL (because it was passed NULL parameter), although no
      out of memory condition exists.  The mount syscall then fails with
      ENOMEM.
      
      This patch fixes the bug.  We fail with ENOMEM only if data is non-NULL.
      
      The patch also changes the call to replace_mount_options - if we didn't
      pass any filesystem-specific options, we don't call
      replace_mount_options (thus we don't erase existing reported options).

      hpfs: don't truncate the file when delete fails · b6853f78
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      
      The delete opration can allocate additional space on the HPFS filesystem
      due to btree split. The HPFS driver checks in advance if there is
      available space, so that it won't corrupt the btree if we run out of space
      during splitting.
      
      If there is not enough available space, the HPFS driver attempted to
      truncate the file, but this results in a deadlock since the commit
      7dd29d8d ("HPFS: Introduce a global mutex
      and lock it on every callback from VFS").
      
      This patch removes the code that tries to truncate the file and -ENOSPC is
      returned instead. If the user hits -ENOSPC on delete, he should try to
      delete other files (that are stored in a leaf btree node), so that the
      delete operation will make some space for deleting the file stored in
      non-leaf btree node.

      kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg · 5d097056

      Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
      userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
      memcg.  For the list, see below:
      
       - threadinfo
       - task_struct
       - task_delay_info
       - pid
       - cred
       - mm_struct
       - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
       - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
       - signal_struct
       - sighand_struct
       - fs_struct
       - files_struct
       - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
       - dentry and external_name
       - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
         most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.
      
      The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
      Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
      keep most workloads within bounds.  Malevolent users will be able to
      breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
      everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
      fact).
