Support referencing the root partition label from GPT as argument
to the root= option on the kernel command line in analogy to
referencing the partition uuid as root=PARTUUID=<uuid>.

Specifying the partition label instead of the uuid is often much
easier, e.g. in embedded environments when there is an
A/B rootfs partition scheme for interruptible firmware updates
(i.e. rootfsA/ rootfsB).

The partition label can be queried with the blkid command.

Sparse checking used to be disabled on init/do_mounts.c and a few related
files because "Many of the syscalls used in this file expect some of the
arguments to be __user pointers not __kernel pointers".

However since 28128c61 ("kconfig.h: Include compiler types to avoid
missed struct attributes") the checks are, in fact, not disabled anymore
because of the more early include of "linux/compiler_types.h"

So remove the now ineffective #undefery that was done to disable these
warnings, as well as the associated comment.

Differentiate the MS_* flags passed to mount(2) from the internal flags set
in the super_block's s_flags.  s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names
and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're
equivalent to.

In this patch, just the headers are altered and some kernel code where
blind automated conversion isn't necessarily correct.

Note that this shows up some interesting issues:

 (1) Some MS_* flags get translated to MNT_* flags (such as MS_NODEV ->
     MNT_NODEV) without passing this on to the filesystem, but some
     filesystems set such flags anyway.

 (2) The ->remount_fs() methods of some filesystems adjust the *flags
     argument by setting MS_* flags in it, such as MS_NOATIME - but these
     flags are then scrubbed by do_remount_sb() (only the occupants of
     MS_RMT_MASK are permitted: MS_RDONLY, MS_SYNCHRONOUS, MS_MANDLOCK,
     MS_I_VERSION and MS_LAZYTIME)

I'm not sure what's the best way to solve all these cases.

Commit 283e7ad0 ("init: stricter checking of major:minor root=
values") was so strict that it exposed the fact that a previously
unknown device format was being used.

Distributions like Ubuntu uses klibc (rather than uswsusp) to resume
system from hibernation.  klibc expressed the swap partition/file in
the form of major:minor:offset.  For example, 8:3:0 represents a swap
partition in klibc, and klibc's resume process in initrd will finally
echo 8:3:0 to /sys/power/resume for manually resuming.  However, due
to commit 283e7ad0's stricter checking, 8:3:0 will be treated as an
invalid device format, and manual resuming from hibernation will fail.

Fix this by adding support for devices with major:minor:offset format
when resuming from hibernation.

The goal of this change is to help in unifying DM's interpretation of

But DM rejects malformed major:minor pairs, it seems reasonable for

If mount flags don't have MS_RDONLY, iso9660 returns EACCES without actually
checking if it's an iso image.

This tricks mount_block_root() into retrying with MS_RDONLY.  This results
in a read-only root despite the "rw" boot parameter if the actual
filesystem was checked after iso9660.

I believe the behavior of iso9660 is okay, while that of mount_block_root()
is not.  It should rather try all types without MS_RDONLY and only then
retry with MS_RDONLY.

This change also makes the code more robust against the case when EACCES is
returned despite MS_RDONLY, which would've resulted in a lockup.

This reverts commit 4dfe694f.

In that, we did:

  Here we move the rootdelay code to be right beside the rootwait code, so
  that their behaviour is consistent.

...which is fine, but in hindsight, perhaps moving the rootwait to be
beside the rootdelay would have been better.  We also indicated:

  It should be noted that in doing so, the actions based on the
  saved_root_name[0] and initrd_load() were previously put on hold by
  rootdelay=N and now currently will not be delayed.  However, I think
  consistent behaviour is more important than matching historical behaviour
  of delaying the above two operations.

But Pavel reported an instance where an ARM target with root on MMC
was failing to mount root, and Russell diagnosed it to the fact that
the call to set ROOT_DEV within the saved_root_name[0] processing
block mentioned above was no longer being delayed.

Rather than moving both wait clauses to the original position of
rootdelay and risking unearthing other possible corner case breakage
at this point in time, we simply revert now and we can revisit
trying the alternate/earlier location in another development cycle.

Currently rootdelay=N and rootwait behave differently (aside from the
obvious unbounded wait duration) because they are at different places in
the init sequence.

The difference manifests itself for md devices because the call to
md_run_setup() lives between rootdelay and rootwait, so if you try to use
rootdelay=20 to try and allow a slow RAID0 array to assemble, you get
this:

[    4.526011] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Attached SCSI removable disk
[   22.972079] md: Waiting for all devices to be available before autodetect

i.e.  you've achieved nothing other than delaying the probing 20s, when
what you wanted was a 20s delay _after_ the probing for md devices was
initiated.

Here we move the rootdelay code to be right beside the rootwait code, so
that their behaviour is consistent.

It should be noted that in doing so, the actions based on the
saved_root_name[0] and initrd_load() were previously put on hold by
rootdelay=N and now currently will not be delayed.  However, I think
consistent behaviour is more important than matching historical behaviour

characters long, hence the previous limit.  However, the next patch will
support DOS/MBR UUIDs too, which have a different, shorter, format.
Instead of validating any particular length, just ensure that at least
some non-empty value was given by the user.

Also, consider a missing UUID value to be a parsing error, in the same
vein as if /PARTNROFF exists and can't be parsed.  As such, make both
error cases print a message and disable rootwait.  Convert to pr_err while

This will allow other types of UUID to be stored here, aside from true

constructed from a, used as a, or compared to other, strings.

Note: A simplistic approach here would be to set uuid_str[36]=0 whenever a
/PARTNROFF option was found to be present.  However, this modifies the
input string, and causes subsequent calls to devt_from_partuuid() not to
see the /PARTNROFF option, which causes different results.  In order to
avoid misleading future maintainers, this parameter is marked const.

First, it's incorrect to call putname() after __getname_gfp() since the
bare __getname_gfp() call skips the auditing code, while putname()
doesn't.

mount_block_root allocates a PATH_MAX buffer via __getname_gfp, and then
calls get_fs_names to fill the buffer. That function can call
get_filesystem_list which assumes that that buffer is a full page in
size. On arches where PAGE_SIZE != 4k, then this could potentially
overrun.

In practice, it's hard to imagine the list of filesystem names even
approaching 4k, but it's best to be safe. Just allocate a page for this
purpose instead.

With this, we can also remove the __getname_gfp() definition since there
are no more callers.

The init/mount.o source files produce a number of sparse warnings of the
type:

warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
   expected char [noderef] <asn:1>*dev_name
   got char *name

This is due to the syscalls expecting some of the arguments to be user
pointers but they are being passed as kernel pointers.  This is harmless
but adds a lot of noise to a sparse build.

To limit the noise just disable the sparse checking in the relevant source
files, but still display a warning so that the user knows this has been
done.

Since the sparse checking has been disabled we can also remove the __user

Commit 6829a048102a ("NFS: Retry mounting NFSROOT") introduced retries
when mounting NFS root, which means that now we don't immediately fail
and instead it takes an additional 90+ seconds until we stop retrying,
which has revealed the issue this patch fixes.

This meant that it would take an additional 90 seconds to boot when
we're not using a device type which gets detected in order before NFS.

This patch modifies the NFS type check to require device type to be
'Root_NFS' instead of requiring the device to have an UNNAMED_MAJOR
major.  This makes boot process cleaner since we now won't go through
the NFS mounting code at all when the device isn't an NFS root
("/dev/nfs").

Printing the error code makes it easier to debug the cause of a mount
failure.  For example I had the problem that the root file system could
not be mounted read-writeable because my SD card was write-protected.
Without an error code it looks like the SD card was not detected at all.

Lukas Razik <linux@razik.name> reports that on his SPARC system,
booting with an NFS root file system stopped working after commit
56463e50 "NFS: Use super.c for NFSROOT mount option parsing."

We found that the network switch to which Lukas' client was attached
was delaying access to the LAN after the client's NIC driver reported
that its link was up.  The delay was longer than the timeouts used in
the NFS client during mounting.

NFSROOT worked for Lukas before commit 56463e50 because in those
kernels, the client's first operation was an rpcbind request to
determine which port the NFS server was listening on.  When that
request failed after a long timeout, the client simply selected the
default NFS port (2049).  By that time the switch was allowing access
to the LAN, and the mount succeeded.

Neither of these client behaviors is desirable, so reverting 56463e50
is really not a choice.  Instead, introduce a mechanism that retries
the NFSROOT mount request several times.  This is the same tactic that
normal user space NFS mounts employ to overcome server and network
delays.

Expand root=PARTUUID=UUID syntax to support selecting a root partition by
integer offset from a known, unique partition.  This approach provides
similar properties to specifying a device and partition number, but using
the UUID as the unique path prior to evaluating the offset.

For example,
  root=PARTUUID=99DE9194-FC15-4223-9192-FC243948F88B/PARTNROFF=1
selects the partition with UUID 99DE.. then select the next
partition.

This change is motivated by a particular usecase in Chromium OS where the
bootloader can easily determine what partition it is on (by UUID) but
doesn't perform general partition table walking.

That said, support for this model provides a direct mechanism for the user
to modify the root partition to boot without specifically needing to
extract each UUID or update the bootloader explicitly when the root
partition UUID is changed (if it is recreated to be larger, for instance).
 Pinning to a /boot-style partition UUID allows the arbitrary root
partition reconfiguration/modifications with slightly less ambiguity than
just [dev][partition] and less stringency than the specific root partition
UUID.

printk()s without a priority level default to KERN_WARNING.  To reduce
noise at KERN_WARNING, this patch set the priority level appriopriately
for unleveled printks()s.  This should be useful to folks that look at
dmesg warnings closely.
