*: convert stream-like files from nonseekable_open -> stream_open

2019-05-06T14:46:41+00:00

Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af3422 ("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods in file_operations which assume @offset access. I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert - and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g. drivers/input/mousedev.c) Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock (see details in 10dce8af3422): drivers/char/pcmcia/cm4000_cs.c:1685:7-23: ERROR: cm4000_fops: .read() can deadlock .write();

char: make misc_deregister a void function

2015-08-05T17:35:49+00:00

With well over 200+ users of this api, there are a mere 12 users that actually checked the return value of this function. And all of them really didn't do anything with that information as the system or module was shutting down no matter what. So stop pretending like it matters, and just return void from misc_deregister(). If something goes wrong in the call, you will get a WARNING splat in the syslog so you know how to fix up your driver.
