unify {de,}mangle_poll(), get rid of kernel-side POLL...

2018-02-11T22:37:22+00:00

except, again, POLLFREE and POLL_BUSY_LOOP. With this, we finally get to the promised end result: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly).

vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement

2018-02-11T22:34:03+00:00

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL* variables as described by Al, done by this script: for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^$[^\"]*$$\$/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done with de-mangling cleanups yet to come. NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Pull more poll annotation updates from Al Viro: "This is preparation to solving the problems you've mentioned in the original poll series. After this series, the kernel is ready for running for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^$[^\"]*$$\$/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done as a for bulk search-and-replace. After that, the kernel is ready to apply the patch to unify {de,}mangle_poll(), and then get rid of kernel-side POLL... uses entirely, and we should be all done with that stuff. Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can use EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to what is currently kernel-side POLL...). After the preparations (in this series) switch to returning EPOLL... from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical and kernel-side POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side POLL... and unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for unified {de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step. After that we will have: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly)" * 'work.poll2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: annotate ep_scan_ready_list() ep_send_events_proc(): return result via esed->res preparation to switching ->poll() to returning EPOLL... add EPOLLNVAL, annotate EPOLL... and event_poll->event use linux/poll.h instead of asm/poll.h xen: fix poll misannotation smc: missing poll annotations

xtensa: fix build with KASAN

2018-02-11T17:18:12+00:00

The commit 917538e212a2 ("kasan: clean up KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT usage") removed KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT definition from include/linux/kasan.h and added it to architecture-specific headers, except for xtensa. This broke the xtensa build with KASAN enabled.

nios2: dts: Remove leading 0x and 0s from bindings notation

2018-02-11T15:04:47+00:00

Improve the DTS files by removing all the leading "0x" and zeros to fix the following dtc warnings: Warning (unit_address_format): Node /XXX unit name should not have leading "0x" and Warning (unit_address_format): Node /XXX unit name should not have leading 0s Converted using the following command: find . -type f $ -iname *.dts -o -iname *.dtsi $ -exec sed -E -i -e "s/@0x([0-9a-fA-F\.]+)\s?\{/@\L\1 \{/g" -e "s/@0+([0-9a-fA-F\.]+)\s?\{/@\L\1 \{/g" {} + For simplicity, two sed expressions were used to solve each warnings separately. To make the regex expression more robust a few other issues were resolved, namely setting unit-address to lower case, and adding a whitespace before the the opening curly brace: https://elinux.org/Device_Tree_Linux#Linux_conventions This is a follow up to commit 4c9847b7375a ("dt-bindings: Remove leading 0x from bindings notation") Reported-by: David Daney Suggested-by: Rob Herring Signed-off-by: Mathieu Malaterre Acked-by: Ley Foon Tan
