<id>urn:sha1:b0085cb94d2477787f4197a3000e33aabf3d48fc</id>
<content type='text'>
The f_op-&gt;mmap interface is deprecated, so update driver to use its
successor, mmap_prepare.

The driver previously used vm_iomap_memory(), so this change replaces it
with its mmap_prepare equivalent, mmap_action_simple_ioremap().

Also, in order to correctly maintain reference counting, add a
vm_ops-&gt;mapped callback to increment the reference count when successfully
mapped.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

hrtimer_setup() takes the callback function pointer as argument and
initializes the timer completely.

Replace hrtimer_init() and the open coded initialization of
hrtimer::function with the new setup mechanism.

Patch was created by using Coccinelle.

<id>urn:sha1:cb787f4ac0c2e439ea8d7e6387b925f74576bdf8</id>
<content type='text'>
no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441
("fs: remove no_llseek")

To quote that commit,

  At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

  git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
	sed -i '/\&lt;no_llseek\&gt;/d' $i
  done

  would do it.

Unfortunately, that hadn't been done.  Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
	.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

<content type='text'>
Package messages from ftrace source with SyS-T Structured Binary Data
(later SBD) header and 64-bit ID. This provides modification-free
compatibility between ftrace and SyS-T arguments structure by applying
0xFFFF mask on message ID.

This happens due to the fact that SBD and ftrace structures have the
same principle of data storage: &lt;header&gt;&lt;args binary blob&gt;.

The headers are bit-to-bit compatible and both contain event/catalog ID
with the exception, that ftrace header contains more fields within 64
bits which needs to be masked during encoding process, since SBD
standard doesn't support mask of ID field.

        0       15  16   23  24     31  32   39  40  63
ftrace: &lt;event_id&gt;  &lt;flags&gt;  &lt;preempt&gt;  &lt;-pid-&gt;  &lt;----&gt;

<content type='text'>
Pass stm source type via stm_write() to allow different handling on
protocol level.

The measure above should allow protocol level encoder to differentiate
and accordingly pack the messages. As an example SyS-T might get use of
ftrace message ID's and instead of applying regular header, pack them
as SyS-T catalog or SyS-T Structured Binary Data message to allow proper
decoding on the other side.

<content type='text'>
Currently kernel HW tracing infrastrtucture and specifically its SyS-T
part treats all source data in the same way. Treating and encoding
different trace data sources differently might allow decoding software
to make use of e.g. ftrace event ids by converting them to a SyS-T
message catalog.

The solution is to keep source type stored within stm_source_data
structure to allow different handling by stm output/protocol.
Currently we only differentiate between STM_USER and STM_FTRACE sources.
