[ Upstream commit 5a06fcb15b43d1f7bf740c672950122331cb5655 ]

test_kernel_ptr() uses access_ok() to figure out if a given address
points to user space instead of kernel space. However on architectures
that set CONFIG_ALTERNATE_USER_ADDRESS_SPACE, a pointer can be valid
for both, and the check always fails because access_ok() returns true.

Make the check for user space pointers conditional on the type of
address space layout.

[ Upstream commit 23fc539e81295b14b50c6ccc5baeb4f3d59d822d ]

On some architectures, access_ok() does not do any argument type
checking, so replacing the definition with a generic one causes
a few warnings for harmless issues that were never caught before.

Fix the ones that I found either through my own test builds or
that were reported by the 0-day bot.

<title>lib/test_lockup.c: fix return value of test_lockup_init()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3adf3bae0d612357da516d39e1584f1547eb6e86</id>
<content type='text'>
Since filp_open() returns an error pointer, we should use IS_ERR() to
check the return value and then return PTR_ERR() if failed to get the
actual return value instead of always -EINVAL.

E.g. without this patch:

[root@localhost loongson]# ls no_such_file
ls: cannot access no_such_file: No such file or directory
[root@localhost loongson]# modprobe test_lockup file_path=no_such_file lock_sb_umount time_secs=60 state=S
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'test_lockup': Invalid argument
[root@localhost loongson]# dmesg | tail -1
[  126.100596] test_lockup: cannot find file_path

With this patch:

[root@localhost loongson]# ls no_such_file
ls: cannot access no_such_file: No such file or directory
[root@localhost loongson]# modprobe test_lockup file_path=no_such_file lock_sb_umount time_secs=60 state=S
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'test_lockup': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
[root@localhost loongson]# dmesg | tail -1
[   95.134362] test_lockup: failed to open no_such_file: -2

<title>treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3f649ab728cda8038259d8f14492fe400fbab911</id>
<content type='text'>
Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

Better describe what this helper does, and match the naming of
copy_from_kernel_nofault.

Also switch the argument order around, so that it acts and looks
like get_user().

file_path=&lt;path&gt;	defines file or directory to open
lock_inode=Y		set lock_rwsem_ptr to inode-&gt;i_rwsem
lock_mapping=Y		set lock_rwsem_ptr to mapping-&gt;i_mmap_rwsem
lock_sb_umount=Y	set lock_rwsem_ptr to sb-&gt;s_umount

This gives safe and simple way to see how system reacts to contention of
common vfs locks and how syscalls depend on them directly or indirectly.

For example to block s_umount for 60 seconds:
# modprobe test_lockup file_path=. lock_sb_umount time_secs=60 state=S

This is useful for checking/testing scalability issues like this:
