<title>lib/clz_ctz.c: Fix __clzdi2() and __ctzdi2() for 32-bit kernels</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=382d4cd1847517ffcb1800fd462b625db7b2ebea'/>
<id>urn:sha1:382d4cd1847517ffcb1800fd462b625db7b2ebea</id>
<content type='text'>
The gcc compiler translates on some architectures the 64-bit
__builtin_clzll() function to a call to the libgcc function __clzdi2(),
which should take a 64-bit parameter on 32- and 64-bit platforms.

But in the current kernel code, the built-in __clzdi2() function is
defined to operate (wrongly) on 32-bit parameters if BITS_PER_LONG ==
32, thus the return values on 32-bit kernels are in the range from
[0..31] instead of the expected [0..63] range.

This patch fixes the in-kernel functions __clzdi2() and __ctzdi2() to
take a 64-bit parameter on 32-bit kernels as well, thus it makes the
functions identical for 32- and 64-bit kernels.

This bug went unnoticed since kernel 3.11 for over 10 years, and here
are some possible reasons for that:

 a) Some architectures have assembly instructions to count the bits and
    which are used instead of calling __clzdi2(), e.g. on x86 the bsr
    instruction and on ppc cntlz is used. On such architectures the
    wrong __clzdi2() implementation isn't used and as such the bug has
    no effect and won't be noticed.

 b) Some architectures link to libgcc.a, and the in-kernel weak
    functions get replaced by the correct 64-bit variants from libgcc.a.

 c) __builtin_clzll() and __clzdi2() doesn't seem to be used in many
    places in the kernel, and most likely only in uncritical functions,
    e.g. when printing hex values via seq_put_hex_ll(). The wrong return
    value will still print the correct number, but just in a wrong
    formatting (e.g. with too many leading zeroes).

 d) 32-bit kernels aren't used that much any longer, so they are less
    tested.

A trivial testcase to verify if the currently running 32-bit kernel is
affected by the bug is to look at the output of /proc/self/maps:

Here the kernel uses a correct implementation of __clzdi2():

  root@debian:~# cat /proc/self/maps
  00010000-00019000 r-xp 00000000 08:05 787324     /usr/bin/cat
  00019000-0001a000 rwxp 00009000 08:05 787324     /usr/bin/cat
  0001a000-0003b000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
  f7551000-f770d000 r-xp 00000000 08:05 794765     /usr/lib/hppa-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
  ...

and this kernel uses the broken implementation of __clzdi2():

  root@debian:~# cat /proc/self/maps
  0000000010000-0000000019000 r-xp 00000000 000000008:000000005 787324  /usr/bin/cat

<id>urn:sha1:cfeb6ae8bcb96ccf674724f223661bbcef7b0d0b</id>
<content type='text'>
The current implementation of append may cause duplicate data and/or
incorrect ranges to be returned to a reader during an update.  Although
this has not been reported or seen, disable the append write operation
while the tree is in rcu mode out of an abundance of caution.

During the analysis of the mas_next_slot() the following was
artificially created by separating the writer and reader code:

Writer:                                 reader:
mas_wr_append
    set end pivot
    updates end metata
    Detects write to last slot
    last slot write is to start of slot
    store current contents in slot
    overwrite old end pivot
                                        mas_next_slot():
                                                read end metadata
                                                read old end pivot
                                                return with incorrect range
    store new value

Alternatively:

Writer:                                 reader:
mas_wr_append
    set end pivot
    updates end metata
    Detects write to last slot
    last lost write to end of slot
    store value
                                        mas_next_slot():
                                                read end metadata
                                                read old end pivot
                                                read new end pivot
                                                return with incorrect range
    set old end pivot

There may be other accesses that are not safe since we are now updating
both metadata and pointers, so disabling append if there could be rcu
readers is the safest action.

Recent versions of clang warn about an unused variable, though older
versions saw the 'slot++' as a use and did not warn:

radix-tree.c:1136:50: error: parameter 'slot' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-parameter]

It's clearly not needed any more, so just remove it.

Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:

 - The recently added cpu_intensive auto detection and warning mechanism
   was spuriously triggered on slow CPUs.

   While not causing serious issues, it's still a nuisance and can cause
   unintended concurrency management behaviors.

   Relax the threshold on machines with lower BogoMIPS. While BogoMIPS
   is not an accurate measure of performance by most measures, we don't
   have to be accurate and it has rough but strong enough correlation.

 - A correction in Kconfig help text

put in extract_user_to_sg() when handling IOVEC/UBUF sources.

Pull char driver and Documentation fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here is a char driver fix and some documentation updates for 6.5-rc4
  that contain the following changes:

   - sram/genalloc bugfix for reported problem

   - security-bugs.rst update based on recent discussions

   - embargoed-hardware-issues minor cleanups and then partial revert
     for the project/company lists

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems, and the documentation updates have all been reviewed by the
  relevant developers"

A previous commit tried to come up with more generic subpool
names, but this isn't quite working: the node name was used
elsewhere to match pools to consumers which regressed the
nVidia Tegra 2/3 video decoder.

Revert back to an earlier approach using of_node_full_name()
instead of just the name to make sure the pool name is more
unique, and change both sites using this in the kernel.

It is not perfect since two SRAM nodes could have the same
subpool name but it makes the situation better than before.
