2022-05-13lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()Jagdish Gediya1-1/+5
At many places in kernel, It is necessary to convert sysfs input to corresponding bool value e.g. "false" or "0" need to be converted to bool false, "true" or "1" need to be converted to bool true, places where such conversion is needed currently check the input string manually, kstrtobool() can be utilized at such places but currently it doesn't have support to accept "false"/"true". Add support to accept "false"/"true" as valid string in kstrtobool().

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out kstrtox() and simple_strtox() helpers. At the same time convert users in header and lib folders to use new header. Though for time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

2021-05-19lib: vsprintf: Fix handling of number field widths in vsscanfRichard Fitzgerald1-3/+10
The existing code attempted to handle numbers by doing a strto[u]l(), ignoring the field width, and then repeatedly dividing to extract the field out of the full converted value. If the string contains a run of valid digits longer than will fit in a long or long long, this would overflow and no amount of dividing can recover the correct value. This patch fixes vsscanf() to obey number field widths when parsing the number. A new _parse_integer_limit() is added that takes a limit for the number of characters to parse. The number field conversion in vsscanf is changed to use this new function. If a number starts with a radix prefix, the field width must be long enough for at last one digit after the prefix. If not, it will be handled like this: sscanf("0x4", "%1i", &i): i=0, scanning continues with the 'x' sscanf("0x4", "%2i", &i): i=0, scanning continues with the '4' This is consistent with the observed behaviour of userland sscanf. Note that this patch does NOT fix the problem of a single field value overflowing the target type. So for example: sscanf("123456789abcdef", "%x", &i); Will not produce the correct result because the value obviously overflows INT_MAX. But sscanf will report a successful conversion. Note that where a very large number is used to mean "unlimited", the value INT_MAX is used for consistency with the behaviour of vsnprintf().

2020-08-12kstrto*: do not describe simple_strto*() as obsolete/replacedKars Mulder1-8/+4
The documentation of the kstrto*() functions describes kstrto*() as "replacements" of the "obsolete" simple_strto*() functions. Both of these terms are inaccurate: they're not replacements because they have different behaviour, and the simple_strto*() are not obsolete because there are cases where they have benefits over kstrto*(). Remove usage of the terms "replacement" and "obsolete" in reference to simple_strto*(), and instead use the term "preferred over".

2020-08-12kstrto*: correct documentation references to simple_strto*()Kars Mulder1-4/+4
The documentation of the kstrto*() functions reference the simple_strtoull function by "used as a replacement for [the obsolete] simple_strtoull". All these functions describes themselves as replacements for the function simple_strtoull, even though a function like kstrtol() would be more aptly described as a replacement of simple_strtol(). Fix these references by making the documentation of kstrto*() reference the closest simple_strto*() equivalent available. The functions kstrto[u]int() do not have direct simple_strto[u]int() equivalences, so these are made to refer to simple_strto[u]l() instead. Furthermore, add parentheses after function names, as is standard in kernel documentation.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2012-02-09Reduce the number of expensive division instructions done by _parse_integer()David Howells1-5/+13
_parse_integer() does one or two division instructions (which are slow) per digit parsed to perform the overflow check. Furthermore, these are particularly expensive examples of division instruction as the number of clock cycles required to complete them may go up with the position of the most significant set bit in the dividend: if (*res > div_u64(ULLONG_MAX - val, base)) which is as maximal as possible. Worse, on 32-bit arches, more than one of these division instructions may be required per digit. So, assuming we don't support a base of more than 16, skip the check if the top nibble of the result is not set at this point.

2011-05-25lib: add kstrto*_from_user()Alexey Dobriyan1-0/+26
There is quite a lot of code which does copy_from_user() + strict_strto*() or simple_strto*() combo in slightly different ways. Before doing conversions all over tree, let's get final API correct. Enter kstrtoull_from_user() and friends. Typical code which uses them looks very simple: TYPE val; int rv; rv = kstrtoTYPE_from_user(buf, count, 0, &val); if (rv < 0) return rv; [use val] return count; There is a tiny semantic difference from the plain kstrto*() API -- the latter allows any amount of leading zeroes, while the former copies data into buffer on stack and thus allows leading zeroes as long as it fits into buffer. This shouldn't be a problem for typical usecase "echo 42 > /proc/x". The point is to make reading one integer from userspace _very_ simple and very bug free.

2011-03-23kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) rightAlexey Dobriyan1-0/+227
1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty, libc way to indicate failure. 2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and comments pretend they do. 3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants, but users want strtou8() 4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong: Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist because conversion should be strict by default. The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types. Enter kstrtoull() kstrtoll() kstrtoul() kstrtol() kstrtouint() kstrtoint() kstrtou64() kstrtos64() kstrtou32() kstrtos32() kstrtou16() kstrtos16() kstrtou8() kstrtos8() Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well. strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and eventually will be removed altogether. Use kstrto*() in code today! Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution, because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and __alignof__ at least always works.
