Add a few initial respective tests for an array:
o Echoing values separated by spaces works
o Echoing only first elements will set first elements
o Confirm PAGE_SIZE limit still applies even if an array is used

Test against a simple proc_douintvec() case. While at it, add a test
against UINT_MAX. Make sure UINT_MAX works, and UINT_MAX+1 will fail
and that negative values are not accepted.

Add the following tests to ensure we do not regress:
o Test using a buffer full of space (PAGE_SIZE-1) followed by a
single digit works
o Test using a buffer full of spaces (PAGE_SIZE or over) will fail
As tests increase instead of unloading the module and reloading it we
can just do a shell reset_vals() with a reset to values we know are set
at init on the driver.

This adds a generic script to let us more easily add more tests cases.
Since we really have only two types of tests cases just fold them into
the one file. Each test unit is now identified into its separate
function:
# ./sysctl.sh -l
Test ID list:
TEST_ID x NUM_TEST
TEST_ID: Test ID
NUM_TESTS: Number of recommended times to run the test
0001 x 1 - tests proc_dointvec_minmax()
0002 x 1 - tests proc_dostring()
For now we start off with what we had before, and run only each test
once. We can now watch a test case until it fails:
./sysctl.sh -w 0002
We can also run a test case x number of times, say we want to run a test
case 100 times:
./sysctl.sh -c 0001 100
To run a test case only once, for example:
./sysctl.sh -s 0002
The default settings are specified at the top of sysctl.sh.

The existing tools/testing/selftests/sysctl/ tests include two test
cases, but these use existing production kernel sysctl interfaces. We
want to expand test coverage but we can't just be looking for random
safe production values to poke at, that's just insane!
Instead just dedicate a test driver for debugging purposes and port the
existing scripts to use it. This will make it easier for further tests
to be added.
Subsequent patches will extend our test coverage for sysctl.
The stress test driver uses a new license (GPL on Linux, copyleft-next
outside of Linux). Linus was fine with this [0] and later due to Ted's
and Alans's request ironed out an "or" language clause to use [1] which
is already present upstream.

To keep parity with regular int interfaces provide the an unsigned int
proc_douintvec_minmax() which allows you to specify a range of allowed
valid numbers.
Adding proc_douintvec_minmax_sysadmin() is easy but we can wait for an
actual user for that.

Commit e7d316a02f68 ("sysctl: handle error writing UINT_MAX to u32
fields") added proc_douintvec() to start help adding support for
unsigned int, this however was only half the work needed. Two fixes
have come in since then for the following issues:
o Printing the values shows a negative value, this happens since
do_proc_dointvec() and this uses proc_put_long()
This was fixed by commit 5380e5644afbba9 ("sysctl: don't print negative
flag for proc_douintvec").
o We can easily wrap around the int values: UINT_MAX is 4294967295, if
we echo in 4294967295 + 1 we end up with 0, using 4294967295 + 2 we
end up with 1.
o We echo negative values in and they are accepted
This was fixed by commit 425fffd886ba ("sysctl: report EINVAL if value
is larger than UINT_MAX for proc_douintvec").
It still also failed to be added to sysctl_check_table()... instead of
adding it with the current implementation just provide a proper and
simplified unsigned int support without any array unsigned int support
with no negative support at all.
Historically sysctl proc helpers have supported arrays, due to the
complexity this adds though we've taken a step back to evaluate array
users to determine if its worth upkeeping for unsigned int. An
evaluation using Coccinelle has been done to perform a grammatical
search to ask ourselves:
o How many sysctl proc_dointvec() (int) users exist which likely
should be moved over to proc_douintvec() (unsigned int) ?
Answer: about 8
- Of these how many are array users ?
Answer: Probably only 1
o How many sysctl array users exist ?
Answer: about 12
This last question gives us an idea just how popular arrays: they are not.
Array support should probably just be kept for strings.
The identified uint ports are:
drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c - max_backlog
drivers/infiniband/core/iwcm.c - default_backlog
net/core/sysctl_net_core.c - rps_sock_flow_sysctl()
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timestamp.c - nf_conntrack_timestamp -- bool
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_acct.c nf_conntrack_acct -- bool
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ecache.c - nf_conntrack_events -- bool
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper.c - nf_conntrack_helper -- bool
net/phonet/sysctl.c proc_local_port_range()
The only possible array users is proc_local_port_range() but it does not
seem worth it to add array support just for this given the range support
works just as well. Unsigned int support should be desirable more for
when you *need* more than INT_MAX or using int min/max support then does
not suffice for your ranges.
If you forget and by mistake happen to register an unsigned int proc
entry with an array, the driver will fail and you will get something as
follows:

Patch series "sysctl: few fixes", v5.
I've been working on making kmod more deterministic, and as I did that I
couldn't help but notice a few issues with sysctl. My end goal was just
to fix unsigned int support, which back then was completely broken.
Liping Zhang has sent up small atomic fixes, however it still missed yet
one more fix and Alexey Dobriyan had also suggested to just drop array
support given its complexity.
I have inspected array support using Coccinelle and indeed its not that
popular, so if in fact we can avoid it for new interfaces, I agree its
best.
I did develop a sysctl stress driver but will hold that off for another
series.
This patch (of 5):
Commit 7c60c48f58a7 ("sysctl: Improve the sysctl sanity checks")
improved sanity checks considerbly, however the enhancements on
sysctl_check_table() meant adding a functional change so that only the
last table entry's sanity error is propagated. It also changed the way
errors were propagated so that each new check reset the err value, this
means only last sanity check computed is used for an error. This has
been in the kernel since v3.4 days.
Fix this by carrying on errors from previous checks and iterations as we
traverse the table and ensuring we keep any error from previous checks.
We keep iterating on the table even if an error is found so we can
complain for all errors found in one shot. This works as -EINVAL is
always returned on error anyway, and the check for error is any non-zero
value.

Currently vmcoreinfo data is updated at boot time subsys_initcall(), it
has the risk of being modified by some wrong code during system is
running.
As a result, vmcore dumped may contain the wrong vmcoreinfo. Later on,
when using "crash", "makedumpfile", etc utility to parse this vmcore, we
probably will get "Segmentation fault" or other unexpected errors.
E.g. 1) wrong code overwrites vmcoreinfo_data; 2) further crashes the
system; 3) trigger kdump, then we obviously will fail to recognize the
crash context correctly due to the corrupted vmcoreinfo.
Now except for vmcoreinfo, all the crash data is well
protected(including the cpu note which is fully updated in the crash
path, thus its correctness is guaranteed). Given that vmcoreinfo data
is a large chunk prepared for kdump, we better protect it as well.
To solve this, we relocate and copy vmcoreinfo_data to the crash memory
when kdump is loading via kexec syscalls. Because the whole crash
memory will be protected by existing arch_kexec_protect_crashkres()
mechanism, we naturally protect vmcoreinfo_data from write(even read)
access under kernel direct mapping after kdump is loaded.
Since kdump is usually loaded at the very early stage after boot, we can
trust the correctness of the vmcoreinfo data copied.
On the other hand, we still need to operate the vmcoreinfo safe copy
when crash happens to generate vmcoreinfo_note again, we rely on vmap()
to map out a new kernel virtual address and update to use this new one
instead in the following crash_save_vmcoreinfo().
BTW, we do not touch vmcoreinfo_note, because it will be fully updated
using the protected vmcoreinfo_data after crash which is surely correct
just like the cpu crash note.

vmcoreinfo_max_size stands for the vmcoreinfo_data, the correct one we
should use is vmcoreinfo_note whose total size is VMCOREINFO_NOTE_SIZE.
Like explained in commit 77019967f06b ("kdump: fix exported size of
vmcoreinfo note"), it should not affect the actual function, but we
better fix it, also this change should be safe and backward compatible.
After this, we can get rid of variable vmcoreinfo_max_size, let's use
the corresponding macros directly, fewer variables means more safety for
vmcoreinfo operation.

As Eric said,
"what we need to do is move the variable vmcoreinfo_note out of the
kernel's .bss section. And modify the code to regenerate and keep this
information in something like the control page.
Definitely something like this needs a page all to itself, and ideally
far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not
watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in
the kernel's .bss section."
This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one
advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because
vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.

With gcc 4.1.2:

Interestingly, create_huge_pmd() is emitted in the assembler output, but

Converting transparent_hugepage_enabled() from a macro to a static
inline function reduced the ability of the compiler to remove unused

Fix this by marking create_huge_pmd() inline.

If the first parameter of container_of() is a pointer to a
non-const-qualified array type (and the third parameter names a
non-const-qualified array member), the local variable __mptr will be
defined with a const-qualified array type. In ISO C, these types are
incompatible. They work as expected in GNU C, but some versions will
issue warnings. For example, GCC 4.9 produces the warning
"initialization from incompatible pointer type".
Here is an example of where the problem occurs:
-------------------------------------------------------
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
struct st {
int a;
char b[16];
};
static int __init example_init(void) {
struct st t = { .a = 101, .b = "hello" };
char (*p)[16] = &t.b;
struct st *x = container_of(p, struct st, b);
printk(KERN_DEBUG "%p %p\n", (void *)&t, (void *)x);
return 0;
}
static void __exit example_exit(void) {
}
module_init(example_init);
module_exit(example_exit);
-------------------------------------------------------
Building the module with gcc-4.9 results in these warnings (where '{m}'
is the module source and '{k}' is the kernel source):
-------------------------------------------------------
In file included from {m}/example.c:1:0:
{m}/example.c: In function `example_init':
{k}/include/linux/kernel.h:854:48: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
const typeof( ((type *)0)->member ) *__mptr = (ptr); \
^
{m}/example.c:14:17: note: in expansion of macro `container_of'
struct st *x = container_of(p, struct st, b);
^
{k}/include/linux/kernel.h:854:48: warning: (near initialization for `x')

^
{m}/example.c:14:17: note: in expansion of macro `container_of'
struct st *x = container_of(p, struct st, b);
^
-------------------------------------------------------
Replace the type checking performed by the macro to avoid these
warnings. Make sure `*(ptr)` either has type compatible with the
member, or has type compatible with `void`, ignoring qualifiers. Raise
compiler errors if this is not true. This is stronger than the previous
behaviour, which only resulted in compiler warnings for a type mismatch.

If we have more than 32 unicast MAC addresses assigned to an interface
we will read beyond the end of the address table in the driver when
adding filters. The next 256 entries store multicast addresses, so we
will end up attempting to insert duplicate filters, which is mostly
harmless. If we add more than 288 unicast addresses we will then read
past the multicast address table, which is likely to be more exciting.

Commit dc15e71eefc7 (PCI / PM: Restore PME Enable if skipping wakeup
setup) introduced a mechanism by which the PME Enable bit can be
restored by pci_enable_wake() if dev->wakeup_prepared is set in
case it has been overwritten by PCI config space restoration.
However, that commit overlooked the fact that on some systems (Dell
XPS13 9360 in particular) the AML handling wakeup events checks PME
Status and PME Enable and it won't trigger a Notify() for devices
where those bits are not set while it is running.
That happens during resume from suspend-to-idle when pci_restore_state()
invoked by pci_pm_default_resume_early() clears PME Enable before the
wakeup events are processed by AML, effectively causing those wakeup
events to be ignored.
Fix this issue by restoring the PME Enable configuration right after
pci_restore_state() has been called instead of doing that in
pci_enable_wake().

This patch adds a few lines to the KVM common code to fire a
KOBJ_CHANGE uevent whenever a KVM VM is created or destroyed. The event
carries five environment variables:
CREATED indicates how many times a new VM has been created. It is
useful for example to trigger specific actions when the first
VM is started
COUNT indicates how many VMs are currently active. This can be used for
logging or monitoring purposes
PID has the pid of the KVM process that has been started or stopped.
This can be used to perform process-specific tuning.
STATS_PATH contains the path in debugfs to the directory with all the
runtime statistics for this VM. This is useful for performance
monitoring and profiling.
EVENT described the type of event, its value can be either "create" or
"destroy"
Specific udev rules can be then set up in userspace to deal with the
creation or destruction of VMs as needed.

the change in rdmsr_interception) makes the debug.flat KVM unit test

* In svm_queue_exception where it's used only for moving the rip forward
* In task_switch_interception which is analogous to handle_task_switch

kvm master clock usually has a different frequency than the kernel boot
clock. This is not a problem until the master clock is updated;
update uses the current kernel boot clock to compute new kvm clock,
which erases any kvm clock cycles that might have built up due to
frequency difference over a long period.
KVM_SET_CLOCK is one of places where we can safely update master clock
as the guest-visible clock is going to be shifted anyway.
The problem with current code is that it updates the kvm master clock
after updating the offset. If the master clock was enabled before
calling KVM_SET_CLOCK, then it might have built up a significant delta
from kernel boot clock.
In the worst case, the time set by userspace would be shifted by so much
that it couldn't have been set at any point during KVM_SET_CLOCK.
To fix this, move kvm_gen_update_masterclock() before computing
kvmclock_offset, which means that the master clock and kernel boot clock
will be sufficiently close together.
Another solution would be to replace get_kvmclock_ns() with
"ktime_get_boot_ns() + ka->kvmclock_offset", which is marginally more
accurate, but would break symmetry with KVM_GET_CLOCK.

Factoring ctime into the nfsv4 change attribute gives us better
properties than just i_version alone.
Eventually we'll likely also expose this (as opposed to raw i_version)
to userspace, at which point we'll want to move it to a common helper,
called from either userspace or individual filesystems. For now, nfsd
is the only user.
