43e13cc107 cred: remove task_is_dead() from __task_cred() validation
Commit 8f92054e7c ("CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner
comment"):

    add the following validation condition:

        task->exit_state >= 0

    to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore
    unable to change its own credentials.

OK, but afaics currently this can only help wait_task_zombie() which calls
__task_cred() without rcu lock.

Remove this validation and change wait_task_zombie() to use task_uid()
instead.  This means we do rcu_read_lock() only to shut up the lockdep,
but we already do the same in, say, wait_task_stopped().

task_is_dead() should die, task->exit_state != 0 means that this task has
passed exit_notify(), only do_wait-like code paths should use this.

Unfortunately, we can't kill task_is_dead() right now, it has already
acquired buggy users in drivers/staging.  The fix already exists.

785042f2e2 kmod: move call_usermodehelper_fns() to .c file and unexport all it's helpers
If we move call_usermodehelper_fns() to kmod.c file and EXPORT_SYMBOL it
we can avoid exporting all it's helper functions:
	call_usermodehelper_setup
	call_usermodehelper_setfns
	call_usermodehelper_exec
And make all of them static to kmod.c

Since the optimizer will see all these as a single call site it will
inline them inside call_usermodehelper_fns().  So we loose the call to
_fns but gain 3 calls to the helpers.  (Not that it matters)

78491189dd fat: switch to fsinfo_inode
Currently FAT file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the
FSINFO block.  The FSINFO block contains non-essential data about the
amount of free clusters and the next free cluster.  FAT file-system can
always find out this information by scanning the FAT table, but having it
in the FSINFO block may speed things up sometimes.  So FAT file-system
relies on the VFS superblock write-out services to make sure the FSINFO
block is written out to the media from time to time.

The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the
'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds
and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back.
 But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the
system every 5 seconds no matter what.  So we want to kill it completely
and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super'
VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread.

This patch switches the FAT FSINFO block management from
'->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to 'fsinfo_inode'/'->write_inode'.  Now,
instead of setting the 's_dirt' flag, we just mark the special
'fsinfo_inode' inode as dirty and let VFS invoke the '->write_inode'
call-back when needed, where we write-out the FSINFO block.

This patch also makes sure we do not mark the 'fsinfo_inode' inode as
dirty if we are not FAT32 (FAT16 and FAT12 do not have the FSINFO block)
or if we are in R/O mode.

As a bonus, we can also remove the '->sync_fs()' and '->write_super()' FAT
call-back function because they become unneeded.

330fe3c4c6 fat: mark superblock as dirty less often
Preparation for further changes.  It touches few functions in fatent.c and
prevents them from marking the superblock as dirty unnecessarily often.
Namely, instead of marking it as dirty in the internal tight loops - do it
only once at the end of the functions.  And instead of marking it as dirty
while holding the FAT table lock, do it outside the lock.

The reason for this patch is that marking the superblock as dirty will
soon become a little bit heavier operation, so it is cleaner to do this
only when it is necessary.

function which just sets the 's_dirt' flag to 1 so far.  I'll add more

020ac5b6be fat: introduce special inode for managing the FSINFO block
This is patchset makes fatfs stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method
for writing out the FSINFO block.

The final goal is to get rid of the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread.  This
kernel thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and calls
'->write_super()' for all mounted file-systems.  And the bad thing is that
this is done even if all the superblocks are clean.  Moreover, some
file-systems do not even need this end they do not register the
'->write_super()' method at all (e.g., btrfs).

So 'sync_supers()' most often just generates useless wake-ups and wastes
power.  I am trying to make all file-systems independent of
'->write_super()' and plan to remove 'sync_supers()' and '->write_super'
completely once there are no more users.

The '->write_supers()' method is mostly used by baroque file-systems like
hfs, udf, etc.  Modern file-systems like btrfs and xfs do not use it.
This justifies removing this stuff from VFS completely and make every FS
self-manage own superblock.

Tested with xfstests.

This patch:

Preparation for further changes.  It introduces a special inode
('fsinfo_inode') in FAT file-system which we'll later use for managing the
FSINFO block.  Note, this there is already one special inode ('fat_inode')
which is used for managing the FAT tables.

Introduce new 'MSDOS_FSINFO_INO' constant for this special inode.  It is
safe to do because FAT file-system does not store inode numbers on the
media but generates them run-time.

I've also cleaned up the comment to existing 'MSDOS_ROOT_INO' constant,
while on it.

This issues a cache flush request to device for such cases if barrier

storage on their completion.

a1d494495c pipe: return -ENOIOCTLCMD instead of -EINVAL on unknown ioctl command
As described in commit 07d106d0a3 ("vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error
handling"), drivers should return -ENOIOCTLCMD if they receive an ioctl
command which they don't understand.  Doing so will result in -ENOTTY
being returned to userspace, which matches the behaviour of the compat
layer if it fails to translate an ioctl command.

This patch fixes the pipe ioctl to return -ENOIOCTLCMD instead of -EINVAL
when passed an unknown ioctl command.

c67e5382fb init: disable sparse checking of the mount.o source files
The init/mount.o source files produce a number of sparse warnings of the
type:

warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
   expected char [noderef] <asn:1>*dev_name
   got char *name

This is due to the syscalls expecting some of the arguments to be user
pointers but they are being passed as kernel pointers.  This is harmless
but adds a lot of noise to a sparse build.

To limit the noise just disable the sparse checking in the relevant source
files, but still display a warning so that the user knows this has been
done.

Since the sparse checking has been disabled we can also remove the __user
__force casts that are scattered thru the source.

133fd9f5cd vsprintf: further optimize decimal conversion
Previous code was using optimizations which were developed to work well
even on narrow-word CPUs (by today's standards).  But Linux runs only on
32-bit and wider CPUs.  We can use that.

First: using 32x32->64 multiply and trivial 32-bit shift, we can correctly
divide by 10 much larger numbers, and thus we can print groups of 9 digits
instead of groups of 5 digits.

Next: there are two algorithms to print larger numbers.  One is generic:
divide by 1000000000 and repeatedly print groups of (up to) 9 digits.
It's conceptually simple, but requires an (unsigned long long) /
1000000000 division.

Second algorithm splits 64-bit unsigned long long into 16-bit chunks,
manipulates them cleverly and generates groups of 4 decimal digits.  It so
happens that it does NOT require long long division.

If long is > 32 bits, division of 64-bit values is relatively easy, and we
will use the first algorithm.  If long long is > 64 bits (strange
architecture with VERY large long long), second algorithm can't be used,
and we again use the first one.

Else (if long is 32 bits and long long is 64 bits) we use second one.

And third: there is a simple optimization which takes fast path not only
for zero as was done before, but for all one-digit numbers.

In all tested cases new code is faster than old one, in many cases by 30%,
in few cases by more than 50% (for example, on x86-32, conversion of
12345678).  Code growth is ~0 in 32-bit case and ~130 bytes in 64-bit
case.

This patch is based upon an original from Michal Nazarewicz.

725fe002d3 vsprintf: correctly handle width when '#' flag used in %#p format
The '%p' output of the kernel's vsprintf() uses spec.field_width to
determine how many digits to output based on 2 * sizeof(void*) so that all
digits of a pointer are shown.  ie.  a pointer will be output as
"001A2B3C" instead of "1A2B3C".  However, if the '#' flag is used in the
format (%#p), then the code doesn't take into account the width of the
'0x' prefix and will end up outputing "0x1A2B3C" instead of "0x001A2B3C".

This patch reworks the "pointer()" format hook to include 2 characters for
the '0x' prefix if the '#' flag is included.

1cefe28f95 um/kernel/trap.c: port OOM changes to handle_page_fault()
Commit d065bd810b ("mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk
transfer") and commit 37b23e0525 ("x86,mm: make pagefault killable")
introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler for making the page
fault handler retryable as well as killable.

These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial during OOM
killer invocation.

Port these changes to um.

4f1c28d241 security/keys/keyctl.c: suppress memory allocation failure warning
This allocation may be large.  The code is probing to see if it will
succeed and if not, it falls back to vmalloc().  We should suppress any
page-allocation failure messages when the fallback happens.

bcffb10f28 drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t93.c: don't let get_time() reset M41T93_FLAG_OF
If the rtc reports the time might be invalid due to oscillator failure,
M41T93_FLAG_OF flag must not be reset by get_time() as the read operation
doesn't make the time valid.

Without this patch, only the first get_time() reported an invalid time,
the second get_time() reported a valid time althought the reported time is
probably wrong due to oscillator failure.

Instead of resetting in get_time(), with this patch M41T93_FLAG_OF is
reset in set_time() when a valid time is to be written.

Currently there is no generic way to get the RTC battery status within an

the bit is set once a low voltage is detected.  It stays there until it is

fd0a37355c spinlock_debug: print kallsyms name for lock
When a spinlock warning is printed we usually get

 BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/111
  lock: 0xdff09f38, .magic: 00000000, .owner: /0, .owner_cpu: 0

but it's nicer to print the symbol for the lock if we have it so that we
can avoid 'grep dff09f38 /proc/kallsyms' to find out which lock it was.
Use kallsyms to print the symbol name so we get something a bit easier to
read

 BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/112
  lock: test_lock, .magic: 00000000, .owner: <none>/-1, .owner_cpu: 0

If the lock is not in kallsyms %ps will fall back to printing the address
directly.

4796dd200d vsprintf: fix %ps on non symbols when using kallsyms
Using %ps in a printk format will sometimes fail silently and print the
empty string if the address passed in does not match a symbol that
kallsyms knows about.  But using %pS will fall back to printing the full
address if kallsyms can't find the symbol.  Make %ps act the same as %pS
by falling back to printing the address.

While we're here also make %ps print the module that a symbol comes from
so that it matches what %pS already does.  Take this simple function for
example (in a module):

	static void test_printk(void)
	{
		int test;
		pr_info("with pS: %pS\n", &test);
		pr_info("with ps: %ps\n", &test);
	}

Before this patch:

 with pS: 0xdff7df44
 with ps:

After this patch:

 with pS: 0xdff7df44
 with ps: 0xdff7df44
