partitions/ldm: Replace uuid_copy() with import_uuid() where it makes sense

2020-06-18T15:17:54+00:00

There is a specific API to treat raw data as UUID, i.e. import_uuid().
Use it instead of uuid_copy() with explicit casting.

block: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array

2020-06-16T04:08:32+00:00

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

block: always use a percpu variable for disk stats

2020-05-27T11:21:23+00:00

percpu variables have a perfectly fine working stub implementation
for UP kernels, so use that.

s390/dasd: remove ioctl_by_bdev calls

2020-05-21T14:22:20+00:00

The IBM partition parser requires device type specific information only
available to the DASD driver to correctly register partitions. The
current approach of using ioctl_by_bdev with a fake user space pointer
is discouraged.

Fix this by replacing IOCTL calls with direct in-kernel function calls.

block: fix use-after-free on cached last_lookup partition

2020-05-13T02:31:39+00:00

delete_partition() clears the cached last_lookup partition. However the
.last_lookup cache may be overwritten by one IO path after it is cleared
from delete_partition(). Then another IO path may use the cached deleting
partition after hd_struct_free() is called, then use-after-free is triggered
on the cached partition.

Fixes the issue by the following approach:

1) always get the partition's refcount via hd_struct_try_get() before
setting .last_lookup

2) move clearing .last_lookup from delete_partition() to hd_struct_free()
which is the release handle of the partition's percpu-refcount, so that no
IO path can cache deleteing partition via .last_lookup.

It is one candidate approach of Yufen's patch[1] which adds overhead
in fast path by indirect lookup which may introduce one extra cacheline
in IO path. Also this patch relies on percpu-refcount's protection, and
it is easier to understand and verify.
