[ Upstream commit 019baf635eb6ffe8d6c1343f81788f02a7e0ed98 ]

First of all, in order to build with clang at all, one must first apply
Valentin Obst's build fix for LLVM [1]. Once that is done, then when
building with clang, via:

    make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

...the following error occurs:

   clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files

This is because clang, unlike gcc, won't accept invocations of this
form:

    clang file1.c header2.h

While trying to fix this, I noticed that:

a) selftests/lib.mk already avoids the problem, and

b) The binderfs Makefile indavertently bypasses the selftests/lib.mk
build system, and quitely uses Make's implicit build rules for .c files
instead.

The Makefile attempts to set up both a dependency and a source file,
neither of which was needed, because lib.mk is able to automatically
handle both. This line:

    binderfs_test: binderfs_test.c

...causes Make's implicit rules to run, which builds binderfs_test
without ever looking at lib.mk.

Fix this by simply deleting the "binderfs_test:" Makefile target and
letting lib.mk handle it instead.

<title>kselftest: introduce new epoll test case</title>

Patch series "fs/epoll: restore user-visible behavior upon event ready".

This series tries to address a change in user visible behavior, reported
in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208943.

Epoll does not report an event to all the threads running epoll_wait()
on the same epoll descriptor. Unsurprisingly, this was bisected back to
339ddb53d373 (fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll), which
has had various problems in the past, beyond only nested epoll usage.

This patch (of 2):

This incorporates the testcase originally reported in:

     https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208943

Which ensures an event is reported to all threads blocked on the same
epoll descriptor, otherwise only a single thread will receive the wakeup
once the event become ready.

Adjust to use only the harness API so that the harness API can switch

<title>kselftests: introduce new epoll60 testcase for catching lost wakeups</title>
<updated>2020-05-08T02:27:21+00:00</updated>

<id>474328c06e3ee75bb6b92826fec90fdc8ef3c573</id>
<content type='text'>
This test case catches lost wake up introduced by commit 339ddb53d373
("fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll")

The test is simple: we have 10 threads and 10 event fds.  Each thread
can harvest only 1 event.  1 producer fires all 10 events at once and
waits that all 10 events will be observed by 10 threads.

In case of lost wakeup epoll_wait() will timeout and 0 will be returned.

Test case catches two sort of problems: forgotten wakeup on event, which
hits the -&gt;ovflist list, this problem was fixed by:

  5a2513239750 ("eventpoll: fix missing wakeup for ovflist in ep_poll_callback")

the other problem is when several sequential events hit the same waiting
thread, thus other waiters get no wakeups.  Problem is fixed in the
following patch.

waits that all 10 events will be observed by 10 threads.

In case of lost wakeup epoll_wait() will timeout and 0 will be returned.

Test case catches two sort of problems: forgotten wakeup on event, which
hits the -&gt;ovflist list, this problem was fixed by:

  5a2513239750 ("eventpoll: fix missing wakeup for ovflist in ep_poll_callback")

the other problem is when several sequential events hit the same waiting
thread, thus other waiters get no wakeups.  Problem is fixed in the
following patch.

This testcase repeats epollbug.c from the bug:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205933

What it tests?  It tests the race between epoll_ctl() and epoll_wait().
New event mask passed to epoll_ctl() triggers wake up, which can be missed
because of the bug described in the link.  Reproduction is 100%, so easy
to fix.  Kudos, Max, for wonderful test case.
