EXPERT Kconfig menu: fix broken EXPERT menu

2017-11-18T00:10:05+00:00

Clean up the EXPERT menu (yet again).

Move FHANDLE and CHECKPOINT_RESTORE into the primary EXPERT menu since
they already depend on EXPERT.

Move BPF_SYSCALL and USERFAULTFD out of the EXPERT Kconfig symbols menu
list since they do not depend on EXPERT and were breaking the continuity
of that menu list.

Move all of the KALLSYMS Kconfig symbols to the end of the EXPERT menu.
This separates the kernel services from the build options.

This patch depends on [PATCH] pci: move PCI_QUIRKS to the PCI bus menu
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/907).

initramfs: use time64_t timestamps

2017-11-18T00:10:04+00:00

The cpio format uses a 32-bit number to encode file timestamps, which
breaks initramfs support in 2038.  This reinterprets the timestamp as
unsigned, to give us another 68 years and avoids breaking until 2106.

pid: remove pidhash

2017-11-18T00:10:04+00:00

pidhash is no longer required as all the information can be looked up
from idr tree.  nr_hashed represented the number of pids that had been
hashed.  Since, nr_hashed and PIDNS_HASH_ADDING are no longer relevant,
it has been renamed to pid_allocated and PIDNS_ADDING respectively.

pid: replace pid bitmap implementation with IDR API

2017-11-18T00:10:03+00:00

Patch series "Replacing PID bitmap implementation with IDR API", v4.

This series replaces kernel bitmap implementation of PID allocation with
IDR API.  These patches are written to simplify the kernel by replacing
custom code with calls to generic code.

The following are the stats for pid and pid_namespace object files
before and after the replacement.  There is a noteworthy change between
the IDR and bitmap implementation.

Before
   text       data        bss        dec        hex    filename
   8447       3894         64      12405       3075    kernel/pid.o
After
   text       data        bss        dec        hex    filename
   3397        304          0       3701        e75    kernel/pid.o

Before
   text       data        bss        dec        hex    filename
   5692       1842        192       7726       1e2e    kernel/pid_namespace.o

   2854        216         16       3086        c0e    kernel/pid_namespace.o

The following are the stats for ps, pstree and calling readdir on /proc
for 10,000 processes.

ps:
        With IDR API    With bitmap
real    0m1.479s        0m2.319s
user    0m0.070s        0m0.060s
sys     0m0.289s        0m0.516s

pstree:
        With IDR API    With bitmap
real    0m1.024s        0m1.794s
user    0m0.348s        0m0.612s
sys     0m0.184s        0m0.264s

proc:
        With IDR API    With bitmap
real    0m0.059s        0m0.074s
user    0m0.000s        0m0.004s
sys     0m0.016s        0m0.016s

This patch (of 2):

Replace the current bitmap implementation for Process ID allocation.
Functions that are no longer required, for example, free_pidmap(),
alloc_pidmap(), etc.  are removed.  The rest of the functions are
modified to use the IDR API.  The change was made to make the PID
allocation less complex by replacing custom code with calls to generic
API.

init/version.c: include instead of

2017-11-18T00:10:02+00:00

init/version.c has nothing to do with modules, so remove the
.

Instead, include  for EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.

This cuts off a lot of unnecessary header parsing.

kmemcheck: remove annotations

2017-11-16T02:21:04+00:00

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.

As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.

KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow).  KASan is already upstream.

We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).

The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.

Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

This patch (of 4):

Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

mm: slabinfo: remove CONFIG_SLABINFO

2017-11-16T02:21:01+00:00

According to discussion with Christoph
(https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=150695909709711&w=2), it sounds like
it is pointless to keep CONFIG_SLABINFO around.

This patch removes the CONFIG_SLABINFO config option, but /proc/slabinfo
is still available.
