 "A small set of updates for core code:

   - Prevent tracing in functions which are called from trace patching
     via stop_machine() to prevent executing half patched function trace
     entries.

   - Remove old GCC workarounds

   - Remove pointless includes of notifier.h"

The conversion of the hotplug notifiers to a state machine left the
notifier.h includes around in some places. Remove them.

 "A better IDA API:

lib/fonts: convert comments to utf-8

2018-08-24T01:48:43+00:00

The font files contain bit masks for characters in the cp437 character
set, and comments showing what character this is supposed to be.

This only makes sense when the terminal used to view the files is set to
the same codepage, but all other files in the kernel now use utf-8
encoding.

This changes those comments to utf-8 as well, for consistency.

lib/rhashtable: guarantee initial hashtable allocation

2018-08-22T17:52:52+00:00

rhashtable_init() may fail due to -ENOMEM, thus making the entire api
unusable.  This patch removes this scenario, however unlikely.  In order
to guarantee memory allocation, this patch always ends up doing
GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOFAIL for both the tbl as well as
alloc_bucket_spinlocks().

Upon the first table allocation failure, we shrink the size to the
smallest value that makes sense and retry with __GFP_NOFAIL semantics.
With the defaults, this means that from 64 buckets, we retry with only 4.
Any later issues regarding performance due to collisions or larger table
resizing (when more memory becomes available) is the least of our
problems.

lib/rhashtable: simplify bucket_table_alloc()

2018-08-22T17:52:52+00:00

As of ce91f6ee5b3b ("mm: kvmalloc does not fallback to vmalloc for
incompatible gfp flags") we can simplify the caller and trust kvzalloc()
to just do the right thing.  For the case of the GFP_ATOMIC context, we
can drop the __GFP_NORETRY flag for obvious reasons, and for the
__GFP_NOWARN case, however, it is changed such that the caller passes the
flag instead of making bucket_table_alloc() handle it.

This slightly changes the gfp flags passed on to nested_table_alloc() as
it will now also use GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN.  However, I consider this
a positive consequence as for the same reasons we want nowarn semantics in
bucket_table_alloc().

lib/Kconfig: remove 'default n' for tests

2018-08-22T17:52:48+00:00

It seems contributors follow the style of Kconfig entries where explicit
'default n' is present.  The default 'default' is 'n' already, thus, drop
these lines from Kconfig to make it more clear.

lib: add crc64 calculation routines

2018-08-22T17:52:48+00:00

Patch series "add crc64 calculation as kernel library", v5.

This patchset adds basic implementation of crc64 calculation as a Linux
kernel library.  Since bcache already does crc64 by itself, this patchset
also modifies bcache code to use the new crc64 library routine.

Currently bcache is the only user of crc64 calculation, another potential
user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel.  Therefore
it makes sense to make crc64 calculation to be a public library.

bcache uses crc64 as storage checksum, if a change of crc lib routines
results an inconsistent result, the unmatched checksum may make bcache
'think' the on-disk is corrupted, such a change should be avoided or
detected as early as possible.  Therefore a patch is being prepared which
adds a crc test framework, to check consistency of different calculations.

This patch (of 2):

Add the re-write crc64 calculation routines for Linux kernel.  The CRC64
polynomical arithmetic follows ECMA-182 specification, inspired by CRC
paper of Dr.  Ross N.  Williams (see
http://www.ross.net/crc/download/crc_v3.txt) and other public domain
implementations.

All the changes work in this way,
- When Linux kernel is built, host program lib/gen_crc64table.c will be
  compiled to lib/gen_crc64table and executed.
- The output of gen_crc64table execution is an array called as lookup
  table (a.k.a POLY 0x42f0e1eba9ea369) which contain 256 64-bit long
  numbers, this table is dumped into header file lib/crc64table.h.
- Then the header file is included by lib/crc64.c for normal 64bit crc
  calculation.
- Function declaration of the crc64 calculation routines is placed in
  include/linux/crc64.h

Currently bcache is the only user of crc64_be(), another potential user is
bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel.  Therefore it makes
sense to move crc64 calculation into lib/crc64.c as public code.
