To be able to constify instances of struct bin_attribute it has to be
possible to add them to string attribute_group.
The current type of the bin_attrs member however is not compatible with
that.
Introduce a union that allows registration of both const and non-const
attributes to enable a piecewise transition.
As both union member types are compatible no logic needs to be adapted.
Technically it is now possible register a const struct
bin_attribute and receive it as mutable pointer in the callbacks.
This is a soundness issue.
But this same soundness issue already exists today in
sysfs_create_bin_file().
Also the struct definition and callback implementation are always
closely linked and are meant to be moved to const in lockstep.

To make it possible to put struct bin_attribute into read-only memory,
the sysfs core has to stop passing mutable pointers to the read() and
write() callbacks.
As there are numerous implementors of these callbacks throughout the
tree it's not possible to change all of them at once.
To enable a step-by-step transition, add new variants of the read() and
write() callbacks which differ only in the constness of the struct
bin_attribute argument.
As most binary attributes are defined through macros, extend these
macros to transparently handle both variants of callbacks to minimize
the churn during the transition.
As soon as all handlers are switch to the const variant, the non-const
one can be removed together with the transition machinery.

Several drivers need to dynamically calculate the size of an binary
attribute. Currently this is done by assigning attr->size from the
is_bin_visible() callback.
This has drawbacks:
* It is not documented.
* A single attribute can be instantiated multiple times, overwriting the
shared size field.
* It prevents the structure to be moved to read-only memory.
Introduce a new dedicated callback to calculate the size of the
attribute.

When drivers expose a bin_attribute in sysfs which is backed by a buffer
in memory, a common pattern is to set the @private and @size members in
struct bin_attribute to the buffer's location and size.
The ->read() callback then merely consists of a single memcpy() call.
It's not even necessary to perform bounds checks as these are already
handled by sysfs_kf_bin_read().
However each driver is so far providing its own ->read() implementation.
The pattern is sufficiently frequent to merit a public helper, so add
sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() as well as BIN_ATTR_SIMPLE_RO() and
BIN_ATTR_SIMPLE_ADMIN_RO() macros to ease declaration of such
bin_attributes and reduce LoC and .text section size.

Add a mechanism for named attribute_groups to hide their directory at
sysfs_update_group() time, or otherwise skip emitting the group
directory when the group is first registered. It piggybacks on
is_visible() in a similar manner as SYSFS_PREALLOC, i.e. special flags
in the upper bits of the returned mode. To use it, specify a symbol
prefix to DEFINE_SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE(), and then pass that same prefix
to SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE() when assigning the @is_visible() callback:
DEFINE_SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE($prefix)
struct attribute_group $prefix_group = {
.name = $name,
.is_visible = SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE($prefix),
};
SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE() expects a definition of $prefix_group_visible()
and $prefix_attr_visible(), where $prefix_group_visible() just returns
true / false and $prefix_attr_visible() behaves as normal.
The motivation for this capability is to centralize PCI device
authentication in the PCI core with a named sysfs group while keeping
that group hidden for devices and platforms that do not meet the
requirements. In a PCI topology, most devices will not support
authentication, a small subset will support just PCI CMA (Component
Measurement and Authentication), a smaller subset will support PCI CMA +
PCIe IDE (Link Integrity and Encryption), and only next generation
server hosts will start to include a platform TSM (TEE Security
Manager).
Without this capability the alternatives are:
* Check if all attributes are invisible and if so, hide the directory.
Beyond trouble getting this to work [1], this is an ABI change for
scenarios if userspace happens to depend on group visibility absent any
attributes. I.e. this new capability avoids regression since it does
not retroactively apply to existing cases.
* Publish an empty /sys/bus/pci/devices/$pdev/tsm/ directory for all PCI
devices (i.e. for the case when TSM platform support is present, but
device support is absent). Unfortunate that this will be a vestigial
empty directory in the vast majority of cases.
* Reintroduce usage of runtime calls to sysfs_{create,remove}_group()
in the PCI core. Bjorn has already indicated that he does not want to
see any growth of pci_sysfs_init() [2].
* Drop the named group and simulate a directory by prefixing all
TSM-related attributes with "tsm_". Unfortunate to not use the naming
capability of a sysfs group as intended.
In comparison, there is a small potential for regression if for some
reason an @is_visible() callback had dependencies on how many times it
was called. Additionally, it is no longer an error to update a group
that does not have its directory already present, and it is no longer a
WARN() to remove a group that was never visible.

As of now, seeking in sysfs files is handled by generic_file_llseek().
There are situations where one may want to customize seeking logic:
- Many sysfs entries are fixed files while generic_file_llseek() accepts
past-the-end positions. Not only being useless by itself, this
also means a bug in userspace code will trigger not at lseek(), but at
some later point making debugging harder.
- generic_file_llseek() relies on f_mapping->host to get the file size
which might not be correct for all sysfs entries.
See commit 636b21b501 ("PCI: Revoke mappings like devmem") as an example.
Implement llseek method to override this behavior at sysfs attribute
level. The method is optional, and if it is absent,
generic_file_llseek() is called to preserve backwards compatibility.

Defer invocation of the iomem_get_mapping() to the sysfs open callback
so that it can be executed as needed when the binary sysfs object has
been accessed.
To do that, convert the "mapping" member of the struct bin_attribute
from a pointer to the struct address_space into a function pointer with
a signature that requires the same return type, and then updates the
sysfs_kf_bin_open() to invoke provided function should the function
pointer be valid.
Also, convert every invocation of iomem_get_mapping() into a function
pointer assignment, therefore allowing for the iomem_get_mapping()
invocation to be deferred to when the sysfs open callback runs.
Thus, this change removes the need for the fs_initcalls to complete
before any other sub-system that uses the iomem_get_mapping() would be
able to invoke it safely without leading to a failure and an Oops
related to an invalid iomem_get_mapping() access.

We want to be able to revoke pci mmaps so that the same access rules
applies as for /dev/kmem. Revoke support for devmem was added in
3234ac664a ("/dev/mem: Revoke mappings when a driver claims the
region").
The simplest way to achieve this is by having the same filp->f_mapping
for all mappings, so that unmap_mapping_range can find them all, no
matter through which file they've been created. Since this must be set
at open time we need sysfs support for this.
Add an optional mapping parameter bin_attr, which is only consulted
when there's also an mmap callback, since without mmap support
allowing to adjust the ->f_mapping makes no sense.

around a new non-underscored function, which is a bit odd. The normal
naming convention is the other way around: the underscored function is
the wrappee, and the non-underscored function is the wrapper.
There's only one single user (well, two call-sites in that user) of the
more limited double underscore version of this function, so just remove
the oddly named wrapper entirely and just add the extra NULL argument to
the user.
I considered just doing that in the merge, but that tends to make
history really hard to read.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Slightly late as I had to rebase mid-week to insert a bug fix:
- A large series from Nick for 64-bit to further rework our exception
vectors, and rewrite portions of the syscall entry/exit and
interrupt return in C. The result is much easier to follow code
that is also faster in general.
- Cleanup of our ptrace code to split various parts out that had
become badly intertwined with #ifdefs over the years.
- Changes to our NUMA setup under the PowerVM hypervisor which should
hopefully avoid non-sensical topologies which can lead to warnings
from the workqueue code and other problems.
- MAINTAINERS updates to remove some of our old orphan entries and
update the status of others.
- Quite a few other small changes and fixes all over the map.

Add a helper to change the owner of sysfs objects.
This function will be used to correctly account for kobject ownership
changes, e.g. when moving network devices between network namespaces.
This mirrors how a kobject is added through driver core which in its guts is
done via kobject_add_internal() which in summary creates the main directory via
create_dir(), populates that directory with the groups associated with the
ktype of the kobject (if any) and populates the directory with the basic
attributes associated with the ktype of the kobject (if any). These are the
basic steps that are associated with adding a kobject in sysfs.
Any additional properties are added by the specific subsystem itself (not by
driver core) after it has registered the device. So for the example of network
devices, a network device will e.g. register a queue subdirectory under the
basic sysfs directory for the network device and than further subdirectories
within that queues subdirectory. But that is all specific to network devices
and they call the corresponding sysfs functions to do that directly when they
create those queue objects. So anything that a subsystem adds outside of what
driver core does must also be changed by it (That's already true for removal of
files it created outside of driver core.) and it's the same for ownership
changes.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

but this isn't the case, as is_visible is only called on struct attribute
only. This patch introduces a new is_bin_visible() function to implement
the same functionality for binary attributes, and updates documentation

Note that to keep functionality and code similar to that of normal

md/raid allows metadata management to be performed in user-space.
A various times, particularly on device failure, the metadata needs
to be updated before further writes can be permitted.
This means that the user-space program which updates metadata much
not block on writeout, and so must not allocate memory.
mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE) and pre-allocation can avoid all
memory allocation issues for user-memory, but that does not help
kernel memory.
Several kernel objects can be pre-allocated. e.g. files opened before
any writes to the array are permitted.
However some kernel allocation happens in places that cannot be
pre-allocated.
In particular, writes to sysfs files (to tell md that it can now
allow writes to the array) allocate a buffer using GFP_KERNEL.
This patch allows attributes to be marked as "PREALLOC". In that case
the maximal buffer is allocated when the file is opened, and then used
on each write instead of allocating a new buffer.
As the same buffer is now shared for all writes on the same file
description, the mutex is extended to cover full use of the buffer
including the copy_from_user().
The new __ATTR_PREALLOC() 'or's a new flag in to the 'mode', which is
