2017-03-09selftests/powerpc: Replace stxvx and lxvx with stxvd2x/lxvd2xCyril Bur
On POWER8 (ISA 2.07) lxvx and stxvx are defined to be extended mnemonics of lxvd2x and stxvd2x. For POWER9 (ISA 3.0) the HW architects in their infinite wisdom made lxvx and stxvx instructions in their own right. POWER9 aware GCC will use the POWER9 instruction for lxvx and stxvx causing these selftests to fail on POWER8. Further compounding the issue, because of the way -mvsx works it will cause the power9 instructions to be used regardless of -mcpu=power8 to GCC or -mpower8 to AS. The safest way to address the problem for now is to not use the extended mnemonic. We don't care how the CPU loads the values from memory since the tests only performs register comparisons, so using stdvd2x/lxvd2x does not impact the test.

Looking into the cause I noticed that a recent update to the function run_command (used for running all shell commands, including "make mrproper") changed the internal loop to use the function wait_for_input. The wait_for_input function uses select to look at two file descriptors. One is the file descriptor of the command it is running, the other is STDIN. The STDIN check was not checking the return status of the sysread call, and was also just writing a lot of data into syswrite without regard to the size of the data read. Changing the code to check the return status of sysread, and also to still process the passed in descriptor data without looping back to the select fixed Greg's problem. While looking at this code I also realized that the loop did not honor the timeout if STDIN always had input (or for some reason return error). this could prevent wait_for_input to timeout on the file descriptor it is suppose to be waiting for. That is fixed too" * tag 'ktest-v4.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest: ktest: Make sure wait_for_input does honor the timeout ktest: Fix while loop in wait_for_input
2017-03-08ktest: Make sure wait_for_input does honor the timeoutSteven Rostedt (VMware)
The function wait_for_input takes in a timeout, and even has a default timeout. But if for some reason the STDIN descriptor keeps sending in data, the function will never time out. The timout is to wait for the data from the passed in file descriptor, not for STDIN. Adding a test in the case where there's no data from the passed in file descriptor that checks to see if the timeout passed, will ensure that it will timeout properly even if there's input in STDIN.

2017-03-08ktest: Fix while loop in wait_for_inputSteven Rostedt (VMware)
The run_command function was changed to use the wait_for_input function to allow having a timeout if the command to run takes too much time. There was a bug in the wait_for_input where it could end up going into an infinite loop. There's two issues here. One is that the return value of the sysread wasn't used for the write (to write a proper size), and that it should continue processing the passed in file descriptor too even if there was input. There was no check for error, if for some reason STDIN returned an error, the function would go into an infinite loop and never exit.

2017-03-07ida: Free correct IDA bitmapMatthew Wilcox
There's a relatively rare race where we look at the per-cpu preallocated IDA bitmap, see it's NULL, allocate a new one, and atomically update it. If the kmalloc() happened to sleep and we were rescheduled to a different CPU, or an interrupt came in at the exact right time, another task might have successfully allocated a bitmap and already deposited it. I forgot what the semantics of cmpxchg() were and ended up freeing the wrong bitmap leading to KASAN reporting a use-after-free. Dmitry found the bug with syzkaller & wrote the patch.

2017-03-07radix tree test suite: Fix build with --as-neededMichael Ellerman
Currently the radix tree test suite doesn't build with toolchains that use --as-needed by default, for example Ubuntu's: cc -I. -I../../include -g -O2 -Wall -D_LGPL_SOURCE -fsanitize=address -lpthread -lurcu main.o ... -o main /usr/bin/ld: regression1.o: undefined reference to symbol 'pthread_join@@GLIBC_2.17' /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status This is caused by the custom makefile rules placing LDFLAGS before the .o files that need the libraries. We could fix it by using --no-as-needed, or rewriting the custom rules. But we can also just drop the custom rules and move the libraries to LDLIBS, and then the default rules work correctly - with the one caveat that we need to add -fsanitize=address to LDFLAGS because that must be passed to the linker as well as the compiler.

2017-03-07perf c2c: Fix display bug when using pipeNamhyung Kim
Currently 'perf c2c report' determines display mode using the --stdio option, but it could be a problem if stdout is not a tty since setup_browser falls back to stdio in this case. But perf c2c didn't know this and tried to use TUI browser anyway. It should check "use_browser" variable instead. For example, the following command showed nothing and broke terminal setting. Now it's fixed.. $ perf c2c report | head ================================================= Trace Event Information ================================================= Total records : 136 Locked Load/Store Operations : 6 Load Operations : 62 Loads - uncacheable : 0 Loads - IO : 1 Loads - Miss : 7 Loads - no mapping : 2 Committer notes: When trying it without a proper perf.data file it results in a stuck terminal, just as Namhyung reported above: [acme@jouet ~]$ perf c2c report | head WARNING: no sample cpu value[acme@jouet ~]$ One has to kill it from some other xterm.

2017-03-07objtool: Fix another GCC jump table detection issueJosh Poimboeuf
Arnd Bergmann reported a (false positive) objtool warning: drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.o: warning: objtool: rxe_responder()+0xfe: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer The issue is in find_switch_table(). It tries to find a switch statement's jump table by walking backwards from an indirect jump instruction, looking for a relocation to the .rodata section. In this case it stopped walking prematurely: the first .rodata relocation it encountered was for a variable (resp_state_name) instead of a jump table, so it just assumed there wasn't a jump table. The fix is to ignore any .rodata relocation which refers to an ELF object symbol. This works because the jump tables are anonymous and have no symbols associated with them.

A namespace is an object that other operating environment and platform firmware needs to comprehend for capabilities like booting from an nvdimm.

2017-03-03tools build: Use the same CC for feature detection and actual buildArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When build with: 'make CC=clang' we were not using that CC to do feature detection, which resulted in features being detected with gcc and then the actual tools being built with clang. Most of the time these compilers are compatible enough, so no problem was being noticed. As soon as a system with an old enough clang, one that hasn't the cpuid.h header is used, and a gcc with it, the "get_cpuid" feature will be found available but then code that will use can't be compiled. Noticed with this combination: / $ gcc --version | head -1 gcc (Alpine 6.3.0) 6.3.0 / $ clang --version | head -1 clang version 3.8.1 (tags/RELEASE_381/final) / $ cat /etc/alpine-release 3.5.0 / $ Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-60q18nvlvgpyfv7e2qqgx4ou@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
