2016-09-20Documentation/SubmitChecklist: update kernel-doc taskMauro Carvalho Chehab
Task 11 (kernel-doc) still mentions usage of make manpages, but this won't work if the API is documented via Sphinx. So, update it to use either htmldocs or pdfdocs, with are the documentation targets that work for all. While here, add ReST reference to the kernel documentation book.

2016-09-20Documentation/HOWTO: improve some markups to make it visually betterMauro Carvalho Chehab
Do a series of minor improvements at the ReST output format: - Instead of using the quote blocks (::) for quotes, use italics. That looks nicer on epub (and html) output, as no scroll bar will be added. Also, it will adjust line breaks on the text automatically. - Add a missing reference to SubmittingPatches.rst and use **foo** instead of _foo_. - use bold for "The Perfect Patch" by removing a newline.

As we want this document to be parsed by Sphinx, instead of using "foo", use ``foo`` for the names that are literal, because it is an usual typographic convention to use monospaced fonts for functions and language commands on documents, and we're following such convention on the other ReST books.

2016-09-20Documentation/Changes: add minimal requirements for documentation buildMauro Carvalho Chehab
As discussed at linux-doc ML, the best is to keep all documents backward compatible with Sphinx version 1.2, as it is the latest version found on some distros like Debian. All books currently support it. Please notice that, while it mentions the eventual need of XeLaTex and texlive to build pdf files, this is not a minimal requirement, as one could just be interested on building html documents. Also, identifying the minimal requirements for texlive packages is not trivial, as each distribution seems to use different criteria on grouping LaTex functionalities.

2016-09-20fix fault_in_multipages_...() on architectures with no-op access_ok()Al Viro
Switching iov_iter fault-in to multipages variants has exposed an old bug in underlying fault_in_multipages_...(); they break if the range passed to them wraps around. Normally access_ok() done by callers will prevent such (and it's a guaranteed EFAULT - ERR_PTR() values fall into such a range and they should not point to any valid objects). However, on architectures where userland and kernel live in different MMU contexts (e.g. s390) access_ok() is a no-op and on those a range with a wraparound can reach fault_in_multipages_...(). Since any wraparound means EFAULT there, the fix is trivial - turn those while (uaddr <= end) ... into if (unlikely(uaddr > end)) return -EFAULT; do ... while (uaddr <= end); Reported-by: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com> Tested-by: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.5+ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We've checked for errors from setup_irq_percpu since commit f95ac8558b88 ("CLOCKSOURCE: mips-gic: Add missing error returns checks") but didn't print an error message in the failure case.

2016-09-20irqchip/mips-gic: Use for_each_set_bit to iterate over local IRQsPaul Burton
The MIPS GIC driver has previously iterated over bits set in a bitmap representing pending local IRQs by calling find_first_bit, clearing that bit then calling find_first_bit again until all bits are clear. If multiple interrupts are pending then this is wasteful, as find_first_bit will have to loop over the whole bitmap from the start. Use the for_each_set_bit macro which performs exactly what we need here instead. It will use find_next_bit and thus only scan over the relevant part of the bitmap, and it makes the intent of the code clearer. This makes the same change for local interrupts that commit cae750bae4e4 ("irqchip: mips-gic: Use for_each_set_bit to iterate over IRQs") made for shared interrupts.

2016-09-20irqchip/mips-gic: Fix local interruptsPaul Burton
Since the device hierarchy domain was added by commit c98c1822ee13 ("irqchip/mips-gic: Add device hierarchy domain"), GIC local interrupts have been broken. Users attempting to setup a per-cpu local IRQ, for example the GIC timer clock events code in drivers/clocksource/mips-gic-timer.c, the setup_percpu_irq function would refuse with -EINVAL because the GIC irqchip driver never called irq_set_percpu_devid so the IRQ_PER_CPU_DEVID flag was never set for the IRQ. This happens because irq_set_percpu_devid was being called from the gic_irq_domain_map function which is no longer called. Doing only that runs into further problems because gic_dev_domain_alloc set the struct irq_chip for all interrupts, local or shared, to gic_level_irq_controller despite that only being suitable for shared interrupts. The typical outcome of this is that gic_level_irq_controller callback functions are called for local interrupts, and then hwirq number calculations overflow & the driver ends up attempting to access some invalid register with an address calculated from an invalid hwirq number. Best case scenario is that this then leads to a bus error. This is fixed by abstracting the setup of the hwirq & chip to a new function gic_setup_dev_chip which is used by both the root GIC IRQ domain & the device domain. Finally, decoding local interrupts failed because gic_dev_domain_alloc only called irq_domain_alloc_irqs_parent for shared interrupts. Local ones were therefore never associated with hwirqs in the root GIC IRQ domain and the virq in gic_handle_local_int would always be 0. This is fixed by calling irq_domain_alloc_irqs_parent unconditionally & having gic_irq_domain_alloc handle both local & shared interrupts, which is easy due to the aforementioned abstraction of chip setup into gic_setup_dev_chip. This fixes use of the MIPS GIC timer for clock events, which has been broken since c98c1822ee13 ("irqchip/mips-gic: Add device hierarchy domain") but hadn't been noticed due to a silent fallback to the MIPS coprocessor 0 count/compare clock events device.

2016-09-20fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext dataJiri Olsa
We hit hardened usercopy feature check for kernel text access by reading kcore file: usercopy: kernel memory exposure attempt detected from ffffffff8179a01f (<kernel text>) (4065 bytes) kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:75! Bypassing this check for kcore by adding bounce buffer for ktext data.

2016-09-20fs/proc/kcore.c: Make bounce buffer global for readJiri Olsa
Next patch adds bounce buffer for ktext area, so it's convenient to have single bounce buffer for both vmalloc/module and ktext cases.

2016-09-20perf symbols: Do not open device filesJiri Olsa
The dso__read_binary_type_filename gets the dso's file name to open. We need to check it for regular file before trying to open it, otherwise we might get stuck with device file.
