pci_device_id are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with pci_device_id provided by <linux/pci.h> work with

gcc 7.1 complains that the driver uses sprintf() and thus does not validate
the length of output buffers.
drivers/hwmon/applesmc.c: In function 'applesmc_show_fan_position':
drivers/hwmon/applesmc.c:82:21: warning:
'%d' directive writing between 1 and 5 bytes into a region of size 4
Fix the problem by using scnprintf() instead of sprintf() throughout the
driver. Also explicitly limit the number of supported fans to avoid actual
buffer overruns and thus invalid keys.

Fixes the following behavior: for connections that had no RTT sample
at the time of initializing congestion control, BBR was initializing
the pacing rate to a high nominal rate (based an a guess of RTT=1ms,
in case this is LAN traffic). Then BBR never adjusted the pacing rate
downward upon obtaining an actual RTT sample, if the connection never
filled the pipe (e.g. all sends were small app-limited writes()).
This fix adjusts the pacing rate upon obtaining the first RTT sample.

Fix a corner case noticed by Eric Dumazet, where BBR's setting
sk->sk_pacing_rate to 0 during initialization could theoretically
cause packets in the sending host to hang if there were packets "in
flight" in the pacing infrastructure at the time the BBR congestion
control state is initialized. This could occur if the pacing
infrastructure happened to race with bbr_init() in a way such that the
pacer read the 0 rather than the immediately following non-zero pacing
rate.

In bbr_set_pacing_rate(), which decides whether to cut the pacing
rate, there was some code that considered exiting STARTUP to be
equivalent to the notion of filling the pipe (i.e.,
bbr_full_bw_reached()). Specifically, as the code was structured,
exiting STARTUP and going into PROBE_RTT could cause us to cut the
pacing rate down to something silly and low, based on whatever
bandwidth samples we've had so far, when it's possible that all of
them have been small app-limited bandwidth samples that are not
representative of the bandwidth available in the path. (The code was
correct at the time it was written, but the state machine changed
without this spot being adjusted correspondingly.)

When there is an established connection in direction A->B, it is
possible to receive a packet on port B which then executes
ct(commit,force) without first performing ct() - ie, a lookup.
In this case, we would expect that this packet can delete the existing
entry so that we can commit a connection with direction B->A. However,
currently we only perform a check in skb_nfct_cached() for whether
OVS_CS_F_TRACKED is set and OVS_CS_F_INVALID is not set, ie that a
lookup previously occurred. In the above scenario, a lookup has not
occurred but we should still be able to statelessly look up the
existing entry and potentially delete the entry if it is in the
opposite direction.
This patch extends the check to also hint that if the action has the
force flag set, then we will lookup the existing entry so that the
force check at the end of skb_nfct_cached has the ability to delete
the connection.

Some time ago David Woodhouse reported skb_under_panic
when we try to push ethernet header to fragmented ipv6 skbs.
It was fixed for ipv6 by Florian Westphal in
commit 1d325d217c7f ("ipv6: ip6_fragment: fix headroom tests and skb leak")
However similar problem still exist in ipv4.
It does not trigger skb_under_panic due paranoid check
in ip_finish_output2, however according to Alexey Kuznetsov
current state is abnormal and ip_fragment should be fixed too.

Computing the alignment manually for going from priv to pub is probably
not such a good idea, and in general the assumption that going from priv
to pub is possible trivially could change, so rather than relying on
that, we change things to just store a pointer to pub. This was sugested
by DaveM in [1].

IDM operations are usually one time ops and should be done in

Pull documentation format standardization from Jonathan Corbet:
"This series converts a number of top-level documents to the RST format
without incorporating them into the Sphinx tree. The hope is to bring
some uniformity to kernel documentation and, perhaps more importantly,
have our existing docs serve as an example of the desired formatting
for those that will be added later.
Mauro has gone through and fixed up a lot of top-level documentation
files to make them conform to the RST format, but without moving or
renaming them in any way. This will help when we incorporate the ones
we want to keep into the Sphinx doctree, but the real purpose is to
bring a bit of uniformity to our documentation and let the top-level
docs serve as examples for those writing new ones"

Unfortunately, on some models of some architectures getting a fully
seeded CRNG is extremely difficult, and so this can result in dmesg
getting spammed for a surprisingly long time. This is really bad from
a security perspective, and so architecture maintainers really need to
do what they can to get the CRNG seeded sooner after the system is
booted. However, users can't do anything actionble to address this,
and spamming the kernel messages log will only just annoy people.
For developers who want to work on improving this situation,
CONFIG_WARN_UNSEEDED_RANDOM has been renamed to
CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM. By default the kernel will always
print the first use of unseeded randomness. This way, hopefully the
security obsessed will be happy that there is _some_ indication when
the kernel boots there may be a potential issue with that architecture
or subarchitecture. To see all uses of unseeded randomness,
developers can enable CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM.

Using strscpy was wrong because FORTIFY_SOURCE is passing the maximum
possible size of the outermost object, but strscpy defines the count
parameter as the exact buffer size, so this could copy past the end of
the source. This would still be wrong with the planned usage of
__builtin_object_size(p, 1) for intra-object overflow checks since it's
the maximum possible size of the specified object with no guarantee of
it being that large.
Reuse of the fortified functions like this currently makes the runtime
error reporting less precise but that can be improved later on.

If we reach the limit of modprobe_limit threads running the next
request_module() call will fail. The original reason for adding a kill
was to do away with possible issues with in old circumstances which would
create a recursive series of request_module() calls.
We can do better than just be super aggressive and reject calls once we've
reached the limit by simply making pending callers wait until the
threshold has been reduced, and then throttling them in, one by one.
This throttling enables requests over the kmod concurrent limit to be
processed once a pending request completes. Only the first item queued up
to wait is woken up. The assumption here is once a task is woken it will
have no other option to also kick the queue to check if there are more
pending tasks -- regardless of whether or not it was successful.
By throttling and processing only max kmod concurrent tasks we ensure we
avoid unexpected fatal request_module() calls, and we keep memory
consumption on module loading to a minimum.
With x86_64 qemu, with 4 cores, 4 GiB of RAM it takes the following run
time to run both tests:
time ./kmod.sh -t 0008
real 0m16.366s

This adds a new stress test driver for kmod: the kernel module loader.
The new stress test driver, test_kmod, is only enabled as a module right
now. It should be possible to load this as built-in and load tests
early (refer to the force_init_test module parameter), however since a
lot of test can get a system out of memory fast we leave this disabled
for now.
Using a system with 1024 MiB of RAM can *easily* get your kernel OOM
fast with this test driver.
The test_kmod driver exposes API knobs for us to fine tune simple
request_module() and get_fs_type() calls. Since these API calls only
allow each one parameter a test driver for these is rather simple.
Other factors that can help out test driver though are the number of
calls we issue and knowing current limitations of each. This exposes
configuration as much as possible through userspace to be able to build
tests directly from userspace.
Since it allows multiple misc devices its will eventually (once we add a
knob to let us create new devices at will) also be possible to perform
more tests in parallel, provided you have enough memory.
We only enable tests we know work as of right now.

# tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008
# tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0009
To be sure to run them as intended please unload both of the modules:
o test_module
o xfs
And ensure they are not loaded on your system prior to testing them. If
you use these paritions for your rootfs you can change the default test
driver used for get_fs_type() by exporting it into your environment. For
example of other test defaults you can override refer to kmod.sh
allow_user_defaults().
Behind the scenes this is how we fine tune at a test case prior to
hitting a trigger to run it:
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_case
echo -n "ext4" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_fs
echo -n "80" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
Finally to trigger:
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/trigger_config
The kmod.sh script uses the above constructs to build different test cases.
A bit of interpretation of the current failures follows, first two
premises:
a) When request_module() is used userspace figures out an optimized
version of module order for us. Once it finds the modules it needs, as
per depmod symbol dep map, it will finit_module() the respective
modules which are needed for the original request_module() request.
b) We have an optimization in place whereby if a kernel uses
request_module() on a module already loaded we never bother userspace
as the module already is loaded. This is all handled by kernel/kmod.c.
A few things to consider to help identify root causes of issues:
0) kmod 19 has a broken heuristic for modules being assumed to be
built-in to your kernel and will return 0 even though request_module()
failed. Upgrade to a newer version of kmod.
1) A get_fs_type() call for "xfs" will request_module() for "fs-xfs",
not for "xfs". The optimization in kernel described in b) fails to
catch if we have a lot of consecutive get_fs_type() calls. The reason
is the optimization in place does not look for aliases. This means two
consecutive get_fs_type() calls will bump kmod_concurrent, whereas
request_module() will not.
This one explanation why test case 0009 fails at least once for
get_fs_type().
2) If a module fails to load --- for whatever reason (kmod_concurrent
limit reached, file not yet present due to rootfs switch, out of
memory) we have a period of time during which module request for the
same name either with request_module() or get_fs_type() will *also*
fail to load even if the file for the module is ready.
This explains why *multiple* NULLs are possible on test 0009.
3) finit_module() consumes quite a bit of memory.
4) Filesystems typically also have more dependent modules than other
modules, its important to note though that even though a get_fs_type()
call does not incur additional kmod_concurrent bumps, since userspace
loads dependencies it finds it needs via finit_module_fd(), it *will*
take much more memory to load a module with a lot of dependencies.
Because of 3) and 4) we will easily run into out of memory failures with
certain tests. For instance test 0006 fails on qemu with 1024 MiB of RAM.
It panics a box after reaping all userspace processes and still not
having enough memory to reap.

As suggested by Jessica, I've been actively working on kmod, so might as
well reflect its maintained status.
Changes are expected to go through akpm's tree.

The arch uses a verbatim copy of the asm-generic version and does not
add any own implementations to the header, so use asm-generic/fb.h
instead of duplicating code.

fail-nth interface is only created in /proc/self/task/<current-tid>/.
This change also adds it in /proc/<pid>/.
This makes shell based tool a bit simpler.
$ bash -c "builtin echo 100 > /proc/self/fail-nth && exec ls /"

The fail-nth file is created with 0666 and the access is permitted if
and only if the task is current.
This file is owned by the currnet user. So we can create it with 0644
and allow the owner to write it. This enables to watch the status of
task->fail_nth from another processes.

The read interface for fail-nth looks a bit odd. Read from this file
returns "NYYYY..." or "YYYYY..." (this makes me surprise when cat this
file). Because there is no EOF condition. The first character
indicates current->fail_nth is zero or not, and then current->fail_nth
is reset to zero.
Just returning task->fail_nth value is more natural to understand.
