Now that the SPDX tag is in all android files, that identifies the
license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text
wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the android driver files with the correct SPDX license identifier
based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a
legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler
plate text.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

vfs_llseek will check whether the file mode has
FMODE_LSEEK, no return failure. But ashmem can be
lseek, so add FMODE_LSEEK to ashmem file.
Comment From Greg Hackmann:
ashmem_llseek() passes the llseek() call through to the backing
shmem file. 91360b02ab48 ("ashmem: use vfs_llseek()") changed
this from directly calling the file's llseek() op into a VFS
layer call. This also adds a check for the FMODE_LSEEK bit, so
without that bit ashmem_llseek() now always fails with -ESPIPE.
Fixes: 91360b02ab48 ("ashmem: use vfs_llseek()")

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).
There's a background article at LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/
The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a
fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
virtual memory range.
This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also
allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
below).
This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
if a user-space application calls:
mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);
or
mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);
(note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
and unwritable.
So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security
advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.
We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.
There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
pull request.
Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
(CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
(like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's
any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
flip the default"

page_range_{subsumes/subsumed_by/in}_range to static inline function
Convert macros page_range_{subsumes/subsumed_by/in}_range to static
inline function as static inline functions are preferred over macros.
The change can be done as the arguments at all call sites have the same

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
drivers/staging/android/Kconfig:config ASHMEM
drivers/staging/android/Kconfig: bool "Enable the Anonymous Shared Memory Subsystem"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.
We replace module.h with init.h and export.h ; the latter since this
file uses the global THIS_MODULE.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.

With well over 200+ users of this api, there are a mere 12 users that
actually checked the return value of this function. And all of them
really didn't do anything with that information as the system or module
was shutting down no matter what.
So stop pretending like it matters, and just return void from
misc_deregister(). If something goes wrong in the call, you will get a
WARNING splat in the syslog so you know how to fix up your driver.
Other than that, there's nothing that can go wrong.

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask. This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages. The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.
Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.
Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does. Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.
Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions. To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.
For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim. It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.
This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.
Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

This function needs to be exported so it can be used by the NFSD module
when responding to the new ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE operations in NFS
v4.2. Christoph Hellwig suggested renaming the function to stay
consistent with how other vfs functions are named.

Avoid holding ashmem_mutex across code that can page fault. Page faults
grab the mmap_sem for the process, which are also held by mmap calls
prior to calling ashmem_mmap, which locks ashmem_mutex. The reversed
order of locking between the two can deadlock.
The calls that can page fault are read() and the ASHMEM_SET_NAME and
ASHMEM_GET_NAME ioctls. Move the code that accesses userspace pages
outside the ashmem_mutex.

Hopefully this isn't too late for 3.12.
In commit 7dc19d5aff (convert shrinkers to new count/scan API)
the return value to PURGE_ALL_CACHES was dropped, causing -EPERM
to always be returned.
This patch re-adds the ret assignment, setting it to the the
ashmem_shrink_count(), which is the lru_count.
(Sorry this was missed in the review!)

I am sorry if I have interpreted anything incorrectly here. This is my
second day really attempting to understand the Ashmem system.
I can not finish documenting this class at this stage - There is still
more that I have to learn. For now, however, it will have to do.

I am beginning to understand the core concepts at play here.
I am nowhere near finished with this class - However, it is better if
I commit what I have documented so far tonight - That way, if I mess
up tomorrow morning, I can just roll back to here.
Sorry if this clutters things up. In the end, once *everything* is
documented, it will make understanding the Android staging driver
easier to understand as a programmer - Hopefully for both new developers
and current ones.

Convert the driver shrinkers to the new API. Most changes are compile
tested only because I either don't have the hardware or it's staging
stuff.
FWIW, the md and android code is pretty good, but the rest of it makes me
want to claw my eyes out. The amount of broken code I just encountered is
mind boggling. I've added comments explaining what is broken, but I fear
that some of the code would be best dealt with by being dragged behind the
bike shed, burying in mud up to it's neck and then run over repeatedly
with a blunt lawn mower.
Special mention goes to the zcache/zcache2 drivers. They can't co-exist
in the build at the same time, they are under different menu options in
menuconfig, they only show up when you've got the right set of mm
subsystem options configured and so even compile testing is an exercise in
pulling teeth. And that doesn't even take into account the horrible,
broken code...

Android's shared memory subsystem, Ashmem, does not support calls from a
32bit userspace in a 64 bit kernel. This patch adds support for syscalls
coming from a 32bit userspace in a 64bit kernel.
The patch has been successfully tested on ARMv8 AEM(64bit
platform model) and Versatile Express A9(32bit platform).

Problem:
There exists a path in ashmem driver that could lead to acquistion
of mm->mmap_sem, ashmem_mutex in reverse order. This could lead
to deadlock in the system.
For Example, assume that mmap is called on a ashmem region
in the context of a thread say T1.
sys_mmap_pgoff (1. acquires mm->mmap_sem)
|
--> mmap_region
|
----> ashmem_mmap (2. acquires asmem_mutex)
Now if there is a context switch after 1 and before 2,
and if another thread T2 (that shares the mm struct) invokes an
ioctl say ASHMEM_GET_NAME, this can lead to the following path
ashmem_ioctl
|
-->get_name (3. acquires ashmem_mutex)
|
---> copy_to_user (4. acquires the mm->mmap_sem)
Note that the copy_to_user could lead to a valid fault if no
physical page is allocated yet for the user address passed.
Now T1 has mmap_sem and is waiting for ashmem_mutex.
and T2 has the ashmem_mutex and is waiting for mmap_sem
Thus leading to deadlock.
Solution:
Do not call copy_to_user or copy_from_user while holding the
ahsmem_mutex. Instead copy this to a local buffer that lives
in the stack while holding this lock. This will maintain data
integrity as well never reverse the lock order.
Testing:
Created a unit test case to reproduce the problem.
Used the same to test this fix on kernel version 3.4.0
Ported the same patch to 3.8

Move actual pte filling for non-linear file mappings into the new special
vma operation: ->remap_pages().
Filesystems must implement this method to get non-linear mapping support,
if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used.
Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support.

Now tmpfs supports hole-punching via fallocate(), switch madvise_remove()
to use do_fallocate() instead of vmtruncate_range(): which extends
madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE) support from tmpfs to ext4, ocfs2 and xfs.
There is one more user of vmtruncate_range() in our tree,
staging/android's ashmem_shrink(): convert it to use do_fallocate() too
(but if its unpinned areas are already unmapped - I don't know - then it
would do better to use shmem_truncate_range() directly).
