2014-02-04kbuild: don't enable DEBUG_INFO when building for COMPILE_TESTLinus Torvalds
It really isn't very interesting to have DEBUG_INFO when doing compile coverage stuff (you wouldn't want to run the result anyway, that's kind of the whole point of COMPILE_TEST), and it currently makes the build take longer and use much more disk space for "all{yes,mod}config". There's somewhat active discussion about this still, and we might end up with some new config option for things like this (Andi points out that the silly X86_DECODER_SELFTEST option also slows down the normal coverage tests hugely), but I'm starting the ball rolling with this simple one-liner. DEBUG_INFO isn't that noticeable if you have tons of memory and a good IO subsystem, but it hurts you a lot if you don't - for very little upside for the common use.

2014-01-23test: check copy_to/from_user boundary validationKees Cook
To help avoid an architecture failing to correctly check kernel/user boundaries when handling copy_to_user, copy_from_user, put_user, or get_user, perform some simple tests and fail to load if any of them behave unexpectedly. Specifically, this is to make sure there is a way to notice if things like what was fixed in commit 8404663f81d2 ("ARM: 7527/1: uaccess: explicitly check __user pointer when !CPU_USE_DOMAINS") ever regresses again, for any architecture. Additionally, adds new "user" selftest target, which loads this module.

2014-01-23test: add minimal module for verification testingKees Cook
This is a pair of test modules I'd like to see in the tree. Instead of putting these in lkdtm, where I've been adding various tests that trigger crashes, these don't make sense there since they need to be either distinctly separate, or their pass/fail state don't need to crash the machine. These live in lib/ for now, along with a few other in-kernel test modules, and use the slightly more common "test_" naming convention, instead of "test-". We should likely standardize on the former: $ find . -name 'test_*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l 4 $ find . -name 'test-*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l 2 The first is entirely a no-op module, designed to allow simple testing of the module loading and verification interface. It's useful to have a module that has no other uses or dependencies so it can be reliably used for just testing module loading and verification. The second is a module that exercises the user memory access functions, in an effort to make sure that we can quickly catch any regressions in boundary checking (e.g. like what was recently fixed on ARM). This patch (of 2): When doing module loading verification tests (for example, with module signing, or LSM hooks), it is very handy to have a module that can be built on all systems under test, isn't auto-loaded at boot, and has no device or similar dependencies. This creates the "test_module.ko" module for that purpose, which only reports its load and unload to printk.

2014-01-21dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()Dan Williams
Record actively mapped pages and provide an api for asserting a given page is dma inactive before execution proceeds. Placing debug_dma_assert_idle() in cow_user_page() flagged the violation of the dma-api in the NET_DMA implementation (see commit 77873803363c "net_dma: mark broken"). The implementation includes the capability to count, in a limited way, repeat mappings of the same page that occur without an intervening unmap. This 'overlap' counter is limited to the few bits of tag space in a radix tree. This mechanism is added to mitigate false negative cases where, for example, a page is dma mapped twice and debug_dma_assert_idle() is called after the page is un-mapped once.

2013-11-26panic: Make panic_timeout configurableJason Baron
The panic_timeout value can be set via the command line option 'panic=x', or via /proc/sys/kernel/panic, however that is not sufficient when the panic occurs before we are able to set up these values. Thus, add a CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT so that we can set the desired value from the .config. The default panic_timeout value continues to be 0 - wait forever. Also adds set_arch_panic_timeout(new_timeout, arch_default_timeout), which is intended to be used by arches in arch_setup(). The idea being that the new_timeout is only set if the user hasn't changed from the arch_default_timeout.

2013-07-25kobject: delayed kobject release: help find buggy driversRussell King
Implement debugging for kobject release functions. kobjects are reference counted, so the drop of the last reference to them is not predictable. However, the common case is for the last reference to be the kobject's removal from a subsystem, which results in the release function being immediately called. This can hide subtle bugs, which can occur when another thread holds a reference to the kobject at the same time that a kobject is removed. This results in the release method being delayed. In order to make these kinds of problems more visible, the following patch implements a delayed release; this has the effect that the release function will be out of order with respect to the removal of the kobject in the same manner that it would be if a reference was being held. This provides us with an easy way to allow driver writers to debug their drivers and fix otherwise hidden problems.

2013-07-14kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel filesPaul Gortmaker
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.

2013-06-26mutex: Add w/w mutex slowpath debuggingDaniel Vetter
Injects EDEADLK conditions at pseudo-random interval, with exponential backoff up to UINT_MAX (to ensure that every lock operation still completes in a reasonable time). This way we can test the wound slowpath even for ww mutex users where contention is never expected, and the ww deadlock avoidance algorithm is only needed for correctness against malicious userspace. An example would be protecting kernel modesetting properties, which thanks to single-threaded X isn't really expected to contend, ever. I've looked into using the CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION infrastructure, but decided against it for two reasons: - EDEADLK handling is mandatory for ww mutex users and should never affect the outcome of a syscall. This is in contrast to -ENOMEM injection. So fine configurability isn't required. - The fault injection framework only allows to set a simple probability for failure. Now the probability that a ww mutex acquire stage with N locks will never complete (due to too many injected EDEADLK backoffs) is zero. But the expected number of ww_mutex_lock operations for the completely uncontended case would be O(exp(N)). The per-acuiqire ctx exponential backoff solution choosen here only results in O(log N) overhead due to injection and so O(log N * N) lock operations. This way we can fail with high probability (and so have good test coverage even for fancy backoff and lock acquisition paths) without running into patalogical cases. Note that EDEADLK will only ever be injected when we managed to acquire the lock. This prevents any behaviour changes for users which rely on the EALREADY semantics.

2013-04-30Kconfig: consolidate CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKSStephen Boyd
The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc. To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to this config. Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls. While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

2013-01-28rcu: Provide RCU CPU stall warnings for tiny RCUPaul E. McKenney
Tiny RCU has historically omitted RCU CPU stall warnings in order to reduce memory requirements, however, lack of these warnings caused Thomas Gleixner some debugging pain recently. Therefore, this commit adds RCU CPU stall warnings to tiny RCU if RCU_TRACE=y. This keeps the memory footprint small, while still enabling CPU stall warnings in kernels built to enable them. Updated to include Josh Triplett's suggested use of RCU_STALL_COMMON config variable to simplify #if expressions. Reported-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2013-01-08rcu: Reduce rcutorture tracingPaul E. McKenney
Currently, rcutorture traces every read-side access. This can be problematic because even a two-minute rcutorture run on a two-CPU system can generate 28,853,363 reads. Normally, only a failing read is of interest, so this commit traces adjusts rcutorture's tracing to only trace failing reads. The resulting event tracing records the time and the ->completed value captured at the beginning of the RCU read-side critical section, allowing correlation with other event-tracing messages.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.
