If the product is only 64bits div64_u64() can be used for the divide.
Replace the pre-multiply check (ilog2(a) + ilog2(b) <= 62) with a simple
post-multiply check that the high 64bits are zero.
This has the advantage of being simpler, more accurate and less code. It
will always be faster when the product is larger than 64bits.
Most 64bit cpu have a native 64x64=128 bit multiply, this is needed (for
the low 64bits) even when div64_u64() is called - so the early check gains
nothing and is just extra code.
32bit cpu will need a compare (etc) to generate the 64bit ilog2() from two
32bit bit scans - so that is non-trivial. (Never mind the mess of x86's
'bsr' and any oddball cpu without fast bit-scan instructions.) Whereas the
additional instructions for the 128bit multiply result are pretty much one
multiply and two adds (typically the 'adc $0,%reg' can be run in parallel
with the instruction that follows).
The only outliers are 64bit systems without 128bit mutiply and simple in
order 32bit ones with fast bit scan but needing extra instructions to get
the high bits of the multiply result. I doubt it makes much difference to
either, the latter is definitely not mainstream.
If anyone is worried about the analysis they can look at the generated
code for x86 (especially when cmov isn't used).

Patch series "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()", v5.
The pwm-stm32.c code wants a 'rounding up' version of
mul_u64_u64_div_u64(). This can be done simply by adding 'divisor - 1' to
the 128bit product. Implement mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, c, d) = (a *
b + c)/d based on the existing code. Define mul_u64_u64_div_u64(a, b, d)
as mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, 0, d) and mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup(a,
b, d) as mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, d-1, d).
Only x86-64 has an optimsed (asm) version of the function. That is
optimised to avoid the 'add c' when c is known to be zero. In all other
cases the extra code will be noise compared to the software divide code.
The test module has been updated to test mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup() and
also enhanced it to verify the C division code on x86-64 and the 32bit
division code on 64bit.
This patch (of 9):
Change to prototype from mul_u64_u64_div_u64(u64 a, u64 b, u64 c) to
mul_u64_u64_div_u64(u64 a, u64 b, u64 d). Using 'd' for 'divisor' makes
more sense.
An upcoming change adds a 'c' parameter to calculate (a * b + c)/d.

The chain allocator field cl_bpc (blocks per cluster) is read from disk
and used in division operations without validation. A corrupted
filesystem image with cl_bpc=0 causes a divide-by-zero crash in the
kernel:

ocfs2_mknod+0x83c/0x2050 fs/ocfs2/namei.c:306
This patch adds validation in ocfs2_validate_inode_block() to ensure
cl_bpc matches the expected value calculated from the superblock's cluster
size and block size for chain allocator inodes (identified by
OCFS2_CHAIN_FL).
Moving the validation to inode validation time (rather than allocation time)
has several benefits:
- Validates once when the inode is read, rather than on every allocation
- Protects all code paths that use cl_bpc (allocation, resize, etc.)
- Follows the existing pattern of inode validation in OCFS2
- Centralizes validation logic
The validation catches both:
- Zero values that cause divide-by-zero crashes
- Non-zero but incorrect values indicating filesystem corruption or
mismatched filesystem geometry
With this fix, mounting a corrupted filesystem produces:
OCFS2: ERROR (device loop0): ocfs2_validate_inode_block: Inode 74
has corrupted cl_bpc: ondisk=0 expected=16
instead of a kernel crash.

Compiler was not happy about dead variable in use:

52 | static const char sys_info_avail[] = "tasks,mem,timers,locks,ftrace,all_bt,blocked_tasks";

This was fixed by adding __maybe_unused attribute that just hides the
issue and didn't actually fix the root cause. Rewrite the fix by moving
the local variable from stack to a heap.
As a side effect this drops unneeded "synchronisation" of duplicative info
and also makes code ready for the further refactoring.

rcu_read_lock() was added to shut RCU-lockdep up when this code used
__task_cred()->rcu_dereference(), but after the commit 21d1c5e386
("Reimplement RLIMIT_NPROC on top of ucounts") it is no longer needed:
task_ucounts()->task_cred_xxx() takes rcu_read_lock() itself.
NOTE: task_ucounts() returns the pointer to another rcu-protected data,
struct ucounts. So it should either be used when task->real_cred and thus
task->real_cred->ucounts is stable (release_task, copy_process,
copy_creds), or it should be called under rcu_read_lock(). In both cases
it is pointless to take rcu_read_lock() to read the cred->ucounts pointer.

In practical problem diagnosis, especially during the boot phase, it is
often desirable to know the call sequence. However, currently, apart from
adding print statements and recompiling the kernel, there seems to be no
good alternative. If dynamic_debug supported printing the call stack, it
would be very helpful for diagnosing issues. This patch add support '+d'
for dump stack.

The kernel cmdline length is allowed to be longer than what printk can
handle. When this happens the cmdline that's printed to the kernel ring
buffer at bootup is cutoff and some kernel cmdline options are "hidden"
from the logs. This undercuts the usefulness of the log message.
Specifically, grepping for COMMAND_LINE_SIZE shows that 2048 is common and
some architectures even define it as 4096. s390 allows a CONFIG-based
maximum up to 1MB (though it's not expected that anyone will go over the
default max of 4096 [1]).
The maximum message pr_notice() seems to be able to handle (based on
experiment) is 1021 characters. This appears to be based on the current
value of PRINTKRB_RECORD_MAX as 1024 and the fact that pr_notice() spends
2 characters on the loglevel prefix and we have a '\n' at the end.
While it would be possible to increase the limits of printk() (and
therefore pr_notice()) somewhat, it doesn't appear possible to increase it
enough to fully include a 2048-character cmdline without breaking
userspace. Specifically on at least two tested userspaces (ChromeOS plus
the Debian-based distro I'm typing this message on) the `dmesg` tool reads
lines from `/dev/kmsg` in 2047-byte chunks. As per
`Documentation/ABI/testing/dev-kmsg`:
Every read() from the opened device node receives one record
of the kernel's printk buffer.
...
Messages in the record ring buffer get overwritten as whole,
there are never partial messages received by read().
We simply can't fit a 2048-byte cmdline plus the "Kernel command line:"
prefix plus info about time/log_level/etc in a 2047-byte read.
The above means that if we want to avoid the truncation we need to do some
type of wrapping of the cmdline when printing.
Add wrapping to the printout of the kernel command line. By default, the
wrapping is set to 1021 characters to avoid breaking anyone, but allow
wrapping to be set lower by a Kconfig knob
"CONFIG_CMDLINE_LOG_WRAP_IDEAL_LEN". Any tools that are correctly parsing
the cmdline today (because it is less than 1021 characters) will see no
difference in their behavior. The format of wrapped output is designed to
be matched by anyone using "grep" to search for the cmdline and also to be
easy for tools to handle. Anyone who is sure their tools (if any) handle
the wrapped format can choose a lower wrapping value and have prettier
output.
Setting CONFIG_CMDLINE_LOG_WRAP_IDEAL_LEN to 0 fully disables the wrapping
logic. This means that long command lines will be truncated again, but
this config could be set if command lines are expected to be long and
userspace is known not to handle parsing logs with the wrapping.
Wrapping is based on spaces, ignoring quotes. All lines are prefixed with
"Kernel command line: " and lines that are not the last line have a " \"
suffix added to them. The prefix and suffix count towards the line length
for wrapping purposes. The ideal length will be exceeded if no
appropriate place to wrap is found.
The wrapping function added here is fairly generic and could be made a
library function (somewhat like print_hex_dump()) if it's needed elsewhere
in the kernel. However, having printk() directly incorporate this
wrapping would be unlikely to be a good idea since it would break
printouts into more than one record without any obvious common line prefix
to tie lines together. It would also be extra overhead when, in general,
kernel log message should simply be kept smaller than 1021 bytes. For
some discussion on this topic, see responses to the v1 posting of this
patch [2].

If setup_mq_sysctls(ns) fails after mq_init_ns(ns) succeeds, the error
path skipped releasing the internal kernel mqueue mount kept in
ns->mq_mnt. That leaves the vfsmount/superblock referenced until final
namespace teardown, i.e. a resource leak on this rare failure edge.
Unwind it by calling mntput(ns->mq_mnt) before dropping user_ns and
freeing the IPC namespace. This mirrors the normal ordering used in

The TAINT_RANDSTRUCT and TAINT_FWCTL flags are mistakenly set in the
taint_flags table as per-module flags. While this can be trivially
corrected, the issue can be avoided altogether by removing the
taint_flag.module field.
This is possible because, since commit 7fd8329ba5 ("taint/module: Clean
up global and module taint flags handling") in 2016, the handling of
module taint flags has been fully generic. Specifically,
module_flags_taint() can print all flags, and the required output buffer
size is properly defined in terms of TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT. The actual
per-module flags are always those added to module.taints by calls to
add_taint_module().

This warning occurs due to a conflict between crashkernel and System RAM
iomem resources.
The generic crashkernel reservation adds the crashkernel memory range to
/proc/iomem during early initialization. Later, all memblock ranges are
added to /proc/iomem as System RAM. If the crashkernel region overlaps
with any memblock range, it causes a conflict while adding those memblock
regions as iomem resources, triggering the above warning. The conflicting
memblock regions are then omitted from /proc/iomem.
For example, if the following crashkernel region is added to /proc/iomem:
20000000-11fffffff : Crash kernel
then the following memblock regions System RAM regions fail to be inserted:
00000000-7fffffff : System RAM
80000000-257fffffff : System RAM
Fix this by not adding the crashkernel memory to /proc/iomem on powerpc.
Introduce an architecture hook to let each architecture decide whether to
export the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.
For more info checkout commit c40dd2f766 ("powerpc: Add System RAM
to /proc/iomem") and commit bce074bdbc ("powerpc: insert System RAM
resource to prevent crashkernel conflict")
Note: Before switching to the generic crashkernel reservation, powerpc
never exported the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.

but by now, those pointers to versions, such later than 4.0, later than
4.4, or clang later than 5.0, are obsolete and unlikely to be found by
users configuring their kernel builds anyway.
Drop these outdated remarks in Kconfig help texts referring to older
compiler and binutils versions. No functional change.

__scs_magic() needs a 'void *' variable, but a 'struct task_struct *' is
given. 'task_scs(tsk)' is the starting address of the task's shadow call
stack, and '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))' is the end address of the task's
shadow call stack. Here should be '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))'.
The user-visible effect of this bug is that when CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
is enabled, the shadow call stack usage checking function
(scs_check_usage) would scan an incorrect memory range. This could lead
to:
1. **Inaccurate stack usage reporting**: The function would calculate
wrong usage statistics for the shadow call stack, potentially showing
incorrect value in kmsg.
2. **Potential kernel crash**: If the value of __scs_magic(tsk)is
greater than that of __scs_magic(task_scs(tsk)), the for loop may
access unmapped memory, potentially causing a kernel panic. However,
this scenario is unlikely because task_struct is allocated via the slab
allocator (which typically returns lower addresses), while the shadow
call stack returned by task_scs(tsk) is allocated via vmalloc(which
typically returns higher addresses).
However, since this is purely a debugging feature
(CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE), normal production systems should be not
unaffected. The bug only impacts developers and testers who are actively
debugging stack usage with this configuration enabled.

During kexec_segment loading, when copying the content of the segment
(i.e. kexec_segment::kbuf or kexec_segment::buf) to its associated pages,
kimage_load_{cma,normal,crash}_segment handle the case where the physical
address of the segment is not page aligned, e.g. in
kimage_load_normal_segment:
page = kimage_alloc_page(image, GFP_HIGHUSER, maddr);
// ...
ptr = kmap_local_page(page);
// ...
ptr += maddr & ~PAGE_MASK;
mchunk = min_t(size_t, mbytes,
PAGE_SIZE - (maddr & ~PAGE_MASK));
// ^^^^ Non page-aligned segments handled here ^^^
// ...
if (image->file_mode)
memcpy(ptr, kbuf, uchunk);
else
result = copy_from_user(ptr, buf, uchunk);
(similar logic is present in kimage_load_{cma,crash}_segment).
This is actually not needed because, prior to their loading, all
kexec_segments first go through a vetting step in
`sanity_check_segment_list`, which rejects any segment that is not
page-aligned:
for (i = 0; i < nr_segments; i++) {
unsigned long mstart, mend;
mstart = image->segment[i].mem;
mend = mstart + image->segment[i].memsz;
// ...
if ((mstart & ~PAGE_MASK) || (mend & ~PAGE_MASK))
return -EADDRNOTAVAIL;
// ...
}
In case `sanity_check_segment_list` finds a non-page aligned the whole
kexec load is aborted and no segment is loaded.
This means that `kimage_load_{cma,normal,crash}_segment` never actually
have to handle non page-aligned segments and `(maddr & ~PAGE_MASK) == 0`
is always true no matter if the segment is coming from a file (i.e.
`kexec_file_load` syscall), from a user-space buffer (i.e. `kexec_load`
syscall) or created by the kernel through `kexec_add_buffer`. In the
latter case, `kexec_add_buffer` actually enforces the page alignment:
/* Ensure minimum alignment needed for segments. */
kbuf->memsz = ALIGN(kbuf->memsz, PAGE_SIZE);
kbuf->buf_align = max(kbuf->buf_align, PAGE_SIZE);
