      kdb: Refactor and fix bugs in kdb_read() · a1f18fb7
      Daniel Thompson authored
      Inspired by a patch from [Justin][1] I took a closer look at kdb_read().
      
      Despite Justin's patch being a (correct) one-line manipulation it was a
      tough patch to review because the surrounding code was hard to read and
      it looked like there were unfixed problems.
      
      This series isn't enough to make kdb_read() beautiful but it does make
      it shorter, easier to reason about and fixes two buffer overflows and a
      screen redraw problem!

      Changes in v3:
      - EDITME: describe what is new in this series revision.
      - EDITME: use bulletpoints and terse descriptions.
      - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240422-kgdb_read_refactor-v2-0-ed51f7d145fe@linaro.org
      
      Changes in v2:
      - No code changes!
      - I belatedly realized that one of the cleanups actually fixed a buffer
        overflow so there are changes to Cc: (to add stable@...) and to one
        of the patch descriptions.

      Kconfig: add some hidden tabs on purpose · d5cf50da
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Commit d96c3600 ("tracing: Fix FTRACE_RECORD_RECURSION_SIZE Kconfig
      entry") removed a hidden tab because it apparently showed breakage in
      some third-party kernel config parsing tool.
      
      It wasn't clear what tool it was, but let's make sure it gets fixed.
      Because if you can't parse tabs as whitespace, you should not be parsing
      the kernel Kconfig files.
      
      In fact, let's make such breakage more obvious than some esoteric ftrace
      record size option.  If you can't parse tabs, you can't have page sizes.
      
      Yes, tab-vs-space confusion is sadly a traditional Unix thing, and
      'make' is famous for being broken in this regard.  But no, that does not
      mean that it's ok.
      
      I'd add more random tabs to our Kconfig files, but I don't want to make
      things uglier than necessary.  But it *might* bbe necessary if it turns
      out we see more of this kind of silly tooling.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
      
       - Fix the buffer_percent accounting as it is dependent on three
         variables:
      
           1) pages_read - number of subbuffers read
           2) pages_lost - number of subbuffers lost due to overwrite
           3) pages_touched - number of pages that a writer entered
      
         These three counters only increment, and to know how many active
         pages there are on the buffer at any given time, the pages_read and
         pages_lost are subtracted from pages_touched.
      
         But the pages touched was incremented whenever any writer went to the
         next subbuffer even if it wasn't the only one, so it was incremented
         more than it should be causing the counter for how many subbuffers
         currently have content incorrect, which caused the buffer_percent
         that holds waiters until the ring buffer is filled to a given
         percentage to wake up early.
      
       - Fix warning of unused functions when PERF_EVENTS is not configured in
      
       - Replace bad tab with space in Kconfig for FTRACE_RECORD_RECURSION_SIZE

      block: fix that blk_time_get_ns() doesn't update time after schedule · 3ec48489
      Yu Kuai authored
      
      While monitoring the throttle time of IO from iocost, it's found that
      such time is always zero after the io_schedule() from ioc_rqos_throttle,
      for example, with the following debug patch:
      
      +       printk("%s-%d: %s enter %llu\n", current->comm, current->pid, __func__, blk_time_get_ns());
              while (true) {
                      set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
                      if (wait.committed)
                              break;
                      io_schedule();
              }
      +       printk("%s-%d: %s exit  %llu\n", current->comm, current->pid, __func__, blk_time_get_ns());
      
      It can be observerd that blk_time_get_ns() always return the same time:
      
      [ 1068.096579] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle enter 1067901962288
      [ 1068.272587] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle exit  1067901962288
      [ 1068.274389] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle enter 1067901962288
      [ 1068.472690] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle exit  1067901962288
      [ 1068.474485] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle enter 1067901962288
      [ 1068.672656] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle exit  1067901962288
      [ 1068.674451] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle enter 1067901962288
      [ 1068.872655] fio-1268: ioc_rqos_throttle exit  1067901962288
      
      And I think the root cause is that 'PF_BLOCK_TS' is always cleared
      by blk_flush_plug() before scheduel(), hence blk_plug_invalidate_ts()
      will never be called:
      
      blk_time_get_ns
       plug->cur_ktime = ktime_get_ns();
       current->flags |= PF_BLOCK_TS;
      
      io_schedule:
       io_schedule_prepare
        blk_flush_plug
         __blk_flush_plug
          /* the flag is cleared, while time is not */
          current->flags &= ~PF_BLOCK_TS;
       schedule
       sched_update_worker
        /* the flag is not set, hence plug->cur_ktime is not cleared */
        if (tsk->flags & PF_BLOCK_TS)
         blk_plug_invalidate_ts()
      
      blk_time_get_ns
       /* got the time stashed before schedule */
       return plug->cur_ktime;
      
      Fix the problem by clearing cached time in __blk_flush_plug().

      Building with clang results in the following warning:

      selftests: kselftest: Mark functions that unconditionally call exit() as __noreturn · f7d5bcd3
      Nathan Chancellor authored
      
      After commit 6d029c25 ("selftests/timers/posix_timers: Reimplement
      check_timer_distribution()"), clang warns:
      
        tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:398:6: warning: variable 'major' is used uninitialized whenever '||' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
          398 |         if (uname(&info) || sscanf(info.release, "%u.%u.", &major, &minor) != 2)
              |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~
        tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:401:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
          401 |         return major > min_major || (major == min_major && minor >= min_minor);
              |                ^~~~~
        tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:398:6: note: remove the '||' if its condition is always false
          398 |         if (uname(&info) || sscanf(info.release, "%u.%u.", &major, &minor) != 2)
              |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:395:20: note: initialize the variable 'major' to silence this warning
          395 |         unsigned int major, minor;
              |                           ^
              |                            = 0
      
      This is a false positive because if uname() fails, ksft_exit_fail_msg()
      will be called, which unconditionally calls exit(), a noreturn function.
      However, clang does not know that ksft_exit_fail_msg() will call exit() at
      the point in the pipeline that the warning is emitted because inlining has
      not occurred, so it assumes control flow will resume normally after
      ksft_exit_fail_msg() is called.
      
      Make it clear to clang that all of the functions that call exit()
      unconditionally in kselftest.h are noreturn transitively by marking them
      explicitly with '__attribute__((__noreturn__))', which clears up the
      warning above and any future warnings that may appear for the same reason.
