ASoC: mt8173-rt5650: fix child-node lookup
This driver used the wrong OF-helper when looking up the optional
capture-codec child node during probe. Instead of searching just
children of the sound node, a tree-wide depth-first search starting at
the unrelated platform node was done. Not only could this end up
matching an unrelated node or no node at all; the platform node could
also be prematurely freed since of_find_node_by_name() drops a reference
to its first argument. This particular pattern has been observed leading
to crashes after probe deferrals in other drivers.
Fix this by dropping the broken call to of_find_node_by_name() and
keeping only the second, correct lookup using of_get_child_by_name()
while taking care not to bail out if the optional node is missing.
Note that this also addresses two capture-codec node-reference leaks
(one for each of the original helper calls).

PM / domains: Fix up domain-idle-states OF parsing
Commit b539cc82d493 (PM / Domains: Ignore domain-idle-states that are

the OF parsing, the number of elements in the allocated array would
exceed the numbers actually needed, thus wasting memory.
Fix this by pre-iterating the genpd OF node and counting the number of
compatible domain-idle-states nodes, before doing the allocation. While
doing this, it makes sense to rework the code a bit to avoid open coding,
of parts responsible for the OF node iteration.

kasan: rework Kconfig settings
We get a lot of very large stack frames using gcc-7.0.1 with the default
-fsanitize-address-use-after-scope --param asan-stack=1 options, which can
easily cause an overflow of the kernel stack, e.g.
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/handlers.c:2434:1: warning: the frame size of 46176 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes
drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c:5650:1: warning: the frame size of 23632 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes
lib/atomic64_test.c:250:1: warning: the frame size of 11200 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes

drivers/media/dvb-frontends/stv090x.c:3431:1: warning: the frame size of 6816 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes
fs/fscache/stats.c:287:1: warning: the frame size of 6536 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes
To reduce this risk, -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope is now split out
into a separate CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA Kconfig option, leading to stack
frames that are smaller than 2 kilobytes most of the time on x86_64. An
earlier version of this patch also prevented combining KASAN_EXTRA with
KASAN_INLINE, but that is no longer necessary with gcc-7.0.1.
All patches to get the frame size below 2048 bytes with CONFIG_KASAN=y
and CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA=n have been merged by maintainers now, so we can
bring back that default now. KASAN_EXTRA=y still causes lots of
warnings but now defaults to !COMPILE_TEST to disable it in
allmodconfig, and it remains disabled in all other defconfigs since it
is a new option. I arbitrarily raise the warning limit for KASAN_EXTRA
to 3072 to reduce the noise, but an allmodconfig kernel still has around
50 warnings on gcc-7.
I experimented a bit more with smaller stack frames and have another
follow-up series that reduces the warning limit for 64-bit architectures
to 1280 bytes (without CONFIG_KASAN).
With earlier versions of this patch series, I also had patches to address
the warnings we get with KASAN and/or KASAN_EXTRA, using a
"noinline_if_stackbloat" annotation.
That annotation now got replaced with a gcc-8 bugfix (see
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=81715) and a workaround for
older compilers, which means that KASAN_EXTRA is now just as bad as
before and will lead to an instant stack overflow in a few extreme
cases.
This reverts parts of commit 3f181b4d8652 ("lib/Kconfig.debug: disable
-Wframe-larger-than warnings with KASAN=y"). Two patches in linux-next
should be merged first to avoid introducing warnings in an allmodconfig
build: 3cd890dbe2a4 ("media: dvb-frontends: fix i2c access helpers for KASAN") 16c3ada89cff ("media: r820t: fix r820t_write_reg for KASAN")
Do we really need to backport this?
I think we do: without this patch, enabling KASAN will lead to
unavoidable kernel stack overflow in certain device drivers when built
with gcc-7 or higher on linux-4.10+ or any version that contains a
backport of commit c5caf21ab0cf8. Most people are probably still on
older compilers, but it will get worse over time as they upgrade their
distros.
The warnings we get on kernels older than this should all be for code
that uses dangerously large stack frames, though most of them do not
cause an actual stack overflow by themselves.The asan-stack option was
added in linux-4.0, and commit 3f181b4d8652 ("lib/Kconfig.debug:
disable -Wframe-larger-than warnings with KASAN=y") effectively turned
off the warning for allmodconfig kernels, so I would like to see this
fix backported to any kernels later than 4.0.
I have done dozens of fixes for individual functions with stack frames
larger than 2048 bytes with asan-stack, and I plan to make sure that
all those fixes make it into the stable kernels as well (most are
already there).
Part of the complication here is that asan-stack (from 4.0) was
originally assumed to always require much larger stacks, but that
turned out to be a combination of multiple gcc bugs that we have now
worked around and fixed, but sanitize-address-use-after-scope (from
v4.10) has a much higher inherent stack usage and also suffers from at
least three other problems that we have analyzed but not yet fixed
upstream, each of them makes the stack usage more severe than it should
be.

ipc/mqueue.c: have RT tasks queue in by priority in wq_add()
Previous behavior added tasks to the work queue using the static_prio

to be added to the work queue in a FIFO manner rather than by priority.
Normal tasks were handled by priority.
This fix utilizes the dynamic priority of the task to ensure that both RT
and normal tasks are added to the work queue in priority order. Utilizing
the dynamic priority (prio) rather than the base priority (normal_prio)
was chosen to ensure that if a task had a boosted priority when it was
added to the work queue, it would be woken sooner to to ensure that it
releases any other locks it may be holding in a more timely manner. It is
understood that the task could have a lower priority when it wakes than
when it was added to the queue in this (unlikely) case.
As described in the title, this patch fixes <ipc>id_ds inconsistency when
<ipc>ctl_stat executes concurrently with some ds-changing function, e.g.
shmat, msgsnd or whatever.
For instance, if shmctl(IPC_STAT) is running concurrently
with shmat, following data structure can be returned:

Similarly to type mismatch checks, new GCC 8.x and Clang also changed for
ABI for returns_nonnull checks. While we can update our code to conform
the new ABI it's more reasonable to just remove it. Because it's just
dead code, we don't have any single user of returns_nonnull attribute in
the whole kernel.
And AFAIU the advantage that this attribute could bring would be mitigated
by -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks cflag that we use to build the kernel.
So it's unlikely we will have a lot of returns_nonnull attribute in

exact timing, I decided to introduce fewer changes and leave the code
that determines the nanoseconds since the last seconds wrap untouched.
It's not entirely clear to me whether we should also change the time
base to CLOCK_BOOTTIME or CLOCK_TAI. With boottime, we would be
independent of changes due to settimeofday() and only see the speed
adjustment from the upstream clock source, with the downside of having
the signal be at an arbirary offset from the start of the UTC second
signal. With CLOCK_TAI, we would use the same offset from the UTC
second as before and still suffer from settimeofday() adjustments, but
would be less confused during leap seconds.
Both boottime and tai only offer usable (i.e. avoiding ktime_t to
timespec64 conversion) interfaces for ktime_t though, so either way,
changing it wouldn't take significantly more work. CLOCK_MONOTONIC
could be used with ktime_get_ts64(), but would lose synchronization

lib/test_sort.c: add module unload support
test_sort.c performs array-based and linked list sort test. Code allows
to compile either as a loadable modules or builtin into the kernel.
Current code is not allow to unload the test_sort.ko module after
successful completion.
This patch adds support to unload the "test_sort.ko" module by adding
module_exit support.
Previous patch was implemented auto unload support by returning -EAGAIN
from module_init() function on successful case, but this approach is not
ideal.
The auto-unload might seem like a nice optimization, but it encourages
inconsistent behaviour. And behaviour that is different from all other
normal modules.

lib/: make RUNTIME_TESTS a menuconfig to ease disabling it all
No need to get into the submenu to disable all related config entries.
This makes it easier to disable all RUNTIME_TESTS config options without
entering the submenu. It will also enable one to see that en/dis-abled
state from the outside menu.
This is only intended to change menuconfig UI, not change the config
dependencies.

lib: optimize cpumask_next_and()
We've measured that we spend ~0.6% of sys cpu time in cpumask_next_and().
It's essentially a joined iteration in search for a non-zero bit, which is
currently implemented as a lookup join (find a nonzero bit on the lhs,
lookup the rhs to see if it's set there).
Implement a direct join (find a nonzero bit on the incrementally built
join). Also add generic bitmap benchmarks in the new `test_find_bit`
module for new function (see `find_next_and_bit` in [2] and [3] below).
For cpumask_next_and, direct benchmarking shows that it's 1.17x to 14x
faster with a geometric mean of 2.1 on 32 CPUs [1]. No impact on memory
usage. Note that on Arm, the new pure-C implementation still outperforms
the old one that uses a mix of C and asm (`find_next_bit`) [3].
[1] Approximate benchmark code:
```
unsigned long src1p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern1};
unsigned long src2p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern2};
for (/*a bunch of repetitions*/) {
for (int n = -1; n <= nr_cpu_ids; ++n) {
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src1p)); // prevent any optimization
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src2p));
unsigned long result = cpumask_next_and(n, src1p, src2p);
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(result));
}
}

lib/find_bit_benchmark.c: improvements
As suggested in review comments:
* printk: align numbers using whitespaces instead of tabs;
* return error value from init() to avoid calling rmmod if testing again;
* use ktime_get instead of get_cycles as some arches don't support it;
lib/stackdepot.c: use a non-instrumented version of memcmp()
stackdepot used to call memcmp(), which compiler tools normally
instrument, therefore every lookup used to unnecessarily call instrumented
code. This is somewhat ok in the case of KASAN, but under KMSAN a lot of
time was spent in the instrumentation.

include/linux/bitmap.h: make bitmap_fill() and bitmap_zero() consistent
Behaviour of bitmap_fill() differs from bitmap_zero() in a way how bits
behind bitmap are handed. bitmap_zero() clears entire bitmap by unsigned
long boundary, while bitmap_fill() mimics bitmap_set().
Here we change bitmap_fill() behaviour to be consistent with bitmap_zero()
and add a note to documentation.
The change might reveal some bugs in the code where unused bits are
handled differently and in such cases bitmap_set() has to be used.

lib/test_bitmap.c: clean up test_zero_fill_copy() test case and rename
Since we have separate explicit test cases for bitmap_zero() /
bitmap_clear() and bitmap_fill() / bitmap_set(), clean up
test_zero_fill_copy() to only test bitmap_copy() functionality and thus
rename a function to reflect the changes.
While here, replace bitmap_fill() by bitmap_set() with proper values.
