the current code is still safe as long dev->of_node is non-NULL

The warning is now disabled by default, but still appears when

"Kernel side caching and executable bugfix
This allows OrangeFS to utilize the dcache and adds an in kernel
attribute cache. We previously used the user side client for this
purpose.
We see a modest performance increase on small file operations. For
example, without the cache, compiling coreutils takes about 17
minutes. With the patch and a 50 millisecond timeout for
dcache_timeout_msecs and getattr_timeout_msecs (the default),
compiling coreutils takes about 6 minutes 20 seconds. On the same
hardware, compiling coreutils on an xfs filesystem takes 90 seconds.
We see similar improvements with mdtest and a test involving writing,
reading, and deleting a large number of small files.
Interested parties can review more data at the following URL.
The eventual goal of this is to allow getdents to turn into a
readdirplus to the OrangeFS server. The cache will be filled then,
which should provide a performance benefit to the common case of
readdir followed by getattr on each entry (i.e. ls -l).
This also fixes a bug. When orangefs_inode_permission was added, it
did not collect i_size from the OrangeFS server, since this presses an
unnecessary load on the OrangeFS server. However, it left a case
where i_size is never initialized. Then running an executable could
fail.
With this patch, size is always collected to be inserted into the

To instrument a part of the kernel, you can use either

relay: add global mode support for buffer-only channels
Commit 20d8b67c06fa ("relay: add buffer-only channels; useful for early
logging") added support to use channels with no associated files.
This is useful when the exact location of relay file is not known or the
the parent directory of relay file is not available, while creating the
channel and the logging has to start right from the boot.
But there was no provision to use global mode with buffer-only channels,
which is added by this patch, without modifying the interface where
initially there will be a dummy invocation of create_buf_file callback
through which kernel client can convey the need of a global buffer.
For the use case where drivers/kernel clients want a simple interface
for the userspace, which enables them to capture data/logs from relay
file inorder & without any post processing, support of Global buffer
mode is warranted.
Modules, like i915, using relay_open() in early init would have to later
register their buffer-only relays, once debugfs is available, by calling
relay_late_setup_files(). Hence relay_late_setup_files() symbol also
needs to be exported.

If the hdq reading process is scheduled slowly or interrupts are
disabled for a while the hardware read activity might already be
finished on entry of hdq_read_byte(). And hdq_isr() already has set the
hdq_irqstatus to 0x6 (can be seen in debug mode) denoting that both, the
TXCOMPLETE and RXCOMPLETE interrupts occurred in parallel.
This means there is no need to wait and the hdq_read_byte() can just
read the byte from the hdq controller.
By resetting hdq_irqstatus to 0 the read process is forced to be always
waiting again (because the if statement always succeeds) but the
hardware will not issue another RXCOMPLETE interrupt. This results in a
false timeout.

kexec: allow architectures to override boot mapping
kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For
certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system
does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a
special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space.
To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the
boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical
addresses. This patch extracts the current transation points into
linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions.
Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six
translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the
architecture can override.

binfmt_elf: fix calculations for bss padding
A double-bug exists in the bss calculation code, where an overflow can
happen in the "last_bss - elf_bss" calculation, but vm_brk internally
aligns the argument, underflowing it, wrapping back around safe. We
shouldn't depend on these bugs staying in sync, so this cleans up the
bss padding handling to avoid the overflow.
This moves the bss padzero() before the last_bss > elf_bss case, since
the zero-filling of the ELF_PAGE should have nothing to do with the
relationship of last_bss and elf_bss: any trailing portion should be
zeroed, and a zero size is already handled by padzero().
Then it handles the math on elf_bss vs last_bss correctly. These need
to both be ELF_PAGE aligned to get the comparison correct, since that's
the expected granularity of the mappings. Since elf_bss already had
alignment-based padding happen in padzero(), the "start" of the new
vm_brk() should be moved forward as done in the original code. However,
since the "end" of the vm_brk() area will already become PAGE_ALIGNed in
vm_brk() then last_bss should get aligned here to avoid hiding it as a
side-effect.
Additionally makes a cosmetic change to the initial last_bss calculation
so it's easier to read in comparison to the load_addr calculation above
it (i.e. the only difference is p_filesz vs p_memsz).

firmware: support loading into a pre-allocated buffer
Some systems are memory constrained but they need to load very large
firmwares. The firmware subsystem allows drivers to request this
firmware be loaded from the filesystem, but this requires that the
entire firmware be loaded into kernel memory first before it's provided
to the driver. This can lead to a situation where we map the firmware
twice, once to load the firmware into kernel memory and once to copy the
firmware into the final resting place.
This creates needless memory pressure and delays loading because we have
to copy from kernel memory to somewhere else. Let's add a
request_firmware_into_buf() API that allows drivers to request firmware
be loaded directly into a pre-allocated buffer. This skips the
intermediate step of allocating a buffer in kernel memory to hold the
firmware image while it's read from the filesystem. It also requires
that drivers know how much memory they'll require before requesting the
firmware and negates any benefits of firmware caching because the
firmware layer doesn't manage the buffer lifetime.
For a 16MB buffer, about half the time is spent performing a memcpy from
the buffer to the final resting place. I see loading times go from
0.081171 seconds to 0.047696 seconds after applying this patch. Plus
the vmalloc pressure is reduced.

to the driver. This can lead to a situation where we map the firmware
twice, once to load the firmware into kernel memory and once to copy the
firmware into the final resting place.
This design creates needless memory pressure and delays loading because
we have to copy from kernel memory to somewhere else. This patch sets
adds support to the request firmware API to load the firmware directly
into a pre-allocated buffer, skipping the intermediate copying step and
alleviating memory pressure during firmware loading. The drawback is
that we can't use the firmware caching feature because the memory for
the firmware cache is not managed by the firmware layer.
This patch (of 3):
We use similar structured code to read and write the kmapped firmware
pages. The only difference is read copies from the kmap region and
write copies to it. Consolidate this into one function to reduce
duplication.

radix-tree: fix comment about "exceptional" bits
The bottom two bits of radix tree entries are reserved for special use
by the radix tree code itself. A comment detailing their usage was
added by commit 3bcadd6fa6c4 ("radix-tree: free up the bottom bit of
exceptional entries for reuse")
This comment states that if the bottom two bits are '11', this means
that this is a locked exceptional entry.
It turns out that this bit combination was never actually used. Radix
tree locking for DAX was indeed implemented, but it actually used the
third LSB:
/* We use lowest available exceptional entry bit for locking */
#define RADIX_DAX_ENTRY_LOCK (1 << RADIX_TREE_EXCEPTIONAL_SHIFT)
This locking code was also made specific to the DAX code instead of
being generally implemented in radix-tree.h.
So, fix the comment.

printk: add kernel parameter to control writes to /dev/kmsg
Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how
userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options:
* ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace.
* on - unlimited logging from userspace
* off - logging from userspace gets ignored
The default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it.
This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do
that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane
levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps
around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a
sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of
survival from all the spamming.
It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is
booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line.
Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl
interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg.
That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been
supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a
one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime.
This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the
logging on us through sysctl(2).

printk: include <asm/sections.h> instead of <asm-generic/sections.h>
asm-generic headers are generic implementations for architecture
specific code and should not be included by common code. Thus use the
asm/ version of sections.h to get at the linker sections.
Messages' levels and console log level are inspected when the actual
printing occurs, which may provoke console_unlock() and
console_cont_flush() to waste CPU cycles on every message that has
loglevel above the current console_loglevel.
Schematically, console_unlock() does the following:
level = msg->level;
len += msg_print_text(); >> sprintfs
memcpy,
etc.
if (nr_ext_console_drivers) {
ext_len = msg_print_ext_header(); >> scnprintf
ext_len += msg_print_ext_body(); >> scnprintfs
etc.
}
...
raw_spin_unlock(&logbuf_lock);
call_console_drivers(level, ext_text, ext_len, text, len)
{
if (level >= console_loglevel && >> drop the message
!ignore_loglevel)
return;
console->write(...);
}
local_irq_restore(flags);
}
...
}
The thing here is this deferred `level >= console_loglevel' check. We
are wasting CPU cycles on sprintfs/memcpy/etc. preparing the messages
that we will eventually drop.
This can be huge when we register a new CON_PRINTBUFFER console, for
instance. For every such a console register_console() resets the
console_seq, console_idx, console_prev
and sets a `exclusive console' pointer to replay the log buffer to that
just-registered console. And there can be a lot of messages to replay,
in the worst case most of which can be dropped after console_loglevel
test.
We know messages' levels long before we call msg_print_text() and
friends, so we can just move console_loglevel check out of
call_console_drivers() and format a new message only if we are sure that
it won't be dropped.
The patch factors out loglevel check into suppress_message_printing()
function and tests message->level and console_loglevel before formatting
functions in console_unlock() and console_cont_flush() are getting
executed. This improves things not only for exclusive CON_PRINTBUFFER
consoles, but for every console_unlock() that attempts to print a
message of level above the console_loglevel.

UML is a bit special since it does not have iomem nor dma. That means a
lot of drivers will not build if they miss a dependency on HAS_IOMEM.
s390 used to have the same issues but since it gained PCI support UML is
the only stranger.
We are tired of patching dozens of new drivers after every merge window
just to un-break allmod/yesconfig UML builds. One could argue that a
decent driver has to know on what it depends and therefore a missing
HAS_IOMEM dependency is a clear driver bug. But the dependency not
obvious and not everyone does UML builds with COMPILE_TEST enabled when
developing a device driver.
A possible solution to make these builds succeed on UML would be
providing stub functions for ioremap() and friends which fail upon
runtime. Another one is simply disabling COMPILE_TEST for UML. Since
it is the least hassle and does not force use to fake iomem support
let's do the latter.
