minmax: make generic MIN() and MAX() macros available everywhere

2024-07-28T22:49:18+00:00

This just standardizes the use of MIN() and MAX() macros, with the very traditional semantics. The goal is to use these for C constant expressions and for top-level / static initializers, and so be able to simplify the min()/max() macros. These macro names were used by various kernel code - they are very traditional, after all - and all such users have been fixed up, with a few different approaches: - trivial duplicated macro definitions have been removed Note that 'trivial' here means that it's obviously kernel code that already included all the major kernel headers, and thus gets the new generic MIN/MAX macros automatically. - non-trivial duplicated macro definitions are guarded with #ifndef This is the "yes, they define their own versions, but no, the include situation is not entirely obvious, and maybe they don't get the generic version automatically" case. - strange use case #1 A couple of drivers decided that the way they want to describe their versioning is with #define MAJ 1 #define MIN 2 #define DRV_VERSION __stringify(MAJ) "." __stringify(MIN) which adds zero value and I just did my Alexander the Great impersonation, and rewrote that pointless Gordian knot as #define DRV_VERSION "1.2" instead. - strange use case #2 A couple of drivers thought that it's a good idea to have a random 'MIN' or 'MAX' define for a value or index into a table, rather than the traditional macro that takes arguments. These values were re-written as C enum's instead. The new function-line macros only expand when followed by an open parenthesis, and thus don't clash with enum use. Happily, there weren't really all that many of these cases, and a lot of users already had the pattern of using '#ifndef' guarding (or in one case just using '#undef MIN') before defining their own private version that does the same thing. I left such cases alone. Cc: David Laight Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Pull timer migration updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Fixes and minor updates for the timer migration code: - Stop testing the group->parent pointer as it is not guaranteed to be stable over a chain of operations by design. This includes a warning which would be nice to have but it produces false positives due to the racy nature of the check. - Plug a race between CPUs going in and out of idle and a CPU hotplug operation. The latter can create and connect a new hierarchy level which is missed in the concurrent updates of CPUs which go into idle. As a result the events of such a CPU might not be processed and timers go stale. Cure it by splitting the hotplug operation into a prepare and online callback. The prepare callback is guaranteed to run on an online and therefore active CPU. This CPU updates the hierarchy and being online ensures that there is always at least one migrator active which handles the modified hierarchy correctly when going idle. The online callback which runs on the incoming CPU then just marks the CPU active and brings it into operation. - Improve tracing and polish the code further so it is more obvious what's going on" * tag 'timers-urgent-2024-07-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: timers/migration: Fix grammar in comment timers/migration: Spare write when nothing changed timers/migration: Rename childmask by groupmask to make naming more obvious timers/migration: Read childmask and parent pointer in a single place timers/migration: Use a single struct for hierarchy walk data timers/migration: Improve tracing timers/migration: Move hierarchy setup into cpuhotplug prepare callback timers/migration: Do not rely always on group->parent

sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers

2024-07-24T18:59:29+00:00

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function signatures. This is a prerequisite to moving the static ctl_table structs into .rodata data which will ensure that proc_handler function pointers cannot be modified. This patch has been generated by the following coccinelle script: ``` virtual patch @r1@ identifier ctl, write, buffer, lenp, ppos; identifier func !~ "appldata_(timer|interval)_handler|sched_(rt|rr)_handler|rds_tcp_skbuf_handler|proc_sctp_do_(hmac_alg|rto_min|rto_max|udp_port|alpha_beta|auth|probe_interval)"; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table *ctl + const struct ctl_table *ctl ,int write, void *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos); @r2@ identifier func, ctl, write, buffer, lenp, ppos; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table *ctl + const struct ctl_table *ctl ,int write, void *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos) { ... } @r3@ identifier func; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table * + const struct ctl_table * ,int , void *, size_t *, loff_t *); @r4@ identifier func, ctl; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table *ctl + const struct ctl_table *ctl ,int , void *, size_t *, loff_t *); @r5@ identifier func, write, buffer, lenp, ppos; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table * + const struct ctl_table * ,int write, void *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos); ``` * Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code conventions. The xfs_stats_clear_proc_handler, xfs_panic_mask_proc_handler and xfs_deprecated_dointvec_minmax where adjusted. * The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified. This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the proc_handler migration.
