They have slightly different implementations, but the only important difference is that strncasecmp doesn't handle len==0 appropriately; it effectively becomes strcasecmp in that case. strnicmp correctly says that two strings are always equal in their first 0 characters. strncasecmp is the POSIX name for this functionality. So rename the non-broken function to the standard name. To minimize the impact on the rest of the kernel (and since both are exported to modules), make strnicmp a wrapper for strncasecmp.

The "TEST_MODULE" feature thereby violates this convention. The feature is used to compile the lib/test_module.c kernel module. Sadly this convention is not made explicit, but the Kconfig code documents it. The following code (./scripts/kconfig/confdata.c) is used to generate the autoconf.h header file during the build process. When a feature is selected as a kernel module ('m'), it is suffixed with "_MODULE" to indicate it. switch (*value) { case 'n': break; case 'm': suffix = "_MODULE"; /* fall through */ This causes problems for static code analysis, which assumes a consistent use of the "_MODULE" suffix. This patch renames the feature and its reference in a Makefile to "TEST_LKM", which still expresses the test of a LKM.

This corruption is often silent and can go unnoticed. However once the corrupted region is examined at a later stage, the outcome is undefined and often results in a sporadic page fault which cannot be handled. This patch checks for a stack overrun and takes appropriate action since the damage is already done, there is no point in continuing.

In particular qrwlock is fair outside of interrupt context, but in interrupt context readers will ignore all fairness. The problem modeling this is that read and write side have different lock state (interrupts) semantics but we only have a single representation of these. Therefore lockdep will get confused, thinking the lock can cause interrupt lock inversions. So revert it for now; the old rwlock semantics were already imperfectly modeled and the qrwlock extra won't fit either. If we want to properly fix this, I think we need to resurrect the work by Gautham did a few years ago that split the read and write state of locks: http://lwn.net/Articles/332801/ FWIW the locking selftest that would've failed (and was reported by Borislav earlier) is something like: RL(X1); /* IRQ-ON */ LOCK(A); UNLOCK(A); RU(X1); IRQ_ENTER(); RL(X1); /* IN-IRQ */ RU(X1); IRQ_EXIT(); At which point it would report that because A is an IRQ-unsafe lock we can suffer the following inversion: CPU0 CPU1 lock(A) lock(X1) lock(A) <IRQ> lock(X1) And this is 'wrong' because X1 can recurse (assuming the above lock are in fact read-lock) but lockdep doesn't know about this.

Notable changes are... - percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed. This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for writeback IOs. Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe0c ("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator") just now. - percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on 64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects directly. - The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging. There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of conflicts with s390 and other trees.

This makes the atomic mode difficult to use for cases where a percpu_ref is used as a persistent on/off switch which may be cycled multiple times. This patch makes such atomic state sticky so that it survives through kill/reinit cycles. After this patch, atomic state is cleared only by an explicit percpu_ref_switch_to_percpu() call.

Similarly, percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic/percpu() allow dynamic selection of operation mode; however, currently a newly initialized percpu_ref is always in percpu mode making it impossible to avoid the latency overhead of switching to atomic mode. This patch adds @flags to percpu_ref_init() and implements the following flags. * PERCPU_REF_INIT_ATOMIC : start ref in atomic mode * PERCPU_REF_INIT_DEAD : start ref killed and drained These flags should be able to serve the above two use cases. v2: target_core_tpg.c conversion was missing.

For now, ATOMIC and DEAD are changed together and all PCPU_REF_ATOMIC uses are converted to PCPU_REF_ATOMIC_DEAD without causing any behavior changes. percpu_ref_init() now specifies an explicit alignment when allocating the percpu counters so that the pointer has enough unused low bits to accomodate the flags. Note that one flag was fine as min alignment for percpu memory is 2 bytes but two flags are already too many for the natural alignment of unsigned longs on archs like cris and m68k. v2: The original patch had BUILD_BUG_ON() which triggers if unsigned long's alignment isn't enough to accomodate the flags, which triggered on cris and m64k. percpu_ref_init() updated to specify the required alignment explicitly.

This makes it impossible to use a percpu_ref to count memory objects or pages on 64bit machines as it may overflow. This forces those users to somehow aggregate the references before contributing to the percpu_ref which is often cumbersome and sometimes challenging to get the same level of performance as using the percpu_ref directly. While using ints for the percpu counters makes them pack tighter on 64bit machines, the possible gain from using ints instead of longs is extremely small compared to the overall gain from per-cpu operation. This patch makes percpu_ref based on longs so that it can be used to directly count memory objects or pages.
