I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Since kcmp syscall has been implemented (initially on x86 architecture) a
number of other archs wire it up as well: xtensa, sparc, sh, s390, mips,
microblaze, m68k (not taking into account those who uses
<asm-generic/unistd.h> for syscall numbers definitions).
But the Makefile, which turns kcmp.o generation on still depends on former
config-x86. Thus get rid of this limitation and make kcmp.o depend on
CHECKPOINT_RESTORE option.

If kimage_normal_alloc() fails to initialize an allocated kimage, it will
free the image but would still set 'rimage', as a result kexec_load will
try to free it again.
This would explode as part of the freeing process is accessing internal
members which point to uninitialized memory.

This patch exports a PG_hwpoison into vmcoreinfo when
CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE is defined. "makedumpfile" needs to read
information of memory, such as 'mem_section', 'zone', 'pageflags' from
vmcore.
We introduce a function into "makedumpfile" to exclude hwpoison page from
vmcore dump. In order to introduce this function, PG_hwpoison flag have
to export into vmcoreinfo.

tAdd adds the values related to buddy system to vmcoreinfo data so that
makedumpfile (dump filtering command) can filter out all free pages with
the new logic.
It's faster than the current logic because it can distinguish free page
by analyzing page structure at the same time as filtering for other
unnecessary pages (e.g. anonymous page).
OTOH, the current logic has to trace free_list to distinguish free pages
while analyzing page structure to filter out other unnecessary pages.
The new logic uses the fact that buddy page is marked by _mapcount ==
PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE. But, _mapcount shares its memory with other
fields for SLAB/SLUB when PG_slab is set, so we need to check if PG_slab
is set or not before looking up _mapcount value. And we can get the
order of buddy system from private field. To sum it up, the values
below are required for this logic.
Required values:
- OFFSET(page._mapcount)
- OFFSET(page.private)
- NUMBER(PG_slab)
- NUMBER(PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE)
Changelog from v1 to v2:
1. remove SIZE(pageflags)
The new logic was changed after I sent v1 patch.
Accordingly, SIZE(pageflags) has been unnecessary for makedumpfile.
What's makedumpfile:
makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile by excluding unnecessary pages
for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, makedumpfile gets
the vmcoreinfo data which has the minimum debugging information only
for dump filtering.

We shouldn't try_to_freeze if locks are held. Holding a lock can cause a
deadlock if the lock is later acquired in the suspend or hibernate path
(e.g. by dpm). Holding a lock can also cause a deadlock in the case of
cgroup_freezer if a lock is held inside a frozen cgroup that is later
acquired by a process outside that group.

The idea is simple. We need to get the siginfo for each signal on
checkpointing dump, and then return it back on restore.
The first problem is that the kernel doesn't report complete siginfos to
userspace. In a signal handler the kernel strips SI_CODE from siginfo.
When a siginfo is received from signalfd, it has a different format with
fixed sizes of fields. The interface of signalfd was extended. If a
signalfd is created with the flag SFD_RAW, it returns siginfo in a raw
format.
rt_sigqueueinfo looks suitable for restoring signals, but it can't send
siginfo with a positive si_code, because these codes are reserved for
the kernel. In the real world each person has right to do anything with
himself, so I think a process should able to send any siginfo to itself.
This patch:
The kernel prevents sending of siginfo with positive si_code, because
these codes are reserved for kernel. I think we can allow a task to
send such a siginfo to itself. This operation should not be dangerous.
This functionality is required for restoring signals in
checkpoint/restart.

__orderly_poweroff() does argv_free() if call_usermodehelper_fns()
returns -ENOMEM. As Lucas pointed out, this can be wrong if -ENOMEM was
not triggered by the failing call_usermodehelper_setup(), in this case
both __orderly_poweroff() and argv_cleanup() can do kfree().
Kill argv_cleanup() and change __orderly_poweroff() to call argv_free()
unconditionally like do_coredump() does. This info->cleanup() is not
needed (and wrong) since 6c0c0d4d "fix bug in orderly_poweroff() which
did the UMH_NO_WAIT => UMH_WAIT_EXEC change, we can rely on the fact
that CLONE_VFORK can't return until do_execve() succeeds/fails.

The prompt to enable DYNAMIC_FTRACE (the ability to nop and
enable function tracing at run time) had a confusing statement:
"enable/disable ftrace tracepoints dynamically"
This was written before tracepoints were added to the kernel,
but now that tracepoints have been added, this is very confusing
and has confused people enough to give wrong information during
presentations.
Not only that, I looked at the help text, and it still references
that dreaded daemon that use to wake up once a second to update
the nop locations and brick NICs, that hasn't been around for over
five years.
Time to bring the text up to the current decade.
