There are a couple of seq_files which use the single_open() interface.
This interface requires that the whole output must fit into a single
buffer.
E.g. for /proc/stat allocation failures have been observed because an
order-4 memory allocation failed due to memory fragmentation. In such
situations reading /proc/stat is not possible anymore.
Therefore change the seq_file code to fallback to vmalloc allocations
which will usually result in a couple of order-0 allocations and hence
also work if memory is fragmented.
For reference a call trace where reading from /proc/stat failed:

There are several users who want to know bytes written by seq_*() for
alignment purpose. Currently they are using %n format for knowing it
because seq_*() returns 0 on success.
This patch introduces seq_setwidth() and seq_pad() for allowing them to
align without using %n format.

This issue was first pointed out by Jiaxing Wang several months ago, but no
further comments:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/29/41
As we know pread() does not change f_pos, so after pread(), file->f_pos
and m->read_pos become different. And seq_lseek() does not update file->f_pos
if offset equals to m->read_pos, so after pread() and seq_lseek()(lseek to
m->read_pos), then a subsequent read may read from a wrong position, the
following program produces the problem:
char str1[32] = { 0 };
char str2[32] = { 0 };
int poffset = 10;
int count = 20;
/*open any seq file*/
int fd = open("/proc/modules", O_RDONLY);
pread(fd, str1, count, poffset);
printf("pread:%s\n", str1);
/*seek to where m->read_pos is*/
lseek(fd, poffset+count, SEEK_SET);
/*supposed to read from poffset+count, but this read from position 0*/
read(fd, str2, count);
printf("read:%s\n", str2);
out put:
pread:
ck_netbios_ns 12665
read:
nf_conntrack_netbios
/proc/modules:
nf_conntrack_netbios_ns 12665 0 - Live 0xffffffffa038b000
nf_conntrack_broadcast 12589 1 nf_conntrack_netbios_ns, Live 0xffffffffa0386000
So we always update file->f_pos to offset in seq_lseek() to fix this issue.

Same as single_open(), but preallocates the buffer of given size.
Doesn't make any sense for sizes up to PAGE_SIZE and doesn't make
sense if output of show() exceeds PAGE_SIZE only rarely - seq_read()
will take care of growing the buffer and redoing show(). If you
_know_ that it will be large, it might make more sense to look into
saner iterator, rather than go with single-shot one. If that's
impossible, single_open_size() might be for you.
Again, don't use that without a good reason; occasionally that's really
the best way to go, but very often there are better solutions.

struct file already has a user namespace associated with it
in file->f_cred->user_ns, unfortunately because struct
seq_file has no struct file backpointer associated with
it, it is difficult to get at the user namespace in seq_file
context. Therefore add a helper function seq_user_ns to return
the associated user namespace and a user_ns field to struct
seq_file to be used in implementing seq_user_ns.

These are trivial in scope vs the work done previously. We now have
things where any few remaining cleanups can be farmed out to arch or
subsystem maintainers, and I have done so when possible. What is
remaining here represents the bits that don't clearly lie within a
single arch/subsystem boundary, like the fs dir and the lib dir.
Some duplicate includes arising from overlapping fixes from
independent subsystem maintainer submissions are also quashed."

It is undocumented but a seq_file's overflow state is indicated by
m->count == m->size. Add seq_set_overflow() and seq_overflow() to

Process accounting applications as top, ps visit some files under

- allow delimiter == 0.
- convert seq_printf() to seq_put_decimal_ull/ll in /proc/stat, statm.

The following program illustrates the problem:
char buf[8192];
int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY);
n = pread(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
printf("%d\n", n);
/* lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR); */ /* Uncomment to work around */
n = pread(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
printf("%d\n", n);
The second printf() prints zero, but uncommenting the lseek() corrects its
behaviour.
To fix, make seq_read() mirror seq_lseek() when processing changes in
*ppos. Restore m->version first, then if required traverse and update
read_pos on success.

__d_path() API is asking for trouble and in case of apparmor d_namespace_path()
getting just that. The root cause is that when __d_path() misses the root
it had been told to look for, it stores the location of the most remote ancestor
in *root. Without grabbing references. Sure, at the moment of call it had
been pinned down by what we have in *path. And if we raced with umount -l, we
could have very well stopped at vfsmount/dentry that got freed as soon as
prepend_path() dropped vfsmount_lock.
It is safe to compare these pointers with pre-existing (and known to be still
alive) vfsmount and dentry, as long as all we are asking is "is it the same
address?". Dereferencing is not safe and apparmor ended up stepping into
that. d_namespace_path() really wants to examine the place where we stopped,
even if it's not connected to our namespace. As the result, it looked
at ->d_sb->s_magic of a dentry that might've been already freed by that point.
All other callers had been careful enough to avoid that, but it's really
a bad interface - it invites that kind of trouble.
The fix is fairly straightforward, even though it's bigger than I'd like:
* prepend_path() root argument becomes const.
* __d_path() is never called with NULL/NULL root. It was a kludge
to start with. Instead, we have an explicit function - d_absolute_root().
Same as __d_path(), except that it doesn't get root passed and stops where
it stops. apparmor and tomoyo are using it.
* __d_path() returns NULL on path outside of root. The main
caller is show_mountinfo() and that's precisely what we pass root for - to
skip those outside chroot jail. Those who don't want that can (and do)
use d_path().
* __d_path() root argument becomes const. Everyone agrees, I hope.
* apparmor does *NOT* try to use __d_path() or any of its variants
when it sees that path->mnt is an internal vfsmount. In that case it's
definitely not mounted anywhere and dentry_path() is exactly what we want
there. Handling of sysctl()-triggered weirdness is moved to that place.
* if apparmor is asked to do pathname relative to chroot jail
and __d_path() tells it we it's not in that jail, the sucker just calls
d_absolute_path() instead. That's the other remaining caller of __d_path(),
BTW.
* seq_path_root() does _NOT_ return -ENAMETOOLONG (it's stupid anyway -
the normal seq_file logics will take care of growing the buffer and redoing
the call of ->show() just fine). However, if it gets path not reachable
from root, it returns SEQ_SKIP. The only caller adjusted (i.e. stopped
ignoring the return value as it used to do).
