On a system with low memory extracting the initramfs may fail. If this
happens the user gets "Failed to execute /init" instead of an initramfs
error.
Check return value of sys_write and call error() when the write was

Now with 64bit bzImage and kexec tools, we support ramdisk that size is
bigger than 2g, as we could put it above 4G.
Found compressed initramfs image could not be decompressed properly. It
turns out that image length is int during decompress detection, and it
will become < 0 when length is more than 2G. Furthermore, during
decompressing len as int is used for inbuf count, that has problem too.
Change len to long, that should be ok as on 32 bit platform long is
32bits.
Tested with following compressed initramfs image as root with kexec.
gzip, bzip2, xz, lzma, lzop, lz4.

When initrd (compressed or not) is used, kernel report data corrupted with
/dev/ram0.
The root cause:
During initramfs checking, if it is initrd, it will be transferred to
/initrd.image with sys_write.
sys_write only support 2G-4K write, so if the initrd ram is more than
that, /initrd.image will not complete at all.
Add local xwrite to loop calling sys_write to workaround the problem.
Also need to use xwrite in write_buffer() to handle:
image is uncompressed cpio and there is one big file (>2G) in it.
unpack_to_rootfs ===> write_buffer ===> actions[]/do_copy
At the same time, we don't need to worry about sys_read/sys_write in
do_mounts_rd.c::crd_load. As decompressor will have fill/flush and local
buffer that is smaller than 2G.
Test with uncompressed initrd, and compressed ones with gz, bz2, lzma,xz,
lzop.

This patch adds default module loading and uses it to load the default
block elevator. During boot, it's called right after initramfs or
initrd is made available and right before control is passed to
userland. This ensures that as long as the modules are available in
the usual places in initramfs, initrd or the root filesystem, the
default modules are loaded as soon as possible.
This will replace the on-demand elevator module loading from elevator
init path.

The init/mount.o source files produce a number of sparse warnings of the
type:
warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
expected char [noderef] <asn:1>*dev_name
got char *name
This is due to the syscalls expecting some of the arguments to be user
pointers but they are being passed as kernel pointers. This is harmless
but adds a lot of noise to a sparse build.
To limit the noise just disable the sparse checking in the relevant source
files, but still display a warning so that the user knows this has been
done.
Since the sparse checking has been disabled we can also remove the __user
__force casts that are scattered thru the source.

The size of a built-in initramfs is calculated in init/initramfs.c by
"__initramfs_end - __initramfs_start". Those symbols are defined in the
linker script include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h:
#define INIT_RAM_FS \
. = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE); \
VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__initramfs_start) = .; \
*(.init.ramfs) \
VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__initramfs_end) = .;
If the initramfs file has an odd number of bytes, the "__initramfs_end"
symbol points to an odd address, for example, the symbols in the
System.map might look like:
0000000000572000 T __initramfs_start
00000000005bcd05 T __initramfs_end <-- odd address
At least on s390 this causes a problem:
Certain s390 instructions, especially instructions for loading addresses
(larl) or branch addresses must be on even addresses. The compiler loads
the symbol addresses with the "larl" instruction. This instruction sets
the last bit to 0 and, therefore, for odd size files, the calculated size
is one byte less than it should be:
0000000000540a9c <populate_rootfs>:
540a9c: eb cf f0 78 00 24 stmg %r12,%r15,120(%r15),
540aa2: c0 10 00 01 8a af larl %r1,572000 <__initramfs_start>
540aa8: c0 c0 00 03 e1 2e larl %r12,5bcd04 <initramfs_end>
(Instead of 5bcd05)
...
540abe: 1b c1 sr %r12,%r1
To fix the problem, this patch introduces the global variable
__initramfs_size, which is calculated in the "usr/initramfs_data.S" file.
The populate_rootfs() function can then use the start marker of the
.init.ramfs section and the value of __initramfs_size for loading the
initramfs. Because the start marker and size is sufficient, the
__initramfs_end symbol is no longer needed and is removed.

The unpack routine fails to handle the decompress_method() returning
unrecognised decompressor (compress_name == NULL). This results in the
routine looping eventually oopsing on an out of bounds memory access.
Note this bug is usually hidden, only triggering on trailing junk after
one or more correct compressed blocks. The case of the compressed archive
being complete junk is (by accident?) caught by the if (state != Reset)
check because state is initialised to Start, but not updated due to the
decompressor not having been called. Obviously if the junk is trailing a
correctly decompressed buffer, state == Reset from the previous call to
the decompressor.

The decompressors return error by calling a supplied error function, and/or
by returning an error return value. The initramfs code, however, fails to
check the exit code returned by the decompressor, and only checks the error
status set by calling the error function.
This patch adds a return code check and calls the error function.

With the removal of duplicate unpack_to_rootfs() (commit
df52092f3c) the messages displayed do not
actually correspond to what the kernel is doing. In addition, depending
if ramdisks are supported or not, the messages are not at all the same.
So keep the messages more in sync with what is really doing the kernel,
and only display a second message in case of failure. This also ensure
that the printk message cannot be split by other printk's.

Change cb6ff20807 ("NOMMU: Support XIP on
initramfs") seems to have broken booting from initramfs with /sbin/init
being a hardlink.
It seems like the logic required for XIP on nommu, i.e. ftruncate to
reported cpio header file size (body_len) is broken for hardlinks, which
have a reported size of 0, and the truncate thus nukes the contents of the
file (in my case busybox), making boot impossible and ending with runaway
loop modprobe binfmt-0000 - and of course 0000 is not a valid binary
format.
My fix is to only call ftruncate if size is non-zero which fixes things
for me, but I'm not certain whether this will break XIP for those files on
nommu systems, although I would guess not.

initramfs uses printk without a linefeed, then does some work, then uses
printk to finish the message off. However if some other code does a
printk in between, then the messages get mixed together. Better for each
message to be an independent line...

Impact: More consistent behaviour, avoid policy in the kernel
Upgrade/downgrade initrd/initramfs decompression failure from
inconsistently a panic or a KERN_ALERT message to a KERN_EMERG event.
It is, however, possible do design a system which can recover from
this (using the kernel builtin code and/or the internal initramfs),
which means this is policy, not a technical necessity.
A good way to handle this would be to have a panic-level=X option, to
force a panic on a printk above a certain level. That is a separate
patch, however.
