"A few commits splitting the KASAN instrumented bitops header in three,
to match the split of the asm-generic bitops headers.
This is needed on powerpc because we use the generic bitops for the

assume all the underlying operations are provided by the arch as
arch_foo() versions.

docs/core-api: Remove possibly confusing sub-headings from Bit Operations
powerpc: support KASAN instrumentation of bitops
kasan: support instrumented bitops combined with generic bitops
The recent commit 81d2c6f819 ("kasan: support instrumented bitops
combined with generic bitops"), split the KASAN instrumented bitops
into separate headers for atomic, non-atomic and locking operations.
This was done to allow arches to include just the instrumented bitops
they need, while also using some of the generic bitops in
asm-generic/bitops (which are automatically instrumented). The generic
bitops are already split into atomic, non-atomic and locking headers.
This split required an update to kernel-api.rst because it included
include/asm-generic/bitops-instrumented.h, which no longer exists. So
now kernel-api.rst includes all three instrumented headers to get the
definitions for all the bitops.
When adding the three headers it seemed sensible to add sub-headings
for each, ie. "Atomic", "Non-atomic" and "Locking".
The confusion is that test_bit() is (and always has been) in
non-atomic.h, but is documented elsewhere (atomic_bitops.txt) as being
atomic. So having it appear under the "Non-atomic" heading is possibly
confusing.
Probably test_bit() should move from bitops/non-atomic.h to atomic.h,
but that has flow on effects. For now just remove the newly added
sub-headings in the documentation, so we at least aren't adding to the
confusion about whether test_bit() is atomic or not.

Currently bitops-instrumented.h assumes that the architecture provides
atomic, non-atomic and locking bitops (e.g. both set_bit and __set_bit).
This is true on x86 and s390, but is not always true: there is a
generic bitops/non-atomic.h header that provides generic non-atomic
operations, and also a generic bitops/lock.h for locking operations.
powerpc uses the generic non-atomic version, so it does not have it's
own e.g. __set_bit that could be renamed arch___set_bit.
Split up bitops-instrumented.h to mirror the atomic/non-atomic/lock
split. This allows arches to only include the headers where they
have arch-specific versions to rename. Update x86 and s390.
(The generic operations are automatically instrumented because they're
written in C, not asm.)

It has been suggested several times to extend vsnprintf() to be able
to convert the numeric value of ENOSPC to print "ENOSPC". This
implements that as a %p extension: With %pe, one can do
if (IS_ERR(foo)) {
pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %pe\n", foo);
return PTR_ERR(foo);
}
instead of what is seen in quite a few places in the kernel:
if (IS_ERR(foo)) {
pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(foo));
return PTR_ERR(foo);
}
If the value passed to %pe is an ERR_PTR, but the library function
errname() added here doesn't know about the value, the value is simply
printed in decimal. If the value passed to %pe is not an ERR_PTR, we
treat it as an ordinary %p and thus print the hashed value (passing
non-ERR_PTR values to %pe indicates a bug in the caller, but we can't
do much about that).
With my embedded hat on, and because it's not very invasive to do,
I've made it possible to remove this. The errname() function and
associated lookup tables take up about 3K. For most, that's probably
quite acceptable and a price worth paying for more readable
dmesg (once this starts getting used), while for those that disable
printk() it's of very little use - I don't see a
procfs/sysfs/seq_printf() file reasonably making use of this - and
they clearly want to squeeze vmlinux as much as possible. Hence the
default y if PRINTK.
The symbols to include have been found by massaging the output of
find arch include -iname 'errno*.h' | xargs grep -E 'define\s*E'
In the cases where some common aliasing exists
(e.g. EAGAIN=EWOULDBLOCK on all platforms, EDEADLOCK=EDEADLK on most),
I've moved the more popular one (in terms of 'git grep -w Efoo | wc)
to the bottom so that one takes precedence.

In most configurations, kmalloc() happens to return naturally aligned
(i.e. aligned to the block size itself) blocks for power of two sizes.
That means some kmalloc() users might unknowingly rely on that
alignment, until stuff breaks when the kernel is built with e.g.
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG or CONFIG_SLOB, and blocks stop being aligned. Then
developers have to devise workaround such as own kmem caches with
specified alignment [1], which is not always practical, as recently
evidenced in [2].
The topic has been discussed at LSF/MM 2019 [3]. Adding a
'kmalloc_aligned()' variant would not help with code unknowingly relying
on the implicit alignment. For slab implementations it would either
require creating more kmalloc caches, or allocate a larger size and only
give back part of it. That would be wasteful, especially with a generic
alignment parameter (in contrast with a fixed alignment to size).
Ideally we should provide to mm users what they need without difficult
workarounds or own reimplementations, so let's make the kmalloc()
alignment to size explicitly guaranteed for power-of-two sizes under all
configurations. What this means for the three available allocators?
* SLAB object layout happens to be mostly unchanged by the patch. The
implicitly provided alignment could be compromised with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB due to redzoning, however SLAB disables redzoning for
caches with alignment larger than unsigned long long. Practically on at
least x86 this includes kmalloc caches as they use cache line alignment,
which is larger than that. Still, this patch ensures alignment on all
arches and cache sizes.
* SLUB layout is also unchanged unless redzoning is enabled through
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and boot parameter for the particular kmalloc cache.
With this patch, explicit alignment is guaranteed with redzoning as
well. This will result in more memory being wasted, but that should be
acceptable in a debugging scenario.
* SLOB has no implicit alignment so this patch adds it explicitly for
kmalloc(). The potential downside is increased fragmentation. While
pathological allocation scenarios are certainly possible, in my testing,
after booting a x86_64 kernel+userspace with virtme, around 16MB memory
was consumed by slab pages both before and after the patch, with
difference in the noise.
