Qianfeng RongandMiquel Raynal 81eb13a19a mtd: use vmalloc_array and vcalloc to simplify code
Remove array_size() calls and replace vmalloc(array_size()) with
vmalloc_array() and vzalloc(array_size()) with vcalloc() to simplify
the code.

Compile-tested only.

Jocelyn Falempe 1f7ce4316d mtd: mtdoops: Fix kmsgdump parameter renaming.
When the kmsg_dumper callback parameter changed, the reason variable
in mtdoops_do_dump() was not updated accordingly.
This breaks the build with mtdoops.

Jocelyn Falempe e1a261ba59 printk: Add a short description string to kmsg_dump()
kmsg_dump doesn't forward the panic reason string to the kmsg_dumper
callback.
This patch adds a new struct kmsg_dump_detail, that will hold the
reason and description, and pass it to the dump() callback.

To avoid updating all kmsg_dump() call, it adds a kmsg_dump_desc()
function and a macro for backward compatibility.

I've written this for drm_panic, but it can be useful for other
kmsg_dumper.
It allows to see the panic reason, like "sysrq triggered crash"
or "VFS: Unable to mount root fs on xxxx" on the drm panic screen.

v2:
 * Use a struct kmsg_dump_detail to hold the reason and description
   pointer, for more flexibility if we want to add other parameters.
   (Kees Cook)
 * Fix powerpc/nvram_64 build, as I didn't update the forward
   declaration of oops_to_nvram()

The panic function disables the local interrupts, preemption, and all

calling schedule_work() to do it will not work. Instead, just call
mtdoops_erase function immediately.

- change printk(DEBUG) to pr_debug()
- change printk(WARNING) to pr_warn()
- change printk(ERR) to pr_err()

Note that only if dynamic debugging is enabled or DEBUG is defined,
printk(KERN_DEBUG) and pr_debug() are equivalent; Otherwise pr_debug()

John OgnessandPetr Mladek f9f3f02db9 printk: introduce a kmsg_dump iterator
Rather than storing the iterator information in the registered
kmsg_dumper structure, create a separate iterator structure. The
kmsg_dump_iter structure can reside on the stack of the caller, thus
allowing lockless use of the kmsg_dump functions.

Update code that accesses the kernel logs using the kmsg_dumper
structure to use the new kmsg_dump_iter structure. For kmsg_dumpers,
this also means adding a call to kmsg_dump_rewind() to initialize
the iterator.

All this is in preparation for removal of @logbuf_lock.

John OgnessandPetr Mladek 40ddbbac7f mtd: mtdoops: synchronize kmsg_dumper
The kmsg_dumper can be called from any context and CPU, possibly
from multiple CPUs simultaneously. Since the writing of the buffer
can occur from a later scheduled work queue, the oops buffer must
be protected against simultaneous dumping.

Use an atomic bit to mark when the buffer is protected. Release the
protection in between setting the buffer and the actual writing in
order for a possible panic (immediate write) to be written during
the scheduling of a previous oops (delayed write).

An atomic bit (rather than a spinlock) was chosen so that no
scheduling or preemption side-effects would be introduced. The MTD
kmsg_dumper may dump directly or it may be delayed (via scheduled
work). Depending on the context, different MTD callbacks are used.
For example, mtd_write() expects to be called in a non-atomic
context and may take a mutex.

Kees Cook 42bc47b353 treewide: Use array_size() in vmalloc()
The vmalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:

        vmalloc(a * b)

with:
        vmalloc(array_size(a, b))

as well as handling cases of:

        vmalloc(a * b * c)

with:

        vmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        vmalloc(4 * 1024)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Boris Brezillon 8f347c4232 mtd: Unconditionally update ->fail_addr and ->addr in part_erase()
->fail_addr and ->addr can be updated no matter the result of
parent->_erase(), we just need to remove the code doing the same thing
in mtd_erase_callback() to avoid adjusting those fields twice.

Note that this can be done because all MTD users have been converted to
not pass an erase_info->callback() and are thus only taking the
->addr_fail and ->addr fields into account after part_erase() has
returned.

While we're at it, get rid of the erase_info->mtd field which was only
needed to let mtd_erase_callback() get the partition device back.

Matthieu CASTETandArtem Bityutskiy cd409c6128 mtdoops: don't erase flash at each boot
The current version on mtdoops erase first block of mtdoops partition at each
boot if there is no oops stored in flash. This can wear the flash.

When mtdoops start, find_next_position is called to find the next free entry in
the circular buffer. But if the flash is erased, find_next_position don't find
anything (maxcount == 0xffffffff) and start with the first entry after erasing it.

The scanning that is done in find_next_position already track free/used entries.
So if at the end of the scanning we don't find anything, we can start at the
first entry and erased the entry only if it is marked as used.
Most of this is implemented in mtdoops_inc_counter, so to avoid duplicating
code, if we don't find anything we set position to -1. mtdoops_inc_counter with
increment it, erase the entry if needed and start as before with nextpage = 0
and nextcount = 1).

Also during the scan phase, we use the MTDOOPS_KERNMSG_MAGIC to detect corruped
entries.

flush[_delayed]_work_sync() are now spurious.  Mark them deprecated
and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work().

If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are
non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is
not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to
use the sync flushes at all and they're going away.

This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Kay SieversandGreg Kroah-Hartman e2ae715d66 kmsg - kmsg_dump() use iterator to receive log buffer content
Provide an iterator to receive the log buffer content, and convert all
kmsg_dump() users to it.

The structured data in the kmsg buffer now contains binary data, which
should no longer be copied verbatim to the kmsg_dump() users.

The iterator should provide reliable access to the buffer data, and also
supports proper log line-aware chunking of data while iterating.

WANG CongandLinus Torvalds a3dd332305 kexec: remove KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC
KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC is useless because we already save kernel messages inside
/proc/vmcore, and it is unsafe to allow modules to do other stuffs in a
crash dump scenario.
