All architectures support copy_thread_tls() now, so remove the legacy copy_thread() function and the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS config option. Everyone uses the same process creation calling convention based on copy_thread_tls() and struct kernel_clone_args. This will make it easier to maintain the core process creation code under kernel/, simplifies the callpaths and makes the identical for all architectures. Cc: linux-arch@vger.kernel.org Acked-by:

Use the copy_thread_tls() calling convention which passes tls through a register. This is required so we can remove the copy_thread{_tls}() split and remove the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS macro. Cc: Guan Xuetao <gxt@pku.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: -

Now that all architectures have been switched to use _do_fork() and the new struct kernel_clone_args calling convention we can remove the legacy do_fork() helper completely. The calling convention used to be brittle and do_fork() didn't buy us anything. The only calling convention accepted should be based on struct kernel_clone_args going forward. It's cleaner and uniform.

This is part of a larger series that aims at getting rid of the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split that makes the process creation codepaths in the kernel more convoluted and error-prone than they need to be. I'm converting all the remaining arches that haven't yet switched and am collecting individual acks. Once I have them, I'll send the whole series removing the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split, the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS define and the legacy do_fork() helper. The only kernel-wide process creation entry point for anything not going directly through the syscall path will then be based on struct kernel_clone_args. No more danger of weird process creation abi quirks between architectures hopefully, and easier to maintain overall. It also unblocks implementing clone3() on architectures not support copy_thread_tls(). Any architecture that wants to implement clone3() will need to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and thus need to implement copy_thread_tls(). So both goals are connected but independently beneficial. HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS means that a given architecture supports CLONE_SETTLS and not setting it should usually mean that the architectures doesn't implement it but that's not how things are. In fact all architectures support CLONE_TLS it's just that they don't follow the calling convention that HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS implies. That means all architectures can be switched over to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. Once that is done we can remove that macro (yay, less code), the unnecessary do_fork() export in kernel/fork.c, and also rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread(). At this point copy_thread() becomes the main architecture specific part of process creation but it will be the same layout and calling convention for all architectures. (Once that is done we can probably cleanup each copy_thread() function even more but that's for the future.) Though h8300 doesn't not suppor the CLONE_SETTLS flag there's no reason to not switch to the copy_thread_tls() calling convention. As before CLONE_SETTLS with legacy clone will just be ignored. This brings us one step closer to getting rid of the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split we still have and ultimately the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS define in general. A lot of architectures have already converted and h8300 is one of the few hat haven't yet. This also unblocks implementing the clone3() syscall on h8300. Once that is done we can get of another ARCH_WANTS_* macro. Once Any architecture that supports HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS cannot call the do_fork() helper anymore. This is fine and intended since it should be removed in favor of the new, cleaner _do_fork() calling convention based on struct kernel_clone_args. In fact, most architectures have already switched. With this patch, h8300 joins the other arches which can't use the fork(), vfork(), clone(), clone3() syscalls directly and who follow the new process creation calling convention that is based on struct kernel_clone_args which we introduced a while back. This means less custom assembly in the architectures entry path to set up the registers before calling into the process creation helper and it is easier to to support new features without having to adapt calling conventions. It also unifies all process creation paths between fork(), vfork(), clone(), and clone3().

I don't know how to reasonably explain what happened but thanks to Adrian I'm now sitting at home next to a HP Integrity RX2600.

Now that both sparc and sparc64 support copy_thread_tls() and don't rely on do_fork() anymore, turn on HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS unconditionally. Once all architectures are switched over this macro will be removed and the old do_fork() calling convention fully abandoned in favor of the cleaner struct kernel_clone_args one. Signed-off-by:

As promised in the previous patch, this moves the process creation helpers into a common process.c file that is shared between sparc and sparc64. It allows us to get rid of quite a bit custom assembler and the to remove the separe 32bit specific sparc_do_fork() call. One thing to note, is that when clone() was called with a separate stack for the child the assembler would align it. But copy_thread() has always been doing that too so that line wasn't needed and can thus simply be removed. Signed-off-by:

Note that sparc can't easily call into the syscalls directly because of its return value conventions when a new process is created which needs to clobber the UREG_I1 register in copy_thread{_tls()} and it needs to restore it if process creation fails. That's not a big deal since the new process creation calling convention makes things simpler. This removes sparc_do_fork() and replaces it with 3 clean helpers, sparc_fork(), sparc_vfork(), and sparc_clone(). That means a little more C code until the next patch unifies sparc 32bit and sparc64. It has the advantage that we can remove quite a bit of assembler and it makes the whole syscall.S process creation bits easier to read. The follow-up patch will remove the custom sparc_do_fork() helper for 32bi sparc and move sparc_fork(), sparc_vfork(), and sparc_clone() into a common process.c file. This allows us to remove quite a bit of custom assembly form 32bit sparc's entry.S file too and allows to remove even more code because now all helpers are shared between 32bit sparc and sparc64 instead of having to maintain two separate sparc_do_fork() implementations.

This separate helper only existed to guarantee the mutual exclusivity of CLONE_PIDFD and CLONE_PARENT_SETTID for legacy clone since CLONE_PIDFD abuses the parent_tid field to return the pidfd. But we can actually handle this uniformely thus removing the helper. For legacy clone we can detect that CLONE_PIDFD is specified in conjunction with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID because they will share the same memory which is invalid and for clone3() setting the separate pidfd and parent_tid fields to the same memory is bogus as well. So fold that helper directly into _do_fork() by detecting this case.

This userspace program includes UAPI headers exported to usr/include/. 'make headers' always works for the target architecture (i.e. the same architecture as the kernel), so the sample program should be built for the target as well. Kbuild now supports 'userprogs' for that. I also guarded the CONFIG option by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK' because $(CC) may not provide libc. Signed-off-by:Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

The fileserver probe timer, net->fs_probe_timer, isn't cancelled when the kafs module is being removed and so the count it holds on net->servers_outstanding doesn't get dropped.. This causes rmmod to wait forever. The hung process shows a stack like: afs_purge_servers+0x1b5/0x23c [kafs] afs_net_exit+0x44/0x6e [kafs] ops_exit_list+0x72/0x93 unregister_pernet_operations+0x14c/0x1ba unregister_pernet_subsys+0x1d/0x2a afs_exit+0x29/0x6f [kafs] __do_sys_delete_module.isra.0+0x1a2/0x24b do_syscall_64+0x51/0x95 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Fix this by: (1) Attempting to cancel the probe timer and, if successful, drop the count that the timer was holding. (2) Make the timer function just drop the count and not schedule the prober if the afs portion of net namespace is being destroyed. Also, whilst we're at it, make the following changes: (3) Initialise net->servers_outstanding to 1 and decrement it before waiting on it so that it doesn't generate wake up events by being decremented to 0 until we're cleaning up. (4) Switch the atomic_dec() on ->servers_outstanding for ->fs_timer in afs_purge_servers() to use the helper function for that.

Fix afs_do_lookup()'s fallback case for when FS.InlineBulkStatus isn't supported by the server. In the fallback, it calls FS.FetchStatus for the specific vnode it's meant to be looking up. Commit b6489a49 broke this by renaming one of the two identically-named afs_fetch_status_operation descriptors to something else so that one of them could be made non-static. The site that used the renamed one, however, wasn't renamed and didn't produce any warning because the other was declared in a header. Fix this by making afs_do_lookup() use the renamed variant. Note that there are two variants of the success method because one is called from ->lookup() where we may or may not have an inode, but can't call iget until after we've talked to the server - whereas the other is called from within iget where we have an inode, but it may or may not be initialised. The latter variant expects there to be an inode, but because it's being called from there former case, there might not be - resulting in an oops like the following: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000b0 ...

Include the papr_scm health retrieval feature for v5.8-rc2. The functionality was initially posted well in advance of the merge window, but review comments and a late build-bot warning kept them out of the v5.8-rc1 libnvdimm pull request. Vaibhav notes: These patches are tied to specific features that were committed to customers in upcoming distros releases (RHEL and SLES) whose time-lines are tied to 5.8 kernel release. Being able to track the health of an nvdimm is critical for our customers that are running workloads leveraging papr-scm nvdimms.
