Previously, in the userspace, it was possible to use the "setterm" command
from util-linux to blank the VT console by default, using the following
command.

According to the man page,

> The force option keeps the screen blank even if a key is pressed.

It was implemented by calling TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN.

	case BLANKSCREEN:
		ioctlarg = TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN;
		if (ioctl(STDIN_FILENO, TIOCLINUX, &ioctlarg))
			warn(_("cannot force blank"));
		break;

However, after Linux 4.12, this command ceased to work anymore, which is
unexpected. By inspecting the kernel source, it shows that the issue was
triggered by the side-effect from commit a4199f5e ("tty: Disable
default console blanking interval").

The console blanking is implemented by function do_blank_screen() in vt.c:
"blank_state" will be initialized to "blank_normal_wait" in con_init() if
AND ONLY IF ("blankinterval" > 0). If "blankinterval" is 0, "blank_state"
will be "blank_off" (== 0), and a call to do_blank_screen() will always
abort, even if a forced blanking is required from the user by calling
TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN, the console won't be blanked.

This behavior is unexpected from a user's point-of-view, since it's not
mentioned in any documentation. The setterm man page suggests it will
always work, and the kernel comments in uapi/linux/tiocl.h says

> /* keep screen blank even if a key is pressed */
> #define TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN 14

To fix it, we simply remove the "blank_state != blank_off" check, as
pointed out by Nicolas Pitre, this check doesn't logically make sense
and it's safe to remove.

The bug manifests on systemd systems with multiple vtcon devices:
  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/vtconsole/vtcon0/name
  (S) dummy device
  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/vtconsole/vtcon1/name
  (M) frame buffer device

There systemd runs 'loadkeys' tool in tapallel for each vtcon
instance. This causes two parallel ioctl(KDSKBSENT) calls to
race into adding the same entry into 'func_table' array at:

    drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:vt_do_kdgkb_ioctl()

The function has no locking around writes to 'func_table'.

The simplest reproducer is to have initrams with the following
init on a 8-CPU machine x86_64:

    #!/bin/sh

    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &

    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &
    wait

The change adds lock on write path only. Reads are still racy.

Systems which don't provide arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() will
invoke showacpu() from a smp_call_function() function which is invoked
with disabled interrupts even on -RT systems.

The function acquires the show_lock lock which only purpose is to
ensure that the CPUs don't print simultaneously. Otherwise the
output would clash and it would be hard to tell the output from CPUx
apart from CPUy.

On -RT the spin_lock() can not be acquired from this context. A
raw_spin_lock() is required. It will introduce the system's latency
by performing the sysrq request and other CPUs will block on the lock
until the request is done. This is okay because the user asked for a
backtrace of all active CPUs and under "normal circumstances in
production" this path should not be triggered.

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include".  We don't
need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.

Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
recursively expanded.

On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.

Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
old) commit e8f5bdb0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
someone else (out of tree?) was setting it.  I presume later since if
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would
have just removed the ":".

The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device
structure, we should release that reference.
The implementation of this semantic code search is:
In a function, for a local variable returned by calling
of_find_device_by_node(),
a, if it is released by a function such as
   put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use,
   it is considered that there is no reference leak;
b, if it is passed back to the caller via
   dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the
   reference will be released in other functions, and the current function
   also considers that there is no reference leak;
c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the
   reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the
   corresponding error message.

By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks,
such as:
commit 11907e9d ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in
fsl_asoc_card_probe")
commit a12085d1 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak")
commit 11493f26 ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak")

There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code.

Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also
have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to
further check the reference leak.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
 "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
  as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
  will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
  the processes they refer to.

  With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
  pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
  its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
  to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.

  With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
  example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
  process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
  parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
  rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
  in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
  process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
  quite handy.

  There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
  management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
  and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
  suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
  most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
  the future once they are needed.

  This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
  caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
  functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
  a pidfd.

  Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
  cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
 "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
  "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
  the core-mm as "System RAM".

  Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
  memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
  differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
  typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
  allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
  model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
  RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
  it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
  generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
  purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
  used to restore the memory assignment.

  One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps
  data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable
  NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents
  at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced
  requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution /
  administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that
  lack security capable NVDIMMs.

  Summary:

   - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and
     include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI.

   - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range

   - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax
     address-range to the core-mm.

   - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the
     newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis"

NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because
we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about
accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks
inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some
(not described) circumstances.

And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular
RAM.  The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily
get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for
the user space tooling.

Quoting Dan from another email:
 "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for
  and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling
  for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime
  notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from
  background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the
  kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile
  case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2.

  I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by
  tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM
  making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in
  the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's
  possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active
  application coordination"
