      tracing/events: Add __vstring() and __assign_vstr() helper macros · 0563231f
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      There's several places that open code the following logic:

  TP_STRUCT__entry(__dynamic_array(char, msg, MSG_MAX)),
  TP_fast_assign(vsnprintf(__get_str(msg), MSG_MAX, vaf->fmt, *vaf->va);)

To load a string created by variable array va_list.

The main issue with this approach is that "MSG_MAX" usage in the
__dynamic_array() portion. That actually just reserves the MSG_MAX in the
event, and even wastes space because there's dynamic meta data also saved
in the event to denote the offset and size of the dynamic array. It would
have been better to just use a static __array() field.

Instead, create __vstring() and __assign_vstr() that work like __string
and __assign_str() but instead of taking a destination string to copy,
take a format string and a va_list pointer and fill in the values.

It uses the helper:

 #define __trace_event_vstr_len(fmt, va)		\
 ({							\
	va_list __ap;					\
	int __ret;					\
							\
	va_copy(__ap, *(va));				\
	__ret = vsnprintf(NULL, 0, fmt, __ap) + 1;	\
	va_end(__ap);					\
							\
	min(__ret, TRACE_EVENT_STR_MAX);		\
 })

To figure out the length to store the string. It may be slightly slower as
it needs to run the vsnprintf() twice, but it now saves space on the ring
buffer.

      neighbor: tracing: Have neigh_create event use __string() · 43b2aef3
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      The dev field of the neigh_create event uses __dynamic_array() with a
fixed size, which defeats the purpose of __dynamic_array(). Looking at the
logic, as it already uses __assign_str(), just use the same logic in
__string to create the size needed. It appears that because "dev" can be
NULL, it needs the check. But __string() can have the same checks as
__assign_str() so use them there too.

      tracing/ipv4/ipv6: Use static array for name field in fib*_lookup_table event · fca8300f
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      The fib_lookup_table and fib6_lookup_table events declare name as a
dynamic_array, but also give it a fixed size, which defeats the purpose of
the dynamic array, especially since the dynamic array also includes meta
data in the event to specify its size.

Since the size of the name is at most 16 bytes (defined by IFNAMSIZ),
it is not worth spending the effort to determine the size of the string.

Just use a fixed size array and copy into it. This will save 4 bytes that
are used for the meta data that saves the size and position of a dynamic
array, and even slightly speed up the event processing.

      lockref: remove unused 'lockref_get_or_lock()' function · b8d5109f
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Looking at the conditional lock acquire functions in the kernel due to
the new sparse support (see commit 4a557a5d "sparse: introduce
conditional lock acquire function attribute"), it became obvious that
the lockref code has a couple of them, but they don't match the usual
naming convention for the other ones, and their return value logic is
also reversed.

In the other very similar places, the naming pattern is '*_and_lock()'
(eg 'atomic_put_and_lock()' and 'refcount_dec_and_lock()'), and the
function returns true when the lock is taken.

The lockref code is superficially very similar to the refcount code,
only with the special "atomic wrt the embedded lock" semantics.  But
instead of the '*_and_lock()' naming it uses '*_or_lock()'.

And instead of returning true in case it took the lock, it returns true
if it *didn't* take the lock.

Now, arguably the reflock code is quite logical: it really is a "either
decrement _or_ lock" kind of situation - and the return value is about
whether the operation succeeded without any special care needed.

So despite the similarities, the differences do make some sense, and
maybe it's not worth trying to unify the different conditional locking
primitives in this area.

But while looking at this all, it did become obvious that the
'lockref_get_or_lock()' function hasn't actually had any users for
almost a decade.

The only user it ever had was the shortlived 'd_rcu_to_refcount()'
function, and it got removed and replaced with 'lockref_get_not_dead()'
back in 2013 in commits 0d98439e ("vfs: use lockred 'dead' flag to
mark unrecoverably dead dentries") and e5c832d5 ("vfs: fix dentry
RCU to refcounting possibly sleeping dput()")

In fact, that single use was removed less than a week after the whole
function was introduced in commit b3abd802 ("lockref: add
'lockref_get_or_lock() helper") so this function has been around for a
decade, but only had a user for six days.

Let's just put this mis-designed and unused function out of its misery.

We can think about the naming and semantic oddities of the remaining
'lockref_put_or_lock()' later, but at least that function has users.

And while the naming is different and the return value doesn't match,
that function matches the whole '{atomic,refcount}_dec_and_test()'
pattern much better (ie the magic happens when the count goes down to
zero, not when it is incremented from zero).

      sparse: introduce conditional lock acquire function attribute · 4a557a5d
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The kernel tends to try to avoid conditional locking semantics because
it makes it harder to think about and statically check locking rules,
but we do have a few fundamental locking primitives that take locks
conditionally - most obviously the 'trylock' functions.

That has always been a problem for 'sparse' checking for locking
imbalance, and we've had a special '__cond_lock()' macro that we've used
to let sparse know how the locking works:

    # define __cond_lock(x,c)        ((c) ? ({ __acquire(x); 1; }) : 0)

so that you can then use this to tell sparse that (for example) the
spinlock trylock macro ends up acquiring the lock when it succeeds, but
not when it fails:

    #define raw_spin_trylock(lock)  __cond_lock(lock, _raw_spin_trylock(lock))

and then sparse can follow along the locking rules when you have code like

        if (!spin_trylock(&dentry->d_lock))
                return LRU_SKIP;
	.. sparse sees that the lock is held here..
        spin_unlock(&dentry->d_lock);

and sparse ends up happy about the lock contexts.

However, this '__cond_lock()' use does result in very ugly header files,
and requires you to basically wrap the real function with that macro
that uses '__cond_lock'.  Which has made PeterZ NAK things that try to
fix sparse warnings over the years [1].

To solve this, there is now a very experimental patch to sparse that
basically does the exact same thing as '__cond_lock()' did, but using a
function attribute instead.  That seems to make PeterZ happy [2].

Note that this does not replace existing use of '__cond_lock()', but
only exposes the new proposed attribute and uses it for the previously
unannotated 'refcount_dec_and_lock()' family of functions.

For existing sparse installations, this will make no difference (a
negative output context was ignored), but if you have the experimental
sparse patch it will make sparse now understand code that uses those
functions, the same way '__cond_lock()' makes sparse understand the very
similar 'atomic_dec_and_lock()' uses that have the old '__cond_lock()'
annotations.

Note that in some cases this will silence existing context imbalance
warnings.  But in other cases it may end up exposing new sparse warnings
for code that sparse just didn't see the locking for at all before.

This is a trial, in other words.  I'd expect that if it ends up being
successful, and new sparse releases end up having this new attribute,
we'll migrate the old-style '__cond_lock()' users to use the new-style
'__cond_acquires' function attribute.

The actual experimental sparse patch was posted in [3].
