      Pull UBI/UBIFS updates from Richard Weinberger:
       "This pull request contains:
      
         - Fixes for both UBI and UBIFS
         - overlayfs support (O_TMPFILE, RENAME_WHITEOUT/EXCHANGE)
         - Code refactoring for the upcoming MLC support"
      
      [ Ugh, we just got rid of the "rename2()" naming for the extended rename
        functionality. And this re-introduces it in ubifs with the cross-
        renaming and whiteout support.
      
        But rather than do any re-organizations in the merge itself, the
        naming can be cleaned up later ]

           affects reliability. Upper layers (e.g., UBI) should make use of

      looking for duplicate ->iov_base makes sense only for

      for bvec-backed ones it's pointless and broken on 32bit (we
      walk through an array of struct bio_vec accessing them as if
      they were struct iovec; works by accident on 64bit, but on
      32bit it'll blow up) and for pipe-backed ones it's pointless
      and ends up oopsing.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Merge my system logging cleanups, triggered by the broken '\n' patches.
      
      The line continuation handling has been broken basically forever, and
      the code to handle the system log records was both confusing and
      dubious.  And it would do entirely the wrong thing unless you always had
      a terminating newline, partly because it couldn't actually see whether a
      message was marked KERN_CONT or not (but partly because the LOG_CONT
      handling in the recording code was rather confusing too).
      
      This re-introduces a real semantically meaningful KERN_CONT, and fixes
      the few places I noticed where it was missing.  There are probably more
      missing cases, since KERN_CONT hasn't actually had any semantic meaning
      for at least four years (other than the checkpatch meaning of "no log
      level necessary, this is a continuation line").
      
      This also allows the combination of KERN_CONT and a log level.  In that
      case the log level will be ignored if the merging with a previous line
      is successful, but if a new record is needed, that new record will now
      get the right log level.
      
      That also means that you can at least in theory combine KERN_CONT with
      the "pr_info()" style helpers, although any use of pr_fmt() prefixing
      would make that just result in a mess, of course (the prefix would end
      up in the middle of a continuing line).
      
      * printk-cleanups:
        printk: make reading the kernel log flush pending lines
        printk: re-organize log_output() to be more legible
        printk: split out core logging code into helper function
        printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines

      dlm: free workqueues after the connections · 3a8db798
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
      After backporting commit ee44b4bc ("dlm: use sctp 1-to-1 API")
      series to a kernel with an older workqueue which didn't use RCU yet, it
      was noticed that we are freeing the workqueues in dlm_lowcomms_stop()
      too early as free_conn() will try to access that memory for canceling
      the queued works if any.
      
      This issue was introduced by commit 0d737a8c as before it such
      attempt to cancel the queued works wasn't performed, so the issue was
      not present.
      
      This patch fixes it by simply inverting the free order.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      That will mean that any possible subsequent continuation will now be
      broken up onto a line of its own (since reading the log has finalized
      the beginning og the line), but if user space has activated system
      logging (or if there's a kernel message dump going on) that is the right
      thing to do.
      
      And now that we actually get the continuation flags _right_ for this
      all, the user space logger that is reading the kernel messages can
      actually see the continuation marker.  Not that anybody seems to really
      bother with it (or care), but in theory user space can do its own
      message stitching.

      This also stops the continuation flushing from just using random record
      flags for the flushing action, instead taking the flags from the proper
      original line and updating them as we add continuations to it.

      printk: split out core logging code into helper function · c362c7ff
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The code that actually decides how to log the message (whether to put it
      directly into the record log, whether to append it to an existing
      buffered log, or whether to start a new buffered log) is fairly
      non-obvious code in the middle of the vprintk_emit() function.
      
      Splitting that code up into a helper function makes it easier to
      understand, but perhaps more importantly also allows for the code to
      just return early out of the helper function once it has made the
      decision about where the new log content goes.

      printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines · 4bcc595c
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Long long ago the kernel log buffer was a buffered stream of bytes, very
      much like stdio in user space.  It supported log levels by scanning the
      stream and noticing the log level markers at the beginning of each line,
      but if you wanted to print a partial line in multiple chunks, you just
      did multiple printk() calls, and it just automatically worked.
      
      Except when it didn't, and you had very confusing output when different
      lines got all mixed up with each other.  Then you got fragment lines
      mixing with each other, or with non-fragment lines, because it was
      traditionally impossible to tell whether a printk() call was a
      continuation or not.
      
      To at least help clarify the issue of continuation lines, we added a
      KERN_CONT marker back in 2007 to mark continuation lines:
      
        47492527 ("printk: add KERN_CONT annotation").
      
      That continuation marker was initially an empty string, and didn't
      actuall make any semantic difference.  But it at least made it possible
      to annotate the source code, and have check-patch notice that a printk()
      didn't need or want a log level marker, because it was a continuation of
      a previous line.
      
      To avoid the ambiguity between a continuation line that had that
      KERN_CONT marker, and a printk with no level information at all, we then
      in 2009 made KERN_CONT be a real log level marker which meant that we
      could now reliably tell the difference between the two cases.
      
        5fd29d6c ("printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines")
      
      and we could take advantage of that to make sure we didn't mix up
      continuation lines with lines that just didn't have any loglevel at all.
      
      Then, in 2012, the kernel log buffer was changed to be a "record" based
      log, where each line was a record that has a loglevel and a timestamp.
      
      You can see the beginning of that conversion in commits
      
        e11fea92 ("kmsg: export printk records to the /dev/kmsg interface")
        7ff9554b ("printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer")
      
      with a number of follow-up commits to fix some painful fallout from that
      conversion.  Over all, it took a couple of months to sort out most of
      it.  But the upside was that you could have concurrent readers (and
      writers) of the kernel log and not have lines with mixed output in them.
      
      And one particular pain-point for the record-based kernel logging was
      exactly the fragmentary lines that are generated in smaller chunks.  In
      order to still log them as one recrod, the continuation lines need to be
      attached to the previous record properly.
      
      However the explicit continuation record marker that is actually useful
      for this exact case was actually removed in aroundm the same time by commit
      
        61e99ab8 ("printk: remove the now unnecessary "C" annotation for KERN_CONT")
      
      due to the incorrect belief that KERN_CONT wasn't meaningful.  The
      ambiguity between "is this a continuation line" or "is this a plain
      printk with no log level information" was reintroduced, and in fact
      became an even bigger pain point because there was now the whole
      record-level merging of kernel messages going on.
      
      This patch reinstates the KERN_CONT as a real non-empty string marker,
      so that the ambiguity is fixed once again.
      
      But it's not a plain revert of that original removal: in the four years
      since we made KERN_CONT an empty string again, not only has the format
      of the log level markers changed, we've also had some usage changes in
      this area.
      
      For example, some ACPI code seems to use KERN_CONT _together_ with a log
      level, and now uses both the KERN_CONT marker and (for example) a
      KERN_INFO marker to show that it's an informational continuation of a
      line.
      
      Which is actually not a bad idea - if the continuation line cannot be
      attached to its predecessor, without the log level information we don't
      know what log level to assign to it (and we traditionally just assigned
      it the default loglevel).  So having both a log level and the KERN_CONT
      marker is not necessarily a bad idea, but it does mean that we need to
      actually iterate over potentially multiple markers, rather than just a
      single one.
      
      Also, since KERN_CONT was still conceptually needed, and encouraged, but
      didn't actually _do_ anything, we've also had the reverse problem:
      rather than having too many annotations it has too few, and there is bit
      rot with code that no longer marks the continuation lines with the
      KERN_CONT marker.
      
      So this patch not only re-instates the non-empty KERN_CONT marker, it
      also fixes up the cases of bit-rot I noticed in my own logs.
      
      There are probably other cases where KERN_CONT will be needed to be
      added, either because it is new code that never dealt with the need for
      KERN_CONT, or old code that has bitrotted without anybody noticing.
      
      That said, we should strive to avoid the need for KERN_CONT.  It does
      result in real problems for logging, and should generally not be seen as
      a good feature.  If we some day can get rid of the feature entirely,
      because nobody does any fragmented printk calls, that would be lovely.
      
      But until that point, let's at mark the code that relies on the hacky
      multi-fragment kernel printk's.  Not only does it avoid the ambiguity,
      it also annotates code as "maybe this would be good to fix some day".
      
      (That said, particularly during single-threaded bootup, the downsides of
      KERN_CONT are very limited.  Things get much hairier when you have
      multiple threads going on and user level reading and writing logs too).

      TX stats update does not take into account headers which get duplicated

      tunneled (vxlan) and non-tunneled TSO packets.
