<content type='text'>
We observed a large(order-3) allocation in evdev_open() and it may
cause an OOM kernel panic in kzalloc(), before we getting to the
vzalloc() fallback.

Fix it by converting kzalloc()/vzalloc() to kvzalloc() to avoid the
OOM killer logic as we have a vmalloc fallback.

<title>Input: input_event - fix struct padding on sparc64</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f729a1b0f8df7091cea3729fc0e414f5326e1163</id>
<content type='text'>
Going through all uses of timeval, I noticed that we screwed up
input_event in the previous attempts to fix it:

The time fields now match between kernel and user space, but all following
fields are in the wrong place.

Add the required padding that is implied by the glibc timeval definition
to fix the layout, and use a struct initializer to avoid leaking kernel
stack data.

Fixes: 141e5dcaa735 ("Input: input_event - fix the CONFIG_SPARC64 mixup")
Fixes: 2e746942ebac ("Input: input_event - provide override for sparc64")

<content type='text'>
Currently, evdev stamps events with timestamps acquired in evdev_events()
However, this timestamping may not be accurate in terms of measuring
when the actual event happened.

Let's allow individual drivers specify timestamp in order to provide a more
accurate sense of time for the event. It is expected that drivers will set the
timestamp in their hard interrupt routine.

<title>*: convert stream-like files from nonseekable_open -&gt; stream_open</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c5bf68fe0c86a5835bd2e6aead1c49976360753f</id>
<content type='text'>
Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af3422
("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write
can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to
stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and
write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods
in file_operations which assume @offset access.

I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert -
and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct
to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci
limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to
convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek
for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.
drivers/input/mousedev.c)

Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock
(see details in 10dce8af3422):

and the rest were just safe to convert to stream_open because their read and
write do not use ppos at all and corresponding file_operations do not
have methods that assume @offset file access(*):

One can also recheck/review the patch via generating it with explanation comments included via

	$ make coccicheck MODE=patch COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci SPFLAGS="-D explain"

(*) This second group also contains cases with read/write deadlocks that
stream_open.cocci don't yet detect, but which are still valid to convert to
stream_open since ppos is not used. For example drivers/pci/switch/switchtec.c
calls wait_for_completion_interruptible() in its .read, but stream_open.cocci
currently detects only "wait_event*" as blocking.

<title>Input: evdev - use struct_size() in kzalloc() and vzalloc()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ecdf3a965826d8d900a747f0650acb172191dc9b</id>
<content type='text'>
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:

struct foo {
    int stuff;
    struct boo entry[];
};

size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:

instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

Notice that, in this case, variable size is not necessary, hence
it is removed.

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Large writes to evdev interface may cause rcu stalls. Let's add
cond_resched() to the loop to avoid this.

Switch to bitmap API, i.e. bitmap_alloc(), bitmap_zalloc(), to show
clearly what we are allocating. Besides that it returns pointer of
bitmap type instead of opaque void *.

While here, replace memcpy() with bitmap_copy() for sake of consistency.

<title>vfs: do bulk POLL* -&gt; EPOLL* replacement</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a9a08845e9acbd224e4ee466f5c1275ed50054e8</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.
