<id>urn:sha1:6270f4deba3fbd77d1717fb8634f1fc612ff69e2</id>
<content type='text'>
The destination argument of memtostr*() and strtomem*() must be a
fixed-size char array at compile time, so there is no need to use
__builtin_object_size() (which is useful for when an argument is
either a pointer or unknown). Instead use ARRAY_SIZE(), which has the
benefit of working around a bug in Clang (fixed[1] in 15+) that got
__builtin_object_size() wrong sometimes.

<content type='text'>
The function dyn_event_release() uses argv_split() which must be freed via
argv_free(). It contains several error paths that do a goto out to call
argv_free() for cleanup. This makes the code complex and error prone.

Create a new __free() directive __free(argv_free) that will call
argv_free() for data allocated with argv_split(), and use it in the
dyn_event_release() function.

bprintf() is unused. Remove it. It was added in the commit 4370aa4aa753
("vsprintf: add binary printf") but as far as I can see was never used,
unlike the other two functions in that patch.

<title>string: Check for "nonstring" attribute on strscpy() arguments</title>

GCC already checks for arguments that are marked with the "nonstring"[1]
attribute when used on standard C String API functions (e.g. strcpy). Gain
this compile-time checking also for the kernel's primary string copying
function, strscpy().

Note that Clang has neither "nonstring" nor __builtin_has_attribute().

<content type='text'>
Almost two thirds of the memchr_inv() usages check if the memory area is
all zeros, with no interest in where in the buffer the first non-zero
byte is located. Checking for !memchr_inv(s, 0, n) is also not very
intuitive or discoverable. Add an explicit mem_is_zero() helper for this
use case.

<id>urn:sha1:0ee14725471cea66e03e3cd4f4c582d759de502c</id>
<content type='text'>
GCC 14.1 complains about the argument usage of kmemdup_array():

  drivers/soc/tegra/fuse/fuse-tegra.c:130:65: error: 'kmemdup_array' sizes specified with 'sizeof' in the earlier argument and not in the later argument [-Werror=calloc-transposed-args]
    130 |         fuse-&gt;lookups = kmemdup_array(fuse-&gt;soc-&gt;lookups, sizeof(*fuse-&gt;lookups),
        |                                                                 ^
  drivers/soc/tegra/fuse/fuse-tegra.c:130:65: note: earlier argument should specify number of elements, later size of each element

The annotation introduced by commit 7d78a7773355 ("string: Add
additional __realloc_size() annotations for "dup" helpers") lets the
compiler think that kmemdup_array() follows the same format as calloc(),
with the number of elements preceding the size of one element. So we
could simply swap the arguments to __realloc_size() to get rid of that
warning, but it seems cleaner to instead have kmemdup_array() follow the
same format as krealloc_array(), memdup_array_user(), calloc() etc.

Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton:
 "The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM,
  documented (hopefully adequately) in the respective changelogs.
  Notable series include:

   - Lucas Stach has provided some page-mapping cleanup/consolidation/
     maintainability work in the series "mm/treewide: Remove pXd_huge()
     API".

   - In the series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with
     MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy", Donet Tom has optimized mempolicy's
     MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY mode, yielding almost doubled performance in
     one test.

   - In their series "Memory allocation profiling" Kent Overstreet and
     Suren Baghdasaryan have contributed a means of determining (via
     /proc/allocinfo) whereabouts in the kernel memory is being
     allocated: number of calls and amount of memory.

   - Matthew Wilcox has provided the series "Various significant MM
     patches" which does a number of rather unrelated things, but in
     largely similar code sites.

   - Kemeng Shi has added more userspace-visible writeback
     instrumentation in the series "Improve visibility of writeback".

   - Kemeng Shi then sent some maintenance work on top in the series
     "Fix and cleanups to page-writeback".

   - Matthew Wilcox reduces mmap_lock traffic in the anon vma code in
     the series "Improve anon_vma scalability for anon VMAs". Intel's
     test bot reported an improbable 3x improvement in one test.

   - SeongJae Park adds some DAMON feature work in the series
	"mm/damon: add a DAMOS filter type for page granularity access recheck"

<title>string: Add additional __realloc_size() annotations for "dup" helpers</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=7d78a77733552092361239b1d8afaf8412f5dffd'/>

<content type='text'>
Several other "dup"-style interfaces could use the __realloc_size()
attribute. (As a reminder to myself and others: "realloc" is used here
instead of "alloc" because the "alloc_size" attribute implies that the
memory contents are uninitialized. Since we're copying contents into the
resulting allocation, it must use "realloc_size" to avoid confusing the
compiler's optimization passes.)

Add KUnit test coverage where possible. (KUnit still does not have the
ability to manipulate userspace memory.)
