proc: proc_skip_spaces() shouldn't think it is working on C strings

2022-12-08T10:30:22Z

commit bce9332220bd677d83b19d21502776ad555a0e73 upstream. proc_skip_spaces() seems to think it is working on C strings, and ends up being just a wrapper around skip_spaces() with a really odd calling convention. Instead of basing it on skip_spaces(), it should have looked more like proc_skip_char(), which really is the exact same function (except it skips a particular character, rather than whitespace). So use that as inspiration, odd coding and all. Now the calling convention actually makes sense and works for the intended purpose.

proc: avoid integer type confusion in get_proc_long

2022-12-08T10:30:22Z

commit e6cfaf34be9fcd1a8285a294e18986bfc41a409c upstream. proc_get_long() is passed a size_t, but then assigns it to an 'int' variable for the length. Let's not do that, even if our IO paths are limited to MAX_RW_COUNT (exactly because of these kinds of type errors). So do the proper test in the rigth type.

sysctl: Merge adjacent CONFIG_TREE_RCU blocks

2022-08-08T16:01:36Z

There are two adjacent sysctl entries protected by the same CONFIG_TREE_RCU config symbol. Merge them into a single block to improve readability. Use the more common "#ifdef" form while at it. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Reviewed-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain

"numa_stat" should not be included in the scope of CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE, if CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is not configured even if CONFIG_NUMA is configured, "numa_stat" is missed form /proc.

sysctl: Fix data-races in proc_dointvec_ms_jiffies().

2022-07-13T11:56:49Z

A sysctl variable is accessed concurrently, and there is always a chance of data-race. So, all readers and writers need some basic protection to avoid load/store-tearing. This patch changes proc_dointvec_ms_jiffies() to use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() internally to fix data-races on the sysctl side. For now, proc_dointvec_ms_jiffies() itself is tolerant to a data-race, but we still need to add annotations on the other subsystem's side.
