Linus Torvalds 96d4f267e4 Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Kees Cook e581ca813a pstore: Create common record initializer
In preparation for setting timestamps in the pstore core, create a common
initializer routine, instead of using static initializers.

Geliang Tang 3509d048c8 pstore: Remove unused vmalloc.h in pmsg
Since the vmalloc code has been removed from write_pmsg() in the commit
"5bf6d1b pstore/pmsg: drop bounce buffer", remove the unused header
vmalloc.h.

Kees Cook 4c9ec21976 pstore: Remove write_buf() callback
Now that write() and write_buf() are functionally identical, this removes
write_buf(), and renames write_buf_user() to write_user(). Additionally
adds sanity-checks for pstore_info's declared functions and flags at
registration time.

Kees Cook fdd0311863 pstore: Replace arguments for write_buf_user() API
Removes argument list in favor of pstore record, though the user buffer
remains passed separately since it must carry the __user annotation.

Mark Salyzyn 5bf6d1b927 pstore/pmsg: drop bounce buffer
Removing a bounce buffer copy operation in the pmsg driver path is
always better. We also gain in overall performance by not requesting
a vmalloc on every write as this can cause precious RT tasks, such
as user facing media operation, to stall while memory is being
reclaimed. Added a write_buf_user to the pstore functions, a backup
platform write_buf_user that uses the small buffer that is part of
the instance, and implemented a ramoops write_buf_user that only
supports PSTORE_TYPE_PMSG.

Geliang Tang ee1d267423 pstore: add pstore unregister
pstore doesn't support unregistering yet. It was marked as TODO.
This patch adds some code to fix it:
 1) Add functions to unregister kmsg/console/ftrace/pmsg.
 2) Add a function to free compression buffer.
 3) Unmap the memory and free it.
 4) Add a function to unregister pstore filesystem.

Mark Salyzyn 9d5438f462 pstore: Add pmsg - user-space accessible pstore object
A secured user-space accessible pstore object. Writes
to /dev/pmsg0 are appended to the buffer, on reboot
the persistent contents are available in
/sys/fs/pstore/pmsg-ramoops-[ID].

One possible use is syslogd, or other daemon, can
write messages, then on reboot provides a means to
triage user-space activities leading up to a panic
as a companion to the pstore dmesg or console logs.
