This allows user to print a given buffer as an escaped string. The
rules are applied according to an optional mix of flags provided by
additional format letters.
For example, if the given buffer is:
1b 62 20 5c 43 07 22 90 0d 5d
The result strings would be:
%*pE "\eb \C\a"\220\r]"
%*pEhp "\x1bb \C\x07"\x90\x0d]"
%*pEa "\e\142\040\\\103\a\042\220\r\135"

This is almost the opposite function to string_unescape(). Nevertheless
it handles \0 and could be used for any byte buffer.
The documentation is supplied together with the function prototype.
The test cases covers most of the scenarios and would be expanded later
on.

The introduced function string_escape_mem() is a kind of opposite to
string_unescape. We have several users of such functionality each of
them created custom implementation. The series contains clean up of
test suite, adding new call, and switching few users to use it via %*pE
specifier.
Test suite covers all of existing and most of potential use cases.
This patch (of 11):
The documentation of API belongs to c-file. This patch moves it
accordingly.
There is no functional change.

If all the nodes are marked hotpluggable, alloc node data will fail.
Because __next_mem_range_rev() will skip the hotpluggable memory
regions. numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() is called after alloc node
data.
numa_init()
...
ret = init_func(); // this will mark hotpluggable flag from SRAT
...
memblock_set_bottom_up(false);
...
ret = numa_register_memblks(&numa_meminfo); // this will alloc node data(pglist_data)
...
numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug(); // in case all the nodes are hotpluggable
...
numa_register_memblks()
setup_node_data()
memblock_find_in_range_node()
__memblock_find_range_top_down()
for_each_mem_range_rev()
__next_mem_range_rev()
This patch moves numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() into
numa_register_memblks(), clear kernel node hotpluggable flag before
alloc node data, then alloc node data won't fail even all the nodes
are hotpluggable.

It's very common for the buffer heads in the lru to have different block
numbers. By comparing the blocknr before the bdev and size we can
reduce the cost of searching in the very common case where all the
entries have the same bdev and size.
In quick hot cache cycle counting tests on a single fs workstation this
cut the cost of a miss by about 20%.
A diff of the disassembly shows the reordering of the bdev and blocknr
comparisons. This is in such a tiny loop that skipping one comparison
is a meaningful portion of the total work being done:

lib/string.c contains two functions, strnicmp and strncasecmp, which do
roughly the same thing, namely compare two strings case-insensitively up
to a given bound. They have slightly different implementations, but the
only important difference is that strncasecmp doesn't handle len==0
appropriately; it effectively becomes strcasecmp in that case. strnicmp
correctly says that two strings are always equal in their first 0
characters.
strncasecmp is the POSIX name for this functionality. So rename the
non-broken function to the standard name. To minimize the impact on the
rest of the kernel (and since both are exported to modules), make strnicmp
a wrapper for strncasecmp.

Resolve some shadow warnings produced in W=2 builds by changing the name
of some parameters and local variables. Change instances of "s64"
because that clashes with the well-known typedef. Also change a local
variable with the name "up" because that clashes with the name of of the
"up" function for semaphores. These are hazards so eliminate the

do_shmat() is the only user of ->start_stack (proc just reports its
value), and this check looks ugly and wrong.
The reason for this check is not clear at all, and it wrongly assumes that
the stack can only grow down.
But the main problem is that in general mm->start_stack has nothing to do
with stack_vma->vm_start. Not only the application can switch to another
stack and even unmap this area, setup_arg_pages() expands the stack
without updating mm->start_stack during exec(). This means that in the
likely case "addr > start_stack - size - PAGE_SIZE * 5" is simply
impossible after find_vma_intersection() == F, or the stack can't grow
anyway because of RLIMIT_STACK.

Use the optimized ioresource lookup, "region_is_ram", for the ioremap
function. If the region is not found, it falls back to the
"page_is_ram" function. If it is found and it is RAM, then the usual
warning message is issued, and the ioremap operation is aborted.
Otherwise, the ioremap operation continues.

We have a large university system in the UK that is experiencing very long
delays modprobing the driver for a specific I/O device. The delay is from
8-10 minutes per device and there are 31 devices in the system. This 4 to
5 hour delay in starting up those I/O devices is very much a burden on the
customer.
There are two causes for requiring a restart/reload of the drivers. First
is periodic preventive maintenance (PM) and the second is if any of the
devices experience a fatal error. Both of these trigger this excessively
long delay in bringing the system back up to full capability.
The problem was tracked down to a very slow IOREMAP operation and the
excessively long ioresource lookup to insure that the user is not
attempting to ioremap RAM. These patches provide a speed up to that
function.
The modprobe time appears to be affected quite a bit by previous activity
on the ioresource list, which I suspect is due to cache preloading. While
the overall improvement is impacted by other overhead of starting the
devices, this drastically improves the modprobe time.
Also our system is considerably smaller so the percentages gained will not
be the same. Best case improvement with the modprobe on our 20 device
smallish system was from 'real 5m51.913s' to 'real 0m18.275s'.
This patch (of 2):
Since the ioremap operation is verifying that the specified address range
is NOT RAM, it will search the entire ioresource list if the condition is
true. To make matters worse, it does this one 4k page at a time. For a
128M BAR region this is 32 passes to determine the entire region does not
contain any RAM addresses.
This patch provides another resource lookup function, region_is_ram, that
searches for the entire region specified, verifying that it is completely
contained within the resource region. If it is found, then it is checked
to be RAM or not, within a single pass.
The return result reflects if it was found or not (-1), and whether it is
RAM (1) or not (0). This allows the caller to fallback to the previous
page by page search if it was not found.

Add a check if crashk_res_low exists just like GART region does. If
crashk_res_low doesn't exist, calling exclude_mem_range is unnecessary.
Meanwhile, since crashk_res_low has been initialized at definition, it's
safe just use "if (crashk_low_res.end)" to check if it's exist. And this
can make it consistent with other places of check.

In locate_mem_hole functions, a memory hole is located and added as
kexec_segment. But from the name of locate_mem_hole, it should only take
responsibility of searching a available memory hole to contain data of a
specified size.
So in this patch add a new field 'mem' into kexec_buf, then take that
kexec segment adding code out of locate_mem_hole_top_down and
locate_mem_hole_bottom_up. This make clear of the functionality of
locate_mem_hole just like it declars to do. And by this
locate_mem_hole_callback chould be used later if anyone want to locate a
memory hole for other use.
Meanwhile Vivek suggested opening code function __kexec_add_segment(),
that way we have to retreive ksegment pointer once and it is easy to read.
So just do it in this patch and remove __kexec_add_segment() since no one
use it anymore.

format_corename() can only pass the leader's pid to the core handler,
but there is no simple way to figure out which thread originated the
coredump.
As Jan explains, this also means that there is no simple way to create
the backtrace of the crashed process:
As programs are mostly compiled with implicit gcc -fomit-frame-pointer
one needs program's .eh_frame section (equivalently PT_GNU_EH_FRAME
segment) or .debug_frame section. .debug_frame usually is present only
in separate debug info files usually not even installed on the system.
While .eh_frame is a part of the executable/library (and it is even
always mapped for C++ exceptions unwinding) it no longer has to be
present anywhere on the disk as the program could be upgraded in the
meantime and the running instance has its executable file already
unlinked from disk.
One possibility is to echo 0x3f >/proc/*/coredump_filter and dump all
the file-backed memory including the executable's .eh_frame section.
But that can create huge core files, for example even due to mmapped
data files.
Other possibility would be to read .eh_frame from /proc/PID/mem at the
core_pattern handler time of the core dump. For the backtrace one needs
to read the register state first which can be done from core_pattern
handler:
ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT)
close(0); // close pipe fd to resume the sleeping dumper
waitpid(); // should report EXIT
PTRACE_GETREGS or other requests
The remaining problem is how to get the 'tid' value of the crashed
thread. It could be read from the first NT_PRSTATUS note of the core
file but that makes the core_pattern handler complicated.
Unfortunately %t is already used so this patch uses %i/%I.
Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (https://github.com/abrt/abrt/wiki/overview)
is experimenting with this. It is using the elfutils
(https://fedorahosted.org/elfutils/) unwinder for generating the
backtraces. Apart from not needing matching executables as mentioned
above, another advantage is that we can get the backtrace without saving
the core (which might be quite large) to disk.

Kill _NSIG_WORDS_is_unsupported_size(), use BUILD_BUG() instead. This
simplifies the code, avoids the nested-externs warnings, and this way we
do not defer the problem to linker.
Also, fix the indentation in _SIG_SET_BINOP() and _SIG_SET_OP().
Note: this patch assumes that the code like "if (0) BUILD_BUG();" is
valid. If not (say __compiletime_error() is not defined and thus
__compiletime_error_fallback() uses a negative array) we should fix
BUILD_BUG() and/or BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG(). This code should be fine by
definition, this is the documented purpose of BUILD_BUG().
