The most notable change is DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE macro split in
seq_file.h.

Conversion rule is:

	llseek		=&gt; proc_lseek
	unlocked_ioctl	=&gt; proc_ioctl

	xxx		=&gt; proc_xxx

	delete ".owner = THIS_MODULE" line

<content type='text'>
A use of uninitialized memory in msgctl_down() because msqid64 in
ksys_msgctl hasn't been initialized.  The local | msqid64 | is created in
ksys_msgctl() and then passed into msgctl_down().  Along the way msqid64
is never initialized before msgctl_down() checks msqid64-&gt;msg_qbytes.

<id>urn:sha1:8116b54e7e23ef948ecac0e0ab78d10888265cab</id>
<content type='text'>
Document and update the memory barriers in ipc/sem.c:

- Add smp_store_release() to wake_up_sem_queue_prepare() and
  document why it is needed.

- Read q-&gt;status using READ_ONCE+smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep().
  as the pair for the barrier inside wake_up_sem_queue_prepare().

- Add comments to all barriers, and mention the rules in the block
  regarding locking.

- Switch to using wake_q_add_safe().

<content type='text'>
Transfer findings from ipc/mqueue.c:

- A control barrier was missing for the lockless receive case So in
  theory, not yet initialized data may have been copied to user space -
  obviously only for architectures where control barriers are not NOP.

- use smp_store_release().  In theory, the refount may have been
  decreased to 0 already when wake_q_add() tries to get a reference.

<id>urn:sha1:c5b2cbdbdac563f46ecd5e187253ab1abbd6fc04</id>
<content type='text'>
Update and document memory barriers for mqueue.c:

- ewp-&gt;state is read without any locks, thus READ_ONCE is required.

- add smp_aquire__after_ctrl_dep() after the READ_ONCE, we need
  acquire semantics if the value is STATE_READY.

- use wake_q_add_safe()

- document why __set_current_state() may be used:
  Reading task-&gt;state cannot happen before the wake_q_add() call,
  which happens while holding info-&gt;lock. Thus the spin_unlock()
  is the RELEASE, and the spin_lock() is the ACQUIRE.

For completeness: there is also a 3 CPU scenario, if the to be woken
up task is already on another wake_q.
Then:
- CPU1: spin_unlock() of the task that goes to sleep is the RELEASE
- CPU2: the spin_lock() of the waker is the ACQUIRE
- CPU2: smp_mb__before_atomic inside wake_q_add() is the RELEASE
- CPU3: smp_mb__after_spinlock() inside try_to_wake_up() is the ACQUIRE

<title>treewide: Use sizeof_field() macro</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c593642c8be046915ca3a4a300243a68077cd207</id>
<content type='text'>
Replace all the occurrences of FIELD_SIZEOF() with sizeof_field() except
at places where these are defined. Later patches will remove the unused
definition of FIELD_SIZEOF().

This patch is generated using following script:

EXCLUDE_FILES="include/linux/stddef.h|include/linux/kernel.h"

git grep -l -e "\bFIELD_SIZEOF\b" | while read file;
do

	if [[ "$file" =~ $EXCLUDE_FILES ]]; then
		continue
	fi
	sed -i  -e 's/\bFIELD_SIZEOF\b/sizeof_field/g' $file;
done

CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST requires list_for_each_entry_rcu() to pass a lockdep
expression if using srcu or locking for protection.  It can only check
regular RCU protection, all other protection needs to be passed as lockdep
expression.

<title>ipc/mqueue: improve exception handling in do_mq_notify()</title>

<content type='text'>
Null pointers were assigned to local variables in a few cases as exception
handling.  The jump target “out” was used where no meaningful data
processing actions should eventually be performed by branches of an if
statement then.  Use an additional jump target for calling dev_kfree_skb()
directly.

Return also directly after error conditions were detected when no extra
clean-up is needed by this function implementation.
