bootconfig: Allocate xbc_nodes array dynamically

2020-02-10T22:19:39+00:00

To reduce the large static array from kernel data, allocate xbc_nodes array dynamically only if the kernel loads a bootconfig. Note that this also add dummy memblock.h for user-spacae bootconfig tool.

bootconfig: Remove unneeded CONFIG_LIBXBC

2020-02-10T17:07:42+00:00

Since there is no user except CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG and no plan to use it from other functions, CONFIG_LIBXBC can be removed and we can use CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG directly.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added new "bootconfig". This looks for a file appended to initrd to add boot config options, and has been discussed thoroughly at Linux Plumbers. Very useful for adding kprobes at bootup. Only enabled if "bootconfig" is on the real kernel command line. - Created dynamic event creation. Merges common code between creating synthetic events and kprobe events. - Rename perf "ring_buffer" structure to "perf_buffer" - Rename ftrace "ring_buffer" structure to "trace_buffer" Had to rename existing "trace_buffer" to "array_buffer" - Allow trace_printk() to work withing (some) tracing code. - Sort of tracing configs to be a little better organized - Fixed bug where ftrace_graph hash was not being protected properly - Various other small fixes and clean ups * tag 'trace-v5.6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (88 commits) bootconfig: Show the number of nodes on boot message tools/bootconfig: Show the number of bootconfig nodes bootconfig: Add more parse error messages bootconfig: Use bootconfig instead of boot config ftrace: Protect ftrace_graph_hash with ftrace_sync ftrace: Add comment to why rcu_dereference_sched() is open coded tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_notrace_hash pointer with __rcu tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_hash pointer with __rcu bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline tracing: Use seq_buf for building dynevent_cmd string tracing: Remove useless code in dynevent_arg_pair_add() tracing: Remove check_arg() callbacks from dynevent args tracing: Consolidate some synth_event_trace code tracing: Fix now invalid var_ref_vals assumption in trace action tracing: Change trace_boot to use synth_event interface tracing: Move tracing selftests to bottom of menu tracing: Move mmio tracer config up with the other tracers tracing: Move tracing test module configs together tracing: Move all function tracing configs together tracing: Documentation for in-kernel synthetic event API ...

tools/bootconfig: Show the number of bootconfig nodes

2020-02-05T22:17:05+00:00

Show the number of bootconfig nodes when applying new bootconfig to initrd. Since there are limitations of bootconfig not only in its filesize, but also the number of nodes, the number should be shown when applying so that user can get the feeling of scale of current bootconfig.

bootconfig: Add more parse error messages

2020-02-05T22:17:05+00:00

Add more error messages for following cases. - Exceeding max number of nodes - Config tree data is empty (e.g. comment only) - Config data is empty or exceeding max size - bootconfig is already initialized Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/158091060401.27924.9024818742827122764.stgit@devnote2 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)

lib: new testcases for bitmap_parse{_user}

2020-02-04T03:05:27+00:00

New version of bitmap_parse() is unified with bitmap_parse_list(), and therefore: - weakens rules on whitespaces and commas between hex chunks; - in addition to - allows passing UINT_MAX or any other big number as the length of input string instead of actual string length. The patch covers the cases.

lib: rework bitmap_parse()

2020-02-04T03:05:26+00:00

bitmap_parse() is ineffective and full of opaque variables and opencoded parts. It leads to hard understanding and usage of it. This rework includes: - remove bitmap_shift_left() call from the cycle. Now it makes the complexity of the algorithm as O(nbits^2). In the suggested approach the input string is parsed in reverse direction, so no shifts needed; - relax requirement on a single comma and no white spaces between chunks. It is considered useful in scripting, and it aligns with bitmap_parselist(); - split bitmap_parse() to small readable helpers; - make an explicit calculation of the end of input line at the beginning, so users of the bitmap_parse() won't bother doing this.

lib: make bitmap_parse_user a wrapper on bitmap_parse

2020-02-04T03:05:26+00:00

Currently we parse user data byte after byte which leads to overcomplicating of parsing algorithm. There are no performance critical users of bitmap_parse_user(), and so we can duplicate user data to kernel buffer and simply call bitmap_parselist(). This rework lets us unify and simplify bitmap_parse() and bitmap_parse_user(), which is done in the following patch.
