2022-11-30checkpatch: add check for array allocator family argument orderLiao Chang1-1/+1
These array allocator family are sometimes misused with the first and second arguments switched. Same issue with calloc, kvcalloc, kvmalloc_array etc. Bleat if sizeof is the first argument.

2022-09-29checkpatch: warn on usage of VM_BUG_ON() and other BUG variantsDavid Hildenbrand1-3/+3
checkpatch does not point out that VM_BUG_ON() and friends should be avoided, however, Linus notes: VM_BUG_ON() has the exact same semantics as BUG_ON. It is literally no different, the only difference is "we can make the code smaller because these are less important". [1] So let's warn on VM_BUG_ON() and other BUG variants as well. While at it, make it clearer that the kernel really shouldn't be crashed. As there are some subsystem BUG macros that actually don't end up crashing the kernel -- for example, KVM_BUG_ON() -- exclude these manually.

2022-09-11checkpatch: add kmap and kmap_atomic to the deprecated listIra Weiny1-0/+2
kmap() and kmap_atomic() are being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the kmap's pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully utilized until a slot becomes available. kmap_local_page() is safe from any context and is therefore redundant with kmap_atomic() with the exception of any pagefault or preemption disable requirements. However, using kmap_atomic() for these side effects makes the code less clear. So any requirement for pagefault or preemption disable should be made explicitly. With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts). It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore, the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the kernel virtual addresses are restored.

2022-06-16checkpatch: fix incorrect camelcase detection on numeric constantAntonio Borneo1-1/+1
The code fragment below int foo(int *array, int index) { return array[index & 0xFF]; } triggers an incorrect camelcase detection by checking a substring of the hex constant: CHECK: Avoid CamelCase: <xFF> #3: FILE: test.c:3: + return array[index & 0xFF]; This is caused by passing the whole string "array[index & 0xFF]" to the inner loop that iterates over a "$Ident" match. The numeric constant is not a $Ident as it doesn't start with [A-Za-z_] and should be excluded from the match. Similar issue can be detected with other constants like "1uL", "0xffffU". Force the match to start at word boundary so the $Ident will be properly checked starting from its first char and the constants will be filtered-out.

2022-03-23checkpatch: use python3 to find codespell dictionarySagar Patel1-2/+2
Commit 0ee3e7b8893e ("checkpatch: get default codespell dictionary path from package location") introduced the ability to search for the codespell dictionary rather than hardcoding its path. codespell requires Python 3.6 or above, but on some systems, the python executable is a Python 2.7 interpreter. In this case, searching for the dictionary fails, subsequently making codespell fail: No codespell typos will be found - file '/usr/share/codespell/dictionary.txt': No such file or directory So, use python3 to remove ambiguity. In addition, when searching for dictionary.txt, do not check if the codespell executable exists since, - checkpatch.pl only uses dictionary.txt, not the codespell executable. - codespell can be installed via a Python package manager, in which case the codespell executable may not be present in a typical $PATH, but a dictionary does exist.

2021-11-06Compiler Attributes: add __alloc_size() for better bounds checkingKees Cook1-1/+2
GCC and Clang can use the "alloc_size" attribute to better inform the results of __builtin_object_size() (for compile-time constant values). Clang can additionally use alloc_size to inform the results of __builtin_dynamic_object_size() (for run-time values). Because GCC sees the frequent use of struct_size() as an allocator size argument, and notices it can return SIZE_MAX (the overflow indication), it complains about these call sites overflowing (since SIZE_MAX is greater than the default -Walloc-size-larger-than=PTRDIFF_MAX). This isn't helpful since we already know a SIZE_MAX will be caught at run-time (this was an intentional design). To deal with this, we must disable this check as it is both a false positive and redundant. (Clang does not have this warning option.) Unfortunately, just checking the -Wno-alloc-size-larger-than is not sufficient to make the __alloc_size attribute behave correctly under older GCC versions. The attribute itself must be disabled in those situations too, as there appears to be no way to reliably silence the SIZE_MAX constant expression cases for GCC versions less than 9.1: In file included from ./include/linux/resource_ext.h:11, from ./include/linux/pci.h:40, from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe.h:9, from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_lib.c:4: In function 'kmalloc_node', inlined from 'ixgbe_alloc_q_vector' at ./include/linux/slab.h:743:9: ./include/linux/slab.h:618:9: error: argument 1 value '18446744073709551615' exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807 [-Werror=alloc-size-larger-than=] return __kmalloc_node(size, flags, node); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ./include/linux/slab.h: In function 'ixgbe_alloc_q_vector': ./include/linux/slab.h:455:7: note: in a call to allocation function '__kmalloc_node' declared here void *__kmalloc_node(size_t size, gfp_t flags, int node) __assume_slab_alignment __malloc; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Specifically: '-Wno-alloc-size-larger-than' is not correctly handled by GCC < 9.1 https://godbolt.org/z/hqsfG7q84 (doesn't disable) https://godbolt.org/z/P9jdrPTYh (doesn't admit to not knowing about option) https://godbolt.org/z/465TPMWKb (only warns when other warnings appear) '-Walloc-size-larger-than=18446744073709551615' is not handled by GCC < 8.2 https://godbolt.org/z/73hh1EPxz (ignores numeric value) Since anything marked with __alloc_size would also qualify for marking with __malloc, just include __malloc along with it to avoid redundant markings. (Suggested by Linus Torvalds.) Finally, make sure checkpatch.pl doesn't get confused about finding the __alloc_size attribute on functions. (Thanks to Joe Perches.)

2021-09-08checkpatch: make email address check case insensitiveMimi Zohar1-2/+2
Instead of checkpatch requiring the patch author to exactly match the signed-off-by tag, commit 48ca2d8ac8a1 ("checkpatch: add new warnings to author signoff checks.") safely relaxed this requirement. Although the local-part of an email address (local-part@domain), may be case sensitive, exploiting the case sensitivity of mailbox local-parts impedes interoperability and is discouraged. Mailbox domains follow normal DNS rules and are hence not case sensitive. (Refer to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5321#section-2.4.) Further relax the patch author and signed-off-by tag comparison by making the email address check case insensitive.

2021-07-01checkpatch: do not complain about positive return values starting with EPOLLGuenter Roeck1-1/+1
checkpatch complains about positive return values of poll functions. Example: WARNING: return of an errno should typically be negative (ie: return -EPOLLIN) + return EPOLLIN; Poll functions return positive values. The defines for the return values of poll functions all start with EPOLL, resulting in a number of false positives. An often used workaround is to assign poll function return values to variables and returning that variable, but that is a less than perfect solution. There is no error definition which starts with EPOLL, so it is safe to omit the warning for return values starting with EPOLL.

Add a new verbose mode to checkpatch.pl to emit additional verbose test descriptions. The verbose mode is optional and can be enabled by the flag -v or --verbose. The test descriptions are parsed from the checkpatch documentation file at `Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst`. The test descriptions in the docs are kept in a fixed format grouped by usage. Some examples of this format are: **LINE_SPACING** Vertical space is wasted given the limited number of lines an editor window can display when multiple blank lines are used. **MISSING_SIGN_OFF** The patch is missing a Signed-off-by line. A signed-off-by line should be added according to Developer's certificate of Origin. To avoid lengthy output, the verbose description is printed only for the first instance of a particular message type. The --verbose option cannot be used along with the --terse option. Verbose mode can be used with the --list-types option. The --list-types output also supports color coding now.

2021-02-26checkpatch: ignore warning designated initializers using NR_CPUSPeng Wang1-1/+3
Some max_length wants to hold as large room as possible to ensure enough size to tackle with the biggest NR_CPUS. An example below: kernel/cgroup/cpuset.c: static struct cftype legacy_files[] = { { .name = "cpus", .seq_show = cpuset_common_seq_show, .write = cpuset_write_resmask, .max_write_len = (100U + 6 * NR_CPUS), .private = FILE_CPULIST, }, ... } Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/5d4998aa8a8ac7efada2c7daffa9e73559f8b186.1609331255.git.rocking@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Peng Wang <rocking@linux.alibaba.com> Acked-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2021-02-26checkpatch: improve blank line after declaration testJoe Perches1-23/+29
Avoid multiple false positives by ignoring attributes. Various attributes like volatile and ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp cause checkpatch to emit invalid "Missing a blank line after declarations" messages. Use copies of $sline and $prevline, remove $Attribute and $Sparse, and use the existing tests to avoid these false positives. Miscellanea: o Add volatile to $Attribute This also reduces checkpatch runtime a bit by moving the indentation comparison test to the start of the block to avoid multiple unnecessary regex tests.

2021-02-23Merge tag 'modules-for-v5.12' of ↵Linus Torvalds1-4/+2
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux Pull module updates from Jessica Yu: - Retire EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE(). These export types were introduced between 2006 - 2008. All the of the unused symbols have been long removed and gpl future symbols were converted to gpl quite a long time ago, and I don't believe these export types have been used ever since. So, I think it should be safe to retire those export types now (Christoph Hellwig) - Refactor and clean up some aged code cruft in the module loader (Christoph Hellwig) - Build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol only when livepatching is enabled, as it is the only caller (Christoph Hellwig) - Unexport find_module() and module_mutex and fix the last module callers to not rely on these anymore. Make module_mutex internal to the module loader (Christoph Hellwig) - Harden ELF checks on module load and validate ELF structures before checking the module signature (Frank van der Linden) - Fix undefined symbol warning for clang (Fangrui Song) - Fix smatch warning (Dan Carpenter) * tag 'modules-for-v5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux: module: potential uninitialized return in module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL* module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE module: move struct symsearch to module.c module: pass struct find_symbol_args to find_symbol module: merge each_symbol_section into find_symbol module: remove each_symbol_in_section module: mark module_mutex static kallsyms: only build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol when required kallsyms: refactor {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol module: use RCU to synchronize find_module module: unexport find_module and module_mutex drm: remove drm_fb_helper_modinit powerpc/powernv: remove get_cxl_module module: harden ELF info handling module: Ignore _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ when warning for undefined symbols
2021-02-17lib/vsprintf: Add support for printing V4L2 and DRM fourccsSakari Ailus1-2/+4
Add a printk modifier %p4cc (for pixel format) for printing V4L2 and DRM pixel formats denoted by fourccs. The fourcc encoding is the same for both so the same implementation can be used.
