linux-next: manual merge of the vfs tree with the parisc-hd tree

linux-next: manual merge of the vfs tree with the parisc-hd tree

[Stephen Rothwell]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 48180 bytes --]

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the vfs tree got a conflict in:

  kernel/sysctl.c

between commit:

  b6522fa409cf ("parisc: add sysctl file interface panic_on_stackoverflow")

from the parisc-hd tree and commit:

  f461d2dcd511 ("sysctl: avoid forward declarations")

from the vfs tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell

Kernel/sysctl.c contains more than 190 interface files, and there are a 
large number of config macro controls. When modifying the sysctl 
interface directly in kernel/sysctl.c , conflicts are very easy to occur.

At the same time, the register_sysctl_table() provided by the system can 
easily add the sysctl interface, and there is no conflict of 
kernel/sysctl.c .

Should we add instructions in the patch guide (coding-style.rst 
submitting-patches.rst):
Preferentially use register_sysctl_table() to add a new sysctl 
interface, centralize feature codes, and avoid directly modifying 
kernel/sysctl.c ?

In addition, is it necessary to transfer the architecture-related sysctl 
interface to arch/xxx/kernel/sysctl.c ?

Yes, however I don't think folks know how to do this well. So I think we
just have to do at least start ourselves, and then reflect some of this
in the docs.  The reason that this can be not easy is that we need to
ensure that at an init level we haven't busted dependencies on setting
this. We also just don't have docs on how to do this well.

Well here's an initial attempt to start with fs stuff in a very
conservative way. What do folks think?

I think it'd be nice to keep these in one place for others to reuse,
though that means making them non-static. (And now that I look at them,
I thought they were supposed to be const?)

So much spring cleaning to do. I can add the const and share it.
It seems odd to stuff this into a sysctl.h, types.h doesn't seem
right... I can't think of something proper, so I'll just move them
to sysctl.h for now.

Any thought on the approach though? I mean, I realize that this will
require more of the subsystem specific folks to look at the code and
review, but if this seems fair, I'll get the ball rolling.

I don't see how any of that deals with the current conflict in -next.

You are putting the fs sysctls in the wrong place.  The should live
in fs/ not in fs/proc/.  Otherwise you are pretty much repeating
the problem the problem of poorly located code in another location.

The point is to cleanup the kitchen sink full of knobs everyone from
different subsystem has put in place for random things so to reduce
the amount of edits on the file, so to then avoid the possibility
of merge conflicts.

That's an easy fix, sure, I'll do that.

Sure, alright, well I'll chug on with trying to clean up the kitchen
sink. We can decide where we put items during review.

It is my hope you we can get rid of register_sysctl_table one of these
days.  It was the original interface but today it is just a
compatibility wrapper.

I unfortunately ran out of steam last time before I finished converting
everything over.

Let's give it one more go. I'll start with the fs stuff.

If we register each feature in its own feature code file using 
register() to register the sysctl interface. To avoid merge conflicts 
when different features modify sysctl.c at the same time.
that is, try to Avoid mixing code with multiple features in the same 
code file.

For example, the multiple file interfaces defined in sysctl.c by the 
hung_task feature can  be moved to hung_task.c.

Perhaps later, without centralized sysctl.c ?
Is this better?

This is not generic so it can stay in this file.

This is generic so we can share it, I suggest we just rename this
for now to sysctl_neg_one, export it to a symbol namespace,
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(sysctl_neg_one, SYSCTL) and then import it with
MODULE_IMPORT_NS(SYSCTL)

We want to wrap this around with CONFIG_SYSCTL, so a cleaner solution
is something like this:

diff --git a/kernel/Makefile b/kernel/Makefile
index a42ac3a58994..689718351754 100644

And as per Eric, this is not needed, we can simplify this more, as noted

You want instead something like::

        struct ctl_table_header *srt;

	srt = register_sysctl("kernel", hung_task_sysctls);

And just #ifdef this around CONFIG_SYSCTL.

When I made the patch, I found that only sysctl_writes_strict and 
hung_task_warnings use the neg_one variable, so is it necessary to merge 
and generate the SYSCTL_NEG_ONE variable?

In addition, the SYSCTL symbol namespace has not been created yet. Do I 
just need to add a new member -1 to the sysctl_vals array?

Yes.

I had forgotten about our sysctl_vals, so disregard my request
to use EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(sysctl_neg_one, SYSCTL) and using
MODULE_IMPORT_NS(SYSCTL). Since we are already using these and
have a prefix on the define we should be good.

This looks good.

Just to be clear moving the tables out of kernel/sysctl.c is a related
but slightly different problem.

Today it looks like there are 35 calls of register_sysctl_table
and 9 calls of register_sysctl_paths.

Among them is lib/sysctl_test.c and check-sysctl-docs.

Meanwhile I can only find 5 calls to register_sysctl in the tree
so it looks like I didn't get very far converting things over.

Sure, but also before we go on this crusade, how about we add a few
helpers:

register_sysctl_kernel()
register_sysctl_vm()
register_sysctl_fs()
register_sysctl_debug()
register_sysctl_dev()

That should make it easier to look for these, and shorter. We *know*
this is a common path, given the size of the existing table.

While we're on the spring cleaning topic, I've tried to put what I can
think of for TODO items here, anything else? Feel free to edit, its a
wiki after all.

https://kernelnewbies.org/KernelProjects/proc

Feel free to add wishlist items.

Hmm.

  register_sysctl("kernel")

I don't really care but one character shorter doesn't look like it
really helps.  Not really for grepping and not maintenance as we get a
bunch of trivial one line implementations.

Alright, let's skip the helpers for now.
