[PATCH 01/16] ARM: warnings in arch/arm/include/asm/uaccess.h

[PATCH 01/16] ARM: warnings in arch/arm/include/asm/uaccess.h

[Arnd Bergmann]

On NOMMU ARM, the __addr_ok() and __range_ok() macros do not evaluate
their arguments, which may lead to harmless build warnings in some
code where the variables are not used otherwise. Adding a cast to void
gets rid of the warning and does not make any semantic changes.

Without this patch, building at91x40_defconfig results in:

fs/read_write.c: In function 'rw_copy_check_uvector':
fs/read_write.c:684:9: warning: unused variable 'buf' [-Wunused-variable]

[PATCH 02/16] ARM: binfmt_flat: unused variable 'persistent'

[Arnd Bergmann]

The flat_get_addr_from_rp() macro does not use the 'persistent' argument
on ARM, causing a harmless compiler warning. A cast to void removes
that warning.

The oak variant doesn't, and should set the DONT_USE_INTR

[PATCH 05/16] vfs: bogus warnings in fs/namei.c

[Arnd Bergmann]

The follow_link() function always initializes its *p argument,
or returns an error, but not all versions of gcc figure this

[PATCH 06/16] mm/slob: use min_t() to compare ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN

[Arnd Bergmann]

The definition of ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN is architecture dependent
and can be either of type size_t or int. Comparing that value
with ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN can cause harmless warnings on
platforms where they are different. Since both are always
small positive integer numbers, using the size_t type to compare
them is safe and gets rid of the warning.

Without this patch, building ARM collie_defconfig results in:

[PATCH 07/16] cgroup: fix warning when building without any subsys

[Arnd Bergmann]

In a configuration where the base cgroup support is enabled but
every single cgroup subsys is turned off, CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT
is zero, which causes the sanity check code in cgroup_load_subsys
to trigger:

       BUG_ON(ss->subsys_id >= CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT);
       BUG_ON(subsys[ss->subsys_id] != ss);

Gcc first confirms that subsys_id cannot be 0 or larger and consequently
warns in the second line.

kernel/cgroup.c: In function 'cgroup_load_subsys':
kernel/cgroup.c:4326:38: warning: array subscript is below array bounds [-Warray-bounds]

Since the subsys_id can never be less than zero, we can just change the
type to an unsigned int, which makes the warning go away.

Found by building ARM cns3420vb_defconfig.

[PATCH 08/16] ipvs: fix ip_vs_set_timeout debug messages

[Arnd Bergmann]

The ip_vs_set_timeout function sets timeouts for TCP and UDP, which
can be enabled independently at compile time. The debug message
always prints both timeouts that are passed into the function,
but if one is disabled, the message will show uninitialized data.

This splits the debug message into two separte IP_VS_DBG statements
that are in the same #ifdef section to ensure we only print the
text about what is actually going on.

Without this patch, building ARM ixp4xx_defconfig results in:

The __devinit section is going away soon, but while it's

The sharpsl_pcmcia_ops structure gets passed into

[PATCH 13/16] ARM: be really quiet when building with 'make -s'

Sometimes we want the kernel build process to only print messages

[PATCH 14/16] ARM: pxa: armcore: fix PCI PIO warnings

[Arnd Bergmann]

The it8152 PCI host used on the pxa/cm_x2xx machines
uses the old-style I/O window registration. This should
eventually get converted to pci_ioremap_io() but for
now, let's cast the IT8152_IO_BASE constant to an integer
type to get rid of the warnings.

Without this patch, building cm_x2xx_defconfig results in:

arch/arm/common/it8152.c: In function 'it8152_pci_setup':
arch/arm/common/it8152.c:287:18: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast [enabled by default]

[PATCH 15/16] spi/s3c64xx: use correct dma_transfer_direction type

[Arnd Bergmann]

There is a subtle difference between dma_transfer_direction and
dma_data_direction: the former is used by the dmaengine framework,
while the latter is used by the dma-mapping API. Although the
purpose is comparable, the actual values are different and must
not be mixed. In this case, the driver just wants to use
dma_transfer_direction.

Without this patch, building s3c6400_defconfig results in:

drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c: In function 's3c64xx_spi_dmacb':
drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c:239:21: warning: comparison between

[PATCH 16/16] ARM: pass -marm to gcc by default for both C and assembler

[Arnd Bergmann]

The Linaro cross toolchain and probably others nowadays default to
building in THUMB2 mode. When building a kernel for a CPU that does
not support THUMB2, the compiler complains about incorrect flags.
We can work around this by setting -marm for all non-T2 builds.

Without this patch, building assabet_defconfig results in:

usr/initramfs_data.S:1:0: warning: target CPU does not support THUMB instructions [enabled by default]
arch/arm/nwfpe/entry.S:1:0: warning: target CPU does not support THUMB instructions [enabled by default]
firmware/cis/PCMLM28.cis.gen.S:1:0: warning: target CPU does not support THUMB instructions [enabled by default]
(and many more)

I don't think you need "call cc-option" with -marm.  Those gcc versions 
that might not accept -marm have not been able to compile the kernel for 
a long long time now.  Otherwise...

	Are there any CONFIG_IP_VS_PROTO_xxx options in this
default config? It is a waste of memory if IPVS is compiled
without any protocols.

	There are many __ip_vs_get_timeouts callers but
just one calls memset(&t, 0, sizeof(t)) before that,
problem only for ip_vs_genl_set_config and ip_vs_set_timeout.

	To be safe, can we move this memset into
__ip_vs_get_timeouts instead of playing games with defines?:

	memset(t, 0, sizeof(*t));

	This debug message will be more precise in showing the
changed values if we replace the __ip_vs_get_timeouts 
call in ip_vs_genl_set_config with memset(&t, 0, sizeof(t)).
Then we will see 0 for values that are not changed/supported.

CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT is already gone in mainline.  I suppose
this is no longer necessary?

Ah, you are right. I can confirm the problem is gone, and I'll drop

ipvs: initialize returned data in do_ip_vs_get_ctl

As reported by a gcc warning, the do_ip_vs_get_ctl does not initalize
all the members of the ip_vs_timeout_user structure it returns if
at least one of the TCP or UDP protocols is disabled for ipvs. 

This makes sure that the data is always initialized, before it is
returned as a response to IPVS_CMD_GET_CONFIG or printed as a
debug message in IPVS_CMD_SET_CONFIG.

Without this patch, building ARM ixp4xx_defconfig results in:

	That is what we want. If you plan another submission
you can add empty line before this memset and to replace
the __ip_vs_get_timeouts call in ip_vs_genl_set_config with
memset but they are cosmetic changes. Or may be Simon will
take care about the coding style when applying the change.

I don't try to read too much into our defconfigs. We have 140 of them
on ARM, and they are mainly useful to give a reasonable build coverage,
but I wouldn't expect them to be actually used on that hardware.

I'll leave it up to Krzysztof to send a patch for this if he wants.

I'd prefer Simon to pick up the patch. He should also decide whether he wants
to add it to stable. In theory, this is a small leak of kernel stack data
to user space, but as you say in practice it should not happen because it
only exists for silly configurations that nobody should be using.

AFAICT, removing the call to __ip_vs_get_timeouts in do_ip_vs_get_ctl would
be a semantic change for the case where a user sends a IPVS_CMD_SET_CONFIG
message without without the complete set of attributes inside it. The current
behavior is to leave the timeouts alone, replacing the __ip_vs_get_timeouts
with a memset would zero them. I left this part alone then.

  Well, I'm somewhat sceptical to this approach. I agree that bogus
warnings are not nice but later when the code is changed and possibly real
use without initialization is added, we won't notice it. Without changing
anything, we'd at least have a chance of catching it with gcc versions
which were clever enough to not warn with the original code. Or
alternatively if we unconditionally initialized the variable that would get
rid of the warning and made the code more future-proof (that's what I
usually end up doing)... I don't really care that much about the chosen
solution, Al is the one to decide. But I wanted to point out there are
downsides to your solution.

Hi,

sorry for being a bit slow, it was a long weekend here.
This patch looks reasonable and I think it is appropriate for stable.
I'll see about getting it merged accordingly.

Well, my idea was that I would prefer the patches go through some other tree
besides arm-soc since they are not really the main purpose for this tree.

The core ARM patches in particular should go through Russell's ARM tree.
I have a few more that come in during the merge window and plan to send
him a pull request for those.

I'll drop the patch for now and won't send it from my tree then. I agree
that uninitialized_var() is not ideal, but none of the alternatives seemed
better.

With my latest compiler, I don't actually see the warnings any more, so
maybe someone fixed gcc instead, or this went away after another change.
I'll let you know if it comes back so we can discuss about a better fix then.

Update: I could actually reproduce the problem now, but it only happens when
building with 'gcc -s' (i.e. CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE). It does happen
with both gcc-4.6 and with gcc-4.8, and on both x86-64 and ARM. An alternative
patch that would also make it go away is the variant below, but I think that's
even worse than the first version I suggested because it makes the binary
output slightly worse by adding an unnecessary initialization when building with
'make -s'.

  Hum, dumb compiler... I like this patch better and since the extra
initialization is on error path only, I don't think it matters. But
whatever Al likes better.

I can live with that, provided that you give it sane commit message and
your s-o-b.

[PATCH v2] vfs: bogus warnings in fs/namei.c

[Arnd Bergmann]

The follow_link() function always initializes its *p argument,
or returns an error, but when building with 'gcc -s', the compiler
gets confused by the __always_inline attribute to the function
and can no longer detect where the cookie was initialized.

The solution is to always initialize the pointer from follow_link,
even in the error path. When building with -O2, this has zero impact
