4f4cfa6c56 docs: admin-guide: add a series of orphaned documents
There are lots of documents that belong to the admin-guide but
are on random places (most under Documentation root dir).

Move them to the admin guide.

898bd37a92 docs: block: convert to ReST
Rename the block documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

d43fdae7ba partitions/aix: append null character to print data from disk
Even if properly initialized, the lvname array (i.e., strings)
is read from disk, and might contain corrupt data (e.g., lack
the null terminating character for strings).

So, make sure the partition name string used in pr_warn() has
the null terminating character.

14cb2c8a6c partitions/aix: fix usage of uninitialized lv_info and lvname structures
The if-block that sets a successful return value in aix_partition()
uses 'lvip[].pps_per_lv' and 'n[].name' potentially uninitialized.

For example, if 'numlvs' is zero or alloc_lvn() fails, neither is
initialized, but are used anyway if alloc_pvd() succeeds after it.

So, make the alloc_pvd() call conditional on their initialization.

This has been hit when attaching an apparently corrupted/stressed
AIX LUN, misleading the kernel to pr_warn() invalid data and hang.

    [...] partition (null) (11 pp's found) is not contiguous
    [...] partition (null) (2 pp's found) is not contiguous

fad953ce0b treewide: Use array_size() in vzalloc()
The vzalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:

        vzalloc(a * b)

with:
        vzalloc(array_size(a, b))

as well as handling cases of:

        vzalloc(a * b * c)

with:

        vzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        vzalloc(4 * 1024)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

6da2ec5605 treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

I meet strange filesystem corruption issue recently, the reason
is there are overlaps partitions in cmdline partition argument.

This patch add verifier for cmdline partition, then if there are
overlaps partitions, cmdline_partition will log a warning. We don't
treat overlaps partition as a error:

5f15684bd5 partitions/msdos: Unable to mount UFS 44bsd partitions
UFS partitions from newer versions of FreeBSD 10 and 11 use relative
addressing for their subpartitions. But older versions of FreeBSD still
use absolute addressing just like OpenBSD and NetBSD.

Instead of simply testing for a FreeBSD partition, the code needs to
also test if the starting offset of the C subpartition is zero.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

223220356d partitions/msdos: FreeBSD UFS2 file systems are not recognized
The code in block/partitions/msdos.c recognizes FreeBSD, OpenBSD
and NetBSD partitions and does a reasonable job picking out OpenBSD
and NetBSD UFS subpartitions.

But for FreeBSD the subpartitions are always "bad".

    Kernel: <bsd:bad subpartition - ignored

Though all 3 of these BSD systems use UFS as a file system, only
FreeBSD uses relative start addresses in the subpartition
declarations.

The following patch fixes this for FreeBSD partitions and leaves
the code for OpenBSD and NetBSD intact:

c5082b70ad partitions/efi: Fix integer overflow in GPT size calculation
If a GUID Partition Table claims to have more than 2**25 entries, the
calculation of the partition table size in alloc_read_gpt_entries() will
overflow a 32-bit integer and not enough space will be allocated for the
table.

Nothing seems to get written out of bounds, but later efi_partition() will
read up to 32768 bytes from a 128 byte buffer, possibly OOPSing or exposing
information to /proc/partitions and uevents.

The problem exists on both 64-bit and 32-bit platforms.

Fix the overflow and also print a meaningful debug message if the table
size is too large.

9c8747167e block: atari: Return early for unsupported sector size
For 4K LBA or very large disks, atari_partition can easily get tricked
into thinking it has found an Atari partition table.  Depending on the
data in the disk, it ends up creating partitions with awkward lengths.

We saw logs like this while playing with fio.

[5.625867] nvme2n1: AHDI p2
[5.625872] nvme2n1: p2 size 2910030523 extends beyond EOD, truncated

People has had issues with misinterpreted AHDI partition tables for a long
time, see this BSD thread from 1995, for example.

https://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-atari/1995/11/19/0001.html

Since the atari partition, according to the spec, doesn't even support
sector sizes with more than 512, a quick sanity check is reasonable to
just bail out early, before even attempting to read sector 0.

Since this is just a read out of bounds it's not that bad, but the

the destination array can contain garbage when we read beyond the end of

However, we may run into these "bad sizes" in the real world if someone

this case used to work (even without using force_gpt), keep it working

6b02fa59a7 partitions/efi: loosen check fot pmbr size in lba
Matt found that commit 27a7c64217 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr
size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot.  The
reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of
the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA.  While most disk
partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics,
Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit
limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1].

Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk
or 0xFFFFFFFF.  No tool in its right mind would set it to any value
other than these.

One of the biggest problems with GPT is compatibility with older, non-GPT
systems.  The problem is addressed by creating hybrid mbrs, an extension,
or variant, of the traditional protective mbr.  This contains, apart from
the 0xEE partition, up three additional primary partitions that point to
the same space marked by up to three GPT partitions.  The result is that
legacy OSs can see the three required MBR partitions and at the same time
ignore the GPT-aware partitions that protect the GPT structures.

While hybrid MBRs are hacks, workarounds and simply not part of the GPT
standard, they do exist and we have no way around them.  For instance, by
default, OSX creates a hybrid scheme when using multi-OS booting.

In order for Linux to properly discover protective MBRs, it must be made
aware of devices that have hybrid MBRs.  No functionality is changed by
this patch, just a debug message informing the user of the MBR scheme that
is being used.

3e69ac3440 partitions/efi: do not require gpt partition to begin at sector 1
When detecting a valid protective MBR, the Linux kernel isn't picky about
the partition (1-4) the 0xEE is at, but, unlike other operating systems,
it does require it to begin at the second sector (sector 1).  This check,
apart from it not being enforced by UEFI, and causing Linux to potentially
fail to detect any *valid* partitions on the disk, can present problems
when dealing with hybrid MBRs[1].

For compatibility reasons, if the first partition is hybridized, the 0xEE
partition must be small enough to ensure that it only protects the GPT
data structures - as opposed to the the whole disk in a protective MBR.
This problem is very well described by Rod Smith[1]: where MBR-only
partitioning programs (such as older versions of fdisk) can see some of
the disk space as unallocated, thus loosing the purpose of the 0xEE
partition's protection of GPT data structures.

By dropping this check, this patch enables Linux to be more flexible when
probing for GPT disklabels.

33afd7a7df partitions/efi: check pmbr record's starting lba
Per the UEFI Specs 2.4, June 2013, the starting lba of the partition that
has the EFI GPT (0xEE) must be set to 0x00000001 - this is obviously the
LBA of the GPT Partition Header.

c2ebdc2439 partitions/efi: use lba-aware partition records
The kernel's GPT implementation currently uses the generic 'struct
partition' type for dealing with legacy MBR partition records.  While this
is is useful for disklabels that we designed for CHS addressing, such as
msdos, it doesn't adapt well to newer standards that use LBA instead, such
as GUID partition tables.  Furthermore, these generic partition structures
do not have all the required fields to properly follow the UEFI specs.

While a CHS address can be translated to LBA, it's much simpler and
cleaner to just replace the partition type.  This patch adds a new
'gpt_record' type that is fully compliant with EFI and will allow, in the
next patches, to add more checks to properly verify a protective MBR,
which is paramount to probing a device that makes use of GPT.

f8f066033b partitions/msdos: enumerate also AIX LVM partitions
Graft AIX partitions enumeration into partitions/msdos.c

There is already a AIX disks detection logic in msdos.c.  When an AIX disk
has been found, and if configured to, call the aix partitions recognizer.
This avoids removal of AIX disks protection from msdos.c, avoids code
duplication, and ensures that AIX partitions enumeration is called before
plain msdos partitions enumeration.

6ceea22bbb partitions: add aix lvm partition support files
Add partitions/aix.h and partitions/aix.c.

AIX LVM permits to make "logical volumes" which are made of multiple
slices of multiple disks.  The new code allows only access to the
"logical volumes" which are made of one slice on the probed disk, a
slice being a contiguous disk area.  The code also detects "logical
volumes" made of multiple slices on the probed disk, but can not
describe them to the partition layer, because the partition layer
generic code does not support that.  When such non-contiguous "logical
volumes" are detected, a diagnostic message is printed.
