bsd and sysv use different typedefs for unsigned types.
These are in types.h but not in checkpatch, so add them to checkpatch's
ability to know types.
This can avoid false positives for code like:

}

bitmap and its derivatives such as cpumask and nodemask currently only
provide formatting functions which put the output string into the
provided buffer; however, how long this buffer should be isn't defined
anywhere and given that some of these bitmaps can be too large to be
formatted into an on-stack buffer it users sometimes are unnecessarily
forced to come up with creative solutions and compromises for the
buffer just to printk these bitmaps.
There have been a couple different attempts at making this easier.
1. Way back, PeterZ tried printk '%pb' extension with the precision
for bit width - '%.*pb'. This was intuitive and made sense but
unfortunately triggered a compile warning about using precision
for a pointer.
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1336577562.2527.58.camel@twins
2. I implemented bitmap_pr_cont[_list]() and its wrappers for cpumask
and nodemask. This works but PeterZ pointed out that pr_cont's
tendency to produce broken lines when multiple CPUs are printing is
bothering considering the usages.
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1418226774-30215-3-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org
So, this patch is another attempt at teaching printk and friends how
to print bitmaps. It's almost identical to what PeterZ tried with
precision but it uses the field width for the number of bits instead
of precision. The format used is '%*pb[l]', with the optional
trailing 'l' specifying list format instead of hex masks.
This is a valid format string and doesn't trigger compiler warnings;
however, it does make it impossible to specify output field width when
printing bitmaps. I think this is an acceptable trade-off given how
much easier it makes printing bitmaps and that we don't have any
in-kernel user which is using the field width specification. If any
future user wants to use field width with a bitmap, it'd have to
format the bitmap into a string buffer and then print that buffer with
width spec, which isn't different from how it should be done now.
This patch implements bitmap[_list]_string() which are called from the
vsprintf pointer() formatting function. The implementation is mostly
identical to bitmap_scn[list]printf() except that the output is
performed in the vsprintf way. These functions handle formatting into
too small buffers and sprintf() family of functions report the correct
overrun output length.
bitmap_scn[list]printf() are now thin wrappers around scnprintf().

bitmap implements two variants of scnprintf functions to format a bitmap
into a string and cpumask and nodemask wrap them to provide equivalent
interfaces. The scnprintf family of functions require a string buffer as
an output target which complicates code paths which just want to print out
the mask through printk for informational or debug purposes as they have
to worry about how large the buffer should be and whether it's too large
to allocate on stack.
Neither cpumask or nodemask provides a guildeline on how large the target
buffer should be forcing users come up with their own solutions - some
allocate an arbitrarily sized buffer which is small enough to allocate on
stack but may be too short in corner cases, other come up with a custom
upper limit calculation considering the output format, some allocate the
buffer dynamically while one resorted to using lock to synchronize access
to a static buffer.
This is an artificial problem which is being solved repeatedly for no
benefit. In a lot of cases, the output area already exists and can be
targeted directly making the intermediate buffer unnecessary. This
patchset teaches printf family of functions how to format bitmaps and
replace the dedicated formatting functions with it.
Pointer formatting is extended to cover bitmap formatting. It uses the
field width for the number of bits instead of precision. The format used
is '%*pb[l]', with the optional trailing 'l' specifying list format
instead of hex masks. For more details, please see 0002.
This patch (of 31):
Currently, the formatting and parsing functions in cpumask.h use
nr_cpumask_bits like other cpumask functions; however, nr_cpumask_bits
is either NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids depending on CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK.
This leads to inconsistent behaviors.
With CONFIG_NR_CPUS=512 and !CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK
# cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000
# cat /proc/self/status | grep Cpus_allowed:
Cpus_allowed: f
With CONFIG_NR_CPUS=1024 and CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK (fedora default)
# cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
0
# cat /proc/self/status | grep Cpus_allowed:
Cpus_allowed: f
Note that /proc/self/status is always using nr_cpu_ids regardless of
config. This is because seq cpumask formattings functions always use
nr_cpu_ids.
Given that the same output fields may switch between the two forms,
converging on nr_cpu_ids always isn't too likely to surprise userland.
This patch updates the formatting and parsing functions in cpumask.h
to always use nr_cpu_ids. There's no point in dealing with CPUs which
aren't even possible on the machine.

Instead of potentially passing over the string twice in case c is not
found, just keep track of the last occurrence. According to
bloat-o-meter, this also cuts the generated code by a third (54 vs 36
bytes). Oh, and we get rid of those 7-space indented lines.

When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid
making a separate copy of its name. It's currently only used for sysfs
attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged.
There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted
dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the
rodata section.
Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(),
there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around. Remove it.

kstrdup() is often used to duplicate strings where neither source neither
destination will be ever modified. In such case we can just reuse the
source instead of duplicating it. The problem is that we must be sure
that the source is non-modifiable and its life-time is long enough.
I suspect the good candidates for such strings are strings located in
kernel .rodata section, they cannot be modifed because the section is
read-only and their life-time is equal to kernel life-time.
This small patchset proposes alternative version of kstrdup -
kstrdup_const, which returns source string if it is located in .rodata
otherwise it fallbacks to kstrdup. To verify if the source is in
.rodata function checks if the address is between sentinels
__start_rodata, __end_rodata. I guess it should work with all
architectures.
The main patch is accompanied by four patches constifying kstrdup for
cases where situtation described above happens frequently.
I have tested the patchset on mobile platform (exynos4210-trats) and it
saves 3272 string allocations. Since minimal allocation is 32 or 64
bytes depending on Kconfig options the patchset saves respectively about
100KB or 200KB of memory.
Stats from tested platform show that the main offender is sysfs:
By caller:
2260 __kernfs_new_node
631 clk_register+0xc8/0x1b8
318 clk_register+0x34/0x1b8
51 kmem_cache_create
12 alloc_vfsmnt
By string (with count >= 5):
883 power
876 subsystem
135 parameters
132 device
61 iommu_group
...
This patch (of 5):
Add an alternative version of kstrdup which returns pointer to constant
char array. The function checks if input string is in persistent and
read-only memory section, if yes it returns the input string, otherwise it
fallbacks to kstrdup.
kstrdup_const is accompanied by kfree_const performing conditional memory
deallocation of the string.
