Following the rework in e076ab2a ("btrfs: shrink delalloc pages instead of full inodes") the nr variable is no longer passed by reference to start_delalloc_inodes hence it cannot change. Additionally we are always guaranteed for it to be positive number hence it's redundant to have it as a condition in the loop. Simply remove that usage.

It's currently u64 which gets instantly translated either to LONG_MAX (if U64_MAX is passed) or cast to an unsigned long (which is in fact, wrong because writeback_control::nr_to_write is a signed, long type). Just convert the function's argument to be long time which obviates the need to manually convert u64 value to a long. Adjust all call sites which pass U64_MAX to pass LONG_MAX. Finally ensure that in shrink_delalloc the u64 is converted to a long without overflowing, resulting in a negative number.

After commit 040ee612 ("Btrfs: send, improve clone range") we do not use anymore the data_offset field of struct backref_ctx, as after that we do all the necessary checks for the data offset of file extent items at clone_range(). Since there are no more users of data_offset from that structure, remove it.

Instead of having three 'if' to handle non-NULL return value consolidate this in one 'if (ret)'. That way the code is more obvious: - Always drop delete_unused_bgs_mutex if ret is not NULL - If ret is negative -> goto done - If it's 1 -> reset ret to 0, release the path and finish the loop.

I noticed that shared ref entries in ref-verify didn't have the proper owner set, which caused me to think there was something seriously wrong. However the problem is if we have a parent we simply weren't filling out the owner part of the reference, even though we have it. Fix this by making sure we set all the proper fields when we modify a reference, this way we'll have the proper owner if a problem happens and we don't waste time thinking we're updating the wrong level.

I noticed that sometimes I would have the wrong level printed out with ref-verify while testing some error injection related problems. This is because we only get the level from the main extent item, but our references could go off the current leaf into another, and at that point we lose our level. Fix this by keeping track of the last tree block level that we found, the same way we keep track of our bytenr and num_bytes, in case we happen to wander into another leaf while still processing the references for a bytenr.

I was attempting to reproduce a problem that Zygo hit, but my error injection wasn't firing for a few of the common calls to btrfs_should_cancel_balance. This is because the compiler decided to inline it at these spots. Keep this from happening by explicitly marking the function as noinline so that error injection will always work.

While doing error injection I would sometimes get a corrupt file system. This is because I was injecting errors at btrfs_search_slot, but would only do it one time per stack. This uncovered a problem in commit_fs_roots, where if we get an error we would just break. However we're in a nested loop, the first loop being a loop to find all the dirty fs roots, and then subsequent root updates would succeed clearing the error value. This isn't likely to happen in real scenarios, however we could potentially get a random ENOMEM once and then not again, and we'd end up with a corrupted file system. Fix this by moving the error checking around a bit to the main loop, as this is the only place where something will fail, and return the error as soon as it occurs. With this patch my reproducer no longer corrupts the file system.

Unlike signed integer overflow, this is not undefined behavior, but it is often unintentional. This sanitizer does not check for lossy implicit conversions performed before such a computation (see -fsanitize=implicit-conversion). and that fires when the (intentional) EFI_VA_START/END defines overflow an unsigned long, leading to the assertion expressions not getting optimized away (on GCC they do)... However, those checks are superfluous: the runtime services mapping code already makes sure the ranges don't overshoot EFI_VA_END as the EFI mapping range is hardcoded. On each runtime services call, it is switched to the EFI-specific PGD and even if mappings manage to escape that last PGD, this won't remain unnoticed for long. So rip them out.

Michael Kerrisk suggested that, from an API perspective, it is a bad idea to share the PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ defines between the prctl operation and the selector variable. Therefore, define two new constants to be used by SUD's selector variable and update the corresponding documentation and test cases. While this changes the API syscall user dispatch has never been part of a Linux release, it will show up for the first time in 5.11.

Commit 29915524 ("entry: Drop usage of TIF flags in the generic syscall code") introduced a bug on architectures using the generic syscall entry code, in which processes stopped by PTRACE_SYSCALL do not trap on syscall return after receiving a TIF_SINGLESTEP. The reason is that the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP flag is overloaded to cause the trap after a system call is executed, but since the above commit, the syscall call handler only checks for the SYSCALL_WORK flags on the exit work. Split the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP such that it only means single-step mode, and create a new type of SYSCALL_WORK to request a trap immediately after a syscall in single-step mode. In the current implementation, the SYSCALL_WORK flag shadows the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag for simplicity. Update x86 to flip this bit when a tracer enables single stepping.

This reverts commit 1abdfe70. This change is broken and not solving any problem it claims to solve. Robin reported that cpumask_local_spread() now returns any cpu out of cpu_possible_mask in case that NOHZ_FULL is disabled (runtime or compile time). It can also return any offline or not-present CPU in the housekeeping mask. Before that it was returning a CPU out of online_cpu_mask. While the function is racy against CPU hotplug if the caller does not protect against it, the actual use cases are not caring much about it as they use it mostly as hint for: - the user space affinity hint which is unused by the kernel - memory node selection which is just suboptimal - network queue affinity which might fail but is handled gracefully But the occasional fail vs. hotplug is very different from returning anything from possible_cpu_mask which can have a large amount of offline CPUs obviously. The changelog of the commit claims: "The current implementation of cpumask_local_spread() does not respect the isolated CPUs, i.e., even if a CPU has been isolated for Real-Time task, it will return it to the caller for pinning of its IRQ threads. Having these unwanted IRQ threads on an isolated CPU adds up to a latency overhead." The only correct part of this changelog is: "The current implementation of cpumask_local_spread() does not respect the isolated CPUs." Everything else is just disjunct from reality.
