sprintf() reliably returns the number of characters printed, so we don't need to ask strlen() where we are. Also replace calling sprintf("%02x") in a loop with the much simpler bin2hex().

Since commit 1f65f947 ("checkpatch: add checks for question mark and colon spacing") back in 2008, checkpatch has reported false positive for asm volatile uses of "::" checkpatch thinks colons should always have spaces around it. Add an exception for colons with colons on either side for this valid asm volatile (and c++) use. Signed-off-by:

If a patch touches multiple files, the --fix and --fix-inplace option doesn't keep the proper line count and makes the new patch file not able to be applied via bad offset line numbers when lines are added or deleted by the --fix option. Dunno how that extra backslash snuck in there. Signed-off-by:

ENOSYS is the mechanism used by user code to detect whether the running kernel implements a given system call. It should not be returned by anything except an unimplemented system call. Unfortunately, it is rather frequently used in the kernel to indicate that various new functions of existing system calls are not implemented. This should be discouraged. Improve the comment in errno.h to help clarify ENOSYS's purpose. Signed-off-by:

ENOSYS means that a nonexistent system call was called. We have a bad habit of using it for things like invalid operations on otherwise valid syscalls. We should avoid this in new code. Pervasive incorrect usage of ENOSYS came up at the kernel summit ABI review discussion. Let's see if checkpatch can help. I'll submit a separate patch for include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h.

const objects shouldn't be __read_mostly. They are read-only. Marking these objects as __read_mostly causes section conflicts with LTO linking. So add a test to try to avoid this issue. Signed-off-by:

Code such as: x = timercmp(&now, &end, <); Will currently trigger a checkpatch error. e.g. ERROR: spaces required around that '<' This is because the "Ignore operators passed as parameters" check looks only for a comma following the operator. Improve the check by also looking for a close parenthesis. Signed-off-by:Sam Bobroff <sam.bobroff@au1.ibm.com> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by:

I hadn't had enough coffee when I wrote this. Currently, the final increment of buf depends on the value loaded from the table, and causes gcc to emit a cmov immediately before the return. It is smarter to let it depend on r, since the increment can then be computed in parallel with the final load/store pair. It also shaves 16 bytes of .text. Signed-off-by:

Bartosz Golaszewski authored
This series unduplicates the code used to find the member in an array closest to 'x'. The first patch adds a macro implementing the algorithm in two flavors - for arrays sorted in ascending and descending order. The second updates Documentation/CodingStyle on the naming convention for local variables in macros resembling functions. Other three patches replace duplicated code with calls to one of these macros in some hwmon drivers. This patch (of 5): Searching for the member of an array closest to 'x' is duplicated in several places. Add a new include - util_macros.h - and two macros that implement this algorithm for arrays sorted both in ascending and descending order. Uses linear search. Signed-off-by:

bucket_find_contain() will search the bucket list for a dma_debug_entry. When the entry isn't found it needs to search other buckets too, since only the start address of a dma range is hashed (which might be in a different bucket). A copy of the dma_debug_entry is used to get the previous hash bucket but when its list is searched the original dma_debug_entry is to be used not its modified copy. This fixes false "device driver tries to sync DMA memory it has not allocated" warnings. Signed-off-by:

The most expensive part of decimal conversion is the divisions by 10 (albeit done using reciprocal multiplication with appropriately chosen constants). I decided to see if one could eliminate around half of these multiplications by emitting two digits at a time, at the cost of a 200 byte lookup table, and it does indeed seem like there is something to be gained, especially on 64 bits. Microbenchmarking shows improvements ranging from -50% (for numbers uniformly distributed in [0, 2^64-1]) to -25% (for numbers heavily biased toward the smaller end, a more realistic distribution). On a larger scale, perf shows that top, one of the big consumers of /proc data, uses 0.5-1.0% fewer cpu cycles. I had to jump through some hoops to get the 32 bit code to compile and run on my 64 bit machine, so I'm not sure how relevant these numbers are, but just for comparison the microbenchmark showed improvements between -30% and -10%. The bloat-o-meter costs are around 150 bytes (the generated code is a little smaller, so it's not the full 200 bytes) on both 32 and 64 bit. I'm aware that extra cache misses won't show up in a microbenchmark as used above, but on the other hand decimal conversions often happen in bulk (for example in the case of top). I have of course tested that the new code generates the same output as the old, for both the first and last 1e10 numbers in [0,2^64-1] and 4e9 'random' numbers in-between.

This patchset does rework to find_bit function family to achieve better performance, and decrease size of text. All rework is done in patch 1. Patches 2 and 3 are about code moving and renaming. It was boot-tested on x86_64 and MIPS (big-endian) machines. Performance tests were ran on userspace with code like this: /* addr[] is filled from /dev/urandom */ start = clock(); while (ret < nbits) ret = find_next_bit(addr, nbits, ret + 1); end = clock(); printf("%ld\t", (unsigned long) end - start); On Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz measurements are: (for find_next_bit, nbits is 8M, for find_first_bit - 80K) find_next_bit: find_first_bit: new current new current 26932 43151 14777 14925 26947 43182 14521 15423 26507 43824 15053 14705 27329 43759 14473 14777 26895 43367 14847 15023 26990 43693 15103 15163 26775 43299 15067 15232 27282 42752 14544 15121 27504 43088 14644 14858 26761 43856 14699 15193 26692 43075 14781 14681 27137 42969 14451 15061 ... ... find_next_bit performance gain is 35-40%; find_first_bit - no measurable difference. On ARM machine, there is arch-specific implementation for find_bit. Thanks a lot to George Spelvin and Rasmus Villemoes for hints and helpful discussions. This patch (of 3): New implementations takes less space in source file (see diffstat) and in object. For me it's 710 vs 453 bytes of text. It also shows better performance. find_last_bit description fixed due to obvious typo. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: include linux/bitmap.h, per Rasmus] Signed-off-by: -

Commit 9c521a20 ("crypto: api - remove instance when test failed") tried to grab a module reference count before the module was even set. Worse, it then goes on to free the module reference count after it is set so you quickly end up with a negative module reference count which prevents people from using any instances belonging to that module. This patch moves the module initialisation before the reference count. Reported-by:
