2024-01-18seq_buf: Make DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() usableNathan Lynch1-2/+1
Using the address operator on the array doesn't work: ./include/linux/seq_buf.h:27:27: error: initialization of ‘char *’ from incompatible pointer type ‘char (*)[128]’ [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] 27 | .buffer = &__ ## NAME ## _buffer, \ | ^ Apart from fixing that, we can improve DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() by using a compound literal to define the buffer array without attaching a name to it. This makes the macro a single statement, allowing constructs such as: static DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(my_seq_buf, MYSB_SIZE); to work as intended.

2023-10-28seq_buf: Introduce DECLARE_SEQ_BUF and seq_buf_str()Kees Cook1-4/+17
Solve two ergonomic issues with struct seq_buf; 1) Too much boilerplate is required to initialize: struct seq_buf s; char buf[32]; seq_buf_init(s, buf, sizeof(buf)); Instead, we can build this directly on the stack. Provide DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() macro to do this: DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(s, 32); 2) %NUL termination is fragile and requires 2 steps to get a valid C String (and is a layering violation exposing the "internals" of seq_buf): seq_buf_terminate(s); do_something(s->buffer); Instead, we can just return s->buffer directly after terminating it in the refactored seq_buf_terminate(), now known as seq_buf_str(): do_something(seq_buf_str(s)); Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20231027155634.make.260-kees@kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20231026194033.it.702-kees@kernel.org/ Cc: Yosry Ahmed <yosryahmed@google.com> Cc: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Justin Stitt <justinstitt@google.com> Cc: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev> Cc: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Cc: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@chromium.org> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Yun Zhou <yun.zhou@windriver.com> Cc: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Cc: Zhen Lei <thunder.leizhen@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2023-10-20tracing: Move readpos from seq_buf to trace_seqMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)1-4/+1
To make seq_buf more lightweight as a string buf, move the readpos member from seq_buf to its container, trace_seq. That puts the responsibility of maintaining the readpos entirely in the tracing code. If some future users want to package up the readpos with a seq_buf, we can define a new struct then.

2023-04-26seq_buf: Add seq_buf_do_printk() helperSergey Senozhatsky1-0/+2
Sometimes we use seq_buf to format a string buffer, which we then pass to printk(). However, in certain situations the seq_buf string buffer can get too big, exceeding the PRINTKRB_RECORD_MAX bytes limit, and causing printk() to truncate the string. Add a new seq_buf helper. This helper prints the seq_buf string buffer line by line, using \n as a delimiter, rather than passing the whole string buffer to printk() at once.

2019-11-14seq_buf: Add printing formatted hex dumpsPiotr Maziarz1-0/+3
Provided function is an analogue of print_hex_dump(). Implementing this function in seq_buf allows using for multiple purposes (e.g. for tracing) and therefore prevents from code duplication in every layer that uses seq_buf. print_hex_dump() is an essential part of logging data to dmesg. Adding similar capability for other purposes is beneficial to all users. Example usage: seq_buf_hex_dump(seq, "", DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET, 16, 4, buf, ARRAY_SIZE(buf), true); Example output: 00000000: 00000000 ffffff10 ffffff32 ffff3210 ........2....2.. 00000010: ffff3210 83d00437 c0700000 00000000 .2..7.....p..... 00000020: 02010004 0000000f 0000000f 00004002 .............@.. 00000030: 00000fff 00000000 ........

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
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.

2014-11-20seq-buf: Make seq_buf_bprintf() conditional on CONFIG_BINARY_PRINTFSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-2/+5
The function bstr_printf() from lib/vsprnintf.c is only available if CONFIG_BINARY_PRINTF is defined. This is due to the only user currently being the tracing infrastructure, which needs to select this config when tracing is configured. Until there is another user of the binary printf formats, this will continue to be the case. Since seq_buf.c is now lives in lib/ and is compiled even without tracing, it must encompass its use of bstr_printf() which is used by seq_buf_printf(). This too is only used by the tracing infrastructure and is still encapsulated by the CONFIG_BINARY_PRINTF.
