docs: Add a new text describing how to report bugs
Add a mostly finished document describing how to report issues with the
Linux kernel to its developers. It is designed to be a lot more straight
forward and easier to follow than the current text about this
(Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst); at the same time the new
text should be more helpful for people unfamiliar with the topic, as it
provides a lot more details, too.
The main work on the text is done, but some polishing is still needed.
The text also needs to be reviewed by more people and a few issues still
might need some discussion. To make these tasks easier, it was decided
([1]) to add this document to the kernel sources in parallel to the
existing text; the latter will be removed once this text is considered
good enough(tm).
This document is quite long and provides a lot of details, but was
carefully crafted to make sure it's can also serve people that are in a
hurry. That's mainly achieved by having a TDLR and a step-by-step guide,
which should be good enough for quite a lot of people. Everybody that
wants or need more explanations can find them in a reference section,
which describes all the needed steps in detail.
Thanks to this structure the text can work for kernel developers that
just need to look something up, experienced FLOSS contributors that are
unfamiliar with the kernel's bug reporting workflow, and users reporting
something upstream for the first time. The text is thus a bit like the
kernel itself, which works well for embedded machines, a typical desktop
PC, cloud servers, and HPC.
The document was written in the hope it will improve the quality of the
bug reports, especially those that come from people unfamiliar with how
Linux kernel development works. Sadly quite a few reports from this
group are currently of poor quality and/or get submitted to the wrong
place. Part of the problem is the old reporting-bugs document, as it
makes its essence hard to grasp; it's and also inaccurate and slightly
outdated in a few spots. Due to this quite a few valid reports are
ignored in the end, which is annoying for those that compiled them and
bad for the kernel's quality.
The document near the top points out that it's still unfinished, but
nevertheless ready for consumption. Those few areas in the text that
might need some further discussion contain a note pointing this out.
Besides lack of review from core developers there is only one major
issue left: the section 'Decode failure message' is known to be
outdated: it's waiting for someone familiar with the topic to write
something up or give at least provide some hints and pointers what to
write there.
The new document is dual-licensed under GPL-2.0+ or CC-BY-4.0. The
latter is way more liberal and makes it attractive to use this text as a
base when writing about this topic on websites or in books. This
hopefully increases the chances that such texts are accurate and stick
to official way of doing things.

Sphinx 3.1 introduced namespaces for C cross-references. With this,
each C domain type/function declaration is put inside the namespace that
was active at the time of its declaration.
Add support for automatic cross-referencing inside C namespaces by
checking whether the corresponding source file had a C namespace Sphinx

the global scope.
This assumes there's only one namespace (if any) per rst file.

Further there was only one user ever.
- Android's loadfont, busybox and console-tools only ever use OP_GET
and OP_SET
- fbset documentation only mentions the kernel cmdline font: option,
not anything else.
- systemd used OP_COPY before release 232 published in Nov 2016
Now unfortunately the crucial report seems to have gone down with
gmane, and the commit message doesn't say much. But the pull request
hints at OP_COPY being broken
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3651
So in other words, this never worked, and the only project which
foolishly every tried to use it, realized that rather quickly too.
Instead of trying to fix security issues here on dead code by adding
missing checks, fix the entire thing by removing the functionality.
Note that systemd code using the OP_COPY function ignored the return
value, so it doesn't matter what we're doing here really - just in
case a lone server somewhere happens to be extremely unlucky and
running an affected old version of systemd. The relevant code from
font_copy_to_all_vcs() in systemd was:
/* copy font from active VT, where the font was uploaded to */
cfo.op = KD_FONT_OP_COPY;
cfo.height = vcs.v_active-1; /* tty1 == index 0 */
(void) ioctl(vcfd, KDFONTOP, &cfo);
Note this just disables the ioctl, garbage collecting the now unused
callbacks is left for -next.
v2: Tetsuo found the old mail, which allowed me to find it on another
archive. Add the link too.

"Greg reported a problem due to the fact that Android tests use procfs
files to test splice, which stopped working with the changes for
set_fs() removal.
This series adds read_iter support for seq_file, and uses those for
various proc files using seq_file to restore splice read support"
[ Side note: Christoph initially had a scripted "move everything over"
patch, which looks fine, but I personally would prefer us to actively
discourage splice() on random files. So this does just the minimal
basic core set of proc file op conversions.
For completeness, and in case people care, that script was
sed -i -e 's/\.proc_read\(\s*=\s*\)seq_read/\.proc_read_iter\1seq_read_iter/g'
but I'll wait and see if somebody has a strong argument for using
splice on random small /proc files before I'd run it on the whole

futex: Handle transient "ownerless" rtmutex state correctly
Gratian managed to trigger the BUG_ON(!newowner) in fixup_pi_state_owner().
This is one possible chain of events leading to this:
Task Prio Operation
T1 120 lock(F)
T2 120 lock(F) -> blocks (top waiter)
T3 50 (RT) lock(F) -> boosts T1 and blocks (new top waiter)
XX timeout/ -> wakes T2
signal
T1 50 unlock(F) -> wakes T3 (rtmutex->owner == NULL, waiter bit is set)
T2 120 cleanup -> try_to_take_mutex() fails because T3 is the top waiter
and the lower priority T2 cannot steal the lock.
-> fixup_pi_state_owner() sees newowner == NULL -> BUG_ON()
The comment states that this is invalid and rt_mutex_real_owner() must
return a non NULL owner when the trylock failed, but in case of a queued
and woken up waiter rt_mutex_real_owner() == NULL is a valid transient
state. The higher priority waiter has simply not yet managed to take over
the rtmutex.
The BUG_ON() is therefore wrong and this is just another retry condition in
fixup_pi_state_owner().
Drop the locks, so that T3 can make progress, and then try the fixup again.
Gratian provided a great analysis, traces and a reproducer. The analysis is
to the point, but it confused the hell out of that tglx dude who had to
page in all the futex horrors again. Condensed version is above.

perf/core: Fix a memory leak in perf_event_parse_addr_filter()
As shown through runtime testing, the "filename" allocation is not
always freed in perf_event_parse_addr_filter().
There are three possible ways that this could happen:
- It could be allocated twice on subsequent iterations through the loop,
- or leaked on the success path,
- or on the failure path.
Clean up the code flow to make it obvious that 'filename' is always
freed in the reallocation path and in the two return paths as well.
We rely on the fact that kfree(NULL) is NOP and filename is initialized
with NULL.
This fixes the leak. No other side effects expected.

null_blk: Fix scheduling in atomic with zoned mode
Commit
aa1c09cb65e2 ("null_blk: Fix locking in zoned mode") changed
zone locking to using the potentially sleeping wait_on_bit_io()
function. This is acceptable when memory backing is enabled as the
device queue is in that case marked as blocking, but this triggers a
scheduling while in atomic context with memory backing disabled.
Fix this by relying solely on the device zone spinlock for zone
information protection without temporarily releasing this lock around
null_process_cmd() execution in null_zone_write(). This is OK to do
since when memory backing is disabled, command processing does not
block and the memory backing lock nullb->lock is unused. This solution
avoids the overhead of having to mark a zoned null_blk device queue as
blocking when memory backing is unused.
This patch also adds comments to the zone locking code to explain the
unusual locking scheme.
Fixes:

Commit
2ae0b31e0face ("tty: don't crash in tty_init_dev when missing

tty_init_dev() calls release_tty() which dereferences tty->port
