docs: powerpc: Fix tables in syscall64-abi.rst

Commit 209b44c804c ("docs: powerpc: syscall64-abi.rst: fix a malformed
table") attempted to fix the formatting of tables in syscall64-abi.rst, but
inadvertently changed some register names.

Redo the tables with the correct register names, and while we're here,
clean things up to separate the registers into different rows and add
headings.

Currently, kernel-doc causes an unexpected error when array element (i.e.,
"type (*foo[bar])(args)") is present as pointer parameter in
pointer-to-function parsing.

For e.g., running kernel-doc -none on kernel/gcov/gcc_4_7.c causes this
error:
"Use of uninitialized value $param in regexp compilation at ...", in

array element (i.e. square brackets) in $param.

Provide a simple fix by adding square brackets in the regex, responsible

A quick evaluation, by running 'kernel-doc -none' on entire kernel-tree,

doc: use KCFLAGS instead of EXTRA_CFLAGS to pass flags from command line

You should use KCFLAGS to pass additional compiler flags from the
command line. Using EXTRA_CFLAGS is wrong.

EXTRA_CFLAGS is supposed to specify flags applied only to the current
Makefile (and now deprecated in favor of ccflags-y).

It is still used in arch/mips/kvm/Makefile (and possibly in external
modules too). Passing EXTRA_CFLAGS from the command line overwrites
it and breaks the build.

I also fixed drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/Makefile because commit 816175dd1fd7
("drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc: Makefile, only -Werror when no -W* in

Peter Hutterer [Tue, 12 Jan 2021 23:03:10 +0000 (09:03 +1000)]
Documentation: input: define ABS_PRESSURE/ABS_MT_PRESSURE resolution as grams

ABS_PRESSURE and ABS_MT_PRESSURE on touch devices usually represent
contact size (as a finger flattens with higher pressure the contact size
increases) and userspace translates the kernel pressure value back into
contact size. For example, libinput has pressure thresholds when a touch is
considered a palm (palm == large contact area -> high pressure). The values
themselves are on an arbitrary scale and device-specific.

On pressurepads however, the pressure axis may represent the real physical
pressure. Pressurepads are touchpads without a hinge but an actual pressure
sensor underneath the device instead, for example the Lenovo Yoga 9i.

A high-enough pressure is converted to a button click by the firmware.
Microsoft does not require a pressure axis to be present, see [1], so as seen
from userspace most pressurepads are identical to clickpads - one button and
INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD set.

However, pressurepads that export the pressure axis break userspace because
that axis no longer represents contact size, resulting in inconsistent touch
tracking, e.g. [2]. Userspace needs to know when a pressure axis represents
real pressure and the best way to do so is to define what the resolution
field means. Userspace can then treat data with a pressure resolution as
true pressure.

This patch documents that the pressure resolution is in units/gram. This
allows for fine-grained detail and tops out at roughly ~2000t, enough for the
devices we're dealing with. Grams is not a scientific pressure unit but the
alternative is:
- Pascal: defined as force per area and area is unreliable on many devices and
  seems like the wrong option here anyway, especially for devices with a
  single pressure sensor only.
- Newton: defined as mass * distance/acceleration and for the purposes of a
  pressure axis, the distance is tricky to interpret and we get the data to
  calculate acceleration from event timestamps anyway.

For the purposes of touch devices and digitizers, grams seems the best choice
and the easiest to interpret.

Bonus side effect: we can use the existing hwdb infrastructure in userspace to
fix devices that advertise false pressure.

selftests: kselftest_harness.h: partially fix kernel-doc markups

The kernel-doc markups on this file are weird: they don't
follow what's specified at:

Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst

In particular, markups should use this format:
        identifier - description

and not this:
identifier(args)

The way the definitions are inside this file cause the
parser to completely miss the identifier name of each
function.

This prevents improving the script to do some needed validation

for it to fully follow the specs.

3 years agoscripts: kernel-doc: validate kernel-doc markup with the actual names
Mauro Carvalho Chehab [Thu, 14 Jan 2021 08:04:47 +0000 (09:04 +0100)]
scripts: kernel-doc: validate kernel-doc markup with the actual names

Kernel-doc currently expects that the kernel-doc markup to come
just before the function/enum/struct/union/typedef prototype.

Yet, if it find things like:

/**
 * refcount_add - add a value to a refcount
 * @i: the value to add to the refcount
 * @r: the refcount
 */
static inline void __refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r, int *oldp);
static inline void refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r);

Kernel-doc will do the wrong thing:

foobar.h:6: warning: Function parameter or member 'oldp' not described in '__refcount_add'
.. c:function:: void __refcount_add (int i, refcount_t *r, int *oldp)

   add a value to a refcount

**Parameters**

``int i``
  the value to add to the refcount

``refcount_t *r``
  the refcount

``int *oldp``
  *undescribed*

Basically, it will document "__refcount_add" with the kernel-doc
markup for refcount_add.

If both functions have the same arguments, this won't even
produce any warning!

Add a logic to check if the kernel-doc identifier matches the actual
name of the C function or data structure that will be documented.

3 years agoio_uring: stop SQPOLL submit on creator's death
Pavel Begunkov [Fri, 8 Jan 2021 20:57:25 +0000 (20:57 +0000)]
io_uring: stop SQPOLL submit on creator's death

When the creator of SQPOLL io_uring dies (i.e. sqo_task), we don't want
its internals like ->files and ->mm to be poked by the SQPOLL task, it
have never been nice and recently got racy. That can happen when the
owner undergoes destruction and SQPOLL tasks tries to submit new
requests in parallel, and so calls io_sq_thread_acquire*().

That patch halts SQPOLL submissions when sqo_task dies by introducing
sqo_dead flag. Once set, the SQPOLL task must not do any submission,
which is synchronised by uring_lock as well as the new flag.

The tricky part is to make sure that disabling always happens, that
means either the ring is discovered by creator's do_exit() -> cancel,
or if the final close() happens before it's done by the creator. The
last is guaranteed by the fact that for SQPOLL the creator task and only
it holds exactly one file note, so either it pins up to do_exit() or
removed by the creator on the final put in flush. (see comments in
uring_flush() around file->f_count == 2).

One more place that can trigger io_sq_thread_acquire_*() is
__io_req_task_submit(). Shoot off requests on sqo_dead there, even
though actually we don't need to. That's because cancellation of
sqo_task should wait for the request before going any further.

note 1: io_disable_sqo_submit() does io_ring_set_wakeup_flag() so the
caller would enter the ring to get an error, but it still doesn't
guarantee that the flag won't be cleared.

note 2: if final __userspace__ close happens not from the creator
task, the file note will pin the ring until the task dies.
