checkpatch: warn on usage of VM_BUG_ON() and other BUG variants
checkpatch does not point out that VM_BUG_ON() and friends should be

VM_BUG_ON() has the exact same semantics as BUG_ON. It is literally
no different, the only difference is "we can make the code smaller
because these are less important". [1]
So let's warn on VM_BUG_ON() and other BUG variants as well. While at it,
make it clearer that the kernel really shouldn't be crashed.
As there are some subsystem BUG macros that actually don't end up crashing
the kernel -- for example, KVM_BUG_ON() -- exclude these manually.

coding-style.rst: document BUG() and WARN() rules ("do not crash the kernel")
Linus notes [1] that the introduction of new code that uses VM_BUG_ON()
is just as bad as BUG_ON(), because it will crash the kernel on
distributions that enable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM (like Fedora):
VM_BUG_ON() has the exact same semantics as BUG_ON. It is literally
no different, the only difference is "we can make the code smaller
because these are less important". [2]
This resulted in a more generic discussion about usage of BUG() and
friends. While there might be corner cases that still deserve a BUG_ON(),
most BUG_ON() cases should simply use WARN_ON_ONCE() and implement a
recovery path if reasonable:
The only possible case where BUG_ON can validly be used is "I have
some fundamental data corruption and cannot possibly return an
error". [2]
As a very good approximation is the general rule:
"absolutely no new BUG_ON() calls _ever_" [2]
... not even if something really shouldn't ever happen and is merely for
documenting that an invariant always has to hold. However, there are sill
exceptions where BUG_ON() may be used:
If you have a "this is major internal corruption, there's no way we can
continue", then BUG_ON() is appropriate. [3]
There is only one good BUG_ON():
Now, that said, there is one very valid sub-form of BUG_ON():
BUILD_BUG_ON() is absolutely 100% fine. [2]
While WARN will also crash the machine with panic_on_warn set, that's
exactly to be expected:
So we have two very different cases: the "virtual machine with good
logging where a dead machine is fine" - use 'panic_on_warn'. And
the actual real hardware with real drivers, running real loads by
users. [4]
The basic idea is that warnings will similarly get reported by users
and be found during testing. However, in contrast to a BUG(), there is a
way to actually influence the expected behavior (e.g., panic_on_warn)
and to eventually keep the machine alive to extract some debug info.
Ingo notes that not all WARN_ON_ONCE cases need recovery. If we don't ever
expect this code to trigger in any case, recovery code is not really
helpful.
I'd prefer to keep all these warnings 'simple' - i.e. no attempted
recovery & control flow, unless we ever expect these to trigger.
[5]
There have been different rules floating around that were never properly
documented. Let's try to clarify.

a mess containing everything we thought to throw in there. Firefox says it

This series aims to improve our documentation entry point with a focus on

For anybody who wants to see the rendered results without building the

This time around I've rendered the pages using the "Read The Docs" theme,

docs: admin-guide: for kernel bugs refer to other kernel documentation
The current section 'If something goes wrong' makes a number of suggestions
for debugging, bug hunting and reporting issues, which are quite briefly
described in that section.
However, the suggestions are also well covered in other kernel
documentation or sometimes simply outdated. Here, each suggestion in that
section is summarized, and then followed with its assessment, and the
derived action for each suggestion:
- use MAINTAINERS and mailing list: covered in 'Reporting issues',
summarized in the short guide, detailed in its further section.
Reporting issues even provides some specific examples that guides
readers well through the needed steps. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.
- contact Linus Torvalds: probably outdated as currently described.
nevertheless covered in 'Reporting issues'. Reporting issues points out
to contact the relevant kernel maintainers first, and after some
patience and failed attempts with those maintainers, contacting Linus
Torvalds might be okay. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.
- tell what kernel, how to duplicate, the setup, if the problem is new
or old and when did you notice: covered in 'Reporting issues',
especially in Step-by-step guide how to report issues to the kernel
maintainers. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.
- duplicate kernel bug reports exactly: covered in 'Reporting issues',
especially in Write and send the report. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.
- read 'Bug hunting': keep this reference. Refer to 'Bug hunting'.
- compile the kernel with CONFIG_KALLSYMS: covered in 'Reporting issues',
especially in Decode failure messages. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.
- alternatively, use ksymoops: ksymoops at the mentioned URL seems not to
be maintained anymore. It was released roughly once a year until
version 2.4.11 in 2005, but has not seen a new release since then. The
information in ./scripts/ksymoops/README is from 1999, and does not
give more insight on its actual maintenance state either. Ksymoops is
mentioned as system utility in changes.rst, but also not recommended
there. Drop the explanation on using ksymoops.
- alternatively, lookup dump manually with the EIP and nm to determine
the function in which the kernel crashes: this method seems already a
quite advanced and low-level debugging method. Even all the further
references on bug hunting and debugging do not mention it. Drop this
alternative method and limit mentioning methods explained in the other
existing kernel documentation.
- read 'Reporting issues': keep this reference.
Refer to 'Reporting issues'.
- use gdb for debugging: some specific details, e.g., edit
arch/x86/Makefile, are probably outdated or limited to one (historic
important) setup. Using gdb is covered in 'Bug hunting', 'Debugging
kernel and modules via gdb' and 'Using kgdb, kdb and the kernel
debugger internals'. Refer to those three documents.
Overall, it is sufficient to refer to reporting-issues.rst,
bug-hunting.rst, gdb-kernel-debugging.rst and kgdb.rst and this way cover
the existing suggestions.
'Reporting issues' is quite new and probably up to date. 'Bug hunting',
'Debugging kernel and modules via gdb' and 'Using kgdb, kdb and the kernel
debugger internals' might need some revisit and update, but they are
generally in an acceptable state for referring to them.
Replace the existing suggestions by reference to other existing kernel
documentation covering those suggestions---partly even nicely summarized
and then explained in greater detail.

docs: admin-guide: do not mention the 'run a.out user programs' feature
Running a.out user programs with the latest kernel release is a very rare
and uncommon use case nowadays. The support of a.out user programs is only
remaining for the alpha architecture and is not defined and activated in
the architecture's Kconfig (so even the activation of this support requires
to modify the Kconfig file and not just kernel build configuration).
The discussion on a.out support in 2019 (see Link) shows that the support
of a.out user programs is just remaining for a special corner case from
some (alpha architecture) users.
There is no need to point out and mention this special feature to the
general audience of kernel users. Delete the reference to this historic and
special feature.

docs/conf.py: Treat mathjax as fallback math renderer
Currently, math expressions using the "math::" directive or
the ":math:" role of Sphinx need the imgmath extension for proper
rendering in html and epub builds.
imgmath requires dvipng (and latex).
Otherwise, "make htmldocs" will complain of missing commands.
As a matter of fact, the mathjax extension is loaded by default since
Sphinx v1.8 and it is good enough for html docs without any dependency
on texlive packages.
Stop loading the imgmath extension for html docs unless requirements
for imgmath are met.
To find out whether required commands are available, add a helper
find_command(), which is a wrapper of shutil.which().
For epub docs, keep the same behavior of always loading imgmath.

Note that it does require a change to afs_write_begin() to return the
correct subpage. This is a "temporary" change as we're working on
getting rid of the need for ->write_begin() and ->write_end()
completely, at least as far as network filesystems are concerned - but
it doesn't prevent afs from making use of the capability.

perf test: Refactor shell tests allowing subdirs
This is a prelude to adding more tests to shell tests and in order to
support putting those tests into subdirectories, I need to change the
test code that scans/finds and runs them.
To support subdirs I have to recurse so it's time to refactor the code
to allow this and centralize the shell script finding into one location
and only one single scan that builds a list of all the found tests in
memory instead of it being duplicated in 3 places.
This code also optimizes things like knowing the max width of desciption
strings (as we can do that while we scan instead of a whole new pass of
opening files).
It also more cleanly filters scripts to see only *.sh files thus
skipping random other files in directories like *~ backup files, other
random junk/data files that may appear and the scripts must be
executable to make the cut (this ensures the script lib dir is not seen
as scripts to run).
This avoids perf test running previous older versions of test scripts
that are editor backup files as well as skipping perf.data files that
may appear and so on.
