Lockdep complains about a possible deadlock between mount and unlink,
but it seems that the inode lock in pstore_mkfile() isn't needed for
d_alloc_name() and d_add() calls. Additionally, pstore's own read_mutex
should be protecting this anyway (since it is held for both get_records()
and unlink()). As such, drop the explicit inode locking.

Nothing actually uses write_user_compat() currently, but there is no
reason to reuse the dmesg buffer. Instead, just allocate a new record
buffer, copy in from userspace, and pass it to write() as normal.

Now that write() and write_buf() are functionally identical, this removes
write_buf(), and renames write_buf_user() to write_user(). Additionally
adds sanity-checks for pstore_info's declared functions and flags at

pstore_mkfile() shouldn't have to memcpy the record contents. It can use
the existing copy instead. This adjusts the allocation lifetime management
and renames the contents variable from "data" to "buf" to assist moving to
struct pstore_record in the future.

Currently, pstore_mkfile() performs a memcpy() of the record contents,
so it can live anywhere. However, this is needlessly wasteful. In

allocate a buffer for the contents.

The ram backend wasn't always initializing its spinlock correctly. Since
it was coming from kzalloc memory, though, it was harmless on
architectures that initialize unlocked spinlocks to 0 (at least x86 and
ARM). This also fixes a possibly ignored flag setting too.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't know why it needs to copy the
input buffer to psinfo->buf and then write. Instead we can write the
input buffer directly. The only implementation that supports console
message (i.e. ramoops) already does it for ftrace messages.
For the upcoming virtio backend driver, it needs to protect psinfo->buf
overwritten from console messages. If it could use ->write_buf method
instead of ->write, the problem will be solved easily.

When update_ms is set, pstore_get_records() will be called when there's
a new entry. But unlink can be called at the same time and might
contend with the open-read-close loop. Depending on the implementation
of platform driver, it may be safe or not. But I think it'd be better
to protect those race in the first place.

Currently, pstore doesn't have any filters setup for function tracing.
This has the associated overhead and may not be useful for users looking
for tracing specific set of functions.
ftrace's regular function trace filtering is done writing to
tracing/set_ftrace_filter however this is not available if not requested.
In order to be able to use this feature, the support to request global
filtering introduced earlier in the series should be requested before
registering the ftrace ops. Here we do the same.

In preparation for merging the per CPU buffers into one buffer when
we retrieve the pstore ftrace data, we store the timestamp as a
counter in the ftrace pstore record. We store the CPU number as well
if !PSTORE_CPU_IN_IP, in this case we shift the counter and may lose
ordering there but we preserve the same record size. The timestamp counter
is also racy, and not doing any locking or synchronization here results
in the benefit of lower overhead. Since we don't care much here for exact
ordering of function traces across CPUs, we don't synchronize and may lose
some counter updates but I'm ok with that.
Using trace_clock() results in much lower performance so avoid using it
since we don't want accuracy in timestamp and need a rough ordering to
perform merge.

Currently pstore has a global spinlock for all zones. Since the zones
are independent and modify different areas of memory, there's no need
to have a global lock, so we should use a per-zone lock as introduced
here. Also, when ramoops's ftrace use-case has a FTRACE_PER_CPU flag
introduced later, which splits the ftrace memory area into a single zone
per CPU, it will eliminate the need for locking. In preparation for this,
make the locking optional.

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.
CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.
Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

The ramoops buffer may be mapped as either I/O memory or uncached
memory. On ARM64, this results in a device-type (strongly-ordered)
mapping. Since unnaligned accesses to device-type memory will
generate an alignment fault (regardless of whether or not strict
alignment checking is enabled), it is not safe to use memcpy().
memcpy_fromio() is guaranteed to only use aligned accesses, so use
that instead.

persistent_ram_update uses vmap / iomap based on whether the buffer is in
memory region or reserved region. However, both map it as non-cacheable
memory. For armv8 specifically, non-cacheable mapping requests use a
memory type that has to be accessed aligned to the request size. memcpy()
doesn't guarantee that.

Removing a bounce buffer copy operation in the pmsg driver path is
always better. We also gain in overall performance by not requesting
a vmalloc on every write as this can cause precious RT tasks, such
as user facing media operation, to stall while memory is being
reclaimed. Added a write_buf_user to the pstore functions, a backup
platform write_buf_user that uses the small buffer that is part of

This patch adds new PSTORE_FLAGS for each pstore type so that they can
be enabled separately. This is a preparation for ongoing virtio-pstore
work to support those types flexibly.
The PSTORE_FLAGS_FRAGILE is changed to PSTORE_FLAGS_DMESG to preserve the
original behavior.

I have here a FPGA behind PCIe which exports SRAM which I use for
pstore. Now it seems that the FPGA no longer supports cmpxchg based
updates and writes back 0xff…ff and returns the same. This leads to
crash during crash rendering pstore useless.
Since I doubt that there is much benefit from using cmpxchg() here, I am
dropping this atomic access and use the spinlock based version.

A basic rmmod ramoops segfaults. Let's see why.
Since commit 34f0ec82e0a9 ("pstore: Correct the max_dump_cnt clearing of
ramoops") sets ->max_dump_cnt to zero before looping over ->przs but we
didn't use it before that either.
And since commit ee1d267423a1 ("pstore: add pstore unregister") we free
that memory on rmmod.
But even then, we looped until a NULL pointer or ERR. I don't see where
it is ensured that the last member is NULL. Let's try this instead:
simply error recovery and free. Clean up in error case where resources
were allocated. And then, in the free path, rely on ->max_dump_cnt in
the free path.
