2. Remove indentation in declaration of local variable between type and

When removing indentation, reorder variables in

mpi_read_from_buffer() and mpi_read_raw_data() do basically the same thing
except that the former extracts the number of payload bits from the first
two bytes of the input buffer.
Besides that, the data copying logic is exactly the same.

mpi_read_raw_data().

The first two bytes of the input buffer encode its expected length and
mpi_read_from_buffer() prints a console message if the given buffer is too
short.
However, there are some oddities with how this message is printed:
- It is printed at the default loglevel. This is different from the
one used in the case that the first two bytes' value is unsupportedly
large, i.e. KERN_INFO.
- The format specifier '%d' is used for unsigned ints.
- It prints the values of nread and *ret_nread. This is redundant since
the former is always the latter + 1.
Clean this up as follows:
- Use pr_info() rather than printk() with no loglevel.
- Use the format specifiers '%u' in place if '%d'.
- Do not print the redundant 'nread' but the more helpful 'nbytes' value.

Currently, if the input buffer is shorter than the expected length as
indicated by its first two bytes, an MPI instance of this expected length
will be allocated and filled with as much data as is available. The rest
will remain uninitialized.
Instead of leaving this condition undetected, an error code should be
reported to the caller.
Since this situation indicates that the input buffer's first two bytes,
encoding the number of expected bits, are garbled, -EINVAL is appropriate
here.
If the input buffer is shorter than indicated by its first two bytes,
make mpi_read_from_buffer() return -EINVAL.
Get rid of the 'nread' variable: with the new semantics, the total number
of bytes read from the input buffer is known in advance.

mpi_read_from_buffer() reads a MPI from a buffer into a newly allocated
MPI instance. It expects the buffer's leading two bytes to contain the
number of bits, followed by the actual payload.
On failure, it returns NULL and updates the in/out argument ret_nread
somewhat inconsistently:
- If the given buffer is too short to contain the leading two bytes
encoding the number of bits or their value is unsupported, then
ret_nread will be cleared.
- If the allocation of the resulting MPI instance fails, ret_nread is left
as is.
The only user of mpi_read_from_buffer(), digsig_verify_rsa(), simply checks
for a return value of NULL and returns -ENOMEM if that happens.
While this is all of cosmetic nature only, there is another error condition
which currently isn't detectable by the caller of mpi_read_from_buffer():
if the given buffer is too small to hold the number of bits as encoded in
its first two bytes, the return value will be non-NULL and *ret_nread > 0.
In preparation of communicating this condition to the caller, let
mpi_read_from_buffer() return error values by means of the ERR_PTR()
mechanism.
Make the sole caller of mpi_read_from_buffer(), digsig_verify_rsa(),
check the return value for IS_ERR() rather than == NULL. If IS_ERR() is
true, return the associated error value rather than the fixed -ENOMEM.

The number of bits, nbits, is calculated in mpi_read_raw_data() as follows:
nbits = nbytes * 8;
Afterwards, the number of leading zero bits of the first byte get
subtracted:
nbits -= count_leading_zeros(buffer[0]);
However, count_leading_zeros() takes an unsigned long and thus,
the u8 gets promoted to an unsigned long.
Thus, the above doesn't subtract the number of leading zeros in the most
significant nonzero input byte from nbits, but the number of leading
zeros of the most significant nonzero input byte promoted to unsigned long,
i.e. BITS_PER_LONG - 8 too many.
Fix this by subtracting
count_leading_zeros(...) - (BITS_PER_LONG - 8)
from nbits only.

There are SoCs like LS1043A where CAAM endianness (BE) does not match
the default endianness of the core (LE).
Moreover, there are requirements for the driver to handle cases like
CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y on ARM-based SoCs.
This requires for a complete rewrite of the I/O accessors.
PPC-specific accessors - {in,out}_{le,be}XX - are replaced with
generic ones - io{read,write}[be]XX.
Endianness is detected dynamically (at runtime) to allow for
multiplatform kernels, for e.g. running the same kernel image
on LS1043A (BE CAAM) and LS2080A (LE CAAM) armv8-based SoCs.
While here: debugfs entries need to take into consideration the
endianness of the core when displaying data. Add the necessary
glue code so the entries remain the same, but they are properly
read, regardless of the core and/or SEC endianness.
Note: pdb.h fixes only what is currently being used (IPsec).

"If an architecture overrides readq/writeq to have barriers but does

Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
"This series does several related things:
- Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.
(Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)
- Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the
above.
- Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms. Two
32-bit multiplies will do well enough.
- Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.
This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6ca ("Minimal
fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")
The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
multipliers.
The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added. Those
patches are last in the series.
- Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.
The patch in commit 0fed3ac866 ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
faster and better. (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
in the literature I could find. Comments welcome!)
- Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX(). This
would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.
- Sort out partial_name_hash().
The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
contributes nothing to the result. And some callers do odd things:
- fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
- fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes
- Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1. This would simplify users other
than full_name_hash"
Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1. (I
learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)
On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a
standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze
maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never
omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from
the H8/300 world"

This will improve the performance of hash_32() and hash_64(), but due
to complete lack of multi-bit shift instructions on H8, performance will
still be bad in surrounding code.

That file may define its own versions of various functions, and define
HAVE_* symbols (no CONFIG_ prefix!) to suppress the generic ones.
Included is a self-test (in lib/test_hash.c) that verifies the basics.

Patch 0fed3ac866 improved the hash mixing, but the function is slower
than necessary; there's a 7-instruction dependency chain (10 on x86)
each loop iteration.
Word-at-a-time access is a very tight loop (which is good, because
link_path_walk() is one of the hottest code paths in the entire kernel),
and the hash mixing function must not have a longer latency to avoid
slowing it down.
There do not appear to be any published fast hash functions that:
1) Operate on the input a word at a time, and
2) Don't need to know the length of the input beforehand, and
3) Have a single iterated mixing function, not needing conditional
branches or unrolling to distinguish different loop iterations.
One of the algorithms which comes closest is Yann Collet's xxHash, but
that's two dependent multiplies per word, which is too much.
The key insights in this design are:
1) Barring expensive ops like multiplies, to diffuse one input bit
across 64 bits of hash state takes at least log2(64) = 6 sequentially
dependent instructions. That is more cycles than we'd like.
2) An operation like "hash ^= hash << 13" requires a second temporary
register anyway, and on a 2-operand machine like x86, it's three
instructions.
3) A better use of a second register is to hold a two-word hash state.
With careful design, no temporaries are needed at all, so it doesn't
increase register pressure. And this gets rid of register copying
on 2-operand machines, so the code is smaller and faster.
4) Using two words of state weakens the requirement for one-round mixing;
we now have two rounds of mixing before cancellation is possible.
5) A two-word hash state also allows operations on both halves to be
done in parallel, so on a superscalar processor we get more mixing
in fewer cycles.
I ended up using a mixing function inspired by the ChaCha and Speck
round functions. It is 6 simple instructions and 3 cycles per iteration
(assuming multiply by 9 can be done by an "lea" instruction):
x ^= *input++;
y ^= x; x = ROL(x, K1);
x += y; y = ROL(y, K2);
y *= 9;
Not only is this reversible, two consecutive rounds are reversible:
if you are given the initial and final states, but not the intermediate
state, it is possible to compute both input words. This means that at
least 3 words of input are required to create a collision.
(It also has the property, used by hash_name() to avoid a branch, that
it hashes all-zero to all-zero.)
The rotate constants K1 and K2 were found by experiment. The search took
a sample of random initial states (I used 1023) and considered the effect
of flipping each of the 64 input bits on each of the 128 output bits two
rounds later. Each of the 8192 pairs can be considered a biased coin, and
adding up the Shannon entropy of all of them produces a score.
The best-scoring shifts also did well in other tests (flipping bits in y,
trying 3 or 4 rounds of mixing, flipping all 64*63/2 pairs of input bits),
so the choice was made with the additional constraint that the sum of the
shifts is odd and not too close to the word size.
The final state is then folded into a 32-bit hash value by a less carefully
optimized multiply-based scheme. This also has to be fast, as pathname
components tend to be short (the most common case is one iteration!), but
there's some room for latency, as there is a fair bit of intervening logic
before the hash value is used for anything.
(Performance verified with "bonnie++ -s 0 -n 1536:-2" on tmpfs. I need
a better benchmark; the numbers seem to show a slight dip in performance
between 4.6.0 and this patch, but they're too noisy to quote.)
Special thanks to Bruce fields for diligent testing which uncovered a
nasty fencepost error in an earlier version of this patch.

The "simplified" prime multipliers made very bad hash functions, so get rid
of them. This completes the work of 689de1d6ca.
To avoid the inefficiency which was the motivation for the "simplified"
multipliers, hash_64() on 32-bit systems is changed to use a different
algorithm. It makes two calls to hash_32() instead.
drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/af9015.c uses the old GOLDEN_RATIO_PRIME_32
for some horrible reason, so it inherits a copy of the old definition.

That's all that's ever asked for, and it makes the return
type of hash_long() consistent.
It also allows (upcoming patch) an optimized implementation
of hash_64 on 32-bit machines.
I tried adding a BUILD_BUG_ON to ensure the number of bits requested
was never more than 32 (most callers use a compile-time constant), but
adding <linux/bug.h> to <linux/hash.h> breaks the tools/perf compiler
unless tools/perf/MANIFEST is updated, and understanding that code base
well enough to update it is too much trouble. I did the rest of an
allyesconfig build with such a check, and nothing tripped.

Finally, the first use of previous two patches: eliminate the
separate ad-hoc string hash functions in the sunrpc code.
Now hash_str() is a wrapper around hash_string(), and hash_mem() is
likewise a wrapper around full_name_hash().
Note that sunrpc code *does* call hash_mem() with a zero length, which
is why the previous patch needed to handle that in full_name_hash().
(Thanks, Bruce, for finding that!)
This also eliminates the only caller of hash_long which asks for
more than 32 bits of output.
The comment about the quality of hashlen_string() and full_name_hash()
is jumping the gun by a few patches; they aren't very impressive now,
but will be improved greatly later in the series.

We'd like to make more use of the highly-optimized dcache hash functions
throughout the kernel, rather than have every subsystem create its own,
and a function that hashes basic null-terminated strings is required
for that.
(The name is to emphasize that it returns both hash and length.)
It's actually useful in the dcache itself, specifically d_alloc_name().
Other uses in the next patch.
full_name_hash() is also tweaked to make it more generally useful:
1) Take a "char *" rather than "unsigned char *" argument, to
be consistent with hash_name().
2) Handle zero-length inputs. If we want more callers, we don't want
to make them worry about corner cases.

... so they can be used without the rest of <linux/dcache.h>
The hashlen_* macros will make sense next patch.
