Subject: [PATCH RESEND v2 00/26] proc: convert the driver entries (Part 4/7)
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2026 20:42:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104-work-procfs-drivers-v2-0-245e54e87116@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104-work-procfs-v2-0-b45cd5789ac5@brauner>

Part 4/7 of "proc: move procfs to what kernfs does", on top of part 2
and independent of parts 3, 5 and 6:

  https://patch.msgid.link/20261104-work-procfs-v2-0-b45cd5789ac5@brauner

This converts the proc entries of nubus, zorro, PCI, md, dasd and cio,
scsi, dell-smm, viafb, rndis, ipw2x00, sysrq, the input devices file and
ALSA to what "proc: let procfs own the data path" set up. Afterwards the
entries' code only runs with the entry pinned and never touches
userspace memory. One patch per subsystem and method.

- procfs owns the seq_file of the nubus resource files, /proc/mdstat,
  the scsi host files, sg's allow_dio and def_reserved_size and ALSA's
  text entries. Their open and release hooks only do what is left,
  private data or the event count, and reading a scsi host file or an
  ALSA entry no longer holds up the removal of the host or the card.
- procfs copies in the writes of the PCI config space,
  /proc/dasd/statistics, cio_ignore and cio_settle, /proc/scsi/scsi,
  device_info and the host files, sg, viafb, rndis, ipw2x00's debug
  level, /proc/sysrq-trigger and ALSA's entries. Most of them just parse
  procfs' copy. Where a write larger than anything the entry parses now
  fails with -EINVAL from procfs the commit says so.
- procfs copies out the reads of /proc/bus/zorro, the PCI config space
  and ALSA's data entries.
- the PCI config space and ALSA's data entries take binary data at
  positions and keep doing that, PROC_ENTRY_SHORT_WRITES for writes in
  pieces, and ALSA's data entries ask for PROC_ENTRY_FULL_READS so that
  reading all of one at once keeps working. They hand procfs' buffer to
  the drivers, so struct snd_info_entry_ops changes along with them.
- procfs copies the ioctl arguments of PCI, esas2r's ATTONode file and
  dell-smm's i8k in and out. The PCI commands only pass values and the
  i8k ones encode the wrong sizes, both tables list what is really
  copied. ALSA's ioctl hook that no driver implements goes away.
- /proc/mdstat and /proc/bus/input/devices move their pollers to the
  wait queue procfs owns for the entry, which ends md's wakeup loop at
  unload, and the poll op of an ALSA info entry, which nothing
  implements, loses its poll_table.

The selftest writes to the file of a scsi_debug host from a buffer
backed by userfaultfd and removes the host while procfs copies in. On a
KASAN and lockdep kernel it fails without the series and passes with it.
Build tested per commit on x86_64 and with W=1 on the touched objects on
their own architectures. The entries I could get at in a VM behave the
same with and without the series.

Changes in v2:
- md and Input let procfs own the wait queues of /proc/mdstat and
  /proc/bus/input/devices, md's wakeup loop at unload is gone and
  /proc/mdstat is removed last, Input forgets the entry when it is
  removed, and the poll op of an ALSA info entry loses its poll_table
- the scsi_debug selftest skips without /proc/scsi and removes the host
  it added when its file can't be found
- Reviewed-by from Jiri on sysrq
- rebased onto v7.4-rc1
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20261102-work-procfs-drivers-v1-0-a994bd4d3b1a@kernel.org
