[PATCH] Documentation/process/magic-number.rst: kill

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The entire file blames back to the start of git
(minus whitespace from the RST translation and a typo fix)

There are changelog comments for March 1994 through to Linux 2.5.74,
struct tty_ldisc is two pointers nowadays, so naturally no magic,
GDA_MAGIC is defined but unused, and it's been this way
since start-of-git,
M3_CARD_MAGIC isn't defined, because
commit d56b9b9c464a10ab1ee51a4c6190a2b57b8ef7a6 ("[PATCH] The scheduled
removal of some OSS drivers") removed the entire driver in 2006,
CS_CARD_MAGIC likewise since
commit b5d425c97f7d4e92151167b01ca038e7853c6b37 ("more scheduled OSS
driver removal") in 2007,
KMALLOC_MAGIC and VMALLOC_MAGIC got killed in
commit e38e0cfa48ac38f4fe24453d2523852467c95b21 ("[ALSA] Remove kmalloc
wrappers"), six months after start of git,
SLAB_C_MAGIC has never appeared in git (killed in 2.4.0-test3pre6).

At a glance, the only ones still in use are in code mostly untouched
since git (TTY, SLIP, SCSI (drivers/scsi/{arm/queue.c,ncr53c8xx.c}),
&c., but not PPP or PTY (neither exist now)).

A rough estimate of magic numbers in the kernel may be obtained via
  # git grep define | grep '_MAGIC\b' |
    grep -ve IOC  -e ^tools/ -e '_IO[(WR]' -e _SUPER | wc -l
  780
there is, of course, a few other meanings of magic here,
but a random sampling of SR_EEPROM_MAGIC, L2TP_TUNNEL_MAGIC,
and MD_SB_MAGIC showed they are all used like magic-number.rst describes
and are not in it

By all accounts, it seems magic-number.rst is a low-value historical
relic at best and misleading cruft at worst

-Linux magic numbers
-===================
-
-This file is a registry of magic numbers which are in use.  When you
-add a magic number to a structure, you should also add it to this
-file, since it is best if the magic numbers used by various structures
-are unique.
-
-It is a **very** good idea to protect kernel data structures with magic
-numbers.  This allows you to check at run time whether (a) a structure
-has been clobbered, or (b) you've passed the wrong structure to a
-routine.  This last is especially useful --- particularly when you are
-passing pointers to structures via a void * pointer.  The tty code,
-for example, does this frequently to pass driver-specific and line
-discipline-specific structures back and forth.
-
-The way to use magic numbers is to declare them at the beginning of
-the structure, like so::
-
-	struct tty_ldisc {
-		int	magic;
-		...
-	};
-
-Please follow this discipline when you are adding future enhancements
-to the kernel!  It has saved me countless hours of debugging,
-especially in the screwy cases where an array has been overrun and
-structures following the array have been overwritten.  Using this
-discipline, these cases get detected quickly and safely.

-Changelog::
-
-					Theodore Ts'o
-					31 Mar 94
-
-  The magic table is current to Linux 2.1.55.
-
-					Michael Chastain
-					<mailto:mec@xxxxxxxxx>
-					22 Sep 1997
-
-  Now it should be up to date with Linux 2.1.112. Because
-  we are in feature freeze time it is very unlikely that
-  something will change before 2.2.x. The entries are
-  sorted by number field.
-
-					Krzysztof G. Baranowski
-					<mailto: kgb@xxxxxxxxxx>
-					29 Jul 1998
-
-  Updated the magic table to Linux 2.5.45. Right over the feature freeze,
-  but it is possible that some new magic numbers will sneak into the
-  kernel before 2.6.x yet.
-
-					Petr Baudis
-					<pasky@xxxxxx>
-					03 Nov 2002
-
-  Updated the magic table to Linux 2.5.74.

-I numeri magici di Linux
-========================
-
-Questo documento è un registro dei numeri magici in uso.  Quando
-aggiungete un numero magico ad una struttura, dovreste aggiungerlo anche
-a questo documento; la cosa migliore è che tutti i numeri magici usati
-dalle varie strutture siano unici.
-
-È **davvero** un'ottima idea proteggere le strutture dati del kernel con
-dei numeri magici.  Questo vi permette in fase d'esecuzione di (a) verificare
-se una struttura è stata malmenata, o (b) avete passato a una procedura la
-struttura errata.  Quest'ultimo è molto utile - particolarmente quando si passa
-una struttura dati tramite un puntatore void \*.  Il codice tty, per esempio,
-effettua questa operazione con regolarità passando avanti e indietro le
-strutture specifiche per driver e discipline.
-
-Per utilizzare un numero magico, dovete dichiararlo all'inizio della struttura
-dati, come di seguito::
-
-	struct tty_ldisc {
-		int	magic;
-		...
-	};
-
-Per favore, seguite questa direttiva quando aggiungerete migliorie al kernel!
-Mi ha risparmiato un numero illimitato di ore di debug, specialmente nei casi
-più ostici dove si è andati oltre la dimensione di un vettore e la struttura
-dati che lo seguiva in memoria è stata sovrascritta.  Seguendo questa
-direttiva, questi casi vengono identificati velocemente e in sicurezza.

-Linux 魔术数
-============
-
-这个文件是有关当前使用的魔术值注册表。当你给一个结构添加了一个魔术值,你也应该把这个魔术值添加到这个文件,因为我们最好把用于各种结构的魔术值统一起来。
-
-使用魔术值来保护内核数据结构是一个非常好的主意。这就允许你在运行期检查(a)一个结构是否已经被攻击,或者(b)你已经给一个例行程序通过了一个错误的结构。后一种情况特别地有用---特别是当你通过一个空指针指向结构体的时候。tty源码,例如,经常通过特定驱动使用这种方法并且反复地排列特定方面的结构。
-
-使用魔术值的方法是在结构的开始处声明的,如下::
-
-        struct tty_ldisc {
-	        int	magic;
-        	...
-        };
-
-当你以后给内核添加增强功能的时候,请遵守这条规则!这样就会节省数不清的调试时间,特别是一些古怪的情况,例如,数组超出范围并且重新写了超出部分。遵守这个规则,‪这些情况可以被快速地,安全地避免。

-给当前的Linux 2.1.55添加魔术表。

-		22 Sep 1997
-
-现在应该最新的Linux 2.1.112.因为在特性冻结期间,不能在2.2.x前改变任何东西。这些条目被数域所排序。

-
-更新魔术表到Linux 2.5.45。刚好越过特性冻结,但是有可能还会有一些新的魔术值在2.6.x之前融入到内核中。

-更新魔术表到Linux 2.5.74。

-请注意,在声音记忆管理中仍然有一些特殊的为每个驱动定义的魔术值。查看include/sound/sndmagic.h来获取他们完整的列表信息。很多OSS声音驱动拥有自己从声卡PCI ID构建的魔术值-他们也没有被列在这里。
-
-IrDA子系统也使用了大量的自己的魔术值,查看include/net/irda/irda.h来获取他们完整的信息。
-
-HFS是另外一个比较大的使用魔术值的文件系统-你可以在fs/hfs/hfs.h中找到他们。

-Linux 魔術數
-============
-
-這個文件是有關當前使用的魔術值註冊表。當你給一個結構添加了一個魔術值,你也應該把這個魔術值添加到這個文件,因爲我們最好把用於各種結構的魔術值統一起來。
-
-使用魔術值來保護內核數據結構是一個非常好的主意。這就允許你在運行期檢查(a)一個結構是否已經被攻擊,或者(b)你已經給一個例行程序通過了一個錯誤的結構。後一種情況特別地有用---特別是當你通過一個空指針指向結構體的時候。tty源碼,例如,經常通過特定驅動使用這種方法並且反覆地排列特定方面的結構。
-
-使用魔術值的方法是在結構的開始處聲明的,如下::
-
-        struct tty_ldisc {
-	        int	magic;
-        	...
-        };
-
-當你以後給內核添加增強功能的時候,請遵守這條規則!這樣就會節省數不清的調試時間,特別是一些古怪的情況,例如,數組超出範圍並且重新寫了超出部分。遵守這個規則,‪這些情況可以被快速地,安全地避免。

-給當前的Linux 2.1.55添加魔術表。

-
-現在應該最新的Linux 2.1.112.因爲在特性凍結期間,不能在2.2.x前改變任何東西。這些條目被數域所排序。

-
-更新魔術表到Linux 2.5.45。剛好越過特性凍結,但是有可能還會有一些新的魔術值在2.6.x之前融入到內核中。

-更新魔術表到Linux 2.5.74。

-請注意,在聲音記憶管理中仍然有一些特殊的爲每個驅動定義的魔術值。查看include/sound/sndmagic.h來獲取他們完整的列表信息。很多OSS聲音驅動擁有自己從音效卡PCI ID構建的魔術值-他們也沒有被列在這裡。
-
-IrDA子系統也使用了大量的自己的魔術值,查看include/net/irda/irda.h來獲取他們完整的信息。
-
-HFS是另外一個比較大的使用魔術值的文件系統-你可以在fs/hfs/hfs.h中找到他們。
