The patch titled Subject: proc: deduplicate /proc/*/cmdline implementation has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is proc-deduplicate-proc-cmdline-implementation.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/proc-deduplicate-proc-cmdline-implementation.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/proc-deduplicate-proc-cmdline-implementation.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: proc: deduplicate /proc/*/cmdline implementation Code can be sonsolidated if a dummy region of 0 length is used in normal case of \0-separated command line: 1) [arg_start, arg_end) + [dummy len=0] 2) [arg_start, arg_end) + [env_start, env_end) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180221193335.GB28678@avx2 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/proc/base.c | 53 +++++++++++++++++------------------------------ 1 file changed, 20 insertions(+), 33 deletions(-) diff -puN fs/proc/base.c~proc-deduplicate-proc-cmdline-implementation fs/proc/base.c --- a/fs/proc/base.c~proc-deduplicate-proc-cmdline-implementation +++ a/fs/proc/base.c @@ -236,9 +236,12 @@ static ssize_t proc_pid_cmdline_read(str char *page; unsigned long count = _count; unsigned long arg_start, arg_end, env_start, env_end; - unsigned long len1, len2, len; - unsigned long p; + unsigned long len1, len2; char __user *buf0 = buf; + struct { + unsigned long p; + unsigned long len; + } cmdline[2]; char c; int rv; @@ -280,43 +283,21 @@ static ssize_t proc_pid_cmdline_read(str if (access_remote_vm(mm, arg_end - 1, &c, 1, 0) != 1) goto end; + cmdline[0].p = arg_start; + cmdline[0].len = len1; if (c == '\0') { /* Command line (set of strings) occupies whole ARGV. */ - if (len1 <= *pos) - goto end; - - p = arg_start + *pos; - len = len1 - *pos; - while (count > 0 && len > 0) { - unsigned int nr_read; - - nr_read = min3(count, len, PAGE_SIZE); - nr_read = access_remote_vm(mm, p, page, nr_read, 0); - if (nr_read == 0) - goto end; - - if (copy_to_user(buf, page, nr_read)) { - rv = -EFAULT; - goto out_free_page; - } - - p += nr_read; - len -= nr_read; - buf += nr_read; - count -= nr_read; - } + cmdline[1].len = 0; } else { /* * Command line (1 string) occupies ARGV and * extends into ENVP. */ - struct { - unsigned long p; - unsigned long len; - } cmdline[2] = { - { .p = arg_start, .len = len1 }, - { .p = env_start, .len = len2 }, - }; + cmdline[1].p = env_start; + cmdline[1].len = len2; + } + + { loff_t pos1 = *pos; unsigned int i; @@ -326,6 +307,9 @@ static ssize_t proc_pid_cmdline_read(str i++; } while (i < 2) { + unsigned long p; + unsigned long len; + p = cmdline[i].p + pos1; len = cmdline[i].len - pos1; while (count > 0 && len > 0) { @@ -340,7 +324,10 @@ static ssize_t proc_pid_cmdline_read(str * Command line can be shorter than whole ARGV * even if last "marker" byte says it is not. */ - nr_write = strnlen(page, nr_read); + if (c == '\0') + nr_write = nr_read; + else + nr_write = strnlen(page, nr_read); if (copy_to_user(buf, page, nr_write)) { rv = -EFAULT; _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx are proc-revalidate-kernel-thread-inodes-to-root-root.patch proc-fix-proc-loadavg-regression.patch proc-make-proc-cmdline-go-through-lsm.patch proc-more-unsigned-int-in-proc-cmdline.patch proc-somewhat-simpler-code-for-proc-cmdline.patch proc-simpler-iterations-for-proc-cmdline.patch proc-deduplicate-proc-cmdline-implementation.patch coredump-fix-spam-with-zero-vma-process.patch seq_file-delete-small-value-optimization.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
