bitmap_parselist has been evolved from a pretty simple idea for long and
now lacks for refactoring. It is not structured, has nested loops and a
set of opaque-named variables. All this leads to extremely hard
understanding of the code. Once during the optimization of it I missed a
scenario which leads to kernel hangup. Tetsuo Handa spotted this and found
it simpler to rewrite the code instead fixing it. (Though, that attempt
had some flaws.)
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/1/93
Things are more complicated than they may be because bitmap_parselist()
is part of user interface, and its behavior should not change.
In this patchset
- __bitmap_parselist() is reworked (patches 2 and 3);
- time measurement in test_bitmap_parselist switched to ktime_get
(patch 4);
- new tests introduced (patch 5), and
- bitmap_parselist_user() testing enabled with the same testset as
bitmap_parselist() (patch 6).
Patch 1 is a fix and may be applied separately.
V1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/12/23/50
v2: - use PTR_ERR() and ERR_PTR() where appropriate;
- fix parser logic (last byte of string handling);
- tests for bitmap_parselist_user() in patch 5.

2.17.1
bitmap_parselist() calculates length of the input string before passing
it to the __bitmap_parselist(). But the end-of-line condition is checked
for every character in __bitmap_parselist() anyway. So doing it in wrapper
is a simple waste of time.

2.17.1
The requirement for this rework is to keep the __bitmap_parselist()
copy-less and single-pass but make it more readable and maintainable by
splitting into logical parts and removing explicit nested cycles and
opaque local variables.
__bitmap_parselist() can parse userspace inputs and therefore we cannot
use simple_strtoul() to parse numbers.

Ah, okay, it's already first for test module.

Hi Andy, thanks for your time on it.
Only arm, arm64, openrisc, riscv and sparc64 #define get_cycles.
So IIUC, others take stub from include/asm-generic/timex.h.
sparc32, xtensa, m68k, um, and in some cases x86, mips and nios2
provide zero-stubs explicitly.

Should we (RISC-V) be doing something else? It seems odd to be in such a
minority here, but we do have a ISA-mandated timer so the get_cycles()
implementation is super easy.

I think you are completely fine because you are one of those who
implement get_cycles().
get_cycles() is the problem for those who use it in generic code
because their code surprisingly gets broken on some machines while
works OK on others. This is not a problem of any specific arch.
For long term, we should inspect the non-arch code and replace
get_cycles() with ktime_get() where appropriate, and avoid
introducing new get_cycles() uses.

I forgot about Fixes tag:
Fixes: 6df0d464dbcc1a5 ("lib/test_bitmap.c: add test for bitmap_parselist()")
If it comes to v3, I'll add the tag and explanations above to the
patch message.
Ping?
