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.

-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。

Seems like incomprehensible to me. Did you mean comparing pre-git era
changelog to current doc?
Also, the subject line should be "Documentation: remove magic number doc".
Thanks.

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 were removed in
commit e38e0cfa48ac38f4fe24453d2523852467c95b21 ("[ALSA] Remove
kmalloc wrappers"), six months after start of git
* SLAB_C_MAGIC has never even appeared in git
(removed in 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.

-
- 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.

- 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.

-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.

-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。

Hi,
The patch description can be improved, see below.
Nit: Use abbreviated hash when referring to commits (`git show -s
--pretty=format:"%h (\"%s\")`). You may need to set `core.abbrev=12`
in your `~/.gitconfig`.

"... are in drivers which are mostly untouched..."
Also, really PPP and PTY have been burninated? Since what commit?

"A rough estimate ... is obtained by:"
"Note that the word 'magic' may have different meaning from magic
number context.
There are also magic numbers which aren't listed here, like ..."

"Therefore, magic-number.rst is a low-value historial relic at best and

Thanks.

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 d56b9b9c464a ("[PATCH] The scheduled removal of some OSS
drivers") removed the entire driver in 2006
* CS_CARD_MAGIC likewise since
commit b5d425c97f7d ("more scheduled OSS driver removal") in 2007
* KMALLOC_MAGIC and VMALLOC_MAGIC were removed in
commit e38e0cfa48ac ("[ALSA] Remove kmalloc wrappers"),
six months after start of git
* SLAB_C_MAGIC has never even appeared in git
(removed in 2.4.0-test3pre6)
At a glance, the only ones still in use are in drivers which are mostly
untouched since git (TTY, SLIP,
SCSI (drivers/scsi/{arm/queue.c,ncr53c8xx.c}), &c.).
A rough estimate of magic numbers in the kernel is obtained by:
# git grep define | grep '_MAGIC\b' |
grep -ve IOC -e ^tools/ -e '_IO[(WR]' -e _SUPER | wc -l
780
Note that the word 'magic' may have different meaning from magic
number context.
There are also magic numbers which aren't listed here, like
SR_EEPROM_MAGIC, L2TP_TUNNEL_MAGIC, and MD_SB_MAGIC.
Therefore, magic-number.rst is a low-value historial relic at best and
misleading cruft at worst, so remove the documentation.

They didn't, but the constants did.
Removed as irrelevant since that happened pre-git.

-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.

-
- 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

-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.

-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。

Please only remove the ones that are not used anymore.
Then work on actually removing the remaining ones (hint, the tty layer
should not need this and I'll gladly take patches), and only after they
are all gone, can you remove the whole file.
thanks,

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 d56b9b9c464a ("[PATCH] The scheduled removal of some OSS
drivers") removed the entire driver in 2006
* CS_CARD_MAGIC likewise since
commit b5d425c97f7d ("more scheduled OSS driver removal") in 2007
* KMALLOC_MAGIC and VMALLOC_MAGIC were removed in
commit e38e0cfa48ac ("[ALSA] Remove kmalloc wrappers"),
six months after start of git
* SLAB_C_MAGIC has never even appeared in git
(removed in 2.4.0-test3pre6)
magic-number.rst is a low-value historial relic at best and
misleading cruft at worst, so start with cleaning out ones that only
appear therein

In fs/hfs, the only magic is for delineating on-disk block types,
of which HFS_DRVR_DESC_MAGIC HFS_MFS_SUPER_MAGIC are define-only,
but they're out of scope for magic-number.rst
Magic numbers as described there were all removed, along their defines,
in the 2.6.4 "HFS rewrite", pre-git

Hi Наб,

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 53c2bd679017277f
("a.out: remove define-only CMAGIC, previously magic number") in
driver-core/driver-core-next.

Indeed. This is part of uapi, and might break some unknown
userspace, while the gain is limited. Do we really want to reduce
include/uapi/linux/a.out.h piecewise (e.g. N_BADMAG() seems to be
unused, too), instead of keeping it until a.out support is removed
completely?
Anyway, even at that point, it might be wise to keep the header file
around, as people have expressed the desire to run a.out binaries
through a userspace-compatibility wrapper.

Not really, but it looked like a magic number in the magic-number.rst
sense due to the field being "magic" and the unintuitive type naming:
I hadn't realised it's part of the on-disk format
re-examination shows that it very well may be (have been).

Agreed. Scissor-patch that reverts the removal below.

Debian Code Search; in this case my query was:
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=%5CbCMAGIC%5Cb&literal=0
There's a few false positives here but all results that are using CMAGIC
to mean this CMAGIC (and aren't hurd code copied from linux)

Subject: [PATCH] a.out: restore CMAGIC
Part of UAPI and the on-disk format:
this means that it's not a magic number per magic-number.rst,
and it's best to leave it untouched to avoid breaking userspace
and suffer the same fate as a.out in general
Fixes: commit 53c2bd679017 ("a.out: remove define-only CMAGIC,
previously magic number")
