With the latest gcc compilers, they give a warning if __builtin_return_address() parameter is greater than 0. That is because if it is used by a function called by a top level function (or in the case of the kernel, by assembly), it can try to access stack frames outside the stack and crash the system. The tracing system uses __builtin_return_address() of up to 2! But it is well aware of the dangers that it may have, and has even added precautions to protect against it (see the thunk code in arch/x86/entry/thunk*.S) Linus originally added KBUILD_CFLAGS that would suppress the warning for the entire kernel, as simply adding KBUILD_CFLAGS to the tracing directory wouldn't work. The tracing directory plays a bit with the CFLAGS and requires a little more logic. This adds that special logic to only suppress the warning for the tracing directory. If it is used anywhere else outside of tracing, the warning will still be triggered.

glibc recently did a sync up (94e73c95d9b5 "elf.h: Sync with the gabi webpage") that added a #define for EM_METAG but did not add relocations This triggers build errors: scripts/recordmcount.c: In function 'do_file': scripts/recordmcount.c:466:28: error: 'R_METAG_ADDR32' undeclared (first use in this function) case EM_METAG: reltype = R_METAG_ADDR32; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ scripts/recordmcount.c:466:28: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in scripts/recordmcount.c:468:20: error: 'R_METAG_NONE' undeclared (first use in this function) rel_type_nop = R_METAG_NONE; ^~~~~~~~~~~~ Work around this change with some more #ifdefery for the relocations.

Newer versions of gcc warn about the use of __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument when "-Wall" is specified: kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function ‘stop_critical_timings’: kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:433:86: warning: calling ‘__builtin_return_address’ with a nonzero argument is unsafe [-Wframe-address] stop_critical_timing(CALLER_ADDR0, CALLER_ADDR1); [ .. repeats a few times for other similar cases .. ] It is true that a non-zero argument is somewhat dangerous, and we do not actually have very many uses of that in the kernel - but the ftrace code does use it, and as Stephen Rostedt says: "We are well aware of the danger of using __builtin_return_address() of > 0. In fact that's part of the reason for having the "thunk" code in x86 (See arch/x86/entry/thunk_{64,32}.S). [..] it adds extra frames when tracking irqs off sections, to prevent __builtin_return_address() from accessing bad areas. In fact the thunk_32.S states: 'Trampoline to trace irqs off. (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)'." For now, __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument is the best we can do, and the warning is not helpful and can end up making people miss other warnings for real problems. So disable the frame-address warning on compilers that need it. Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull random driver updates from Ted Ts'o: "A number of improvements for the /dev/random driver; the most important is the use of a ChaCha20-based CRNG for /dev/urandom, which is faster, more efficient, and easier to make scalable for silly/abusive userspace programs that want to read from /dev/urandom in a tight loop on NUMA systems. This set of patches also improves entropy gathering on VM's running on Microsoft Azure, and will take advantage of a hw random number generator (if present) to initialize the /dev/urandom pool" (It turns out that the random tree hadn't been in linux-next this time around, because it had been dropped earlier as being too quiet.

Pull spi updates from Mark Brown: "Quite a lot of cleanup and maintainence work going on this release in various drivers, and also a fix for a nasty locking issue in the core: - A fix for locking issues when external drivers explicitly locked the bus with spi_bus_lock() - we were using the same lock to both control access to the physical bus in multi-threaded I/O operations and exclude multiple callers.

Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because it generates a lot of false positives. But some had not, and it was still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example. Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough) that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized. The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning that causes more problems than the warning can solve. If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to re-enable this warning. But as is, we're better off without it, and I want to be able to see the *real* warnings.

Pull xfs updates from Dave Chinner: "The major addition is the new iomap based block mapping infrastructure. We've been kicking this about locally for years, but there are other filesystems want to use it too (e.g. gfs2). Now it is fully working, reviewed and ready for merge and be used by other filesystems. There are a lot of other fixes and cleanups in the tree, but those are XFS internal things and none are of the scale or visibility of the iomap changes. See below for details. I am likely to send another pull request next week - we're just about ready to merge some new functionality (on disk block->owner reverse mapping infrastructure), but that's a huge chunk of code (74 files changed, 7283 insertions(+), 1114 deletions(-)) so I'm keeping that separate to all the "normal" pull request changes so they don't get lost in the noise. Summary of changes in this update: - generic iomap based IO path infrastructure - generic iomap based fiemap implementation - xfs iomap based Io path implementation - buffer error handling fixes - tracking of in flight buffer IO for unmount serialisation - direct IO and DAX io path separation and simplification - shortform directory format definition changes for wider platform compatibility - various buffer cache fixes - cleanups in preparation for rmap merge - error injection cleanups and fixes - log item format buffer memory allocation restructuring to prevent rare OOM reclaim deadlocks - sparse inode chunks are now fully supported" * tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: (53 commits) xfs: remove EXPERIMENTAL tag from sparse inode feature xfs: bufferhead chains are invalid after end_page_writeback xfs: allocate log vector buffers outside CIL context lock libxfs: directory node splitting does not have an extra block xfs: remove dax code from object file when disabled xfs: skip dirty pages in ->releasepage() xfs: remove __arch_pack xfs: kill xfs_dir2_inou_t xfs: kill xfs_dir2_sf_off_t xfs: split direct I/O and DAX path xfs: direct calls in the direct I/O path xfs: stop using generic_file_read_iter for direct I/O xfs: split xfs_file_read_iter into buffered and direct I/O helpers xfs: remove s_maxbytes enforcement in xfs_file_read_iter xfs: kill ioflags xfs: don't pass ioflags around in the ioctl path xfs: track and serialize in-flight async buffers against unmount xfs: exclude never-released buffers from buftarg I/O accounting xfs: don't reset b_retries to 0 on every failure xfs: remove extraneous buffer flag changes ...

Parameter trydefaults=1 causes the ipmi_init to initialize ipmi through the legacy port io space that was designated for ipmi. Architectures that do not map legacy port io can panic when trydefaults=1. Rather than implement build-time conditional exceptions for each architecture that does not map legacy port io, we have removed legacy port io from the driver. Parameter 'trydefaults' has been removed. Attempts to use it hereafter will evoke the "Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter" message. The patch was built against a number of architectures and tested for regressions and functionality on x86_64 and ARM64. Signed-off-by: Tony Camuso <tcamuso@redhat.com> Removed the config entry and the address source entry for default, since neither were used any more. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>

The be2net driver performs fw temperature queries on be_worker() routine, which is executed each second for each be_adapter. There is a frequency threshold to avoid fw query to happens at each call to be_worker(); instead, currently a fw query occurs once in 64 runs of the procedure. Nevertheless, this fw temperature query is invoked only for adapters which interface is up, so we can see I/O errors on read of hwmon counters from userspace (from tools like lm-sensors) in case we have adapters' functions which interface is down. This patch moves the fw query code to be invoked even if interface is down. No functional changes were introduced. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.8 kernel cycle. The big news is the completion of the chardev ABI which I'm very happy about and apart from that it's an ordinary, quite busy cycle. The details are below. The patches are tested in linux-next for some time, patches to other subsystem mostly have ACKs. I got overly ambitious with configureing lines as input for IRQ lines but it turns out that some controllers have their interrupt-enable and input-enabling in orthogonal settings so the assumption that all IRQ lines are input lines does not hold. Oh well, revert and back to the drawing board with that. Core changes: - The big item is of course the completion of the character device ABI. It has now replaced and surpassed the former unmaintainable sysfs ABI: we can now hammer (bitbang) individual lines or sets of lines and read individual lines or sets of lines from userspace, and we can also register to listen to GPIO events from userspace. As a tie-in we have two new tools in tools/gpio: gpio-hammer and gpio-event-mon that illustrate the proper use of the new ABI. As someone said: the wild west days of GPIO are now over. - Continued to remove the pointless ARCH_[WANT_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB Kconfig symbols. I'm patching hexagon, openrisc, powerpc, sh, unicore, ia64 and microblaze. These are either ACKed by their maintainers or patched anyways after a grace period and no response from maintainers. Some archs (ARM) come in from their trees, and others (x86) are still not fixed, so I might send a second pull request to root it out later in this merge window, or just defer to v4.9. - The GPIO tools are moved to the tools build system. New drivers: - New driver for the MAX77620/MAX20024. - New driver for the Intel Merrifield. - Enabled PCA953x for the TI PCA9536. - Enabled PCA953x for the Intel Edison. - Enabled R8A7792 in the RCAR driver. Driver improvements: - The STMPE and F7188x now supports the .get_direction() callback. - The Xilinx driver supports setting multiple lines at once. - ACPI support for the Vulcan GPIO controller. - The MMIO GPIO driver supports device tree probing. - The Acer One 10 is supported through the _DEP ACPI attribute. Cleanups: - A major cleanup of the OF/DT support code. It is way easier to read and understand now, probably this improves performance too. - Drop a few redundant .owner assignments. - Remove CLPS711x boardfile support: we are 100% DT" * tag 'gpio-v4.8-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: (67 commits) MAINTAINERS: Add INTEL MERRIFIELD GPIO entry gpio: dwapb: add missing fwnode_handle_put() in dwapb_gpio_get_pdata() gpio: merrifield: Protect irq_ack() and gpio_set() by lock gpio: merrifield: Introduce GPIO driver to support Merrifield gpio: intel-mid: Make it depend to X86_INTEL_MID gpio: intel-mid: Sort header block alphabetically gpio: intel-mid: Remove potentially harmful code gpio: rcar: add R8A7792 support gpiolib: remove duplicated include from gpiolib.c Revert "gpio: convince line to become input in irq helper" gpiolib: of_find_gpio(): Don't discard errors gpio: of: Allow overriding the device node gpio: free handles in fringe cases gpio: tps65218: Add platform_device_id table gpio: max77620: get gpio value based on direction gpio: lynxpoint: avoid potential warning on error path tools/gpio: add install section tools/gpio: move to tools buildsystem gpio: intel-mid: switch to devm_gpiochip_add_data() gpio: 74x164: Use spi_write() helper instead of open coding ...

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "Again, the majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem, but there are no big features this time. The cpufreq changes that stand out somewhat are the governor interface rework and improvements related to the handling of frequency tables. Apart from those, there are fixes and new device/CPU IDs in drivers, cleanups and an improvement of the new schedutil governor. Next, there are some changes in the hibernation core, including a fix for a nasty problem related to the MONITOR/MWAIT usage by CPU offline during resume from hibernation, a few core improvements related to memory management during resume, a couple of additional debug features and cleanups. Finally, we have some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq subsystem, generic power domains framework improvements related to system suspend/resume, support for some new chips in intel_idle and in the power capping RAPL driver, a new version of the AnalyzeSuspend utility and some assorted fixes and cleanups. Specifics: - Rework the cpufreq governor interface to make it more straightforward and modify the conservative governor to avoid using transition notifications (Rafael Wysocki). - Rework the handling of frequency tables by the cpufreq core to make it more efficient (Viresh Kumar). - Modify the schedutil governor to reduce the number of wakeups it causes to occur in cases when the CPU frequency doesn't need to be changed (Steve Muckle, Viresh Kumar). - Fix some minor issues and clean up code in the cpufreq core and governors (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar). - Add Intel Broxton support to the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Fix problems related to the config TDP feature and to the validity of the MSR_HWP_INTERRUPT register in intel_pstate (Jan Kiszka, Srinivas Pandruvada). - Make intel_pstate update the cpu_frequency tracepoint even if the frequency doesn't change to avoid confusing powertop (Rafael Wysocki). - Clean up the usage of __init/__initdata in intel_pstate, mark some of its internal variables as __read_mostly and drop an unused structure element from it (Jisheng Zhang, Carsten Emde). - Clean up the usage of some duplicate MSR symbols in intel_pstate and turbostat (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Update/fix the powernv, s3c24xx and mvebu cpufreq drivers (Akshay Adiga, Viresh Kumar, Ben Dooks). - Fix a regression (introduced during the 4.5 cycle) in the pcc-cpufreq driver by reverting the problematic commit (Andreas Herrmann). - Add support for Intel Denverton to intel_idle, clean up Broxton support in it and make it explicitly non-modular (Jacob Pan, Jan Beulich, Paul Gortmaker). - Add support for Denverton and Ivy Bridge server to the Intel RAPL power capping driver and make it more careful about the handing of MSRs that may not be present (Jacob Pan, Xiaolong Wang). - Fix resume from hibernation on x86-64 by making the CPU offline during resume avoid using MONITOR/MWAIT in the "play dead" loop which may lead to an inadvertent "revival" of a "dead" CPU and a page fault leading to a kernel crash from it (Rafael Wysocki). - Make memory management during resume from hibernation more straightforward (Rafael Wysocki). - Add debug features that should help to detect problems related to hibernation and resume from it (Rafael Wysocki, Chen Yu). - Clean up hibernation core somewhat (Rafael Wysocki). - Prevent KASAN from instrumenting the hibernation core which leads to large numbers of false-positives from it (James Morse). - Prevent PM (hibernate and suspend) notifiers from being called during the cleanup phase if they have not been called during the corresponding preparation phase which is possible if one of the other notifiers returns an error at that time (Lianwei Wang). - Improve suspend-related debug printout in the tasks freezer and clean up suspend-related console handling (Roger Lu, Borislav Petkov). - Update the AnalyzeSuspend script in the kernel sources to version 4.2 (Todd Brandt). - Modify the generic power domains framework to make it handle system suspend/resume better (Ulf Hansson). - Make the runtime PM framework avoid resuming devices synchronously when user space changes the runtime PM settings for them and improve its error reporting (Rafael Wysocki, Linus Walleij). - Fix error paths in devfreq drivers (exynos, exynos-ppmu, exynos-bus) and in the core, make some devfreq code explicitly non-modular and change some of it into tristate (Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz, Peter Chen, Paul Gortmaker). - Add DT support to the generic PM clocks management code and make it export some more symbols (Jon Hunter, Paul Gortmaker). - Make the PCI PM core code slightly more robust against possible driver errors (Andy Shevchenko). -

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - initially based on Jens' 'for-4.8/core' (given all the flag churn) and later merged with 'for-4.8/core' to pickup the QUEUE_FLAG_DAX commits that DM depends on to provide its DAX support - clean up the bio-based vs request-based DM core code by moving the request-based DM core code out to dm-rq.[hc] - reinstate bio-based support in the DM multipath target (done with the idea that fast storage like NVMe over Fabrics could benefit) -- while preserving support for request_fn and blk-mq request-based DM mpath - SCSI and DM multipath persistent reservation fixes that were coordinated with Martin Petersen. - the DM raid target saw the most extensive change this cycle; it now provides reshape and takeover support (by layering ontop of the corresponding MD capabilities) - DAX support for DM core and the linear, stripe and error targets - a DM thin-provisioning block discard vs allocation race fix that addresses potential for corruption - a stable fix for DM verity-fec's block calculation during decode - a few cleanups and fixes to DM core and various targets * tag 'dm-4.8-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (73 commits) dm: allow bio-based table to be upgraded to bio-based with DAX support dm snap: add fake origin_direct_access dm stripe: add DAX support dm error: add DAX support dm linear: add DAX support dm: add infrastructure for DAX support dm thin: fix a race condition between discarding and provisioning a block dm btree: fix a bug in dm_btree_find_next_single() dm raid: fix random optimal_io_size for raid0 dm raid: address checkpatch.pl complaints dm: call PR reserve/unreserve on each underlying device sd: don't use the ALL_TG_PT bit for reservations dm: fix second blk_delay_queue() parameter to be in msec units not jiffies dm raid: change logical functions to actually return bool dm raid: use rdev_for_each in status dm raid: use rs->raid_disks to avoid memory leaks on free dm raid: support delta_disks for raid1, fix table output dm raid: enhance reshape check and factor out reshape setup dm raid: allow resize during recovery dm raid: fix rs_is_recovering() to allow for lvextend ...
