      scripts/kallsyms: fix wrong kallsyms_relative_base · 7883a143
      Mikhail Petrov authored 
      There is the code in the read_symbol function in 'scripts/kallsyms.c':

	if (is_ignored_symbol(name, type))
		return NULL;

	/* Ignore most absolute/undefined (?) symbols. */
	if (strcmp(name, "_text") == 0)
		_text = addr;

But the is_ignored_symbol function returns true for name="_text" and
type='A'. So the next condition is not executed and the _text variable
is always zero.

It makes the wrong kallsyms_relative_base symbol as a result of the code
(CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE is defined):

	if (base_relative) {
		output_label("kallsyms_relative_base");
		output_address(relative_base);
		printf("\n");
	}

Because the output_address function uses the _text variable.

So the kallsyms_lookup function and all related functions in the kernel
do not work properly. For example, the stack trace in oops:

 Call Trace:
 [aa095e58] [809feab8] kobj_ns_ops_tbl+0x7ff09ac8/0x7ff1c1c4 (unreliable)

The right stack trace:

      initramfs: restore default compression behavior · 785d74ec
      Eugeniy Paltsev authored 
      Even though INITRAMFS_SOURCE kconfig option isn't set in most of
defconfigs it is used (set) extensively by various build systems.
Commit f26661e1 ("initramfs: make initramfs compression choice
non-optional") has changed default compression mode. Previously we
compress initramfs using available compression algorithm. Now
we don't use any compression at all by default.
It significantly increases the image size in case of build system
chooses embedded initramfs. Initially I faced with this issue while
using buildroot.

As of today it's not possible to set preferred compression mode
in target defconfig as this option depends on INITRAMFS_SOURCE
being set. Modification of all build systems either doesn't look
like good option.

Let's instead rewrite initramfs compression mode choices list
the way that "INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE" will be the last option
in the list. In that case it will be chosen only if all other
options (which implements any compression) are not available.

      modpost: move the namespace field in Module.symvers last · 5190044c
      Jessica Yu authored 
      In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to
move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E
option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol
versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc,
symbol, module).

In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that
suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I
suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are
no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export
type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbced), which is over a decade ago now.

Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the
original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order
to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export
type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the
field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have
a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next
delimiter or end of line will follow.

      int128: fix __uint128_t compiler test in Kconfig · 3a7c7331
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      The support for __uint128_t is dependent on the target bit size.

GCC that defaults to the 32-bit can still build the 64-bit kernel
with -m64 flag passed.

However, $(cc-option,-D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) is evaluated against the
default machine bit, which may not match to the kernel it is building.

Theoretically, this could be evaluated separately for 64BIT/32BIT.

  config CC_HAS_INT128
          bool
          default !$(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) if 64BIT
          default !$(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0)

I simplified it more because the 32-bit compiler is unlikely to support
__uint128_t.

      kconfig: introduce m32-flag and m64-flag · 8cc4fd73
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      When a compiler supports multiple architectures, some compiler features
can be dependent on the target architecture.

This is typical for Clang, which supports multiple LLVM backends.
Even for GCC, we need to take care of biarch compiler cases.

It is not a problem when we evaluate cc-option in Makefiles because
cc-option is tested against the flag in question + $(KBUILD_CFLAGS).

The cc-option in Kconfig, on the other hand, does not accumulate
tested flags. Due to this simplification, it could potentially test
cc-option against a different target.

At first, Kconfig always evaluated cc-option against the host
architecture.

Since commit e8de12fb ("kbuild: Check for unknown options with
cc-option usage in Kconfig and clang"), in case of cross-compiling
with Clang, the target triple is correctly passed to Kconfig.

The case with biarch GCC (and native build with Clang) is still not
handled properly. We need to pass some flags to specify the target
machine bit.

Due to the design, all the macros in Kconfig are expanded in the
parse stage, where we do not know the target bit size yet.

For example, arch/x86/Kconfig allows a user to toggle CONFIG_64BIT.
If a compiler flag -foo depends on the machine bit, it must be tested
twice, one with -m32 and the other with -m64.

However, -m32/-m64 are not always recognized. So, this commits adds
m64-flag and m32-flag macros. They expand to -m32, -m64, respectively
if supported. Or, they expand to an empty string if unsupported.

The typical usage is like this:

  config FOO
          bool
          default $(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -foo) if 64BIT
          default $(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -foo)

This is clumsy, but there is no elegant way to handle this in the
current static macro expansion.

There was discussion for static functions vs dynamic functions.
The consensus was to go as far as possible with the static functions.

      ext4: potential crash on allocation error in ext4_alloc_flex_bg_array() · 37b0b6b8
      Dan Carpenter authored 
      If sbi->s_flex_groups_allocated is zero and the first allocation fails
then this code will crash.  The problem is that "i--" will set "i" to
-1 but when we compare "i >= sbi->s_flex_groups_allocated" then the -1
is type promoted to unsigned and becomes UINT_MAX.  Since UINT_MAX
is more than zero, the condition is true so we call kvfree(new_groups[-1]).
The loop will carry on freeing invalid memory until it crashes.

      macintosh: therm_windtunnel: fix regression when instantiating devices · 38b17afb
      Wolfram Sang authored 
      Removing attach_adapter from this driver caused a regression for at
least some machines. Those machines had the sensors described in their
DT, too, so they didn't need manual creation of the sensor devices. The
old code worked, though, because manual creation came first. Creation of
DT devices then failed later and caused error logs, but the sensors
worked nonetheless because of the manually created devices.

When removing attach_adaper, manual creation now comes later and loses
the race. The sensor devices were already registered via DT, yet with
another binding, so the driver could not be bound to it.

This fix refactors the code to remove the race and only manually creates
devices if there are no DT nodes present. Also, the DT binding is updated
to match both, the DT and manually created devices. Because we don't
know which device creation will be used at runtime, the code to start
the kthread is moved to do_probe() which will be called by both methods.
