kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-y

2020-02-03T16:53:07+00:00

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004. It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration. This commit renames like follows: always -> always-y hostprogs-y -> hostprogs So, scripts/Makefile will look like this: always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ... always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ... ... hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m) I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier. The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward compatibility for a while.

x86/insn: Fix awk regexp warnings

2019-10-01T10:13:16+00:00

gawk 5.0.1 generates the following regexp warnings: GEN /home/sasha/torvalds/tools/objtool/arch/x86/lib/inat-tables.c awk: ../arch/x86/tools/gen-insn-attr-x86.awk:260: warning: regexp escape sequence `\:' is not a known regexp operator awk: ../arch/x86/tools/gen-insn-attr-x86.awk:350: (FILENAME=../arch/x86/lib/x86-opcode-map.txt FNR=41) warning: regexp escape sequence `\&' is not a known regexp operator Ealier versions of gawk are not known to generate these warnings. The gawk manual referenced below does not list characters ':' and '&' as needing escaping, so 'unescape' them. See https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/Escape-Sequences.html for more info. Running diff on the output generated by the script before and after applying the patch reported no differences.

x86/paravirt: Standardize 'insn_buff' variable names

2019-04-29T14:05:49+00:00

We currently have 6 (!) separate naming variants to name temporary instruction buffers that are used for code patching: - insnbuf - insnbuff - insn_buff - insn_buffer - ibuf - ibuffer These are used as local variables, percpu fields and function parameters. Standardize all the names to a single variant: 'insn_buff'. Cc: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Brian Gerst Cc: Dave Hansen Cc: Denys Vlasenko Cc: H.

x86/tools/relocs: Fix big section header tables

2019-04-19T18:54:07+00:00

In case when the number of entries in the section header table is larger then or equal to SHN_LORESERVE the size of the table is held in the sh_size member of the initial entry in section header table instead of e_shnum. Same with the string table index which is located in sh_link instead of e_shstrndx. This case is easily reproducible with KCFLAGS="-ffunction-sections", bzImage build fails with "String table index out of bounds" error.

x86/irq/64: Split the IRQ stack into its own pages

2019-04-17T13:37:02+00:00

Currently, the IRQ stack is hardcoded as the first page of the percpu area, and the stack canary lives on the IRQ stack. The former gets in the way of adding an IRQ stack guard page, and the latter is a potential weakness in the stack canary mechanism. Split the IRQ stack into its own private percpu pages.
