[ Upstream commit 77dc55a978e69625f9718460012e5ef0172dc4de ]

When building a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit build host, incorrect
input MODULE_ALIAS() entries may be generated.

For example, when compiling a 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=m
on a 64-bit build machine, you will get the correct output:

  $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*14A,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*145,*r*a*0,*1,*18,*1C,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");

However, building the same kernel on a 32-bit machine results in
incorrect output:

  $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*130,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*14A,*16A,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*145,*165,*r*a*0,*1,*18,*1C,*20,*21,*38,*3C,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*130,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");

A similar issue occurs with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m. On a 64-bit build
machine, the output is:

  $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*2,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*8,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*6,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*120,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*130,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*2C0,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");

However, on a 32-bit machine, the output is incorrect:

  $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*20,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*2,*22,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*8,*28,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*6,*26,*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*11F,*13F,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*11F,*13F,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*2C0,*2E0,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");

When building a 64-bit kernel, BITS_PER_LONG is defined as 64. However,
on a 32-bit build machine, the constant 1L is a signed 32-bit value.
Left-shifting it beyond 32 bits causes wraparound, and shifting by 31
or 63 bits makes it a negative value.

The fix in commit e0e92632715f ("[PATCH] PATCH: 1 line 2.6.18 bugfix:
modpost-64bit-fix.patch") is incorrect; it only addresses cases where
a 64-bit kernel is built on a 64-bit build machine, overlooking cases
on a 32-bit build machine.

Using 1ULL ensures a 64-bit width on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines,
avoiding the wraparound issue.

[ Upstream commit 0c3e091319e4748cb36ac9a50848903dc6f54054 ]

This function contains multiple bugs after the following commits:

 - ac551828993e ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard")
 - 6543becf26ff ("mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling")

Commit ac551828993e inserted the following code to do_eisa_entry():

    else
            strcat(alias, "*");

This is incorrect because 'alias' is uninitialized. If it is not
NULL-terminated, strcat() could cause a buffer overrun.

Even if 'alias' happens to be zero-filled, it would output:

    MODULE_ALIAS("*");

This would match anything. As a result, the module could be loaded by
any unrelated uevent from an unrelated subsystem.

Commit ac551828993e introduced another bug.            

Prior to that commit, the conditional check was:

    if (eisa-&gt;sig[0])

This checked if the first character of eisa_device_id::sig was not '\0'.

However, commit ac551828993e changed it as follows:

    if (sig[0])

sig[0] is NOT the first character of the eisa_device_id::sig. The
type of 'sig' is 'char (*)[8]', meaning that the type of 'sig[0]' is
'char [8]' instead of 'char'. 'sig[0]' and 'symval' refer to the same
address, which never becomes NULL.

The correct conversion would have been:

    if ((*sig)[0])

However, this if-conditional was meaningless because the earlier change
in commit ac551828993e was incorrect.

This commit removes the entire incorrect code, which should never have
been executed.

[ Upstream commit 7f54e00e5842663c2cea501bbbdfa572c94348a3 ]

When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(tee, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().

For example, see a case where drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.c
is built as a module for ARM little-endian.

If you build it on a little-endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("tee:ab7a617c-b8e7-4d8f-8301-d09b61036b64*");

However, if you build it on a big-endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("tee:646b0361-9bd0-0183-8f4d-e7b87c617aab*");

The same problem also occurs when you enable CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN,
and build it on a little-endian host.

This issue has been unnoticed because the ARM kernel is configured for
little-endian by default, and most likely built on a little-endian host
(cross-build on x86 or native-build on ARM).

The uuid field must not be reversed because uuid_t is an array of __u8.

Without this 'else' statement, an "usb" name goes into two handlers:
the first/previous 'if' statement _AND_ the for-loop over 'devtable',
but the latter is useless as it has no 'usb' device_id entry anyway.

Tested with allmodconfig before/after patch; no changes to *.mod.c:

    git checkout v6.6-rc3

<id>urn:sha1:0bc44b2b8ba39212258e2742c2806cdcabad7cba</id>
<content type='text'>
The kernel provides the macro MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() where driver authors
can specify their device type and their array of device_ids and thereby
trigger the generation of the appropriate MODULE_ALIAS() output. This is
opposed to having to specify one MODULE_ALIAS() for each device. The WMI
device type is currently not supported.

While using MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() does increase the complexity as well
as spreading out the implementation across the kernel, it does come with
some benefits too;
* It makes different drivers look more similar; if you can specify the
  array of device_ids any device type specific input to MODULE_ALIAS()
  will automatically be generated for you.
* It helps each driver avoid keeping multiple versions of the same
  information in sync. That is, both the array of device_ids and the
  potential multitude of MODULE_ALIAS()'s.

Add WMI support to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() by adding info about struct
wmi_device_id in devicetable-offsets.c and add a WMI entry point in
file2alias.c.

The type argument for MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(type, name) is wmi.

In preparation for adding WMI support to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() move the
definition of struct wmi_device_id to mod_devicetable.h and inline
guid_string in the struct.

Changing guid_string to an inline char array changes the loop conditions
when looping over an array of struct wmi_device_id. Therefore update
wmi_dev_match()'s loop to check for an empty guid_string instead of a
NULL pointer.
