modpost: Amend ppc64 save/restfpr symnames for -Os build

2026-03-04T12:20:43+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3cd9763ce4ad999d015cf0734e6b968cead95077 ] Building a size optimized ppc64 kernel (-Os), gcc emits more FP save/restore symbols, that the linker generates on demand into the .sfpr section. Explicitly allow-list those in scripts/mod/modpost.c, too. They are needed for the amdgpu in-kernel floating point support.

modpost: fix input MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() built for 64-bit on 32-bit host

2025-01-09T12:32:06+00:00

[ 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.

modpost: Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS

2024-12-14T18:59:56+00:00

commit 7912405643a14b527cd4a4f33c1d4392da900888 upstream. The compiler can fully inline the actual handler function of an interrupt entry into the .irqentry.text entry point. If such a function contains an access which has an exception table entry, modpost complains about a section mismatch: WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ex_table+0x447c): Section mismatch in reference ... The relocation at __ex_table+0x447c references section ".irqentry.text" which is not in the list of authorized sections. Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS to cure the issue.

modpost: remove incorrect code in do_eisa_entry()

2024-12-09T09:32:59+00:00

[ 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->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.

init/modpost: conditionally check section mismatch to __meminit*

2024-12-09T09:32:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit 73db3abdca58c8a014ec4c88cf5ef925cbf63669 ] This reverts commit eb8f689046b8 ("Use separate sections for __dev/ _cpu/__mem code/data"). Check section mismatch to __meminit* only when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n. With this change, the linker script and modpost become simpler, and we can get rid of the __ref annotations from the memory hotplug code.
