modpost: don't emit section mismatch warnings for compiler optimizations

2017-11-11T13:33:42+00:00

commit 4a3893d069b788f3570c19c12d9e986e8e15870f upstream. Currently an allyesconfig build [gcc-4.9.1] can generate the following: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x3864): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpumask_empty.constprop.3() to the variable .init.data:nmi_ipi_mask which comes from the cpumask_empty usage in arch/x86/kernel/nmi_selftest.c. Normally we would not see a symbol entry for cpumask_empty since it is: static inline bool cpumask_empty(const struct cpumask *srcp) however in this case, the variant of the symbol gets emitted when GCC does constant propagation optimization. Fix things up so that any locally optimized constprop variants don't warn when accessing variables that live in the __init sections.

modpost: expand pattern matching to support substring matches

2017-11-11T13:33:42+00:00

commit 09c20c032b0f753969ae778d9783d946f054d7fe upstream. Currently the match() function supports a leading * to match any prefix and a trailing * to match any suffix. However there currently is not a combination of both that can be used to target matches of whole families of functions that share a common substring. Here we expand the *foo and foo* match to also support *foo* with the goal of targeting compiler generated symbol names that contain strings like ".constprop." and ".isra."

sched: add macros to define bitops for task atomic flags

2017-10-12T14:28:22+00:00

commit e0e5070b20e01f0321f97db4e4e174f3f6b49e50 upstream. This will simplify code when we add new flags. v3: - Kees pointed out that no_new_privs should never be cleared, so we shouldn't define task_clear_no_new_privs(). we define 3 macros instead of a single one. v2: - updated scripts/tags.sh, suggested by Peter Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Miao Xie Cc: Tetsuo Handa Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Acked-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Zefan Li Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

tags: honor COMPILED_SOURCE with apart output directory

2017-09-15T17:29:57+00:00

commit cbf52a3e6a8a92beec6e0c70abf4111cd8f8faf7 upstream. When the kernel is compiled with an "O=" argument, the object files are not in the source tree, but in the build tree. This patch fixes O= build by looking for object files in the build tree.

kconfig/nconf: Fix hang when editing symbol with a long prompt

2017-03-16T02:26:33+00:00

commit 79e51b5c2deea542b3bb8c66e0d502230b017dde upstream. Currently it is impossible to edit the value of a config symbol with a prompt longer than (terminal width - 2) characters. dialog_inputbox() calculates a negative x-offset for the input window and newwin() fails as this is invalid. It also doesn't check for this failure, so it busy-loops calling wgetch(NULL) which immediately returns -1. The additions in the offset calculations also don't match the intended size of the window. Limit the window size and calculate the offset similarly to show_scroll_win().

scripts/has-stack-protector: add -fno-PIE

2017-02-23T03:54:31+00:00

commit 82031ea29e454b574bc6f49a33683a693ca5d907 upstream. Adding -no-PIE to the fstack protector check. -no-PIE was introduced before -fstack-protector so there is no need for a runtime check. Without it the build stops: |Cannot use CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG: -fstack-protector-strong available but compiler is broken due to -mcmodel=kernel + -fPIE if -fPIE is enabled by default. Tagging it stable so it is possible to compile recent stable kernels as well. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Signed-off-by: Michal Marek Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

ftrace/recordmcount: Work around for addition of metag magic but not relocations

2016-11-20T01:17:03+00:00

commit b2e1c26f0b62531636509fbcb6dab65617ed8331 upstream. 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.

of: fix autoloading due to broken modalias with no 'compatible'

2016-08-22T21:38:10+00:00

commit b3c0a4dab7e35a9b6d69c0415641d2280fdefb2b upstream. Because of an improper dereference, a stray 'C' character was output to the modalias when no 'compatible' was specified. This is the case for some old PowerMac drivers which only set the 'name' property. Fix it to let them match again.

kbuild: move -Wunused-const-variable to W=1 warning level

2016-08-22T21:37:57+00:00

commit c9c6837d39311b0cc14cdbe7c18e815ab44aefb1 upstream. gcc-6 started warning by default about variables that are not used anywhere and that are marked 'const', generating many false positives in an allmodconfig build, e.g.: arch/arm/mach-davinci/board-da830-evm.c:282:20: warning: 'da830_evm_emif25_pins' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] arch/arm/plat-omap/dmtimer.c:958:34: warning: 'omap_timer_match' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcm.c:625:39: warning: 'acpi_bcm_default_gpios' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:92:18: warning: 'reg_map_omap4' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/devfreq/exynos/exynos5_bus.c:381:32: warning: 'exynos5_busfreq_int_pm' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/dma/mv_xor.c:1139:34: warning: 'mv_xor_dt_ids' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] This is similar to the existing -Wunused-but-set-variable warning that was added in an earlier release and that we disable by default now and only enable when W=1 is set, so it makes sense to do the same here. Once we have eliminated the majority of the warnings for both, we can put them back into the default list. We probably want this in backport kernels as well, to allow building them with gcc-6 without introducing extra warnings.

kbuild/mkspec: fix grub2 installkernel issue

2016-04-30T22:05:51+00:00

commit c8b08ca558c0067bc9e15ce3f1e70af260410bb2 upstream. mkspec is copying built kernel to temporrary location /boot/vmlinuz-$KERNELRELEASE-rpm and runs installkernel on it. This however directly leads to grub2 menuentry for this suffixed binary being generated as well during the run of installkernel script. Later in the process the temporary -rpm suffixed files are removed, and therefore we end up with spurious (and non-functional) grub2 menu entries for each installed kernel RPM. Fix that by using a different temporary name (prefixed by '.'), so that the binary is not recognized as an actual kernel binary and no menuentry is created for it.
