commit e3b03bf29d6b99fab7001fb20c33fe54928c157a upstream.

Commit 1c199f2878f6 ("kbuild: document recursive dependency limitation
/ resolution") probably intended to show a hint along with "recursive
dependency detected!" error, but it missed to add {...} guard, and the
hint is displayed in every loop of the dep_stack traverse, annoyingly.

This error was detected by GCC's -Wmisleading-indentation when switching
to build-time generation of lexer/parser.

scripts/kconfig/symbol.c: In function ‘sym_check_print_recursive’:
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:1150:3: warning: this ‘if’ clause does not guard... [-Wmisleading-indentation]
   if (stack-&gt;sym == last_sym)
   ^~
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:1153:4: note: ...this statement, but the latter is misleadingly indented as if it were guarded by the ‘if’
    fprintf(stderr, "For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt\n");
    ^~~~~~~

I could simply add {...} to surround the three fprintf(), but I rather
chose to move the hint after the loop to make the whole message readable.

commit 6bfb56e93bcef41859c2d5ab234ffd80b691be35 upstream.

OpenSSL 3.0 deprecated the OpenSSL's ENGINE API.  That is as may be, but
the kernel build host tools still use it.  Disable the warning about
deprecated declarations until somebody who cares fixes it.

commit c969bb8dbaf2f3628927eae73e7c579a74cf1b6e upstream.

The latest version of grep claims that egrep is now obsolete so the build
now contains warnings that look like:
	egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E
fix this by using "grep -E" instead.

commit 2120635108b35ecad9c59c8b44f6cbdf4f98214e upstream.

We enable -Wcast-function-type globally in the kernel to warn about
mismatching types in function pointer casts. Compilers currently
warn only about ABI incompability with this flag, but Clang 16 will
enable a stricter version of the check by default that checks for an
exact type match. This will be very noisy in the kernel, so disable
-Wcast-function-type-strict without W=1 until the new warnings have
been addressed.

[ Upstream commit c17a2538704f926ee4d167ba625e09b1040d8439 ]

When System.map was generated, the kernel used mksysmap to filter the
kernel symbols, we need to filter "L0" symbols in LoongArch architecture.

$ cat System.map | grep L0
9000000000221540 t L0

The L0 symbol exists in System.map, but not in .tmp_System.map. When
"cmp -s System.map .tmp_System.map" will show "Inconsistent kallsyms
data" error message in link-vmlinux.sh script.

commit 23a0cb8e3225122496bfa79172005c587c2d64bf upstream.

When building an external module, if users don't need to separate the
compilation output and source code, they run the following command:
"make -C $(LINUX_SRC_DIR) M=$(PWD)". At this point, "$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)"
and "$(src)" are the same.

If they need to separate them, they run "make -C $(KERNEL_SRC_DIR)
O=$(KERNEL_OUT_DIR) M=$(OUT_DIR) src=$(PWD)". Before running the
command, they need to copy "Kbuild" or "Makefile" to "$(OUT_DIR)" to
prevent compilation failure.

So the kernel should change the included path to avoid the copy operation.

commit 28438794aba47a27e922857d27b31b74e8559143 upstream.

Since commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols"),
EXPORT_SYMBOL* is placed in the individual section ___ksymtab(_gpl)+&lt;sym&gt;
(3 leading underscores instead of 2).

Since then, modpost cannot detect the bad combination of EXPORT_SYMBOL
and __init/__exit.

Fix the .fromsec field.

[ Upstream commit d6b732666a1bae0df3c3ae06925043bba34502b1 ]

The return value of is_arm_mapping_symbol() is unpredictable when "$"
is passed in.

strchr(3) says:
  The strchr() and strrchr() functions return a pointer to the matched
  character or NULL if the character is not found. The terminating null
  byte is considered part of the string, so that if c is specified as
  '\0', these functions return a pointer to the terminator.

When str[1] is '\0', strchr("axtd", str[1]) is not NULL, and str[2] is
referenced (i.e. buffer overrun).

Test code
---------

  char str1[] = "abc";
  char str2[] = "ab";

  strcpy(str1, "$");
  strcpy(str2, "$");

  printf("test1: %d\n", is_arm_mapping_symbol(str1));
  printf("test2: %d\n", is_arm_mapping_symbol(str2));

Result
------

  test1: 0
  test2: 1

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit b5beffa20d83c4e15306c991ffd00de0d8628338 ]

With the `-z unique-symbol` linker flag or any similar mechanism,
it is possible to trigger the following:

ERROR: modpost: "param_set_uint.0" [vmlinux] is a static EXPORT_SYMBOL

The reason is that for now the condition from remove_dot():

if (m &amp;&amp; (s[n + m] == '.' || s[n + m] == 0))

which was designed to test if it's a dot or a '\0' after the suffix
is never satisfied.
This is due to that `s[n + m]` always points to the last digit of a
numeric suffix, not on the symbol next to it (from a custom debug
print added to modpost):

param_set_uint.0, s[n + m] is '0', s[n + m + 1] is '\0'

So it's off-by-one and was like that since 2014.

Fix this for the sake of any potential upcoming features, but don't
bother stable-backporting, as it's well hidden -- apart from that
LD flag, it can be triggered only with GCC LTO which never landed
upstream.

<title>gcc-plugins: latent_entropy: use /dev/urandom</title>

<id>urn:sha1:846737e63cfe7ee81788c4ca9babe0d3bf687677</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c40160f2998c897231f8454bf797558d30a20375 upstream.

While the latent entropy plugin mostly doesn't derive entropy from
get_random_const() for measuring the call graph, when __latent_entropy is
applied to a constant, then it's initialized statically to output from
get_random_const(). In that case, this data is derived from a 64-bit
seed, which means a buffer of 512 bits doesn't really have that amount
of compile-time entropy.

This patch fixes that shortcoming by just buffering chunks of
/dev/urandom output and doling it out as requested.

At the same time, it's important that we don't break the use of
-frandom-seed, for people who want the runtime benefits of the latent
entropy plugin, while still having compile-time determinism. In that
case, we detect whether gcc's set_random_seed() has been called by
making a call to get_random_seed(noinit=true) in the plugin init
function, which is called after set_random_seed() is called but before
anything that calls get_random_seed(noinit=false), and seeing if it's
zero or not. If it's not zero, we're in deterministic mode, and so we
just generate numbers with a basic xorshift prng.

Note that we don't detect if -frandom-seed is being used using the
documented local_tick variable, because it's assigned via:
   local_tick = (unsigned) tv.tv_sec * 1000 + tv.tv_usec / 1000;
which may well overflow and become -1 on its own, and so isn't
reliable: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105171

[kees: The 256 byte rnd_buf size was chosen based on average (250),
 median (64), and std deviation (575) bytes of used entropy for a
 defconfig x86_64 build]
