commit c0ccf6f99e3a43b87980c9df7da48427885206d0 upstream.
To use jump labels in assembly we need the HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
define, so we select a fallback version if the toolchain does
not support them.
Modify linux/jump_label.h so it can be included by assembly
files. We also need to add -DCC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO to KBUILD_AFLAGS.

Starting with gcc-8.1, we get a warning about all system call definitions,
which use an alias between functions with incompatible prototypes, e.g.:
In file included from ../mm/process_vm_access.c:19:
../include/linux/syscalls.h:211:18: warning: 'sys_process_vm_readv' alias between functions of incompatible types 'long int(pid_t, const struct iovec *, long unsigned int, const struct iovec *, long unsigned int, long unsigned int)' {aka 'long int(int, const struct iovec *, long unsigned int, const struct iovec *, long unsigned int, long unsigned int)'} and 'long int(long int, long int, long int, long int, long int, long int)' [-Wattribute-alias]

This is really noisy and does not indicate a real problem. In the latest
mainline kernel, this was addressed by commit bee20031772a ("disable
-Wattribute-alias warning for SYSCALL_DEFINEx()"), which seems too invasive
to backport.
This takes a much simpler approach and just disables the warning across the
kernel.

commit bd664f6b3e376a8ef4990f87d08271cc2d01ba9a upstream.
I made the mistake of upgrading my desktop to the new Fedora 26 that
comes with gcc-7.1.1.
There's nothing wrong per se that I've noticed, but I now have 1500
lines of warnings, mostly from the new format-truncation warning
triggering all over the tree.
We use 'snprintf()' and friends in a lot of places, and often know that
the numbers are fairly small (ie a controller index or similar), but gcc
doesn't know that, and sees an 'int', and thinks that it could be some
huge number. And then complains when our buffers are not able to fit
the name for the ten millionth controller.
These warnings aren't necessarily bad per se, and we probably want to
look through them subsystem by subsystem, but at least during the merge
window they just mean that I can't even see if somebody is introducing
any *real* problems when I pull.
So warnings disabled for now.

commit 3ce120b16cc548472f80cf8644f90eda958cf1b6 upstream.
It appears that hardened gentoo enables "-fstack-check" by default for
gcc.
That doesn't work _at_all_ for the kernel, because the kernel stack
doesn't act like a user stack at all: it's much smaller, and it doesn't
auto-expand on use. So the extra "probe one page below the stack" code
generated by -fstack-check just breaks the kernel in horrible ways,
causing infinite double faults etc.
[ I have to say, that the particular code gcc generates looks very
stupid even for user space where it works, but that's a separate
issue. ]

commit 124a3d88fa20e1869fc229d7d8c740cc81944264 upstream.
Newer versions of gcc warn about the use of __builtin_return_address()
with a non-zero argument when "-Wall" is specified:
kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function ‘stop_critical_timings’:
kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:433:86: warning: calling ‘__builtin_return_address’ with a nonzero argument is unsafe [-Wframe-address]
stop_critical_timing(CALLER_ADDR0, CALLER_ADDR1);
[ .. repeats a few times for other similar cases .. ]
It is true that a non-zero argument is somewhat dangerous, and we do not
actually have very many uses of that in the kernel - but the ftrace code
does use it, and as Stephen Rostedt says:
"We are well aware of the danger of using __builtin_return_address() of
> 0. In fact that's part of the reason for having the "thunk" code in
x86 (See arch/x86/entry/thunk_{64,32}.S). [..] it adds extra frames
when tracking irqs off sections, to prevent __builtin_return_address()
from accessing bad areas. In fact the thunk_32.S states: 'Trampoline to
trace irqs off. (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)'."
For now, __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument is the best
we can do, and the warning is not helpful and can end up making people
miss other warnings for real problems.
So disable the frame-address warning on compilers that need it.

commit c6a385539175ebc603da53aafb7753d39089f32e upstream.
So Sebastian turned off the PIE for kernel builds but that was too late
- Kbuild.include already uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and trying to disable gcc
options with, say cc-disable-warning, fails:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -Wall -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs
...
-Wno-sign-compare -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -Wframe-address -c -x c /dev/null -o .31392.tmp
/dev/null:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
because that returns an error and we can't disable the warning. For
example in this case:
KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning,frame-address,)
which leads to gcc issuing all those warnings again.
So let's turn off PIE/PIC at the earliest possible moment, when we
declare KBUILD_CFLAGS so that cc-disable-warning picks it up too.
Also, we need the $(call cc-option ...) because -fno-PIE is supported
since gcc v3.4 and our lowest supported gcc version is 3.2 right now.

commit 8ae94224c9d72fc4d9aaac93b2d7833cf46d7141 upstream.
Debian started to build the gcc with -fPIE by default so the kernel
build ends before it starts properly with:
|kernel/bounds.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
Also add to KBUILD_AFLAGS due to:
|gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/.note.o.d … -mfentry -DCC_USING_FENTRY … vdso/vdso32/note.S
|arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/note.S:1:0: sorry, unimplemented: -mfentry isn’t supported for 32-bit in combination with -fpic
Tagging it stable so it is possible to compile recent stable kernels as
well.

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.
