commit c8fb7d7e48d11520ad24808cfce7afb7b9c9f798 upstream.
Running randconfig on arm64 using KCONFIG_SEED=0x40C5E904 (e.g. on v5.5)
produces the .config with CONFIG_EFI=y and CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y,
which does not meet the !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN dependency.
This is because the user choice for CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN vs
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is set by randomize_choice_values() after the
value of CONFIG_EFI is calculated.
When this happens, the has_changed flag should be set.
Currently, it takes the result from the last iteration. It should
accumulate all the results of the loop.
Fixes: 3b9a19e08960 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some symbols in randconfig")

commit 78283edf2c01c38eb840a3de5ffd18fe2992ab64 upstream.
I tried to use 'make O=...' from an unclean source tree. This triggered
the error path of setlocalversion. But by printing to STDOUT, it created
a broken localversion which then caused another (unrelated) error:
"4.7.0-rc2Error: kernelrelease not valid - run make prepare to update it" exceeds 64 characters
After printing to STDERR, the true build error gets displayed later:
/home/wsa/Kernel/linux is not clean, please run 'make mrproper'
in the '/home/wsa/Kernel/linux' directory.

run simultaneously without deadlock
commit 10dce8af34226d90fa56746a934f8da5dcdba3df upstream.
[ while porting to 3.16 xenbus conflict was trivially resolved in a way
that actually fixes /proc/xen/xenbus deadlock introduced in 3.14,
because original upstream commit 581d21a2d02a to fix xenbus deadlock
was not included into 3.16 . ]
Commit 9c225f2655e3 ("vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX") added
locking for file.f_pos access and in particular made concurrent read and
write not possible - now both those functions take f_pos lock for the
whole run, and so if e.g. a read is blocked waiting for data, write will
deadlock waiting for that read to complete.
This caused regression for stream-like files where previously read and
write could run simultaneously, but after that patch could not do so
anymore. See e.g. commit 581d21a2d02a ("xenbus: fix deadlock on writes
to /proc/xen/xenbus") which fixes such regression for particular case of
/proc/xen/xenbus.
The patch that added f_pos lock in 2014 did so to guarantee POSIX thread
safety for read/write/lseek and added the locking to file descriptors of
all regular files. In 2014 that thread-safety problem was not new as it
was already discussed earlier in 2006.
However even though 2006'th version of Linus's patch was adding f_pos
locking "only for files that are marked seekable with FMODE_LSEEK (thus
avoiding the stream-like objects like pipes and sockets)", the 2014
version - the one that actually made it into the tree as 9c225f2655e3 -
is doing so irregardless of whether a file is seekable or not.
See
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/53022DB1.4070805@gmail.com/
https://lwn.net/Articles/180387
https://lwn.net/Articles/180396
for historic context.
The reason that it did so is, probably, that there are many files that
are marked non-seekable, but e.g. their read implementation actually
depends on knowing current position to correctly handle the read. Some
examples:
kernel/power/user.c snapshot_read
fs/debugfs/file.c u32_array_read
fs/fuse/control.c fuse_conn_waiting_read + ...
drivers/hwmon/asus_atk0110.c atk_debugfs_ggrp_read
arch/s390/hypfs/inode.c hypfs_read_iter
...
Despite that, many nonseekable_open users implement read and write with
pure stream semantics - they don't depend on passed ppos at all. And for
those cases where read could wait for something inside, it creates a
situation similar to xenbus - the write could be never made to go until
read is done, and read is waiting for some, potentially external, event,
for potentially unbounded time -> deadlock.
Besides xenbus, there are 14 such places in the kernel that I've found
with semantic patch (see below):
drivers/xen/evtchn.c:667:8-24: ERROR: evtchn_fops: .read() can deadlock .write()
drivers/isdn/capi/capi.c:963:8-24: ERROR: capi_fops: .read() can deadlock .write()

drivers/gnss/core.c:45:1-17: ERROR: gnss_fops: .read() can deadlock .write()
In addition to the cases above another regression caused by f_pos
locking is that now FUSE filesystems that implement open with
FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flag, can no longer implement bidirectional
stream-like files - for the same reason as above e.g. read can deadlock
write locking on file.f_pos in the kernel.
FUSE's FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE was added in 2008 in a7c1b990f715 ("fuse:
implement nonseekable open") to support OSSPD. OSSPD implements /dev/dsp
in userspace with FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flag, with corresponding read and
write routines not depending on current position at all, and with both
read and write being potentially blocking operations:
See
https://github.com/libfuse/osspd
https://lwn.net/Articles/308445
https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1406
https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1438-L1477
https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1479-L1510
Corresponding libfuse example/test also describes FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE as
"somewhat pipe-like files ..." with read handler not using offset.
However that test implements only read without write and cannot exercise
the deadlock scenario:
https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L124-L131
https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L146-L163
https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L209-L216
I've actually hit the read vs write deadlock for real while implementing
my FUSE filesystem where there is /head/watch file, for which open
creates separate bidirectional socket-like stream in between filesystem
and its user with both read and write being later performed
simultaneously. And there it is semantically not easy to split the
stream into two separate read-only and write-only channels:
https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/wendelin.core/blob/f13aa600/wcfs/wcfs.go#L88-169
Let's fix this regression. The plan is:
1. We can't change nonseekable_open to include &~FMODE_ATOMIC_POS -
doing so would break many in-kernel nonseekable_open users which
actually use ppos in read/write handlers.
2. Add stream_open() to kernel to open stream-like non-seekable file
descriptors. Read and write on such file descriptors would never use
nor change ppos. And with that property on stream-like files read and
write will be running without taking f_pos lock - i.e. read and write
could be running simultaneously.
3. With semantic patch search and convert to stream_open all in-kernel
nonseekable_open users for which read and write actually do not
depend on ppos and where there is no other methods in file_operations
which assume @offset access.
4. Add FOPEN_STREAM to fs/fuse/ and open in-kernel file-descriptors via
steam_open if that bit is present in filesystem open reply.
It was tempting to change fs/fuse/ open handler to use stream_open
instead of nonseekable_open on just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flags, but
grepping through Debian codesearch shows users of FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE,
and in particular GVFS which actually uses offset in its read and
write handlers
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=-%3Enonseekable+%3D
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1080
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1247-1346
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1399-1481
so if we would do such a change it will break a real user.
5. Add stream_open and FOPEN_STREAM handling to stable kernels starting
from v3.14+ (the kernel where 9c225f2655 first appeared).
This will allow to patch OSSPD and other FUSE filesystems that
provide stream-like files to return FOPEN_STREAM | FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE
in their open handler and this way avoid the deadlock on all kernel
versions. This should work because fs/fuse/ ignores unknown open
flags returned from a filesystem and so passing FOPEN_STREAM to a
kernel that is not aware of this flag cannot hurt. In turn the kernel
that is not aware of FOPEN_STREAM will be < v3.14 where just
FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE is sufficient to implement streams without read vs
write deadlock.
This patch adds stream_open, converts /proc/xen/xenbus to it and adds
semantic patch to automatically locate in-kernel places that are either
required to be converted due to read vs write deadlock, or that are just
safe to be converted because read and write do not use ppos and there
are no other funky methods in file_operations.
Regarding semantic patch I've verified each generated change manually -
that it is correct to convert - and each other nonseekable_open instance
left - that it is either not correct to convert there, or that it is not
converted due to current stream_open.cocci limitations.
The script also does not convert files that should be valid to convert,
but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek for
unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.

commit caf7501a1b4ec964190f31f9c3f163de252273b8 upstream.
There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
right compiler or the right option.
To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
or prebuilt object files are not checked.
If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.

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.

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."

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().

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.

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: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.

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.

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.

commit 6b87b70c5339f30e3c5b32085e69625906513dc2 upstream.
Prior to 3.13 make allmodconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=/dev/null used
to be equivalent to make allmodconfig; these days it hardwires MODULES to n.
In fact, any KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG that doesn't set MODULES explicitly is
treated as if it set it to n.
Regression had been introduced by commit cfa98f ("kconfig: do not
override symbols already set"); what happens is that conf_read_simple()
does sym_calc_value(modules_sym) on exit, which leaves SYMBOL_VALID set and
has conf_set_all_new_symbols() skip modules_sym.
It's pretty easy to fix - simply move that call of sym_calc_value()
into the callers, except for the ones in KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG handling.

commit 2e50c4bef77511b42cc226865d6bc568fa7f8769 upstream.
If a text section starts out with a data blob before the first
function start label, disassembly parsing doing in recordmcount.pl
gets confused on powerpc, leading to creation of corrupted module
objects.
This was not a problem so far since the compiler would never create
such text sections. However, this has changed with a recent change
in GCC 6 to support distances of > 2GB between a function and its
assoicated TOC in the ELFv2 ABI, exposing this problem.
There is already code in recordmcount.pl to handle such data blobs
on the sparc64 platform. This patch uses the same method to handle
those on powerpc as well.

commit a50bd43935586420fb75f4558369eb08566fac5e upstream.
Russell King found that he had weird side effects when compiling the kernel
with hard linked ccache. The reason was that recordmcount modified the
kernel in place via mmap, and when a file gets modified twice by
recordmcount, it will complain about it. To fix this issue, Russell wrote a
patch that checked if the file was hard linked more than once and would
unlink it if it was.
Linus Torvalds was not happy with the fact that recordmcount does this in
place modification. Instead of doing the unlink only if the file has two or
more hard links, it does the unlink all the time. In otherwords, it always
does a copy if it changed something. That is, it does the write out if a
change was made.

commit 7b990789a4c3420fa57596b368733158e432d444 upstream.
The change from \d+ to .+ inside __aligned() means that the following
structure:
struct test {
u8 a __aligned(2);
u8 b __aligned(2);
};
essentially gets modified to
struct test {
u8 a;
};
for purposes of kernel-doc, thus dropping a struct member, which in
turns causes warnings and invalid kernel-doc generation.
Fix this by replacing the catch-all (".") with anything that's not a
semicolon ("[^;]").

Object-like macros are different than function-like macros:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Object-like-Macros.html
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Function-like-Macros.html
They are not parsed correctly, generating invalid intermediate
files (xmls) for cases like:
#define BIT_MASK (0xFF << BIT_SHIFT)
where "OxFF <<" is considered to be parameter type.
When parsing, we can differentiate beween these two types of macros by
checking whether there is at least one whitespace b/w "#define" and
first opening parenthesis.

On MIPS calls to _mcount in modules generate 2 instructions to load
the _mcount address (and therefore 2 relocations). The mcount_loc
table should only reference the first of these, so the second is
filtered out by checking the relocation offset and ignoring ones that
immediately follow the previous one seen.
However if a module has an _mcount call at offset 0, the second
relocation would not be filtered out due to old_r_offset == 0
being taken to mean that the current relocation is the first one
seen, and both would end up in the mcount_loc table.
This results in ftrace_make_nop() patching both (adjacent)
instructions to branches over the _mcount call sequence like so:
0xffffffffc08a8000: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8014
0xffffffffc08a8004: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8018
0xffffffffc08a8008: 2d 08 e0 03 move at,ra
...
The second branch is in the delay slot of the first, which is
defined to be unpredictable - on the platform on which this bug was
encountered, it triggers a reserved instruction exception.
Fix by initializing old_r_offset to ~0 and using that instead of 0
to determine whether the current relocation is the first seen.

now relative $(objtree).

When $srctree or $objtree are relative paths, we cannot change directory
and refer to them in the same subshell. Do the redirection outside of
the subshell to fix this.

Pull module updates from Rusty Russell:
"Most of this is cleaning up various driver sysfs permissions so we can
re-add the perm check (we unified the module param and sysfs checks,
but the module ones were stronger so we weakened them temporarily).
Param parsing gets documented, and also "--" now forces args to be
handed to init (and ignored by the kernel).
Module NX/RO protections get tightened: we now set them before calling

Right now when people try to report issues in the kernel they send stack
dumps to eachother, which looks something like this:
[ 6.906437] [<ffffffff811f0e90>] ? backtrace_test_irq_callback+0x20/0x20
[ 6.907121] [<ffffffff84388ce8>] dump_stack+0x52/0x7f
[ 6.907640] [<ffffffff811f0ec8>] backtrace_regression_test+0x38/0x110
[ 6.908281] [<ffffffff813596a0>] ? proc_create_data+0xa0/0xd0
[ 6.908870] [<ffffffff870a8040>] ? proc_modules_init+0x22/0x22
[ 6.909480] [<ffffffff810020c2>] do_one_initcall+0xc2/0x1e0
[...]
However, most of the text you get is pure garbage.
The only useful thing above is the function name. Due to the amount of
different kernel code versions and various configurations being used,
the kernel address and the offset into the function are not really
helpful in determining where the problem actually occured.
Too often the result of someone looking at a stack dump is asking the
person who sent it for a translation for one or more 'addr2line'
translations. Which slows down the entire process of debugging the
issue (and really annoying).
The decode_stacktrace script is an attempt to make the output more
useful and easy to work with by translating all kernel addresses in the
stack dump into line numbers. Which means that the stack dump would
look like this:
[ 635.148361] dump_stack (lib/dump_stack.c:52)
[ 635.149127] warn_slowpath_common (kernel/panic.c:418)
[ 635.150214] warn_slowpath_null (kernel/panic.c:453)
[ 635.151031] _oalloc_pages_slowpath+0x6a/0x7d0
[ 635.152171] ? zone_watermark_ok (mm/page_alloc.c:1728)
[ 635.152988] ? get_page_from_freelist (mm/page_alloc.c:1939)
[ 635.154766] __alloc_pages_nodemask (mm/page_alloc.c:2766)
It's pretty obvious why this is better than the previous stack dump
before.
Usage is pretty simple:
./decode_stacktrace.sh [vmlinux] [base path]
Where vmlinux is the vmlinux to extract line numbers from and base path
is the path that points to the root of the build tree, for example:
./decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux /home/sasha/linux/ < input.log > output.log
The stack trace should be piped through it (I, for example, just pipe
the output of the serial console of my KVM test box through it).

For example,
$ scripts/objdiff record init drivers/usb
disassembles all the objects under init and drivers/usb directories.
This feature would be useful when we change various files under the
specific directory.

Prior to this commit, the command "scripts/objdiff record path/to/*.o"
disassembled the given object into ".tmp_objdiff/path/to/*.o" file.
The problem here is that recorded disassemblies are lost if we run
"make clean" because it removes all the *.o files.
Disassembled code should be dumped into *.dis instead of *.o files.

Prior to this commit, scripts/objdiff expected to be run at the top
directory and only the relative path of objects.
This commit provides more flexibility in terms of object path:
[1] scripts/objdiff can be run in any directory
For example,
$ scripts/objdiff record init/main.o
and
$ cd init; ../scripts/objdiff record main.o
produce the same result.
[2] Support absolute path for objects
$ scripts/objdiff record /home/foo/bar/linux/init/main.o
work as well.
