scripts/dtc: Remove redundant YYLOC global declaration
gcc 10 will default to -fno-common, which causes this error at link
time:

This is because both dtc-lexer as well as dtc-parser define the same
global symbol yyloc. Before with -fcommon those were merged into one
defintion. The proper solution would be to to mark this as "extern",
however that leads to:

In the process of creating the source file of a module modpost injects a
set of includes that are not required if the compilation unit is
statically built into the kernel.
The order of inclusion of the headers can cause redefinition problems
(e.g.):
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:5:0,
from include/linux/module.h:18,
from crypto/arc4.mod.c:2:
#define ELF_OSABI ELFOSABI_LINUX
In file included from include/linux/elfnote.h:62:0,
from include/linux/build-salt.h:4,
from crypto/arc4.mod.c:1:
include/uapi/linux/elf.h:363:0: note: this is the location of
the previous definition
#define ELF_OSABI ELFOSABI_NONE
The issue was exposed during the development of the series [1].

There is the code in the read_symbol function in 'scripts/kallsyms.c':
if (is_ignored_symbol(name, type))
return NULL;
/* Ignore most absolute/undefined (?) symbols. */
if (strcmp(name, "_text") == 0)
_text = addr;
But the is_ignored_symbol function returns true for name="_text" and
type='A'. So the next condition is not executed and the _text variable
is always zero.
It makes the wrong kallsyms_relative_base symbol as a result of the code
(CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE is defined):
if (base_relative) {
output_label("kallsyms_relative_base");
output_address(relative_base);
printf("\n");
}
Because the output_address function uses the _text variable.
So the kallsyms_lookup function and all related functions in the kernel
do not work properly. For example, the stack trace in oops:
Call Trace:

Simplify gen_btf logic to make it work with llvm-objcopy. The existing
'file format' and 'architecture' parsing logic is brittle and does not
work with llvm-objcopy/llvm-objdump.
'file format' output of llvm-objdump>=11 will match GNU objdump, but
'architecture' (bfdarch) may not.
.BTF in .tmp_vmlinux.btf is non-SHF_ALLOC. Add the SHF_ALLOC flag
because it is part of vmlinux image used for introspection. C code
can reference the section via linker script defined __start_BTF and
__stop_BTF. This fixes a small problem that previous .BTF had the
SHF_WRITE flag (objcopy -I binary -O elf* synthesized .data).
Additionally, `objcopy -I binary` synthesized symbols
_binary__btf_vmlinux_bin_start and _binary__btf_vmlinux_bin_stop (not
used elsewhere) are replaced with more commonplace __start_BTF and
__stop_BTF.
Add 2>/dev/null because GNU objcopy (but not llvm-objcopy) warns
"empty loadable segment detected at vaddr=0xffffffff81000000, is this intentional?"
We use a dd command to change the e_type field in the ELF header from
ET_EXEC to ET_REL so that lld will accept .btf.vmlinux.bin.o. Accepting
ET_EXEC as an input file is an extremely rare GNU ld feature that lld
does not intend to support, because this is error-prone.
The output section description .BTF in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h
avoids potential subtle orphan section placement issues and suppresses
--orphan-handling=warn warnings.

In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to
move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E
option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol
versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc,
symbol, module).
In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that
suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I
suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are
no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export
type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbcedf4), which is over a decade ago now.
Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the
original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order
to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export
type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the
field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have
a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next
delimiter or end of line will follow.

pull-request: bpf-next 2020-03-13
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
We've added 86 non-merge commits during the last 12 day(s) which contain
a total of 107 files changed, 5771 insertions(+), 1700 deletions(-).
The main changes are:
1) Add modify_return attach type which allows to attach to a function via
BPF trampoline and is run after the fentry and before the fexit programs
and can pass a return code to the original caller, from KP Singh.
2) Generalize BPF's kallsyms handling and add BPF trampoline and dispatcher
objects to be visible in /proc/kallsyms so they can be annotated in
stack traces, from Jiri Olsa.
3) Extend BPF sockmap to allow for UDP next to existing TCP support in order
in order to enable this for BPF based socket dispatch, from Lorenz Bauer.
4) Introduce a new bpftool 'prog profile' command which attaches to existing
BPF programs via fentry and fexit hooks and reads out hardware counters
during that period, from Song Liu. Example usage:
bpftool prog profile id 337 duration 3 cycles instructions llc_misses
4228 run_cnt
3403698 cycles (84.08%)
3525294 instructions # 1.04 insn per cycle (84.05%)
13 llc_misses # 3.69 LLC misses per million isns (83.50%)
5) Batch of improvements to libbpf, bpftool and BPF selftests. Also addition
of a new bpf_link abstraction to keep in particular BPF tracing programs
attached even when the applicaion owning them exits, from Andrii Nakryiko.
6) New bpf_get_current_pid_tgid() helper for tracing to perform PID filtering
and which returns the PID as seen by the init namespace, from Carlos Neira.
7) Refactor of RISC-V JIT code to move out common pieces and addition of a
new RV32G BPF JIT compiler, from Luke Nelson.
8) Add gso_size context member to __sk_buff in order to be able to know whether
a given skb is GSO or not, from Willem de Bruijn.
9) Add a new bpf_xdp_output() helper which reuses XDP's existing perf RB output
implementation but can be called from tracepoint programs, from Eelco Chaudron.

The 'imply' statement may create unmet direct dependency when the
implied symbol depends on m.
[Test Code]
config FOO
tristate "foo"
imply BAZ
config BAZ
tristate "baz"
depends on BAR
config BAR
def_tristate m
config MODULES
def_bool y
option modules
If you set FOO=y, BAZ is also promoted to y, which results in the
following .config file:
CONFIG_FOO=y
CONFIG_BAZ=y
CONFIG_BAR=m
CONFIG_MODULES=y
This does not meet the dependency 'BAZ depends on BAR'.
Unlike 'select', what is worse, Kconfig never shows the
'WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for ...' for this case.
Because 'imply' is considered to be weaker than 'depends on', Kconfig
should take the direct dependency into account.
For clarification, describe this case in kconfig-language.rst too.

only warns when a module is missing namespace imports. Under this

The dt_binding_check target is located outside of the
'ifneq ($(dtstree),) ... endif' block.
So, you can run 'make dt_binding_check' on any architecture.
This makes a perfect sense because the dt-schema is arch-agnostic.
The only one problem I see is that scripts/dtc/dtc is not always built.
For example, ARCH=x86 defconfig does not define CONFIG_DTC. Kbuild
descends into scripts/dtc/ with doing nothing. Then, it fails to build
*.example.dt.yaml files.
Let's build scripts/dtc/dtc forcibly when running dt_binding_check.
The dt-schema does not depend on any CONFIG option either, so you
should be able to run dt_binding_check without the .config file.
Going forward, you can directly run 'make dt_binding_check' in a
pristine source tree.

When a compiler supports multiple architectures, some compiler features
can be dependent on the target architecture.
This is typical for Clang, which supports multiple LLVM backends.
Even for GCC, we need to take care of biarch compiler cases.
It is not a problem when we evaluate cc-option in Makefiles because
cc-option is tested against the flag in question + $(KBUILD_CFLAGS).
The cc-option in Kconfig, on the other hand, does not accumulate
tested flags. Due to this simplification, it could potentially test
cc-option against a different target.
At first, Kconfig always evaluated cc-option against the host
architecture.
Since commit e8de12fb7c ("kbuild: Check for unknown options with
cc-option usage in Kconfig and clang"), in case of cross-compiling
with Clang, the target triple is correctly passed to Kconfig.
The case with biarch GCC (and native build with Clang) is still not
handled properly. We need to pass some flags to specify the target
machine bit.
Due to the design, all the macros in Kconfig are expanded in the
parse stage, where we do not know the target bit size yet.
For example, arch/x86/Kconfig allows a user to toggle CONFIG_64BIT.
If a compiler flag -foo depends on the machine bit, it must be tested
twice, one with -m32 and the other with -m64.
However, -m32/-m64 are not always recognized. So, this commits adds
m64-flag and m32-flag macros. They expand to -m32, -m64, respectively
if supported. Or, they expand to an empty string if unsupported.
The typical usage is like this:
config FOO
bool
default $(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -foo) if 64BIT
default $(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -foo)
This is clumsy, but there is no elegant way to handle this in the
current static macro expansion.
There was discussion for static functions vs dynamic functions.
The consensus was to go as far as possible with the static functions.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is enabled, the two kallsyms linking steps spend
time collecting and writing the dwarf sections to the temporary output
files. kallsyms does not need this information, and leaving it off
halves their linking time. This is especially noticeable without
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED. The BTF linking stage, however, does still
need those details.
Refactor the BTF and kallsyms generation stages slightly for more
regularized temporary names. Skip debug during kallsyms links.
Additionally move "info BTF" to the correct place since commit
8959e39272 ("kbuild: Parameterize kallsyms generation and correct
reporting"), which added "info LD ..." to vmlinux_link calls.
For a full debug info build with BTF, my link time goes from 1m06s to
0m54s, saving about 12 seconds, or 18%.

When doing a cold build, autoksyms.h starts empty, and is updated late
in the build process to have visibility over the symbols used by in-tree
drivers. But since the symbol whitelist is known upfront, it can be used
to pre-populate autoksyms.h and maximize the amount of code that can be
compiled to its final state in a single pass, hence reducing build time.
Do this by using gen_autoksyms.sh to initialize autoksyms.h instead of
creating an empty file.

CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS currently removes all unused exported symbols
from ksymtab. This works really well when using in-tree drivers, but
cannot be used in its current form if some of them are out-of-tree.
Indeed, even if the list of symbols required by out-of-tree drivers is
known at compile time, the only solution today to guarantee these don't
get trimmed is to set CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=n. This not only wastes
space, but also makes it difficult to control the ABI usable by vendor
modules in distribution kernels such as Android. Being able to control
the kernel ABI surface is particularly useful to ship a unique Generic
Kernel Image (GKI) for all vendors, which is a first step in the
direction of getting all vendors to contribute their code upstream.
As such, attempt to improve the situation by enabling users to specify a
symbol 'whitelist' at compile time. Any symbol specified in this
whitelist will be kept exported when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is set,
even if it has no in-tree user. The whitelist is defined as a simple
text file, listing symbols, one per line.

Most of the Kconfig commands (except defconfig and all*config) read
the .config file as a base set of CONFIG options.
When it does not exist, the files in DEFCONFIG_LIST are searched in
this order and loaded if found.
I do not see much sense in the last two lines in DEFCONFIG_LIST.
[1] ARCH_DEFCONFIG
The entry for DEFCONFIG_LIST is guarded by 'depends on !UML'. So, the
ARCH_DEFCONFIG definition in arch/x86/um/Kconfig is meaningless.
arch/{sh,sparc,x86}/Kconfig define ARCH_DEFCONFIG depending on 32 or
64 bit variant symbols. This is a little bit strange; ARCH_DEFCONFIG
should be a fixed string because the base config file is loaded before
the symbol evaluation stage.
Using KBUILD_DEFCONFIG makes more sense because it is fixed before
Kconfig is invoked. Fortunately, arch/{sh,sparc,x86}/Makefile define it
in the same way, and it works as expected. Hence, replace ARCH_DEFCONFIG
with "arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/$(KBUILD_DEFCONFIG)".
[2] arch/$(ARCH)/defconfig
This file path is no longer valid. The defconfig files are always located
in the arch configs/ directories.
$ find arch -name defconfig | sort
arch/alpha/configs/defconfig
arch/arm64/configs/defconfig
arch/csky/configs/defconfig
arch/nds32/configs/defconfig
arch/riscv/configs/defconfig
arch/s390/configs/defconfig
arch/unicore32/configs/defconfig
The path arch/*/configs/defconfig is already covered by
"arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/$(KBUILD_DEFCONFIG)". So, this file path is
not necessary.
I moved the default KBUILD_DEFCONFIG to the top Makefile. Otherwise,
the 7 architectures listed above would end up with endless loop of
syncconfig.

With Ubuntu 16.04 (and presumably Debian distros of the same age),
the instructions for setting up a python virtual environment should
do so with the python 3 interpreter. On these older distros, the

Some of the packages that sphinx relies on are now only available

the virtualenv, you get errors when doing the pip installs for
various packages

Remove initial SIDs that have never been used or are no longer used by
the kernel from its string table, which is also used to generate the
SECINITSID_* symbols referenced in code. Update the code to
gracefully handle the fact that these can now be NULL. Stop treating
it as an error if a policy defines additional initial SIDs unknown to
the kernel. Do not load unused initial SID contexts into the sidtab.
Fix the incorrect usage of the name from the ocontext in error
messages when loading initial SIDs since these are not presently
written to the kernel policy and are therefore always NULL.
After this change, it is possible to safely reclaim and reuse some of
the unused initial SIDs without compatibility issues. Specifically,
unused initial SIDs that were being assigned the same context as the
unlabeled initial SID in policies can be reclaimed and reused for
another purpose, with existing policies still treating them as having
the unlabeled context and future policies having the option of mapping
them to a more specific context. For example, this could have been
used when the infiniband labeling support was introduced to define
initial SIDs for the default pkey and endport SIDs similar to the
handling of port/netif/node SIDs rather than always using
SECINITSID_UNLABELED as the default.
The set of safely reclaimable unused initial SIDs across all known
policies is igmp_packet (13), icmp_socket (14), tcp_socket (15), kmod
(24), policy (25), and scmp_packet (26); these initial SIDs were
assigned the same context as unlabeled in all known policies including
mls. If only considering non-mls policies (i.e. assuming that mls
users always upgrade policy with their kernels), the set of safely
reclaimable unused initial SIDs further includes file_labels (6), init
(7), sysctl_modprobe (16), and sysctl_fs (18) through sysctl_dev (23).
Adding new initial SIDs beyond SECINITSID_NUM to policy unfortunately
became a fatal error in commit 24ed7fdae6 ("selinux: use separate
table for initial SID lookup") and even before that it could cause
problems on a policy reload (collision between the new initial SID and
one allocated at runtime) ever since commit 42596eafdd ("selinux:
load the initial SIDs upon every policy load") so we cannot safely
start adding new initial SIDs to policies beyond SECINITSID_NUM (27)
until such a time as all such kernels do not need to be supported and
only those that include this commit are relevant. That is not a big
deal since we haven't added a new initial SID since 2004 (v2.6.7) and
we have plenty of unused ones we can reclaim if we truly need one.
If we want to avoid the wasted storage in initial_sid_to_string[]
and/or sidtab->isids[] for the unused initial SIDs, we could introduce
an indirection between the kernel initial SID values and the policy
initial SID values and just map the policy SID values in the ocontexts
to the kernel values during policy_load_isids(). Originally I thought
we'd do this by preserving the initial SID names in the kernel policy
and creating a mapping at load time like we do for the security
classes and permissions but that would require a new kernel policy
format version and associated changes to libsepol/checkpolicy and I'm
not sure it is justified. Simpler approach is just to create a fixed
mapping table in the kernel from the existing fixed policy values to
the kernel values. Less flexible but probably sufficient.
A separate selinux userspace change was applied in
8677ce5e8f
to enable removal of most of the unused initial SID contexts from
policies, but there is no dependency between that change and this one.
That change permits removing all of the unused initial SID contexts
from policy except for the fs and sysctl SID contexts. The initial
SID declarations themselves would remain in policy to preserve the
values of subsequent ones but the contexts can be dropped. If/when
the kernel decides to reuse one of them, future policies can change
the name and start assigning a context again without breaking
compatibility.
Here is how I would envision staging changes to the initial SIDs in a
compatible manner after this commit is applied:
1. At any time after this commit is applied, the kernel could choose
to reclaim one of the safely reclaimable unused initial SIDs listed
above for a new purpose (i.e. replace its NULL entry in the
initial_sid_to_string[] table with a new name and start using the
newly generated SECINITSID_name symbol in code), and refpolicy could
at that time rename its declaration of that initial SID to reflect its
new purpose and start assigning it a context going
forward. Existing/old policies would map the reclaimed initial SID to
the unlabeled context, so that would be the initial default behavior
until policies are updated. This doesn't depend on the selinux
userspace change; it will work with existing policies and userspace.
2. In 6 months or so we'll have another SELinux userspace release that
will include the libsepol/checkpolicy support for omitting unused
initial SID contexts.
3. At any time after that release, refpolicy can make that release its
minimum build requirement and drop the sid context statements (but not
the sid declarations) for all of the unused initial SIDs except for
fs and sysctl, which must remain for compatibility on policy
reload with old kernels and for compatibility with kernels that were
still using SECINITSID_SYSCTL (< 2.6.39). This doesn't depend on this
kernel commit; it will work with previous kernels as well.
4. After N years for some value of N, refpolicy decides that it no
longer cares about policy reload compatibility for kernels that
predate this kernel commit, and refpolicy drops the fs and sysctl
SID contexts from policy too (but retains the declarations).
5. After M years for some value of M, the kernel decides that it no
longer cares about compatibility with refpolicies that predate step 4
(dropping the fs and sysctl SIDs), and those two SIDs also become
safely reclaimable. This step is optional and need not ever occur unless
we decide that the need to reclaim those two SIDs outweighs the
compatibility cost.
6. After O years for some value of O, refpolicy decides that it no
longer cares about policy load (not just reload) compatibility for
kernels that predate this kernel commit, and both kernel and refpolicy
can then start adding and using new initial SIDs beyond 27. This does
not depend on the previous change (step 5) and can occur independent
of it.

This if_change_rule is not working properly; it cannot detect any
command line change.
The reason is because cmd-check in scripts/Kbuild.include compares
$(cmd_$@) and $(cmd_$1), but cmd_dtc_dt_yaml does not exist here.
For if_change_rule to work properly, the stem part of cmd_* and rule_*
must match. Because this cmd_and_fixdep invokes cmd_dtc, this rule must
be named rule_dtc.

There are some issues at the script with regards to :doc:
tags:
- It doesn't escape files under Documentation/sphinx,
leading to false positives;
- It doesn't handle root URLs, like :doc:`/x86/boot`;
- It doesn't output the file with a bad reference.
Address those things, in order to remove false positives

Recently, I found that get_maintainer was causing me to send emails to
the old addresses for maintainers. Since I usually just trust the
output of get_maintainer to know the right email address, I didn't even
look carefully and fired off two patch series that went to the wrong
place. Oops.
The problem was introduced recently when trying to add signatures from
Fixes. The problem was that these email addresses were added too early
in the process of compiling our list of places to send. Things added to
the list earlier are considered more canonical and when we later added
maintainer entries we ended up deduplicating to the old address.
Here are two examples using mainline commits (to make it easier to
replicate) for the two maintainers that I messed up recently:
$ git format-patch d8549bcd0529~..d8549bcd0529
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-clk-Add-clk_hw*.patch | grep Boyd
Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>...
$ git format-patch 6d1238aa3395~..6d1238aa3395
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-arm64-dts-qcom-qcs404*.patch | grep Andy
Andy Gross <andy.gross@linaro.org>
Let's move the adding of addresses from Fixes: to the end since the
email addresses from these are much more likely to be older.
After this patch the above examples get the right addresses for the two
examples.

Since commit 56d5893615 ("kbuild: do not create orphan built-in.a or
obj-y objects"), scripts/link-vmlinux.sh does nothing when descending
into init/.
Once the version number becomes out of sync between .version and
include/generated/compile.h, it is not self-healing.
[How to reproduce]
$ echo 100 > .version
$ make
You will see the number in the .version is always bigger than that in
compile.h by one. After this, every time you run 'make', the vmlinux is
re-linked even when none of source files is updated.

The symbol table is extended every 10000 addition by using realloc(),
where data copy might occur to the new buffer.
To decrease the amount of possible data copy, let's change the table

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.
It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.
This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs
So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)
I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.
The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

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.

Included in here are:
- dummy_con cleanups (touches lots of arch code)
- sysrq logic cleanups (touches lots of serial drivers)
- samsung driver fixes (wasn't really being built)
- conmakeshash move to tty subdir out of scripts
- lots of small tty/serial driver updates
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

scripts/find-unused-docs.sh invokes scripts/kernel-doc to find out if a
source file contains kerneldoc or not.
However, as it passes the no longer supported "-text" option to
scripts/kernel-doc, the latter prints out its help text, causing all
files to be considered containing kerneldoc.
Get rid of these false positives by removing the no longer supported
"-text" option from the scripts/kernel-doc invocation.

The only scary looking one from the diffstat is the uapi change to

When trying to compile with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF enabled, I got this
error:
% make -s
Failed to generate BTF for vmlinux

Compiling again without -s shows the true error (that pahole is
missing), but since this is fatal, we should show the error
unconditionally on stderr as well, not silence it using the `info`
function. With this patch:
% make -s

Currently, -E (stop after the preprocessing stage) is used to check
whether the given compiler flag is supported.
While it is faster than -S (or -c), it can be false-positive. You need
to run the compilation proper to check the flag more precisely.
For example, -E and -S disagree about the support of
"--param asan-instrument-allocas=1".
$ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -E -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
$ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -S -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null
cc1: error: invalid --param name ‘asan-instrument-allocas’; did you mean ‘asan-instrument-writes’?
$ echo $?
