commit 7ae4ba7195 upstream.
The instructions for the ftrace-bisect.sh script, which is used to find
what function is being traced that is causing a kernel crash, and possibly
a triple fault reboot, uses the old method. In 5.1, a new feature was
added that let the user write in the index into available_filter_functions
that maps to the function a user wants to set in set_ftrace_filter (or
set_ftrace_notrace). This takes O(1) to set, as suppose to writing a
function name, which takes O(n) (where n is the number of functions in
available_filter_functions).
The ftrace-bisect.sh requires setting half of the functions in
available_filter_functions, which is O(n^2) using the name method to enable
and can take several minutes to complete. The number method is O(n) which
takes less than a second to complete. Using the number method for any
kernel 5.1 and after is the proper way to do the bisect.
Update the usage to reflect the new change, as well as using the
/sys/kernel/tracing path instead of the obsolete debugfs path.

Commit 1d1a0e7c51 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section
failures") can cause faddr2line to fail on ppc64le on some
distributions, while it works fine on other distributions. The failure
can be attributed to differences in the readelf output.
$ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux find_busiest_group+0x00
no match for find_busiest_group+0x00
On ppc64le, readelf adds the localentry tag before the symbol name on
some distributions, and adds the localentry tag after the symbol name on
other distributions. This problem has been discussed previously:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20191211160133.GB4580@calabresa/
This problem can be overcome by filtering out the localentry tags in the
readelf output. Similar fixes are already present in the kernel by way
of the following commits:

[ Upstream commit a7f3257da8 ]
When receiving some signal, GNU Make automatically deletes the target if
it has already been changed by the interrupted recipe.
If the target is possibly incomplete due to interruption, it must be
deleted so that it will be remade from scratch on the next run of make.
Otherwise, the target would remain corrupted permanently because its
timestamp had already been updated.
Thanks to this behavior of Make, you can stop the build any time by
pressing Ctrl-C, and just run 'make' to resume it.
Kbuild also relies on this feature, but it is equivalently important
for any build systems that make decisions based on timestamps (if you
want to support Ctrl-C reliably).
However, this does not always work as claimed; Make immediately dies
with Ctrl-C if its stderr goes into a pipe.
[Test Makefile]
foo:
echo hello > $@
sleep 3
echo world >> $@
[Test Result]
$ make # hit Ctrl-C
echo hello > foo
sleep 3
^Cmake: *** Deleting file 'foo'
make: *** [Makefile:3: foo] Interrupt
$ make 2>&1 | cat # hit Ctrl-C
echo hello > foo
sleep 3
^C$ # 'foo' is often left-over
The reason is because SIGINT is sent to the entire process group.
In this example, SIGINT kills 'cat', and 'make' writes the message to
the closed pipe, then dies with SIGPIPE before cleaning the target.
A typical bad scenario (as reported by [1], [2]) is to save build log
by using the 'tee' command:
$ make 2>&1 | tee log
This can be problematic for any build systems based on Make, so I hope
it will be fixed in GNU Make. The maintainer of GNU Make stated this is
a long-standing issue and difficult to fix [3]. It has not been fixed
yet as of writing.
So, we cannot rely on Make cleaning the target. We can do it by
ourselves, in signal traps.
As far as I understand, Make takes care of SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGQUIT, and
SITERM for the target removal. I added the traps for them, and also for
SIGPIPE just in case cmd_* rule prints something to stdout or stderr
(but I did not observe an actual case where SIGPIPE was triggered).
[Note 1]
The trap handler might be worth explaining.
rm -f $@; trap - $(sig); kill -s $(sig) $$
This lets the shell kill itself by the signal it caught, so the parent
process can tell the child has exited on the signal. Generally, this is
a proper manner for handling signals, in case the calling program (like
Bash) may monitor WIFSIGNALED() and WTERMSIG() for WCE although this may
not be a big deal here because GNU Make handles SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGQUIT
in WUE and SIGTERM in IUE.
IUE - Immediate Unconditional Exit
WUE - Wait and Unconditional Exit
WCE - Wait and Cooperative Exit
For details, see "Proper handling of SIGINT/SIGQUIT" [4].
[Note 2]
Reverting 392885ee82 ("kbuild: let fixdep directly write to .*.cmd
files") would directly address [1], but it only saves if_changed_dep.
As reported in [2], all commands that use redirection can potentially
leave an empty (i.e. broken) target.
[Note 3]
Another (even safer) approach might be to always write to a temporary
file, and rename it to $@ at the end of the recipe.
<command> > $(tmp-target)
mv $(tmp-target) $@
It would require a lot of Makefile changes, and result in ugly code,
so I did not take it.
[Note 4]
A little more thoughts about a pattern rule with multiple targets (or
a grouped target).
%.x %.y: %.z
<recipe>
When interrupted, GNU Make deletes both %.x and %.y, while this solution
only deletes $@. Probably, this is not a big deal. The next run of make
will execute the rule again to create $@ along with the other files.

commit 23a0cb8e32 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.

include random.h, which conditionally defines add_latent_entropy()
depending on whether the macro LATENT_ENTROPY_PLUGIN is defined.
This broke the build on powerpc, where nodemask.h is indirectly included
in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c, part of the early boot machinery that
is excluded from the latent entropy plugin using
DISABLE_LATENT_ENTROPY_PLUGIN. It turns out that while we add a gcc flag

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 && (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

commit c40160f299 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

LLVM commit below). On v5.17-rc2, an ARCH=arm allmodconfig build shows
1284 total/70 unique instances of this warning (most of the instances
are in header files), which is quite noisy.
To keep a normal build green through CONFIG_WERROR, only show this
warning with W=1, which will allow automated build systems to catch new
instances of the warning so that the total number can be driven down to
zero eventually since catching unaligned accesses at compile time would
be generally useful.

commit d8adf5b92a upstream.
dtx_diff suggests to use <(...) syntax to pipe two inputs into it, but
this has never worked: The /proc/self/fds/... paths passed by the shell
will fail the `[ -f "${dtx}" ] && [ -r "${dtx}" ]` check in compile_to_dts,
but even with this check removed, the function cannot work: hexdump will
eat up the DTB magic, making the subsequent dtc call fail, as a pipe
cannot be rewound.
Simply remove this broken example, as there is already an alternative one
that works fine.

commit 4eb1782eaa upstream.
Commit 85bf17b28f ("recordmcount.pl: look for jgnop instruction as well
as bcrl on s390") added a new alternative mnemonic for the existing brcl
instruction. This is required for the combination old gcc version (pre 9.0)
and binutils since version 2.37.
However at the same time this commit introduced a typo, replacing brcl with
bcrl. As a result no mcount locations are detected anymore with old gcc
versions (pre 9.0) and binutils before version 2.37.
Fix this by using the correct mnemonic again.

commit be358af119 upstream.
I received a build failure for a new patch I'm working on the nds32
architecture, and when I went to test it, I couldn't get to my build error,
because it failed to build with a bunch of:
Error: invalid operands (*UND* and *UND* sections) for `^'
issues with various files. Those files were temporary asm files that looked
like: kernel/.tmp_mc_fork.s
I decided to look deeper, and found that the "mc" portion of that name
stood for "mcount", and was created by the recordmcount.pl script. One that
I wrote over a decade ago. Once I knew the source of the problem, I was
able to investigate it further.
The way the recordmcount.pl script works (BTW, there's a C version that
simply modifies the ELF object) is by doing an "objdump" on the object
file. Looks for all the calls to "mcount", and creates an offset of those
locations from some global variable it can use (usually a global function
name, found with <.*>:). Creates a asm file that is a table of references
to these locations, using the found variable/function. Compiles it and
links it back into the original object file. This asm file is called
".tmp_mc_<object_base_name>.s".
The problem here is that the objdump produced by the nds32 object file,
contains things that look like:
0000159a <.L3^B1>:
159a: c6 00 beqz38 $r6, 159a <.L3^B1>
159a: R_NDS32_9_PCREL_RELA .text+0x159e
159c: 84 d2 movi55 $r6, #-14
159e: 80 06 mov55 $r0, $r6
15a0: ec 3c addi10.sp #0x3c
Where ".L3^B1 is somehow selected as the "global" variable to index off of.
Then the assembly file that holds the mcount locations looks like this:
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
.align 2
.long .L3^B1 + -5522
.long .L3^B1 + -5384
.long .L3^B1 + -5270
.long .L3^B1 + -5098
.long .L3^B1 + -4970
.long .L3^B1 + -4758
.long .L3^B1 + -4122
[...]
And when it is compiled back to an object to link to the original object,
the compile fails on the "^" symbol.
Simple solution for now, is to have the perl script ignore using function
symbols that have an "^" in the name.

To avoid unnecessary recompilations, mkcompile_h does not regenerate
compile.h if just the timestamp changed.
Though, if KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP is set, an explicit timestamp for the
build was requested, in which case we should not ignore it.
If a user follows the documentation for reproducible builds [1] and
defines KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP as the git commit timestamp, a clean
build will have the correct timestamp. A subsequent cherry-pick (or
amend) changes the commit timestamp and if an incremental build is done
with a different KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP now, that new value is not taken
into consideration. But it should for reproducibility.
Hence, whenever KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP is explicitly set, do not ignore
UTS_VERSION when making a decision about whether the regenerated version
of compile.h should be moved into place.

[ Upstream commit 174a1dcc96 ]
When building with 'make -s', no output to stdout should be printed.
As Arnd Bergmann reported [1], mkimage shows the detailed information
of the generated images.
I think this should be suppressed by the 'cmd' macro instead of by
individual scripts.
Insert 'exec >/dev/null;' in order to redirect stdout to /dev/null for
silent builds.
[Note about this implementation]
'exec >/dev/null;' may look somewhat tricky, but this has a reason.
Appending '>/dev/null' at the end of command line is a common way for
redirection, so I first tried this:
cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) $(cmd_$(1)) >/dev/null
... but it would not work if $(cmd_$(1)) itself contains a redirection.
For example, cmd_wrap in scripts/Makefile.asm-generic redirects the
output from the 'echo' command into the target file.
It would be expanded into:
echo "#include <asm-generic/$*.h>" > $@ >/dev/null
Then, the target file gets empty because the string will go to /dev/null
instead of $@.
Next, I tried this:
cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) { $(cmd_$(1)); } >/dev/null
The form above would be expanded into:
{ echo "#include <asm-generic/$*.h>" > $@; } >/dev/null
This works as expected. However, it would be a syntax error if
$(cmd_$(1)) is empty.
When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is disabled, $(call cmd,gen_ksymdeps) in
scripts/Makefile.build would be expanded into:
set -e; { ; } >/dev/null
..., which causes an syntax error.
I also tried this:
cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) ( $(cmd_$(1)) ) >/dev/null
... but this causes a syntax error for the same reason.
So, finally I adopted:
cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) exec >/dev/null; $(cmd_$(1))

[ Upstream commit 8852c55240 ]
"OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD_vma.o := n" has a dependency bug. When
objtool source is updated, the affected object doesn't get re-analyzed
by objtool.
Peter's new variable-sized jump label feature relies on objtool
rewriting the object file. Otherwise the system can fail to boot. That
effectively upgrades this minor dependency issue to a major bug.
The problem is that variables in prerequisites are expanded early,
during the read-in phase. The '$(objtool_dep)' variable indirectly uses
'$@', which isn't yet available when the target prerequisites are
evaluated.
Use '.SECONDEXPANSION:' which causes '$(objtool_dep)' to be expanded in
a later phase, after the target-specific '$@' variable has been defined.

[ Upstream commit 8c94b430b9 ]
If the user selects the very first entry in a page and performs a
search-up operation, or selects the very last entry in a page and
performs a search-down operation that will not succeed (e.g., via
[/]asdfzzz[Up Arrow]), nconf will never terminate searching the page.
The reason is that in this case, the starting point will be set to -1
or n, which is then translated into (n - 1) (i.e., the last entry of
the page) or 0 (i.e., the first entry of the page) and finally the
search begins. This continues to work fine until the index reaches 0 or
(n - 1), at which point it will be decremented to -1 or incremented to
n, but not checked against the starting point right away. Instead, it's
wrapped around to the bottom or top again, after which the starting
point check occurs... and naturally fails.
My original implementation added another check for -1 before wrapping
the running index variable around, but Masahiro Yamada pointed out that
the actual issue is that the comparison point (starting point) exceeds
bounds (i.e., the [0,n-1] interval) in the first place and that,
instead, the starting point should be fixed.
This has the welcome side-effect of also fixing the case where the
starting point was n while searching down, which also lead to an
infinite loop.
OTOH, this code is now essentially all his work.
Amazingly, nobody seems to have been hit by this for 11 years - or at
the very least nobody bothered to debug and fix this.

Some code pathes, especially the low level entry code, must be protected
against instrumentation for various reasons:
- Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86.
- With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it.
Having a dedicated section for such code allows to validate with tooling
that no unsafe functions are invoked.
Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark
functions. noinstr implies notrace. Kprobes will gain a section check
later.
Provide also a set of markers: instrumentation_begin()/end()
These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls
into regular instrumentable text section as safe.
The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is
enabled as the end marker emits a NOP to prevent the compiler from merging
the annotation points. This means the objtool verification requires a
kernel compiled with this option.

archive member separately, which results a lot of dupications, in some
places, beyond the system-defined limit.
This problem must be fixed irrespective of LTO, and we must ensure
zero possibility of having this issue.
