commit 9f3f1fd299768782465cb32cdf0dd4528d11f26b upstream.
cc-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS when it determines
whether an option is supported or not. This is fine for options used to
build the kernel itself, however some components like the x86 boot code
use a different set of flags.
Add the new macro __cc-option which is a more generic version of
cc-option with additional parameters. One parameter is the compiler
with which the check should be performed, the other the compiler options
to be used instead KBUILD_C*FLAGS.
Refactor cc-option and hostcc-option to use __cc-option and move
hostcc-option to scripts/Kbuild.include.

commit 86a9df597cdd564d2d29c65897bcad42519e3678 upstream.
I was not seeing my linker flags getting added when using ld-option when
cross compiling with Clang. Upon investigation, this seems to be due to
a difference in how GCC vs Clang handle cross compilation.
GCC is configured at build time to support one backend, that is implicit
when compiling. Clang is explicit via the use of `-target <triple>` and
ships with all supported backends by default.
GNU Make feature test macros that compile then link will always fail
when cross compiling with Clang unless Clang's triple is passed along to
the compiler. For example:
$ clang -x c /dev/null -c -o temp.o
$ aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld -E temp.o
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
unknown architecture of input file `temp.o' is incompatible with
aarch64 output
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to
0000000000400078
$ echo $?
1
$ clang -target aarch64-linux-android- -x c /dev/null -c -o temp.o
$ aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld -E temp.o
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 00000000004002e4
$ echo $?
0
This causes conditional checks that invoke $(CC) without the target
triple, then $(LD) on the result, to always fail.

expressions to support old gas for x86.
[2] Commit a22dcdb003 ("x86, asm: Fix ancient-GAS workaround")
split the pattern into two to avoid parentheses for non-numeric
expressions.
[3] Commit 95a2f6f72d ("Partially revert patch that encloses
asm-offset.h numbers in brackets") removed parentheses from numeric
expressions as well because parentheses in MN10300 assembly have a
special meaning (pointer access).
Apparently, there is a conflict between [1] and [3]. After all,
[3] took precedence, and a long time has passed since then.
Now, merge the two patterns again because the first one is covered

[ Upstream commit 9c2af1c7377a8a6ef86e5cabf80978f3dbbb25c0 ]
If Make gets a fatal signal while a shell is executing, it may delete
the target file that the recipe was supposed to update. This is needed
to make sure that it is remade from scratch when Make is next run; if
Make is interrupted after the recipe has begun to write the target file,
it results in an incomplete file whose time stamp is newer than that
of the prerequisites files. Make automatically deletes the incomplete
file on interrupt unless the target is marked .PRECIOUS.
The situation is just the same as when the shell fails for some reasons.
Usually when a recipe line fails, if it has changed the target file at
all, the file is corrupted, or at least it is not completely updated.
Yet the file’s time stamp says that it is now up to date, so the next
time Make runs, it will not try to update that file.
However, Make does not cater to delete the incomplete target file in
this case. We need to add .DELETE_ON_ERROR somewhere in the Makefile
to request it.
scripts/Kbuild.include seems a suitable place to add it because it is
included from almost all sub-makes.
Please note .DELETE_ON_ERROR is not effective for phony targets.
The external module building should never ever touch the kernel tree.
The following recipe fails if include/generated/autoconf.h is missing.
However, include/config/auto.conf is not deleted since it is a phony
target.
PHONY += include/config/auto.conf
include/config/auto.conf:
$(Q)test -e include/generated/autoconf.h -a -e $@ || ( \
echo >&2; \

I.e., "make modules_install" may be used to copy/install the

then transferred to an embedded device where /sbin/depmod is run
instead of it being run on the build system.

commit 0e410e158e5baa1300bdf678cea4f4e0cf9d8b94 upstream.
With KASAN enabled the kernel has two different memset() functions, one
with KASAN checks (memset) and one without (__memset). KASAN uses some
macro tricks to use the proper version where required. For example
memset() calls in mm/slub.c are without KASAN checks, since they operate
on poisoned slab object metadata.
The issue is that clang emits memset() calls even when there is no
memset() in the source code. They get linked with improper memset()
implementation and the kernel fails to boot due to a huge amount of KASAN
reports during early boot stages.
The solution is to add -fno-builtin flag for files with KASAN_SANITIZE :=
n marker.

commit 9564a8cf422d7b58f6e857e3546d346fa970191e upstream.
I tried building using a freshly built Make (4.2.1-69-g8a731d1), but
already the objtool build broke with
orc_dump.c: In function ‘orc_dump’:
orc_dump.c:106:2: error: ‘elf_getshnum’ is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) {
Turns out that with that new Make, the backslash was not removed, so cpp
didn't see a #include directive, grep found nothing, and
-DLIBELF_USE_DEPRECATED was wrongly put in CFLAGS.
Now, that new Make behaviour is documented in their NEWS file:
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
thus a call such as:
foo := $(shell echo '#')
is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
foo := $(shell echo '\#')
Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles
portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
C := \#
foo := $(shell echo '$C')
This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
This also fixes up the two make-cmd instances to replace # with $(pound)
rather than with \#. There might very well be other places that need
similar fixup in preparation for whatever future Make release contains
the above change, but at least this builds an x86_64 defconfig with the
new make.

commit 55fe6da9efba102866e2fb5b40b04b6a4b26c19e upstream.
cmd_dt_S_dtb constructs the assembly source to incorporate a devicetree
FDT (that is, the .dtb file) as binary data in the kernel image. This
assembly source contains labels before and after the binary data. The
label names incorporate the file name of the corresponding .dtb file.
Hyphens are not legal characters in labels, so .dtb files built into the
kernel with hyphens in the file name result in errors like the
following:
bcm3368-netgear-cvg834g.dtb.S: Assembler messages:
bcm3368-netgear-cvg834g.dtb.S:5: Error: : no such section
bcm3368-netgear-cvg834g.dtb.S:5: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `-'

bcm3368-netgear-cvg834g.dtb.S:9: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `-'
Fix this by updating cmd_dt_S_dtb to transform all hyphens from the file
name to underscores when constructing the labels.
As of v4.16-rc2, 1139 .dts files across ARM64, ARM, MIPS and PowerPC
contain hyphens in their names, but the issue only currently manifests
on Broadcom MIPS platforms, as that is the only place where such files
are built into the kernel. For example when CONFIG_DT_NETGEAR_CVG834G=y,
or on BMIPS kernels when the dtbs target is used (in the latter case it
admittedly shouldn't really build all the dtb.o files, but thats a
separate issue).

(cherry picked from commit caf7501a1b4ec964190f31f9c3f163de252273b8)
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.

compile 4.15-rc1 with the builds failing with things like:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.c:2078: error: Cannot parse struct or union!
The line in question is actually just a #define, but after some digging
it turns out that my scripts pass W=1 and since commit 3a025e1d1c2ea
("Add optional check for bad kernel-doc comments") that results in
kernel-doc running on each source file. The file in question has a
badly formatted comment immediately before the #define:
/**
* struct brcmf_skbuff_cb reserves first two bytes in sk_buff::cb for
* bus layer usage.
*/
which causes the regex in dump_struct to fail (lack of braces following
struct declaration) and kernel-doc returns 1, which causes the build
to fail.
Fix the issue by always returning 0 from kernel-doc when invoked with
-none. It successfully generates no documentation, and prints out any
issues.

commit c153693d7eb9eeb28478aa2deaaf0b4e7b5ff5e9 upstream.
PowerPC64 uses the symbol .TOC. much as other targets use
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. It identifies the value of the GOT pointer (or in
powerpc parlance, the TOC pointer). Global offset tables are generally
local to an executable or shared library, or in the kernel, module. Thus
it does not make sense for a module to resolve a relocation against
.TOC. to the kernel's .TOC. value. A module has its own .TOC., and
indeed the powerpc64 module relocation processing ignores the kernel
value of .TOC. and instead calculates a module-local value.
This patch removes code involved in exporting the kernel .TOC., tweaks
modpost to ignore an undefined .TOC., and the module loader to twiddle
the section symbol so that .TOC. isn't seen as undefined.
Note that if the kernel was compiled with -msingle-pic-base then ELFv2
would not have function global entry code setting up r2. In that case
the module call stubs would need to be modified to set up r2 using the
kernel .TOC. value, requiring some of this code to be reinstated.
mpe: Furthermore a change in binutils master (not yet released) causes
the current way we handle the TOC to no longer work when building with
MODVERSIONS=y and RELOCATABLE=n. The symptom is that modules can not be
loaded due to there being no version found for TOC.

[ Upstream commit 2dbc644ac62bbcb9ee78e84719953f611be0413d ]
For rpm-pkg and deb-pkg, a source tar file is created. All paths in
the archive must be prefixed with the base name of the tar so that
everything is contained in the directory when you extract it.
Currently, scripts/package/Makefile uses a symlink for that, and
removes it after the tar is created.
If you terminate the build during the tar creation, the symlink is
left over. Then, at the next package build, you will see a warning
like follows:
ln: '.' and 'kernel-4.14.0+/.' are the same file
It is possible to fix it by adding -n (--no-dereference) option to
the "ln" command, but a cleaner way is to use --transform option
of "tar" command. This option is GNU extension, but it should not
hurt to use it in the Linux build system.
The 'S' flag is needed to exclude symlinks from the path fixup.
Without it, symlinks in the kernel are broken.

[ Upstream commit ab42632156becd35d3884ee5c14da2bedbf3149a ]
For powerpc the __jump_table section in modules is not aligned, this
causes a WARN_ON() splat when loading a module containing a __jump_table.
Strict alignment became necessary with commit 3821fd35b58d
("jump_label: Reduce the size of struct static_key"), currently in
linux-next, which uses the two least significant bits of pointers to
__jump_table elements.
Fix by forcing __jump_table to 8, which is the same alignment used for
this section in the kernel proper.

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().

Huge amounts of help from Andy Lutomirski and Borislav Petkov to
produce this. Andy provided the inspiration to add classes to the
exception table with a clever bit-squeezing trick, Boris pointed
out how much cleaner it would all be if we just had a new field.
Linus Torvalds blessed the expansion with:
' I'd rather not be clever in order to save just a tiny amount of space
in the exception table, which isn't really criticial for anybody. '
The third field is another relative function pointer, this one to a
handler that executes the actions.
We start out with three handlers:
1: Legacy - just jumps the to fixup IP
2: Fault - provide the trap number in %ax to the fixup code
3: Cleaned up legacy for the uaccess error hack

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

This is because -lrt appears in the generated link commandline
after arch/um/os-Linux/built-in.o. Fix this by removing -lrt from

hash by an array') broke compatibility of the kernel-doc script with
older versions of perl by using "keys ARRAY" syntax with is available
only on Perl 5.12 or newer, according with:
http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/keys.html
Restore backward compatibility by replacing "foreach my $k (keys ARRAY)"
by a C-like variant: "for (my $k = 0; $k < !ARRAY; $k++)"
