commit 8e2442a5f86e1f77b86401fce274a7f622740bc4 upstream.

Since commit 00c864f8903d ("kconfig: allow all config targets to write
auto.conf if missing"), Kconfig creates include/config/auto.conf in the
defconfig stage when it is missing.

Joonas Kylmälä reported incorrect auto.conf generation under some
circumstances.

To reproduce it, apply the following diff:

|  --- a/arch/arm/configs/imx_v6_v7_defconfig
|  +++ b/arch/arm/configs/imx_v6_v7_defconfig
|  @@ -345,14 +345,7 @@ CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_MIDI=y

|  +CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=y
|   CONFIG_MMC=y
|   CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=y
|   CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PLTFM=y

And then, run:

$ make ARCH=arm mrproper imx_v6_v7_defconfig

You will see CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=y is correctly contained in the
.config, but not in the auto.conf.

Please note drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig is included from a choice
block in drivers/usb/gadget/Kconfig. So USB_FUNCTIONFS is a choice value.

This is probably a similar situation described in commit beaaddb62540
("kconfig: tests: test defconfig when two choices interact").

When sym_calc_choice() is called, the choice symbol forgets the
SYMBOL_DEF_USER unless all of its choice values are explicitly set by
the user.

The choice symbol is given just one chance to recall it because
set_all_choice_values() is called if SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES
is set.

When sym_calc_choice() is called again, the choice symbol forgets it
forever, since SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES is a one-time aid.
Hence, we cannot call sym_clear_all_valid() again and again.

It is crazy to repeat set and unset of internal flags. However, we
cannot simply get rid of "sym-&gt;flags &amp;= flags | ~SYMBOL_DEF_USER;"
Doing so would re-introduce the problem solved by commit 5d09598d488f
("kconfig: fix new choices being skipped upon config update").

To work around the issue, conf_write_autoconf() stopped calling
sym_clear_all_valid().

conf_write() must be changed accordingly. Currently, it clears
SYMBOL_WRITE after the symbol is written into the .config file. This
is needed to prevent it from writing the same symbol multiple times in
case the symbol is declared in two or more locations. I added the new
flag SYMBOL_WRITTEN, to track the symbols that have been written.

Anyway, this is a cheesy workaround in order to suppress the issue
as far as defconfig is concerned.

Handling of choices is totally broken. sym_clear_all_valid() is called
every time a user touches a symbol from the GUI interface. To reproduce
it, just add a new symbol drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig, then touch
around unrelated symbols from menuconfig. USB_FUNCTIONFS will disappear
from the .config file.

I added the Fixes tag since it is more fatal than before. But, this
has been broken since long long time before, and still it is.
We should take a closer look to fix this correctly somehow.

[ Upstream commit c04e32e911653442fc834be6e92e072aeebe01a1 ]

At least for ARM64 kernels compiled with the crosstoolchain from
Debian/stretch or with the toolchain from kernel.org the line number is
not decoded correctly by 'decode_stacktrace.sh':

[ Upstream commit a6e0487709ded7cd1ba0c390d9771e5cb76a8453 ]

The buildtar script might want to invoke a make, so tell the parent
make to pass the jobserver token pipe to the subcommand by prefixing
the command with a +.

This addresses the issue seen here:

  /bin/sh ../scripts/package/buildtar tar-pkg
  make[3]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1.  Add '+' to parent make rule.

<title>kbuild: use more portable 'command -v' for cc-cross-prefix</title>

commit 913ab9780fc021298949cc5514d6255a008e69f9 upstream.

To print the pathname that will be used by shell in the current
environment, 'command -v' is a standardized way. [1]

'which' is also often used in scripts, but it is less portable.

When I worked on commit bd55f96fa9fc ("kbuild: refactor cc-cross-prefix
implementation"), I was eager to use 'command -v' but it did not work.
(The reason is explained below.)

I kept 'which' as before but got rid of '&gt; /dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1' as I
thought it was no longer needed. Sorry, I was wrong.

It works well on my Ubuntu machine, but Alexey Brodkin reports noisy
warnings on CentOS7 when 'which' fails to find the given command in
the PATH environment.

  $ which foo
  which: no foo in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin)

Given that behavior of 'which' depends on system (and it may not be
installed by default), I want to try 'command -v' once again.

The specification [1] clearly describes the behavior of 'command -v'
when the given command is not found:

  Otherwise, no output shall be written and the exit status shall reflect
  that the name was not found.

However, we need a little magic to use 'command -v' from Make.

$(shell ...) passes the argument to a subshell for execution, and
returns the standard output of the command.

Here is a trick. GNU Make may optimize this by executing the command
directly instead of forking a subshell, if no shell special characters
are found in the command and omitting the subshell will not change the
behavior.

In this case, no shell special character is used. So, Make will try
to run it directly. However, 'command' is a shell-builtin command,
then Make would fail to find it in the PATH environment:

  $ make ARCH=m68k defconfig
  make: command: Command not found
  make: command: Command not found
  make: command: Command not found

In fact, Make has a table of shell-builtin commands because it must
ask the shell to execute them.

Until recently, 'command' was missing in the table.

This issue was fixed by the following commit:

| commit 1af314465e5dfe3e8baa839a32a72e83c04f26ef
| Author: Paul Smith &lt;psmith@gnu.org&gt;
| Date:   Sun Nov 12 18:10:28 2017 -0500
|
|     * job.c: Add "command" as a known shell built-in.
|
|     This is not a POSIX shell built-in but it's common in UNIX shells.
|     Reported by Nick Bowler &lt;nbowler@draconx.ca&gt;.

Because the latest release is GNU Make 4.2.1 in 2016, this commit is
not included in any released versions. (But some distributions may
have back-ported it.)

We need to trick Make to spawn a subshell. There are various ways to
do so:

 1) Use a shell special character '~' as dummy

    $(shell : ~; command -v $(c)gcc)

 2) Use a variable reference that always expands to the empty string
    (suggested by David Laight)

    $(shell command$${x:+} -v $(c)gcc)

 3) Use redirect

    $(shell command -v $(c)gcc 2&gt;/dev/null)

I chose 3) to not confuse people. The stderr would not be polluted
anyway, but it will provide extra safety, and is easy to understand.

Tested on Make 3.81, 3.82, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.2.1

|     * job.c: Add "command" as a known shell built-in.
|
|     This is not a POSIX shell built-in but it's common in UNIX shells.
|     Reported by Nick Bowler &lt;nbowler@draconx.ca&gt;.

Because the latest release is GNU Make 4.2.1 in 2016, this commit is
not included in any released versions. (But some distributions may
have back-ported it.)

We need to trick Make to spawn a subshell. There are various ways to
do so:

 1) Use a shell special character '~' as dummy

    $(shell : ~; command -v $(c)gcc)

 2) Use a variable reference that always expands to the empty string
    (suggested by David Laight)

    $(shell command$${x:+} -v $(c)gcc)

 3) Use redirect

    $(shell command -v $(c)gcc 2&gt;/dev/null)

I chose 3) to not confuse people. The stderr would not be polluted
anyway, but it will provide extra safety, and is easy to understand.

Tested on Make 3.81, 3.82, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.2.1

commit 7210e060155b9cf557fb13128353c3e494fa5ed3 upstream.

The gcc-common.h file did not take into account certain macros that
might have already been defined in the build environment. This updates
the header to avoid redefining the macros, as seen on a Darwin host
using gcc 4.9.2:

commit 259799ea5a9aa099a267f3b99e1f7078bbaf5c5e upstream.

Use gen_rtx_set instead of gen_rtx_SET. The former is a wrapper macro
that handles the difference between GCC versions implementing
the latter.

This fixes the following error on my system with g++ 5.4.0 as the host
compiler

   HOSTCXX -fPIC scripts/gcc-plugins/arm_ssp_per_task_plugin.o
 scripts/gcc-plugins/arm_ssp_per_task_plugin.c:42:14: error: macro "gen_rtx_SET" requires 3 arguments, but only 2 given

Pull selinux fix from Paul Moore:
 "One small patch for the stable folks to fix a problem when building
  against the latest glibc.

  I'll be honest and say that I'm not really thrilled with the idea of
  sending this up right now, but Greg is a little annoyed so here I
  figured I would at least send this"

When compiling genheaders and mdp from a newer host kernel, the
following error happens:

Instead of relying on the host definition, include linux/socket.h in
classmap.h to have PF_MAX.
