kbuild/mkspec: fix grub2 installkernel issue

2016-04-12T14:33:42+00:00

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.

scripts/kconfig: allow building with make 3.80 again

commit 42f9d3c6888bceef6dc7ba72c77acf47347dcf05 upstream.

Documentation/Changes still lists this as the minimal required version,
so it ought to remain usable for the time being.

ld-version: Fix awk regex compile failure

2016-03-13T09:54:42+00:00

The ld-version.sh script fails on some versions of awk with the
following error, resulting in build failures for MIPS:

awk: scripts/ld-version.sh: line 4: regular expression compile failed (missing '(')

This is due to the regular expression ".*)", meant to strip off the
beginning of the ld version string up to the close bracket, however
brackets have a meaning in regular expressions, so lets escape it so
that awk doesn't expect a corresponding open bracket.

scripts: add "prune-kernel" script to clean up old kernel images

2016-02-09T18:09:52+00:00

Long ago, Dave Jones complained about CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO:
 "I don't use the auto config, because I end up filling up /boot unless
  I go through and clean them out by hand every time I install a new one
  (which I do probably a dozen or so times a day).  Is there some easy
  way to prune old builds I'm missing?"

To which Bruce replied:
 "I run this by hand every now and then.  I'm probably doing it all wrong"

And if he is running it wrong, then so am I - because I've been using
this script ever since.  It is true that CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO easily
ends up filling your /boot partition if you don't clean up old versions
regularly, and this script helps make that easier.

Checked with Bruce to see that it's fine to add this to the kernel
scripts.  Maybe people will come up with enhancements, but more
importantly, this way I won't misplace this script whenever I install a
new machine and start doing custom kernels for it.

powerpc: Simplify module TOC handling

2016-01-21T03:10:56+00:00

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.

UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checker

2016-01-21T01:09:18+00:00

UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior
(UB).  Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before
operations that could cause UB.  If check fails (i.e.  UB detected)
__ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message.

So the most of the work is done by compiler.  This patch just implements
ubsan handlers printing errors.

GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined
option and its suboptions).
However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2].
Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

[2] - https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Debugging-Options.html
[3] - http://developerblog.redhat.com/2014/10/16/gcc-undefined-behavior-sanitizer-ubsan/

Issues which UBSAN has found thus far are:

 * out-of-bounds access - 97840cb67ff5 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: fix
   insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind")

undefined shifts:

checkpatch: fix a number of COMPLEX_MACRO false positives

2016-01-21T01:09:18+00:00

A simple search over the kernel souce displays a number of correctly
defined multiline macro, which generally are used as an array element
initializer:

% find ../linux -type f | xargs grep -B1 -H '^[:space]*\[.*\\$'

However checkpatch.pl unexpectedly complains about all these macro
definitions:

% ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --types COMPLEX_MACRO -f include/linux/perf/arm_pmu.h

ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses
+#define PERF_MAP_ALL_UNSUPPORTED					\
+	 [0 ... PERF_COUNT_HW_MAX - 1] = HW_OP_UNSUPPORTED

The change intends to fix this type of false positives by flattening
only array members and skipping array element designators.
