commit 55c78035a1a8dfb05f1472018ce2a651701adb7d upstream.

Similar to GCOV, KCOV can leave behind dead code and undefined behavior.
Warnings related to those should be ignored.

The previous commit:

  6b023c784204 ("objtool: Silence more KCOV warnings")

... only did so for CONFIG_CGOV_KERNEL.  Also do it for CONFIG_KCOV, but
for real this time.

Fixes the following warning:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: synaptics_report_mt_data: unexpected end of section .text.synaptics_report_mt_data

commit 558bdc45dfb2669e1741384a0c80be9c82fa052c upstream.

ENGINE API has been deprecated since OpenSSL version 3.0 [1].
Distros have started dropping support from headers and in future
it will likely disappear also from library.

It has been superseded by the PROVIDER API, so use it instead
for OPENSSL MAJOR &gt;= 3.

ERR_get_error_line() is deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0.

Use ERR_peek_error_line() instead, and combine display_openssl_errors()
and drain_openssl_errors() to a single function where parameter decides
if it should consume errors silently.

[ Upstream commit 6ae0042f4d3f331e841495eb0a3d51598e593ec2 ]

Subshell evaluations are not exempt from errexit, so if a command is
not available, `which` will fail and exit the script as a whole.
This causes the helpful error messages to not be printed if they are
tacked on using a `$?` comparison.

Resolve the issue by using chains of logical operators, which are not
subject to the effects of errexit.

[ Upstream commit 2e0f91aba507a3cb59f7a12fc3ea2b7d4d6675b7 ]

The macros crate has depended on std and proc_macro since its
introduction in commit 1fbde52bde73 ("rust: add `macros` crate"). These
dependencies were omitted from commit 8c4555ccc55c ("scripts: add
`generate_rust_analyzer.py`") resulting in missing go-to-definition and
autocomplete, and false-positive warnings emitted from rust-analyzer
such as:

  [{
  	"resource": "/Users/tamird/src/linux/rust/macros/module.rs",
  	"owner": "_generated_diagnostic_collection_name_#1",
  	"code": {
  		"value": "non_snake_case",
  		"target": {
  			"$mid": 1,
  			"path": "/rustc/",
  			"scheme": "https",
  			"authority": "doc.rust-lang.org",
  			"query": "search=non_snake_case"
  		}
  	},
  	"severity": 4,
  	"message": "Variable `None` should have snake_case name, e.g. `none`",

  	"startLineNumber": 123,
  	"startColumn": 17,
  	"endLineNumber": 123,

Add the missing dependencies to improve the developer experience.

<title>kbuild: Move -Wenum-enum-conversion to W=2</title>

commit 8f6629c004b193d23612641c3607e785819e97ab upstream.

-Wenum-enum-conversion was strengthened in clang-19 to warn for C, which
caused the kernel to move it to W=1 in commit 75b5ab134bb5 ("kbuild:
Move -Wenum-{compare-conditional,enum-conversion} into W=1") because
there were numerous instances that would break builds with -Werror.
Unfortunately, this is not a full solution, as more and more developers,
subsystems, and distributors are building with W=1 as well, so they
continue to see the numerous instances of this warning.

Since the move to W=1, there have not been many new instances that have
appeared through various build reports and the ones that have appeared
seem to be following similar existing patterns, suggesting that most
instances of this warning will not be real issues. The only alternatives
for silencing this warning are adding casts (which is generally seen as
an ugly practice) or refactoring the enums to macro defines or a unified
enum (which may be undesirable because of type safety in other parts of
the code).

Move the warning to W=2, where warnings that occur frequently but may be
relevant should reside.

commit 8f6629c004b193d23612641c3607e785819e97ab upstream.

-Wenum-enum-conversion was strengthened in clang-19 to warn for C, which
caused the kernel to move it to W=1 in commit 75b5ab134bb5 ("kbuild:
Move -Wenum-{compare-conditional,enum-conversion} into W=1") because
there were numerous instances that would break builds with -Werror.
Unfortunately, this is not a full solution, as more and more developers,
subsystems, and distributors are building with W=1 as well, so they
continue to see the numerous instances of this warning.

Since the move to W=1, there have not been many new instances that have
appeared through various build reports and the ones that have appeared
seem to be following similar existing patterns, suggesting that most
instances of this warning will not be real issues. The only alternatives
for silencing this warning are adding casts (which is generally seen as
an ugly practice) or refactoring the enums to macro defines or a unified
enum (which may be undesirable because of type safety in other parts of
the code).

Move the warning to W=2, where warnings that occur frequently but may be
relevant should reside.

commit e397a603e49cc7c7c113fad9f55a09637f290c34 upstream.

Replace lz4c with lz4 for kernel image compression.
Although lz4 and lz4c are functionally similar, lz4c has been deprecated
upstream since 2018. Since as early as Ubuntu 16.04 and Fedora 25, lz4
and lz4c have been packaged together, making it safe to update the
requirement from lz4c to lz4.

Consequently, some distributions and build systems, such as OpenEmbedded,
have fully transitioned to using lz4. OpenEmbedded core adopted this
change in commit fe167e082cbd ("bitbake.conf: require lz4 instead of
lz4c"), causing compatibility issues when building the mainline kernel
in the latest OpenEmbedded environment, as seen in the errors below.

This change also updates the LZ4 compression commands to make it backward
compatible by replacing stdin and stdout with the '-' option, due to some
unclear reason, the stdout keyword does not work for lz4 and '-' works for
both. In addition, this modifies the legacy '-c1' with '-9' which is also
compatible with both. This fixes the mainline kernel build failures with
the latest master OpenEmbedded builds associated with the mentioned
compatibility issues.

[ Upstream commit a409fc1463d664002ea9bf700ae4674df03de111 ]

The string allocated in sym_warn_unmet_dep() is never freed, leading
to a memory leak when an unmet dependency is detected.
