ARM: replace unnecessary perl with sed and the shell $(( )) operator

2018-05-19T10:35:56+00:00

You can build a kernel in a cross compiling environment that doesn't
have perl in the $PATH. Commit 429f7a062e3b broke that for 32 bit
ARM. Fix it.

As reported by Stephen Rothwell, it appears that the symbols can be
either part of the BSS section or absolute symbols depending on the
binutils version.  When they're an absolute symbol, the $(( ))
operator errors out and the build fails.  Fix this as well.

ARM: 8758/1: decompressor: restore r1 and r2 just before jumping to the kernel

2018-05-19T10:35:56+00:00

The hypervisor setup before __enter_kernel destroys the value
sotred in r1. The value needs to be restored just before the jump.

added to the addruart macro, but the decompressor code wasn't updated.

zboot: fix stack protector in compressed boot phase

2018-04-06T04:36:21+00:00

Calling __stack_chk_guard_setup() in decompress_kernel() is too late
that stack checking always fails for decompress_kernel() itself.  So
remove __stack_chk_guard_setup() and initialize __stack_chk_guard before
we call decompress_kernel().

Original code comes from ARM but also used for MIPS and SH, so fix them
together.  If without this fix, compressed booting of these archs will
fail because stack checking is enabled by default (>=4.16).

ARM: decompressor: fix warning introduced in fortify patch

2018-04-05T22:56:40+00:00

Commit ee333554fed5 ("ARM: 8749/1: Kconfig: Add ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE")
introduced a new warning:

arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c: In function 'fortify_panic':
arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c:167:1: error: 'noreturn' function does return [-Werror]

The simple solution would be to make 'error' a noreturn function, but
this causes a prototype mismatch as the function is prototyped in
several .c files.  So, move the function prototype to a new header.

There are also a couple of variables that are also declared in several
locations.  Clean this up while we are here.

ARM: 8749/1: Kconfig: Add ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE

2018-03-28T20:30:58+00:00

CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE detects various overflows at compile-time.
(6974f0c4555e ("include/linux/string.h:
add the option of fortified string.h functions)

ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE means that the architecture can be built and
run with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.

Since ARM can be built and run with that flag like other architectures,
select ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE as default.

ARM: 8745/1: get rid of __memzero()

2018-01-21T15:37:56+00:00

The __memzero assembly code is almost identical to memset's except for
two orr instructions. The runtime performance of __memset(p, n) and
memset(p, 0, n) is accordingly almost identical.

However, the memset() macro used to guard against a zero length and to
call __memzero at compile time when the fill value is a constant zero
interferes with compiler optimizations.

Arnd found tha the test against a zero length brings up some new
warnings with gcc v8:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82103

And successively rremoving the test against a zero length and the call
to __memzero optimization produces the following kernel sizes for
defconfig with gcc 6:

    text     data     bss       dec       hex  filename
12248142  6278960  413588  18940690   1210312  vmlinux.orig
12244474  6278960  413588  18937022   120f4be  vmlinux.no_zero_test
12239160  6278960  413588  18931708   120dffc  vmlinux.no_memzero

So it is probably not worth keeping __memzero around given that the
compiler can do a better job at inlining trivial memset(p,0,n) on its
own. And the memset code already handles a zero length just fine.
