<content type='text'>
Since commit d05377e184fc ("kconfig: Create links to main menu items
in search"), menuconfig shows a jump key next to "Main menu" if the
nearest visible parent is the rootmenu. If you press that jump key,
menuconfig crashes with a segmentation fault.

For example, do this:

  $ make ARCH=arm64 allnoconfig menuconfig

Press '/' to search for the string "ACPI". Press '1' to choose
"(1) Main menu". Then, menuconfig crashed with a segmentation fault.

The following code in search_conf()

    conf(targets[i]-&gt;parent, targets[i]);

results in NULL pointer dereference because targets[i] is the rootmenu,
which does not have a parent.

Commit d05377e184fc tried to fix the issue of top-level items not having
a jump key, but adding the "Main menu" was not the right fix.

The correct fix is to show the searched item itself. This fixes another
weird behavior described in the comment block.

Commit f73edc8951b2 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") introduced
a typo (moudle.symvers-if-present) which results in the kernel's
Module.symvers to not be included as a prerequisite for
$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Module.symvers. Fix the typo to restore the intended
functionality.

When debugging LLVM IR, it can be handy for clang to not discard value
names used for local variables and parameters. Compare the generated IR.

-fdiscard-value-names:
  define i32 @core_sys_select(i32 %0, ptr %1, ptr %2, ptr %3, ptr %4) {
    %6 = alloca i64
    %7 = alloca %struct.poll_wqueues
    %8 = alloca [64 x i32]

-fno-discard-value-names:
  define i32 @core_sys_select(i32 %n, ptr %inp, ptr %outp, ptr %exp,
                              ptr %end_time) {
    %expire.i = alloca i64
    %table.i = alloca %struct.poll_wqueues
    %stack_fds = alloca [64 x i32]

The rule for generating human readable LLVM IR (.ll) is only useful as a
debugging feature:

$ make LLVM=1 fs/select.ll

As Fangrui notes:
  A LLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=off build of Clang defaults to
  -fdiscard-value-names.

  A LLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=on build of Clang defaults to
  -fno-discard-value-names.

Explicitly enable -fno-discard-value-names so that the IR always contains
value names regardless of whether assertions were enabled or not.
Assertions generally are not enabled in releases of clang packaged by
distributions.

The musl implementation of getopt stops looking for options after the
first non-option argument. Put the options before the non-option
argument so environments using musl can still build the kernel and
modules.

vmlinux.bz2 was added to the rpm packages in 2009 in the
fc370ecfdb37 ("kbuild: add vmlinux to kernel rpm") but seemingly hasn't
been used since.

Originally this should have been split up in a seperate debugging
package because it massively increases the size of the generated rpm's
e.g. kernel rpm built using binrpm-pkg on Fedora 36 default 5.19.8 kernel
config and localmodconfig is ~255MB with vmlinux.bz2 and only ~65MB
without it.

Make the kernel built rpms about 4x smaller by not including the unused
vmlinux.bz2 in them.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.
