Linus Torvalds 70ad6368e8 Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest part is a series of reverts for the macro based GCC
  inlining workarounds. It caused regressions in distro build and other
  kernel tooling environments, and the GCC project was very receptive to
  fixing the underlying inliner weaknesses - so as time ran out we
  decided to do a reasonably straightforward revert of the patches. The
  plan is to rely on the 'asm inline' GCC 9 feature, which might be
  backported to GCC 8 and could thus become reasonably widely available
  on modern distros.

  Other than those reverts, there's misc fixes from all around the
  place.

  I wish our final x86 pull request for v4.20 was smaller..."

Thierry Reding 3a6ab5c7dc scripts/spdxcheck.py: always open files in binary mode
The spdxcheck script currently falls over when confronted with a binary
file (such as Documentation/logo.gif).  To avoid that, always open files
in binary mode and decode line-by-line, ignoring encoding errors.

One tricky case is when piping data into the script and reading it from
standard input.  By default, standard input will be opened in text mode,
so we need to reopen it in binary mode.

The breakage only happens with python3 and results in a
UnicodeDecodeError (according to Uwe).

Qian Cai f1733a1d3c checkstack.pl: fix for aarch64
There is actually a space after "sp," like this,

    ffff2000080813c8:       a9bb7bfd        stp     x29, x30, [sp, #-80]!

Right now, checkstack.pl isn't able to print anything on aarch64,
because it won't be able to match the stating objdump line of a function
due to this missing space.  Hence, it displays every stack as zero-size.

After this patch, checkpatch.pl is able to match the start of a
function's objdump, and is then able to calculate each function's stack
correctly.

Alexander Popov 8fb2dfb228 stackleak: Register the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass before the '*free_cfg' pass
Currently the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass deleting a CALL insn is executed
after the 'reload' pass. That allows gcc to do some weird optimization in
function prologues and epilogues, which are generated later [1].

Let's avoid that by registering the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass before
the '*free_cfg' pass. It's the moment when the stack frame size is
already final, function prologues and epilogues are generated, and the
machine-dependent code transformations are not done.

Pull STIBP fallout fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The performance destruction department finally got it's act together
  and came up with a cure for the STIPB regression:

   - Provide a command line option to control the spectre v2 user space
     mitigations. Default is either seccomp or prctl (if seccomp is
     disabled in Kconfig). prctl allows mitigation opt-in, seccomp
     enables the migitation for sandboxed processes.

   - Rework the code to handle the conditional STIBP/IBPB control and
     remove the now unused ptrace_may_access_sched() optimization
     attempt

   - Disable STIBP automatically when SMT is disabled

   - Optimize the switch_to() logic to avoid MSR writes and invocations
     of __switch_to_xtra().

   - Make the asynchronous speculation TIF updates synchronous to
     prevent stale mitigation state.

  As a general cleanup this also makes retpoline directly depend on
  compiler support and removes the 'minimal retpoline' option which just
  pretended to provide some form of security while providing none"

Linus Torvalds 38c7b224ce unifdef: use memcpy instead of strncpy
New versions of gcc reasonably warn about the odd pattern of

	strncpy(p, q, strlen(q));

which really doesn't make sense: the strncpy() ends up being just a slow
and odd way to write memcpy() in this case.

There was a comment about _why_ the code used strncpy - to avoid the
terminating NUL byte, but memcpy does the same and avoids the warning.

Uwe Kleine-König 6f4d29df66 scripts/spdxcheck.py: make python3 compliant
Without this change the following happens when using Python3 (3.6.6):

	$ echo "GPL-2.0" | python3 scripts/spdxcheck.py -
	FAIL: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'
	Traceback (most recent call last):
	  File "scripts/spdxcheck.py", line 253, in <module>
	    parser.parse_lines(sys.stdin, args.maxlines, '-')
	  File "scripts/spdxcheck.py", line 171, in parse_lines
	    line = line.decode(locale.getpreferredencoding(False), errors='ignore')
	AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'

So as the line is already a string, there is no need to decode it and
the line can be dropped.

/usr/bin/python on Arch is Python 3.  So this would indeed be worth
going into 4.19.

Rob Herring d5615e472d builddeb: Fix inclusion of dtbs in debian package
Commit 37c8a5fafa ("kbuild: consolidate Devicetree dtb build rules")
moved the location of 'dtbs_install' target which caused dtbs to not be
installed when building debian package with 'bindeb-pkg' target. Update
the builddeb script to use the same logic that determines if there's a
'dtbs_install' target which is presence of the arch dts directory. Also,
use CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE instead of CONFIG_OF as that's a better
indication of whether we are building dtbs.

This commit will also have the side effect of installing dtbs on any
arch that has dts files. Previously, it was dependent on whether the
arch defined 'dtbs_install'.

Guenter Roeck 8ef14c2c41 Revert "scripts/setlocalversion: git: Make -dirty check more robust"
This reverts commit 6147b1cf19.

The reverted patch results in attempted write access to the source
repository, even if that repository is mounted read-only.

Output from "strace git status -uno --porcelain":

getcwd("/tmp/linux-test", 129)          = 16
open("/tmp/linux-test/.git/index.lock", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) =
	-1 EROFS (Read-only file system)

While git appears to be able to handle this situation, a monitored
build environment (such as the one used for Chrome OS kernel builds)
may detect it and bail out with an access violation error. On top of
that, the attempted write access suggests that git _will_ write to the
file even if a build output directory is specified. Users may have the
reasonable expectation that the source repository remains untouched in
that situation.

Masahiro Yamada bbcde0a724 kbuild: deb-pkg: fix too low build version number
Since commit b41d920acf ("kbuild: deb-pkg: split generating packaging
and build"), the build version of the kernel contained in a deb package
is too low by 1.

Prior to the bad commit, the kernel was built first, then the number
in .version file was read out, and written into the debian control file.

Now, the debian control file is created before the kernel is actually
compiled, which is causing the version number mismatch.

Let the mkdebian script pass KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION=${revision} to require
the build system to use the specified version number.

Masahiro Yamada 9951674207 kbuild: remove cc-name variable
There is one more user of $(cc-name) in the top Makefile. It is supposed
to detect Clang before invoking Kconfig, so it should still be there
in the $(shell ...) form. All the other users of $(cc-name) have been
replaced with $(CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG). Hence, scripts/Kbuild.include does
not need to define cc-name any more.

Masahiro Yamada 076f421da5 kbuild: replace cc-name test with CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG
Evaluating cc-name invokes the compiler every time even when you are
not compiling anything, like 'make help'. This is not efficient.

The compiler type has been already detected in the Kconfig stage.
Use CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG, instead.

Linus Torvalds e468f5c06b The Compiler Attributes series
This is an effort to disentangle the include/linux/compiler*.h headers
 and bring them up to date.
 
 The main idea behind the series is to use feature checking macros
 (i.e. __has_attribute) instead of compiler version checks (e.g. GCC_VERSION),
 which are compiler-agnostic (so they can be shared, reducing the size
 of compiler-specific headers) and version-agnostic.
 
 Other related improvements have been performed in the headers as well,
 which on top of the use of __has_attribute it has amounted to a significant
 simplification of these headers (e.g. GCC_VERSION is now only guarding
 a few non-attribute macros).
 
 This series should also help the efforts to support compiling the kernel
 with clang and icc. A fair amount of documentation and comments have also
 been added, clarified or removed; and the headers are now more readable,
 which should help kernel developers in general.
 
 The series was triggered due to the move to gcc >= 4.6. In turn, this series
 has also triggered Sparse to gain the ability to recognize __has_attribute
 on its own.
 
 Finally, the __nonstring variable attribute series has been also applied
 on top; plus two related patches from Nick Desaulniers for unreachable()
 that came a bit afterwards.

Merge tag 'stackleak-v4.20-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull stackleak gcc plugin from Kees Cook:
 "Please pull this new GCC plugin, stackleak, for v4.20-rc1. This plugin
  was ported from grsecurity by Alexander Popov. It provides efficient
  stack content poisoning at syscall exit. This creates a defense
  against at least two classes of flaws:

   - Uninitialized stack usage. (We continue to work on improving the
     compiler to do this in other ways: e.g. unconditional zero init was
     proposed to GCC and Clang, and more plugin work has started too).

   - Stack content exposure. By greatly reducing the lifetime of valid
     stack contents, exposures via either direct read bugs or unknown
     cache side-channels become much more difficult to exploit. This
     complements the existing buddy and heap poisoning options, but
     provides the coverage for stacks.

  The x86 hooks are included in this series (which have been reviewed by
  Ingo, Dave Hansen, and Thomas Gleixner). The arm64 hooks have already
  been merged through the arm64 tree (written by Laura Abbott and
  reviewed by Mark Rutland and Will Deacon).

  With VLAs having been removed this release, there is no need for
  alloca() protection, so it has been removed from the plugin"

There are some projects which use kconfig with different prefixes (e.g.
buildroot: BR2_ prefix). CONFIG_ variable is already used for this
purpose in kconfig binary (scripts/kconfig/lkc.h), let's use the same
rule for in merge_config.sh.

Christophe Leroy 22ebb72b32 checkpatch: remove GCC_BINARY_CONSTANT warning
This warning was there to avoid the use of 0bxxx values as they are not
supported by gcc prior to v4.3

Since cafa0010cd ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6"),
it's not an issue anymore and using such values can increase readability
of code.

: Seems sensible as the other compilers also support binary literals from

Pull Devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
 "A bit bigger than normal as I've been busy this cycle.

  There's a few things with dependencies and a few things subsystem
  maintainers didn't pick up, so I'm taking them thru my tree.

  The fixes from Johan didn't get into linux-next, but they've been
  waiting for some time now and they are what's left of what subsystem
  maintainers didn't pick up.

  Summary:

   - Sync dtc with upstream version v1.4.7-14-gc86da84d30e4

   - Work to get rid of direct accesses to struct device_node name and
     type pointers in preparation for removing them. New helpers for
     parsing DT cpu nodes and conversions to use the helpers. printk
     conversions to %pOFn for printing DT node names. Most went thru
     subystem trees, so this is the remainder.

   - Fixes to DT child node lookups to actually be restricted to child
     nodes instead of treewide.

   - Refactoring of dtb targets out of arch code. This makes the support
     more uniform and enables building all dtbs on c6x, microblaze, and
     powerpc.

   - Various DT binding updates for Renesas r8a7744 SoC

   - Vendor prefixes for Facebook, OLPC

   - Restructuring of some ARM binding docs moving some peripheral
     bindings out of board/SoC binding files

   - New "secure-chosen" binding for secure world settings on ARM

   - Dual licensing of 2 DT IRQ binding headers"

Since commit c8589d1e9e ("kbuild: handle multi-objs dependency
appropriately"), $^ really represents all the prerequisite of the
composite object being built.

Hence, $(filter %.o,$^) contains all the objects to link together,
which is much simpler than link_multi_deps calculation.

Please note $(filter-out FORCE,$^) does not work here. When a single
object module is turned into a multi object module, $^ will contain
header files that were previously included for building the single
object, and recorded in the .*.cmd file. To filter out such headers,
$(filter %.o,$^) should be used here.

Randy Dunlap cf419d542f kernel-doc: fix declaration type determination
Make declaration type determination more robust.

When scripts/kernel-doc is deciding if some kernel-doc notation
contains an enum, a struct, a union, a typedef, or a function,
it does a pattern match on the beginning of the string, looking
for a match with one of "struct", "union", "enum", or "typedef",
and otherwise defaults to a function declaration type.
However, if a function or a function-like macro has a name that
begins with "struct" (e.g., struct_size()), then kernel-doc
incorrectly decides that this is a struct declaration.

Fix this by looking for the declaration type keywords having an
ending word boundary (\b), so that "struct_size" will not match
a struct declaration.

I compared lots of html before/after output from core-api, driver-api,
and networking.  There were no differences in any of the files that
I checked.

Helge Deller db139d71c4 extract-vmlinux: Check for uncompressed image as fallback
As on x86-64 and other architectures, the boot kernel on parisc (vmlinuz
and bzImage) contains a full compressed copy of the final kernel
executable (vmlinux.bin.gz), which one should be able to extract with
the extract-vmlinux script.

But on parisc extracting the kernel with extract-vmlinux fails.
Currently the script first checks if the given file is an ELF file
(which is true on parisc) and if so returns it.  Thus on parisc we
unexpectedly get back the vmlinuz boot file instead of the uncompressed
vmlinux image.

This patch fixes this issue by reverting the logic. It now first tries
to find a compression signature in the given file and if that fails it
checks the file itself as fallback.

Masahiro Yamada 74bc0c09b2 kbuild: remove user ID check in scripts/mkmakefile
This line was added by commit fd5f0cd6b0 ("kbuild: Do not overwrite
makefile as anohter user").  Its commit description says the intention
was to prevent $(objtree)/Makefile from being owned by root when e.g.
running 'make install'.

However, as commit 19514fc665 ("arm, kbuild: make "make install" not
depend on vmlinux") stated, installation targets must not modify the
source tree in the first place.  If they do, we are already screwed up.
We must fix the root cause.

Installation targets should just copy files verbatim, hence we never
expect $(objtree)/Makefile is touched by root.  The user ID check in
scripts/mkmakefile is unneeded.

Nadav Amit 77b0bf55bc kbuild/Makefile: Prepare for using macros in inline assembly code to work around asm() related GCC inlining bugs
Using macros in inline assembly allows us to work around bugs
in GCC's inlining decisions.

Compile macros.S and use it to assemble all C files.
Currently only x86 will use it.

Background:

The inlining pass of GCC doesn't include an assembler, so it's not aware
of basic properties of the generated code, such as its size in bytes,
or that there are such things as discontiuous blocks of code and data
due to the newfangled linker feature called 'sections' ...

Instead GCC uses a lazy and fragile heuristic: it does a linear count of
certain syntactic and whitespace elements in inlined assembly block source
code, such as a count of new-lines and semicolons (!), as a poor substitute
for "code size and complexity".

Unsurprisingly this heuristic falls over and breaks its neck whith certain
common types of kernel code that use inline assembly, such as the frequent
practice of putting useful information into alternative sections.

As a result of this fresh, 20+ years old GCC bug, GCC's inlining decisions
are effectively disabled for inlined functions that make use of such asm()
blocks, because GCC thinks those sections of code are "large" - when in
reality they are often result in just a very low number of machine
instructions.

This absolute lack of inlining provess when GCC comes across such asm()
blocks both increases generated kernel code size and causes performance
overhead, which is particularly noticeable on paravirt kernels, which make
frequent use of these inlining facilities in attempt to stay out of the
way when running on baremetal hardware.

Instead of fixing the compiler we use a workaround: we set an assembly macro
and call it from the inlined assembly block. As a result GCC considers the
inline assembly block as a single instruction. (Which it often isn't but I digress.)

This uglifies and bloats the source code - for example just the refcount
related changes have this impact:

 Makefile                 |    9 +++++++--
 arch/x86/Makefile        |    7 +++++++
 arch/x86/kernel/macros.S |    7 +++++++
 scripts/Kbuild.include   |    4 +++-
 scripts/mod/Makefile     |    2 ++
 5 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)

Yay readability and maintainability, it's not like assembly code is hard to read
and maintain ...

We also hope that GCC will eventually get fixed, but we are not holding
our breath for that. Yet we are optimistic, it might still happen, any decade now.
