This tag contains the new features we'd like to incorporate into the
RISC-V port for 4.17. We might have a bit more stuff land later in the
merge window, but I wanted to get this out earlier just so everyone can
see where we currently stand.
A short summary of the changes is:
* We've added support for dynamic ftrace on RISC-V targets.
* There have been a handful of cleanups to our atomic and locking
routines. They now more closely match the released RISC-V memory
model draft.
* Our module loading support has been cleaned up and is now enabled by
default, despite some limitations still existing.
* A patch to define COMMANDLINE_FORCE instead of COMMANDLINE_OVERRIDE so
the generic device tree code picks up handling all our command line
stuff.
There's more information in the merge commits for each patch set.

Nothing particularly stands out here, probably because people were tied
up with spectre/meltdown stuff last time around. Still, the main pieces
are:
- Rework of our CPU features framework so that we can whitelist CPUs that
don't require kpti even in a heterogeneous system
- Support for the IDC/DIC architecture extensions, which allow us to elide
instruction and data cache maintenance when writing out instructions
- Removal of the large memory model which resulted in suboptimal codegen
by the compiler and increased the use of literal pools, which could
potentially be used as ROP gadgets since they are mapped as executable
- Rework of forced signal delivery so that the siginfo_t is well-formed
and handling of show_unhandled_signals is consolidated and made
consistent between different fault types
- More siginfo cleanup based on the initial patches from Eric Biederman
- Workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum #1024718
- Some small ACPI IORT updates and cleanups from Lorenzo Pieralisi

This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r,
metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure
that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in
mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective
ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw
no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company
in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems
that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the
custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast,
CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained
kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made
sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300,
and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels,
but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their
support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place.
They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but
complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted
their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar.

Since commit 28128c61e0 ("kconfig.h: Include compiler types to avoid
missed struct attributes"), <linux/kconfig.h> pulls in kernel-space
headers to unrelated places.
Commit 0f9da844d8 ("MIPS: boot: Define __ASSEMBLY__ for its.S build")
suppress the build error by defining __ASSEMBLY__, but ITS (i.e. DTS)
is not assembly, and should not include <linux/compiler_types.h> in the
first place.
Looking at arch/s390/tools/Makefile, host programs gen_facilities and
gen_opcode_table now pull in <linux/compiler_types.h> as well.
The motivation for that commit was to define necessary attributes
before any struct is defined. Obviously, this happens only in C.
It is enough to include <linux/compiler_types.h> only when compiling
C files, and only when compiling kernel space. Move the include to
c_flags.

Backmerge tag 'v4.16-rc7' into drm-next
Linux 4.16-rc7
This was requested by Daniel, and things were getting
a bit hard to reconcile, most of the conflicts were
trivial though.
There is a change in how command line parsing is done in this version.
Excludes and includes are now ordered with the file list. Since
the spec file puts the file list before the exclude list it means newer
tar ignores the excludes and packs all the build output into the
kernel-devel RPM resulting in a huge package.
Simple argument re-ordering fixes the problem.

Tracking the line number by hand is error-prone since you need to
increment it in every \n matching pattern.
If '%option yylineno' is set, flex defines 'yylineno' to contain the
current line number and automatically updates it each time it reads a
\n character. This is much more convenient although the lexer does
not initializes yylineno, so you need to set it to 1 each time you
start reading a new file, and restore it you go back to the previous
file.
I tested this with DEBUG_PARSE, and confirmed the same dump message
was produced.
I removed the perf-report option. Otherwise, I see the following
message:
%option yylineno entails a performance penalty ONLY on rules that
can match newline characters

Currently, the recursive inclusion is not detected when the offending
file is about to be included; it is detected the offending file is
about to include the *next* file. This is because the detection loop
does not involve the file being included.

the recursive inclusion is detected before unneeded parsing happens.

nconf.h includes <curses.h> and "ncurses.h", but it does not need to
include both. Generally, it should fall back to curses.h only when
ncurses.h is not found. But, looks like it has never happened;
these includes have been here for many years since commit 692d97c380
("kconfig: new configuration interface (nconfig)"), and nobody has
complained about hard-coding of ncurses.h . Let's simply drop the
curses.h inclusion.
I replaced "ncurses.h" with <ncurses.h> since it is not a local file.

Currently, the unmet dependency warnings end up with endlessly long
expressions, most of which are false positives.
Here is test code to demonstrate how it currently works.
[Test Case]

bool "DEP2"
config A
bool "A"
select E
config B
bool "B"

select E

A (A) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
warning: (A && B && D) selects E which has unmet direct
dependencies (DEP1 && DEP2)
Here, I see some points to be improved.
First, '(A || B || D)' would make more sense than '(A && B && D)'.
I am not sure if this is intentional, but expr_simplify_unmet_dep()
turns OR expressions into AND, like follows:
case E_OR:
return expr_alloc_and(
Second, we see false positives. 'A' is a real unmet dependency.
'B' is false positive because 'DEP1' is fixed to 'y', and 'B' depends
on 'DEP2'. 'C' was correctly dropped by expr_simplify_unmet_dep().
'D' is also false positive because it has no chance to be enabled.
Current expr_simplify_unmet_dep() cannot avoid those false positives.
After all, I decided to use the same helpers as used for printing
reverse dependencies in the help.
With this commit, unreadable warnings (most of the reported symbols are
false positives) in the real world:

Commit 246cf9c26b ("kbuild: Warn on selecting symbols with unmet

So, the unmet direct dependencies of tristate symbols are not reported.
[Test Case]
config MODULES
def_bool y
option modules
config A
def_bool y
select B
config B
tristate "B"
depends on m
This causes unmet dependency because 'B' is forced 'y' ignoring
'depends on m'. This should be warned.
On the other hand, the following case ('B' is bool) should not be
warned, so 'depends on m' for bool symbols should be naturally treated
as 'depends on y'.
[Test Case2 (not unmet dependency)]
config MODULES
def_bool y
option modules
config A
def_bool y
select B
config B

Commit 3b9a19e089 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some symbols

Prior to that commit, the sub-choice values were not set.
I am not sure whether this is an intended feature or just something
people discovered works, but it is used in the real world;
drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig is source'd in a choice context,
then creates a sub-choice in it.
For the test case in this commit, there are 3 possible results.
Case 1:
CONFIG_A=y
# CONFIG_B is not set
Case 2:
# CONFIG_A is not set
CONFIG_B=y
CONFIG_C=y
# CONFIG_D is not set
Case 3:
# CONFIG_A is not set

# CONFIG_C is not set

Commit fbe98bb9ed ("kconfig: Fix defconfig when one choice menu
selects options that another choice menu depends on") fixed defconfig
when two choices interact (i.e. calculating the visibility of a choice
requires to calculate another choice).
The test code in that commit log was based on the real world example,
and complicated. So, I shrunk it down to the following:
defconfig.choice:
---8<---
CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=y
---8<---
---8<---
config MODULES
def_bool y
option modules
choice
prompt "Choice"
config CHOICE_VAL0
tristate "Choice 0"
config CHOICE_VAL1
tristate "Choice 1"
endchoice
choice
prompt "Another choice"
depends on CHOICE_VAL0
config DUMMY
bool "dummy"
endchoice
---8<---
Prior to commit fbe98bb9ed,
$ scripts/kconfig/conf --defconfig=defconfig.choice Kconfig.choice
resulted in:
CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=m
# CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL1 is not set
CONFIG_DUMMY=y
where the expected result would be:
CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=y
# CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL1 is not set
CONFIG_DUMMY=y
Roughly, this weird behavior happened like this:
Symbols are calculated a couple of times. First, all symbols are
calculated in conf_read(). The first 'choice' is evaluated to 'y'
due to the SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag, but sym_calc_choice() clears it
unless all of its choice values are explicitly set by the user.
conf_set_all_new_symbols() clears all SYMBOL_VALID flags. Then, only
choices are calculated. Here, the SYMBOL_DEF_USER for the first choice
has been forgotten, so it is evaluated to 'm'. set_all_choice_values()
sets SYMBOL_DEF_USER again to choice symbols.
When calculating the second choice, due to 'depends on CHOICE_VAL0',
it triggers the calculation of CHOICE_VAL0. As a result, SYMBOL_VALID
is set for CHOICE_VAL0.
Symbols except choices get the final chance of re-calculation in
conf_write(). In a normal case, CHOICE_VAL0 would be re-calculated,
then the first choice would be indirectly re-calculated with the
SYMBOL_DEF_USER which has been recalled by set_all_choice_values(),
which would be evaluated to 'y'. But, in this case, CHOICE_VAL0 has
already been marked as SYMBOL_VALID, so this re-calculation does not
happen. Then, =m from the conf_set_all_new_symbols() phase is written
out to the .config file.
Add a unit test for this naive case.

Many parts in Kconfig are so cryptic and need refactoring. However,
its complexity prevents us from moving forward. There are several
naive corner cases where it is difficult to notice breakage. If
those are covered by unit tests, we will be able to touch the code
with more confidence.
Here is a simple test framework based on pytest. The conftest.py
provides a fixture useful to run commands such as 'oldaskconfig' etc.
and to compare the resulted .config, stdout, stderr with expectations.
How to add test cases?
----------------------
For each test case, you should create a subdirectory under
scripts/kconfig/tests/ (so test cases are separated from each other).
Every test case directory should contain the following files:
- __init__.py: describes test functions
- Kconfig: the top level Kconfig file for the test
To do a useful job, test cases generally need additional data like
input .config and information about expected results.
How to run tests?

The local{yes,mod}config targets currently have streamline_config.pl as

Remove the prerequisite and reference streamline_config.pl directly in

As commit cedd55d49d ("kconfig: Remove silentoldconfig from help
and docs; fix kconfig/conf's help") mentioned, 'silentoldconfig' is a
historical misnomer. That commit removed it from help and docs since
it is an internal interface. If so, it should be allowed to rename
it to something more intuitive. 'syncconfig' is the one I came up
with because it updates the .config if necessary, then synchronize
include/generated/autoconf.h and include/config/* with it.
You should not manually invoke 'silentoldcofig'. Display warning if
used in case existing scripts are doing wrong.

Historically, "make oldconfig" has changed its behavior several times,
quieter or louder. (I attached the history below.) Currently, it is
not as quiet as it should be. This commit addresses it.
Test Case
---------
---------------------------(Kconfig)----------------------------
menu "menu"
config FOO
bool "foo"
menu "sub menu"
config BAR
bool "bar"
endmenu
endmenu
menu "sibling menu"
config BAZ
bool "baz"
endmenu
----------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------(.config)----------------------------
CONFIG_BAR=y
CONFIG_BAZ=y
----------------------------------------------------------------
With the Kconfig and .config above, "make silentoldconfig" and
"make oldconfig" work differently, like follows:
$ make silentoldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
*
* Restart config...
*
*
* menu
*
foo (FOO) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
#
# configuration written to .config
#
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig
*
* Restart config...
*
*
* menu
*
foo (FOO) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
*
* sub menu
*
bar (BAR) [Y/n/?] y
#
# configuration written to .config
#
Both hide "sibling node" since it is irrelevant. The difference is
that silentoldconfig hides "sub menu" whereas oldconfig does not.
The behavior of silentoldconfig is preferred since the "sub menu"
does not contain any new symbol.
The root cause is in conf(). There are three input modes that can
call conf(); oldaskconfig, oldconfig, and silentoldconfig.
Everytime conf() encounters a menu entry, it calls check_conf() to
check if it contains new symbols. If no new symbol is found, the
menu is just skipped.
Currently, this happens only when input_mode == silentoldconfig.
The oldaskconfig enters into the check_conf() loop as silentoldconfig,
so oldaskconfig works likewise for the second loop or later, but it
never happens for oldconfig. So, irrelevant sub-menus are shown for
oldconfig.
Change the test condition to "input_mode != oldaskconfig". This is
false only for the first loop of oldaskconfig; it must ask the user
all symbols, so no need to call check_conf().
History of oldconfig
--------------------
[0] Originally, "make oldconfig" was as loud as "make config" (It
showed the entire .config file)
[1] Commit cd9140e1e7 ("kconfig: make oldconfig is now less chatty")
made oldconfig quieter, but it was still less quieter than
silentoldconfig. (oldconfig did not hide sub-menus)
[2] Commit 204c96f609 ("kconfig: fix silentoldconfig") changed
the input_mode of oldconfig to "ask_silent" from "ask_new".
So, oldconfig really became as quiet as silentoldconfig.
(oldconfig hided irrelevant sub-menus)
[3] Commit 4062f1a4c0 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") made
oldconfig as loud as [0] due to misconversion.
[4] Commit 1482834971 ("kconfig: fix make oldconfig") addressed
the misconversion of [3], but it made oldconfig quieter only to
the same level as [1], not [2].
This commit is restoring the behavior of [2].

check_conf() traverses the menu tree, but it is completely no-op for
olddefconfig because the following if-else block does nothing.
if (input_mode == listnewconfig) {
...
} else if (input_mode != olddefconfig) {

}
As the help message says, olddefconfig automatically sets new symbols
to their default value. There is no room for manual intervention.
So, calling check_conf() for olddefconfig is odd in the first place.

=== Background ===
- Visible n-valued bool/tristate symbols generate a
'# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line in the .config file. The idea is to
remember the user selection without having to set a Makefile
variable. Having n correspond to the variable being undefined in the
Makefiles makes for easy CONFIG_* tests.
- Invisible n-valued bool/tristate symbols normally do not generate a
'# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line, because user values from .config
files have no effect on invisible symbols anyway.
Currently, there is one exception to this rule: Any bool/tristate symbol
that gets the value n through a 'default' property generates a
'# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line, even if the symbol is invisible.
Note that this only applies to explicitly given defaults, and not when
the symbol implicitly defaults to n (like bool/tristate symbols without
'default' properties do).
This is inconsistent, and seems redundant:
- As mentioned, the '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' won't affect the symbol
once the .config is read back in.
- Even if the symbol is invisible at first but becomes visible later,
there shouldn't be any harm in recalculating the default value
rather than viewing the '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' as a previous
user value of n.
=== Changes ===
Change sym_calc_value() to only set SYMBOL_WRITE (write to .config) for
non-n-valued 'default' properties.
Note that SYMBOL_WRITE is always set for visible symbols regardless of whether
they have 'default' properties or not, so this change only affects invisible
symbols.
This reduces the size of the x86 .config on my system by about 1% (due
to removed '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' entries).
One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making
the following two definitions behave exactly the same:
config FOO
bool
config FOO
bool
default n
With this change, neither of these will generate a
'# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied).
That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is
redundant.
This change only affects generated .config files and not autoconf.h:
autoconf.h only includes #defines for non-n bool/tristate symbols.
=== Testing ===
The following testing was done with the x86 Kconfigs:
- .config files generated before and after the change were compared to
verify that the only difference is some '# CONFIG_FOO is not set'
entries disappearing. A couple of these were inspected manually, and
most turned out to be from redundant 'default n/def_bool n'
properties.
- The generated include/generated/autoconf.h was compared before and
after the change and verified to be identical.
- As a sanity check, the same modification was done to Kconfiglib.
The Kconfiglib test suite was then run to check for any mismatches
against the output of the C implementation.

Surprisingly or not, disabling a CONFIG option (which is assumed to
be unneeded) may be not so trivial. Especially it is not trivial, when
this CONFIG option is selected by a dozen of other configs. Before the
moment commit 1ccb271433 ("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and
"Implied by:" readable") popped up in v4.16-rc1, it was an absolute pain
to break down the "Selected by" reverse dependency expression in order
to identify all those configs which select (IOW *do not allow
disabling*) a certain feature (assumed to be not needed).
This patch tries to make one step further by putting at users'
fingertips the revdep top level OR sub-expressions grouped/clustered by
the tristate value they evaluate to. This should allow the users to
directly concentrate on and tackle the _active_ reverse dependencies.
To give some numbers and quantify the complexity of certain reverse
dependencies, assuming commit 617aebe6a9 ("Merge tag
'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux"), ARCH=arm64
and vanilla arm64 defconfig, here is the top 10 CONFIG options with
the highest amount of top level "||" sub-expressions/tokens that make
up the final "Selected by" reverse dependency expression.
| Config | All revdep | Active revdep |
|-------------------|------------|---------------|
| REGMAP_I2C | 212 | 9 |
| CRC32 | 167 | 25 |
| FW_LOADER | 128 | 5 |
| MFD_CORE | 124 | 9 |
| FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT | 114 | 2 |
| FB_CFB_COPYAREA | 111 | 2 |
| FB_CFB_FILLRECT | 110 | 2 |
| SND_PCM | 103 | 2 |
| CRYPTO_HASH | 87 | 19 |
| WATCHDOG_CORE | 86 | 6 |
The story behind the above is that users need to visually
review/evaluate 212 expressions which *potentially* select REGMAP_I2C
in order to identify the expressions which *actually* select REGMAP_I2C,
for a particular ARCH and for a particular defconfig used.
To make this experience smoother, change the way reverse dependencies
are displayed to the user from [1] to [2].

This commit splits out the special E_OR handling ('-' instead of '||')
into a dedicated helper expr_print_revdev().
Restore the original expr_print() prior to commit 1ccb271433
("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and "Implied by:" readable").
This makes sense because:
- We need to chop those expressions only when printing the reverse
dependency, and only when E_OR is encountered
- Otherwise, it should be printed as before, so fall back to
expr_print()
This also improves the behavior; for a single line, it was previously
displayed in the same line as "Selected by", like this:
Selected by: A [=n] && B [=n]
This will be displayed in a new line, consistently:

IMO, we should discourage '---help---' for new help texts, even in cases
where it would be consistent with other help texts in the file. This
will help if we ever want to get rid of '---help---' in the future.
Also simplify the code to only check for exactly '---help---'. Since
commit c2264564df ("kconfig: warn of unhandled characters in Kconfig
commands"), '---help---' is a proper keyword and can only appear in that
form. Prior to that commit, '---help---' working was more of a syntactic

Currently, only Kconfig symbols are checked for a missing or short help
text, and are only checked if they are defined with the 'config'
keyword.
To make the check more general, extend it to also check help texts for
choices and for symbols defined with the 'menuconfig' keyword.
This increases the accuracy of the check for symbols that would already
have been checked as well, since e.g. a 'menuconfig' symbol after a help
text will be recognized as ending the preceding symbol/choice
definition.
To increase the accuracy of the check further, also recognize 'if',
'endif', 'menu', 'endmenu', 'endchoice', and 'source' as ending a
symbol/choice definition.

When built-in.o was incrementally linked with 'ld -r', the section
mismatch analysis for the individual built-in.o was possible when
CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH was enabled.
With the migration to the thin archive, built-in.a (former, built-in.o)
is no longer an ELF file. So, the modpost does nothing useful.
scripts/mod/modpost.c just checks the header to bail out, as follows:
/* Is this a valid ELF file? */
if ((hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG0] != ELFMAG0) ||
(hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG1] != ELFMAG1) ||
(hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG2] != ELFMAG2) ||
(hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG3] != ELFMAG3)) {
/* Not an ELF file - silently ignore it */
return 0;
}
We have the full analysis in the final link stage anyway, so we would
not miss the section mismatching.
I do not see a good reason to require extra linking only for the
purpose of the per-directory analysis. Just get rid of this part.

In Kbuild, Makefiles can add the same object to obj-y multiple
times. So,
obj-y += foo.o
obj-y += foo.o
is fine.
However, this is not true when the same object is added multiple
times via composite objects. For example,
obj-y += foo.o bar.o
foo-objs := foo-bar-common.o foo-only.o
bar-objs := foo-bar-common.o bar-only.o
causes build error because two instances of foo-bar-common.o are
linked into the vmlinux.
Makefiles tend to invent ugly work-around, for example
- lib/zstd/Makefile
- drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/liquidio/Makefile
The technique used in Kbuild to avoid the multiple definition error
is to use $(filter $(obj-y), $^). Here, $^ lists the names of all
the prerequisites with duplicated names removed.
By replacing it with $(filter $(real-obj-y), $^) we can do likewise
for composite objects. For built-in objects, we do not need to keep
the composite object structure. We can simply expand them, and link
$(real-obj-y) to built-in.a.
