menu_end_entry() is empty and completely unused as far as I can tell:
$ git log -G menu_end_entry --oneline
a02f057 [PATCH] kconfig: improve error handling in the parser
1da177e Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Last one is the initial Git commit, where menu_end_entry() is empty as
well. I couldn't find anything that redefined it on Google either.
It might be a debugging helper for setting a breakpoint after each
config, menuconfig, and comment is parsed. IMO it hurts more than it
helps in that case by making the parsing code look more complicated at a
glance than it really is, and I suspect it doesn't get used much.
Tested by running the Kconfiglib test suite, which indirectly verifies
that the .config files generated by the C implementation for each
defconfig file in the kernel stays the same.

Many of these functions are quite the head scratchers if you don't know
what they're trying to do. Document them.
Also make it clear which functions rewrite expressions in-place and
which return new expressions. This prevents memory errors.

When propagating dependencies from parents after parsing, an expression
node is allocated if the parent symbol is a 'choice'. This node was
never freed.
Outline of leak:
if (sym && sym_is_choice(sym)) {
...
*Allocate (in this case only)*
parentdep = expr_alloc_symbol(sym);
} else if (parent->prompt)
parentdep = parent->prompt->visible.expr;
else
parentdep = parent->dep;
for (menu = parent->list; menu; menu = menu->next) {
...
*Copy*
basedep = expr_alloc_and(expr_copy(parentdep), basedep);
...
}
*parentdep lost if the parent is a choice!*
Fix by freeing 'parentdep' after the loop if the parent symbol is a
choice. Note that this only frees the expression node and not the choice
symbol itself.

Only the E_NOT operand and not the E_NOT node itself was freed, due to
accidentally returning too early in expr_free(). Outline of leak:
switch (e->type) {
...
case E_NOT:
expr_free(e->left.expr);
return;
...
}
*Never reached, 'e' leaked*
free(e);
Fix by changing the 'return' to a 'break'.

expr_trans_compare() always allocates and returns a new expression,
giving the following leak outline:
...
*Allocate*
basedep = expr_trans_compare(basedep, E_UNEQUAL, &symbol_no);
...
for (menu = parent->next; menu; menu = menu->next) {
...
*Copy*
dep2 = expr_copy(basedep);
...
*Free copy*
expr_free(dep2);
}
*basedep lost!*
Fix by freeing 'basedep' after the loop.

If a 'mainmenu' entry appeared in the Kconfig files, two things would
leak:
- The 'struct property' allocated for the default "Linux Kernel
Configuration" prompt.
- The string for the T_WORD/T_WORD_QUOTE prompt after the
T_MAINMENU token, allocated on the heap in zconf.l.
To fix it, introduce a new 'no_mainmenu_stmt' nonterminal that matches
if there's no 'mainmenu' and adds the default prompt. That means the
prompt only gets allocated once regardless of whether there's a
'mainmenu' statement or not, and managing it becomes simple.

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.

refcount_t overflow detection is implemented as two way.
1. REFCOUNT_FULL
- It means the full refcount_t implementation
which has validation but is slightly slower.
- (fd25d19f6b8d ("locking/refcount:
Create unchecked atomic_t implementation"))
2. ARCH_HAS_REFCOUNT
- refcount_t overflow detection can be optimized
via an arch-dependent way.
- It is based on atomic_t infrastructure
with some instruction added for detection.
- It is faster than REFCOUNT_FULL,
as fast as unprotected atomic_t infrastructure.
- (7a46ec0e2f48 ("locking/refcounts, x86/asm:
Implement fast refcount overflow protection"))
ARCH_HAS_REFCOUNT has implemented for x86,
not implemented for others.
In the case of arm64,
Will Deacon said he didn't want the specialized
"fast but technically incomplete" refcounting as seen with x86's.
But rather to set REFCOUNT_FULL by default
because no one could point to real-world performance impacts with
REFCOUNT_FULL vs unprotected atomic_t infrastructure.
This is the reason arm64 ended up enabling REFCOUNT_FULL.
(4adcec1164de ("arm64: Always use REFCOUNT_FULL"))
As with the decision of arm64,
arm can set REFCOUNT_FULL by default.

Improve the DTS files by removing all the leading "0x" and zeros to
fix the following dtc warnings:
Warning (unit_address_format): Node /XXX unit name should not have leading "0x"
and:
Warning (unit_address_format): Node /XXX unit name should not have leading 0s
Converted using the following command:
find . -type f \( -iname *.dts -o -iname *.dtsi \) -exec sed -E -i -e "s/@0x([0-9a-fA-F\.]+)\s?\{/@\L\1 \{/g" -e "s/@0+([0-9a-fA-F\.]+)\s?\{/@\L\1 \{/g" {} +
For simplicity, two sed expressions were used to solve each warnings
separately.
To make the regex expression more robust a few other issues were
resolved, namely setting unit-address to lower case, and adding a
whitespace before the the opening curly brace:

One of the easiest way to test config with 4K HPTE is to disable 64K hardware
page size like below.
int __init htab_dt_scan_page_sizes(unsigned long node,
size -= 3; prop += 3;
base_idx = get_idx_from_shift(base_shift);
- if (base_idx < 0) {
+ if (base_idx < 0 || base_idx == MMU_PAGE_64K) {
/* skip the pte encoding also */
prop += lpnum * 2; size -= lpnum * 2;
But then this results in error in other part of the code such as MPSS parsing
where we look at 4K base page size and 64K actual page size support.
This patch fix MPSS parsing by ignoring the actual page sizes marked
unsupported. In reality this can happen only with a corrupt device tree. But it
is good to tighten the error check.

The switch log prints the tv_sec portion of timespec as a 32-bit
number, while overflows in 2106. It also uses the timespec type,
which is safe on 64-bit architectures, but deprecated because
it causes overflows in 2038 elsewhere.
This changes it to timespec64 and printing a 64-bit number for
consistency.

In an effort to remove all instances of 'struct timeval'
from the kernel, I'm changing the powerpc mpic_timer interface
to use plain seconds instead. There is only one user of this
interface, and that doesn't use the microseconds portion, so
the code gets noticeably simpler in the process.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2018-01-19
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) bpf array map HW offload, from Jakub.
2) support for bpf_get_next_key() for LPM map, from Yonghong.
3) test_verifier now runs loaded programs, from Alexei.
4) xdp cpumap monitoring, from Jesper.
5) variety of tests, cleanups and small x64 JIT optimization, from Daniel.
6) user space can now retrieve HW JITed program, from Jiong.
Note there is a minor conflict between Russell's arm32 JIT fixes
and removal of bpf_jit_enable variable by Daniel which should
be resolved by keeping Russell's comment and removing that variable.

Commit bacf6b499e11 ("x86/mm: Use a struct to reduce parameters for SME
PGD mapping") moved some parameters into a structure.
The structure was large enough to trigger the stack protection canary in
sme_encrypt_kernel which doesn't work this early, causing reboots.
Mark sme_encrypt_kernel appropriately to not use the canary.

On alpha, a process will crash if it attempts to start a thread and a
signal is delivered at the same time. The crash can be reproduced with
this program: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-11/msg00473.html
The reason for the crash is this:
* we call the clone syscall
* we go to the function copy_process
* copy process calls copy_thread_tls, it is a wrapper around copy_thread
* copy_thread sets the tls pointer: childti->pcb.unique = regs->r20
* copy_thread sets regs->r20 to zero
* we go back to copy_process
* copy process checks "if (signal_pending(current))" and returns
-ERESTARTNOINTR
* the clone syscall is restarted, but this time, regs->r20 is zero, so
the new thread is created with zero tls pointer
* the new thread crashes in start_thread when attempting to access tls
The comment in the code says that setting the register r20 is some
compatibility with OSF/1. But OSF/1 doesn't use the CLONE_SETTLS flag, so
we don't have to zero r20 if CLONE_SETTLS is set. This patch fixes the bug
by zeroing regs->r20 only if CLONE_SETTLS is not set.

Since version 4.9, the kernel automatically breaks printk calls into
multiple newlines unless pr_cont is used. Fix the alpha stacktrace code,
so that it prints stack trace in four columns, as it was initially
intended.

pci_get_bus_and_slot() is restrictive such that it assumes domain=0 as
where a PCI device is present. This restricts the device drivers to be
reused for other domain numbers.
Use pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() with a domain number of 0 where we can't
extract the domain number. Other places, use the actual domain number from
the device.
