git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New feature:
- A new "func-no-repeats" option in tracefs/options directory.
When set the function tracer will detect if the current function
being traced is the same as the previous one, and instead of
recording it, it will keep track of the number of times that the
function is repeated in a row. And when another function is
recorded, it will write a new event that shows the function that
repeated, the number of times it repeated and the time stamp of
when the last repeated function occurred.
Enhancements:
- In order to implement the above "func-no-repeats" option, the ring
buffer timestamp can now give the accurate timestamp of the event
as it is being recorded, instead of having to record an absolute
timestamp for all events. This helps the histogram code which no
longer needs to waste ring buffer space.
- New validation logic to make sure all trace events that access
dereferenced pointers do so in a safe way, and will warn otherwise.
Fixes:
- No longer limit the PIDs of tasks that are recorded for
"saved_cmdlines" to PID_MAX_DEFAULT (32768), as systemd now allows
for a much larger range. This caused the mapping of PIDs to the
task names to be dropped for all tasks with a PID greater than
32768.
- Change trace_clock_global() to never block. This caused a deadlock.
Clean ups:
- Typos, prototype fixes, and removing of duplicate or unused code.
- Better management of ftrace_page allocations"

There is a standard idiom for "if 'ret' holds an error, return it":
return ret < 0 ? ret : 0;
Developers prefer to keep the things as they are because stylistic
change to "return min(ret, 0);" breaks readability.
Let's suppress automatic generation for this type of patches.

Kfree.cocci only supports org and report mode, so the *s (used for

The IRQF_ONESHOT should be present for threaded IRQ using default
primary handler. However intetrupt of many child devices, e.g. children
of MFD, is nested thus the IRQF_ONESHOT is not needed. The coccinelle
message about error misleads submitters and reviewers about the severity
of the issue, so make it a warning and mention possible false positive.

Skip patches generation for structs with a single field.
Changing a zero-length array to a flexible array member in a struct
with no named members breaks the compilation. However, reporting
such cases is still valuable, e.g. commit 637464c59e0b
("ACPI: NFIT: Fix flexible_array.cocci warnings").

LANG gives a weak default to each LC_* in case it is not explicitly
defined. LC_ALL, if set, overrides all other LC_* variables.
LANG < LC_CTYPE, LC_COLLATE, LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, ... < LC_ALL
This is why documentation such as [1] suggests to set LC_ALL in build
scripts to get the deterministic result.
LANG=C is not strong enough to override LC_* that may be set by end
users.

We maintain .gitignore and Makefiles so build artifacts are properly
ignored by Git, and cleaned up by 'make clean'. However, the code is
always changing; generated files are often moved to another directory,
or removed when they become unnecessary. Such garbage files tend to be
left over in the source tree because people usually git-pull without
cleaning the tree.
This is not only the noise for 'git status', but also a build issue
in some cases.
One solution is to remove a stale file like commit 223c24a7dba9 ("kbuild:
Automatically remove stale <linux/version.h> file") did. Such workaround
should be removed after a while, but we forget about that if we scatter
the workaround code in random places.
So, this commit adds a new script to collect cleanings of stale files.
As a start point, move the code in arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
into this script.

cmd_shipped uses 'cat' instead of 'cp' for copying a file. The reason
is explained in the commit [1], but it was in the pre-git era.
$ touch a
$ chmod -w a
$ cp a b
$ cp a b
cp: cannot create regular file 'b': Permission denied
Add comments so that you can see the reason without looking into
the history.

checkdeclares: find struct declared more than once. Inspired by
checkincludes.pl.
This script checks for duplicate struct declares. Note that this will not
take into consideration macros, so you should run this only if you know
you do have real dups and do not have them under #ifdef's. You could also
just review the results.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:
- bpf:
- allow bpf programs calling kernel functions (initially to
reuse TCP congestion control implementations)
- enable task local storage for tracing programs - remove the
need to store per-task state in hash maps, and allow tracing
programs access to task local storage previously added for
BPF_LSM

all map elements in a more robust and easier to verify fashion
- sockmap: support UDP and cross-protocol BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT
redirection
- lpm: add support for batched ops in LPM trie
- add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support - mostly to allow use of BTF on
s390 which has floats in its headers files

parsing scripts we already employ for bpf-helpers
- libbpf, bpftool: support static linking of BPF ELF files
- improve support for encapsulation of L2 packets
- xdp: restructure redirect actions to avoid a runtime lookup,
improving performance by 4-8% in microbenchmarks
- xsk: build skb by page (aka generic zerocopy xmit) - improve
performance of software AF_XDP path by 33% for devices which don't
need headers in the linear skb part (e.g. virtio)

next-hops group changes (incl. offload for mlxsw)
- ipv6: segment routing: add support for IPv4 decapsulation
- icmp: add support for RFC 8335 extended PROBE messages
- inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation
- tcp: deal better with delayed TX completions - make sure we don't
give up on fast TCP retransmissions only because driver is slow in
reporting that it completed transmitting the original
- tcp: reorder tcp_congestion_ops for better cache locality
- mptcp:
- add sockopt support for common TCP options
- add support for common TCP msg flags
- include multiple address ids in RM_ADDR

retpoline overhead on VLAN and TEB GRO
- use less memory for sysctls, add a new sysctl type, to allow using
u8 instead of "int" and "long" and shrink networking sysctls

before handing them off to routing, bridge, OvS, etc.
- allow specifing ifindex when device is moved to another namespace
- netfilter:

Pull x86 updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Turn the stack canary into a normal __percpu variable on 32-bit which
gets rid of the LAZY_GS stuff and a lot of code.
- Add an insn_decode() API which all users of the instruction decoder
should preferrably use. Its goal is to keep the details of the
instruction decoder away from its users and simplify and streamline
how one decodes insns in the kernel. Convert its users to it.
- kprobes improvements and fixes
- Set the maximum DIE per package variable on Hygon
- Rip out the dynamic NOP selection and simplify all the machinery
around selecting NOPs. Use the simplified NOPs in objtool now too.
- Add Xeon Sapphire Rapids to list of CPUs that support PPIN
- Simplify the retpolines by folding the entire thing into an
alternative now that objtool can handle alternatives with stack ops.
Then, have objtool rewrite the call to the retpoline with the
alternative which then will get patched at boot time.
- Document Intel uarch per models in intel-family.h
- Make Sub-NUMA Clustering topology the default and Cluster-on-Die the
exception on Intel.

Pull CFI on arm64 support from Kees Cook:
"This builds on last cycle's LTO work, and allows the arm64 kernels to
be built with Clang's Control Flow Integrity feature. This feature has
happily lived in Android kernels for almost 3 years[1], so I'm excited
to have it ready for upstream.
The wide diffstat is mainly due to the treewide fixing of mismatched
list_sort prototypes. Other things in core kernel are to address
various CFI corner cases. The largest code portion is the CFI runtime
implementation itself (which will be shared by all architectures
implementing support for CFI). The arm64 pieces are Acked by arm64
maintainers rather than coming through the arm64 tree since carrying
this tree over there was going to be awkward.
CFI support for x86 is still under development, but is pretty close.
There are a handful of corner cases on x86 that need some improvements
to Clang and objtool, but otherwise works well.

gain a working function tracer, adjust the name of the mcount symbol for
older versions of clang in mount.S and recordmcount.pl.

Currently, clang LTO built vmlinux won't work with pahole.
LTO introduced cross-cu dwarf tag references and broke
current pahole model which handles one cu as a time.
The solution is to merge all cu's as one pahole cu as in [1].
We would like to do this merging only if cross-cu dwarf
references happens. The LTO build mode is a pretty good
indication for that.
In earlier version of this patch ([2]), clang flag
-grecord-gcc-switches is proposed to add to compilation flags
so pahole could detect "-flto" and then merging cu's.
This will increate the binary size of 1% without LTO though.
Arnaldo suggested to use a note to indicate the vmlinux
is built with LTO. Such a cheap way to get whether the vmlinux
is built with LTO or not helps pahole but is also useful
for tracing as LTO may inline/delete/demote global functions,
promote static functions, etc.
So this patch added an elfnote with a new type LINUX_ELFNOTE_LTO_INFO.
The owner of the note is "Linux".
With gcc 8.4.1 and clang trunk, without LTO, I got
$ readelf -n vmlinux
Displaying notes found in: .notes
Owner Data size Description
...
Linux 0x00000004 func
description data: 00 00 00 00
...
With "readelf -x ".notes" vmlinux", I can verify the above "func"
with type code 0x101.
With clang thin-LTO, I got the same as above except the following:
description data: 01 00 00 00
which indicates the vmlinux is built with LTO.

scripts/Makefile.modsign is a subset of scripts/Makefile.modinst,
and duplicates the code. Let's merge them.
By the way, you do not need to run 'make modules_sign' explicitly
because modules are signed as a part of 'make modules_install' when
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=y. If CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n, mod_sign_cmd is
set to 'true', so 'make modules_sign' is not functional.
In my understanding, the reason of still keeping this is to handle
corner cases like commit 64178cb62c32 ("builddeb: fix stripped module
signatures if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO and CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL are set").

Nathan reports that the mips defconfig emits the following warning:
WARNING: modpost: Symbol info of vmlinux is missing. Unresolved symbol check will be entirely skipped.
This false-positive happens when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled,
but no CONFIG option is set to 'm'.
Commit a0590473c5e6 ("nfs: fix PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT Kconfig default")
turned the last 'm' into 'y' for the mips defconfig, and uncovered
this issue.
In this case, the module feature itself is enabled, but we have no
module to build. As a result, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS drops all the
instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL. Then, modpost wrongly assumes vmlinux is
missing because vmlinux.symvers is empty. (As another false-positive
case, you can create a module that does not use any symbol of vmlinux).
The current behavior is to entirely suppress the unresolved symbol
warnings when vmlinux is missing just because there are too many.
I found the origin of this code in the historical git tree. [1]
If this is a matter of noisiness, I think modpost can display the
first 10 warnings, and the number of suppressed warnings at the end.
You will get a bit noisier logs when you run 'make modules' without
vmlinux, but such warnings are better to show because you never know
the resulting modules are actually loadable or not.
This commit changes the following:
- If any of input *.symver files is missing, pass -w option to let
the module build keep going with warnings instead of errors.
- If there are too many (10+) unresolved symbol warnings, show only
the first 10, and also the number of suppressed warnings.

The -w option is meaningless for the first pass of modpost (vmlinux.o).
We know there are unresolved symbols in vmlinux.o, hence we skip
check_exports() and other checks when mod->is_vmlinux is set.
See the following part in the for-loop.
if (mod->is_vmlinux || mod->from_dump)
continue;

The external module build shows the following warning if Module.symvers
is missing in the kernel tree.
WARNING: Symbol version dump "Module.symvers" is missing.
Modules may not have dependencies or modversions.
I think this is an important heads-up because the resulting modules may
not work as expected. This happens when you did not build the entire
kernel tree, for example, you might have prepared the minimal setups
for external modules by 'make defconfig && make modules_preapre'.
A problem is that 'make modules' creates Module.symvers even without
vmlinux. In this case, that warning is suppressed since Module.symvers
already exists in spite of its incomplete content.
The incomplete (i.e. invalid) Module.symvers should not be created.
This commit changes the second pass of modpost to dump symbols into
modules-only.symvers. The final Module.symvers is created by
concatenating vmlinux.symvers and modules-only.symvers if both exist.
Module.symvers is supposed to collect symbols from both vmlinux and
modules. It might be a bit confusing, and I am not quite sure if it
is an official interface, but presumably it is difficult to rename it
because some tools (e.g. kmod) parse it.

Documentation/process/changes.rst defines the minimum assembler version
(binutils version), but we have never checked it in the build time.
Kbuild never invokes 'as' directly because all assembly files in the
kernel tree are *.S, hence must be preprocessed. I do not expect
raw assembly source files (*.s) would be added to the kernel tree.
Therefore, we always use $(CC) as the assembler driver, and commit
aa824e0c962b ("kbuild: remove AS variable") removed 'AS'. However,
we are still interested in the version of the assembler acting behind.
As usual, the --version option prints the version string.
$ as --version | head -n 1
GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
But, we do not have $(AS). So, we can add the -Wa prefix so that
$(CC) passes --version down to the backing assembler.
$ gcc -Wa,--version | head -n 1
gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
OK, we need to input something to satisfy gcc.
$ gcc -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1

The combination of Clang and GNU assembler works in the same way:
$ clang -no-integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
Clang with the integrated assembler fails like this:
$ clang -integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
clang: error: unsupported argument '--version' to option 'Wa,'
For the last case, checking the error message is fragile. If the
proposal for -Wa,--version support [1] is accepted, this may not be
even an error in the future.
One easy way is to check if -integrated-as is present in the passed
arguments. We did not pass -integrated-as to CLANG_FLAGS before, but
we can make it explicit.
Nathan pointed out -integrated-as is the default for all of the
architectures/targets that the kernel cares about, but it goes
along with "explicit is better than implicit" policy. [2]
With all this in my mind, I implemented scripts/as-version.sh to
check the assembler version in Kconfig time.
$ scripts/as-version.sh gcc
GNU 23501
$ scripts/as-version.sh clang -no-integrated-as
GNU 23501
$ scripts/as-version.sh clang -integrated-as
LLVM 0

The kernel build uses various tools, many of which are provided by the
same software suite, for example, LLVM and Binutils.
When you raise the minimum version of Clang/LLVM, you need to update
clang_min_version in scripts/cc-version.sh and also lld_min_version in
scripts/ld-version.sh.
Kbuild can handle CC=clang and LD=ld.lld independently, but it does not
make much sense to maintain their versions separately.
Let's create a central place of minimum tool versions so you do not need
to touch multiple files. scripts/min-tool-version.sh prints the minimum
version of the given tool.

Move $(strip ...) to the callee from the callers of suffix-search. It
shortens the code slightly. Adding a space after a comma will not be
a matter. I also dropped parentheses from single character variables.

I think multi-obj-* is clearer, and more consistent with real-obj-*.
Rename as follows:
multi-used-y -> multi-obj-y
multi-used-m -> multi-obj-m
multi-used -> multi-obj-ym

The patch adding CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP revealed a small defect in the
build system: link-vmlinux.sh takes decisions based on CONFIG_*
options, but changing one of those does not always lead to vmlinux
being linked again.
For most of the CONFIG_* knobs referenced previously, this has
probably been hidden by those knobs also affecting some object file,
hence indirectly also vmlinux.
But CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is only handled inside link-vmlinux.sh, and
changing CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP=n to CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP=y does not cause
the build system to re-link (and hence have vmlinux.map
emitted). Since that map file is mostly a debugging aid, this is
merely a nuisance which is easily worked around by just deleting
vmlinux and building again.
But one could imagine other (possibly future) CONFIG options that
actually do affect the vmlinux binary but which are not captured
through some object file dependency.
To fix this, make link-vmlinux.sh emit a .vmlinux.d file in the same
format as the dependency files generated by gcc, and apply the fixdep
logic to that. I've tested that this correctly works with both in-tree
and out-of-tree builds.
