2021-02-05kallsyms: fix nonconverging kallsyms table with lldArnd Bergmann
ARM randconfig builds with lld sometimes show a build failure from kallsyms: Inconsistent kallsyms data Try make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 as a workaround The problem is the veneers/thunks getting added by the linker extend the symbol table, which in turn leads to more veneers being needed, so it may take a few extra iterations to converge. This bug has been fixed multiple times before, but comes back every time a new symbol name is used. lld uses a different set of identifiers from ld.bfd, so the additional ones need to be added as well. I looked through the sources and found that arm64 and mips define similar prefixes, so I'm adding those as well, aside from the ones I observed. I'm not sure about powerpc64, which seems to already be handled through a section match, but if it comes back, the "__long_branch_" and "__plt_" prefixes would have to get added as well.

2021-02-01kbuild: remove PYTHON variableMasahiro Yamada
Python retired in 2020, and some distributions do not provide the 'python' command any more. As in commit 51839e29cb59 ("scripts: switch explicitly to Python 3"), we need to use more specific 'python3' to invoke scripts even if they are written in a way compatible with both Python 2 and 3. This commit removes the variable 'PYTHON', and switches the existing users to 'PYTHON3'. BTW, PEP 394 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/) is a helpful material.

Changes the final fallback path in the ncurses locator for mconf to support host compilers with a non-default sysroot. This is similar to the hardcoded search for ncurses under '/usr/include', but can support compilers that keep their default header and library directories elsewhere.

The command "make coccicheck C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck" results in the error: ./scripts/coccicheck: line 65: -1: shift count out of range This happens because every time the C variable is specified, the shell arguments need to be "shifted" in order to take only the last argument, which is the C file to test. These shell arguments mostly comprise flags that have been set in the Makefile. However, when coccicheck is specified in the make command as a rule, the number of shell arguments is zero, thus passing the invalid value -1 to the shift command, resulting in an error. Modify coccicheck to print correct usage of make coccicheck so as to avoid the error. Signed-off-by: Sumera Priyadarsini <sylphrenadin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@inria.fr>

2020-12-21genksyms: Ignore module scoped _Static_assert()Marco Elver
The C11 _Static_assert() keyword may be used at module scope, and we need to teach genksyms about it to not abort with an error. We currently have a growing number of static_assert() (but also direct usage of _Static_assert()) users at module scope: git grep -E '^_Static_assert\(|^static_assert\(' | grep -v '^tools' | wc -l 135 More recently, when enabling CONFIG_MODVERSIONS with CONFIG_KCSAN, we observe a number of warnings: WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "<..all kcsan symbols..>" [vmlinux] [...] When running a preprocessed source through 'genksyms -w' a number of syntax errors point at usage of static_assert()s. In the case of kernel/kcsan/encoding.h, new static_assert()s had been introduced which used expressions that appear to cause genksyms to not even be able to recover from the syntax error gracefully (as it appears was the case previously). Therefore, make genksyms ignore all _Static_assert() and the contained expression. With the fix, usage of _Static_assert() no longer cause "syntax error" all over the kernel, and the above modpost warnings for KCSAN are gone, too.

2020-12-21modpost: refactor error handling and clarify error/fatal differenceMasahiro Yamada
We have 3 log functions. fatal() is special because it lets modpost bail out immediately. The difference between warn() and error() is the only prefix parts ("WARNING:" vs "ERROR:"). In my understanding, the expected handling of error() is to propagate the return code of the function to the exit code of modpost, as check_exports() etc. already does. This is a good manner in general because we should display as many error messages as possible in a single run of modpost. What is annoying about fatal() is that it kills modpost at the first error. People would need to run Kbuild again and again until they fix all errors. But, unfortunately, people tend to do: "This case should not be allowed. Let's replace warn() with fatal()." One of the reasons is probably it is tedious to manually hoist the error code to the main() function. This commit refactors error() so any single call for it automatically makes modpost return the error code. I also added comments in modpost.h for warn(), error(), and fatal(). Please use fatal() only when you have a strong reason to do so. For example: - Memory shortage (i.e. malloc() etc. has failed) - The ELF file is broken, and there is no point to continue parsing - Something really odd has happened For general coding errors, please use error().

2020-12-21modpost: rename merror() to error()Masahiro Yamada
The log function names, warn(), merror(), fatal() are inconsistent. Commit 2a11665945d5 ("kbuild: distinguish between errors and warnings in modpost") intentionally chose merror() to avoid the conflict with the library function error(). See man page of error(3). But, we are already causing the conflict with warn() because it is also a library function. See man page of warn(3). err() would be a problem for the same reason. The common technique to work around name conflicts is to use macros. For example: /* in a header */ #define error(fmt, ...) __error(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) #define warn(fmt, ...) __warn(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) /* function definition */ void __error(const char *fmt, ...) { <our implementation> } void __warn(const char *fmt, ...) { <our implementation> } In this way, we can implement our own warn() and error(), still we can include <error.h> and <err.h> with no problem. And, commit 93c95e526a4e ("modpost: rework and consolidate logging interface") already did that. Since the log functions are all macros, we can use error() without causing "conflicting types" errors.

2020-12-15checkpatch: add fix and improve warning msg for non-standard signatureAditya Srivastava
Currently checkpatch warns for BAD_SIGN_OFF on non-standard signature styles. A large number of these warnings occur because of typo mistakes in signature tags. An evaluation over v4.13..v5.8 showed that out of 539 warnings due to non-standard signatures, 87 are due to typo mistakes. Following are the standard signature tags which are often incorrectly used, along with their individual counts of incorrect use (over v4.13..v5.8): Reviewed-by: 42 Signed-off-by: 25 Reported-by: 6 Acked-by: 4 Tested-by: 4 Suggested-by: 4 Provide a fix by calculating levenshtein distance for the signature tag with all the standard signatures and suggest a fix with a signature, whose edit distance is less than or equal to 2 with the misspelled signature. Out of the 86 mispelled signatures fixed with this approach, 85 were found to be good corrections and 1 was bad correction. Following was found to be a bad correction: Tweeted-by (count: 1) => Tested-by Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201128204333.7054-1-yashsri421@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Aditya Srivastava <yashsri421@gmail.com> Acked-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Lukas Bulwahn <lukas.bulwahn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2020-12-15checkpatch: avoid COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE warning for signature tagsAditya Srivastava
Currently checkpatch warns us for long lines in commits even for signature tag lines. Generally these lines exceed the 75-character limit because of: 1) long names and long email address 2) some comments on scoped review and acknowledgement, i.e., for a dedicated pointer on what was reported by the identity in 'Reported-by' 3) some additional comments on CC: stable@vger.org tags Exclude signature tag lines from this class of warning. There were 1896 COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE warnings in v5.6..v5.8 before this patch application and 1879 afterwards. A quick manual check found all the dropped warnings related to signature tags.

2020-12-15checkpatch: improve email parsingDwaipayan Ray
checkpatch doesn't report warnings for many common mistakes in emails. Some of which are trailing commas and incorrect use of email comments. At the same time several false positives are reported due to incorrect handling of mail comments. The most common of which is due to the pattern: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # X.X Improve email parsing in checkpatch. Some general email rules are defined: - Multiple name comments should not be allowed. - Comments inside address should not be allowed. - In general comments should be enclosed within parentheses. Relaxation is given to comments beginning with #. - Stable addresses should not begin with a name. - Comments in stable addresses should begin only with a #. Improvements to parsing: - Detect and report unexpected content after email. - Quoted names are excluded from comment parsing. - Trailing dots, commas or quotes in email are removed during formatting. Correspondingly a BAD_SIGN_OFF warning is emitted. - Improperly quoted email like '"name <address>"' are now warned about. In addition, added fixes for all the possible rules.

2020-12-15checkpatch: extend attributes check to handle more patternsDwaipayan Ray
It is generally preferred that the macros from include/linux/compiler_attributes.h are used, unless there is a reason not to. checkpatch currently checks __attribute__ for each of packed, aligned, section, printf, scanf, and weak. Other declarations in compiler_attributes.h are not handled. Add a generic test to check the presence of such attributes. Some attributes require more specific handling and are kept separate. Also add fixes to the generic attributes check to substitute the correct conversions. New attributes which are now handled are: __always_inline__ __assume_aligned__(a, ## __VA_ARGS__) __cold__ __const__ __copy__(symbol) __designated_init__ __externally_visible__ __gnu_inline__ __malloc__ __mode__(x) __no_caller_saved_registers__ __noclone__ __noinline__ __nonstring__ __noreturn__ __pure__ __unused__ __used__ Declarations which contain multiple attributes like __attribute__((__packed__, __cold__)) are also handled except when proper conversions for one or more attributes of the list cannot be determined.

2020-12-15checkpatch: prefer static const declarationsJoe Perches
There are about 100,000 uses of 'static const <type>' but about 400 uses of 'static <type> const' in the kernel where type is not a pointer. The kernel almost always uses "static const" over "const static" as there is a compiler warning for that declaration style. But there is no compiler warning for "static <type> const". So add a checkpatch warning for the atypical declaration uses of. const static <type> <foo> and static <type> const <foo> For example: $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --emacs --quiet --nosummary -types=static_const arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c:75: WARNING: Move const after static - use 'static const u8' #75: FILE: arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c:75: + static u8 const rcon[] = { Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/4b863be68e679546b40d50b97a4a806c03056a1c.camel@perches.com Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
