If buf[-1] just happens to hold the byte 0x0A, then nread can wrap around
to (size_t)-1, leading to invalid memory accesses.
This has caused segmentation faults when trying to build the latest
kernel snapshots for i686 in Fedora:

It may not be the actual real stable mailing list address, but the
stable scripts to actually pick up on the traditional way to mark stable
patches.
There are also reasons to explicitly avoid using the actual mailing list
address, since security patches with embargo dates generally do want the
stable marking, but don't want tools etc to mistakenly send the patch
out to the mailing list early.
So don't warn for things that are still actively used and explicitly
supported.

The line numers for if-entries in the menu tree are off by one or more
lines which is confusing when debugging for correctness of unrelated changes.
According to the git log, commit a02f0570ae201c49 (kconfig: improve
error handling in the parser) was the last one that changed that part
of the parser and replaced
"if_entry: T_IF expr T_EOL"
by
"if_entry: T_IF expr nl"
but the commit message does not state why this has been done.
When reverting that part of the commit, only the line numers are
corrected (checked with cdebug = DEBUG_PARSE in zconf.y), otherwise
the menu tree remains unchanged (checked with zconfdump() enabled in
conf.c).
An example for the corrected line numbers:
drivers/soc/Kconfig:15:source drivers/soc/tegra/Kconfig
drivers/soc/tegra/Kconfig:4:if
drivers/soc/tegra/Kconfig:6:if

When building a 64-bit 4.18-rc1 kernel with a 32-bit userland, I
noticed that stack protection was silently disabled. Adding -m64 in
gcc-x86_64-has-stack-protector.sh fixed that, similar to what has been
noticed in commit 2a61f4747eea ("stack-protector: test compiler
capability in Kconfig and drop AUTO mode") for
gcc-x86_32-has-stack-protector.sh.

Run scripts/gcc-plugin.sh from Kconfig so that users can enable
GCC_PLUGINS only when the compiler supports building plugins.
Kconfig defines a new symbol, PLUGIN_HOSTCC. This will contain
the compiler (g++ or gcc) used for building plugins, or empty
if the plugin can not be supported at all.
This allows us to remove all ugly testing in Makefile.gcc-plugins.

As Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt notes, 'select' should be
be used with care - it forces a lower limit of another symbol, ignoring
the dependency. Currently, KCOV can select GCC_PLUGINS even if arch
does not select HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS. This could cause the unmet direct
dependency.
Now that Kconfig can test compiler capability, let's handle this in a
more sophisticated way.
There are two ways to enable KCOV; use the compiler that natively
supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc, or build the SANCOV plugin if
the compiler has ability to build GCC plugins. Hence, the correct
dependency for KCOV is:
depends on CC_HAS_SANCOV_TRACE_PC || GCC_PLUGINS
You do not need to build the SANCOV plugin if the compiler already
supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc. Hence, the select should be:
select GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV if !CC_HAS_SANCOV_TRACE_PC
With this, GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV is selected only when necessary, so
scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins can be cleaner.
I also cleaned up Kconfig and scripts/Makefile.kcov as well.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging
Pull staging/IIO updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big staging and IIO driver update for 4.18-rc1.
It was delayed as I wanted to make sure the final driver deletions did
not cause any major merge issues, and all now looks good.
There are a lot of patches here, just over 1000. The diffstat summary
shows the major changes here:
1007 files changed, 16828 insertions(+), 227770 deletions(-)
Because of this, we might be close to shrinking the overall kernel
source code size for two releases in a row.
There was loads of work in this release cycle, primarily:
- tons of ks7010 driver cleanups
- lots of mt7621 driver fixes and cleanups
- most driver cleanups
- wilc1000 fixes and cleanups
- lots and lots of IIO driver cleanups and new additions
- debugfs cleanups for all staging drivers
- lots of other staging driver cleanups and fixes, the shortlog has
the full details.
but the big user-visable things here are the removal of 3 chunks of
code:
- ncpfs and ipx were removed on schedule, no one has cared about this
code since it moved to staging last year, and if it needs to come
back, it can be reverted.
- lustre file system is removed.
I've ranted at the lustre developers about once a year for the past
5 years, with no real forward progress at all to clean things up
and get the code into the "real" part of the kernel.
Given that the lustre developers continue to work on an external
tree and try to port those changes to the in-kernel tree every once
in a while, this whole thing really really is not working out at
all. So I'm deleting it so that the developers can spend the time
working in their out-of-tree location and get things cleaned up
properly to get merged into the tree correctly at a later date.
Because of these file removals, you will have merge issues on some of
these files (2 in the ipx code, 1 in the ncpfs code, and 1 in the
atomisp driver). Just delete those files, it's a simple merge :)
All of this has been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems"

Move the test for -fstack-protector(-strong) option to Kconfig.
If the compiler does not support the option, the corresponding menu
is automatically hidden. If STRONG is not supported, it will fall
back to REGULAR. If REGULAR is not supported, it will be disabled.
This means, AUTO is implicitly handled by the dependency solver of
Kconfig, hence removed.
I also turned the 'choice' into only two boolean symbols. The use of
'choice' is not a good idea here, because all of all{yes,mod,no}config
would choose the first visible value, while we want allnoconfig to
disable as many features as possible.
X86 has additional shell scripts in case the compiler supports those
options, but generates broken code. I added CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR
to test this. I had to add -m32 to gcc-x86_32-has-stack-protector.sh
to make it work correctly.

We're already using a union of many fields here, so stop abusing the
_mapcount and make page_type its own field. That implies renaming some of
the machinery that creates PageBuddy, PageBalloon and PageKmemcg; bring
back the PG_buddy, PG_balloon and PG_kmemcg names.
As suggested by Kirill, make page_type a bitmask. Because it starts out
life as -1 (thanks to sharing the storage with _mapcount), setting a page
flag means clearing the appropriate bit. This gives us space for probably
twenty or so extra bits (depending how paranoid we want to be about
_mapcount underflow).

The Lustre filesystem has been in the kernel tree for over 5 years now.
While it has been an endless source of enjoyment for new kernel
developers learning how to do basic codingstyle cleanups, as well as an
semi-entertaining source of bewilderment from the vfs developers any
time they have looked into the codebase to try to figure out how to port
their latest api changes to this filesystem, it has not really moved
forward into the "this is in shape to get out of staging" despite many
half-completed attempts.
And getting code out of staging is the main goal of that portion of the
kernel tree. Code should not stagnate and it feels like having this
code in staging is only causing the development cycle of the filesystem
to take longer than it should. There is a whole separate out-of-tree
copy of this codebase where the developers work on it, and then random
changes are thrown over the wall at staging at some later point in time.
This dual-tree development model has never worked, and the state of this
codebase is proof of that.
So, let's just delete the whole mess. Now the lustre developers can go
off and work in their out-of-tree codebase and not have to worry about
providing valid changelog entries and breaking their patches up into
logical pieces. They can take the time they have spend doing those
types of housekeeping chores and get the codebase into a much better
shape, and it can be submitted for inclusion into the real part of the
kernel tree when ready.

Merge faddr2line updates from Josh Poimboeuf:
- revert faddr2line's default output to its original non-code-listing
output, and make the code listing an optional feature
- give faddr2line a real maintainer, so get_maintainer.pl will actually

MAINTAINERS: add Josh Poimboeuf as faddr2line maintainer
scripts/faddr2line: make the new code listing format optional
|
|
Commit 6870c0165feaa5 ("scripts/faddr2line: show the code context")
radically altered the output format of the faddr2line tool. And while
the new list output format might have merit it broke my vim usage and
was hard to read.
Make the new format optional; using a '--list' argument and attempt to
make the output slightly easier to read by adding a little whitespace to
separate the different files and explicitly mark the line in question.

The powerpc toolchain can compile combinations of 32/64 bit and
big/little endian, so it's convenient to consider, e.g.,
`CC -m64 -mbig-endian`
To be the C compiler for the purpose of invoking it to build target
artifacts. So overriding the CC variable to include these flags works
for this purpose.
Unfortunately that is not compatible with the way the proposed new
Kconfig macro language will work.
After previous patches in this series, these flags can be carefully
passed in using flags instead.

When using a recursively expanded variable, it is a common mistake
to make circular reference.
For example, Make terminates the following code:
X = $(X)
Y := $(X)
Let's detect the circular expansion in Kconfig, too.
On the other hand, a function that recurses itself is a commonly-used
programming technique. So, Make does not check recursion in the
reference with 'call'. For example, the following code continues
running eternally:
X = $(call X)
Y := $(X)
Kconfig allows circular expansion if one or more arguments are given,
but terminates when the same function is recursively invoked 1000 times,
assuming it is a programming mistake.

Syntax:
$(info,<text>)
$(warning-if,<condition>,<text>)
$(error-if,<condition>,<text)
The 'info' function prints a message to stdout as in Make.
The 'warning-if' and 'error-if' are similar to 'warning' and 'error'
in Make, but take the condition parameter. They are effective only
when the <condition> part is y.
Kconfig does not implement the lazy expansion as used in the 'if'
'and, 'or' functions in Make. In other words, Kconfig does not
support conditional expansion. The unconditional 'error' function
would always terminate the parsing, hence would be useless in Kconfig.
