Some code pathes, especially the low level entry code, must be protected
against instrumentation for various reasons:
- Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86.
- With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it.
Having a dedicated section for such code allows to validate with tooling
that no unsafe functions are invoked.
Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark
functions. noinstr implies notrace. Kprobes will gain a section check
later.
Provide also a set of markers: instrumentation_begin()/end()
These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls
into regular instrumentable text section as safe.
The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is
enabled as the end marker emits a NOP to prevent the compiler from merging
the annotation points. This means the objtool verification requires a
kernel compiled with this option.

Kbuild supports the infrastructure to build host programs, but there
was no support to build userspace programs for the target architecture
(i.e. the same architecture as the kernel).
Sam Ravnborg worked on this in 2014 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/13/154),
but it was not merged. One problem at that time was, there was no good way
to know whether $(CC) can link standalone programs. In fact, pre-built
kernel.org toolchains [1] are often used for building the kernel, but they
do not provide libc.
Now, we can handle this cleanly because the compiler capability is
evaluated at the Kconfig time. If $(CC) cannot link standalone programs,
the relevant options are hidden by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK'.
The implementation just mimics scripts/Makefile.host
The userspace programs are compiled with the same flags as the host
programs. In addition, it uses -m32 or -m64 if it is found in
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS).
This new syntax has two usecases.
- Sample programs
Several userspace programs under samples/ include UAPI headers
installed in usr/include. Most of them were previously built for
the host architecture just to use the 'hostprogs' syntax.
However, 'make headers' always works for the target architecture.
This caused the arch mismatch in cross-compiling. To fix this
distortion, sample code should be built for the target architecture.
- Bpfilter
net/bpfilter/Makefile compiles bpfilter_umh as the user mode helper,
and embeds it into the kernel. Currently, it overrides HOSTCC with
CC to use the 'hostprogs' syntax. This hack should go away.

cmd_dtc takes the additional parameter $(2) to select the target
format, dtb or yaml. This makes things complicated when it is used
with cmd_and_fixdep and if_changed_rule. I actually stumbled on this.
See commit 3d4b2238684a ("kbuild: fix DT binding schema rule again to
avoid needless rebuilds").
Extract the suffix part of the target instead of passing the parameter.
Fortunately, this works for both $(obj)/%.dtb and $(obj)/%.dt.yaml .

scripts/mkcompile_h runs $(CC) just for getting the version string.
Reuse CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT for optimization.
For GCC, this slightly changes the version string. I do not think it
is a big deal as we do not have the defined format for LINUX_COMPILER.
In fact, the recent commit 4dcc9a88448a ("kbuild: mkcompile_h:

This omits system headers from the generated header dependency.
System headers are not updated unless you upgrade the compiler. Nor do
they contain CONFIG options, so fixdep does not need to parse them.
Having said that, the effect of this optimization will be quite small
because the kernel code generally does not include system headers
except <stdarg.h>. Host programs include a lot of system headers,
but there are not so many in the kernel tree.
At first, keeping system headers in .*.cmd files might be useful to
detect the compiler update, but there is no guarantee that <stdarg.h>
is included from every file. So, I implemented a more reliable way in
the previous commit.

The code block surrounded by 'if' ... 'endif' is reduced into if_stmt,
which is accepted in the 'choice' context. Therefore, you can write any
statements within a choice block by wrapping 'if y' ... 'end'.
For example, you can create a menu inside a choice, like follows:
---------------->8----------------
choice
prompt "choice"
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
if y
menu "strange menu"
config C
bool "C"
endmenu
endif
endchoice
---------------->8----------------
I want to change such a weird structure into a syntax error.
In fact, the USB gadget Kconfig had used nested 'choice' for no good
reason until commit df8df5e4bc37 ("usb: get rid of 'choice' for
legacy gadget drivers") killed it.
I think the 'source' inside 'choice' is on the fence. It is at least
gramatically sensible as long as the included file contains only
bool/tristate configs. However, it makes the code unreadable, and people
tend to forget the fact that the file is included from the choice
block. Commit 10e5e6c24963 ("usb: gadget: move choice ... endchoice to
legacy/Kconfig") got rid of the only usecase.
Going forward, you can only use 'config', 'comment', and 'if' inside
'choice'. This also recursively applies to 'if' blocks inside 'choice'.

ENOTSUPP often feels like the right error code to use, but it's
in fact not a standard Unix error. E.g.:

Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: module 'errno' has no attribute 'ENOTSUPP'
There were numerous commits converting the uses back to EOPNOTSUPP
but in some cases we are stuck with the high error code for backward

Two helpers bpf_seq_printf and bpf_seq_write, are added for
writing data to the seq_file buffer.
bpf_seq_printf supports common format string flag/width/type
fields so at least I can get identical results for
netlink and ipv6_route targets.
For bpf_seq_printf and bpf_seq_write, return value -EOVERFLOW
specifically indicates a write failure due to overflow, which
means the object will be repeated in the next bpf invocation
if object collection stays the same. Note that if the object
collection is changed, depending how collection traversal is
done, even if the object still in the collection, it may not
be visited.
For bpf_seq_printf, format %s, %p{i,I}{4,6} needs to
read kernel memory. Reading kernel memory may fail in
the following two cases:
- invalid kernel address, or
- valid kernel address but requiring a major fault
If reading kernel memory failed, the %s string will be
an empty string and %p{i,I}{4,6} will be all 0.
Not returning error to bpf program is consistent with
what bpf_trace_printk() does for now.
bpf_seq_printf may return -EBUSY meaning that internal percpu
buffer for memory copy of strings or other pointees is
not available. Bpf program can return 1 to indicate it
wants the same object to be repeated. Right now, this should not
happen on no-RT kernels since migrate_disable(), which guards
bpf prog call, calls preempt_disable().

Here, we look for function such as 'netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align', so a '_'
is missing in the regex.
To make sure:
grep -r --include=*.c skbip_a * | wc ==> 0 results
grep -r --include=*.c skb_ip_a * | wc ==> 112 results

Sphinx is very pedantic with respect to blank lines. Sometimes,
in order to make it to properly handle something, we need to
add a blank line. However, currently, any blank line inside a
kernel-doc comment like:
/*
* @foo: bar
*
* foobar
*
* some description
will be considered as if "foobar" was part of the description.
This patch changes kernel-doc behavior. After it, foobar will
be considered as part of the parameter text. The description
will only be considered as such if it starts with:
zero spaces after asterisk:
*foo
one space after asterisk:
* foo
or have a explicit Description section:
* Description:

On a few places, it sometimes need to indicate a negation of a
parameter, like:
!@fshared
This pattern happens, for example, at:
kernel/futex.c
and it is perfectly valid. However, kernel-doc currently
transforms it into:
!**fshared**
This won't do what it would be expected.
Fortunately, fixing the script is a simple matter of storing
the "!" before "@" and adding it after the bold markup, like:
**!fshared**

The pattern @foo->bar() is valid, as it can be used by a
function pointer inside a struct passed as a parameter.
Right now, it causes a warning:
./drivers/firewire/core-transaction.c:606: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string.
In this specific case, the kernel-doc markup is:
/**
* fw_core_remove_address_handler() - unregister an address handler
* @handler: callback
*
* To be called in process context.
*
* When fw_core_remove_address_handler() returns, @handler->callback() is
* guaranteed to not run on any CPU anymore.
*/
With seems valid on my eyes. So, instead of trying to hack
the kernel-doc markup, let's teach it about how to handle
such things. This should likely remove lots of other similar
warnings as well.

Since python 3.3, the recommended way to setup a virtual env is
via "python -m venv".
Set this as a default, if python version is compatible with
such feature.
While here, add more comments to it, as the script is
getting more complex. So, better to add more things, to avoid
accidentally breaking it while improving it.

It seems that Mageia and OpenMandriva will reunite on a single
distribution. In any case, both came from Mandriva. So, it is
close enough to use the same logic.
So, add support for it.
Tested with OpenMandriva 4.1 and with Mageia 7.1.

Currently, with openSUSE Tumbleweed 20200303, it keeps
recommending this forever:
sudo zypper install --no-recommends rsvg-view
This dependency will never be fulfilled there, as the package
now is named as on other distros: rsvg-convert.
So, improve the detection to avoid such issue.

The Arch-linux detection is hit by catting /etc/issue, whose
contents is (nowadays):
Arch Linux \r (\l)
It sounds a little ackward to print such string, so,
instead, let's use the /etc/os-release file, with exists
on lots of distributions and should provide a more reliable
result.
We'll keep the old tests before it, in order to avoid possible
regressions with the other distros, although the new way should
probably work on all the currently supported distributions.

Merge tag 'docs-fixes' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation fixes from Jonathan Corbet:
"A handful of fixes for reasonably obnoxious documentation issues"
* tag 'docs-fixes' of git://git.lwn.net/linux:
scripts: documentation-file-ref-check: Add line break before exit
scripts/kernel-doc: Add missing close-paren in c:function directives
docs: admin-guide: merge sections for the kernel.modprobe sysctl
docs: timekeeping: Use correct prototype for deprecated functions
If you run 'make dtbs_check' without installing the libyaml package,
the error message "dtc needs libyaml ..." is shown.
This should be checked also for 'make dt_binding_check' because dtc
needs to validate *.example.dts extracted from *.yaml files.
It is missing since commit 4f0e3a57d6eb ("kbuild: Add support for DT
binding schema checks"), but this fix-up is applicable only after commit
e10c4321dc1e ("kbuild: allow to run dt_binding_check and dtbs_check
in a single command").
I gave the Fixes tag to the latter in case somebody is interested in
back-porting this.
