Currently it is impossible to edit the value of a config symbol with a
prompt longer than (terminal width - 2) characters. dialog_inputbox()
calculates a negative x-offset for the input window and newwin() fails
as this is invalid. It also doesn't check for this failure, so it
busy-loops calling wgetch(NULL) which immediately returns -1.
The additions in the offset calculations also don't match the intended
size of the window.
Limit the window size and calculate the offset similarly to
show_scroll_win().

This allows powerpc64 allyesconfig to build without adding another

This can be solved other ways by directing the linker not to add labels
on branch stubs, or to move kallsyms near the end of the image. The
former is undesirable for debugging/tracing, and the latter is a more

Merge tag 'v4.9-rc4' into sound
Bring in -rc4 patches so I can successfully merge the sound doc changes.
kernel-doc supports documenting struct members "inline" since
a4c6ebede2f9 ("scripts/kernel-doc Allow struct arguments documentation
in struct body"). This requires the inline kernel-doc comments to have
the opening and closing comment markers (/** and */ respectively) on
lines of their own, even for short comments. For example:
/**
* struct foo - struct documentation
*/
struct foo {
/**
* @bar: member documentation
*/
int bar;
};
Add support for one line inline comments:
/**
* struct foo - struct documentation
*/
struct foo {
/** @bar: member documentation */
int bar;
};
Note that mixing of the two in one doc comment is not allowed; either
both comment markers must be on lines of their own, or both must be on
the one line. This limitation keeps both the comments more uniform, and
kernel-doc less complicated.

The "imply" keyword is a weak version of "select" where the target
config symbol can still be turned off, avoiding those pitfalls that come
with the "select" keyword.
This is useful e.g. with multiple drivers that want to indicate their
ability to hook into a secondary subsystem while allowing the user to
configure that subsystem out without also having to unset these drivers.
Currently, the same effect can almost be achieved with:
config DRIVER_A
tristate
config DRIVER_B
tristate
config DRIVER_C
tristate
config DRIVER_D
tristate
[...]
config SUBSYSTEM_X
tristate
default DRIVER_A || DRIVER_B || DRIVER_C || DRIVER_D || [...]
This is unwieldy to maintain especially with a large number of drivers.
Furthermore, there is no easy way to restrict the choice for SUBSYSTEM_X
to y or n, excluding m, when some drivers are built-in. The "select"
keyword allows for excluding m, but it excludes n as well. Hence
this "imply" keyword. The above becomes:
config DRIVER_A
tristate
imply SUBSYSTEM_X
config DRIVER_B
tristate
imply SUBSYSTEM_X
[...]
config SUBSYSTEM_X
tristate
This is much cleaner, and way more flexible than "select". SUBSYSTEM_X
can still be configured out, and it can be set as a module when none of
the drivers are configured in or all of them are modular.

Merge fixes for -Wmaybe-uninitialized from Arnd Bergmann:
"It took a while for some patches to make it into mainline through
maintainer trees, but the 28-patch series is now reduced to 10, with
one tiny patch added at the end.
Aside from patches that are no longer required, I did these changes
compared to version 1:
- Dropped "iio: maxim_thermocouple: detect invalid storage size in
read()", which is currently in linux-next as commit 32cb7d27e65d.
This is the only remaining warning I see for a couple of corner
cases (kbuild bot reports it on blackfin, kernelci bot and arm-soc
bot both report it on arm64)
- Dropped "brcmfmac: avoid maybe-uninitialized warning in
brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap", which is currently in net/master merge
pending.
- Dropped two x86 patches, "x86: math-emu: possible uninitialized
variable use" and "x86: mark target address as output in 'insb'
asm" as they do not seem to trigger for a default build, and I got
no feedback on them. Both of these are ancient issues and seem
harmless, I will send them again to the x86 maintainers once the
rest is merged.
- Dropped "rbd: false-postive gcc-4.9 -Wmaybe-uninitialized" based on
feedback from Ilya Dryomov, who already has a different fix queued
up for v4.10. The kbuild bot reports this as a warning for xtensa.
- Replaced "crypto: aesni: avoid -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning" with
a simpler patch, this one always triggers but my first solution
would not be safe for linux-4.9 any more at this point. I'll follow
up with the larger patch as a cleanup for 4.10.
- Replaced "dib0700: fix nec repeat handling" with a better one,
contributed by Sean Young"

nios2: fix timer initcall return value
x86: apm: avoid uninitialized data
NFSv4.1: work around -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning
Kbuild: enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning for "make W=1"
Previously the warnings were added back at the W=1 level and above, this
now turns them on again by default, assuming that we have addressed all
warnings and again have a clean build for v4.10.
I found a number of new warnings in linux-next already and submitted
bugfixes for those. Hopefully they are caught by the 0day builder in
the future as soon as this patch is merged.

Traditionally, we have always had warnings about uninitialized variables
enabled, as this is part of -Wall, and generally a good idea [1], but it
also always produced false positives, mainly because this is a variation
of the halting problem and provably impossible to get right in all cases
[2].
Various people have identified cases that are particularly bad for false
positives, and in commit e74fc973b6e5 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized
when building with -Os"), I turned off the warning for any build that
was done with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. This drastically reduced the number
of false positive warnings in the default build but unfortunately had
the side effect of turning the warning off completely in 'allmodconfig'
builds, which in turn led to a lot of warnings (both actual bugs, and
remaining false positives) to go in unnoticed.
With commit 877417e6ffb9 ("Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
definition") enabled the warning again for allmodconfig builds in v4.7
and in v4.8-rc1, I had finally managed to address all warnings I get in
an ARM allmodconfig build and most other maybe-uninitialized warnings
for ARM randconfig builds.
However, commit 6e8d666e9253 ("Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning
globally") was merged at the same time and disabled it completely for
all configurations, because of false-positive warnings on x86 that I had
not addressed until then. This caused a lot of actual bugs to get
merged into mainline, and I sent several dozen patches for these during
the v4.9 development cycle. Most of these are actual bugs, some are for
correct code that is safe because it is only called under external
constraints that make it impossible to run into the case that gcc sees,
and in a few cases gcc is just stupid and finds something that can
obviously never happen.
I have now done a few thousand randconfig builds on x86 and collected
all patches that I needed to address every single warning I got (I can
provide the combined patch for the other warnings if anyone is
interested), so I hope we can get the warning back and let people catch
the actual bugs earlier.
This reverts the change to disable the warning completely and for now
brings it back at the "make W=1" level, so we can get it merged into
mainline without introducing false positives. A follow-up patch enables
it on all levels unless some configuration option turns it off because
of false-positives.

The CRC code for asm exports grabs the preprocessed asm, finds the
___EXPORT_SYMBOL and turns those into EXPORT_SYMBOL in a C program
that can be preprocessed and parsed to create the CRC signatures from
the type.
The existing regex matching and replacement is too strict, and doesn't
deal well with whitespace among other things. The line
" EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym)" in a .S file would not match due to initial
whitespace, for example, which resulted in x86's ___preempt_schedule
failing to get CRCs.

I'm not sure how we missed this problem before. When I take a function
address and size from an oops and give it to faddr2line, it usually
complains about a size mismatch:
$ scripts/faddr2line ~/k/vmlinux write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60
skipping write_sysrq_trigger address at 0xffffffff815731a1 due to size mismatch (0x60 != 83)
no match for write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60
The problem is caused by differences in how kallsyms and faddr2line
determine a function's size.
kallsyms calculates a function's size by parsing the output of 'nm -n'
and subtracting the next function's address from the current function's
address. This means that nop instructions after the end of the function
are included in the size.
In contrast, faddr2line reads the size from the symbol table, which does
*not* include the ending nops in the function's size.
Change faddr2line to calculate the size from the output of 'nm -n' to be
consistent with kallsyms and oops outputs.

extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
(due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.

"This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot
time as possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in
CPU operation (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences,

Pull misc kbuild changes from Michal Marek:
"Just a few patches on the kbuild.git#misc branch this time:
- New Coccinelle patch by Nicholas Mc Guire
- Existing patch fixes by Julia Lawall
- Minor comment fix by Markus Elfring"
* 'misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
Coccinelle: flag conditions with no effect
scripts/coccicheck: Update reference for the corresponding documentation
Coccinelle: pm_runtime: ensure relevance of pm_runtime reports
Coccinelle: limit memdup_user transformation to GFP_KERNEL case
Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:
- EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.
This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
working on a patch to fix this.
Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
change prototypes.
- Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
Piggin
- fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.
- preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
-ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections
- CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell
- fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.
