Commit 0f71dcfb4aef ("powerpc/ftrace: Add support for
-fpatchable-function-entry") added a script to check for
-fpatchable-function-entry compiler support. The script expects compiler
to emit the section __patchable_function_entries and few nops after a
function entry.
If the compiler understands and emits the above,
CONFIG_ARCH_USING_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY is set.
So teach dummy-tools' gcc about this.

These symbol patterns were whitelisted to allow them to reference to
functions with the old __devinit and __devexit annotations.
We stopped doing this a long time ago, for example, commit 6f039790510f
("Drivers: scsi: remove __dev* attributes.") remove those annotations
from the scsi drivers.
Keep *_ops, *_probe, and *_console, otherwise they will really cause
section mismatch warnings.

Drivers must not reference .meminit* sections, which are discarded
when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n.
The reason for whitelisting "*driver" in the section mismatch check
was to allow drivers to reference symbols annotated as __devinit or
__devexit that existed in the past.
Those annotations were removed by the following commits:
- 54b956b90360 ("Remove __dev* markings from init.h")
- 92e9e6d1f984 ("modpost.c: Stop checking __dev* section mismatches")

scripts/pahole-flags.sh is executed so many times.
You can confirm it, as follows:
$ cat <<EOF >> scripts/pahole-flags.sh
> echo "scripts/pahole-flags.sh was executed" >&2
> EOF
$ make -s
scripts/pahole-flags.sh was executed
scripts/pahole-flags.sh was executed
scripts/pahole-flags.sh was executed
scripts/pahole-flags.sh was executed
scripts/pahole-flags.sh was executed
[ lots of repeated lines... ]
This scripts is executed more than 20 times during the kernel build
because PAHOLE_FLAGS is a recursively expanded variable and exported
to sub-processes.
With GNU Make >= 4.4, it is executed more than 60 times because
exported variables are also passed to other $(shell ) invocations.
Without careful coding, it is known to cause an exponential fork
explosion. [1]
The use of $(shell ) in an exported recursive variable is likely wrong
because $(shell ) is always evaluated due to the 'export' keyword, and
the evaluation can occur multiple times by the nature of recursive
variables.
Convert the shell script to a Makefile, which is included only when
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y.

Now that vdso_install does not depend on any in-tree build artifact,

Currently, there is no standard implementation for vdso_install,
leading to various issues:
1. Code duplication
Many architectures duplicate similar code just for copying files
to the install destination.
Some architectures (arm, sparc, x86) create build-id symlinks,
introducing more code duplication.
2. Unintended updates of in-tree build artifacts
The vdso_install rule depends on the vdso files to install.
It may update in-tree build artifacts. This can be problematic,
as explained in commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make
"make install" not depend on vmlinux").
3. Broken code in some architectures
Makefile code is often copied from one architecture to another
without proper adaptation.
'make vdso_install' for parisc does not work.
'make vdso_install' for s390 installs vdso64, but not vdso32.
To address these problems, this commit introduces a generic vdso_install
rule.
Architectures that support vdso_install need to define vdso-install-y
in arch/*/Makefile. vdso-install-y lists the files to install.
For example, arch/x86/Makefile looks like this:
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdsox32.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_32) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
These files will be installed to $(MODLIB)/vdso/ with the .dbg suffix,
if exists, stripped away.
vdso-install-y can optionally take the second field after the colon
separator. This is needed because some architectures install a vdso
file as a different base name.
The following is a snippet from arch/arm64/Makefile.
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO) += arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so.dbg:vdso32.so
This will rename vdso.so.dbg to vdso32.so during installation. If such
architectures change their implementation so that the base names match,
this workaround will go away.

When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(ishtp, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().
For example, see a case where drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.c
is built as a module for x86.
If you build it on a little-endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{6A19CC4B-D760-4DE3-B14D-F25EBD0FBCD9}");
However, if you build it on a big-endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{BD0FBCD9-F25E-B14D-4DE3-D7606A19CC4B}");
This issue has been unnoticed because the x86 kernel is most likely built
natively on an x86 host.

The same problem also occurs when you enable CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN,
and build it on a little-endian host.
This issue has been unnoticed because the ARM kernel is configured for
little-endian by default, and most likely built on a little-endian host
(cross-build on x86 or native-build on ARM).

The generation of the kernel-devel package is disabled for binrpm-pkg
presumably because it was quite big (>= 200MB) and took a long time to
package.
Commit fe66b5d2ae72 ("kbuild: refactor kernel-devel RPM package and
linux-headers Deb package") reduced the package size to 12MB, and now
it is quick to build. It won't hurt to have binrpm-pkg generate it by
default.
If you want to skip the kernel-devel package generation, you can pass
RPMOPTS='--without devel':

Currently, rustc defaults to invoking `cc`, even if `HOSTCC` is defined,
resulting in build failures in hermetic environments where `cc` does not
exist. This includes both hostprogs and proc-macros.
Since we are setting the linker to `HOSTCC`, we set the linker flavor to
`gcc` explicitly. The linker-flavor selects both which linker to search
for if the linker is unset, and which kind of linker flags to pass.
Without this flag, `rustc` would attempt to determine which flags to
pass based on the name of the binary passed as `HOSTCC`. `gcc` is the
name of the linker-flavor used by `rustc` for all C compilers, including
both `gcc` and `clang`.

being deleted leaving a dentry with no children. In this case the
dlist->dentries array will never be allocated. This needs to be checked
for in eventfs_release(), otherwise it will trigger a NULL pointer
dereference.

All architectures should use a long aligned address passed to set_bit().
User processes can pass either a 32-bit or 64-bit sized value to be
updated when tracing is enabled when on a 64-bit kernel. Both cases are
ensured to be naturally aligned, however, that is not enough. The
address must be long aligned without affecting checks on the value
within the user process which require different adjustments for the bit
for little and big endian CPUs.
Add a compat flag to user_event_enabler that indicates when a 32-bit
value is being used on a 64-bit kernel. Long align addresses and correct
the bit to be used by set_bit() to account for this alignment. Ensure
compat flags are copied during forks and used during deletion clears.

When kernel is compiled without preemption, the eval_map_work_func()
(which calls trace_event_eval_update()) will not be preempted up to its
complete execution. This can actually cause a problem since if another
CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the
eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue
before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP
system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed
clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We
observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing
eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task.
Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows
other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously
like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

It was discovered that the ring buffer polling was incorrectly stating
that read would not block, but that's because polling did not take into
account that reads will block if the "buffer-percent" was set. Instead,
the ring buffer polling would say reads would not block if there was any
data in the ring buffer. This was incorrect behavior from a user space
point of view. This was fixed by commit 42fb0a1e84ff by having the polling
code check if the ring buffer had more data than what the user specified
"buffer percent" had.
The problem now is that the polling code did not register itself to the
writer that it wanted to wait for a specific "full" value of the ring
buffer. The result was that the writer would wake the polling waiter
whenever there was a new event. The polling waiter would then wake up, see
that there's not enough data in the ring buffer to notify user space and
then go back to sleep. The next event would wake it up again.
Before the polling fix was added, the code would wake up around 100 times
for a hackbench 30 benchmark. After the "fix", due to the constant waking
of the writer, it would wake up over 11,0000 times! It would never leave
the kernel, so the user space behavior was still "correct", but this
definitely is not the desired effect.
To fix this, have the polling code add what it's waiting for to the
"shortest_full" variable, to tell the writer not to wake it up if the
buffer is not as full as it expects to be.
Note, after this fix, it appears that the waiter is now woken up around 2x
the times it was before (~200). This is a tremendous improvement from the
11,000 times, but I will need to spend some time to see why polling is
more aggressive in its wakeups than the read blocking code.
