Both KCOV and UBSAN use compiler instrumentation. If UBSAN detects a bug
in KCOV, it may cause infinite recursion via printk and other common
functions. We already don't instrument KCOV with KASAN/KCSAN for this
reason, don't instrument it with UBSAN as well.
As a side effect this also resolves the following gcc warning:
conflicting types for built-in function '__sanitizer_cov_trace_switch';
expected 'void(long unsigned int, void *)'
[-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch]
It's only reported when kcov.c is compiled with any of the sanitizers
enabled. Size of the arguments is correct, it's just that gcc uses 'long'
on 64-bit arches and 'long long' on 32-bit arches, while kernel type is
always 'long long'.

Expand the UBSAN tests to include some additional UB cases. Notably the
out-of-bounds enum loading appears not to work. Also include per-test
reporting, including the relevant CONFIG_UBSAN... Kconfigs.

Make each UBSAN option individually selectable and remove UBSAN_MISC which
no longer has any purpose. Add help text for each Kconfig, and include a
reference to the Clang sanitizer documentation. Disable unsigned overflow
by default (not available with GCC and makes x86 unbootable with Clang).
Disable unreachable when objtool is in use (redundant and confuses things:
instrumentation appears at unreachable locations).

Doing all*config builds attempts to build as much as possible. UBSAN_TRAP
effectively short-circuits lib/usban.c, so it should be disabled for
COMPILE_TEST so that the lib/ubsan.c code gets built.

Patch series "Clean up UBSAN Makefile", v2.
This series attempts to address the issues seen with UBSAN's object-size
sanitizer causing problems under GCC. In the process, the Kconfig and
Makefile are refactored to do all the cc-option calls in the Kconfig.
Additionally start to detangle -Wno-maybe-uninitialized, disable
UBSAN_TRAP under COMPILE_TEST for wider build coverage, and expand the
libusan tests.
This patch (of 7):
In commit 78a5255ffb6a ("Stop the ad-hoc games with
-Wno-maybe-initialized") -Wmaybe-uninitialized was disabled globally, so
keeping the disabling logic here too doesn't make sense.

None of the relay users require the use of mutable structs for callbacks,
however the relay code does. Instead of assigning the default callback
for subbuf_start, add a wrapper to conditionally call the client callback
if available, and fall back to default behaviour otherwise.
This lets all relay users make their struct rchan_callbacks const data.

Patch series "relay: cleanup and const callbacks", v2.
None of the relay users require the use of mutable structs for callbacks,
however the relay code does. Instead of assigning default callbacks when
there is none, add callback wrappers to conditionally call the client
callbacks if available, and fall back to default behaviour (typically
no-op) otherwise.
This lets all relay users make their struct rchan_callbacks const data.
This series starts with a number of cleanups first based on Christoph's
feedback.
This patch (of 9):
No relay client uses the buf_mapped or buf_unmapped callbacks. Remove
them. This makes relay's vm_operations_struct close callback a dummy,
remove it as well.

The functions rio_get_asm() and rio_get_device() are globally exported
but have almost no users in tree. The only user is rio_init_mports()
which invokes it via rio_init().
rio_init() iterates over every registered device and invokes
rio_fixup_device(). It looks like a fixup function which should perform a
"change" to the device but does nothing. It has been like this since its
introduction in commit 394b701ce4fbf ("[PATCH] RapidIO support: core
base") which was merged into v2.6.15-rc1.
Remove rio_init() because the performed fixup function
(rio_fixup_device()) does nothing. Remove rio_get_asm() and
rio_get_device() which have no callers now.

checkpatch reports a false TYPO_SPELLING warning for some words containing
an apostrophe when run with --codespell option.
A false positive is "doesn't". Occurrence of the word causes checkpatch
to emit the following warning:
"WARNING: 'doesn'' may be misspelled - perhaps 'doesn't'?"
Modify the regex pattern to be more in line with the codespell default
word matching regex. This fixes the word capture and avoids the false
warning.
In addition, highlight the misspelled word location by adding a caret
below the word.

Currently, checkpatch warns us if an assignment operator is placed at the
start of a line and not at the end of previous line.
E.g., running checkpatch on commit 8195b1396ec8 ("hv_netvsc: fix
deadlock on hotplug") reports:
CHECK: Assignment operator '=' should be on the previous line
+ struct netvsc_device *nvdev
+ = container_of(w, struct netvsc_device, subchan_work);
Provide a simple fix by appending assignment operator to the previous
line and removing from the current line, if both the lines are additions
(ie start with '+')

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: [email protected] 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.

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:
<[email protected]> # 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.

commit 33def8498fdd ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of
__section(foo) to __section("foo")") removed the stringification of the
section name and now requires quotes around the named section.
Update checkpatch to not remove any quotes when suggesting conversion
of __attribute__((section("name"))) to __section("name")
Miscellanea:
o Add section to the hash with __section replacement
o Remove separate test for __attribute__((section
o Remove the limitation on converting attributes containing only
known, possible conversions. Any unknown attribute types are now
left as-is and known types are converted and moved before
__attribute__ and removed from within the __attribute__((list...)).

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.

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'

Presence of hexadecimal address or symbol results in false warning
message by checkpatch.pl.
For example, running checkpatch on commit b8ad540dd4e4 ("mptcp: fix
memory leak in mptcp_subflow_create_socket()") results in warning:
WARNING:REPEATED_WORD: Possible repeated word: 'ff'
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 2f 30 0a 81 88 ff ff ........./0.....
Similarly, the presence of list command output in commit results in
an unnecessary warning.
For example, running checkpatch on commit 899e5ffbf246 ("perf record:
Introduce --switch-output-event") gives:
WARNING:REPEATED_WORD: Possible repeated word: 'root'
dr-xr-x---. 12 root root 4096 Apr 27 17:46 ..
Here, it reports 'ff' and 'root' to be repeated, but it is in fact part
of some address or code, where it has to be repeated.
In these cases, the intent of the warning to find stylistic issues in
commit messages is not met and the warning is just completely wrong in
this case.
To avoid these warnings, add an additional regex check for the directory
permission pattern and avoid checking the line for this class of
warning. Similarly, to avoid hex pattern, check if the word consists of
hex symbols and skip this warning if it is not among the common english
words formed using hex letters.
A quick evaluation on v5.6..v5.8 showed that this fix reduces
REPEATED_WORD warnings by the frequency of 1890.
A quick manual check found all cases are related to hex output or list
command outputs in commit messages.

Recently, commit 4f6ad8aa1eac ("checkpatch: move repeated word test")
moved the repeated word test to check for more file types. But after
this, if checkpatch.pl is run on MAINTAINERS, it generates several
new warnings of the type:
WARNING: Possible repeated word: 'git'
For example:
WARNING: Possible repeated word: 'git'
+T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/uml.git
So, the pattern "git git://..." is a false positive in this case.
There are several other combinations which may produce a wrong warning
message, such as "@size size", ":Begin begin", etc.
Extend repeated word check to compare the characters before and after
the word matches.
If there is a non whitespace character before the first word or a non
whitespace character excluding punctuation characters after the second
word, then the check is skipped and the warning is avoided.
Also add case insensitive word matching to the repeated word check.

LZ4 final literal copy could be overlapped when doing
in-place decompression, so it's unsafe to just use memcpy()
on an optimized memcpy approach but memmove() instead.
Upstream LZ4 has updated this years ago [1] (and the impact
is non-sensible [2] plus only a few bytes remain), this commit
just synchronizes LZ4 upstream code to the kernel side as well.
It can be observed as EROFS in-place decompression failure
on specific files when X86_FEATURE_ERMS is unsupported,
memcpy() optimization of commit 59daa706fbec ("x86, mem:
Optimize memcpy by avoiding memory false dependece") will
be enabled then.
Currently most modern x86-CPUs support ERMS, these CPUs just
use "rep movsb" approach so no problem at all. However, it can
still be verified with forcely disabling ERMS feature...
arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:
ALTERNATIVE_2 "jmp memcpy_orig", "", X86_FEATURE_REP_GOOD, \
- "jmp memcpy_erms", X86_FEATURE_ERMS
+ "jmp memcpy_orig", X86_FEATURE_ERMS
We didn't observe any strange on arm64/arm/x86 platform before
since most memcpy() would behave in an increasing address order
("copy upwards" [3]) and it's the correct order of in-place
decompression but it really needs an update to memmove() for sure
considering it's an undefined behavior according to the standard
and some unique optimization already exists in the kernel.
