2016-12-12kasan: turn on -fsanitize-address-use-after-scopeAndrey Ryabinin1-0/+2
In the upcoming gcc7 release, the -fsanitize=kernel-address option at first implied new -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope option. This would cause link errors on older kernels because they don't have two new functions required for use-after-scope support. Therefore, gcc7 changed default to -fno-sanitize-address-use-after-scope. Now the kernel has everything required for that feature since commit 828347f8f9a5 ("kasan: support use-after-scope detection"). So, to make it work, we just have to enable use-after-scope in CFLAGS.

2016-12-11kconfig/nconf: Fix hang when editing symbol with a long promptBen Hutchings1-4/+11
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().

2016-11-29kbuild: improve linker compatibility with lib-ksyms.o buildNicholas Piggin1-1/+1
lib-ksyms.o is created by linking an empty input file with a linker script containing the interesting bits. Currently the empty input file is an archive containing nothing, however this causes the gold linker to segfault. I have opened a bug against gold https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20767 However this can be worked around by assembling an empty file to link with instead. The resulting lib-ksyms.o is slightly larger (seemingly due to empty .text, .data, .bss setions added), but final linked output should not be changed.

2016-11-29kbuild: kallsyms allow 3-pass generation if symbols size has changedNicholas Piggin1-6/+13
kallsyms generation is not foolproof, due to some linkers adding symbols (e.g., branch trampolines) when a binary size changes. Have it attempt a 3rd pass automatically if the kallsyms size changes in the 2nd pass. This allows powerpc64 allyesconfig to build without adding another pass when it's not required. 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 significant change that requires more testing and review.

2016-11-16kernel-doc: add support for one line inline struct member doc commentsJani Nikula1-1/+11
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.

2016-11-16Kconfig: Introduce the "imply" keywordNicolas Pitre5-19/+79
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.

2016-11-15locking/mutex, drm: Introduce mutex_trylock_recursive()Peter Zijlstra1-0/+6
By popular DRM demand, introduce mutex_trylock_recursive() to fix up the two GEM users. Without this it is very easy for these drivers to get stuck in low-memory situations and trigger OOM. Work is in progress to remove the need for this in at least i915.

2016-11-14recordmcount: arm: Implement make_nopStephen Boyd1-0/+65
In similar spirit to x86 and arm64 support, add a make_nop_arm() to replace calls to mcount with a nop in sections that aren't traced.
