2019-02-19asm-generic: Drop getrlimit and setrlimit syscalls from default listYury Norov1-0/+5
The newer prlimit64 syscall provides all the functionality of getrlimit and setrlimit syscalls and adds the pid of target process, so future architectures won't need to include getrlimit and setrlimit. Therefore drop getrlimit and setrlimit syscalls from the generic syscall list unless __ARCH_WANT_SET_GET_RLIMIT is defined by the architecture's unistd.h prior to including asm-generic/unistd.h, and adjust all architectures using the generic syscall list to define it so that no in-tree architectures are affected.

2019-02-13locking/atomics: Check atomic headers with sha1sumMark Rutland2-6/+40
We currently check the atomic headers at build-time to ensure they haven't been modified directly, and these checks require regenerating the headers in full. As this takes a few seconds, even when parallelized, this is too slow to run for every kernel build. Instead, we can generate a hash of each header as we generate them, which we can cheaply check at build time (~0.16s for all headers). This patch does so, updating headers with their hashes using the new gen-atomics.sh script. As some users apparently build the kernel wihout coreutils, lacking sha1sum, the checks are skipped in this case. Presumably, most developers have a working coreutils installation.

git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground into timers/2038 Pull y2038 - time64 system calls from Arnd Bergmann: This series finally gets us to the point of having system calls with 64-bit time_t on all architectures, after a long time of incremental preparation patches. There was actually one conversion that I missed during the summer, i.e. Deepa's timex series, which I now updated based the 5.0-rc1 changes and review comments. The following system calls are now added on all 32-bit architectures using the same system call numbers: 403 clock_gettime64 404 clock_settime64 405 clock_adjtime64 406 clock_getres_time64 407 clock_nanosleep_time64 408 timer_gettime64 409 timer_settime64 410 timerfd_gettime64 411 timerfd_settime64 412 utimensat_time64 413 pselect6_time64 414 ppoll_time64 416 io_pgetevents_time64 417 recvmmsg_time64 418 mq_timedsend_time64 419 mq_timedreceiv_time64 420 semtimedop_time64 421 rt_sigtimedwait_time64 422 futex_time64 423 sched_rr_get_interval_time64 Each one of these corresponds directly to an existing system call that includes a 'struct timespec' argument, or a structure containing a timespec or (in case of clock_adjtime) timeval. Not included here are new versions of getitimer/setitimer and getrusage/waitid, which are planned for the future but only needed to make a consistent API rather than for correct operation beyond y2038. These four system calls are based on 'timeval', and it has not been finally decided what the replacement kernel interface will use instead. So far, I have done a lot of build testing across most architectures, which has found a number of bugs. Runtime testing so far included testing LTP on 32-bit ARM with the existing system calls, to ensure we do not regress for existing binaries, and a test with a 32-bit x86 build of LTP against a modified version of the musl C library that has been adapted to the new system call interface [3]. This library can be used for testing on all architectures supported by musl-1.1.21, but it is not how the support is getting integrated into the official musl release. Official musl support is planned but will require more invasive changes to the library.

2019-02-07y2038: add 64-bit time_t syscalls to all 32-bit architecturesArnd Bergmann1-0/+40
This adds 21 new system calls on each ABI that has 32-bit time_t today. All of these have the exact same semantics as their existing counterparts, and the new ones all have macro names that end in 'time64' for clarification. This gets us to the point of being able to safely use a C library that has 64-bit time_t in user space. There are still a couple of loose ends to tie up in various areas of the code, but this is the big one, and should be entirely uncontroversial at this point. In particular, there are four system calls (getitimer, setitimer, waitid, and getrusage) that don't have a 64-bit counterpart yet, but these can all be safely implemented in the C library by wrapping around the existing system calls because the 32-bit time_t they pass only counts elapsed time, not time since the epoch. They will be dealt with later.

2019-02-01tee: add bus driver framework for TEE based devicesSumit Garg2-0/+22
Introduce a generic TEE bus driver concept for TEE based kernel drivers which would like to communicate with TEE based devices/services. Also add support in module device table for these new TEE based devices. In this TEE bus concept, devices/services are identified via Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) and drivers register a table of device UUIDs which they can support. So this TEE bus framework registers following apis: - match(): Iterates over the driver UUID table to find a corresponding match for device UUID. If a match is found, then this particular device is probed via corresponding probe api registered by the driver. This process happens whenever a device or a driver is registered with TEE bus. - uevent(): Notifies user-space (udev) whenever a new device is registered on this bus for auto-loading of modularized drivers. Also this framework allows for device enumeration to be specific to corresponding TEE implementation like OP-TEE etc. Signed-off-by: Sumit Garg <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Daniel Thompson <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Bhupesh Sharma <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jens Wiklander <[email protected]>

2019-01-28kbuild: add real-prereqs shorthand for $(filter-out FORCE,$^)Masahiro Yamada4-13/+20
In Kbuild, if_changed and friends must have FORCE as a prerequisite. Hence, $(filter-out FORCE,$^) or $(filter-out $(PHONY),$^) is a common idiom to get the names of all the prerequisites except phony targets. Add real-prereqs as a shorthand. Note: We cannot replace $(filter %.o,$^) in cmd_link_multi-m because $^ may include auto-generated dependencies from the .*.cmd file when a single object module is changed into a multi object module.

2019-01-20gcc-plugins: arm_ssp_per_task_plugin: fix for GCC 9+Ard Biesheuvel1-0/+18
GCC 9 reworks the way the references to the stack canary are emitted, to prevent the value from being spilled to the stack before the final comparison in the epilogue, defeating the purpose, given that the spill slot is under control of the attacker that we are protecting ourselves from. Since our canary value address is obtained without accessing memory (as opposed to pre-v7 code that will obtain it from a literal pool), it is unlikely (although not guaranteed) that the compiler will spill the canary value in the same way, so let's just disable this improvement when building with GCC9+.

2019-01-16kernel-doc: suppress 'not described' warnings for embedded struct fieldsJonathan Corbet1-1/+1
The ability to add kerneldoc comments for fields in embedded structures is useful, but it brought along a whole bunch of warnings for fields that could not be described before. In many cases, there's little value in adding docs for these nested fields, and in cases like: struct a { struct b { int c; } d, e; }; "c" would have to be described twice (as d.c and e.c) to make the warnings go away. We can no doubt do something smarter, but simply suppressing the warnings for this case removes about 70 warnings from the docs build, freeing us to focus on the ones that matter more. So make kerneldoc be silent about missing descriptions for any field containing a ".". Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <[email protected]>

Then later we grew anothe dma_zalloc_coherent interface to explicitly request zeroing, but that just added __GFP_ZERO to the allocation flags, which for some allocators that didn't end up using the page allocator ended up being a no-op and still not zeroing the allocations. So for this merge window I fixed up all remaining architectures to zero the memory in dma_alloc_coherent, and made dma_zalloc_coherent a no-op wrapper around dma_alloc_coherent, which fixes all of the above issues. dma_zalloc_coherent is now pointless and can go away, and Luis helped me writing a cocchinelle script and patch series to kill it, which I think we should apply now just after -rc1 to finally settle these issue" * tag 'remove-dma_zalloc_coherent-5.0' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping: dma-mapping: remove dma_zalloc_coherent() cross-tree: phase out dma_zalloc_coherent() on headers cross-tree: phase out dma_zalloc_coherent()

Some time ago, Sam pointed out a certain degree of overwrap between generic-y and mandatory-y. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/7/10/121) I tweaked the meaning of mandatory-y a little bit; now it defines the minimum set of ASM headers that all architectures must have. If arch does not have specific implementation of a mandatory header, Kbuild will let it fallback to the asm-generic one by automatically generating a wrapper. This will allow to drop lots of redundant generic-y defines. Previously, "mandatory" was used in the context of UAPI, but I guess this can be extended to kernel space ASM headers.

This has been reported [0], but we should ensure that we can support at least basic printing of the core kernel strings. For current gdb version (has been tested with 7.3 and 8.1), 'lx-version' only prints one character. (gdb) lx-version L(gdb) This can be fixed by casting 'linux_banner' as (char *). (gdb) lx-version Linux version 4.19.0-rc1+ (changbin@acer) (gcc version 7.3.0 (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3)) #21 SMP Sat Sep 1 21:43:30 CST 2018 [0] https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20077 [[email protected]: add detail to commit message] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Fixes: 2d061d999424 ("scripts/gdb: add version command") Signed-off-by: Du Changbin <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <[email protected]> Acked-by: Jan Kiszka <[email protected]> Cc: Jan Kiszka <[email protected]> Cc: Jason Wessel <[email protected]> Cc: Daniel Thompson <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2019-01-04checkpatch: warn on const char foo[] = "bar"; declarationsJoe Perches1-2/+11
These declarations should generally be static const to avoid poor compilation and runtime performance where compilers tend to initialize the const declaration for every call instead of using .rodata for the string.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Rework of the kprobe/uprobe and synthetic events to consolidate all the dynamic event code. This will make changes in the future easier. - Partial rewrite of the function graph tracing infrastructure. This will allow for multiple users of hooking onto functions to get the callback (return) of the function. This is the ground work for having kprobes and function graph tracer using one code base. - Clean up of the histogram code that will facilitate adding more features to the histograms in the future. - Addition of str_has_prefix() and a few use cases. There currently is a similar function strstart() that is used in a few places, but only returns a bool and not a length. These instances will be removed in the future to use str_has_prefix() instead. - A few other various clean ups as well. * tag 'trace-v4.21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (57 commits) tracing: Use the return of str_has_prefix() to remove open coded numbers tracing: Have the historgram use the result of str_has_prefix() for len of prefix tracing: Use str_has_prefix() instead of using fixed sizes tracing: Use str_has_prefix() helper for histogram code string.h: Add str_has_prefix() helper function tracing: Make function ‘ftrace_exports’ static tracing: Simplify printf'ing in seq_print_sym tracing: Avoid -Wformat-nonliteral warning tracing: Merge seq_print_sym_short() and seq_print_sym_offset() tracing: Add hist trigger comments for variable-related fields tracing: Remove hist trigger synth_var_refs tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy var_refs tracing: Remove open-coding of hist trigger var_ref management tracing: Use var_refs[] for hist trigger reference checking tracing: Change strlen to sizeof for hist trigger static strings tracing: Remove unnecessary hist trigger struct field tracing: Fix ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() to use task and not current seq_buf: Use size_t for len in seq_buf_puts() seq_buf: Make seq_buf_puts() null-terminate the buffer arm64: Use ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() instead of curr_ret_stack ...
