Right now if SUBLEVEL becomes larger than 255 it will overflow into the
territory of PATCHLEVEL, causing havoc in userspace that tests for
specific kernel version.
While userspace code tests for MAJOR and PATCHLEVEL, it doesn't test
SUBLEVEL at any point as ABI changes don't happen in the context of
stable tree.
Thus, to avoid overflows, simply clamp SUBLEVEL to it's maximum value in
the context of LINUX_VERSION_CODE. This does not affect "make
kernelversion" and such.

DWARF v5 is the latest standard of the DWARF debug info format. GCC 11
will change the implicit default DWARF version, if left unspecified, to
DWARF v5.
Allow users of Clang and older versions of GCC that have not changed the
implicit default DWARF version to DWARF v5 to opt in. This can help
testing consumers of DWARF debug info in preparation of v5 becoming more
widespread, as well as result in significant binary size savings of the
pre-stripped vmlinux image.
DWARF5 wins significantly in terms of size when mixed with compression
(CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED).
363M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5.compressed
434M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4.compressed
439M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2.compressed
457M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5
536M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4
548M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2
515M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5.compressed
599M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4.compressed
624M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2.compressed
630M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5
765M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4
809M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2
Though the quality of debug info is harder to quantify; size is not a
proxy for quality.
Jakub notes:
One thing is GCC DWARF-5 support, that is whether the compiler will
support -gdwarf-5 flag, and that support should be there from GCC 7
onwards.
All [GCC] 5.1 - 6.x did was start accepting -gdwarf-5 as experimental
option that enabled some small DWARF subset (initially only a few
DW_LANG_* codes newly added to DWARF5 drafts). Only GCC 7 (released
after DWARF 5 has been finalized) started emitting DWARF5 section
headers and got most of the DWARF5 changes in...
Another separate thing is whether the assembler does support
the -gdwarf-5 option (i.e. if you can compile assembler files
with -Wa,-gdwarf-5) ... That option is about whether the assembler
will emit DWARF5 or DWARF2 .debug_line. It is fine to compile C sources
with -gdwarf-5 and use DWARF2 .debug_line for assembler files if as
doesn't support it.
Version check GCC so that we don't need to worry about the difference in
command line args between GNU readelf and llvm-readelf/llvm-dwarfdump to
validate the DWARF Version in the assembler feature detection script.
Most issues with clang produced assembler were fixed in binutils 2.35.1,
but 2.35.2 fixed issues related to requiring the flag -Wa,-gdwarf-5
explicitly. The added shell script test checks for the latter, and is
only required when using clang without its integrated assembler, though
we use for clang regardless as we do not yet have a way to query the
assembler from Kconfig.
Disabled for now if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is set; pahole doesn't yet
recognize the new additions to the DWARF debug info.
This only modifies the DWARF version emitted by the compiler, not the
assembler.
The DWARF version of a binary can be validated with:
$ llvm-dwarfdump <object file> | head -n 4 | grep version
or
$ readelf --debug-dump=info <object file> 2>/dev/null | grep Version
Parts of the tree don't reuse DEBUG_CFLAGS as they should; such cleanup
is left as a follow up.

Adds a default CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT which allows
the implicit default version of DWARF emitted by the toolchain to
progress over time.
Modifies CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 to be a member of a choice, making it
mutually exclusive with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT. Users
may want to select this if they are using a newer toolchain, but have
consumers of the DWARF debug info that aren't yet ready for newer DWARF
versions' debug info.
Does so in a way that's forward compatible with existing
configs, and makes adding future versions more straightforward. This
patch does not change the current behavior or selection of DWARF
version for users upgrading to kernels with this patch.
GCC since ~4.8 has defaulted to DWARF v4 implicitly, and GCC 11 has
bumped this to v5.
Remove the Kconfig help text about DWARF v4 being larger. It's
empirically false for the latest toolchains for x86_64 defconfig, has no
point of reference (I suspect it was DWARF v2 but that's stil
empirically false), and debug info size is not a qualatative measure.

We expect toolchains to produce these new debug info sections as part of
DWARF v5. Add explicit placements to prevent the linker warnings from
--orphan-section=warn.
Compilers may produce such sections with explicit -gdwarf-5, or based on
the implicit default version of DWARF when -g is used via DEBUG_INFO.
This implicit default changes over time, and has changed to DWARF v5
with GCC 11.
.debug_sup was mentioned in review, but without compilers producing it
today, let's wait to add it until it becomes necessary.

Paul Gortmaker reported a regression in the GCC version check. [1]
If you use GCC 4.8, the build breaks before showing the error message
"error Sorry, your version of GCC is too old - please use 4.9 or newer."
I do not want to apply his fix-up since it implies we would not be able
to remove any cc-option test. Anyway, I admit checking the GCC version
in <linux/compiler-gcc.h> is too late.
Almost at the same time, Linus also suggested to move the compiler
version error to Kconfig time. [2]
I unified the two similar scripts, gcc-version.sh and clang-version.sh
into cc-version.sh. The old scripts invoked the compiler multiple times
(3 times for gcc-version.sh, 4 times for clang-version.sh). I refactored
the code so the new one invokes the compiler just once, and also tried
my best to use shell-builtin commands where possible.
The new script runs faster.
$ time ./scripts/clang-version.sh clang
120000
real 0m0.029s
user 0m0.012s
sys 0m0.021s
$ time ./scripts/cc-version.sh clang
Clang 120000
real 0m0.009s
user 0m0.006s
sys 0m0.004s
cc-version.sh also shows an error message if the compiler is too old:
$ make defconfig CC=clang-9
*** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
***
*** Compiler is too old.
*** Your Clang version: 9.0.1
*** Minimum Clang version: 10.0.1
***
scripts/Kconfig.include:46: Sorry, this compiler is not supported.
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile:81: defconfig] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:602: defconfig] Error 2
The new script takes care of ICC because we have <linux/compiler-intel.h>
although I am not sure if building the kernel with ICC is well-supported.

Commit ccbef1674a15 ("Kbuild, lto: add ld-version and ld-ifversion
macros") introduced scripts/ld-version.sh for GCC LTO.
At that time, this script handled 5 version fields because GCC LTO
needed the downstream binutils. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)
The code snippet from the submitted patch was as follows:
# We need HJ Lu's Linux binutils because mainline binutils does not
# support mixing assembler and LTO code in the same ld -r object.
# XXX check if the gcc plugin ld is the expected one too
# XXX some Fedora binutils should also support it. How to check for that?
ifeq ($(call ld-ifversion,-ge,22710001,y),y)
...
However, GCC LTO was not merged into the mainline after all.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)
So, the 4th and 5th fields were never used, and finally removed by
commit 0d61ed17dd30 ("ld-version: Drop the 4th and 5th version
components").
Since then, the last 4-digits returned by this script is always zeros.
Remove the meaningless last 4-digits. This makes the version format
consistent with GCC_VERSION, CLANG_VERSION, LLD_VERSION.

The -gdwarf-4 flag is supported by GCC 4.5+, and also by Clang.
You can see it at https://godbolt.org/z/6ed1oW
For gcc 4.5.3 pane, line 37: .value 0x4
For clang 10.0.1 pane, line 117: .short 4
Given Documentation/process/changes.rst stating GCC 4.9 is the minimal
version, this cc-option is unneeded.
Note
----
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 controls the DWARF version only for C files.
As you can see in the top Makefile, -gdwarf-4 is only passed to CFLAGS.
ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4
DEBUG_CFLAGS += -gdwarf-4
endif
This flag is used when compiling *.c files.
On the other hand, the assembler is always given -gdwarf-2.
KBUILD_AFLAGS += -Wa,-gdwarf-2
Hence, the debug info that comes from *.S files is always DWARF v2.
This is simply because GAS supported only -gdwarf-2 for a long time.
Recently, GAS gained the support for --gdwarf-[345] options. [1]
And, also we have Clang integrated assembler. So, the debug info
for *.S files might be improved in the future.
In my understanding, the current code is intentional, not a bug.

By default, xz without parameters uses a dictionary size of 8 MB.
However, most modules are much smaller than that.
The xz manpage states that 'increasing dictionary size usually improves
compression ratio, but a dictionary bigger than the uncompressed file
is waste of memory'.
Use a dictionary size of 2 MB for module compression, resulting in
slightly higher compression speed while still maintaining a good
compression ratio.

Randy reports the following warning when building ARCH=ia64 with
CONFIG_IA64_PALINFO=m:
../scripts/Makefile.build:68: 'arch/ia64/kernel/palinfo.ko' will not be built even though obj-m is specified.
../scripts/Makefile.build:69: You cannot use subdir-y/m to visit a module Makefile. Use obj-y/m instead.
This message is actually false-positive, and you can get palinfo.ko
correctly built. It is emitted in the archprepare stage, where Kbuild
descends into arch/ia64/kernel to generate include/generated/nr-irqs.h
instead of any kind of kernel objects.
arch/ia64/kernel/nr-irqs.c was introduced by commit 213060a4d699
("[IA64] pvops: paravirtualize NR_IRQS") to pre-calculate:
NR_IRQS = max(IA64_NATIVE_NR_IRQS, XEN_NR_IRQS, FOO_NR_IRQS...)
Since commit d52eefb47d4e ("ia64/xen: Remove Xen support for ia64"), this
union contains just one field, making NR_IRQS and IA64_NATIVE_NR_IRQS
always match.
So, the following hard-coding now works:
#define NR_IRQS IA64_NATIVE_NR_IRQS
If you need to re-introduce NR_IRQS = max(...) gimmick in the future,
please try to implement it in asm-offsets.c instead of a separate file.
It will be possible because the header inclusion has been consolidated
to make asm-offsets.c independent of <asm/irqs.h>.

- <linux/threads.h> for NR_CPUS
- <linux/types.h> for u8, u64, size_t, etc.
- <asm/ptrace.h> for KERNEL_STACK_SIZE
The other header includes are actually unneeded.

Documentation/process/coding-style.rst says:
Please don't use things like ``vps_t``.
It's a **mistake** to use typedef for structures and pointers.
This commit converts as follows:
struct pal_min_state_area_s -> struct pal_min_state_area
pal_min_state_area_t -> struct pal_min_state_area
My main motivation for this is to slim down the include directives
of <asm/mca.h> in the next commit.
Currently, <asm/mca.h> is required to include <asm/pal.h> directly
or indirectly due to (pal_min_state_area_t *). Otherwise, it would
have no idea what pal_min_state_area_t is.
Replacing it with (struct pal_min_state_area *) will relax the header
dependency since it is enough to tell it is a pointer to a structure,
and to resolve the size of struct pal_min_state_area. It will make
<asm/mca.h> independent of <asm/pal.h>.
<asm/pal.h> typedef's a lot of structures, but it is trivial to
convert the others in the same way.

With CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL, CONFIG_UBSAN and CONFIG_UBSAN_UNSIGNED_OVERFLOW
enabled, clang fails the build with
x86_64-linux-ld: arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.o: in function `efi_sync_low_kernel_mappings':
efi_64.c:(.text+0x22c): undefined reference to `__compiletime_assert_354'
which happens due to -fsanitize=unsigned-integer-overflow being enabled:
-fsanitize=unsigned-integer-overflow: Unsigned integer overflow, where
the result of an unsigned integer computation cannot be represented
in its type. Unlike signed integer overflow, this is not undefined
behavior, but it is often unintentional. This sanitizer does not check
for lossy implicit conversions performed before such a computation
(see -fsanitize=implicit-conversion).
and that fires when the (intentional) EFI_VA_START/END defines overflow
an unsigned long, leading to the assertion expressions not getting
optimized away (on GCC they do)...
However, those checks are superfluous: the runtime services mapping
code already makes sure the ranges don't overshoot EFI_VA_END as the
EFI mapping range is hardcoded. On each runtime services call, it is
switched to the EFI-specific PGD and even if mappings manage to escape
that last PGD, this won't remain unnoticed for long.
So rip them out.

Michael Kerrisk suggested that, from an API perspective, it is a bad
idea to share the PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ defines between the prctl operation
and the selector variable.
Therefore, define two new constants to be used by SUD's selector variable
and update the corresponding documentation and test cases.
While this changes the API syscall user dispatch has never been part of a
Linux release, it will show up for the first time in 5.11.

Commit 299155244770 ("entry: Drop usage of TIF flags in the generic syscall
code") introduced a bug on architectures using the generic syscall entry
code, in which processes stopped by PTRACE_SYSCALL do not trap on syscall
return after receiving a TIF_SINGLESTEP.
The reason is that the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP flag is overloaded to
cause the trap after a system call is executed, but since the above commit,
the syscall call handler only checks for the SYSCALL_WORK flags on the exit
work.
Split the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP such that it only means single-step
mode, and create a new type of SYSCALL_WORK to request a trap immediately
after a syscall in single-step mode. In the current implementation, the
SYSCALL_WORK flag shadows the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag for simplicity.
Update x86 to flip this bit when a tracer enables single stepping.

This reverts commit 1abdfe706a579a702799fce465bceb9fb01d407c.
This change is broken and not solving any problem it claims to solve.
Robin reported that cpumask_local_spread() now returns any cpu out of
cpu_possible_mask in case that NOHZ_FULL is disabled (runtime or compile
time). It can also return any offline or not-present CPU in the
housekeeping mask. Before that it was returning a CPU out of
online_cpu_mask.
While the function is racy against CPU hotplug if the caller does not
protect against it, the actual use cases are not caring much about it as
they use it mostly as hint for:
- the user space affinity hint which is unused by the kernel
- memory node selection which is just suboptimal
- network queue affinity which might fail but is handled gracefully
But the occasional fail vs. hotplug is very different from returning
anything from possible_cpu_mask which can have a large amount of offline
CPUs obviously.
The changelog of the commit claims:
"The current implementation of cpumask_local_spread() does not respect
the isolated CPUs, i.e., even if a CPU has been isolated for Real-Time
task, it will return it to the caller for pinning of its IRQ
threads. Having these unwanted IRQ threads on an isolated CPU adds up
to a latency overhead."
The only correct part of this changelog is:
"The current implementation of cpumask_local_spread() does not respect
the isolated CPUs."
Everything else is just disjunct from reality.

Since commit a85a6c86c25b ("driver core: platform: Clarify that IRQ 0
is invalid"), having a linux-irq with number 0 will trigger a WARN()
when calling platform_get_irq*() to retrieve that linux-irq.
Since [devm_]irq_alloc_desc allocs a single irq and since irq 0 is not used
on some systems, it can return 0, triggering that WARN(). This happens
e.g. on Intel Bay Trail and Cherry Trail devices using the LPE audio engine
for HDMI audio:
0 is an invalid IRQ number
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 472 at drivers/base/platform.c:238 platform_get_irq_optional+0x108/0x180

Change the 'from' parameter passed to __[devm_]irq_alloc_descs() by the
[devm_]irq_alloc_desc macros from 0 to 1, so that these macros will no
longer return 0.

Assuming
- //HOST/a is mounted on /mnt
- //HOST/b is mounted on /mnt/b
On a slow connection, running 'df' and killing it while it's
processing /mnt/b can make cifs_get_inode_info() returns -ERESTARTSYS.
This triggers the following chain of events:
=> the dentry revalidation fail
=> dentry is put and released
=> superblock associated with the dentry is put
=> /mnt/b is unmounted
This patch makes cifs_d_revalidate() return the error instead of 0
(invalid) when cifs_revalidate_dentry() fails, except for ENOENT (file
deleted) and ESTALE (file recreated).

local_db_save() is called at the start of exc_debug_kernel(), reads DR7 and
disables breakpoints to prevent recursion.
When running in a guest (X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR), local_db_save() reads the
per-cpu variable cpu_dr7 to check whether a breakpoint is active or not
before it accesses DR7.
A data breakpoint on cpu_dr7 therefore results in infinite #DB recursion.
Disallow data breakpoints on cpu_dr7 to prevent that.

When FSGSBASE is enabled, paranoid_entry() fetches the per-CPU GSBASE value
via __per_cpu_offset or pcpu_unit_offsets.
When a data breakpoint is set on __per_cpu_offset[cpu] (read-write
operation), the specific CPU will be stuck in an infinite #DB loop.
RCU will try to send an NMI to the specific CPU, but it is not working
either since NMI also relies on paranoid_entry(). Which means it's
undebuggable.

Patch series "kasan: Fix metadata detection for KASAN_HW_TAGS", v5.
With the introduction of KASAN_HW_TAGS, kasan_report() currently assumes
that every location in memory has valid metadata associated. This is
due to the fact that addr_has_metadata() returns always true.
As a consequence of this, an invalid address (e.g. NULL pointer
address) passed to kasan_report() when KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled, leads
to a kernel panic.
Example below, based on arm64:
BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in 0x0

This series fixes the behavior of addr_has_metadata() that now returns
true only when the address is valid.
This patch (of 2):
With the introduction of KASAN_HW_TAGS, kasan_report() accesses the
metadata only when addr_has_metadata() succeeds.
Add a comment to make sure that the preconditions to the function are
explicitly clarified.
