2015-04-22modpost: don't emit section mismatch warnings for compiler optimizationsPaul Gortmaker1-0/+21
Currently an allyesconfig build [gcc-4.9.1] can generate the following: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x3864): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpumask_empty.constprop.3() to the variable .init.data:nmi_ipi_mask which comes from the cpumask_empty usage in arch/x86/kernel/nmi_selftest.c. Normally we would not see a symbol entry for cpumask_empty since it is: static inline bool cpumask_empty(const struct cpumask *srcp) however in this case, the variant of the symbol gets emitted when GCC does constant propagation optimization. Fix things up so that any locally optimized constprop variants don't warn when accessing variables that live in the __init sections.

2015-04-22modpost: expand pattern matching to support substring matchesPaul Gortmaker1-1/+11
Currently the match() function supports a leading * to match any prefix and a trailing * to match any suffix. However there currently is not a combination of both that can be used to target matches of whole families of functions that share a common substring. Here we expand the *foo and foo* match to also support *foo* with the goal of targeting compiler generated symbol names that contain strings like ".constprop." and ".isra."

2015-04-22modpost: fix extable entry size calculation.Quentin Casasnovas1-6/+10
As Guenter pointed out, we were never really calculating the extable entry size because the pointer arithmetic was simply wrong. We want to check we're handling the second relocation in __ex_table to infer an entry size, but we were using (void*) pointers instead of Elf_Rel[a]* ones. This fixes the problem by moving that check in the caller (since we can deal with different types of relocations) and add is_second_extable_reloc() to make the whole thing more readable.

2015-04-22modpost: fix inverted logic in is_extable_fault_address().Quentin Casasnovas1-1/+6
As Guenter pointed out, we want to assert that extable_entry_size has been discovered and not the other way around. Moreover, this sanity check is only valid when we're not dealing with the first relocation in __ex_table, since we have not discovered the extable entry size at that point. This was leading to a divide-by-zero on some architectures and make the build fail.

2015-04-13modpost: handle relocations mismatch in __ex_table.Quentin Casasnovas1-0/+141
__ex_table is a simple table section where each entry is a pair of addresses - the first address is an address which can fault in kernel space, and the second address points to where the kernel should jump to when handling that fault. This is how copy_from_user() does not crash the kernel if userspace gives a borked pointer for example. If one of these addresses point to a non-executable section, something is seriously wrong since it either means the kernel will never fault from there or it will not be able to jump to there. As both cases are serious enough, we simply error out in these cases so the build fails and the developper has to fix the issue. In case the section is executable, but it isn't referenced in our list of authorized sections to point to from __ex_table, we just dump a warning giving more information about it. We do this in case the new section is executable but isn't supposed to be executed by the kernel. This happened with .altinstr_replacement, which is executable but is only used to copy instructions from - we should never have our instruction pointer pointing in .altinstr_replacement. Admitedly, a proper fix in that case would be to just set .altinstr_replacement NX, but we need to warn about future cases like this.

2015-03-31MIPS: Add CDMM bus supportJames Hogan2-0/+19
Add MIPS Common Device Memory Map (CDMM) support in the form of a bus in the standard Linux device model. Each device attached via CDMM is discoverable via an 8-bit type identifier and may contain a number of blocks of memory mapped registers in the CDMM region. IRQs are expected to be handled separately. Due to the per-cpu (per-VPE for MT cores) nature of the CDMM devices, all the driver callbacks take place from workqueues which are run on the right CPU for the device in question, so that the driver doesn't need to be as concerned about which CPU it is running on. Callbacks also exist for when CPUs are taken offline, so that any per-CPU resources used by the driver can be disabled so they don't get forcefully migrated. CDMM devices are created as children of the CPU device they are attached to. Any existing CDMM configuration by the bootloader will be inherited, however platforms wishing to enable CDMM should implement the weak mips_cdmm_phys_base() function (see asm/cdmm.h) so that the bus driver knows where it should put the CDMM region in the physical address space if the bootloader hasn't already enabled it. A mips_cdmm_early_probe() function is also provided to allow early boot or particularly low level code to set up the CDMM region and probe for a specific device type, for example early console or KGDB IO drivers for the EJTAG Fast Debug Channel (FDC) CDMM device.

This patch aligns the x86 handling so that it (a) reuses some more code that is now generic; (b) uses the generic format for the modalias module metadata entry, i.e., it now uses 'cpu:type:x86,venVVVVfamFFFFmodMMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' instead of the 'x86cpu:vendor:VVVV:family:FFFF:model:MMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' that was used before.

2014-02-19cpu: add generic support for CPU feature based module autoloadingArd Biesheuvel2-0/+13
This patch adds support for advertising optional CPU features over udev using the modalias, and for declaring compatibility with/dependency upon such a feature in a module. The mapping between feature numbers and actual features should be provided by the architecture in a file called <asm/cpufeature.h> which exports the following functions/macros: - cpu_feature(FEAT), a preprocessor macro that maps token FEAT to a numeric index; - bool cpu_have_feature(n), returning whether this CPU has support for feature #n; - MAX_CPU_FEATURES, an upper bound for 'n' in the previous function. The feature can then be enabled by setting CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE for the architecture. For instance, a module that registers its module init function using module_cpu_feature_match(FEAT_X, module_init_function) will be probed automatically when the CPU's support for the 'FEAT_X' feature is advertised over udev, and will only allow the module to be loaded by hand if the 'FEAT_X' feature is supported.

2014-02-07Modpost: fixed USB alias generation for ranges including 0x9 and 0xAJan Moskyto Matejka1-2/+2
Commit afe2dab4f6 ("USB: add hex/bcd detection to usb modalias generation") changed the routine that generates alias ranges. Before that change, only digits 0-9 were supported; the commit tried to fix the case when the range includes higher values than 0x9. Unfortunately, the commit didn't fix the case when the range includes both 0x9 and 0xA, meaning that the final range must look like [x-9A-y] where x <= 0x9 and y >= 0xA -- instead the [x-9A-x] range was produced. Modprobe doesn't complain as it sees no difference between no-match and bad-pattern results of fnmatch(). Fixing this simple bug to fix the aliases. Also changing the hardcoded beginning of the range to uppercase as all the other letters are also uppercase in the device version numbers. Fortunately, this affects only the dvb-usb-dib0700 module, AFAIK.

2013-09-23modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build failsGuenter Roeck1-1/+12
Commit ea4054a23 (modpost: handle huge numbers of modules) added support for building a large number of modules. Unfortunately, the commit changed the semantics of the makefile: Instead of passing only existing object files to modpost, make now passes all expected object files. If make was started with option -i, this results in a modpost error if a single file failed to build. Example with the current btrfs build falure on m68k: fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory make[1]: [__modpost] Error 1 (ignored) This error is followed by lots of errors such as: m68k-linux-gcc: error: arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.c: No such file or directory m68k-linux-gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make[1]: [arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.o] Error 1 (ignored) This doesn't matter much for normal builds, but it is annoying for builds started with "make -i" due to the large number of secondary errors. Those errors unnececessarily clog any error log and make it difficult to find the real errors in the build. Fix the problem by adding a new parameter '-n' to modpost. If this parameter is specified, modpost reports but ignores missing object files. With this patch, error output from above problem is (with make -i): m68k-linux-ld: cannot find fs/btrfs/ioctl.o: No such file or directory make[2]: [fs/btrfs/btrfs.o] Error 1 (ignored) ... fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory (ignored) Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Michael Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
