cpumask: fix spurious cpumask_of_node() on non-NUMA multi-node configs

2017-09-07T06:35:40Z

commit b339752d054fb32863418452dff350a1086885b1 upstream. When !NUMA, cpumask_of_node(@node) equals cpu_online_mask regardless of @node. The assumption seems that if !NUMA, there shouldn't be more than one node and thus reporting cpu_online_mask regardless of @node is correct. However, that assumption was broken years ago to support DISCONTIGMEM and whether a system has multiple nodes or not is separately controlled by NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES. This means that, on a system with !NUMA && NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, cpumask_of_node() will report cpu_online_mask for all possible nodes, indicating that the CPUs are associated with multiple nodes which is an impossible configuration. This bug has been around forever but doesn't look like it has caused any noticeable symptoms. However, it triggers a WARN recently added to workqueue to verify NUMA affinity configuration. Fix it by reporting empty cpumask on non-zero nodes if !NUMA. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Reported-and-tested-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kbuild: linker script do not match C names unless LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is configured

2017-08-30T08:21:49Z

commit cb87481ee89dbd6609e227afbf64900fb4e5c930 upstream. The .data and .bss sections were modified in the generic linker script to pull in sections named .data., which are generated by gcc with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections options. The problem with this pattern is it can also match section names that Linux defines explicitly, e.g., .data.unlikely. This can cause Linux sections to get moved into the wrong place. The way to avoid this is to use ".." separators for explicit section names (the dot character is valid in a section name but not a C identifier). However currently there are sections which don't follow this rule, so for now just disable the wild card by default.

asm-prototypes: Clear any CPP defines before declaring the functions

2017-01-12T10:39:07Z

commit c7858bf16c0b2cc62f475f31e6df28c3a68da1d6 upstream. The asm-prototypes.h file is used to provide dummy function declarations for genksyms, when processing asm files with EXPORT_SYMBOL. Make sure that any architecture defines get out of our way. x86 currently has an issue with memcpy on 64bit with CONFIG_KMEMCHECK=y and with memset/__memset on 32bit: $ cat init/test.c #include $ make -s init/test.o In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/string.h:4:0, from ./include/linux/string.h:18, from ./include/linux/bitmap.h:8, from ./include/linux/cpumask.h:11, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/cpumask.h:4, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h:10, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h:20, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeature.h:4, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:52, from ./include/linux/thread_info.h:25, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h:6, from ./include/linux/preempt.h:59, from ./include/linux/spinlock.h:50, from ./include/linux/seqlock.h:35, from ./include/linux/time.h:5, from ./include/uapi/linux/timex.h:56, from ./include/linux/timex.h:56, from ./include/linux/sched.h:19, from ./include/linux/uaccess.h:4, from ./arch/x86/include/asm/asm-prototypes.h:2, from init/test.c:1: ./arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h:52:47: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘(’ token #define memcpy(dst, src, len) __inline_memcpy((dst), (src), (len)) ./include/asm-generic/asm-prototypes.h:6:14: note: in expansion of macro ‘memcpy’ extern void *memcpy(void *, const void *, __kernel_size_t); ^ ...

x86/kbuild: enable modversions for symbols exported from asm

2017-01-06T09:40:17Z

commit 334bb773876403eae3457d81be0b8ea70f8e4ccc upstream. Commit 4efca4ed ("kbuild: modversions for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") adds modversion support for symbols exported from asm files. Architectures must include C-style declarations for those symbols in asm/asm-prototypes.h in order for them to be versioned. Add these declarations for x86, and an architecture-independent file that can be used for common symbols. With f27c2f6 reverting 8ab2ae6 ("default exported asm symbols to zero") we produce a scary warning on x86, this commit fixes that.

Revert "default exported asm symbols to zero"

2016-12-07T16:39:00Z

This reverts commit 8ab2ae655bfe384335c5b6b0d6041e0ddce26b00. I loved that commit because of how it explained what the problem with newer versions of binutils were, but the actual patch itself turns out to not work very well. It has two problems: - a zero CRC value isn't actually right. It happens to work for the case where both sides of the equation fail at giving the symbol a crc, but there are cases where the users of the exported symbol get the right crc (due to seeing the C declarations), but the actual exporting itself does not (due to the whole weak asm symbol issue). So then the module load fails after all - we did have a crc for the symbol, but we couldn't match it with the loaded module. - it seems that the alpha assembler has special semantics for the '.set' directive, and on alpha it doesn't actually set the value of the specified symbol at all, it is instead used to set various assembly modes (eg ".set noat" and ".set noreorder"). So using ".set" to set the symbol value would just cause build failures on alpha. I'm sure we'll find some other workaround for these issues (hopefully that involves getting rid of modversions entirely some day, but people are also talking about just using smarter tools). But for now we'll just fall back on commit faaae2a58143 ("Re-enable CONFIG_MODVERSIONS in a slightly weaker form") that just let's a missing crc through.

default exported asm symbols to zero

2016-12-02T16:51:22Z

With binutils-2.26 and before, a weak missing symbol was kept during the final link, and a missing CRC for an export would lead to that CRC being treated as zero implicitly. With binutils-2.27, the crc symbol gets dropped, and any module trying to use it will fail to load. This sets the weak CRC symbol to zero explicitly, making it defined in vmlinux, which in turn lets us load the modules referring to that CRC. The comment above the __CRC_SYMBOL macro suggests that this was always the intention, although it also seems that all symbols defined in C have a correct CRC these days, and only the exports that are now done in assembly need this.

mm: kmemleak: scan .data.ro_after_init

2016-11-11T16:12:37Z

Limit the number of kmemleak false positives by including .data.ro_after_init in memory scanning. To achieve this we need to add symbols for start and end of the section to the linker scripts. The problem was been uncovered by commit 56989f6d8568 ("genetlink: mark families as __ro_after_init").

percpu: use notrace variant of preempt_disable/preempt_enable

2016-11-08T09:29:44Z

Commit 345ddcc882d8 ("ftrace: Have set_ftrace_pid use the bitmap like events do") added a couple of this_cpu_read calls to the ftrace code. On x86 this is not a problem, since it has single instructions to read percpu data. Other architectures which use the generic variant now have additional preempt_disable and preempt_enable calls in the core ftrace code. This may lead to recursive calls and in result to a dead machine, e.g. if preemption and debugging options are enabled. To fix this use the notrace variant of preempt_disable and preempt_enable within the generic percpu code.

kconfig.h: remove config_enabled() macro

2016-10-28T01:43:43Z

The use of config_enabled() is ambiguous. For config options, IS_ENABLED(), IS_REACHABLE(), etc. will make intention clearer. Sometimes config_enabled() has been used for non-config options because it is useful to check whether the given symbol is defined or not. I have been tackling on deprecating config_enabled(), and now is the time to finish this work. Some new users have appeared for v4.9-rc1, but it is trivial to replace them: - arch/x86/mm/kaslr.c replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() because CONFIG_X86_ESPFIX64 and CONFIG_EFI are boolean. - include/asm-generic/export.h replace config_enabled() with __is_defined(). Then, config_enabled() can be removed now. Going forward, please use IS_ENABLED(), IS_REACHABLE(), etc. for config options, and __is_defined() for non-config symbols.
