[ Upstream commit 1f3aa9002dc6a0d59a4b599b4fc8f01cf43ef014 ] Fix missing error check for memory allocation functions in scripts/mod/modpost.c.

modpost: don't emit section mismatch warnings for compiler optimizations

2017-05-08T05:44:12Z

commit 4a3893d069b788f3570c19c12d9e986e8e15870f upstream. 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.

modpost: expand pattern matching to support substring matches

2017-05-08T05:44:12Z

commit 09c20c032b0f753969ae778d9783d946f054d7fe upstream. 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."

of: fix autoloading due to broken modalias with no 'compatible'

2016-06-20T03:47:45Z

[ Upstream commit b3c0a4dab7e35a9b6d69c0415641d2280fdefb2b ] Because of an improper dereference, a stray 'C' character was output to the modalias when no 'compatible' was specified. This is the case for some old PowerMac drivers which only set the 'name' property. Fix it to let them match again.

aarch64: filter $x from kallsyms

2014-10-02T16:01:51Z

Similar to ARM, AArch64 is generating $x and $d syms... which isn't terribly helpful when looking at %pF output and the like. Filter those out in kallsyms, modpost and when looking at module symbols. Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly complicated. initcall_debug improves: dmesg_before.txt: initcall $x+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 26331 usecs dmesg_after.txt: initcall init_sg+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 15461 usecs Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin Acked-by: Rusty Russell Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas

modpost: simplify file name generation of *.mod.c files

2014-08-27T12:24:11Z

Avoid the variable length array (vla), just use PATH_MAX instead. This not only makes this code clang friedly, it also leads to a code size reduction: text data bss dec hex filename 51765 2224 12416 66405 10365 scripts/mod/modpost.old 51677 2224 12416 66317 1030d scripts/mod/modpost.new Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

modpost: reduce visibility of symbols and constify r/o arrays

2014-08-27T12:24:10Z

Internally used symbols of modpost don't need to be externally visible; make them static. Also constify the string arrays so they resist in the r/o section instead of being runtime writable. Those changes lead to a small size reduction as can be seen below: text data bss dec hex filename 51381 2640 12416 66437 10385 scripts/mod/modpost.old 51765 2224 12416 66405 10365 scripts/mod/modpost.new Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

scripts: modpost: Remove numeric suffix pattern matching

2014-07-27T11:22:46Z

For several years, the pattern "foo$" has effectively been treated as equivalent to "foo" due to a bug in the (misnamed) helper number_prefix(). This hasn't been observed to cause any problems, so remove the broken $ functionality and change all foo$ patterns to foo. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

scripts: modpost: fix compilation warning

2014-07-27T11:22:45Z

The scripts/mod/modpost.c triggers the following warning: scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘remove_dot’: scripts/mod/modpost.c:1710:10: warning: ignoring return value of ‘strtoul’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result] The remove_dot function that calls strtoul does not care about the numeric value of the string that is parsed but only looks for the end of the numeric sequence. As such, it's equivalent to just skip over all digits. Signed-off-by: Michal Nazarewicz Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell
