module: Add module name to modinfo

2017-05-23T21:08:31Z

Accessing the mod structure (e.g. for mod->name) prior to having completed check_modstruct_version() can result in writing garbage to the error logs if the layout of the mod structure loaded from disk doesn't match the running kernel's mod structure layout. This kind of mismatch will become much more likely if a kernel is built with different randomization seed for the struct layout randomization plugin. Instead, add and use a new modinfo string for logging the module name. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu

kbuild: Consolidate header generation from ASM offset information

2017-04-12T20:43:37Z

Largely redundant code is used in different places to generate C headers from offset information extracted from assembly language output. Consolidate the code in Makefile.lib and use this instead. Signed-off-by: Matthias Kaehlcke Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

objtool, modules: Discard objtool annotation sections for modules

2017-03-01T19:32:25Z

The '__unreachable' and '__func_stack_frame_non_standard' sections are only used at compile time. They're discarded for vmlinux but they should also be discarded for modules. Since this is a recurring pattern, prefix the section names with ".discard.". It's a nice convention and vmlinux.lds.h already discards such sections. Also remove the 'a' (allocatable) flag from the __unreachable section since it doesn't make sense for a discarded section.

kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for emitting relative CRCs

2017-02-03T16:28:25Z

This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following: - introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS - adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols as references into the .rodata section - making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols by the section index (SHN_ABS) - making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

kbuild: modpost warn if export version crc is missing

2016-11-29T14:58:57Z

This catches the failing ceph CRC on with: LD vmlinux.o MODPOST vmlinux.o WARNING: EXPORT symbol "ceph_monc_do_statfs" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned. When the modules referring to exported symbols are built, there is an existing warning for missing CRC, but it's not always the case such any such module will be built, and in any case it is useful to get a warning at the source. This gets a little verbose with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH, producing a warning with each object linked, but I didn't think that warranted extra complexity to avoid.

modpost: free allocated memory

nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus

2016-10-08T01:46:30Z

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN". We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new .cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section. This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

staging: fsl-mc: add support for device table matching

2016-06-27T00:14:03Z

Move the definition of fsl_mc_device_id to its proper location in mod_devicetable.h, and add fsl-mc bus support to devicetable-offsets.c and file2alias.c to enable device table matching. With this patch udev based module loading of fsl-mc drivers is supported. Signed-off-by: Stuart Yoder Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

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

2016-06-08T00:40:20Z

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.
