<content type='text'>
commit 54a7151b1496cddbb7a83546b7998103e98edc88 upstream.

Fix commit 56067812d5b0 ("kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for
emitting relative CRCs") where CRCs are interpreted in host byte order
rather than proper kernel byte order. The bug is conditional on
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS.

For example, when loading a BE module into a BE kernel compiled with a LE
system, the error "disagrees about version of symbol module_layout" is
produced. A message such as "Found checksum D7FA6856 vs module 5668FAD7"
will be given with debug enabled, which indicates an obvious endian
problem within __kcrctab within the kernel image.

The general solution is to use the macro TO_NATIVE, as is done in
similar cases throughout modpost.c. With this correction it has been
verified that a BE kernel compiled with a LE system accepts BE modules.

This change has also been verified with a LE kernel compiled with a LE
system, in which case TO_NATIVE returns its value unmodified since the
byte orders match. This is by far the common case.

[ Upstream commit b058809bfc8faeb7b7cae047666e23375a060059 ]

A bug is present in GDB which causes early string termination when
parsing variables.  This has been reported [0], but we should ensure
that we can support at least basic printing of the core kernel strings.

For current gdb version (has been tested with 7.3 and 8.1), 'lx-version'
only prints one character.

  (gdb) lx-version
  L(gdb)

This can be fixed by casting 'linux_banner' as (char *).

  (gdb) lx-version
  Linux version 4.19.0-rc1+ (changbin@acer) (gcc version 7.3.0 (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3)) #21 SMP Sat Sep 1 21:43:30 CST 2018

[ Upstream commit 67a28de47faa83585dd644bd4c31e5a1d9346c50 ]

Running something like:

	decodecode vmlinux .

leads to interested results where not only the leading "." gets stripped
from the displayed paths, but also anywhere in the string, displaying
something like:

	kvm_vcpu_check_block (arch/arm64/kvm/virt/kvm/kvm_mainc:2141)

which doesn't help further processing.

Fix it by only stripping the base path if it is a prefix of the path.

[ Upstream commit 5818c683a619c534c113e1f66d24f636defc29bc ]

If an ARM mapping symbol shares an address with a valid symbol,
find_elf_symbol can currently return the mapping symbol instead, as the
symbol is not validated. This can result in confusing warnings:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x18f4028): Section mismatch in reference
  from the function set_reset_devices() to the variable .init.text:$x.0

This change adds a call to is_valid_name to find_elf_symbol, similarly
to how it's already used in find_elf_symbol2.

<title>kconfig: fix memory leak when EOF is encountered in quotation</title>

[ Upstream commit fbac5977d81cb2b2b7e37b11c459055d9585273c ]

An unterminated string literal followed by new line is passed to the
parser (with "multi-line strings not supported" warning shown), then
handled properly there.

On the other hand, an unterminated string literal at end of file is
never passed to the parser, then results in memory leak.

[Test Code]

  ----------(Kconfig begin)----------
  source "Kconfig.inc"

  config A
          bool "a"
  -----------(Kconfig end)-----------

  --------(Kconfig.inc begin)--------
  config B
          bool "b\No new line at end of file
  ---------(Kconfig.inc end)---------

[Summary from Valgrind]

  Before the fix:

    LEAK SUMMARY:
       definitely lost: 16 bytes in 1 blocks
       ...

  After the fix:

    LEAK SUMMARY:
       definitely lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
       ...

Eliminate the memory leak path by handling this case. Of course, such
a Kconfig file is wrong already, so I will add an error message later.

[ Upstream commit 77c1c0fa8b1477c5799bdad65026ea5ff676da44 ]

Currently, warn_ignore_character() displays invalid file name and
line number.

The lexer should use current_file-&gt;name and yylineno, while the parser
should use zconf_curname() and zconf_lineno().

This difference comes from that the lexer is always going ahead
of the parser. The parser needs to look ahead one token to make a
shift/reduce decision, so the lexer is requested to scan more text
from the input file.

This commit fixes the warning message from warn_ignored_character().

[Test Code]

  ----(Kconfig begin)----
  /
  -----(Kconfig end)-----

[Output]

  Before the fix:

  &lt;none&gt;:0:warning: ignoring unsupported character '/'

  After the fix:

  Kconfig:1:warning: ignoring unsupported character '/'

<content type='text'>
commit 1212f7a16af492d59304ba3abccbcc5b5e41423e upstream.

On arm64, the EFI stub and the kernel proper are essentially the same
binary, although the EFI stub executes at a different virtual address
as the kernel. For this reason, the EFI stub is restricted in the
symbols it can link to, which is ensured by prefixing all EFI stub
symbols with __efistub_ (and emitting __efistub_ prefixed aliases for
routines that may be shared between the core kernel and the stub)

These symbols are leaking into kallsyms, polluting the namespace, so
let's filter them explicitly.

When building to record the mcount locations the kernel uses
KBUILD_CFLAGS but not KBUILD_CPPFLAGS. This means it lacks
-Qunused-arguments when building with clang, resulting in a lot of
noisy warnings.

[ Upstream commit f1733a1d3cd32a9492f4cf866be37bb46e10163d ]

There is actually a space after "sp," like this,

    ffff2000080813c8:       a9bb7bfd        stp     x29, x30, [sp, #-80]!

Right now, checkstack.pl isn't able to print anything on aarch64,
because it won't be able to match the stating objdump line of a function
due to this missing space.  Hence, it displays every stack as zero-size.

After this patch, checkpatch.pl is able to match the start of a
function's objdump, and is then able to calculate each function's stack
correctly.
