<id>urn:sha1:d6aa3d86d280737a58bdb8cf43e7d472b42a4191</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 9c8e2f6d3d361439cc6744a094f1c15681b55269 upstream.

When building with -ffunction-sections, the compiler will place each
function into its own ELF section, prefixed with ".text".  For example,
a simple test module with functions test_module_do_work() and
test_module_wq_func():

  % objdump --section-headers test_module.o | awk '/\.text/{print $2}'
  .text
  .text.test_module_do_work
  .text.test_module_wq_func
  .init.text
  .exit.text

Adjust the recordmcount scripts to look for ".text" as a section name
prefix.  This will ensure that those functions will be included in the
__mcount_loc relocations:

  % objdump --reloc --section __mcount_loc test_module.o
  OFFSET           TYPE              VALUE
  0000000000000000 R_X86_64_64       .text.test_module_do_work
  0000000000000008 R_X86_64_64       .text.test_module_wq_func
  0000000000000010 R_X86_64_64       .init.text

[ Upstream commit 93ca696376dd3d44b9e5eae835ffbc84772023ec ]

The kernel test robot reported the following issue:

    CC [M]  drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o
  sh4-linux-objcopy: Unable to change endianness of input file(s)
  sh4-linux-ld: cannot find drivers/soc/litex/.tmp_gl_litex_soc_ctrl.o: No such file or directory
  sh4-linux-objcopy: 'drivers/soc/litex/.tmp_mx_litex_soc_ctrl.o': No such file

The problem is that the format of input file is elf32-shbig-linux, but
sh4-linux-objcopy wants to output a file which format is elf32-sh-linux:

  $ sh4-linux-objdump -d drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o | grep format
  drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o:     file format elf32-shbig-linux

<title>tracing: Avoid calling cc-option -mrecord-mcount for every Makefile</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 07d0408120216b60625c9a5b8012d1c3a907984d upstream.

Currently if CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD is enabled -mrecord-mcount
compiler flag support is tested for every Makefile.

Top 4 cc-option usages:
    511 -mrecord-mcount
     11  -fno-stack-protector
      9 -Wno-override-init
      2 -fsched-pressure

To address that move cc-option from scripts/Makefile.build to top Makefile
and export CC_USING_RECORD_MCOUNT to be used in original place.

While doing that also add -mrecord-mcount to CC_FLAGS_FTRACE (if gcc
actually supports it).

commit ed7d40bc67b8353c677b38c6cdddcdc310c0f452 upstream.

Non gcc-5 builds with CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y and
SKIP_STACK_VALIDATION=1 fail.
Example output:
  /bin/sh: init/.tmp_main.o: Permission denied

commit 96f60dfa5819 ("trace: Use -mcount-record for dynamic ftrace"),
added a mismatched endif.  This causes cmd_objtool to get mistakenly
set.

Relocate endif to balance the newly added -record-mcount check.

<content type='text'>
commit 96f60dfa5819a065bfdd2f2ba0df7d9cbce7f4dd upstream.

gcc 5 supports a new -mcount-record option to generate ftrace
tables directly. This avoids the need to run record_mcount
manually.

Use this option when available.

So far doesn't use -mcount-nop, which also exists now.

This is needed to make ftrace work with LTO because the
normal record-mcount script doesn't run over the link
time output.

It should also improve build times slightly in the general
case.

commit b058809bfc8faeb7b7cae047666e23375a060059 upstream

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

<title>scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: use explicit encoding=utf8 errors=replace</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 46d10a094353c05144f3b0530516bdac3ce7c435 upstream

Use errors=replace because it is never desirable for lx-dmesg to fail on
string decoding errors, not even if the log buffer is corrupt and we
show incorrect info.

The kernel will sometimes print utf8, for example the copyright symbol
from jffs2.  In order to make this work specify 'utf8' everywhere
because python2 otherwise defaults to 'ascii'.

In theory the second errors='replace' is not be required because
everything that can be decoded as utf8 should also be encodable back to
utf8.  But it's better to be extra safe here.  It's worth noting that
this is definitely not true for encoding='ascii', unknown characters are
replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER and they fail to encode back
to ascii.

<content type='text'>
commit c454756f47277b651ad41a5a163499294529e35d upstream

In some cases it is possible for the str() conversion here to throw
encoding errors because log_buf might not point to valid ascii.  For
example:

  (gdb) python print str(gdb.parse_and_eval("log_buf"))
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "&lt;string&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
  UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0303' in
  	position 24: ordinal not in range(128)

Avoid this by explicitly casting to (void *) inside the gdb expression.
