commit 28438794aba47a27e922857d27b31b74e8559143 upstream.

Since commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols"),
EXPORT_SYMBOL* is placed in the individual section ___ksymtab(_gpl)+&lt;sym&gt;
(3 leading underscores instead of 2).

Since then, modpost cannot detect the bad combination of EXPORT_SYMBOL
and __init/__exit.

Fix the .fromsec field.

[ Upstream commit dcea997beed694cbd8705100ca1a6eb0d886de69 ]

If a function lives in a section other than .text, but .text also exists
in the object, faddr2line may wrongly assume .text.  This can result in
comically wrong output.  For example:

  $ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x1c
  enter_from_user_mode+0x1c/0x30:
  find_next_bit at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/./include/linux/find.h:40
  (inlined by) perf_clear_dirty_counters at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/arch/x86/events/core.c:2504

Fix it by passing the section name to addr2line, unless the object file
is vmlinux, in which case the symbol table uses absolute addresses.

MAGIC_START("IKCFG_ST") and MAGIC_END("IKCFG_ED") are moved out
from the kernel_config_data variable.

Thus, we parse kernel_config_data directly instead of considering
offset of MAGIC_START and MAGIC_END.

<title>modpost: fix undefined behavior of is_arm_mapping_symbol()</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit d6b732666a1bae0df3c3ae06925043bba34502b1 ]

The return value of is_arm_mapping_symbol() is unpredictable when "$"
is passed in.

strchr(3) says:
  The strchr() and strrchr() functions return a pointer to the matched
  character or NULL if the character is not found. The terminating null
  byte is considered part of the string, so that if c is specified as
  '\0', these functions return a pointer to the terminator.

When str[1] is '\0', strchr("axtd", str[1]) is not NULL, and str[2] is
referenced (i.e. buffer overrun).

Test code
---------

  char str1[] = "abc";
  char str2[] = "ab";

  strcpy(str1, "$");
  strcpy(str2, "$");

  printf("test1: %d\n", is_arm_mapping_symbol(str1));
  printf("test2: %d\n", is_arm_mapping_symbol(str2));

Result
------

  test1: 0
  test2: 1

<id>urn:sha1:a53131a69515dc170707df1ac17f3c4444169b87</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit b5beffa20d83c4e15306c991ffd00de0d8628338 ]

With the `-z unique-symbol` linker flag or any similar mechanism,
it is possible to trigger the following:

ERROR: modpost: "param_set_uint.0" [vmlinux] is a static EXPORT_SYMBOL

The reason is that for now the condition from remove_dot():

if (m &amp;&amp; (s[n + m] == '.' || s[n + m] == 0))

which was designed to test if it's a dot or a '\0' after the suffix
is never satisfied.
This is due to that `s[n + m]` always points to the last digit of a
numeric suffix, not on the symbol next to it (from a custom debug
print added to modpost):

param_set_uint.0, s[n + m] is '0', s[n + m + 1] is '\0'

So it's off-by-one and was like that since 2014.

Fix this for the sake of any potential upcoming features, but don't
bother stable-backporting, as it's well hidden -- apart from that
LD flag, it can be triggered only with GCC LTO which never landed
upstream.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 1d1a0e7c5100d332583e20b40aa8c0a8ed3d7849 ]

There have been some recent reports of faddr2line failures:

  $ scripts/faddr2line sound/soundcore.ko sound_devnode+0x5/0x35
  bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000

  $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x24
  bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000005fe0 end: 0x0000000000005fe0

The problem is that faddr2line is based on 'nm', which has a major
limitation: it doesn't know how to distinguish between different text
sections.  So if an offset exists in multiple text sections in the
object, it may fail.

Rewrite faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on readelf.

<title>x86: Add straight-line-speculation mitigation</title>

[ Upstream commit e463a09af2f0677b9485a7e8e4e70b396b2ffb6f ]

Make use of an upcoming GCC feature to mitigate
straight-line-speculation for x86:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/g:53a643f8568067d7700a9f2facc8ba39974973d3
  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102952
  https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52323

It's built tested on x86_64-allyesconfig using GCC-12 and GCC-11.

Maintenance overhead of this should be fairly low due to objtool
validation.

Size overhead of all these additional int3 instructions comes to:

     text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  22267751	6933356	2011368	31212475	1dc43bb	defconfig-build/vmlinux
  22804126	6933356	1470696	31208178	1dc32f2	defconfig-build/vmlinux.sls

Or roughly 2.4% additional text.

[ Upstream commit 8f0c32c788fffa8e88f995372415864039347c8a ]

Commit b1a1a1a09b46 ("kbuild: lto: postpone objtool") moved objtool_args
to Makefile.lib, so the arguments can be used in Makefile.modfinal as
well as Makefile.build.

With commit 850ded46c642 ("kbuild: Fix TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS with
LTO_CLANG"), module LTO linking came back to scripts/Makefile.build
again.

So, there is no more reason to keep objtool_args in a separate file.

Get it back to the original place, close to the objtool command.

Remove the stale comment too.

<title>gcc-plugins: latent_entropy: use /dev/urandom</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bd17422b9b675414d0f1a5e070d42fe85b785cd6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c40160f2998c897231f8454bf797558d30a20375 upstream.

While the latent entropy plugin mostly doesn't derive entropy from
get_random_const() for measuring the call graph, when __latent_entropy is
applied to a constant, then it's initialized statically to output from
get_random_const(). In that case, this data is derived from a 64-bit
seed, which means a buffer of 512 bits doesn't really have that amount
of compile-time entropy.

This patch fixes that shortcoming by just buffering chunks of
/dev/urandom output and doling it out as requested.

At the same time, it's important that we don't break the use of
-frandom-seed, for people who want the runtime benefits of the latent
entropy plugin, while still having compile-time determinism. In that
case, we detect whether gcc's set_random_seed() has been called by
making a call to get_random_seed(noinit=true) in the plugin init
function, which is called after set_random_seed() is called but before
anything that calls get_random_seed(noinit=false), and seeing if it's
zero or not. If it's not zero, we're in deterministic mode, and so we
just generate numbers with a basic xorshift prng.

Note that we don't detect if -frandom-seed is being used using the
documented local_tick variable, because it's assigned via:
   local_tick = (unsigned) tv.tv_sec * 1000 + tv.tv_usec / 1000;
which may well overflow and become -1 on its own, and so isn't
reliable: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105171

[kees: The 256 byte rnd_buf size was chosen based on average (250),
 median (64), and std deviation (575) bytes of used entropy for a
 defconfig x86_64 build]

commit 69d0db01e210e07fe915e5da91b54a867cda040f upstream.

The object-size sanitizer is redundant to -Warray-bounds, and
inappropriately performs its checks at run-time when all information
needed for the evaluation is available at compile-time, making it quite
difficult to use:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214861

With -Warray-bounds almost enabled globally, it doesn't make sense to
keep this around.
