commit 548b8b5168c90c42e88f70fcf041b4ce0b8e7aa8 upstream.

When building for an embedded target using Yocto, we're sometimes
observing that the version string that gets built into vmlinux (and
thus what uname -a reports) differs from the path under /lib/modules/
where modules get installed in the rootfs, but only in the length of
the -gabc123def suffix. Hence modprobe always fails.

The problem is that Yocto has the concept of "sstate" (shared state),
which allows different developers/buildbots/etc. to share build
artifacts, based on a hash of all the metadata that went into building
that artifact - and that metadata includes all dependencies (e.g. the
compiler used etc.). That normally works quite well; usually a clean
build (without using any sstate cache) done by one developer ends up
being binary identical to a build done on another host. However, one
thing that can cause two developers to end up with different builds
[and thus make one's vmlinux package incompatible with the other's
kernel-dev package], which is not captured by the metadata hashing, is
this `git describe`: The output of that can be affected by

(1) git version: before 2.11 git defaulted to a minimum of 7, since
2.11 (git.git commit e6c587) the default is dynamic based on the
number of objects in the repo
(2) hence even if both run the same git version, the output can differ
based on how many remotes are being tracked (or just lots of local
development branches or plain old garbage)
(3) and of course somebody could have a core.abbrev config setting in
~/.gitconfig

So in order to avoid `uname -a` output relying on such random details
of the build environment which are rather hard to ensure are
consistent between developers and buildbots, make sure the abbreviated
sha1 always consists of exactly 12 hex characters. That is consistent
with the current rule for -stable patches, and is almost always enough
to identify the head commit unambigously - in the few cases where it
does not, the v5.4.3-00021- prefix would certainly nail it down.

[Adapt to `` vs $() differences between 5.4 and upstream.]

[ Upstream commit efe84d408bf41975db8506d3a1cc02e794e2309c ]

When building with

	$ HOST_EXTRACFLAGS=-g make

the expectation is that host tools are built with debug informations.
This however doesn't happen if the Makefile assigns a new value to the
HOST_EXTRACFLAGS instead of appending to it. So use += instead of := for
the first assignment.

<title>checkpatch: fix the usage of capture group ( ... )</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f2cd86225c89a51e5a5633833d107a46e1affad6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 13e45417cedbfc44b1926124b1846f5ee8c6ba4a upstream.

The usage of "capture group (...)" in the immediate condition after `&amp;&amp;`
results in `$1` being uninitialized.  This issues a warning "Use of
uninitialized value $1 in regexp compilation at ./scripts/checkpatch.pl
line 2638".

I noticed this bug while running checkpatch on the set of commits from
v5.7 to v5.8-rc1 of the kernel on the commits with a diff content in
their commit message.

This bug was introduced in the script by commit e518e9a59ec3
("checkpatch: emit an error when there's a diff in a changelog").  It
has been in the script since then.

The author intended to store the match made by capture group in variable
`$1`.  This should have contained the name of the file as `[\w/]+`
matched.  However, this couldn't be accomplished due to usage of capture
group and `$1` in the same regular expression.

Fix this by placing the capture group in the condition before `&amp;&amp;`.
Thus, `$1` can be initialized to the text that capture group matches
thereby setting it to the desired and required value.

commit e4a42c82e943b97ce124539fcd7a47445b43fa0d upstream.

Redefine GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP variables as KGZIP, KBZIP2, KLZOP resp.
GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP env variables are reserved by the tools. The original
attempt to redefine them internally doesn't work in makefiles/scripts
intercall scenarios, e.g., "make GZIP=gzip bindeb-pkg" and results in
broken builds. There can be other broken build commands because of this,
so the universal solution is to use non-reserved env variables for the
compression tools.

commit 8dfb61dcbaceb19a5ded5e9c9dcf8d05acc32294 upstream.

Allow user to use alternative implementations of compression tools,
such as pigz, pbzip2, pxz. For example, multi-threaded tools to
speed up the build:
$ make GZIP=pigz BZIP2=pbzip2

Variables _GZIP, _BZIP2, _LZOP are used internally because original env
vars are reserved by the tools. The use of GZIP in gzip tool is obsolete
since 2015. However, alternative implementations (e.g., pigz) still rely
on it. BZIP2, BZIP, LZOP vars are not obsolescent.

The credit goes to @grsecurity.

As a sidenote, for multi-threaded lzma, xz compression one can use:
$ export XZ_OPT="--threads=0"

If you right-click in the ConfigList window, you will see the following
messages in the console:

QObject::connect: No such slot QAction::setOn(bool) in scripts/kconfig/qconf.cc:888
QObject::connect:  (sender name:   'config')

QObject::connect: No such slot QAction::setOn(bool) in scripts/kconfig/qconf.cc:906
QObject::connect:  (sender name:   'config')

Right, there is no such slot in QAction. I think this is a typo of
setChecked.

Due to this bug, when you toggled the menu "Option-&gt;Show Name/Range/Data"
the state of the context menu was not previously updated. Fix this.

If you right-click the first row in the option tree, the pop-up menu
shows up, but if you right-click the second row or below, the event
is ignored due to the following check:

  if (e-&gt;y() &lt;= header()-&gt;geometry().bottom()) {

Perhaps, the intention was to show the pop-menu only when the tree
header was right-clicked, but this handler is not called in that case.

Since the origin of e-&gt;y() starts from the bottom of the header,
this check is odd.

Going forward, you can right-click anywhere in the tree to get the
pop-up menu.

[ Upstream commit ea0eada45632f4807b2f49de951072283e2d781c ]

Currently, if a section has a relocation to '_mcount' symbol, a new
__mcount_loc entry will be added whatever the relocation type is.
This is problematic when a relocation to '_mcount' is in the middle of a
section and is not a call for ftrace use.

Such relocation could be generated with below code for example:
    bool is_mcount(unsigned long addr)
    {
        return (target == (unsigned long) &amp;_mcount);
    }

With this snippet of code, ftrace will try to patch the mcount location
generated by this code on module load and fail with:

    Call trace:
     ftrace_bug+0xa0/0x28c
     ftrace_process_locs+0x2f4/0x430

commit 55c7549819e438f40a3ef1d8ac5c38b73390bcb7 upstream.

When running `make coccicheck` in report mode using the
add_namespace.cocci file, it will fail for files that contain
MODULE_LICENSE. Those match the replacement precondition, but spatch
errors out as virtual.ns is not set.

In order to fix that, add the virtual rule nsdeps and only do search and
replace if that rule has been explicitly requested.

In order to make spatch happy in report mode, we also need a dummy rule,
as otherwise it errors out with "No rules apply". Using a script:python
rule appears unrelated and odd, but this is the shortest I could come up
with.

Adjust scripts/nsdeps accordingly to set the nsdeps rule when run trough
`make nsdeps`.
