<id>urn:sha1:8c627d4b15de928cad99a8017e3cb115aaf01a5c</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 8782e7cab51b6bf01a5a86471dd82228af1ac185 ]

Historically, the relocation symbols for ORC entries have only been
section symbols:

  .text+0: sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:call end:0

However, the Clang assembler is aggressive about stripping section
symbols.  In that case we will need to use function symbols:

  freezing_slow_path+0: sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:call end:0

In preparation for the generation of such entries in "objtool orc
generate", add support for reading them in "objtool orc dump".

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit bd841d6154f5f41f8a32d3c1b0bc229e326e640a ]

CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP causes GCC to emit a UD2 whenever it encounters an
unreachable code path.  This includes __builtin_unreachable().  Because
the BUG() macro uses __builtin_unreachable() after it emits its own UD2,
this results in a double UD2.  In this case objtool rightfully detects
that the second UD2 is unreachable:

  init/main.o: warning: objtool: repair_env_string()+0x1c8: unreachable instruction

We weren't able to figure out a way to get rid of the double UD2s, so
just silence the warning.

<content type='text'>
commit b401efc120a399dfda1f4d2858a4de365c9b08ef upstream.

If a switch jump table's indirect branch is in a ".cold" subfunction in
.text.unlikely, objtool doesn't detect it, and instead prints a false
warning:

  drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.o: warning: objtool: v4l_print_format.cold()+0xd6: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  drivers/hwmon/max6650.o: warning: objtool: max6650_probe.cold()+0xa5: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  drivers/media/dvb-frontends/drxk_hard.o: warning: objtool: init_drxk.cold()+0x16f: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame

Fix it by comparing the function, instead of the section and offset.

[ Upstream commit 8580bed7e751e6d4f17881e059daf3cb37ba4717 ]

Building objtool with ARCH=x86_64 fails with:

   $make ARCH=x86_64 -C tools/objtool
   ...
     CC       arch/x86/decode.o
   arch/x86/decode.c:10:22: fatal error: asm/insn.h: No such file or directory

   compilation terminated.
   mv: cannot stat ‘arch/x86/.decode.o.tmp’: No such file or directory
   make[2]: *** [arch/x86/decode.o] Error 1
   ...

The root cause is that the command-line variable 'ARCH' cannot be
overridden.  It can be replaced by 'SRCARCH', which is defined in
'tools/scripts/Makefile.arch'.

commit 6ec14aa7a58a1c2fb303692f8cb1ff82d9abd10a upstream.

The sync-check.sh script prints out the path due to a "cd -" at the end
of the script, even on silent builds. This isn't even needed, since the
script is executed in our build instead of sourced (so it won't change
the working directory of the surrounding build anyway).

Just remove the cd to make the build silent.

[ Upstream commit 9a50dcaf0416a43e1fe411dc61a99c8333c90119 ]

The new check_zeroed_user() function uses variable shifts inside of a
user_access_begin()/user_access_end() section and that results in GCC
emitting __ubsan_handle_shift_out_of_bounds() calls, even though
through value range analysis it would be able to see that the UB in
question is impossible.

Annotate and whitelist this UBSAN function; continued use of
user_access_begin()/user_access_end() will undoubtedly result in
further uses of function.

Explicitly check kvm_rebooting in kvm_spurious_fault() prior to invoking
BUG(), as opposed to assuming the caller has already done so.  Letting
kvm_spurious_fault() be called "directly" will allow VMX to better
optimize its low level assembly flows.

As a happy side effect, kvm_spurious_fault() no longer needs to be
marked as a dead end since it doesn't unconditionally BUG().

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Kernel side changes:

   - Improved kbprobes robustness

   - Intel PEBS support for PT hardware tracing

   - Other Intel PT improvements: high order pages memory footprint
     reduction and various related cleanups

   - Misc cleanups

  The perf tooling side has been very busy in this cycle, with over 300
  commits. This is an incomplete high-level summary of the many
  improvements done by over 30 developers:

   - Lots of updates to the following tools:

      'perf c2c'
      'perf config'
      'perf record'
      'perf report'
      'perf script'
      'perf test'
      'perf top'
      'perf trace'

   - Updates to libperf and libtraceevent, and a consolidation of the
     proliferation of x86 instruction decoder libraries.

   - Vendor event updates for Intel and PowerPC CPUs,

   - Updates to hardware tracing tooling for ARM and Intel CPUs,

   - ... and lots of other changes and cleanups - see the shortlog and
     Git log for details"

If the build user has the CFLAGS variable set in their environment,
objtool blindly appends to it, which can cause unexpected behavior.

Clobber CFLAGS to ensure consistent objtool compilation behavior.

Since we need to build this in !x86, we need to explicitely use the x86
files, not things like asm/insn.h, so we intentionally differ from the
master copy in the kernel sources, add -I diff directives to ignore just
these differences when checking for drift.
