commit 91ad11d7cc upstream.
On MIPS calls to _mcount in modules generate 2 instructions to load
the _mcount address (and therefore 2 relocations). The mcount_loc
table should only reference the first of these, so the second is
filtered out by checking the relocation offset and ignoring ones that
immediately follow the previous one seen.
However if a module has an _mcount call at offset 0, the second
relocation would not be filtered out due to old_r_offset == 0
being taken to mean that the current relocation is the first one
seen, and both would end up in the mcount_loc table.
This results in ftrace_make_nop() patching both (adjacent)
instructions to branches over the _mcount call sequence like so:
0xffffffffc08a8000: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8014
0xffffffffc08a8004: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8018
0xffffffffc08a8008: 2d 08 e0 03 move at,ra
...
The second branch is in the delay slot of the first, which is
defined to be unpredictable - on the platform on which this bug was
encountered, it triggers a reserved instruction exception.
Fix by initializing old_r_offset to ~0 and using that instead of 0
to determine whether the current relocation is the first seen.

This patch adds support for advertising optional CPU features over udev
using the modalias, and for declaring compatibility with/dependency upon
such a feature in a module.
The mapping between feature numbers and actual features should be provided
by the architecture in a file called <asm/cpufeature.h> which exports the
following functions/macros:
- cpu_feature(FEAT), a preprocessor macro that maps token FEAT to a
numeric index;
- bool cpu_have_feature(n), returning whether this CPU has support for
feature #n;
- MAX_CPU_FEATURES, an upper bound for 'n' in the previous function.
The feature can then be enabled by setting CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE
for the architecture.
For instance, a module that registers its module init function using
module_cpu_feature_match(FEAT_X, module_init_function)
will be probed automatically when the CPU's support for the 'FEAT_X'
feature is advertised over udev, and will only allow the module to be
loaded by hand if the 'FEAT_X' feature is supported.

Recordmcount utility under scripts is run, after compiling each object,
to find out all the locations of calling _mcount() and put them into
specific seciton named __mcount_loc.
Then linker collects all such information into a table in the kernel image
(between __start_mcount_loc and __stop_mcount_loc) for later use by ftrace.
This patch adds arm64 specific definitions to identify such locations.
There are two types of implementation, C and Perl. On arm64, only C version
is used to build the kernel now that CONFIG_HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT is on.
But Perl version is also maintained.
This patch also contains a workaround just in case where a header file,
elf.h, on host machine doesn't have definitions of EM_AARCH64 nor
R_AARCH64_ABS64. Without them, compiling C version of recordmcount will
fail.

As commit a9468f30b5 "ARM: 7333/2: jump label: detect %c
support for ARM", this patch detects the same thing for ARM64
because some ARM64 GCC versions have the same issue.
Some versions of ARM64 GCC which do support asm goto, do not
support the %c specifier. Since we need the %c to support jump
labels on ARM64, detect that too in the asm goto detection script
to avoid build errors with these versions.

As is done for other architectures, sort the exception table at
build-time rather than during boot.
Since sortextable appears to be a standalone C program relying on the
host elf.h to provide EM_AARCH64, I've had to add a conditional check in
order to allow cross-compilation on machines that aren't running a
bleeding-edge libc-dev.

commit c0ff68f161 upstream.
If headers_install is executed from a deep/long directory structure, the
shell's maximum argument length can be execeeded, which breaks the operation
with:
| make[2]: execvp: /bin/sh: Argument list too long
| make[2]: ***
Instead of passing each files name with the entire path, I give only the file
name without the source path and give this path as a new argument to
headers_install.pl.
Because there is three possible paths, I have tree input-files list, one per
path.

builddeb generates a control file that says the linux-headers package
can only be built for the build system primary architecture. This
breaks cross-building configurations. We should use $debarch for this

Since $debarch is not yet set when generating the control file, set
Architecture: any and use control file variables to fill in the

commit 03b56329f9 upstream.
Commit afe2dab4f6 ("USB: add hex/bcd detection to usb modalias generation")
changed the routine that generates alias ranges. Before that change, only
digits 0-9 were supported; the commit tried to fix the case when the range
includes higher values than 0x9.
Unfortunately, the commit didn't fix the case when the range includes both
0x9 and 0xA, meaning that the final range must look like [x-9A-y] where
x <= 0x9 and y >= 0xA -- instead the [x-9A-x] range was produced.
Modprobe doesn't complain as it sees no difference between no-match and
bad-pattern results of fnmatch().
Fixing this simple bug to fix the aliases.
Also changing the hardcoded beginning of the range to uppercase as all the
other letters are also uppercase in the device version numbers.
Fortunately, this affects only the dvb-usb-dib0700 module, AFAIK.

This commit adds support for embedding PIEs into the kernel, loading them
into genalloc sections, performing necessary relocations, and running code
from them. This allows platforms that need to run code from SRAM, such
an during suspend/resume, to develop that code in C instead of assembly.
Functions and data for each PIE should be grouped into sections with the
__pie(<group>) and __pie_data(<group>) macros respectively. Any symbols or
functions that are to be accessed from outside the PIE should be marked with
EXPORT_PIE_SYMBOL(<sym>). For example:
static struct ddr_timings xyz_timings __pie_data(platformxyz) = {
[...]
};
void __pie(platformxyz) xyz_ddr_on(void *addr)
{
[...]
}
EXPORT_PIE_SYMBOL(xyz_ddr_on);
While the kernel can access exported symbols from the PIE, the PIE cannot
access symbols from the kernel, but can access data from the kernel and
call functions in the kernel so long as addresses are passed into the PIE.
PIEs are loaded from the kernel into a genalloc pool with pie_load_sections.
pie_load_sections allocates space within the pool, copies the neccesary
code/data, and performs any necessary relocations. A chunk identifier is
returned for removing the PIE from the pool, and for translating symbols.
Because the PIEs are dynamically relocated, special accessors must be used
to access PIE symbols from kernel code:
- kern_to_pie(chunk, ptr): Translate a PIE symbol to the virtual address
it is loaded into within the pool.
- fn_to_pie(chunk, ptr): Same as above, but for function pointers.
- sram_to_phys(chunk, addr): Translate a virtual address within a loaded PIE
to a physical address.
Loading a PIE involves three main steps. First a set of common functions to
cover built-ins emitted by gcc (memcpy, memmove, etc) is copied into the pool.
Then the actual PIE code and data is copied into the pool. Because the PIE
code is contained within an overlay with other PIEs, offsets to the common
functions are maintained. Finally, relocations are performed as necessary.

commit f6537f2f0e upstream.
This patch uses CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET to filter symbols which
are not in kernel address space because these symbols are
generally for generating code purpose and can't be run at
kernel mode, so we needn't keep them in /proc/kallsyms.
For example, on ARM there are some symbols which may be
linked in relocatable code section, then perf can't parse
symbols any more from /proc/kallsyms, this patch fixes the
problem (introduced b9b32bf70f)
