* tag 'devicetree-fixes-for-5.6-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux:
scripts/dtc: Remove redundant YYLOC global declaration
|

gcc 10 will default to -fno-common, which causes this error at link
time:
(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `yylloc'; dtc-lexer.lex.o (symbol from plugin):(.text+0x0): first defined here
This is because both dtc-lexer as well as dtc-parser define the same
global symbol yyloc. Before with -fcommon those were merged into one
defintion. The proper solution would be to to mark this as "extern",
however that leads to:
dtc-lexer.l:26:16: error: redundant redeclaration of 'yylloc' [-Werror=redundant-decls]
26 | extern YYLTYPE yylloc;
| ^~~~~~
In file included from dtc-lexer.l:24:
dtc-parser.tab.h:127:16: note: previous declaration of 'yylloc' was here
127 | extern YYLTYPE yylloc;
| ^~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
which means the declaration is completely redundant and can just be
dropped.

There is the code in the read_symbol function in 'scripts/kallsyms.c':
if (is_ignored_symbol(name, type))
return NULL;
/* Ignore most absolute/undefined (?) symbols. */
if (strcmp(name, "_text") == 0)
_text = addr;
But the is_ignored_symbol function returns true for name="_text" and
type='A'. So the next condition is not executed and the _text variable
is always zero.
It makes the wrong kallsyms_relative_base symbol as a result of the code
(CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE is defined):
if (base_relative) {
output_label("kallsyms_relative_base");
output_address(relative_base);
printf("\n");
}
Because the output_address function uses the _text variable.
So the kallsyms_lookup function and all related functions in the kernel
do not work properly. For example, the stack trace in oops:
Call Trace:
[aa095e58] [809feab8] kobj_ns_ops_tbl+0x7ff09ac8/0x7ff1c1c4 (unreliable)

(uint16_t) st_shndx is limited to 65535(i.e. SHN_XINDEX) so sym_get_data() gets
wrong section index by st_shndx if requested symbol contains extended section
index that is more than 65535. In this case, we need to get proper section index
by .symtab_shndx section.

In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to
move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E
option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol
versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc,
symbol, module).
In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that
suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I
suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are
no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export
type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbcedf44), which is over a decade ago now.
Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the
original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order
to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export
type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the
field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have
a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next
delimiter or end of line will follow.

Clang's -Wpointer-to-int-cast deviates from GCC in that it warns when
casting to enums. The kernel does this in certain places, such as device
tree matches to set the version of the device being used, which allows
the kernel to avoid using a gigantic union.

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.5.8/source/include/linux/mod_devicetable.h#L264
To avoid a ton of false positive warnings, disable this particular part
of the warning, which has been split off into a separate diagnostic so
that the entire warning does not need to be turned off for clang. It
will be visible under W=1 in case people want to go about fixing these
easily and enabling the warning treewide.

When a compiler supports multiple architectures, some compiler features
can be dependent on the target architecture.
This is typical for Clang, which supports multiple LLVM backends.
Even for GCC, we need to take care of biarch compiler cases.
It is not a problem when we evaluate cc-option in Makefiles because
cc-option is tested against the flag in question + $(KBUILD_CFLAGS).
The cc-option in Kconfig, on the other hand, does not accumulate
tested flags. Due to this simplification, it could potentially test
cc-option against a different target.
At first, Kconfig always evaluated cc-option against the host
architecture.
Since commit e8de12fb7cde ("kbuild: Check for unknown options with
cc-option usage in Kconfig and clang"), in case of cross-compiling
with Clang, the target triple is correctly passed to Kconfig.
The case with biarch GCC (and native build with Clang) is still not
handled properly. We need to pass some flags to specify the target
machine bit.
Due to the design, all the macros in Kconfig are expanded in the
parse stage, where we do not know the target bit size yet.
For example, arch/x86/Kconfig allows a user to toggle CONFIG_64BIT.
If a compiler flag -foo depends on the machine bit, it must be tested
twice, one with -m32 and the other with -m64.
However, -m32/-m64 are not always recognized. So, this commits adds
m64-flag and m32-flag macros. They expand to -m32, -m64, respectively
if supported. Or, they expand to an empty string if unsupported.
The typical usage is like this:
config FOO
bool
default $(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -foo) if 64BIT
default $(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -foo)
This is clumsy, but there is no elegant way to handle this in the
current static macro expansion.
There was discussion for static functions vs dynamic functions.
The consensus was to go as far as possible with the static functions.

With Ubuntu 16.04 (and presumably Debian distros of the same age),
the instructions for setting up a python virtual environment should
do so with the python 3 interpreter. On these older distros, the
default python (and virtualenv command) might be python2 based.
Some of the packages that sphinx relies on are now only available
for python3. If you don't specify the python3 interpreter for
the virtualenv, you get errors when doing the pip installs for
various packages
Fix this by adding '-p python3' to the virtualenv recommendation
line.

This if_change_rule is not working properly; it cannot detect any
command line change.
The reason is because cmd-check in scripts/Kbuild.include compares
$(cmd_$@) and $(cmd_$1), but cmd_dtc_dt_yaml does not exist here.
For if_change_rule to work properly, the stem part of cmd_* and rule_*
must match. Because this cmd_and_fixdep invokes cmd_dtc, this rule must
be named rule_dtc.

Recently, I found that get_maintainer was causing me to send emails to
the old addresses for maintainers. Since I usually just trust the
output of get_maintainer to know the right email address, I didn't even
look carefully and fired off two patch series that went to the wrong
place. Oops.
The problem was introduced recently when trying to add signatures from
Fixes. The problem was that these email addresses were added too early
in the process of compiling our list of places to send. Things added to
the list earlier are considered more canonical and when we later added
maintainer entries we ended up deduplicating to the old address.
Here are two examples using mainline commits (to make it easier to
replicate) for the two maintainers that I messed up recently:
$ git format-patch d8549bcd0529~..d8549bcd0529
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-clk-Add-clk_hw*.patch | grep Boyd
Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>...
$ git format-patch 6d1238aa3395~..6d1238aa3395
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-arm64-dts-qcom-qcs404*.patch | grep Andy
Andy Gross <andy.gross@linaro.org>
Let's move the adding of addresses from Fixes: to the end since the
email addresses from these are much more likely to be older.
After this patch the above examples get the right addresses for the two
examples.

Since commit 56d589361572 ("kbuild: do not create orphan built-in.a or
obj-y objects"), scripts/link-vmlinux.sh does nothing when descending
into init/.
Once the version number becomes out of sync between .version and
include/generated/compile.h, it is not self-healing.
[How to reproduce]
$ echo 100 > .version
$ make
You will see the number in the .version is always bigger than that in
compile.h by one. After this, every time you run 'make', the vmlinux is
re-linked even when none of source files is updated.

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.
It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.
This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs
So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)
I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.
The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

produces the .config with CONFIG_EFI=y and CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y,
which does not meet the !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN dependency.
This is because the user choice for CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN vs
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is set by randomize_choice_values() after the
value of CONFIG_EFI is calculated.
When this happens, the has_changed flag should be set.
Currently, it takes the result from the last iteration. It should
accumulate all the results of the loop.
Fixes: 3b9a19e08960 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some symbols in randconfig")

This reverts upstream commit 18d7b2f4ee45fec422b7d82bab0b3c762ee907e4. A
revert in upstream dtc is pending.
This commit didn't work for properties such as 'interrupt-map' that have
phandle in the middle of an entry. It would also not work for a 0 or -1
phandle value that acts as a NULL.
