2017-07-12scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: use explicit encoding=utf8 errors=replaceLeonard Crestez1-3/+10
Use errors=replace because it is never desirable for lx-dmesg to fail on string decoding errors, not even if the log buffer is corrupt and we show incorrect info. The kernel will sometimes print utf8, for example the copyright symbol from jffs2. In order to make this work specify 'utf8' everywhere because python2 otherwise defaults to 'ascii'. In theory the second errors='replace' is not be required because everything that can be decoded as utf8 should also be encodable back to utf8. But it's better to be extra safe here. It's worth noting that this is definitely not true for encoding='ascii', unknown characters are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER and they fail to encode back to ascii.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: cast log_buf to void* for addr fetchLeonard Crestez1-1/+1
In some cases it is possible for the str() conversion here to throw encoding errors because log_buf might not point to valid ascii. For example: (gdb) python print str(gdb.parse_and_eval("log_buf")) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0303' in position 24: ordinal not in range(128) Avoid this by explicitly casting to (void *) inside the gdb expression.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: add lx-fdtdump commandPeter Griffin2-0/+80
lx-fdtdump dumps the flattened device tree passed to the kernel from the bootloader to the filename specified as the command argument. If no argument is provided it defaults to fdtdump.dtb. This then allows further post processing on the machine running GDB. The fdt header is also also printed in the GDB console. For example: (gdb) lx-fdtdump fdt_magic: 0xD00DFEED fdt_totalsize: 0xC108 off_dt_struct: 0x38 off_dt_strings: 0x3804 off_mem_rsvmap: 0x28 version: 17 last_comp_version: 16 Dumped fdt to fdtdump.dtb >fdtdump fdtdump.dtb | less This command is useful as the bootloader can often re-write parts of the device tree, and this can sometimes cause the kernel to not boot.

2017-07-10checkpatch: change format of --color argument to --color[=WHEN]John Brooks1-6/+29
The boolean --color argument did not offer the ability to force colourized output even if stdout is not a terminal. Change the format of the argument to the familiar --color[=WHEN] construct as seen in common Linux utilities such as git, ls and dmesg, which allows the user to specify whether to colourize output "always", "never", or "auto" when the output is a terminal. The default is "auto". The old command-line uses of --color and --no-color are unchanged.

2017-06-30kbuild: handle libs-y archives separately from built-in.o archivesNicholas Piggin1-9/+36
The thin archives build currently puts all lib.a and built-in.o files together and links them with --whole-archive. This works because thin archives can recursively refer to thin archives. However some architectures include libgcc.a, which may not be a thin archive, or it may not be constructed with the "P" option, in which case its contents do not get linked correctly. So don't pull .a libs into the root built-in.o archive. These libs should already have symbol tables and indexes built, so they can be direct linker inputs. Move them out of the --whole-archive option, which restore the conditional linking behaviour of lib.a to thin archives builds.

2017-06-30kbuild: thin archives use P option to arNicholas Piggin2-5/+5
The P option makes ar do full path name matching and can prevent ar from discarding files with duplicate names in some cases of creating thin archives from thin archives. The sh architecture in particular loses some object files from its kernel/cpu/sh*/ directories without this option. This could be a bug in binutils ar, but the P option should not cause any negative effects so it is safe to use to work around this with.

2017-06-27vsprintf: Add %p extension "%pOF" for device treePantelis Antoniou1-1/+1
90% of the usage of device node's full_name is printing it out in a kernel message. However, storing the full path for every node is wasteful and redundant. With a custom format specifier, we can generate the full path at run-time and eventually remove the full path from every node. For instance typical use is: pr_info("Frobbing node %s\n", node->full_name); Which can be written now as: pr_info("Frobbing node %pOF\n", node); '%pO' is the base specifier to represent kobjects with '%pOF' representing struct device_node. Currently, struct device_node is the only supported type of kobject. More fine-grained control of formatting includes printing the name, flags, path-spec name and others, explained in the documentation entry. Originally written by Pantelis, but pretty much rewrote the core function using existing string/number functions. The 2 passes were unnecessary and have been removed. Also, updated the checkpatch.pl check. The unittest code was written by Grant Likely.

2017-06-25kbuild: Add __cc-option macroMatthias Kaehlcke2-8/+12
cc-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS when it determines whether an option is supported or not. This is fine for options used to build the kernel itself, however some components like the x86 boot code use a different set of flags. Add the new macro __cc-option which is a more generic version of cc-option with additional parameters.

2017-06-22gcc-plugins: Add the randstruct pluginKees Cook6-0/+1046
This randstruct plugin is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code. The randstruct GCC plugin randomizes the layout of selected structures at compile time, as a probabilistic defense against attacks that need to know the layout of structures within the kernel. This is most useful for "in-house" kernel builds where neither the randomization seed nor other build artifacts are made available to an attacker. While less useful for distribution kernels (where the randomization seed must be exposed for third party kernel module builds), it still has some value there since now all kernel builds would need to be tracked by an attacker. In more performance sensitive scenarios, GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT_PERFORMANCE can be selected to make a best effort to restrict randomization to cacheline-sized groups of elements, and will not randomize bitfields. This comes at the cost of reduced randomization. Two annotations are defined,__randomize_layout and __no_randomize_layout, which respectively tell the plugin to either randomize or not to randomize instances of the struct in question. Follow-on patches enable the auto-detection logic for selecting structures for randomization that contain only function pointers. It is disabled here to assist with bisection. Since any randomized structs must be initialized using designated initializers, __randomize_layout includes the __designated_init annotation even when the plugin is disabled so that all builds will require the needed initialization. (With the plugin enabled, annotations for automatically chosen structures are marked as well.) The main differences between this implemenation and grsecurity are: - disable automatic struct selection (to be enabled in follow-up patch) - add designated_init attribute at runtime and for manual marking - clarify debugging output to differentiate bad cast warnings - add whitelisting infrastructure - support gcc 7's DECL_ALIGN and DECL_MODE changes (Laura Abbott) - raise minimum required GCC version to 4.7 Earlier versions of this patch series were ported by Michael Leibowitz.

2017-06-22scripts/dtc: dtx_diff - Show real file names in diff headerGeert Uytterhoeven1-1/+1
As the comparison uses process substitution to pass files after conversion to DTS format, the diff header doesn't show the real filenames, but the names of the file descriptors used: --- /dev/fd/63 2017-06-22 11:21:47.531637188 +0200 +++ /dev/fd/62 2017-06-22 11:21:47.531637188 +0200 This is especially annoying when comparing a bunch of DT files in a loop, as the output doesn't show a clue about which files it refers to. Fix this by explicitly passing the original file names to the diff command using the --label option, giving e.g.: --- arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7791-koelsch.dtb +++ arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7791-porter.dtb Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be> Reviewed-by: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com> Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
2017-06-22kbuild: replace genhdr-y with generated-yMasahiro Yamada1-1/+1
Originally, generated-y and genhdr-y had different meaning, like follows: - generated-y: generated headers (other than asm-generic wrappers) - header-y : headers to be exported - genhdr-y : generated headers to be exported (generated-y + header-y) Since commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all headers under uapi directories"), headers under UAPI directories are all exported. So, there is no more difference between generated-y and genhdr-y. We see two users of genhdr-y, arch/{arm,x86}/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild. They generate some headers in arch/{arm,x86}/include/generated/uapi/asm directories, which are obviously exported. Replace them with generated-y, and abolish genhdr-y.

2017-06-10kbuild: speed up checksyscalls.shArnd Bergmann1-7/+4
checksyscalls.sh is run at every "make" run while building the kernel, even if no files have changed. I looked at where we spend time in a trivial empty rebuild and found checksyscalls.sh to be a source of noticeable overhead, as it spawns a lot of child processes just to call 'cat' copying from stdin to stdout, once for each of the over 400 x86 syscalls. Using a shell-builtin (echo) instead of the external command gives us a 13x speedup: Before After real 0m1.018s real 0m0.077s user 0m0.068s user 0m0.048s sys 0m0.156s sys 0m0.024s The time it took to rebuild a single file on my machine dropped from 5.5 seconds to 4.5 seconds.

2017-06-08checkpatch: Remove checks for expedited grace periodsPaul E. McKenney1-17/+0
There was a time when the expedited grace-period primitives (synchronize_rcu_expedited(), synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited(), and synchronize_sched_expedited()) used rather antisocial kernel facilities like try_stop_cpus(). However, they have since been housebroken to use only single-CPU IPIs, and typically cause less disturbance than a scheduling-clock interrupt. Furthermore, this disturbance can be eliminated entirely using NO_HZ_FULL on the one hand or the rcupdate.rcu_normal boot parameter on the other. This commit therefore removes checkpatch's complaints about use of the expedited RCU primitives. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
