scripts/bloat-o-meter: fix python3 syntax error

2016-02-25T19:58:55+00:00

commit 72214a24a7677d4c7501eecc9517ed681b5f2db2 upstream.

In Python3+ print is a function so the old syntax is not correct
anymore:

  $ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter vmlinux.o vmlinux.o.old
    File "./scripts/bloat-o-meter", line 61
      print "add/remove: %s/%s grow/shrink: %s/%s up/down: %s/%s (%s)" % \
                                                                     ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Fix by calling print as a function.

Tested on python 2.7.11, 3.5.1

recordmcount: Fix endianness handling bug for nop_mcount

2016-02-17T20:34:34+00:00

commit c84da8b9ad3761eef43811181c7e896e9834b26b upstream.

In nop_mcount, shdr->sh_offset and welp->r_offset should handle
endianness properly, otherwise it will trigger Segmentation fault
if the recordmcount main and file.o have different endianness.

scripts/recordmcount.pl: support data in text section on powerpc

2016-01-29T05:57:14+00:00

commit 2e50c4bef77511b42cc226865d6bc568fa7f8769 upstream.

If a text section starts out with a data blob before the first
function start label, disassembly parsing doing in recordmcount.pl
gets confused on powerpc, leading to creation of corrupted module
objects.

This was not a problem so far since the compiler would never create
such text sections.  However, this has changed with a recent change
in GCC 6 to support distances of > 2GB between a function and its
assoicated TOC in the ELFv2 ABI, exposing this problem.

There is already code in recordmcount.pl to handle such data blobs
on the sparc64 platform.  This patch uses the same method to handle
those on powerpc as well.

localmodconfig: Use Kbuild files too

2015-09-13T16:10:49+00:00

commit c0ddc8c745b7f89c50385fd7aa03c78dc543fa7a upstream.

In kbuild it is allowed to define objects in files named "Makefile"
and "Kbuild".
Currently localmodconfig reads objects only from "Makefile"s and misses
modules like nouveau.

kconfig: Fix warning "‘jump’ may be used uninitialized"

2015-02-11T06:54:48+00:00

commit 2d560306096739e2251329ab5c16059311a151b0 upstream.

Warning:
In file included from scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c:2537:0:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c: In function ‘get_symbol_str’:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c:590:18: warning: ‘jump’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     jump->offset = strlen(r->s);

Simplifies the test logic because (head && local) means (jump != 0)
and makes GCC happy when checking if the jump pointer was initialized.

scripts/recordmcount.pl: There is no -m32 gcc option on Super-H anymore

scripts/kernel-doc: don't eat struct members with __aligned

2015-01-16T14:59:33+00:00

commit 7b990789a4c3420fa57596b368733158e432d444 upstream.

The change from \d+ to .+ inside __aligned() means that the following
structure:

  struct test {
        u8 a __aligned(2);
        u8 b __aligned(2);
  };

essentially gets modified to

  struct test {
        u8 a;
  };

for purposes of kernel-doc, thus dropping a struct member, which in
turns causes warnings and invalid kernel-doc generation.

Fix this by replacing the catch-all (".") with anything that's not a
semicolon ("[^;]").

recordmcount/MIPS: Fix possible incorrect mcount_loc table entries in modules

2014-07-07T01:57:26+00:00

commit 91ad11d7cc6f4472ebf177a6252fbf0fd100d798 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.

builddeb: use $OBJCOPY variable instead of objcopy

2014-07-01T03:12:02+00:00

commit 6b4a144a92ab81a1f45fb9b12aebaaaee0d08120 upstream.

In cross-build environment, we expect to use the cross-compiler objcopy
instead of the host objcopy.

It fixes following build failures:
