      kbuild: modversions: Fix relative CRC byte order interpretation · aa7f29f8
      由 Fredrik Noring 提交于 
      commit 54a7151b1496cddbb7a83546b7998103e98edc88 upstream.

Fix commit 56067812 ("kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for
emitting relative CRCs") where CRCs are interpreted in host byte order
rather than proper kernel byte order. The bug is conditional on
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS.

For example, when loading a BE module into a BE kernel compiled with a LE
system, the error "disagrees about version of symbol module_layout" is
produced. A message such as "Found checksum D7FA6856 vs module 5668FAD7"
will be given with debug enabled, which indicates an obvious endian
problem within __kcrctab within the kernel image.

The general solution is to use the macro TO_NATIVE, as is done in
similar cases throughout modpost.c. With this correction it has been
verified that a BE kernel compiled with a LE system accepts BE modules.

This change has also been verified with a LE kernel compiled with a LE
system, in which case TO_NATIVE returns its value unmodified since the
byte orders match. This is by far the common case.

      kbuild: Add build salt to the kernel and modules · 9afb719e
      由 Laura Abbott 提交于 
      In Fedora, the debug information is packaged separately (foo-debuginfo) and
can be installed separately. There's been a long standing issue where only
one version of a debuginfo info package can be installed at a time. There's
been an effort for Fedora for parallel debuginfo to rectify this problem.

Part of the requirement to allow parallel debuginfo to work is that build ids
are unique between builds. The existing upstream rpm implementation ensures
this by re-calculating the build-id using the version and release as a
seed. This doesn't work 100% for the kernel because of the vDSO which is
its own binary and doesn't get updated when embedded.

Fix this by adding some data in an ELF note for both the kernel and modules.
The data is controlled via a Kconfig option so distributions can set it
to an appropriate value to ensure uniqueness between builds.

      module/retpoline: Warn about missing retpoline in module · caf7501a
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
right compiler or the right option.

To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
or prebuilt object files are not checked.

If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.

Sam's commit also changed the fatal error to a warning, which I am
leaving as is.

This gives advance notice of when a module has no license and will taint
the kernel if the module is loaded.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

      thunderbolt: Add support for XDomain discovery protocol · d1ff7024
      由 Mika Westerberg 提交于 
      When two hosts are connected over a Thunderbolt cable, there is a
protocol they can use to communicate capabilities supported by the host.
The discovery protocol uses automatically configured control channel
(ring 0) and is build on top of request/response transactions using
special XDomain primitives provided by the Thunderbolt base protocol.

The capabilities consists of a root directory block of basic properties
used for identification of the host, and then there can be zero or more
directories each describing a Thunderbolt service and its capabilities.

Once both sides have discovered what is supported the two hosts can
setup high-speed DMA paths and transfer data to the other side using
whatever protocol was agreed based on the properties. The software
protocol used to communicate which DMA paths to enable is service
specific.

This patch adds support for the XDomain discovery protocol to the
Thunderbolt bus. We model each remote host connection as a Linux XDomain
device. For each Thunderbolt service found supported on the XDomain
device, we create Linux Thunderbolt service device which Thunderbolt
service drivers can then bind to based on the protocol identification
information retrieved from the property directory describing the
service.

This code is based on the work done by Amir Levy and Michael Jamet.

      kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for emitting relative CRCs · 56067812
      由 Ard Biesheuvel 提交于 
      This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit
vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel
where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs
being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at
runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)

For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following:

 - introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS

 - adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols
   as references into the .rodata section

 - making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols
   by the section index (SHN_ABS)

 - making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix

When the modules referring to exported symbols are built, there is an

any such module will be built, and in any case it is useful to get a

      modpost: fix module autoloading for OF devices with generic compatible property · acbef7b7
      由 Philipp Zabel 提交于 
      Since the wildcard at the end of OF module aliases is gone, autoloading
of modules that don't match a device's last (most generic) compatible
value fails.

For example the CODA960 VPU on i.MX6Q has the SoC specific compatible
"fsl,imx6q-vpu" and the generic compatible "cnm,coda960".  Since the
driver currently only works with knowledge about the SoC specific
integration, it doesn't list "cnm,cod960" in the module device table.

This results in the device compatible
"of:NvpuT<NULL>Cfsl,imx6q-vpuCcnm,coda960" not matching the module alias
"of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu" anymore, whereas before commit 2f632369
("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") it
matched the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu*".

This patch adds two module aliases for each compatible, one without the
wildcard and one with "C*" appended.

  $ modinfo coda | grep imx6q
  alias:          of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpuC*
  alias:          of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu

      objtool: Mark non-standard object files and directories · c0dd6716
      由 Josh Poimboeuf 提交于 
      Code which runs outside the kernel's normal mode of operation often does
unusual things which can cause a static analysis tool like objtool to
emit false positive warnings:

 - boot image
 - vdso image
 - relocation
 - realmode
 - efi
 - head
 - purgatory
 - modpost

Set OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD for their related files and directories,
which will tell objtool to skip checking them.  It's ok to skip them
because they don't affect runtime stack traces.

Also skip the following code which does the right thing with respect to
frame pointers, but is too "special" to be validated by a tool:

 - entry
 - mcount

Also skip the test_nx module because it modifies its exception handling
table at runtime, which objtool can't understand.  Fortunately it's
just a test module so it doesn't matter much.

Currently objtool is the only user of OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD, but it
might eventually be useful for other tools.

      powerpc: Simplify module TOC handling · c153693d
      由 Alan Modra 提交于 
      PowerPC64 uses the symbol .TOC. much as other targets use
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. It identifies the value of the GOT pointer (or in
powerpc parlance, the TOC pointer). Global offset tables are generally
local to an executable or shared library, or in the kernel, module. Thus
it does not make sense for a module to resolve a relocation against
.TOC. to the kernel's .TOC. value. A module has its own .TOC., and
indeed the powerpc64 module relocation processing ignores the kernel
value of .TOC. and instead calculates a module-local value.

This patch removes code involved in exporting the kernel .TOC., tweaks
modpost to ignore an undefined .TOC., and the module loader to twiddle
the section symbol so that .TOC. isn't seen as undefined.

Note that if the kernel was compiled with -msingle-pic-base then ELFv2
would not have function global entry code setting up r2. In that case
the module call stubs would need to be modified to set up r2 using the
kernel .TOC. value, requiring some of this code to be reinstated.

mpe: Furthermore a change in binutils master (not yet released) causes
the current way we handle the TOC to no longer work when building with
MODVERSIONS=y and RELOCATABLE=n. The symptom is that modules can not be
loaded due to there being no version found for TOC.
