      modpost: fix segfault in sym_is() with prefixed arches · 3a5dd791
      由 Mike Frysinger 提交于 
      The sym_is() compares a symbol in an attempt to automatically skip symbol
prefixes.  It does this first by searching the real symbol with the normal
unprefixed symbol.  But then it uses the length of the original symbol to
check the end of the substring instead of the length of the symbol it is
looking for.  On non-prefixed arches, this is effectively the same thing,
so there is no problem.  On prefixed-arches, since this is exceeds by just
one byte, a crash is rare and it is usually a NUL byte anyways.  But every
once in a blue moon, you get the right page alignment and it segfaults.

For example, on the Blackfin arch, sym_is() will be called with the real
symbol "___mod_usb_device_table" as "symbol" when looking for the normal
symbol "__mod_usb_device_table" as "name".  The substring will thus return
one byte into "symbol" and store it into "match".  But then "match" will
be indexed with the length of "symbol" instead of "name" and so we will
exceed the storage.  i.e. the code ends up doing:
	char foo[] = "abc"; return foo[strlen(foo)+1] == '\0';

      USB: handle bcd incrementation in usb modalias generation · 55f49f26
      由 Nathaniel McCallum 提交于 
      This patch fixes a bug when incrementing/decrementing on a BCD formatted
integer (i.e. 0x09++ should be 0x10 not 0x0A).  It just adds a function
for incrementing/decrementing BCD integers by converting to decimal,
doing the increment/decrement and then converting back to BCD.

      USB: add hex/bcd detection to usb modalias generation · afe2dab4
      由 Nathaniel McCallum 提交于 
      The current code to generate usb modaliases from usb_device_id assumes
that the device's bcdDevice descriptor will actually be in BCD format.
While this should be a sane assumption, some devices don't follow spec
and just use plain old hex.  This causes drivers for these devices to
generate invalid modalias lines which will never actually match for the
hardware.

The following patch adds hex support for bcdDevice in file2alias.c by
detecting when a driver uses a hex formatted bcdDevice_(lo|hi) and
adjusts the output to hex format accordingly.

Drivers for devices which have bcdDevice conforming to BCD will have no
change in modalias output.  Drivers for devices which don't conform
(i.e. ibmcam) should now generate valid modaliases.

EXAMPLE OUTPUT (ibmcam; space added to highlight change)
    Old: usb:v0545p800D d030[10-9] dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*

      kbuild, modpost: Check the section flags, to catch missing "ax"/"aw" · b614a697
      由 Anders Kaseorg 提交于 
      When you put
  .section ".foo"
in an assembly file instead of
  .section "foo", "ax"
, one of the possible symptoms is that modpost will see an
ld-generated section name ".foo.1" in section_rel() or section_rela().
But this heuristic has two problems: it will miss a bad section that
has no relocations, and it will incorrectly flag many gcc-generated
sections as bad when compiling with -ffunction-sections
-fdata-sections.

On mips it fixes a lot of bogus warnings with gcc 4.4.0 lije this one:
WARNING: crypto/cryptd.o (.text.T.349): unexpected section name.

So instead of checking whether the section name matches a particular
pattern, we directly check for a missing SHF_ALLOC in the section
flags.

      kbuild: fix Module.markers permission error under cygwin · 99e3a1eb
      由 Cedric Hombourger 提交于 
      While building the kernel, we end-up calling modpost with -K and -M
options for the same file (Modules.markers).  This is resulting in
modpost's main function calling read_markers() and then write_markers() on
the same file.

We then have read_markers() mmap'ing the file, and writer_markers()
opening that same file for writing.

The issue is that read_markers() exits without munmap'ing the file and is
as a matter holding a reference on Modules.markers.  When write_markers()
is opening that very same file for writing, we still have a reference on
it and cygwin (Windows?) is then making fopen() fail with EPERM.

Calling release_file() before exiting read_markers() clears that reference
(and memory leak) and fopen() then succeeds.

Tested on both cygwin (1.3.22) and Linux.  Also ran modpost within
valgrind on Linux to make sure that the munmap'ed file was not accessed
after read_markers()

      module: include other structures in module version check · 8c8ef42a
      由 Rusty Russell 提交于 
      With CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, we version 'struct module' using a dummy
export, but other things matter too:

1) 'struct modversion_info' determines the layout of the __versions section,
2) 'struct kernel_param' determines the layout of the __params section,
3) 'struct kernel_symbol' determines __ksymtab*.
4) 'struct marker' determines __markers.
5) 'struct tracepoint' determines __tracepoints.

So we rename 'struct_module' to 'module_layout' and include these in
the signature.  Now it's general we can add others later on without
confusion.

      platform: introduce module id table for platform devices · 57fee4a5
      由 Eric Miao 提交于 
      Now platform_device is being widely used on SoC processors where the
peripherals are attached to the system bus, which is simple enough.

However, silicon IPs for these SoCs are usually shared heavily across
a family of processors, even products from different companies.  This
makes the original simple driver name based matching insufficient, or
simply not straight-forward.

Introduce a module id table for platform devices, and makes it clear
that a platform driver is able to support some shared IP and handle
slight differences across different platforms (by 'driver_data').
Module alias is handled automatically when a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()
is defined.

To not disturb the current platform drivers too much, the matched id
entry is recorded and can be retrieved by platform_get_device_id().

      modpost: NOBITS sections may point beyond the end of the file · 56fc82c5

      Impact: fix link failure on certain toolchains with specific configs

Recent percpu change made x86_64 split .data.init section into three
separate segments - data.init, percpu and data.init2.  data.init2 gets
.data.nosave and .bss.* and is followed by .notes segment.  Depending
on configuration both segments might contain no data, in which case
the tool chain makes the section header to contain offset beyond the
end of the file.

      Automatic MODULE_ALIAS() for DMI match tables. · d945b697
      由 David Woodhouse 提交于 
      This makes modpost handle MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, xxxx).

I had to change the string pointers in the match table to char arrays,
and picked a size of 79 bytes almost at random -- do we need to make it
bigger than that? I was a bit concerned about the 'bloat' this
introduces into the match tables, but they should all be __initdata so
it shouldn't matter too much.

(Actually, modpost does go through the relocations and look at most of
them; it wouldn't be impossible to make it handle string pointers -- but
doesn't seem to be worth the effort, since they're __initdata).

I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry"
(commit d35cb360)

Especially :

  -   add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
  +   if (!mod->skip)
  +     add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
    }
    return;
   fail:

Here is a fix that should take care if this problem.

Without this patch a powerpc build would error out and fail
to build modules with the added register save/restore module.

There were two obvious solutions:
1) To link the .o file before the modpost stage
2) To ignore the symbols in modpost

Option 1) was ruled out because we do not have any separate
linking stage for single file modules.

This patch implements option 2 - and do so only for powerpc.

      modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard · ac551828
      由 Jean Delvare 提交于 
      Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module
aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard
is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be
loaded.

As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary
device names. For example:

$ /sbin/modinfo lm90
filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.25-git18/kernel/drivers/hwmon/lm90.ko
author:         Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
description:    LM90/ADM1032 driver
license:        GPL
vermagic:       2.6.25-git18 mod_unload
depends:        hwmon
alias:          i2c:lm90*
alias:          i2c:adm1032*
alias:          i2c:lm99*
alias:          i2c:lm86*
alias:          i2c:max6657*
alias:          i2c:adt7461*
alias:          i2c:max6680*
$

This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of
another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different
drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90
driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case
has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The
cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases.

Here's a patch doing this.

Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular
the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(),
instead let each device type handler add it if needed.

I have tested types acpi, dmi, eisa, i2c, ide, ieee1394, input, pci,
pcmcia, platform, pnp, scsi, serio, ssb and usb. Other types (ccw, of,
vio, parisc, sdio and virtio) are untested.
