The get_quoted_string function does not expect invalid arguments.
The $stat test can return non-statements for complicated macros like
TRACE_EVENT.
Allow the $stat block and test for vsprintf misuses to exceed the actual
block length and possibly test invalid lines by validating the arguments
of get_quoted_string.
Return "" if either get_quoted_string argument is undefined.

Usage of the new %px specifier potentially leaks sensitive information.
Printing kernel addresses exposes the kernel layout in memory, this is
potentially exploitable. We have tools in the kernel to help us do the
right thing. We can have checkpatch warn developers of potential

I tried building using a freshly built Make (4.2.1-69-g8a731d1), but
already the objtool build broke with
orc_dump.c: In function ‘orc_dump’:
orc_dump.c:106:2: error: ‘elf_getshnum’ is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) {
Turns out that with that new Make, the backslash was not removed, so cpp
didn't see a #include directive, grep found nothing, and
-DLIBELF_USE_DEPRECATED was wrongly put in CFLAGS.
Now, that new Make behaviour is documented in their NEWS file:
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
thus a call such as:
foo := $(shell echo '#')
is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
foo := $(shell echo '\#')
Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles
portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
C := \#
foo := $(shell echo '$C')
This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
This also fixes up the two make-cmd instances to replace # with $(pound)
rather than with \#. There might very well be other places that need
similar fixup in preparation for whatever future Make release contains
the above change, but at least this builds an x86_64 defconfig with the
new make.

Tidy the naming convention for compat syscall subs. Hints which describe

For the generic case, this means:

If only one of IA32_EMULATION and x32 is enabled, __se_compat_sys_waitid()

Here is the patch set for the 4.17-rc1 merge window. This set
represents improvements to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script. The
major improvement is that with this set applied the script actually runs
in a reasonable amount of time (less than a minute on a standard stock
Ubuntu user desktop). Also, we have a second maintainer now and a tree
hosted on kernel.org
We do a few code clean ups. We fix the command help output. Handling
of the vsyscall address range is fixed to check the whole range instead
of just the start/end addresses. We add support for 5 page table levels
(suggested on LKML). We use a system command to get the machine
architecture instead of using Perl. Calling this command for every
regex comparison is what previously choked the script, caching the
result of this call gave the major speed improvement. We add support
for scanning 32-bit kernels using the user/kernel memory split. Path
skipping code refactored and simplified (meaning easier script
configuration). We remove version numbering. We add a variable name to
improve readability of a regex and finally we check filenames for
leaking addresses.
Currently script scans /proc/PID for all PID. With this set applied we
only scan for PID==1. It was observed that on an idle system files under
/proc/PID are predominantly the same for all processes. Also it was
noted that the script does not scan _all_ the kernel since it only scans
active processes. Scanning only for PID==1 makes explicit the inherent
flaw in the script that the scan is only partial and also speeds things up.

GNU Make automatically deletes intermediate files that are updated
in a chain of pattern rules.
Example 1) %.dtb.o <- %.dtb.S <- %.dtb <- %.dts
Example 2) %.o <- %.c <- %.c_shipped
A couple of makefiles mark such targets as .PRECIOUS to prevent Make
from deleting them, but the correct way is to use .SECONDARY.
.SECONDARY
Prerequisites of this special target are treated as intermediate
files but are never automatically deleted.
.PRECIOUS
When make is interrupted during execution, it may delete the target
file it is updating if the file was modified since make started.
If you mark the file as precious, make will never delete the file
if interrupted.
Both can avoid deletion of intermediate files, but the difference is
the behavior when Make is interrupted; .SECONDARY deletes the target,
but .PRECIOUS does not.
The use of .PRECIOUS is relatively rare since we do not want to keep
partially constructed (possibly corrupted) targets.
Another difference is that .PRECIOUS works with pattern rules whereas
.SECONDARY does not.
.PRECIOUS: $(obj)/%.lex.c
works, but
.SECONDARY: $(obj)/%.lex.c
has no effect. However, for the reason above, I do not want to use
.PRECIOUS which could cause obscure build breakage.
The targets specified as .SECONDARY must be explicit. $(targets)
contains all targets that need to include .*.cmd files. So, the
intermediates you want to keep are mostly in there. Therefore, mark
$(targets) as .SECONDARY. It means primary targets are also marked
as .SECONDARY, but I do not see any drawback for this.
I replaced some .SECONDARY / .PRECIOUS markers with 'targets'. This
will make Kbuild search for non-existing .*.cmd files, but this is
not a noticeable performance issue.

Our convention is to distinguish file types by suffixes with a period
as a separator.
*-asn1.[ch] is a different pattern from other generated sources such
as *.lex.c, *.tab.[ch], *.dtb.S, etc. More confusing, files with
'-asn1.[ch]' are generated files, but '_asn1.[ch]' are checked-in
files:

Another common pattern that consists of chained commands is to compile
a DTB as binary data into the kernel image or a module. It is used in
several places in the source tree. Support it in the core Makefile.

Files generated by if_changed* must be added to 'targets' to include
*.cmd files. Otherwise, they would be regenerated every time.
The build system automatically adds objects to 'targets' where
appropriate, such as obj-y, extra-y, etc. but does nothing for
intermediate files. So, each Makefile needs to add them by itself.
There are some common cases where objects are generated by chained
rules. Lexers and parsers are compiled like follows:
%.lex.o <- %.lex.c <- %.l
%.tab.o <- %.tab.c <- %.y
They are common patterns, so it is reasonable to take care of them
in the core Makefile instead of requiring each Makefile to do so.
At this moment, you cannot delete 'target += zconf.lex.c' in the
Kconfig Makefile because zconf.lex.c is included from zconf.tab.c
instead of being compiled separately. It should be deleted after
Kconfig is more refactored.

Now that the kernel build supports flex and bison, remove the _shipped
files and generate them during the build instead.
There are no more shipped lexer and parser, so I ripped off the rules
in scripts/Malefile.lib that were used for REGENERATE_PARSERS.
The genksyms parser has ambiguous grammar, which would emit warnings:
scripts/genksyms/parse.y: warning: 9 shift/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-sr]
scripts/genksyms/parse.y: warning: 5 reduce/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-rr]
They are normally suppressed, but displayed when W=1 is given.

Files suffixed by .lex.c, .tab.[ch] are generated lexers, parsers,
respectively. Clean them up globally from the top Makefile.
Some of the final host programs those lexer/parser are linked into
are necessary for building external modules, but the intermediates
are unneeded. They can be cleaned away by 'make clean' instead of

When the system is idle it is likely that most files under /proc/PID
will be identical for various processes. Scanning _all_ the PIDs under
/proc is unnecessary and implies that we are thoroughly scanning /proc.
This is _not_ the case because there may be ways userspace can trigger
creation of /proc files that leak addresses but were not present during
a scan. For these two reasons we should exclude all PID directories
under /proc except '1/'

We can simplify the code by just having a single array for absolute
paths to skip and a single array for file names to skip wherever they
appear in the scanned directory tree. There are also currently multiple
subroutines to handle the different arrays, we can reduce these to a
single subroutine also.
Simplify the path skipping code.

Currently script parses binary files. Since we are scanning for
readable kernel addresses there is no need to parse binary files. We
can use Perl to check if file is binary and skip parsing it if so.
Do not parse binary files.

Currently script only supports x86_64 and ppc64. It would be nice to be
able to scan 32-bit machines also. We can add support for 32-bit
architectures by modifying how we check for false positives, taking
advantage of the page offset used by the kernel, and using the correct
regular expression.
Support for 32-bit machines is enabled by the observation that the kernel
addresses on 32-bit machines are larger [in value] than the page offset.
We can use this to filter false positives when scanning the kernel for
leaking addresses.
Programmatic determination of the running architecture is not
immediately obvious (current 32-bit machines return various strings from
`uname -m`). We therefore provide a flag to enable scanning of 32-bit
kernels. Also we can check the kernel config file for the offset and if
not found default to 0xc0000000. A command line option to parse in the
page offset is also provided. We do automatically detect architecture
if running on ix86.
Add support for 32-bit kernels. Add a command line option for page
offset.

Currently there is duplicate code when checking the architecture type.
We can remove the duplication by implementing a wrapper function
is_arch().

Currently script uses Perl to get the machine architecture. This can be
erroneous since Perl uses the architecture of the machine that Perl was
compiled on not the architecture of the running machine. We should use
the systems `uname` command instead.
Use `uname -m` instead of Perl to get the machine architecture.

Currently script only supports 4 page table levels because of the way
the kernel address regular expression is crafted. We can do better than
this. Using previously added support for kernel configuration options we
can get the number of page table levels defined by
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS. Using this value a correct regular expression can
be crafted. This only supports 5 page tables on x86_64.
Add support for 5 page table levels on x86_64.

Features that rely on the ability to get kernel configuration options
are ready to be implemented in script. In preparation for this we can

review.

Currently script checks only first and last address in the vsyscall
memory range. We can do better than this. When checking for false
positives against $match, we can convert $match to a hexadecimal value
then check if it lies within the range of vsyscall addresses.
Check whole range of vsyscall addresses when checking for false
positive.

This tag contains the new features we'd like to incorporate into the
RISC-V port for 4.17. We might have a bit more stuff land later in the
merge window, but I wanted to get this out earlier just so everyone can
see where we currently stand.
A short summary of the changes is:
* We've added support for dynamic ftrace on RISC-V targets.
* There have been a handful of cleanups to our atomic and locking
routines. They now more closely match the released RISC-V memory
model draft.
* Our module loading support has been cleaned up and is now enabled by
default, despite some limitations still existing.
* A patch to define COMMANDLINE_FORCE instead of COMMANDLINE_OVERRIDE so
the generic device tree code picks up handling all our command line
stuff.
There's more information in the merge commits for each patch set.

Nothing particularly stands out here, probably because people were tied
up with spectre/meltdown stuff last time around. Still, the main pieces
are:
- Rework of our CPU features framework so that we can whitelist CPUs that
don't require kpti even in a heterogeneous system
- Support for the IDC/DIC architecture extensions, which allow us to elide
instruction and data cache maintenance when writing out instructions
- Removal of the large memory model which resulted in suboptimal codegen
by the compiler and increased the use of literal pools, which could
potentially be used as ROP gadgets since they are mapped as executable
- Rework of forced signal delivery so that the siginfo_t is well-formed
and handling of show_unhandled_signals is consolidated and made
consistent between different fault types
- More siginfo cleanup based on the initial patches from Eric Biederman
- Workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum #1024718

- Lots of work aligning Documentation/ABI with reality, done by Aishwarya
Pant.
- The trace documentation has been converted to RST by Changbin Du
- I thrashed up kernel-doc to deal with a parsing issue and to try to make
the code more readable. It's still a 20+-year-old Perl hack, though.
- Lots of other updates, typo fixes, and more.

This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r,
metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure
that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in
mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective
ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw
no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company
in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems
that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the
custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast,
CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained
kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made
sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300,
and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels,
but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their
support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place.
They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but
complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted
their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar.
