Summary of the changes worth highlighting from most interesting to boring below:
* Christoph Hellwig's symbol_get() fix to Nvidia's efforts to circumvent the
protection he put in place in year 2020 to prevent proprietary modules from
using GPL only symbols, and also ensuring proprietary modules which export
symbols grandfather their taint. That was done through year 2020 commit
262e6ae708 ("modules: inherit TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE"). Christoph's new
fix is done by clarifing __symbol_get() was only ever intended to prevent
module reference loops by Linux kernel modules and so making it only find
symbols exported via EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(). The circumvention tactic used
by Nvidia was to use symbol_get() to purposely swift through proprietary
module symbols and completley bypass our traditional EXPORT_SYMBOL*()
annotations and community agreed upon restrictions.
A small set of preamble patches fix up a few symbols which just needed
adjusting for this on two modules, the rtc ds1685 and the networking enetc
module. Two other modules just needed some build fixing and removal of use
of __symbol_get() as they can't ever be modular, as was done by Arnd on
the ARM pxa module and Christoph did on the mmc au1xmmc driver.
This is a good reminder to us that symbol_get() is just a hack to address
things which should be fixed through Kconfig at build time as was done in
the later patches, and so ultimately it should just go.
* Extremely late minor fix for old module layout 055f23b74b ("module: check
for exit sections in layout_sections() instead of module_init_section()") by
James Morse for arm64. Note that this layout thing is old, it is *not*
Song Liu's commit ac3b432839 ("module: replace module_layout with
module_memory"). The issue however is very odd to run into and so there was
no hurry to get this in fast.
* Although the fix did not go through the modules tree I'd like to highlight
the fix by Peter Zijlstra in commit 5409730962 ("x86/static_call: Fix
__static_call_fixup()") now merged in your tree which came out of what
was originally suspected to be a fallout of the the newer module layout
changes by Song Liu commit ac3b432839 ("module: replace module_layout
with module_memory") instead of module_init_section()"). Thanks to the report
by Christian Bricart and the debugging by Song Liu & Peter that turned to
be noted as a kernel regression in place since v5.19 through commit
ee88d363d1 ("x86,static_call: Use alternative RET encoding").
I highlight this to reflect and clarify that we haven't seen more fallout
from ac3b432839 ("module: replace module_layout with module_memory").
* RISC-V toolchain got mapping symbol support which prefix symbols with "$"
to help with alignment considerations for disassembly. This is used to
differentiate between incompatible instruction encodings when disassembling.
RISC-V just matches what ARM/AARCH64 did for alignment considerations and
Palmer Dabbelt extended is_mapping_symbol() to accept these symbols for
RISC-V. We already had support for this for all architectures but it also
checked for the second character, the RISC-V check Dabbelt added was just
for the "$". After a bit of testing and fallout on linux-next and based on
feedback from Masahiro Yamada it was decided to simplify the check and treat
the first char "$" as unique for all architectures, and so we no make
is_mapping_symbol() for all archs if the symbol starts with "$".
The most relevant commit for this for RISC-V on binutils was:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2021-July/117350.html
* A late fix by Andrea Righi (today) to make module zstd decompression use
vmalloc() instead of kmalloc() to account for large compressed modules. I
suspect we'll see similar things for other decompression algorithms soon.
* samples/hw_breakpoint minor fixes by Rong Tao, Arnd Bergmann and Chen Jiahao

Kernel test robot reported a kallsyms_test failure when clang lto is
enabled (thin or full) and CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST is also enabled.
I can reproduce in my local environment with the following error message
with thin lto:
[ 1.877897] kallsyms_selftest: Test for 1750th symbol failed: (tsc_cs_mark_unstable) addr=ffffffff81038090
[ 1.877901] kallsyms_selftest: abort
It appears that commit 8cc32a9bbf ("kallsyms: strip LTO-only suffixes
from promoted global functions") caused the failure. Commit 8cc32a9bbf
changed cleanup_symbol_name() based on ".llvm." instead of '.' where
".llvm." is appended to a before-lto-optimization local symbol name.
We need to propagate such knowledge in kallsyms_selftest.c as well.
Further more, compare_symbol_name() in kallsyms.c needs change as well.
In scripts/kallsyms.c, kallsyms_names and kallsyms_seqs_of_names are used
to record symbol names themselves and index to symbol names respectively.
For example:
kallsyms_names:
...
__amd_smn_rw._entry <== seq 1000
__amd_smn_rw._entry.5 <== seq 1001
__amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash> <== seq 1002
...
kallsyms_seqs_of_names are sorted based on cleanup_symbol_name() through, so
the order in kallsyms_seqs_of_names actually has
index 1000: seq 1002 <== __amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash> (actual symbol comparison using '__amd_smn_rw')
index 1001: seq 1000 <== __amd_smn_rw._entry
index 1002: seq 1001 <== __amd_smn_rw._entry.5
Let us say at a particular point, at index 1000, symbol '__amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash>'
is comparing to '__amd_smn_rw._entry' where '__amd_smn_rw._entry' is the one to
search e.g., with function kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol(). The current implementation
will find out '__amd_smn_rw._entry' is less than '__amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash>' and
then continue to search e.g., index 999 and never found a match although the actual
index 1001 is a match.
To fix this issue, let us do cleanup_symbol_name() first and then do comparison.
In the above case, comparing '__amd_smn_rw' vs '__amd_smn_rw._entry' and
'__amd_smn_rw._entry' being greater than '__amd_smn_rw', the next comparison will
be > index 1000 and eventually index 1001 will be hit an a match is found.
For any symbols not having '.llvm.' substr, there is no functionality change
for compare_symbol_name().

While debugging a recent kallsyms_selftest failure[1], I needed more
details on what specifically was failing. This adds those details for
each failure state that is checked.

kallsyms_on_each* may schedule so must not be called with interrupts
disabled. The iteration function could disable interrupts, but this
also changes lookup_symbol() to match the change to the other timing

Added test cases for basic functions and performance of functions
kallsyms_lookup_name(), kallsyms_on_each_symbol() and
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol(). It also calculates the compression rate
of the kallsyms compression algorithm for the current symbol set.
The basic functions test begins by testing a set of symbols whose address
values are known. Then, traverse all symbol addresses and find the
corresponding symbol name based on the address. It's impossible to
determine whether these addresses are correct, but we can use the above
three functions along with the addresses to test each other. Due to the
traversal operation of kallsyms_on_each_symbol() is too slow, only 60
symbols can be tested in one second, so let it test on average once
every 128 symbols. The other two functions validate all symbols.
If the basic functions test is passed, print only performance test
results. If the test fails, print error information, but do not perform
subsequent performance tests.
Start self-test automatically after system startup if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST=y.
