The fix actually makes the parsing of that option much less fragile and updates the documentation at the same time.

asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO
GCC has supported asm goto since 4.5, and Clang has since version 9.0.0. The minimum supported versions of these tools for the build according to Documentation/process/changes.rst are 5.1 and 11.0.0 respectively. Remove the feature detection script, Kconfig option, and clean up some fallback code that is no longer supported. The removed script was also testing for a GCC specific bug that was fixed in the 4.7 release. Also remove workarounds for bpftrace using clang older than 9.0.0, since other BPF backend fixes are required at this point.

Modules updates for 6.0
For the 6.0 merge window the modules code shifts to cleanup and minor fixes effort. This is becomes much easier to do and review now due to the code split to its own directory from effort on the last kernel release. I expect to see more of this with time and as we expand on test coverage in the future. The cleanups and fixes come from usual suspects such as Christophe Leroy and Aaron Tomlin but there are also some other contributors. One particular minor fix worth mentioning is from Helge Deller, where he spotted a *forever* incorrect natural alignment on both ELF section header tables: * .altinstructions * __bug_table sections A lot of back and forth went on in trying to determine the ill effects of this misalignment being present for years and it has been determined there should be no real ill effects unless you have a buggy exception handler. Helge actually hit one of these buggy exception handlers on parisc which is how he ended up spotting this issue. When implemented correctly these paths with incorrect misalignment would just mean a performance penalty, but given that we are dealing with alternatives on modules and with the __bug_table (where info regardign BUG()/WARN() file/line information associated with it is stored) this really shouldn't be a big deal. The only other change with mentioning is the kmap() with kmap_local_page() and my only concern with that was on what is done after preemption, but the virtual addresses are restored after preemption. This is only used on module decompression. This all has sit on linux-next for a while except the kmap stuff which has been there for 3 weeks. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJGBAABCgAwFiEENnNq2KuOejlQLZofziMdCjCSiKcFAmLxL4gSHG1jZ3JvZkBr ZXJuZWwub3JnAAoJEM4jHQowkoin8AYP/iv/Oh/Zzh4UvZzkkOSzhf1qDgGhjFb0 aFIODZzpEfZ5ix5GcLapB8/QIwQgxiIRa3WkTMc0uyv+mddlbKuILFnI9A1I+TQe N4gmKeYXwWRyxLa6y7/B3lVzuLxf4DpcxfS2c3A65MkYi09XPA9oXCy7JjzsmEiZ z2Lu8lTe6hg8VarBTogHBxiEU7ybfDCnHWj7/Oe6zz8tS/R0i0ndNBu9xmaCqSh7 QC8++eqCaS+zfW0uTmnGDo1/zWLBblCZ5HAHG8bLlPHezUbekNz6G1D4CVwFyNQ8 wy1Gjy8nFWc+rwUl1CTgJ+A7wodGrMCyt5SmcNUVBOWdlSmli5vFJp61ET6UdrV+ +8owATwwIm8hbkIAI4037j7pMgrO27d130GRxFwgG9GNoqew2AM7y/9HrlmW49PE IqJA4Pm3zg26IhLIRcH7jLg3oKGuFf0nkMTDoooI5a9DlcsCXPuGd0FBw2WbR71D Px6dlVoAW0NrP2tm8YzkTKIT+aN+UId4Vdi2oFs1t8Sye/U+LCjvwrXPk13pZKdR VxfM1oVxeRwiAUq0VuIrnj7windF5Mpy2hDLHeWjzQmLcEGAtCYEGyxKTBkNTtPt gm9XBzT6Rbzi+Sc++ZoHYHe1g4T66sjYOp4N90sRRMD3FR97ZyW8eD01gwf6p1Uy aCOrA+sRHK3F =hPvl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'modules-6.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain: "For the 6.0 merge window the modules code shifts to cleanup and minor fixes effort.

Several core optimizations:
* threadgroup_rwsem write locking is skipped when configuring controllers in empty subtrees. Combined with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP, this allows the common static usage pattern to not grab threadgroup_rwsem at all (glibc still doesn't seem ready for CLONE_INTO_CGROUP unfortunately). * threadgroup_rwsem used to be put into non-percpu mode by default due to latency concerns in specific use cases.

This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS and Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel boot parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering with real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms. poll.2022.07.21a: Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably making these APIs account for both normal and expedited grace periods. rcu-tasks.2022.06.21a: Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing the CPU overhead of RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than a factor of two on a system with 15,000 tasks. The reduction is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it seems reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks might see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead. torture.2022.06.21a: Torture-test updates. ctxt.2022.07.05a: Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into context tracking, thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to kernel mode from either idle or nohz_full userspace execution for kernels that track context independently of RCU.

kbuild: drop support for CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3

init: add "hostname" kernel parameter
The gethostname system call returns the hostname for the current machine. However, the kernel has no mechanism to initially set the current machine's name in such a way as to guarantee that the first userspace process to call gethostname will receive a meaningful result. It relies on some unspecified userspace process to first call sethostname before gethostname can produce a meaningful name. Traditionally the machine's hostname is set from userspace by the init system. The init system, in turn, often relies on a configuration file (say, /etc/hostname) to provide the value that it will supply in the call to sethostname. Consequently, the file system containing /etc/hostname usually must be available before the hostname will be set. There may, however, be earlier userspace processes that could call gethostname before the file system containing /etc/hostname is mounted. Such a process will get some other, likely meaningless, name from gethostname (such as "(none)", "localhost", or "darkstar"). A real-world example where this can happen, and lead to undesirable results, is with mdadm. When assembling arrays, mdadm distinguishes between "local" arrays and "foreign" arrays. A local array is one that properly belongs to the current machine, and a foreign array is one that is (possibly temporarily) attached to the current machine, but properly belongs to some other machine. To determine if an array is local or foreign, mdadm may compare the "homehost" recorded on the array with the current hostname. If mdadm is run before the root file system is mounted, perhaps because the root file system itself resides on an md-raid array, then /etc/hostname isn't yet available and the init system will not yet have called sethostname, causing mdadm to incorrectly conclude that all of the local arrays are foreign. Solving this problem *could* be delegated to the init system. It could be left up to the init system (including any init system that starts within an initramfs, if one is in use) to ensure that sethostname is called before any other userspace process could possibly call gethostname. However, it may not always be obvious which processes could call gethostname (for example, udev itself might not call gethostname, but it could via udev rules invoke processes that do). Additionally, the init system has to ensure that the hostname configuration value is stored in some place where it will be readily accessible during early boot. Unfortunately, every init system will attempt to (or has already attempted to) solve this problem in a different, possibly incorrect, way. This makes getting consistently working configurations harder for users. I believe it is better for the kernel to provide the means by which the hostname may be set early, rather than making this a problem for the init system to solve. The option to set the hostname during early startup, via a kernel parameter, provides a simple, reliable way to solve this problem. It also could make system configuration easier for some embedded systems.

crypto: lib - make the sha1 library optional
Since the Linux RNG no longer uses sha1_transform(), the SHA-1 library is no longer needed unconditionally. Make it possible to build the Linux kernel without the SHA-1 library by putting it behind a kconfig option, and selecting this new option from the kconfig options that gate the remaining users: CRYPTO_SHA1 for crypto/sha1_generic.c, BPF for kernel/bpf/core.c, and IPV6 for net/ipv6/addrconf.c. Unfortunately, since BPF is selected by NET, for now this can only make a difference for kernels built without networking support.

module: Move module's Kconfig items in kernel/module/
In init/Kconfig, the part dedicated to modules is quite large. Move it into a dedicated Kconfig in kernel/module/ MODULES_TREE_LOOKUP was outside of the 'if MODULES', but as it is only used when MODULES are set, move it in with everything else to avoid confusion. MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is left in init/Kconfig because this configuration item is not used in kernel/modules/ but in kernel/ and can be selected independently from CONFIG_MODULES. It is for instance selected from security/integrity/ima/Kconfig. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> |

Modules updates for v5.19-rc1
As promised, for v5.19 I queued up quite a bit of work for modules, but still with a pretty conservative eye. These changes have been soaking on modules-next (and so linux-next) for quite some time, the code shift was merged onto modules-next on March 22, and the last patch was queued on May 5th. The following are the highlights of what bells and whistles we will get for v5.19: 1) It was time to tidy up kernel/module.c and one way of starting with that effort was to split it up into files. At my request Aaron Tomlin spearheaded that effort with the goal to not introduce any functional at all during that endeavour. The penalty for the split is +1322 bytes total, +112 bytes in data, +1210 bytes in text while bss is unchanged. One of the benefits of this other than helping make the code easier to read and review is summoning more help on review for changes with livepatching so kernel/module/livepatch.c is now pegged as maintained by the live patching folks. The before and after with just the move on a defconfig on x86-64: $ size kernel/module.o text data bss dec hex filename 38434 4540 104 43078 a846 kernel/module.o $ size -t kernel/module/*.o text data bss dec hex filename 4785 120 0 4905 1329 kernel/module/kallsyms.o 28577 4416 104 33097 8149 kernel/module/main.o 1158 8 0 1166 48e kernel/module/procfs.o 902 108 0 1010 3f2 kernel/module/strict_rwx.o 3390 0 0 3390 d3e kernel/module/sysfs.o 832 0 0 832 340 kernel/module/tree_lookup.o 39644 4652 104 44400 ad70 (TOTALS) 2) Aaron added module unload taint tracking (MODULE_UNLOAD_TAINT_TRACKING), so to enable tracking unloaded modules which did taint the kernel. 3) Christophe Leroy added CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC which lets architectures to request having modules data in vmalloc area instead of module area. There are three reasons why an architecture might want this: a) On some architectures (like book3s/32) it is not possible to protect against execution on a page basis.

At my request Aaron Tomlin spearheaded that effort with the goal to not introduce any functional at all during that endeavour. The penalty for the split is +1322 bytes total, +112 bytes in data, +1210 bytes in text while bss is unchanged. One of the benefits of this other than helping make the code easier to read and review is summoning more help on review for changes with livepatching so kernel/module/livepatch.c is now pegged as maintained by the live patching folks. The before and after with just the move on a defconfig on x86-64: $ size kernel/module.o text data bss dec hex filename 38434 4540 104 43078 a846 kernel/module.o $ size -t kernel/module/*.o text data bss dec hex filename 4785 120 0 4905 1329 kernel/module/kallsyms.o 28577 4416 104 33097 8149 kernel/module/main.o 1158 8 0 1166 48e kernel/module/procfs.o 902 108 0 1010 3f2 kernel/module/strict_rwx.o 3390 0 0 3390 d3e kernel/module/sysfs.o 832 0 0 832 340 kernel/module/tree_lookup.o 39644 4652 104 44400 ad70 (TOTALS) - Aaron added module unload taint tracking (MODULE_UNLOAD_TAINT_TRACKING), to enable tracking unloaded modules which did taint the kernel. - Christophe Leroy added CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC which lets architectures to request having modules data in vmalloc area instead of module area. There are three reasons why an architecture might want this: a) On some architectures (like book3s/32) it is not possible to protect against execution on a page basis. The exec stuff can be mapped by different arch segment sizes (on book3s/32 that is 256M segments). By default the module area is in an Exec segment while vmalloc area is in a NoExec segment. Using vmalloc lets you muck with module data as NoExec on those architectures whereas before you could not. b) By pushing more module data to vmalloc you also increase the probability of module text to remain within a closer distance from kernel core text and this reduces trampolines, this has been reported on arm first and powerpc folks are following that lead. c) Free'ing module_alloc() (Exec by default) area leaves this exposed as Exec by default, some architectures have some security enhancements to set this as NoExec on free, and splitting module data with text let's future generic special allocators be added to the kernel without having developers try to grok the tribal knowledge per arch.

sysctl changes for v5.19-rc1
For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another. This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request, just cleanups. I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while. The last change was merged May 4th. Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed. To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core. Possible merge conflicts and known resolutions as per linux-next: bfp: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220414112812.652190b5@canb.auug.org.au rcu: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220420153746.4790d532@canb.auug.org.au powerpc: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220520154055.7f964b76@canb.auug.org.au -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJGBAABCgAwFiEENnNq2KuOejlQLZofziMdCjCSiKcFAmKOq8ASHG1jZ3JvZkBr ZXJuZWwub3JnAAoJEM4jHQowkoinDAkQAJVo5YVM9f74UwYp4PQhTpjxJBCjRoZD z1u9bp5rMj2ujTC8Fr7VmzKaHrb8+r1C1WvCvZtIzemYNB4lZUrHpVDYfXuXiPRB ihPmEjhlPO5PFBx6cVCpI3cu9bEhG00rLc1QXnABx/pXwNPcOTJAGZJVamZvqubk chjgZrb7N+adHPfvS55v1+zpwdeKfpp5U3zuu5qlT/nn0GS0HCVzOj5fj4oC4wtJ IqfUubo+FX50Ga58yQABWNrjaPD9Crykz5ohVazy3ElQl0hJ4VsK65ct3blqc2vz 1Bb8kPpWuv6aZ5nr1lCVE8qvF4ZIL33ySvpg5BSdWLQEDrBbSpzvJe9Yn7wgR+eq y7fhpO24+zRM82EoDMEvyxX9u1n1RsvoXRtf3ds9BGf63MUxk8a1cgjlU6vuyO2U JhDmfM1xzdKvPoY4COOnHzcAiIqzItTqKd09N5y0cahmYstROU8lvp9huhTAHqk1 SjQMbLIZG7OnX8ZeQcR1EB8sq/IOPZT48ejj0iJmQ8FyMaep71MOQLYyLPAq4lgh JHXm8P6QdB57jfJbqAeNSyZoK0qdxOUR/83Zcah7Jjns6vkju1DNatEsaEEI2y2M 4n7/rkHeZ3TyFHBUX4e9FomKvGLsAalDBRiqsuxLSOPMU8rGrNLAslOAtKwvp90X 4ht3M2VP098l =btwh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sysctl-5.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.

asm-generic changes for 5.19

kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS
include/{linux,asm-generic}/export.h defines a weak symbol, __crc_* as a placeholder. Genksyms writes the version CRCs into the linker script, which will be used for filling the __crc_* symbols. The linker script format depends on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. If it is enabled, __crc_* holds the offset to the reference of CRC. It is time to get rid of this complexity. Now that modpost parses text files (.*.cmd) to collect all the CRCs, it can generate C code that will be linked to the vmlinux or modules. Generate a new C file, .vmlinux.export.c, which contains the CRCs of symbols exported by vmlinux. It is compiled and linked to vmlinux in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh. Put the CRCs of symbols exported by modules into the existing *.mod.c files. No additional build step is needed for modules. As before, *.mod.c are compiled and linked to *.ko in scripts/Makefile.modfinal. No linker magic is used here. The new C implementation works in the same way, whether CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled or not. CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is no longer needed. Previously, Kbuild invoked additional $(LD) to update the CRCs in objects, but this step is unneeded too.

random: handle latent entropy and command line from random_init()
Currently, start_kernel() adds latent entropy and the command line to the entropy bool *after* the RNG has been initialized, deferring when it's actually used by things like stack canaries until the next time the pool is seeded. This surely is not intended. Rather than splitting up which entropy gets added where and when between start_kernel() and random_init(), just do everything in random_init(), which should eliminate these kinds of bugs in the future. While we're at it, rename the awkwardly titled "rand_initialize()" to the more standard "random_init()" nomenclature.

init: call time_init() before rand_initialize()
Currently time_init() is called after rand_initialize(), but rand_initialize() makes use of the timer on various platforms, and sometimes this timer needs to be initialized by time_init() first. In order for random_get_entropy() to not return zero during early boot when it's potentially used as an entropy source, reverse the order of these two calls. The block doing random initialization was right before time_init() before, so changing the order shouldn't have any complicated effects.

mm/uffd: move USERFAULTFD configs into mm/
We used to have USERFAULTFD configs stored in init/. It makes sense as a start because that's the default place for storing syscall related configs. However userfaultfd evolved a bit in the past few years and some more config options were added. They're no longer related to syscalls and start to be not suitable to be kept in the init/ directory anymore, because they're pure mm concepts. But it's not ideal either to keep the userfaultfd configs separate from each other. Hence this patch moves the userfaultfd configs under init/ to be under mm/ so that we'll start to group all userfaultfd configs together. We do have quite a few examples of syscall related configs that are not put under init/Kconfig: FTRACE_SYSCALLS, SWAP, FILE_LOCKING, MEMFD_CREATE.. They all reside in the dir where they're more suitable for the concept. So it seems there's no restriction to keep the role of having syscall related CONFIG_* under init/ only.

module: Introduce module unload taint tracking
Currently, only the initial module that tainted the kernel is recorded e.g. when an out-of-tree module is loaded. The purpose of this patch is to allow the kernel to maintain a record of each unloaded module that taints the kernel. So, in addition to displaying a list of linked modules (see print_modules()) e.g. in the event of a detected bad page, unloaded modules that carried a taint/or taints are displayed too. A tainted module unload count is maintained. The number of tracked modules is not fixed. This feature is disabled by default.

initramfs: refactor do_header() cpio magic checks
Patch series "initramfs: "crc" cpio format and INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME", v7. This patchset does some minor initramfs refactoring and allows cpio entry mtime preservation to be disabled via a new Kconfig INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME option. Patches 4/6 to 6/6 implement support for creation and extraction of "crc" cpio archives, which carry file data checksums. Basic tests for this functionality can be found at https://github.com/rapido-linux/rapido/pull/163 This patch (of 6): do_header() is called for each cpio entry and fails if the first six bytes don't match "newc" magic. The magic check includes a special case error message if POSIX.1 ASCII (cpio -H odc) magic is detected. This special case POSIX.1 check can be nested under the "newc" mismatch code path to avoid calling memcmp() twice in a non-error case.

init: Deal with the init process being a user mode process
It is silly for user_mode_thread to leave PF_KTHREAD set on the resulting task. Update the init process so that it does not care if PF_KTHREAD is set or not. Ensure do_populate_rootfs flushes all delayed fput work by calling task_work_run. In the rare instance that async_schedule_domain calls do_populate_rootfs synchronously it is possible do_populate_rootfs will be called directly from the init process. At which point fput will call "task_work_add(current, ..., TWA_RESUME)". The files on the initramfs need to be completely put before we attempt to exec them (which is before the code enters userspace). So call task_work_run just in case there are any pending fput operations. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220506141512.516114-5-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

bootconfig: Support embedding a bootconfig file in kernel
This allows kernel developer to embed a default bootconfig file in the kernel instead of embedding it in the initrd. This will be good for who are using the kernel without initrd, or who needs a default bootconfigs. This needs to set two kconfigs: CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y and set the file path to CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE. Note that you still need 'bootconfig' command line option to load the embedded bootconfig. Also if you boot using an initrd with a different bootconfig, the kernel will use the bootconfig in the initrd, instead of the default bootconfig.
