39d114ddc6 arm64: add KASAN support
This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer
(see Documentation/kasan.txt).

1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. There was no
big enough hole for this, so virtual addresses for shadow were
stolen from vmalloc area.

At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just
one physical page (kasan_zero_page). Later, this page reused
as readonly zero shadow for some memory that KASan currently
don't track (vmalloc).
After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are
allocated and mapped.

Functions like memset/memmove/memcpy do a lot of memory accesses.
If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important
to catch this. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since
these functions are written in assembly.
KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants.
Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions
in mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases
with '__' prefix in name, so we could call non-instrumented variant
if needed.
Some files built without kasan instrumentation (e.g. mm/slub.c).
Original mem* function replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants
to disable memory access checks for such files.

Recursive dependency issues with kconfig are unavoidable due to

provide a hint to the user how they can resolve these dependency
issues and also document why such limitation exists.

While at it also document a bit of future prospects of ways to
enhance Kconfig, including providing formal semantics and evaluation
of use of a SAT solver. If you're interested in this work or prospects
of it check out the kconfig-sat project wiki [0] and mailing list [1].

47490ec141 modpost: Add flag -E for making section mismatches fatal
The section mismatch warning can be easy to miss during the kernel build
process. Allow it to be marked as fatal to be easily caught and prevent
bugs from slipping in.

Setting CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH_WARN_ONLY=y causes these warnings to be
non-fatal, since there are a number of section mismatches when using
allmodconfig on some architectures, and we do not want to break these
builds by default.

d2036f30cf scripts/kconfig/Makefile: Allow KBUILD_DEFCONFIG to be a target
Arch Makefiles can set KBUILD_DEFCONFIG to tell kbuild the name of the
defconfig that should be built by default.

However currently there is an assumption that KBUILD_DEFCONFIG points to
a file at arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/$(KBUILD_DEFCONFIG).

We would like to use a target, using merge_config, as our defconfig, so
adapt the logic in scripts/kconfig/Makefile to allow that.

To minimise the chance of breaking anything, we first check if
KBUILD_DEFCONFIG is a file, and if so we do the old logic. If it's not a
file, then we call the top-level Makefile with KBUILD_DEFCONFIG as the
target.

b479bfd00e DocBook: Use a fixed encoding for output
Currently the encoding of documents generated by DocBook depends on
the current locale.  Make the output reproducible independently of
the locale, by setting the encoding to UTF-8 (LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8) by
preference, or ASCII (LC_CTYPE=C) as a fallback.

LC_CTYPE can normally be overridden by LC_ALL, but the top-level
Makefile unsets that.

283e8ba2df MODSIGN: Change from CMS to PKCS#7 signing if the openssl is too old
The sign-file.c program actually uses CMS rather than PKCS#7 to sign a file
since that allows the target X.509 certificate to be specified by
subjectKeyId rather than by issuer + serialNumber.

However, older versions of the OpenSSL crypto library (such as may be found
in CentOS 5.11) don't support CMS.  Assume everything prior to
OpenSSL-1.0.0 doesn't support CMS and switch to using PKCS#7 in that case.

Further, the pre-1.0.0 OpenSSL only supports PKCS#7 signing with SHA1, so
give an error from the sign-file script if the caller requests anything
other than SHA1.

The compiler gives the following error with an OpenSSL crypto library
that's too old:

  HOSTCC  scripts/sign-file
scripts/sign-file.c:23:25: fatal error: openssl/cms.h: No such file or directory
 #include <openssl/cms.h>

4d73270192 scripts/kernel-doc: Replacing highlights hash by an array
The "highlight" code is very sensible to the order of the hash keys,
but the order of the keys cannot be predicted. It generates
faulty DocBook entries like:
	- @<function>device_for_each_child</function>

Sorting the result is not enough some times (as it's deterministic but
we can't control it).
We should use an array for that job, so we can guarantee that the order
of the regex execution on dohighlight is correct.

[jc: I think this is kind of papering around the real problem, that people
 are saying @function() when "function" is not a parameter.  But this makes
 things better than they were before, so...]

Currently kernel-doc generates a dummy DocBook file when asked to
convert a C source file with no structured comments.  For an
out-of-tree build (objtree != srctree), the title of the output file

in a manual page being created alongside the C source file.

23aebb3c05 scripts/kernel-doc: Processing -nofunc for functions only
Docproc processes the EXPORT_SYMBOL(f1) macro and uses -nofunc f1 to
avoid duplicated documentation in the next call.
It works for most of the cases, but there are some specific situations
where a struct has the same name of an already-exported function.

Current kernel-doc behavior ignores those structs and does not add them
to the final documentation. This patch fixes it.

This is unusual, the only case I've found is the drm_modeset_lock
(function and struct) defined in drm_modeset_lock.h and
drm_modeset_lock.c. Considering this, it should only affect the DRM
documentation by including struct drm_modeset_lock to the final Docbook.

86406b1cb7 checkpatch: always check block comment styles
Some of the block comment tests that are used only for networking are
appropriate for all patches.

For example, these styles are not encouraged:

	/*
	 block comment without introductory *
	*/
and
	/*
	 * block comment with line terminating */

Remove the networking specific test and add comments.

There are some infrequent false positives where code is lazily
commented out using /* and */ rather than using #if 0/#endif blocks
like:
	/* case foo:
	case bar: */
	case baz:

100425deeb checkpatch: add some <foo>_destroy functions to NEEDLESS_IF tests
Sergey Senozhatsky has modified several destroy functions that can
now be called with NULL values.

 - kmem_cache_destroy()
 - mempool_destroy()
 - dma_pool_destroy()

Update checkpatch to warn when those functions are preceded by an if.

Update checkpatch to --fix all the calls too only when the code style
form is using leading tabs.

from:
	if (foo)
		<func>(foo);
to:
	<func>(foo);
