26660a4046 Merge branch 'core-objtool-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature
  (ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation.
  It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf.

  The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most
  of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that
  degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces.  These bugs are
  hard to detect at the source code level.  Such bugs result in
  incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some
  rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior.

  The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool'
  user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is
  hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/.  The tool's (very
  simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and
  shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling
  infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already
  upstream).  Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style.

  Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the
  resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes
  the instruction stream and interprets it.  (Right now objtool supports
  the x86-64 architecture.)

  From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt:

   "The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named
    objtool which runs at compile time.  It has a "check" subcommand
    which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack
    metadata.  It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline
    assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable.

    Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to
    add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files.

    For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths
    and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction.

    It also follows code paths involving special sections, like
    .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add
    alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of
    instructions).  Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements,
    for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables."

  When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the
  tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs
  warnings in compiler warning format:

    warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch
    warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup
    warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
    warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer

  ... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them.
  All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most
  of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free.  Most of
  them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are
  also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases
  such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code.

  There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well:

   - To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so
     that they can be used for optimized live patching.

   - To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of
     CFI stack frames at build time.  CFI debuginfo is notoriously
     unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra
     checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side.

  The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well,
  so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching
  or CFI debuginfo angle"

3b27a0c85d objtool: Detect and warn if libelf is missing and don't break the build
With CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION enabled, if the host system doesn't have
a development version of libelf installed, the build fails with errors
like:

  elf.h:22:18: fatal error: gelf.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.

Instead of failing to build, instead just print a warning and disable
stack validation.

  scripts/Makefile.include:3: *** O=foo does not exist.  Stop.
  /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/Makefile:1547: recipe for target 'tools/objtool' failed

The tools Makefile gets confused by the relative path and tries to build

c6d308534a UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checker
UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior
(UB).  Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before
operations that could cause UB.  If check fails (i.e.  UB detected)
__ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message.

So the most of the work is done by compiler.  This patch just implements
ubsan handlers printing errors.

GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined
option and its suboptions).
However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2].
Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

[1] - https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.9.0/gcc/Debugging-Options.html
[2] - https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Debugging-Options.html
[3] - http://developerblog.redhat.com/2014/10/16/gcc-undefined-behavior-sanitizer-ubsan/

Issues which UBSAN has found thus far are:

Found bugs:

 * out-of-bounds access - 97840cb67f ("netfilter: nfnetlink: fix
   insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind")

undefined shifts:

 * d48458d4a7 ("jbd2: use a better hash function for the revoke
   table")

 * 10632008b9 ("clockevents: Prevent shift out of bounds")

 * 'x << -1' shift in ext4 -
   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<5444EF21.8020501@samsung.com>

 * undefined rol32(0) -
   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<1449198241-20654-1-git-send-email-sasha.levin@oracle.com>

 * undefined dirty_ratelimit calculation -
   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<566594E2.3050306@odin.com>

 * undefined roundown_pow_of_two(0) -
   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<1449156616-11474-1-git-send-email-sasha.levin@oracle.com>

 * [WONTFIX] undefined shift in __bpf_prog_run -
   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<CACT4Y+ZxoR3UjLgcNdUm4fECLMx2VdtfrENMtRRCdgHB2n0bJA@mail.gmail.com>

   WONTFIX here because it should be fixed in bpf program, not in kernel.

signed overflows:

 * 32a8df4e0b ("sched: Fix odd values in effective_load()
   calculations")

 * mul overflow in ntp -

 PPC: Mostly bug fixes.
 
 ARM: No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including:
 - a number of fixes for the arch-timer
 - introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers
 - a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite for
   IRQ forwarding)
 - some tracepoint improvements
 - a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers
 - some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state
 
 x86: quite a few changes:
 
 - support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject
 interrupts directly into vCPUs).  This introduces a new component (in
 virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together.  The same infrastructure
 will be used for ARM interrupt forwarding as well.
 
 - more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic interrupt
 controller will have to wait for 4.5.  These will let KVM expose Hyper-V
 devices.
 
 - nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for vCPUs)
 which makes it quite a bit faster
 
 - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for clflushopt,
 clwb, pcommit
 
 - support for "split irqchip", i.e. LAPIC in kernel + IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in
 userspace, which reduces the attack surface of the hypervisor
 
 - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes
 
 - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten to not
 require help from the hypervisor.

        vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster

      - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for
        clflushopt, clwb, pcommit

      - support for "split irqchip", i.e.  LAPIC in kernel +
        IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of
        the hypervisor

      - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes

      - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten
        to not require help from the hypervisor"

dcb825a9fd kselftest: add kselftest-clean rule
We use

    $make TARGETS="size timers" kselftest

to build and run selftests. but there is no rule
for us to clean the kselftest generated files.

This patch add the rules, for example:

	$ make TARGETS="size timers" kselftest-clean

can clean all kselftest generated files.

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.

     ** NOTE: this requires linking against the OpenSSL library, which
        must be installed, e.g.  the openssl-devel on Fedora **

   - Smack
      - add IPv6 host labeling; ignore labels on kernel threads
      - support smack labeling mounts which use binary mount data

   - SELinux:
      - add ioctl whitelisting (see
        http://kernsec.org/files/lss2015/vanderstoep.pdf)
      - fix mprotect PROT_EXEC regression caused by mm change

5631d9c429 kbuild: Fix clang detection
We cannot detect clang before including the arch Makefile, because that
can set the default cross compiler. We also cannot detect clang after
including the arch Makefile, because powerpc wants to know about clang.
Solve this by using an deferred variable. This costs us a few shell
invocations, but this is only a constant number.

3ee550f12c modsign: Handle signing key in source tree
Since commit 1329e8cc69 ("modsign: Extract signing cert from
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY if needed"), the build system has carefully coped
with the signing key being specified as a relative path in either the
source or or the build trees.

However, the actual signing of modules has not worked if the filename
is relative to the source tree.

Fix that by moving the config_filename helper into scripts/Kbuild.include
so that it can be used from elsewhere, and then using it in the top-level
Makefile to find the signing key file.

Kill the intermediate $(MODPUBKEY) and $(MODSECKEY) variables too, while
we're at it. There's no need for them.
