Commit d5e616fc1c1d ("checkpatch: add a few more --fix corrections") broke the GLOBAL_INITIALISERS test with bad parentheses and optional leading spaces. Fix it.

2015-05-28scripts/gdb: fix lx-lsmod refcntAdrien Schildknecht
Commit 2f35c41f58a9 ("module: Replace module_ref with atomic_t refcnt") changes the way refcnt is handled but did not update the gdb script to use the new variable. Since refcnt is not per-cpu anymore, we can directly read its value.

2015-04-22modpost: don't emit section mismatch warnings for compiler optimizationsPaul Gortmaker
Currently an allyesconfig build [gcc-4.9.1] can generate the following: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x3864): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpumask_empty.constprop.3() to the variable .init.data:nmi_ipi_mask which comes from the cpumask_empty usage in arch/x86/kernel/nmi_selftest.c. Normally we would not see a symbol entry for cpumask_empty since it is: static inline bool cpumask_empty(const struct cpumask *srcp) however in this case, the variant of the symbol gets emitted when GCC does constant propagation optimization. Fix things up so that any locally optimized constprop variants don't warn when accessing variables that live in the __init sections.

2015-04-22modpost: expand pattern matching to support substring matchesPaul Gortmaker
Currently the match() function supports a leading * to match any prefix and a trailing * to match any suffix. However there currently is not a combination of both that can be used to target matches of whole families of functions that share a common substring. Here we expand the *foo and foo* match to also support *foo* with the goal of targeting compiler generated symbol names that contain strings like ".constprop." and ".isra."

2015-04-22modpost: fix extable entry size calculation.Quentin Casasnovas
As Guenter pointed out, we were never really calculating the extable entry size because the pointer arithmetic was simply wrong. We want to check we're handling the second relocation in __ex_table to infer an entry size, but we were using (void*) pointers instead of Elf_Rel[a]* ones. This fixes the problem by moving that check in the caller (since we can deal with different types of relocations) and add is_second_extable_reloc() to make the whole thing more readable.

2015-04-22modpost: fix inverted logic in is_extable_fault_address().Quentin Casasnovas
As Guenter pointed out, we want to assert that extable_entry_size has been discovered and not the other way around. Moreover, this sanity check is only valid when we're not dealing with the first relocation in __ex_table, since we have not discovered the extable entry size at that point. This was leading to a divide-by-zero on some architectures and make the build fail.

if()/BUG conversion to BUG_ON must be avoided when there's side effect in condition. The reason being BUG_ON won't execute the condition when CONFIG_BUG is not defined. Inspired-by: J.

Support for kernel image LZ4 compression was added around 3.11, but not the corresponding kernel .config extraction. This makes possible extracting the kernel config for LZ4-compressed kernels you're not running, or the current LZ4-compressed kernel if compiled without /proc/config.gz support.

2015-04-13modpost: document the use of struct section_check.Quentin Casasnovas
struct section_check is used as a generic way of describing what relocations are authorized/forbidden when running modpost. This commit tries to describe how each field is used.

2015-04-13modpost: handle relocations mismatch in __ex_table.Quentin Casasnovas
__ex_table is a simple table section where each entry is a pair of addresses - the first address is an address which can fault in kernel space, and the second address points to where the kernel should jump to when handling that fault. This is how copy_from_user() does not crash the kernel if userspace gives a borked pointer for example. If one of these addresses point to a non-executable section, something is seriously wrong since it either means the kernel will never fault from there or it will not be able to jump to there. As both cases are serious enough, we simply error out in these cases so the build fails and the developper has to fix the issue. In case the section is executable, but it isn't referenced in our list of authorized sections to point to from __ex_table, we just dump a warning giving more information about it. We do this in case the new section is executable but isn't supposed to be executed by the kernel. This happened with .altinstr_replacement, which is executable but is only used to copy instructions from - we should never have our instruction pointer pointing in .altinstr_replacement. Admitedly, a proper fix in that case would be to just set .altinstr_replacement NX, but we need to warn about future cases like this.

2015-04-13scripts: add check_extable.sh script.Quentin Casasnovas
This shell script can be used to sanity check the __ex_table section on an object file, making sure the relocations in there are pointing to valid executable sections. If it finds some suspicious relocations, it'll use addr2line to try and dump where this is coming from. This works best with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO.
