Pull SElinux fix from James Morris:
"From Paul:
'A small SELinux patch to fix some clang/llvm compiler warnings and
ensure the tools under scripts work well in the face of kernel
changes'"* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security:
selinux: use the kernel headers when building scripts/selinux
21 Dec, 2016
1 commit
-
Commit 3322d0d64f4e ("selinux: keep SELinux in sync with new capability
definitions") added a check on the defined capabilities without
explicitly including the capability header file which caused problems
when building genheaders for users of clang/llvm. Resolve this by
using the kernel headers when building genheaders, which is arguably
the right thing to do regardless, and explicitly including the
kernel's capability.h header file in classmap.h. We also update the
mdp build, even though it wasn't causing an error we really should
be using the headers from the kernel we are building.Reported-by: Nicolas Iooss

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Highlights include:- Support for the kexec_file_load() syscall, which is a prereq for
secure and trusted boot.- Prevent kernel execution of userspace on P9 Radix (similar to
SMEP/PXN).- Sort the exception tables at build time, to save time at boot, and
store them as relative offsets to save space in the kernel image &
memory.- Allow building the kernel with thin archives, which should allow us
to build an allyesconfig once some other fixes land.- Build fixes to allow us to correctly rebuild when changing the
kernel endian from big to little or vice versa.- Plumbing so that we can avoid doing a full mm TLB flush on P9
Radix.- Initial stack protector support (-fstack-protector).
- Support for dumping the radix (aka. Linux) and hash page tables via
debugfs.- Fix an oops in cxl coredump generation when cxl_get_fd() is used.

When src and dst both are specified and they point to the same file
the sign-file utility will write only signature to the dst file and
the module (.ko file) body will not be written.
That happens because we open the same file with "rb" and "wb" flags,
from fopen man:w Truncate file to zero length or create text file for writing.
The stream is positioned at the beginning of the file.

bm = BIO_new_file(module_name, "rb");

In the upcoming gcc7 release, the -fsanitize=kernel-address option at
first implied new -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope option. This would
cause link errors on older kernels because they don't have two new
functions required for use-after-scope support. Therefore, gcc7 changed
default to -fno-sanitize-address-use-after-scope.Now the kernel has everything required for that feature since commit
828347f8f9a5 ("kasan: support use-after-scope detection"). So, to make it
work, we just have to enable use-after-scope in CFLAGS.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1481207977-28654-1-git-send-email-aryabinin@virtuozzo.com

When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y and no modules are actually selected,
the adjust_autoksyms.sh script fails with:sed: can't read .tmp_versions/*.mod: No such file or directory
Let's cope with that case gracefully.

qconfig initial slider sizes fix.
On first `make xconfig`, suboption and help panels were hidden.
Now we properly detect the first run, and show those panels.Reported-by: Jason Vas Dias

The implementation of the --page-offset kallsyms command line option has
been removed, so remove it from the usage string as well.Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel
Signed-off-by: Michal Marek -
Currently it is impossible to edit the value of a config symbol with a
prompt longer than (terminal width - 2) characters. dialog_inputbox()
calculates a negative x-offset for the input window and newwin() fails
as this is invalid. It also doesn't check for this failure, so it
busy-loops calling wgetch(NULL) which immediately returns -1.The additions in the offset calculations also don't match the intended
size of the window.Limit the window size and calculate the offset similarly to
show_scroll_win().Cc: stable
