When using a non-release version of Sphinx, from a local build (with
improvements for kernel doc handling, why not),sphinx-build --version
reports versions of the form
sphinx-build 3.0.0+/4703d9119972
i.e. base version, a plus symbol, slash, and the start of the git hash
of whatever repository the command is run in (no, not the hash that
was used to build Sphinx!).This patch fixes the installation check in sphinx-pre-install to
recognise such version output.Signed-off-by: Stephen Kitt

Since commit 89b9060987d9 ("kconfig: Add yes2modconfig and
mod2yesconfig targets.") forgot to clear SYMBOL_VALID bit after
changing to y or m, these targets did not save the changes.
Call sym_clear_all_valid() so that all symbols are revalidated.Fixes: 89b9060987d9 ("kconfig: Add yes2modconfig and mod2yesconfig targets.")

The symbol table is extended every 10000 addition by using realloc(),
where data copy might occur to the new buffer.To decrease the amount of possible data copy, let's change the table
to store the pointer.The symbol type + symbol name part is appended at the end of
(struct sym_entry), and allocated together with the struct body.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogsSo, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

Running randconfig on arm64 using KCONFIG_SEED=0x40C5E904 (e.g. on v5.5)
produces the .config with CONFIG_EFI=y and CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y,
which does not meet the !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN dependency.This is because the user choice for CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN vs
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is set by randomize_choice_values() after the
value of CONFIG_EFI is calculated.When this happens, the has_changed flag should be set.
Currently, it takes the result from the last iteration. It should
accumulate all the results of the loop.Fixes: 3b9a19e08960 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some symbols in randconfig")

"The changes are a real mixed bag this time around.The only scary looking one from the diffstat is the uapi change to

actually just adding a pair of comments in an attempt to prevent
allocation of some PROT values which tend to get used for
arch-specific purposes. We'll be using them for Branch Target
Identification (a CFI-like hardening feature), which is currently
under review on the mailing list.New architecture features:
- Support for Armv8.5 E0PD, which benefits KASLR in the same way as
KPTI but without the overhead. This allows KPTI to be disabled on
CPUs that are not affected by Meltdown, even is KASLR is enabled.- Initial support for the Armv8.5 RNG instructions, which claim to
provide access to a high bandwidth, cryptographically secure
hardware random number generator. As well as exposing these to
userspace, we also use them as part of the KASLR seed and to seed
the crng once all CPUs have come online.- Advertise a bunch of new instructions to userspace, including
support for Data Gathering Hint, Matrix Multiply and 16-bit
floating point.Kexec:
- Cleanups in preparation for relocating with the MMU enabled
- Support for loading crash dump kernels with kexec_file_load()
Perf and PMU drivers:
- Cleanups and non-critical fixes for a couple of system PMU drivers
FPU-less (aka broken) CPU support:
- Considerable fixes to support CPUs without the FP/SIMD extensions,
including their presence in heterogeneous systems. Good luck
finding a 64-bit userspace that handles this.Modern assembly function annotations:
- Start migrating our use of ENTRY() and ENDPROC() over to the
new-fangled SYM_{CODE,FUNC}_{START,END} macros, which are intended
to aid debuggersKbuild:
- Cleanup detection of LSE support in the assembler by introducing
'as-instr'- Remove compressed Image files when building clean targets
IP checksumming:
- Implement optimised IPv4 checksumming routine when hardware offload
is not in use. An IPv6 version is in the works, pending testing.Hardware errata:
- Work around Cortex-A55 erratum #1530923
Shadow call stack:
- Work around some issues with Clang's integrated assembler not
liking our perfectly reasonable assembly code- Avoid allocating the X18 register, so that it can be used to hold
the shadow call stack pointer in futureACPI:
- Fix ID count checking in IORT code. This may regress broken
firmware that happened to work with the old implementation, in
which case we'll have to revert it and try something else- Fix DAIF corruption on return from GHES handler with pseudo-NMIs
Miscellaneous:
- Whitelist some CPUs that are unaffected by Spectre-v2
- Reduce frequency of ASID rollover when KPTI is compiled in but
inactive- Reserve a couple of arch-specific PROT flags that are already used
by Sparc and PowerPC and are planned for later use with BTI on

When trying to compile with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF enabled, I got this
error:% make -s
Failed to generate BTF for vmlinux
Try to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF
make[3]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1Compiling again without -s shows the true error (that pahole is
missing), but since this is fatal, we should show the error
unconditionally on stderr as well, not silence it using the `info`
function. With this patch:% make -s
BTF: .tmp_vmlinux.btf: pahole (pahole) is not available

Currently, -E (stop after the preprocessing stage) is used to check
whether the given compiler flag is supported.While it is faster than -S (or -c), it can be false-positive. You need
to run the compilation proper to check the flag more precisely.For example, -E and -S disagree about the support of
"--param asan-instrument-allocas=1".$ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -E -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null
$ echo $?
0$ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -S -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null
cc1: error: invalid --param name ‘asan-instrument-allocas’; did you mean ‘asan-instrument-writes’?
$ echo $?

Select deb compression using KDEB_COMPRESS make variable. This allows to
use gzip compression for local or test builds, and that's way faster
than now-default xz compression.Signed-off-by: Michał Mirosław

Bartosz Golaszewski reports that when "make {menu,n,g,x}config" fails
due to missing packages, a temporary file is left over, which is not
ignored by git.For example, if GTK+ is not installed:
$ make gconfig
*
* Unable to find the GTK+ installation. Please make sure that
* the GTK+ 2.0 development package is correctly installed.
* You need gtk+-2.0 gmodule-2.0 libglade-2.0

HEAD detached at v5.4
Untracked files:
(use "git add ..." to include in what will be committed)scripts/kconfig/gconf-cfg.tmp
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
This is because the check scripts are run with filechk, which misses
to clean up the temporary file on failure.When the line
{ $(filechk_$(1)); } > $@.tmp;
... fails, it exits immediately due to the 'set -e'. Use trap to make
sure to delete the temporary file on exit.For extra safety, I replaced $@.tmp with $(dot-target).tmp to make it
a hidden file.Reported-by: Bartosz Golaszewski
