scripts/find-unused-docs.sh invokes scripts/kernel-doc to find out if a
source file contains kerneldoc or not.However, as it passes the no longer supported "-text" option to
scripts/kernel-doc, the latter prints out its help text, causing all

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"The changes are a real mixed bag this time around.The only scary looking one from the diffstat is the uapi change to
asm-generic/mman-common.h, but this has been acked by Arnd and is
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
arm64- Preparatory cleanup of our entry assembly code in preparation for
moving more of it into C later on- Refactoring and cleanup"

Similar to 'cc-option' or 'ld-option', it is occasionally necessary to
check whether the assembler supports certain ISA extensions. In the
arm64 code we currently do this in Makefile with an additional define:lseinstr := $(call as-instr,.arch_extension lse,-DCONFIG_AS_LSE=1)
Add the 'as-instr' option so that it can be used in Kconfig directly:
def_bool $(as-instr,.arch_extension lse)

I noticed that randconfig builds with gcc no longer produce a lot of
ccache hits, unlike with clang, and traced this back to plugins
now being enabled unconditionally if they are supported.I am now working around this by adding
export CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK=/usr/bin/size -A %compiler%
to my top-level Makefile. This changes the heuristic that ccache uses
to determine whether the plugins are the same after a 'make clean'.However, it also seems that being able to just turn off the plugins is
generally useful, at least for build testing it adds noticeable overhead
but does not find a lot of bugs additional bugs, and may be easier for
ccache users than my workaround.Fixes: 9f671e58159a ("security: Create "kernel hardening" config area")

NULL expressions are taken to always be true, as implemented by the
expr_is_yes() macro and by several other functions in expr.c. As such,
they ought to be valid inputs to expr_eq(), which compares two
expressions.Signed-off-by: Thomas Hebb

Since commit 5e5c4fa78745 ("scripts/kallsyms: shrink table before
sorting it"), kallsyms_relative_base can be larger than _text, which
causes overflow when building the 32-bit kernel.https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/12/7/156
This is because _text is, unless --all-symbols is specified, now
trimmed from the symbol table before record_relative_base() is called.Handle the offset signedness also for kallsyms_relative_base. Introduce
a new helper, output_address(), to reduce the code duplication.Fixes: 5e5c4fa78745 ("scripts/kallsyms: shrink table before sorting it")

Commit 858805b336be ("kbuild: add $(BASH) to run scripts with
bash-extension") shed light on portability issues. Here is another one.Since commit f07726048d59 ("Fix handling of backlash character in
LINUX_COMPILE_BY name"), we must escape a backslash contained in
LINUX_COMPILE_BY. This is not working on such distros as Ubuntu.As the POSIX spec [1] says, if any of the operands contain a backslash
( '\' ) character, the results are implementation-defined.The actual shell of /bin/sh could be bash, dash, etc. depending on
distros, and the behavior of builtin echo command is different among
them.The bash builtin echo, unless -e is given, copies the arguments to
stdout without expanding escape sequences (BSD-like behavior).The dash builtin echo, in contrast, adopts System V behavior, which
does expand escape sequences without any option given.Even non-builtin /bin/echo behaves differently depending on the system.
Due to these variations, echo is considered as a non-portable command.
Using printf is the common solution to avoid the portability issue.[1] https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/echo.html

UTS_VERSION is set to struct uts_namespace, hence a too long string
should be truncated so it fits in 64 characters.On the other hand, LINUX_COMPILE_BY/HOST are not set to uts_namespace.
They are just used in the banners, which do not have specific length
limitation.I dug into the git history, but I could not find the reason why
these two strings must fit in 64 characters. Remove them.Now that UTS_VERSION is the only user of UTS_TRUNCATE, I squashed it.

Now that the orc_unwind and orc_unwind_ip tables are sorted at build time,
remove the boot time sorting pass.No change in functionality.

The ORC unwinder has two tables: .orc_unwind_ip and .orc_unwind, which
need to be sorted for binary search. Previously this sorting was done
during bootup.Sort them at build time to speed up booting.
Add the ORC tables sorting in a parallel build process to speed up the build.

The scripts/sortextable.c code has originally copied some code from
scripts/recordmount.c, which used the same setjmp/longjmp method to
manage control flow.Meanwhile recordmcount has improved its error handling via:
3f1df12019f3 ("recordmcount: Rewrite error/success handling").
So rewrite this part of sortextable as well to get rid of the setjmp/longjmp
kludges, with additional refactoring, to make it more readable and
easier to extend.No functional changes intended.
