80d65e58e9 MODSIGN: Sign modules during the build process
If CONFIG_MODULE_SIG is set, then this patch will cause all modules files to
to have signatures added.  The following steps will occur:

 (1) The module will be linked to foo.ko.unsigned instead of foo.ko

 (2) The module will be stripped using both "strip -x -g" and "eu-strip" to
     ensure minimal size for inclusion in an initramfs.

 (3) The signature will be generated on the stripped module.

 (4) The signature will be appended to the module, along with some information
     about the signature and a magic string that indicates the presence of the
     signature.

Step (3) requires private and public keys to be available.  By default these
are expected to be found in files:

	signing_key.priv
	signing_key.x509

in the base directory of the build.  The first is the private key in PEM form
and the second is the X.509 certificate in DER form as can be generated from
openssl:

	openssl req \
		-new -x509 -outform PEM -out signing_key.x509 \
		-keyout signing_key.priv -nodes \
		-subj "/CN=H2G2/O=Magrathea/CN=Slartibartfast"

If the secret key is not found then signing will be skipped and the unsigned
module from (1) will just be copied to foo.ko.

If signing occurs, lines like the following will be seen:

	LD [M]  fs/foo/foo.ko.unsigned
	STRIP [M] fs/foo/foo.ko.stripped
	SIGN [M] fs/foo/foo.ko

will appear in the build log.  If the signature step will be skipped and the
following will be seen:

	LD [M]  fs/foo/foo.ko.unsigned
	STRIP [M] fs/foo/foo.ko.stripped
	NO SIGN [M] fs/foo/foo.ko

NOTE!  After the signature step, the signed module _must_not_ be passed through
strip.  The unstripped, unsigned module is still available at the name on the
LD [M] line.  This restriction may affect packaging tools (such as rpmbuild)
and initramfs composition tools.

85ecac7945 MODSIGN: Provide a script for generating a key ID from an X.509 cert
Provide a script to parse an X.509 certificate and certain pieces of
information from it in order to generate a key identifier to be included within
a module signature.

The script takes the Subject Name and extracts (if present) the
organizationName (O), the commonName (CN) and the emailAddress and fabricates
the signer's name from them:

 (1) If both O and CN exist, then the name will be "O: CN", unless:

     (a) CN is prefixed by O, in which case only CN is used.

     (b) CN and O share at least the first 7 characters, in which case only CN
     	 is used.

 (2) Otherwise, CN is used if present.

 (3) Otherwise, O is used if present.

 (4) Otherwise the emailAddress is used, if present.

 (5) Otherwise a blank name is used.

The script emits a binary encoded identifier in the following form:

 - 2 BE bytes indicating the length of the signer's name.

 - 2 BE bytes indicating the length of the subject key identifier.

 - The characters of the signer's name.

 - The bytes of the subject key identifier.

4520c6a49a X.509: Add simple ASN.1 grammar compiler
Add a simple ASN.1 grammar compiler.  This produces a bytecode output that can
be fed to a decoder to inform the decoder how to interpret the ASN.1 stream it
is trying to parse.

Action functions can be specified in the grammar by interpolating:

	({ foo })

after a type, for example:

	SubjectPublicKeyInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
		algorithm		AlgorithmIdentifier,
		subjectPublicKey	BIT STRING ({ do_key_data })
		}

The decoder is expected to call these after matching this type and parsing the
contents if it is a constructed type.

The grammar compiler does not currently support the SET type (though it does
support SET OF) as I can't see a good way of tracking which members have been
encountered yet without using up extra stack space.

Currently, the grammar compiler will fail if more than 256 bytes of bytecode
would be produced or more than 256 actions have been specified as it uses
8-bit jump values and action indices to keep space usage down.

12ae677933 kernel-doc: don't mangle whitespace in Example section
A section with the name "Example" (case-insensitive) has a special meaning
to kernel-doc.  These sections are output using mono-type fonts.  However,
leading whitespace is stripped, thus robbing a lot of meaning from this,
as indented code examples will be mangled.

This patch preserves the leading whitespace for "Example" sections.  More
accurately, it preserves it for all sections, but removes it later if the
section isn't an "Example" section.

e314ba3130 kernel-doc: bugfix - empty line in Example section

Essentially, the script attempts to close a <programlisting> with a
closing tag for a <para> block.  This patch corrects the problem by
simply not outputting anything extra when we're dumping pre-formatted
text, since the empty line will be rendered correctly anyway.

6547842844 kernel-doc: bugfix - multi-line macros
Prior to this patch the following code breaks:

/**

 */
 #define multiline_example( \
myparam)

Producing this error:

Error(somefile.h:983): cannot understand prototype: 'multiline_example( \ '

This patch fixes the issue by appending all lines ending in a blackslash
(optionally followed by whitespace), removing the backslash and any
whitespace after it prior to appending (just like the C pre-processor
would).

This fixes a break in kerel-doc introduced by the additions to rbtree.h.

c353acba28 kbuild: make: fix if_changed when command contains backslashes
The call if_changed mechanism does not work when the command contains
backslashes.  This basically is an issue with lzo and bzip2 compressed
kernels.  The compressed binaries do not contain the uncompressed image
size, so these use size_append to append the size.  This results in
backslashes in the executed command.  With this if_changed always
detects a change in the command and rebuilds the compressed image even
if nothing has changed.

Fix this by escaping backslashes in make-cmd

Pull preparatory patches for user API disintegration from David Howells:
 "The patches herein prepare for the extraction of the Userspace API
  bits from the various header files named in the Kbuild files.

  New subdirectories are created under either include/uapi/ or
  arch/x/include/uapi/ that correspond to the subdirectory containing
  that file under include/ or arch/x/include/.

  The new subdirs under the uapi/ directory are populated with Kbuild
  files that mostly do nothing at this time.  Further patches will
  disintegrate the headers in each original directory and fill in the
  Kbuild files as they do it.

  These patches also:

   (1) fix up #inclusions of "foo.h" rather than <foo.h>.

   (2) Remove some redundant #includes from the DRM code.

   (3) Make the kernel build infrastructure handle Kbuild files both in
       the old places and the new UAPI place that both specify headers
       to be exported.

   (4) Fix some kernel tools that #include kernel headers during their
       build.

  allmodconfig against i386 and a scattering of additional defconfigs of

b1e0d8b70f kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax
The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
"gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
such as icecream do expect.

This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
miscompilations.

Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this

10b63956fc UAPI: Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking
Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system.
As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old
Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files.

The changes made in this commit are:

 (1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to
     uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we
     get:

	include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
	arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h
	arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h
	arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h

     These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch.

 (2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from
     rather than the old path.

     It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also
     if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory
     during the changeover.

     I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a
     directory not the install program.

 (3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths
     instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly
     where to find each file.

     For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each
     output directory:

	.../include/uapi/foo/
	.../include/generated/uapi/foo/
	.../include/foo/
	.../include/generated/foo/

     The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.
