This commit adds support for embedding PIEs into the kernel, loading them
into genalloc sections, performing necessary relocations, and running code
from them. This allows platforms that need to run code from SRAM, such
an during suspend/resume, to develop that code in C instead of assembly.
Functions and data for each PIE should be grouped into sections with the
__pie(<group>) and __pie_data(<group>) macros respectively. Any symbols or
functions that are to be accessed from outside the PIE should be marked with
EXPORT_PIE_SYMBOL(<sym>). For example:
static struct ddr_timings xyz_timings __pie_data(platformxyz) = {
[...]
};
void __pie(platformxyz) xyz_ddr_on(void *addr)
{
[...]
}
EXPORT_PIE_SYMBOL(xyz_ddr_on);
While the kernel can access exported symbols from the PIE, the PIE cannot
access symbols from the kernel, but can access data from the kernel and
call functions in the kernel so long as addresses are passed into the PIE.
PIEs are loaded from the kernel into a genalloc pool with pie_load_sections.
pie_load_sections allocates space within the pool, copies the neccesary
code/data, and performs any necessary relocations. A chunk identifier is
returned for removing the PIE from the pool, and for translating symbols.
Because the PIEs are dynamically relocated, special accessors must be used
to access PIE symbols from kernel code:
- kern_to_pie(chunk, ptr): Translate a PIE symbol to the virtual address
it is loaded into within the pool.
- fn_to_pie(chunk, ptr): Same as above, but for function pointers.
- sram_to_phys(chunk, addr): Translate a virtual address within a loaded PIE
to a physical address.
Loading a PIE involves three main steps. First a set of common functions to
cover built-ins emitted by gcc (memcpy, memmove, etc) is copied into the pool.
Then the actual PIE code and data is copied into the pool. Because the PIE
code is contained within an overlay with other PIEs, offsets to the common
functions are maintained. Finally, relocations are performed as necessary.

commit f6537f2f0e upstream.
This patch uses CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET to filter symbols which
are not in kernel address space because these symbols are
generally for generating code purpose and can't be run at
kernel mode, so we needn't keep them in /proc/kallsyms.
For example, on ARM there are some symbols which may be
linked in relocatable code section, then perf can't parse
symbols any more from /proc/kallsyms, this patch fixes the
problem (introduced b9b32bf70f)

Previously, the #line parsing regex ended with ({WS}+[0-9]+)?. The {WS}
could match line-break characters. If the #line directive did not contain
the optional flags field at the end, this could cause any integer data on
the next line to be consumed as part of the #line directive parsing. This
could cause syntax errors (i.e. #line parsing consuming the leading 0
from a hex literal 0x1234, leaving x1234 to be parsed as cell data,
which is a syntax error), or invalid compilation results (i.e. simply
consuming literal 1234 as part of the #line processing, thus removing it
from the cell data).
Fix this by replacing {WS} with [ \t] so that it can't match line-breaks.
Convert all instances of {WS}, even though the other instances should be
irrelevant for any well-formed #line directive. This is done for
consistency and ultimate safety.

This patch merely updates the generated dtc parser and lexer files to
the output generated by Bison 2.5. The previous versions were generated
from version 2.4.1. The only reason for this commit is to minimize the
diff on the next commit which fixes a bug in the DTC #line directive
parsing. Otherwise the Bison changes would be intermingled with the
functional changes.

menu_add_prop() applies upper menus' visibilities to actual prompts
by AND-ing the prompts visibilities with the upper menus ones.
This creates a further reference to the menu's visibilities and when
the expression reduction functions do their work, they may remove or
modify expressions that have multiple references, thus causing
unpredictable side-effects.
The following example Kconfig constructs a case where this causes
problems: a menu and a prompt which's visibilities depend on the same
symbol. When invoking mconf with this Kconfig and pressing "Z" we
see a problem caused by a free'd expression still referenced by the
menu's visibility:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
mainmenu "Kconfig Testing Configuration"
config VISIBLE
def_bool n
config Placeholder
bool "Place holder"
menu "Invisible"
visible if VISIBLE
config TEST_VAR
bool "Test option" if VISIBLE
endmenu
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch fixes this problem by creating copies of the menu's
visibility expressions before AND-ing them with the prompt's one.

In commit b40b25ff (kbuild: always run gcc -E on *.dts, remove cmd_dtc_cpp),
dts building was changed to always use the C preprocessor. This meant
that the .dts file passed to dtc is not the original, but the
preprocessed one.
When compiling with a separate build directory (i.e., with O=), this
preprocessed file will not live in the same directory as the original.
When the .dts file includes .dtsi files, dtc will look for them in the
build directory, not in the source directory and compilation will fail.
The commit referenced above tried to fix this by passing arch/*/boot/dts
as an include path to dtc. However, for mips, the .dts files are not in
this directory, so dts compilation on mips breaks for some targets.
Instead of hardcoding this particular include path, this commit just
uses the directory of the .dts file that is being compiled, which
effectively restores the previous behaviour wrt includes. For most .dts
files, this path is just the same as the previous hardcoded
arch/*/boot/dts path.
This was tested on a mips (rt3052) and an arm (bcm2835) target.

When --*-after options are used, two parameters are parsed from the
command-line before the adequate function is called:
- the `before' option, after which the new option will be inserted,
- the name of the option to enable/disable/modularise.
With the short version of --*-after options (namely -E, -D, -M), the
parsing step is not performed which leads to processing unset variables.
Add options -E, -D, -M to the test that triggers assignment of parameters
for --*-after options.

Searching for PPC_EFIKA results in a segmentation fault, and it's
because get_symbol_prop() returns NULL.
In this case CONFIG_PPC_EFIKA is defined in arch/powerpc/platforms/
52xx/Kconfig, so it won't be parsed if ARCH!=PPC, but menuconfig knows
this symbol when it parses sound/soc/fsl/Kconfig:
config SND_MPC52xx_SOC_EFIKA
tristate "SoC AC97 Audio support for bbplan Efika and STAC9766"
