4a224acec5 fpga: dfl: add dfl bus support to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()
Device Feature List (DFL) is a linked list of feature headers within the
device MMIO space. It is used by FPGA to enumerate multiple sub features
within it. Each feature can be uniquely identified by DFL type and
feature id, which can be read out from feature headers.

A dfl bus helps DFL framework modularize DFL device drivers for
different sub features. The dfl bus matches its devices and drivers by
DFL type and feature id.

This patch adds dfl bus support to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() by adding info
about struct dfl_device_id in devicetable-offsets.c and add a dfl entry
point in file2alias.c.

d8f6e5c6c8 scripts: coccicheck: Correct usage of make coccicheck
The command "make coccicheck C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck" results in the
error:
        ./scripts/coccicheck: line 65: -1: shift count out of range

This happens because every time the C variable is specified,
the shell arguments need to be "shifted" in order to take only
the last argument, which is the C file to test. These shell arguments
mostly comprise flags that have been set in the Makefile. However,
when coccicheck is specified in the make command as a rule, the
number of shell arguments is zero, thus passing the invalid value -1
to the shift command, resulting in an error.

Modify coccicheck to print correct usage of make coccicheck so as to
avoid the error.

9ab55d7f24 genksyms: Ignore module scoped _Static_assert()
The C11 _Static_assert() keyword may be used at module scope, and we
need to teach genksyms about it to not abort with an error. We currently
have a growing number of static_assert() (but also direct usage of
_Static_assert()) users at module scope:

	git grep -E '^_Static_assert\(|^static_assert\(' | grep -v '^tools' | wc -l
	135

More recently, when enabling CONFIG_MODVERSIONS with CONFIG_KCSAN, we
observe a number of warnings:

	WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "<..all kcsan symbols..>" [vmlinux] [...]

When running a preprocessed source through 'genksyms -w' a number of
syntax errors point at usage of static_assert()s. In the case of
kernel/kcsan/encoding.h, new static_assert()s had been introduced which
used expressions that appear to cause genksyms to not even be able to
recover from the syntax error gracefully (as it appears was the case
previously).

Therefore, make genksyms ignore all _Static_assert() and the contained
expression. With the fix, usage of _Static_assert() no longer cause
"syntax error" all over the kernel, and the above modpost warnings for
KCSAN are gone, too.

b9ed847b5a modpost: turn static exports into error
Using EXPORT_SYMBOL*() on static functions is fundamentally wrong.
Modpost currently reports that as a warning, but clearly this is not a
pattern we should allow, and all in-tree occurences should have been
fixed by now. So, promote the warn() message to error() to make sure
this never happens again.

0fd3fbadd9 modpost: refactor error handling and clarify error/fatal difference
We have 3 log functions. fatal() is special because it lets modpost bail
out immediately. The difference between warn() and error() is the only
prefix parts ("WARNING:" vs "ERROR:").

In my understanding, the expected handling of error() is to propagate
the return code of the function to the exit code of modpost, as
check_exports() etc. already does. This is a good manner in general
because we should display as many error messages as possible in a
single run of modpost.

What is annoying about fatal() is that it kills modpost at the first
error. People would need to run Kbuild again and again until they fix
all errors.

But, unfortunately, people tend to do:
"This case should not be allowed. Let's replace warn() with fatal()."

One of the reasons is probably it is tedious to manually hoist the error
code to the main() function.

This commit refactors error() so any single call for it automatically
makes modpost return the error code.

I also added comments in modpost.h for warn(), error(), and fatal().

Please use fatal() only when you have a strong reason to do so.
For example:

  - Memory shortage (i.e. malloc() etc. has failed)
  - The ELF file is broken, and there is no point to continue parsing
  - Something really odd has happened

For general coding errors, please use error().

bc72d723ec modpost: rename merror() to error()
The log function names, warn(), merror(), fatal() are inconsistent.

Commit 2a11665945 ("kbuild: distinguish between errors and warnings
in modpost") intentionally chose merror() to avoid the conflict with
the library function error(). See man page of error(3).

But, we are already causing the conflict with warn() because it is also
a library function. See man page of warn(3). err() would be a problem
for the same reason.

The common technique to work around name conflicts is to use macros.
For example:

    /* in a header */
    #define error(fmt, ...)  __error(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
    #define warn(fmt, ...)   __warn(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)

    /* function definition */
    void __error(const char *fmt, ...)
    {
            <our implementation>
    }

    void __warn(const char *fmt, ...)
    {
            <our implementation>
    }

In this way, we can implement our own warn() and error(), still we can
include <error.h> and <err.h> with no problem.

And, commit 93c95e526a ("modpost: rework and consolidate logging
interface") already did that.

Since the log functions are all macros, we can use error() without
causing "conflicting types" errors.

d8a7f62b6e ubsan: remove redundant -Wno-maybe-uninitialized
Patch series "Clean up UBSAN Makefile", v2.

This series attempts to address the issues seen with UBSAN's object-size
sanitizer causing problems under GCC.  In the process, the Kconfig and
Makefile are refactored to do all the cc-option calls in the Kconfig.
Additionally start to detangle -Wno-maybe-uninitialized, disable
UBSAN_TRAP under COMPILE_TEST for wider build coverage, and expand the
libusan tests.

This patch (of 7):

In commit 78a5255ffb ("Stop the ad-hoc games with
-Wno-maybe-initialized") -Wmaybe-uninitialized was disabled globally, so
keeping the disabling logic here too doesn't make sense.

7da07c31b1 checkpatch: fix TYPO_SPELLING check for words with apostrophe
checkpatch reports a false TYPO_SPELLING warning for some words containing
an apostrophe when run with --codespell option.

A false positive is "doesn't".  Occurrence of the word causes checkpatch
to emit the following warning:

"WARNING: 'doesn'' may be misspelled - perhaps 'doesn't'?"

Modify the regex pattern to be more in line with the codespell default
word matching regex.  This fixes the word capture and avoids the false
warning.

In addition, highlight the misspelled word location by adding a caret
below the word.

  CHECK: Assignment operator '=' should be on the previous line
  +	struct netvsc_device *nvdev
  +		= container_of(w, struct netvsc_device, subchan_work);

line and removing from the current line, if both the lines are additions
(ie start with '+')

03f4935135 checkpatch: fix unescaped left brace
There is an unescaped left brace in a regex in OPEN_BRACE check.  This
throws a runtime error when checkpatch is run with --fix flag and the
OPEN_BRACE check is executed.

Fix it by escaping the left brace.
