Rob Herring 37c8a5fafa kbuild: consolidate Devicetree dtb build rules
There is nothing arch specific about building dtb files other than their
location under /arch/*/boot/dts/. Keeping each arch aligned is a pain.
The dependencies and supported targets are all slightly different.
Also, a cross-compiler for each arch is needed, but really the host
compiler preprocessor is perfectly fine for building dtbs. Move the
build rules to a common location and remove the arch specific ones. This
is done in a single step to avoid warnings about overriding rules.

The build dependencies had been a mixture of 'scripts' and/or 'prepare'.
These pull in several dependencies some of which need a target compiler
(specifically devicetable-offsets.h) and aren't needed to build dtbs.
All that is really needed is dtc, so adjust the dependencies to only be
dtc.

This change enables support 'dtbs_install' on some arches which were
missing the target.

Miguel Ojeda 23066c3f4e Compiler Attributes: enable -Wstringop-truncation on W=1 (gcc >= 8)
Commit 217c3e0196 ("disable stringop truncation warnings for now")
disabled -Wstringop-truncation since it was too noisy.

Having __nonstring available allows us to let GCC know that a string
is not meant to be NUL-terminated, which helps suppressing some
-Wstringop-truncation warnings.

Note that using __nonstring actually triggers other warnings
(-Wstringop-overflow, which is on by default) which may be real
problems. Therefore, cleaning up -Wstringop-truncation warnings
also buys us the ability to uncover further potential problems.

To encourage the use of __nonstring, we put the warning back at W=1.
In the future, if we end up with a fairly warning-free tree,
we might want to enable it by default.

Rob Herring f858927fd6 scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version v1.4.7-14-gc86da84d30e4
Major changes are I2C and SPI bus checks, YAML output format (for
future validation), some new libfdt functions, and more libfdt
validation of dtbs.

The YAML addition adds an optional dependency on libyaml. pkg-config is
used to test for it and pkg-config became a kconfig dependency in 4.18.

Henrik Austad a7ddcea58a Drop all 00-INDEX files from Documentation/
This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.

The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)

A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.

A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.

List of outdated 00-INDEX:
Documentation: (4/10)
Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
Documentation/timers: (1/0)
Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
Documentation/locking: (0/1)
Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
Documentation/power: (1/1)
Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
Documentation/arm: (1/0)
Documentation/x86: (0/9)
Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1)
Documentation/scsi: (4/4)
Documentation/filesystems: (2/9)
Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2)
Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2)
Documentation/kbuild: (0/4)
Documentation/spi: (1/0)
Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0)
Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
Documentation/fb: (0/1)
Documentation/block: (0/1)
Documentation/networking: (6/37)
Documentation/vm: (1/3)

Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
00-INDEX).

I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
if we just want to delete them anyway.

As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
see where the discussion is going.

Randy Dunlap f0b0d88a82 kbuild: modules_install: warn when missing System.map file
If there is no System.map file for "make modules_install",
scripts/depmod.sh will silently exit with success, having done
nothing.  Since this is an unexpected situation, change it to
report a Warning for the missing file.  The behavior is not
changed except for the Warning message.

The (previous) silent success and new Warning can be reproduced
by:
$ make mrproper; make defconfig
$ make modules; make modules_install

and since System.map is produced by "make vmlinux", the steps
above omit producing the System.map file.

Alexander Popov 10e9ae9fab gcc-plugins: Add STACKLEAK plugin for tracking the kernel stack
The STACKLEAK feature erases the kernel stack before returning from
syscalls. That reduces the information which kernel stack leak bugs can
reveal and blocks some uninitialized stack variable attacks.

This commit introduces the STACKLEAK gcc plugin. It is needed for
tracking the lowest border of the kernel stack, which is important
for the code erasing the used part of the kernel stack at the end
of syscalls (comes in a separate commit).

The STACKLEAK feature is ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at:
  https://grsecurity.net/
  https://pax.grsecurity.net/

This code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last
public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on our understanding of the code.
Changes or omissions from the original code are ours and don't reflect
the original grsecurity/PaX code.

Alexander Popov afaef01c00 x86/entry: Add STACKLEAK erasing the kernel stack at the end of syscalls
The STACKLEAK feature (initially developed by PaX Team) has the following
benefits:

1. Reduces the information that can be revealed through kernel stack leak
   bugs. The idea of erasing the thread stack at the end of syscalls is
   similar to CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING and memzero_explicit() in kernel
   crypto, which all comply with FDP_RIP.2 (Full Residual Information
   Protection) of the Common Criteria standard.

2. Blocks some uninitialized stack variable attacks (e.g. CVE-2017-17712,
   CVE-2010-2963). That kind of bugs should be killed by improving C
   compilers in future, which might take a long time.

This commit introduces the code filling the used part of the kernel
stack with a poison value before returning to userspace. Full
STACKLEAK feature also contains the gcc plugin which comes in a
separate commit.

The STACKLEAK feature is ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at:
  https://grsecurity.net/
  https://pax.grsecurity.net/

This code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last
public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on our understanding of the code.
Changes or omissions from the original code are ours and don't reflect
the original grsecurity/PaX code.

Performance impact:

Hardware: Intel Core i7-4770, 16 GB RAM

Test #1: building the Linux kernel on a single core
        0.91% slowdown

Test #2: hackbench -s 4096 -l 2000 -g 15 -f 25 -P
        4.2% slowdown

So the STACKLEAK description in Kconfig includes: "The tradeoff is the
performance impact: on a single CPU system kernel compilation sees a 1%
slowdown, other systems and workloads may vary and you are advised to
test this feature on your expected workload before deploying it".

When $DEPMOD is not found, only print a warning instead of exiting
with an error message and error status:

Warning: 'make modules_install' requires /sbin/depmod. Please install it.
This is probably in the kmod package.

Change the Error to a Warning because "not all build hosts for cross
compiling Linux are Linux systems and are able to provide a working
port of depmod, especially at the file patch /sbin/depmod."

I.e., "make modules_install" may be used to copy/install the
loadable modules files to a target directory on a build system and
then transferred to an embedded device where /sbin/depmod is run
instead of it being run on the build system.

Masahiro Yamada fd65465b70 kconfig: do not require pkg-config on make {menu,n}config
Meelis Roos reported a {menu,n}config regression:
 "I have libncurses devel package installed in the default system
  location (as do 99%+ on actual developers probably) and in this
  case, pkg-config is useless.  pkg-config is needed only when
  libraries and headers are installed in non-default locations but
  it is bad to require installation of pkg-config on all the machines
  where make menuconfig would be possibly run."

For {menu,n}config, do not use pkg-config if it is not installed.
For {g,x}config, keep checking pkg-config since we really rely on it
for finding the installation paths of the required packages.

Fixes: 4ab3b80159 ("kconfig: check for pkg-config on make {menu,n,g,x}config")

Linus Torvalds 899ba79553 Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Speculation:

   - Make the microcode check more robust

   - Make the L1TF memory limit depend on the internal cache physical
     address space and not on the CPUID advertised physical address
     space, which might be significantly smaller. This avoids disabling
     L1TF on machines which utilize the full physical address space.

   - Fix the GDT mapping for EFI calls on 32bit PTI

   - Fix the MCE nospec implementation to prevent #GP

  Fixes and robustness:

   - Use the proper operand order for LSL in the VDSO

   - Prevent NMI uaccess race against CR3 switching

   - Add a lockdep check to verify that text_mutex is held in
     text_poke() functions

   - Repair the fallout of giving native_restore_fl() a prototype

   - Prevent kernel memory dumps based on usermode RIP

   - Wipe KASAN shadow stack before rewinding the stack to prevent false
     positives

   - Move the AMS GOTO enforcement to the actual build stage to allow
     user API header extraction without a compiler

   - Fix a section mismatch introduced by the on demand VDSO mapping
     change

  Miscellaneous:

   - Trivial typo, GCC quirk removal and CC_SET/OUT() cleanups"
