15ce2658dd Quentin opened a can of worms by adding extable entry checking to modpost,
but most architectures seem fixed now.  Thanks to all involved.
 
 Last minute rebase because I noticed a "[PATCH]" had snuck into a commit
 message somehow.
 
 Cheers,
 Rusty.

4a3893d069 modpost: don't emit section mismatch warnings for compiler optimizations
Currently an allyesconfig build [gcc-4.9.1] can generate the following:

   WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x3864): Section mismatch in
   reference from the function cpumask_empty.constprop.3() to the
   variable .init.data:nmi_ipi_mask

which comes from the cpumask_empty usage in arch/x86/kernel/nmi_selftest.c.

Normally we would not see a symbol entry for cpumask_empty since it is:

	static inline bool cpumask_empty(const struct cpumask *srcp)

however in this case, the variant of the symbol gets emitted when GCC does
constant propagation optimization.

Fix things up so that any locally optimized constprop variants don't warn
when accessing variables that live in the __init sections.

09c20c032b modpost: expand pattern matching to support substring matches
Currently the match() function supports a leading * to match any
prefix and a trailing * to match any suffix.  However there currently
is not a combination of both that can be used to target matches of
whole families of functions that share a common substring.

Here we expand the *foo and foo* match to also support *foo* with
the goal of targeting compiler generated symbol names that contain
strings like ".constprop." and ".isra."

e84048aa17 modpost: fix extable entry size calculation.
As Guenter pointed out, we were never really calculating the extable entry
size because the pointer arithmetic was simply wrong.  We want to check
we're handling the second relocation in __ex_table to infer an entry size,
but we were using (void*) pointers instead of Elf_Rel[a]* ones.

This fixes the problem by moving that check in the caller (since we can
deal with different types of relocations) and add is_second_extable_reloc()
to make the whole thing more readable.

d3df4de7eb modpost: fix inverted logic in is_extable_fault_address().
As Guenter pointed out, we want to assert that extable_entry_size has been
discovered and not the other way around.  Moreover, this sanity check is
only valid when we're not dealing with the first relocation in __ex_table,
since we have not discovered the extable entry size at that point.

This was leading to a divide-by-zero on some architectures and make the
build fail.

52dc0595d5 modpost: handle relocations mismatch in __ex_table.
__ex_table is a simple table section where each entry is a pair of
addresses - the first address is an address which can fault in kernel
space, and the second address points to where the kernel should jump to
when handling that fault.  This is how copy_from_user() does not crash the
kernel if userspace gives a borked pointer for example.

If one of these addresses point to a non-executable section, something is
seriously wrong since it either means the kernel will never fault from
there or it will not be able to jump to there.  As both cases are serious
enough, we simply error out in these cases so the build fails and the
developper has to fix the issue.

In case the section is executable, but it isn't referenced in our list of
authorized sections to point to from __ex_table, we just dump a warning
giving more information about it.  We do this in case the new section is
executable but isn't supposed to be executed by the kernel.  This happened
with .altinstr_replacement, which is executable but is only used to copy
instructions from - we should never have our instruction pointer pointing
in .altinstr_replacement.  Admitedly, a proper fix in that case would be to
just set .altinstr_replacement NX, but we need to warn about future cases
like this.

8286ae0330 MIPS: Add CDMM bus support
Add MIPS Common Device Memory Map (CDMM) support in the form of a bus in
the standard Linux device model. Each device attached via CDMM is
discoverable via an 8-bit type identifier and may contain a number of
blocks of memory mapped registers in the CDMM region. IRQs are expected
to be handled separately.

Due to the per-cpu (per-VPE for MT cores) nature of the CDMM devices,
all the driver callbacks take place from workqueues which are run on the
right CPU for the device in question, so that the driver doesn't need to
be as concerned about which CPU it is running on. Callbacks also exist
for when CPUs are taken offline, so that any per-CPU resources used by
the driver can be disabled so they don't get forcefully migrated. CDMM
devices are created as children of the CPU device they are attached to.

Any existing CDMM configuration by the bootloader will be inherited,
however platforms wishing to enable CDMM should implement the weak
mips_cdmm_phys_base() function (see asm/cdmm.h) so that the bus driver
knows where it should put the CDMM region in the physical address space
if the bootloader hasn't already enabled it.

A mips_cdmm_early_probe() function is also provided to allow early boot
or particularly low level code to set up the CDMM region and probe for a
specific device type, for example early console or KGDB IO drivers for
the EJTAG Fast Debug Channel (FDC) CDMM device.

6c34f1f542 aarch64: filter $x from kallsyms
Similar to ARM, AArch64 is generating $x and $d syms... which isn't
terribly helpful when looking at %pF output and the like. Filter those
out in kallsyms, modpost and when looking at module symbols.

Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it
to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly
complicated.

4251c2a670 Most of this is cleaning up various driver sysfs permissions so we can
re-add the perm check (we unified the module param and sysfs checks, but
 the module ones were stronger so we weakened them temporarily).
 
 Param parsing gets documented, and also "--" now forces args to be
 handed to init (and ignored by the kernel).
 
 Module NX/RO protections get tightened: we now set them before calling
 parse_args().

21bdd17b21 module: allow multiple calls to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() per module
Commit 78551277e4df5: "Input: i8042 - add PNP modaliases" had a bug, where the
second call to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() overrode the first resulting in not all
the modaliases being exposed.

This fixes the problem by including the name of the device_id table in the
__mod_*_device_table alias, allowing us to export several device_id tables
per module.

2b9c1f0327 x86: align x86 arch with generic CPU modalias handling
The x86 CPU feature modalias handling existed before it was reimplemented
generically. This patch aligns the x86 handling so that it
(a) reuses some more code that is now generic;
(b) uses the generic format for the modalias module metadata entry, i.e., it
    now uses 'cpu:type:x86,venVVVVfamFFFFmodMMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' instead of
    the 'x86cpu:vendor:VVVV👪FFFF:model:MMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' that was
    used before.

67bad2fdb7 cpu: add generic support for CPU feature based module autoloading
This patch adds support for advertising optional CPU features over udev
using the modalias, and for declaring compatibility with/dependency upon
such a feature in a module.

The mapping between feature numbers and actual features should be provided
by the architecture in a file called <asm/cpufeature.h> which exports the
following functions/macros:
- cpu_feature(FEAT), a preprocessor macro that maps token FEAT to a
  numeric index;
- bool cpu_have_feature(n), returning whether this CPU has support for
  feature #n;
- MAX_CPU_FEATURES, an upper bound for 'n' in the previous function.

The feature can then be enabled by setting CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE
for the architecture.

For instance, a module that registers its module init function using

  module_cpu_feature_match(FEAT_X, module_init_function)

will be probed automatically when the CPU's support for the 'FEAT_X'
feature is advertised over udev, and will only allow the module to be
loaded by hand if the 'FEAT_X' feature is supported.

03b56329f9 Modpost: fixed USB alias generation for ranges including 0x9 and 0xA
Commit afe2dab4f6 ("USB: add hex/bcd detection to usb modalias generation")
changed the routine that generates alias ranges. Before that change, only
digits 0-9 were supported; the commit tried to fix the case when the range
includes higher values than 0x9.

Unfortunately, the commit didn't fix the case when the range includes both
0x9 and 0xA, meaning that the final range must look like [x-9A-y] where
x <= 0x9 and y >= 0xA -- instead the [x-9A-x] range was produced.

Modprobe doesn't complain as it sees no difference between no-match and
bad-pattern results of fnmatch().

Fixing this simple bug to fix the aliases.
Also changing the hardcoded beginning of the range to uppercase as all the
other letters are also uppercase in the device version numbers.

Fortunately, this affects only the dvb-usb-dib0700 module, AFAIK.

Andi's change in e0f244c63f ("asmlinkage, module: Make ksymtab and

modpost creates an entry when it sees the CRC, then when it sees the
actual symbol, it complains that it's seen it before.  The preloaded
flag already exists for the equivalent case where we loaded from
Module.symvers, so use that.

e0f244c63f asmlinkage, module: Make ksymtab and kcrctab symbols and __this_module __visible
Make the ksymtab symbols for EXPORT_SYMBOL visible.
This prevents the LTO compiler from adding a .NUMBER prefix,
which avoids various problems in later export processing.

eed380f3f5 modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build fails
Commit ea4054a23 (modpost: handle huge numbers of modules) added
support for building a large number of modules.

Unfortunately, the commit changed the semantics of the makefile: Instead of
passing only existing object files to modpost, make now passes all expected
object files. If make was started with option -i, this results in a modpost
error if a single file failed to build.

Example with the current btrfs build falure on m68k:

fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory
make[1]: [__modpost] Error 1 (ignored)

This error is followed by lots of errors such as:

m68k-linux-gcc: error: arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.c: No such file or directory
m68k-linux-gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
make[1]: [arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.o] Error 1 (ignored)

This doesn't matter much for normal builds, but it is annoying for builds
started with "make -i" due to the large number of secondary errors.
Those errors unnececessarily clog any error log and make it difficult
to find the real errors in the build.

Fix the problem by adding a new parameter '-n' to modpost. If this parameter
is specified, modpost reports but ignores missing object files.

With this patch, error output from above problem is (with make -i):

m68k-linux-ld: cannot find fs/btrfs/ioctl.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: [fs/btrfs/btrfs.o] Error 1 (ignored)
...
fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory (ignored)

4d10c223ba scripts/mod/modpost.c: permit '.cranges' secton for sh64 architecture.
Need permit '.cranges' section for sh64 architecture, or modpost will
report warning:

    LD      init/built-in.o
  WARNING: init/built-in.o (.cranges): unexpected non-allocatable section.
  Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
  Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
  section definitions for use in .S files.
