There are a few different places where pahole's version is turned into a
three digit form with the exact same command. Move this command into
scripts/pahole-version.sh to reduce the amount of duplication across the
tree.
Create CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION so the version code can be used in Kconfig
to enable and disable configuration options based on the pahole version,
which is already done in a couple of places.

Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"The biggest change here is in-kernel support for module decompression.
This change is being made to help support LSMs like LoadPin as
otherwise it loses link between the source of kernel module on the
disk and binary blob that is being loaded into the kernel.
kmod decompression is still done by userspace even with this is done,
both because there are no measurable gains in not doing so and as it
adds a secondary extra check for validating the module before loading
it into the kernel.
The rest of the changes are minor, the only other change worth
mentionin there is Jessica Yu is now bowing out of maintenance of
modules as she's taking a break from work.
While there were other changes posted for modules, those have not yet
received much review of testing so I'm not yet comfortable in merging
any of those changes yet."

Current scheme of having userspace decompress kernel modules before
loading them into the kernel runs afoul of LoadPin security policy, as
it loses link between the source of kernel module on the disk and binary
blob that is being loaded into the kernel. To solve this issue let's
implement decompression in kernel, so that we can pass a file descriptor
of compressed module file into finit_module() which will keep LoadPin
happy.
To let userspace know what compression/decompression scheme kernel
supports it will create /sys/module/compression attribute. kmod can read
this attribute and decide if it can pass compressed file to
finit_module(). New MODULE_INIT_COMPRESSED_DATA flag indicates that the
kernel should attempt to decompress the data read from file descriptor
prior to trying load the module.
To simplify things kernel will only implement single decompression
method matching compression method selected when generating modules.
This patch implements gzip and xz; more can be added later,

The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.
Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.
Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):
CONFIG_X="foo bar"
Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.
There are some patterns:
[1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
[2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
[3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
[4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))
These are not only ugly, but also fragile.
[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
CONFIG_X=" foo bar "
[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"
[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.
Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.
This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.
These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

The boot-time detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() has a bug on
some 32-bit arm builds, and Thomas Gleixner suggested that setting
CONFIG_HAVE_FUTEX_CMPXCHG would avoid the problem, as it is always present
anyway.
Looking into which other architectures could do the same showed that almost
all architectures have it, the exceptions being:
- some old 32-bit MIPS uniprocessor cores without ll/sc
- one xtensa variant with no SMP
- 32-bit SPARC when built for SMP
Fix MIPS And Xtensa by rearranging the generic code to let it be used
as a fallback.
For SPARC, the SMP definition just ends up turning off futex anyway, so
this can be done at Kconfig time instead. Note that sparc32 glibc requires
the CASA instruction for its mutexes anyway, which is only available when
running on SPARCv9 or LEON CPUs, but needs to be implemented in the sparc32
kernel for those.

Introduce GUEST_PERF_EVENTS and require architectures to select it to
allow registering and using guest callbacks in perf. This will hopefully
make it more difficult for new architectures to add useless "support" for
guest callbacks, e.g. via copy+paste.
Stubbing out the helpers has the happy bonus of avoiding a load of
perf_guest_cbs when GUEST_PERF_EVENTS=n on arm64/x86.

The compiler option is under configuration CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH,

Special thanks to Nathan Chancellor who fixed the Clang bug[1][2]. This
bugfix only appears in Clang 14.0.0, so older versions still contain
the bug and -Wimplicit-fallthrough won't be enabled for them, for now.
This concludes a long journey and now we are finally getting rid
of the unintentional fallthrough bug-class in the kernel, entirely. :)

Memory allocators may disable interrupts or preemption as part of the
allocation and freeing process. For PREEMPT_RT it is important that
these sections remain deterministic and short and therefore don't depend
on the size of the memory to allocate/ free or the inner state of the
algorithm.
Until v3.12-RT the SLAB allocator was an option but involved several
changes to meet all the requirements. The SLUB design fits better with
PREEMPT_RT model and so the SLAB patches were dropped in the 3.12-RT
patchset. Comparing the two allocator, SLUB outperformed SLAB in both
throughput (time needed to allocate and free memory) and the maximal
latency of the system measured with cyclictest during hackbench.
SLOB was never evaluated since it was unlikely that it preforms better
than SLAB. During a quick test, the kernel crashed with SLOB enabled
during boot.
Disable SLAB and SLOB on PREEMPT_RT.

Commit c597bfddc9 ("sched: Provide Kconfig support for default dynamic
preempt mode") changed the selectable config names for the preemption
model. This means a config file must now select
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BEHAVIOUR=y
rather than
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
to get a preemptible kernel. This means all arch config files would need to
be updated - right now they'll all end up with the default
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE_BEHAVIOUR.
Rather than touch a good hundred of config files, restore usage of
CONFIG_PREEMPT{_NONE, _VOLUNTARY}. Make them configure:
o The build-time preemption model when !PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
o The default boot-time preemption model when PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
Add siblings of those configs with the _BUILD suffix to unconditionally
designate the build-time preemption model (PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is built with
the "highest" preemption model it supports, aka PREEMPT). Downstream
configs should by now all be depending / selected by CONFIG_PREEMPTION
rather than CONFIG_PREEMPT, so only a few sites need patching up.

The prior message is confusing users, which is the exact opposite of the
goal. If the message is being seen, one of the following situations is
happening:
1. the param is misspelled
2. the param is not valid due to the kernel configuration
3. the param is intended for init but isn't after the '--'
delineator on the command line
To make that more clear to the user, explicitly mention "kernel command
line" and also note that the params are still passed to user space to
avoid causing any alarm over params intended for init.

core_kernel_text() considers that until system_state in at least
SYSTEM_RUNNING, init memory is valid.
But init memory is freed a few lines before setting SYSTEM_RUNNING, so
we have a small period of time when core_kernel_text() is wrong.
Create an intermediate system state called SYSTEM_FREEING_INIT that is
set before starting freeing init memory, and use it in
core_kernel_text() to report init memory invalid earlier.

TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE:
There are potential non-deterministic delays to an RT thread if a
critical memory region is not THP-aligned and a non-RT buffer is
located in the same hugepage-aligned region. It's also possible for an
unrelated thread to migrate pages belonging to an RT task incurring
unexpected page faults due to memory defragmentation even if
khugepaged is disabled.
Regular HUGEPAGEs are not affected by this can be used.
NUMA_BALANCING:
There is a non-deterministic delay to mark PTEs PROT_NONE to gather
NUMA fault samples, increased page faults of regions even if mlocked
and non-deterministic delays when migrating pages.

Except for the features passed to blk_queue_required_elevator_features,
elevator.h is only needed internally to the block layer. Move the
ELEVATOR_F_* definitions to blkdev.h, and the move elevator.h to
block/, dropping all the spurious includes outside of that.

split_fs_names() currently takes comma separate list of filesystems
and converts it into individual filesystem strings. Pleaces these
strings in the input buffer passed by caller and returns number of
strings.
If caller manages to pass input string bigger than buffer, then we
can write beyond the buffer. Or if string just fits buffer, we will
still write beyond the buffer as we append a '\0' byte at the end.
Pass size of input buffer to split_fs_names() and put enough checks
in place so such buffer overrun possibilities do not occur.
This patch does few things.
- Add a parameter "size" to split_fs_names(). This specifies size
of input buffer.
- Use strlcpy() (instead of strcpy()) so that we can't go beyond
buffer size. If input string "names" is larger than passed in
buffer, input string will be truncated to fit in buffer.
- Stop appending extra '\0' character at the end and avoid one
possibility of going beyond the input buffer size.
- Do not use extra loop to count number of strings.
- Previously if one passed "rootfstype=foo,,bar", split_fs_names()
will return only 1 string "foo" (and "bar" will be truncated
due to extra ,). After this patch, now split_fs_names() will
return 3 strings ("foo", zero-sized-string, and "bar").
Callers of split_fs_names() have been modified to check for
zero sized string and skip to next one.

The boot-time allocation interface for memblock is a mess, with
'memblock_alloc()' returning a virtual pointer, but then you are
supposed to free it with 'memblock_free()' that takes a _physical_
address.
Not only is that all kinds of strange and illogical, but it actually
causes bugs, when people then use it like a normal allocation function,
and it fails spectacularly on a NULL pointer:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210912140820.GD25450@xsang-OptiPlex-9020/
or just random memory corruption if the debug checks don't catch it:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/61ab2d0c-3313-aaab-514c-e15b7aa054a0@suse.cz/
I really don't want to apply patches that treat the symptoms, when the
fundamental cause is this horribly confusing interface.
I started out looking at just automating a sane replacement sequence,
but because of this mix or virtual and physical addresses, and because
people have used the "__pa()" macro that can take either a regular
kernel pointer, or just the raw "unsigned long" address, it's all quite
messy.
So this just introduces a new saner interface for freeing a virtual
address that was allocated using 'memblock_alloc()', and that was kept
as a regular kernel pointer. And then it converts a couple of users
that are obvious and easy to test, including the 'xbc_nodes' case in
lib/bootconfig.c that caused problems.

Currently, usermodehelper is enabled right before PID1 starts going
through the initcalls. However, any call of a usermodehelper from a
pure_, core_, postcore_, arch_, subsys_ or fs_ initcall is futile, as
there is no filesystem contents yet.
Up until commit e7cb072eb9 ("init/initramfs.c: do unpacking
asynchronously"), such calls, whether via some request_module(), a
legacy uevent "/sbin/hotplug" notification or something else, would
just fail silently with (presumably) -ENOENT from
kernel_execve(). However, that commit introduced the
wait_for_initramfs() synchronization hook which must be called from
the usermodehelper exec path right before the kernel_execve, in order
that request_module() et al done from *after* rootfs_initcall()
time (i.e. device_ and late_ initcalls) would continue to find a
populated initramfs as they used to.
Any call of wait_for_initramfs() done before the unpacking has been
scheduled (i.e. before rootfs_initcall time) must just return
immediately [and let the caller find an empty file system] in order
not to deadlock the machine. I mistakenly thought, and my limited
testing confirmed, that there were no such calls, so I added a
pr_warn_once() in wait_for_initramfs(). It turns out that one can
indeed hit request_module() as well as kobject_uevent_env() during
those early init calls, leading to a user-visible warning in the
kernel log emitted consistently for certain configurations.
We could just remove the pr_warn_once(), but I think it's better to
postpone enabling the usermodehelper framework until there is at least
some chance of finding the executable. That is also a little more
efficient in that a lot of work done in umh.c will be elided. However,
it does change the error seen by those early callers from -ENOENT to
-EBUSY, so there is a risk of a regression if any caller care about
the exact error value.

The cross-product of the kernel's supported toolchains, architectures,
and configuration options is large. So large, that it's generally
accepted to be infeasible to enumerate and build+test them all
(many compile-testers rely on randomly generated configs).
Without the possibility to enumerate all possible combinations of
toolchains, architectures, and configuration options, it is inevitable
that compiler warnings in this space exist.
With -Werror, this means that an innumerable set of kernels are now
broken, yet had been perfectly usable before (confused compilers, code
with warnings unused, or luck).
Distributors will necessarily pick a point in the toolchain X arch X
config space, and if unlucky, will have a broken build. Granted, those
will likely disable CONFIG_WERROR and move on.
The kernel's default configuration is unlikely to be suitable for all
users, but it's inappropriate to force many users to set CONFIG_WERROR=n.
This also holds for CI systems which are focused on runtime testing,
where the odd warning in some subsystem will disrupt testing of the rest
of the kernel. Many of those runtime-focused CI systems run tests or
fuzz the kernel using runtime debugging tools. Runtime testing of
different subsystems can proceed in parallel, and potentially uncover
serious bugs; halting runtime testing of the entire kernel because of
the odd warning (now error) in a subsystem or driver is simply
inappropriate.
Therefore, runtime-focused CI systems will likely choose CONFIG_WERROR=n
as well.
The appropriate usecase for -Werror is therefore compile-test focused
builds (often done by developers or CI systems).
Reflect this in the Kconfig option by making the default value of WERROR
match COMPILE_TEST.

... but make it a config option so that broken environments can disable
it when required.
We really should always have a clean build, and will disable specific
over-eager warnings as required, if we can't fix them. But while I
fairly religiously enforce that in my own tree, it doesn't get enforced
by various build robots that don't necessarily report warnings.
So this just makes '-Werror' a default compiler flag, but allows people
to disable it for their configuration if they have some particular
issues.
Occasionally, new compiler versions end up enabling new warnings, and it
can take a while before we have them fixed (or the warnings disabled if
that is what it takes), so the config option allows for that situation.
Hopefully this will mean that I get fewer pull requests that have new
warnings that were not noticed by various automation we have in place.
Knock wood.
