2016-05-05modpost: fix module autoloading for OF devices with generic compatible propertyPhilipp Zabel
Since the wildcard at the end of OF module aliases is gone, autoloading of modules that don't match a device's last (most generic) compatible value fails. For example the CODA960 VPU on i.MX6Q has the SoC specific compatible "fsl,imx6q-vpu" and the generic compatible "cnm,coda960". Since the driver currently only works with knowledge about the SoC specific integration, it doesn't list "cnm,cod960" in the module device table. This results in the device compatible "of:NvpuT<NULL>Cfsl,imx6q-vpuCcnm,coda960" not matching the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu" anymore, whereas before commit 2f632369ab79 ("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") it matched the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu*". This patch adds two module aliases for each compatible, one without the wildcard and one with "C*" appended. $ modinfo coda | grep imx6q alias: of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpuC* alias: of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu Fixes: 2f632369ab79 ("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1462203339-15340-1-git-send-email-p.zabel@pengutronix.de Signed-off-by: Philipp Zabel <p.zabel@pengutronix.de> Cc: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com> Cc: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Cc: Sjoerd Simons <sjoerd.simons@collabora.co.uk> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [4.5+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2016-02-29objtool: Mark non-standard object files and directoriesJosh Poimboeuf
Code which runs outside the kernel's normal mode of operation often does unusual things which can cause a static analysis tool like objtool to emit false positive warnings: - boot image - vdso image - relocation - realmode - efi - head - purgatory - modpost Set OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD for their related files and directories, which will tell objtool to skip checking them. It's ok to skip them because they don't affect runtime stack traces. Also skip the following code which does the right thing with respect to frame pointers, but is too "special" to be validated by a tool: - entry - mcount Also skip the test_nx module because it modifies its exception handling table at runtime, which objtool can't understand. Fortunately it's just a test module so it doesn't matter much. Currently objtool is the only user of OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD, but it might eventually be useful for other tools.

2016-01-21powerpc: Simplify module TOC handlingAlan Modra
PowerPC64 uses the symbol .TOC. much as other targets use _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. It identifies the value of the GOT pointer (or in powerpc parlance, the TOC pointer). Global offset tables are generally local to an executable or shared library, or in the kernel, module. Thus it does not make sense for a module to resolve a relocation against .TOC. to the kernel's .TOC. value. A module has its own .TOC., and indeed the powerpc64 module relocation processing ignores the kernel value of .TOC. and instead calculates a module-local value. This patch removes code involved in exporting the kernel .TOC., tweaks modpost to ignore an undefined .TOC., and the module loader to twiddle the section symbol so that .TOC. isn't seen as undefined. Note that if the kernel was compiled with -msingle-pic-base then ELFv2 would not have function global entry code setting up r2. In that case the module call stubs would need to be modified to set up r2 using the kernel .TOC. value, requiring some of this code to be reinstated. mpe: Furthermore a change in binutils master (not yet released) causes the current way we handle the TOC to no longer work when building with MODVERSIONS=y and RELOCATABLE=n. The symptom is that modules can not be loaded due to there being no version found for TOC.

2016-01-14modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliasesJavier Martinez Canillas
Commit ac551828993e ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard") removed the wildcard at the end of the I2C module aliases because I2C devices have no IDs so the aliases are just arbitrary device names. This is also true for OF modaliases since a compatible string is used to define a specific IP hardware block. So the modalias should match a specific compatible string and not attempt to match a compatible string whose name matches the beginning of another one. For example, the following driver module: $ modinfo cros_ec_keyb | grep alias alias: platform:cros-ec-keyb alias: of:N*T*Cgoogle,cros-ec-keyb* will be tried to be loaded for an alias of:N*T*Cgoogle,cros-ec-keyb-v2 but there could be a different driver that supports the device for that compatible string so it's better to remove the trailing wildcard for OF. Also, remove the word "always" from the add_wildcard() function comment since that was carried from the time where a wildcard was always added at the end of the module alias for all the devices.

2015-08-08modpost: abort if a module symbol is too longTakashi Iwai
Module symbols have a limited length, but currently the build system allows the build finishing even if the driver code contains a too long symbol name, which eventually overflows the modversion_info[] item. The compiler may catch at compiling *.mod.c like CC xxx.mod.o xxx.mod.c:18:16: warning: initializer-string for array of chars is too long but it's merely a warning. This patch adds the check of the symbol length in modpost and stops the build properly. Currently MODULE_NAME_LEN is defined in modpost.c instead of referring to the definition in kernel header because including linux/module.h is messy and we must cover cross-compilation.

2015-07-07ACPI / scan: Add support for ACPI _CLS device matchingSuthikulpanit, Suravee
Device drivers typically use ACPI _HIDs/_CIDs listed in struct device_driver acpi_match_table to match devices. However, for generic drivers, we do not want to list _HID for all supported devices. Also, certain classes of devices do not have _CID (e.g. SATA, USB). Instead, we can leverage ACPI _CLS, which specifies PCI-defined class code (i.e. base-class, subclass and programming interface). This patch adds support for matching ACPI devices using the _CLS method. To support loadable module, current design uses _HID or _CID to match device's modalias. With the new way of matching with _CLS this would requires modification to the current ACPI modalias key to include _CLS. This patch appends PCI-defined class-code to the existing ACPI modalias as following. acpi:<HID>:<CID1>:<CID2>:..:<CIDn>:<bbsspp>: E.g: # cat /sys/devices/platform/AMDI0600:00/modalias acpi:AMDI0600:010601: where bb is th base-class code, ss is te sub-class code, and pp is the programming interface code Since there would not be _HID/_CID in the ACPI matching table of the driver, this patch adds a field to acpi_device_id to specify the matching _CLS. static const struct acpi_device_id ahci_acpi_match[] = { { ACPI_DEVICE_CLASS(PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_SATA_AHCI, 0xffffff) }, {}, }; In this case, the corresponded entry in modules.alias file would be: alias acpi*:010601:* ahci_platform Acked-by: Mika Westerberg <mika.westerberg@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Hanjun Guo <hanjun.guo@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Suravee Suthikulpanit <Suravee.Suthikulpanit@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2015-05-13usb: add bus type for USB ULPIHeikki Krogerus
UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) is a commonly used PHY interface for USB 2.0. The ULPI specification describes a standard set of registers which the vendors can extend for their specific needs. ULPI PHYs provide often functions such as charger detection and ADP sensing and probing. There are two major issues that the bus type is meant to tackle: Firstly, ULPI registers are accessed from the controller. The bus provides convenient method for the controller drivers to share that access with the actual PHY drivers. Secondly, there are already platforms that assume ULPI PHYs are runtime detected, such as many Intel Baytrail based platforms. They do not provide any kind of hardware description for the ULPI PHYs like separate ACPI device object that could be used to enumerate a device from.

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

2015-04-13modpost: handle relocations mismatch in __ex_table.Quentin Casasnovas
__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.

2015-03-31MIPS: Add CDMM bus supportJames Hogan
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.

2014-10-02aarch64: filter $x from kallsymsKyle McMartin
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. initcall_debug improves: dmesg_before.txt: initcall $x+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 26331 usecs dmesg_after.txt: initcall init_sg+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 15461 usecs Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com> Acked-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
