grab_file() mmaps a file, but it is not so efficient here because
get_next_line() copies every line to the temporary buffer anyway.
read_text_file() and get_line() are simpler. get_line() exploits the
library function strchr().
Going forward, the missing *.symvers or *.cmd is a fatal error.
This should not happen because scripts/Makefile.modpost guards the
-i option files with $(wildcard $(input-symdump)).

One problem of grab_file() is that it cannot distinguish the following
two cases:
- It cannot read the file (the file does not exist, or read permission
is not set)
- It can read the file, but the file size is zero
This is because grab_file() calls mmap(), which requires the mapped
length is greater than 0. Hence, grab_file() fails for both cases.
If an empty header file were included for checksum calculation, the
following warning would be printed:
WARNING: modpost: could not open ...: Invalid argument
An empty file is a valid source file, so it should not fail.
Use read_text_file() instead. It can read a zero-length file.
Then, parse_file() will succeed with doing nothing.
Going forward, the first case (it cannot read the file) is a fatal
error. If the source file from which an object was compiled is missing,
something went wrong.

I do not know how reliably this function works, but it looks dangerous
to me.
strchr(sources, '\n');
... continues searching until it finds '\n' or it reaches the '\0'
terminator. In other words, 'sources' should be a null-terminated
string.
However, grab_file() just mmaps a file, so 'sources' is not terminated
with null byte. If the file does not contain '\n' at all, strchr() will
go beyond the mmap'ed memory.
Use read_text_file(), which loads the file content into a malloc'ed
buffer, appending null byte.
Here we are interested only in the first line of *.mod files. Use
get_line() helper to get the first line.
This also makes missing *.mod file a fatal error.
Commit 4be40e2223 ("kbuild: do not emit src version warning for
non-modules") ignored missing *.mod files.
I do not fully understand what that commit addressed, but commit
91341d4b2c ("kbuild: introduce new option to enhance section mismatch
analysis") introduced partial section checks by using modpost. built-in.o
was parsed by modpost. Even modules had a problem because *.mod files
were created after the modpost check.
Commit b7dca6dd1e ("kbuild: create *.mod with full directory path and
remove MODVERDIR") stopped doing that. Now that modpost is only invoked
after the directory descend, *.mod files should always exist at the
modpost stage.

modpost uses grab_file() to open a file, but it is not suitable for
a text file because the mmap'ed file is not terminated by null byte.
Actually, I see some issues for the use of grab_file().
The new helper, read_text_file() loads the whole file content into a
malloc'ed buffer, and appends a null byte. Then, get_line() reads
each line.
To handle text files, I intend to replace as follows:
grab_file() -> read_text_file()
get_new_line() -> get_line()

If modpost fails to load a symbol dump file, it cannot check unresolved
symbols, hence module dependency will not be added. Nor CRCs can be added.
Currently, external module builds check only $(objtree)/Module.symvers,
but it should check files specified by KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS as well.
Move the warning message from the top Makefile to scripts/Makefile.modpost
and print the warning if any dump file is missing.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
check_exports() does not print warnings about unresolved symbols if
vmlinux is missing because there would be too many.
This situation happens when you do 'make modules' from the clean
tree, or compile external modules against a kernel tree that has
not been completely built.
It is dangerous to not check unresolved symbols because you might be
building useless modules. At least it should be warned.

Currently, the second pass of modpost is always invoked when you run

Use if_changed to invoke it only when it is necessary.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
The full build runs modpost twice, first for vmlinux.o and second for
modules.
The first pass dumps all the vmlinux symbols into Module.symvers, but
the second pass parses vmlinux again instead of reusing the dump file,
presumably because it needs to avoid accumulating stale symbols.
Loading symbol info from a dump file is faster than parsing an ELF object.
Besides, modpost deals with various issues to parse vmlinux in the second
pass.
A solution is to make the first pass dumps symbols into a separate file,
vmlinux.symvers. The second pass reads it, and parses module .o files.
The merged symbol information is dumped into Module.symvers in the same
way as before.
This makes further modpost cleanups possible.
Also, it fixes the problem of 'make vmlinux', which previously overwrote
Module.symvers, throwing away module symbols.
I slightly touched scripts/link-vmlinux.sh so that vmlinux is re-linked
when you cross this commit. Otherwise, vmlinux.symvers would not be
generated.

I want to assign a dedicate option for each of them.

The meaning of sym->kernel is obscure; it is set for in-kernel symbols
loaded from Modules.symvers. This happens only when we are building
external modules, and it is used to determine whether to dump symbols
to $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Modules.symvers
It is clearer to remember whether the symbol or module came from a dump
file or ELF object.
This changes the KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS behavior. Previously, symbols
loaded from KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS are accumulated into the current
$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Modules.symvers
Going forward, they will be only used to check symbol references, but
not dumped into the current $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Modules.symvers. I believe
this makes more sense.
sym->vmlinux will have no user. Remove it too.

The PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS option is unused after commit c3bc8fd637 ("tracing:

Note that this option is hazardous as it stands. It enables TRACE_IRQFLAGS
event on non-preempt configurations without the irqsoff tracer enabled.
TRACE_IRQFLAGS as it stands incurs significant overhead on each IRQ
entry/exit. This is because trace_hardirqs_[on|off] does all the per-cpu
manipulations and NMI checks even if tracing is completely disabled for
some insane reason. For example, netperf running UDP_STREAM on localhost
incurs a 4-6% performance penalty without any tracing if IRQFLAGS is
set. It can be put behind a static brach but even the function entry/exit
costs a little bit.

To fix this we add a completion which is waited on when a test is

When the commit adding ntb_default_port_number() and
ntb_default_peer_port_number() entered the kernel there was no
users of it so it was impossible to tell what the API needed.
When a user finally landed a year later (ntb_pingpong) there were
more NTB topologies were created and no consideration was considered
to how other drivers had changed.
Now that there is a user it can be fixed to provide a sensible default
for the legacy drivers that do not implement ntb_{peer_}port_number().
Seeing ntb_pingpong doesn't check error codes returning EINVAL was also
not sensible.
Patches for ntb_pingpong and ntb_perf follow (which are broken
otherwise) to support hardware that doesn't have port numbers. This is
important not only to not break support with existing drivers but for
the cross link topology which, due to its perfect symmetry, cannot
assign unique port numbers to each side.

Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
"There's some core VFS changes which affect a couple of filesystems:
- Make the inode hash table RCU safe and providing some RCU-safe
accessor functions. The search can then be done without taking the
inode_hash_lock. Care must be taken because the object may be being
deleted and no wait is made.
- Allow iunique() to avoid taking the inode_hash_lock.
- Allow AFS's callback processing to avoid taking the inode_hash_lock
when using the inode table to find an inode to notify.
- Improve Ext4's time updating. Konstantin Khlebnikov said "For now,
I've plugged this issue with try-lock in ext4 lazy time update.
This solution is much better."
Then there's a set of changes to make a number of improvements to the
AFS driver:
- Improve callback (ie. third party change notification) processing
by:
(a) Relying more on the fact we're doing this under RCU and by
using fewer locks. This makes use of the RCU-based inode
searching outlined above.
(b) Moving to keeping volumes in a tree indexed by volume ID
rather than a flat list.
(c) Making the server and volume records logically part of the
cell. This means that a server record now points directly at
the cell and the tree of volumes is there. This removes an N:M
mapping table, simplifying things.
- Improve keeping NAT or firewall channels open for the server
callbacks to reach the client by actively polling the fileserver on
a timed basis, instead of only doing it when we have an operation
to process.
- Improving detection of delayed or lost callbacks by including the
parent directory in the list of file IDs to be queried when doing a
bulk status fetch from lookup. We can then check to see if our copy
of the directory has changed under us without us getting notified.
- Determine aliasing of cells (such as a cell that is pointed to be a
DNS alias). This allows us to avoid having ambiguity due to
apparently different cells using the same volume and file servers.
- Improve the fileserver rotation to do more probing when it detects
that all of the addresses to a server are listed as non-responsive.
It's possible that an address that previously stopped responding
has become responsive again.
Beyond that, lay some foundations for making some calls asynchronous:
- Turn the fileserver cursor struct into a general operation struct
and hang the parameters off of that rather than keeping them in
local variables and hang results off of that rather than the call
struct.
- Implement some general operation handling code and simplify the
callers of operations that affect a volume or a volume component
(such as a file). Most of the operation is now done by core code.
- Operations are supplied with a table of operations to issue
different variants of RPCs and to manage the completion, where all
the required data is held in the operation object, thereby allowing
these to be called from a workqueue.
- Put the standard "if (begin), while(select), call op, end" sequence
into a canned function that just emulates the current behaviour for
now.
There are also some fixes interspersed:
- Don't let the EACCES from ICMP6 mapping reach the user as such,
since it's confusing as to whether it's a filesystem error. Convert
it to EHOSTUNREACH.
- Don't use the epoch value acquired through probing a server. If we
have two servers with the same UUID but in different cells, it's
hard to draw conclusions from them having different epoch values.
- Don't interpret the argument to the CB.ProbeUuid RPC as a
fileserver UUID and look up a fileserver from it.
- Deal with servers in different cells having the same UUIDs. In the
event that a CB.InitCallBackState3 RPC is received, we have to
break the callback promises for every server record matching that
UUID.
- Don't let afs_statfs return values that go below 0.
- Don't use running fileserver probe state to make server selection
and address selection decisions on. Only make decisions on final
state as the running state is cleared at the start of probing"

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- The largest change for this cycle is the DM zoned target's metadata
version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block devices
with a zoned device to ease the performance impact associated with
finite random zones of zoned device.
The changes came in three batches: the first prepared for and then
added the ability to pair a single regular block device, the second
was a batch of fixes to improve zoned's reclaim heuristic, and the
third removed the limitation of only adding a single additional
regular block device to allow many devices.
Testing has shown linear scaling as more devices are added.
- Add new emulated block size (ebs) target that emulates a smaller
logical_block_size than a block device supports
The primary use-case is to emulate "512e" devices that have 512 byte
logical_block_size and 4KB physical_block_size. This is useful to
some legacy applications that otherwise wouldn't be able to be used
on 4K devices because they depend on issuing IO in 512 byte
granularity.
- Add discard interfaces to DM bufio. First consumer of the interface
is the dm-ebs target that makes heavy use of dm-bufio.
- Fix DM crypt's block queue_limits stacking to not truncate
logic_block_size.
- Add Documentation for DM integrity's status line.
- Switch DMDEBUG from a compile time config option to instead use
dynamic debug via pr_debug.
- Fix DM multipath target's hueristic for how it manages
"queue_if_no_path" state internally.
DM multipath now avoids disabling "queue_if_no_path" unless it is
actually needed (e.g. in response to configure timeout or explicit
"fail_if_no_path" message).
This fixes reports of spurious -EIO being reported back to userspace
application during fault tolerance testing with an NVMe backend.
Added various dynamic DMDEBUG messages to assist with debugging
queue_if_no_path in the future.
- Add a new DM multipath "Historical Service Time" Path Selector.
- Fix DM multipath's dm_blk_ioctl() to switch paths on IO error.
- Improve DM writecache target performance by using explicit cache
flushing for target's single-threaded usecase and a small cleanup to
remove unnecessary test in persistent_memory_claim.
- Other small cleanups in DM core, dm-persistent-data, and DM
integrity.

Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"A more active cycle than most of the recent past, with a few large,
long discussed works this time.
The RNBD block driver has been posted for nearly two years now, and
flowing through RDMA due to it also introducing a new ULP.
The removal of FMR has been a recurring discussion theme for a long
time.
And the usual smattering of features and bug fixes.
Summary:
- Various small driver bugs fixes in rxe, mlx5, hfi1, and efa
- Continuing driver cleanups in bnxt_re, hns
- Big cleanup of mlx5 QP creation flows
- More consistent use of src port and flow label when LAG is used and
a mlx5 implementation
- Additional set of cleanups for IB CM
- 'RNBD' network block driver and target. This is a network block
RDMA device specific to ionos's cloud environment. It brings strong
multipath and resiliency capabilities.
- Accelerated IPoIB for HFI1
- QP/WQ/SRQ ioctl migration for uverbs, and support for multiple
async fds
- Support for exchanging the new IBTA defiend ECE data during RDMA CM
exchanges
- Removal of the very old and insecure FMR interface from all ULPs
and drivers. FRWR should be preferred for at least a decade now"

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v5.8 kernel cycle.
Core changes:
- A new GPIO aggregator driver has been merged: this can join a few
select GPIO lines into a new aggregated GPIO chip. This can be used
for security: a process can be granted access to only these lines,
for example for industrial control. Another way to use this is to
reexpose certain select lines to a virtual machine or container.
- Warn if the gpio-line-names is too long in he DT parser core.
- GPIO lines can now be looked up by line name in addition to being
looked up by offset.
New drivers:
- A new generic regmap GPIO driver has been merged. Too many regmap
drivers are starting to look like each other so we need to create
some common ground and try to move drivers over to using that.
- The F7188X driver now supports F81865.
Driver improvements:
- Large improvements to the PCA953x expander, get multiple lines and
several cleanups.
- Large improvements to the DesignWare DWAPB driver, and Sergey Semin
has volunteered to maintain it.
- PL061 can now be built as a module, this is part of a bigger effort
to make the ARM platforms more modular"
