Commit fe04ddf7c291 ("kbuild: Do not package /boot and /lib in make
tar-pkg") accidentally reverted two previous kbuild commits. I don't
know what I was thinking.
This brings back changes made by commits 24cc7fb69a5b ("x86/kbuild:
archscripts depends on scripts_basic") and c1c1a59e37da ("firmware: fix
directory creation rule matching with make 3.80")

The analysis of this is as follows. In init/main.c, we issue:
kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND);
This creates a new thread, which falls through to the ret_from_fork
assembly, with r4 set NULL and r5 set to kernel_init. You can see
this in your oops dump register set - r5 is 0xc0344555, which is the
address of kernel_init plus 1 which marks the function as Thumb code.
Now, let's look at this code a little closer - this is what the
disassembly looks like:
c000d180 <ret_from_fork>:
c000d180: f03a fe08 bl c0047d94 <schedule_tail>
c000d184: 2d00 cmp r5, #0
c000d186: bf1e ittt ne
c000d188: 4620 movne r0, r4
c000d18a: 46fe movne lr, pc <-- XXXXXXX
c000d18c: 46af movne pc, r5
c000d18e: 46e9 mov r9, sp
c000d190: ea4f 3959 mov.w r9, r9, lsr #13
c000d194: ea4f 3949 mov.w r9, r9, lsl #13
c000d198: e7c8 b.n c000d12c <ret_to_user>
c000d19a: bf00 nop
c000d19c: f3af 8000 nop.w
This code was introduced in 9fff2fa0db911 (arm: switch to saner
kernel_execve() semantics). I have marked one instruction, and it's
the significant one - I'll come back to that later.
Eventually, having had a successful call to kernel_execve(), kernel_init()
returns zero.
In returning, it uses the value in 'lr' which was set by the instruction
I marked above. Unfortunately, this causes lr to contain 0xc000d18e -
an even address. This switches the ISA to ARM on return but with a non
word aligned PC value.
So, what do we end up executing? Well, not the instructions above - yes
the opcodes, but they don't mean the same thing in ARM mode. In ARM mode,
it looks like this instead:
c000d18c: 46e946af strbtmi r4, [r9], pc, lsr #13
c000d190: 3959ea4f ldmdbcc r9, {r0, r1, r2, r3, r6, r9, fp, sp, lr, pc}^
c000d194: 3949ea4f stmdbcc r9, {r0, r1, r2, r3, r6, r9, fp, sp, lr, pc}^
c000d198: bf00e7c8 svclt 0x0000e7c8
c000d19c: 8000f3af andhi pc, r0, pc, lsr #7
c000d1a0: e88db092 stm sp, {r1, r4, r7, ip, sp, pc}
c000d1a4: 46e81fff ; <UNDEFINED> instruction: 0x46e81fff
c000d1a8: 8a00f3ef bhi 0xc004a16c
c000d1ac: 0a0cf08a beq 0xc03493dc
I have included more above, because it's relevant. The PSR flags which
we can see in the oops dump are nZCv, so Z and C are set.
All the above ARM instructions are not executed, except for two.
c000d1a0, which has no writeback, and writes below the current stack
pointer (and that data is lost when we take the next exception.) The
other instruction which is executed is c000d1ac, which takes us to...
0xc03493dc. However, remember that bit 1 of the PC got set. So that
makes the PC value 0xc03493de.
And that value is the value we find in the oops dump for PC. What is
the instruction here when interpreted in ARM mode?
0: f71e150c ; <UNDEFINED> instruction: 0xf71e150c
and there we have our undefined instruction (remember that the 'never'
condition code, 0xf, has been deprecated and is now always executed as
it is now being used for additional instructions.)
This path also nicely explains the state of the stack we see in the oops
dump too.
The above is a consistent and sane story for how we got to the oops
dump, which all stems from the instruction at 0xc000d18a being wrong.

The hostprogs need access to the CONFIG_* symbols found in
include/generated/autoconf.h. But commit abbf1590de22 ("UAPI: Partition
the header include path sets and add uapi/ header directories") replaced
$(LINUXINCLUDE) with $(USERINCLUDE) which doesn't contain the necessary
include paths.
This has the undesirable effect of breaking the EFI boot stub because
the #ifdef CONFIG_EFI_STUB code in arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c is
never compiled.
It should also be noted that because $(USERINCLUDE) isn't exported by
the top-level Makefile it's actually empty in arch/x86/boot/Makefile.

Pull ARM update from Russell King:
"This is the final round of stuff for ARM, left until the end of the
merge window to reduce the number of conflicts. This set contains the
ARM part of David Howells UAPI changes, and a fix to the ordering of
'select' statements in ARM Kconfig files (see the appropriate commit
for why this happened - thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing out the
problem.)
I've left this as long as I dare for this window to avoid conflicts,
and I regenerated the config patch yesterday, posting it to our
mailing list for review and testing. I have several acks which
include successful test reports for it.
However, today I notice we've got new conflicts with previously unseen
code... though that conflict should be trivial (it's my changes vs a
one liner.)"

As suggested by Andrew Morton:
This is a pet peeve of mine. Any time there's a long list of items
(header file inclusions, kconfig entries, array initalisers, etc) and
someone wants to add a new item, they *always* go and stick it at the
end of the list.
Guys, don't do this. Either put the new item into a randomly-chosen
position or, probably better, alphanumerically sort the list.
lets sort all our select statements alphanumerically. This commit was
created by the following perl:
while (<>) {
while (/\\\s*$/) {
$_ .= <>;
}
undef %selects if /^\s*config\s+/;
if (/^\s+select\s+(\w+).*/) {
if (defined($selects{$1})) {
if ($selects{$1} eq $_) {
print STDERR "Warning: removing duplicated $1 entry\n";
} else {
print STDERR "Error: $1 differently selected\n".
"\tOld: $selects{$1}\n".
"\tNew: $_\n";
exit 1;
}
}
$selects{$1} = $_;
next;
}
if (%selects and (/^\s*$/ or /^\s+help/ or /^\s+---help---/ or
/^endif/ or /^endchoice/)) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
undef %selects;
}
print;
}
if (%selects) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
}
It found two duplicates:
Warning: removing duplicated S5P_SETUP_MIPIPHY entry
Warning: removing duplicated HARDIRQS_SW_RESEND entry
and they are identical duplicates, hence the shrinkage in the diffstat
of two lines.
We have four testers reporting success of this change (Tony, Stephen,
Linus and Sekhar.)

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

Kconfig should have its ret_from_kernel_thread() do this:

IOW, its only difference from ret_from_fork() is that it does call the

"This has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put
initially in my tree due to oversight.
The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading.
There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can
register for. We are now doing that.
The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables
being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue
in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three
missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc)
be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on
its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came
with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain
non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we
take precaution of not doing that on such older installations.
Feature:
- Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore.
Bug-fixes:
- Three pvops call for Xen were undefined causing BUG_ONs.
- Add a quirk so that the shutdown watches (used by kdump) are not
used with older Xen (3.4).
- Fix ungraceful state transition for the HVC console."

We actually do not do anything about it. Just return a default
value of zero and if the kernel tries to write anything but 0
we BUG_ON.
This fixes the case when an user tries to suspend the machine
and it blows up in save_processor_state b/c 'read_cr8' is set
to NULL and we get:

The hypervisor will trap it. However without this patch,
we would crash as the .read_tscp is set to NULL. This patch
fixes it and sets it to the native_read_tscp call.

This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it
crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds
an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. The crash signature
looks like this:
kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test
KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed
Call Trace:
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type
is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed
to happen.

Pull second set of media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"Despite its size, most of the stuff here is trivial. This series
contains:
- s5p-mfc: additions at the driver and at the core to support H.264
hardware codec;
- Some improvements at s5p and davinci embedded drivers;
- Some V4L2 compliance fixes applied on a few drivers;
- Several random trivial patches, including several fixes and a few
new board support additions;
Notes:
1) Some Exynos media patches were dependent on some -arm fixes that
got merged on changeset 782cd9e. That's why this pull request is
based that changeset.
2) As promised, I reviewed the pending VB2 DMABUF series.
While setting a test environment, it was noticed that the upstream
support for Samsung Exynos 4 boards (smdk310 and Origen) are
broken upstream, likely due to regressions: both defconfigs are
wrong and regulator settings for both boards are broken. That,
allied with some bug at the dummy regulator driver, causes OOPSes
during boot time.
Long story short: even fixing the above, the proposed patches
OOPSed when running the DMABUF test. Not sure yet if the OOPSes
are due to some other undetected regressions, or due to some bug
on the patches.
Due to the above, DMABUF patches for vb2 got NACKed for 3.7."

Pull second set of pinctrl patches from Linus Walleij:
"Here is a late pinctrl pull request with stuff that wasn't quite
tested at the first pull request.
The main reason to not hold off is that the modifications to
irq_domain_add_simple() as reviewed by Rob Herring introduce new
infrastructure for irqdomains that will be useful for the next cycle:
instead of sprinkling irq descriptor allocation all over the kernel
wherever a "legacy" domain is registered, which is necessary for any
platform using sparse IRQs, and many irq chips are say GPIO
controllers which may be used with several systems, some with sparse
IRQs some not, we push this into the irq_domain_add_simple() so we can
atleast do mistakes in one place.
The irq_domain_add_simple() is currently unused in the kernel, so I
need to provide a user. The Nomadik stuff that goes with are changes
to the driver I use day-to-day to make use of this facility (and a
dependency), so see it as a way to eat my own dogfood: if this blows
up the egg hits my face.
A second round of pinctrl patches for v3.7:
- Complement the Nomadik pinctrl driver with alternate Cx functions
so it handles all oddities.
- A patch to the IRQdomain to reform the simple irqdomain to handle
IRQ descriptor allocation dynamically.
- Use the above feature in the Nomadik pin controller."

Turn the slow side of work_pending into C function, including all
the looping. What we get out of that:
* we do _not_ call get_signal_to_deliver() with IRQs disabled
anymore
* no need to save/restore volatiles on each pass if there
turns to be more than one (unlikely, but still)
* all double-restart prevention is in C now.
* glue gets simpler.

In case we have both NEED_RESCHED and SIGPENDING/NOTIFY_RESUME,
handle the latter first. We'll get to original priorities in
the next commit, but now that allows to simplify the treatment
of NEED_RESCHED-only case nicely. Namely, now there no need to
preserve the data for restarts across the call of schedule() in
$work_resched; we can get there only if we had either returned
from syscall without SIGPENDING (in which case we should've
had no restart-worthy return value and want no restarts) or
already got through do_notify_resume() call (in which case we
want no restarts anymore). So we can just slap 0 into $19
instead of preserving it (and $20).
