<content type='text'>
For the same reason as commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make "make
install" not depend on vmlinux"), the install targets should never
trigger the rebuild of the kernel.

The variable, CONFIGURE, is not set by anyone. Remove it as well.

The query parameter block might contain additional information and can
be extended in the future. If the size of the block does not suffice we
get an error code of rc=0x100.  The buffer will contain all information
up to the specified size and the hypervisor/guest simply do not need the
additional information as they do not know about the new data.  That
means that we can (and must) accept rc=0x100 as success.

Add the new kernel command line parameter 'dfltcc=' to configure s390
zlib hardware support.

Format: { on | off | def_only | inf_only | always }
 on:       s390 zlib hardware support for compression on
           level 1 and decompression (default)
 off:      No s390 zlib hardware support
 def_only: s390 zlib hardware support for deflate
           only (compression on level 1)
 inf_only: s390 zlib hardware support for inflate
           only (decompression)
 always:   Same as 'on' but ignores the selected compression
           level always using hardware support (used for debugging)

Setting a kprobe on getname_flags() failed:

$ echo 'p:tmr1 getname_flags +0(%r2):ustring' &gt; kprobe_events
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

Debugging the kprobes code showed that the address of
getname_flags() is contained in the __bug_table. Kprobes
doesn't allow to set probes at BUG() locations.

$ objdump -j  __bug_table -x build/fs/namei.o
[..]
0000000000000108 R_390_PC32        .text+0x00000000000075a8
000000000000010c R_390_PC32        .L223+0x0000000000000004

I was expecting getname_flags() to start with a BUG(), but:

7598:       e3 20 10 00 00 04       lg      %r2,0(%r1)
759e:       c0 f4 00 00 00 00       jg      759e &lt;putname+0x7e&gt;
75a0: R_390_PLT32DBL    kmem_cache_free+0x2
75a4:       a7 f4 00 01             j       75a6 &lt;putname+0x86&gt;

00000000000075a8 &lt;getname_flags&gt;:
75a8:       c0 04 00 00 00 00       brcl    0,75a8 &lt;getname_flags&gt;
75ae:       eb 6f f0 48 00 24       stmg    %r6,%r15,72(%r15)
75b4:       b9 04 00 ef             lgr     %r14,%r15
75b8:       e3 f0 ff a8 ff 71       lay     %r15,-88(%r15)

So the BUG() is actually the last opcode of the previous function.
Fix this by switching to using the MONITOR CALL (MC) instruction,
and set the entry in __bug_table to the beginning of that MC.

<title>s390/kaslr: store KASLR offset for early dumps</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a9f2f6865d784477e1c7b59269d3a384abafd9ca</id>
<content type='text'>
The KASLR offset is added to vmcoreinfo in arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo(),
so that it can be found by crash when processing kernel dumps.

However, arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is called during a subsys_initcall,
so if the kernel crashes before that, we have no vmcoreinfo and no KASLR
offset.

Fix this by storing the KASLR offset in the lowcore, where the vmcore_info
pointer will be stored, and where it can be found by crash. In order to
make it distinguishable from a real vmcore_info pointer, mark it as uneven
(KASLR offset itself is aligned to THREAD_SIZE).

When arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() stores the real vmcore_info pointer in
the lowcore, it overwrites the KASLR offset. At that point, the KASLR
offset is not yet added to vmcoreinfo, so we also need to move the
mem_assign_absolute() behind the vmcoreinfo_append_str().

Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:

 - Adjust PMU device drivers registration to avoid WARN_ON and few other
   perf improvements.

 - Enhance tracing in vfio-ccw.

 - Few stack unwinder fixes and improvements, convert get_wchan custom
   stack unwinding to generic api usage.

 - Fixes for mm helpers issues uncovered with tests validating
   architecture page table helpers.

 - Fix noexec bit handling when hardware doesn't support it.

 - Fix memleak and unsigned value compared with zero bugs in crypto
   code. Minor code simplification.

 - Fix crash during kdump with kasan enabled kernel.

 - Switch bug and alternatives from asm to asm_inline to improve
   inlining decisions.

 - Use 'depends on cc-option' for MARCH and TUNE options in Kconfig, add
   z13s and z14 ZR1 to TUNE descriptions.

 - Minor head64.S simplification.

 - Fix physical to logical CPU map for SMT.

 - Several cleanups in qdio code.

 - Other minor cleanups and fixes all over the code.

GCC unescapes escaped string section names while Clang does not. Because
__section uses the `#` stringification operator for the section name, it
doesn't need to be escaped.

This antipattern was found with:
$ grep -e __section\(\" -e __section__\(\" -r

<content type='text'>
Commit "bpf: Process in-kernel BTF" in linux-next introduced an undefined
__weak symbol, which results in an R_390_GLOB_DAT relocation type. That
is not yet handled by the KASLR relocation code, and the kernel stops with
the message "Unknown relocation type".

Add code to detect and handle R_390_GLOB_DAT relocation types and undefined
symbols.
