commit 4e9903b086 upstream.
There are some issues in the test_fortify Makefile code.
Problem 1: cc-disable-warning invokes compiler dozens of times
To see how many times the cc-disable-warning is evaluated, change
this code:
$(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source)
to:
$(call cc-disable-warning,$(shell touch /tmp/fortify-$$$$)fortify-source)
Then, build the kernel with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y. You will see a
large number of '/tmp/fortify-<PID>' files created:
$ ls -1 /tmp/fortify-* | wc
80 80 1600
This means the compiler was invoked 80 times just for checking the
-Wno-fortify-source flag support.
$(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source) should be added to a simple
variable instead of a recursive variable.
Problem 2: do not recompile string.o when the test code is updated
The test cases are independent of the kernel. However, when the test
code is updated, $(obj)/string.o is rebuilt and vmlinux is relinked
due to this dependency:
$(obj)/string.o: $(obj)/$(TEST_FORTIFY_LOG)
always-y is suitable for building the log files.
Problem 3: redundant code
clean-files += $(addsuffix .o, $(TEST_FORTIFY_LOGS))
... is unneeded because the top Makefile globally cleans *.o files.
This commit fixes these issues and makes the code readable.

[ Upstream commit b9d21c32dc ]
In conf_askvalue(), the 'def' argument (retrieved via sym_get_string_value)
can be NULL. While current call sites ensure that 'def' is valid,
calling printf("%s\n", def) is technically undefined behavior and could
lead to a segmentation fault on certain libc implementations if the
function were called with a NULL pointer in the future.
Improve the robustness of conf_askvalue() by providing an empty string
as a fallback.
Additionally, remove the redundant re-initialization of the 'line'
buffer inside the !sym_is_changeable(sym) block, as it is already
properly initialized at the function entry.

[ Upstream commit ef378c3b82 ]
When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not
removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function
will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added
to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the
functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is
used.
Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function
that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a
weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because
kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in
the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in
available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it.
At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice.
At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up
as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can
be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220412094923.0abe90955e5db486b7bca279@kernel.org/
The commit b39181f7c6 ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to avoid
adding weak function") was a workaround to this by checking the function
address before printing its name. If the address was too far from the
function given by the name then instead of printing the name it would
print: __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset>
The real issue is that these invalid addresses are listed in the ftrace
table look up which available_filter_functions is derived from. A place
holder must be listed in that file because set_ftrace_filter may take a
series of indexes into that file instead of names to be able to do O(1)
lookups to enable filtering (many tools use this method).
Even if kallsyms saved the size of the function, it does not remove the
need of having these place holders. The real solution is to not add a weak
function into the ftrace table in the first place.
To solve this, the sorttable.c code that sorts the mcount regions during
the build is modified to take a "nm -S vmlinux" input, sort it, and any
function listed in the mcount_loc section that is not within a boundary of
the function list given by nm is considered a weak function and is zeroed
out.
Note, this does not mean they will remain zero when booting as KASLR
will still shift those addresses. To handle this, the entries in the
mcount_loc section will be ignored if they are zero or match the
kaslr_offset() value.

~# grep __ftrace_invalid_address___ /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions | wc -l

After:

commit af20ae33e7 upstream.
`rustfmt` is configured via the `.rustfmt.toml` file in the source tree,
and we apply `rustfmt` to the macro expanded sources generated by the
`.rsi` target.
However, under an `O=` pointing to an external folder (i.e. not just
a subdir), `rustfmt` will not find the file when checking the parent
folders. Since the edition is configured in this file, this can lead to
errors when it encounters newer syntax, e.g.
error: expected one of `!`, `.`, `::`, `;`, `?`, `where`, `{`, or an operator, found `"rust_minimal"`

A workaround is to use `RUSTFMT=n`, which is documented in the `Makefile`
help for cases where macro expanded source may happen to break `rustfmt`
for other reasons, but this is not one of those cases.
One solution would be to pass `--edition`, but we want `rustfmt` to
use the entire configuration, even if currently we essentially use the
default configuration.
Thus explicitly give the path to the config file to `rustfmt` instead.

[ Upstream commit af61da281f ]
When building out-of-tree modules with CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=y,
module signing fails because the private key path uses $(srctree)
while the public key path uses $(objtree). Since signing keys are
generated in the build directory during kernel compilation, both
paths should use $(objtree) for consistency.
This causes SSL errors like:
SSL error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory
sign-file: /kernel-src/certs/signing_key.pem
The issue occurs because:
- sig-key uses: $(srctree)/certs/signing_key.pem (source tree)
- cmd_sign uses: $(objtree)/certs/signing_key.x509 (build tree)
But both keys are generated in $(objtree) during the build.
This complements commit 25ff08aa43 ("kbuild: Fix signing issue for
external modules") which fixed the scripts path and public key path,
but missed the private key path inconsistency.
Fixes out-of-tree module signing for configurations with separate
source and build directories (e.g., O=/kernel-out).

[ Upstream commit 51337a9a3a ]
GCC doesn't support "hwasan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix", only
"asan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix"[0], while LLVM supports both. This is
already taken into account when checking
"CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", but not in the KASAN Makefile
adding those parameters when "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" is enabled.
Replace the version check with "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX",
which already validates that mem-intrinsic prefix parameter can be used,
and choose the correct name depending on compiler.
GCC 13 and above trigger "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX" which
prevents `mem{cpy,move,set}()` being redefined in "mm/kasan/shadow.c"
since commit 36be5cba99 ("kasan: treat meminstrinsic as builtins in
uninstrumented files"), as we expect the compiler to prefix those calls
with `__(hw)asan_` instead. But as the option passed to GCC has been
incorrect, the compiler has not been emitting those prefixes, effectively
never calling the instrumented versions of `mem{cpy,move,set}()` with
"CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" enabled.
If "CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCES" is enabled, this issue would be mitigated as
it redefines `mem{cpy,move,set}()` and properly aliases the
`__underlying_mem*()` that will be called to the instrumented versions.

[ Upstream commit 694174f94e ]
In case a menu has comment without letters/numbers (eg. characters
matching the regexp '^[^[:alpha:][:digit:]]+$', for example - or *),
hitting space will cycle through those comments, rather than
selecting/deselecting the currently-highlighted option.
This is the behaviour of hitting any letter/digit: jump to the next
option which prompt starts with that letter. The only letters that
do not behave as such are 'y' 'm' and 'n'. Prompts that start with
one of those three letters are instead matched on the first letter
that is not 'y', 'm' or 'n'.
Fix that by treating 'space' as we treat y/m/n, ie. as an action key,
not as shortcut to jump to prompt.

commit a02b0cde8e upstream.
In commit 721255b982 ("genirq: Use a maple tree for interrupt descriptor
management"), the irq_desc_tree was replaced with a sparse_irqs tree using
a maple tree structure. Since the script looked for the irq_desc_tree
symbol which is no longer available, no interrupts would be printed and
the script output would not be useful anymore.
In addition to looking up the correct symbol (sparse_irqs), a new module
(mapletree.py) is added whose mtree_load() implementation is largely
copied after the C version and uses the same variable and intermediate
function names wherever possible to ensure that both the C and Python
version be updated in the future.
This restores the scripts' output to match that of /proc/interrupts.

commit 358de8b4f2 upstream.
The new installkernel application that is now included in systemd-udev
package allows installation although destination files are already present
in the boot directory of the kernel package, but is failing with the
implemented workaround for the old installkernel application from grubby
package.
For the new installkernel application, as Davide says:
<<The %post currently does a shuffling dance before calling installkernel.
This isn't actually necessary afaict, and the current implementation
ends up triggering downstream issues such as
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/29568
This commit simplifies the logic to remove the shuffling. For reference,
the original logic was added in commit 3c9c7a14b627("rpm-pkg: add %post
section to create initramfs and grub hooks").>>
But we need to keep the old behavior as well, because the old installkernel
application from grubby package, does not allow this simplification and
we need to be backward compatible to avoid issues with the different
packages.
Mimic Fedora shipping process and store vmlinuz, config amd System.map
in the module directory instead of the boot directory. In this way, we will
avoid the commented problem for all the cases, because the new destination
files are not going to exist in the boot directory of the kernel package.
Replace installkernel tool with kernel-install tool, because the latter is
more complete.
Besides, after installkernel tool execution, check to complete if the
correct package files vmlinuz, System.map and config files are present
in /boot directory, and if necessary, copy manually for install operation.
In this way, take into account if files were not previously copied from
/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/* scripts and if the suitable files for the
requested package are present (it could be others if the rpm files were
replace with a new pacakge with the same release and a different build).
Tested with Fedora 38, Fedora 39, RHEL 9, Oracle Linux 9.3,
openSUSE Tumbleweed and openMandrive ROME, using dnf/zypper and rpm tools.

Silencing the instances from typecheck.h is difficult because '= {}' is
not available in older but supported compilers and '= {0}' would cause
warnings about a literal 0 being treated as NULL. While it might be
possible to come up with a local hack to silence the warning for
clang-21+, it may not be worth it since -Wuninitialized will still
trigger if an uninitialized const variable is actually used.
In all audited cases of the "field" variant of the warning, the members
are either not used in the particular call path, modified through other
means such as memset() / memcpy() because the containing object is not
const, or are within a union with other non-const members.
