__warn_printk() is called both as a global function when CONFIG_BUG is enabled, and as a local function in other configs. The other two here are called indirectly from generated or assembler code.
Add prototypes for all of these.

kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers
kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and oops helpers.
There are several purposes of doing this: - dropping dependency in bug.h - dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h - unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain
At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

once: implement DO_ONCE_LITE for non-fast-path "do once" functionality
Certain uses of "do once" functionality reside outside of fast path, and so do not require jump label patching via static keys, making existing DO_ONCE undesirable in such cases.
Replace uses of __section(".data.once") with DO_ONCE_LITE(_IF)?
This patch changes the return values of xfs_printk_once, printk_once, and printk_deferred_once. Before, they returned whether the print was performed, but now, they always return true. This is okay because the return values of the following macros are entirely ignored throughout the kernel: - xfs_printk_once - xfs_warn_once - xfs_notice_once - xfs_info_once - printk_once - pr_emerg_once - pr_alert_once - pr_crit_once - pr_err_once - pr_warn_once - pr_notice_once - pr_info_once - pr_devel_once - pr_debug_once - printk_deferred_once - orc_warn

add support for Clang CFI
This change adds support for Clang’s forward-edge Control Flow Integrity (CFI) checking. With CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, the compiler injects a runtime check before each indirect function call to ensure the target is a valid function with the correct static type. This restricts possible call targets and makes it more difficult for an attacker to exploit bugs that allow the modification of stored function pointers. For more details, see:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ControlFlowIntegrity.html
Clang requires CONFIG_LTO_CLANG to be enabled with CFI to gain visibility to possible call targets. Kernel modules are supported with Clang’s cross-DSO CFI mode, which allows checking between independently compiled components.
With CFI enabled, the compiler injects a __cfi_check() function into the kernel and each module for validating local call targets. For cross-module calls that cannot be validated locally, the compiler calls the global __cfi_slowpath_diag() function, which determines the target module and calls the correct __cfi_check() function. This patch includes a slowpath implementation that uses __module_address() to resolve call targets, and with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG_SHADOW enabled, a shadow map that speeds up module look-ups by ~3x.
Clang implements indirect call checking using jump tables and offers two methods of generating them. With canonical jump tables, the compiler renames each address-taken function to <function>.cfi and points the original symbol to a jump table entry, which passes __cfi_check() validation. This isn’t compatible with stand-alone assembly code, which the compiler doesn’t instrument, and would result in indirect calls to assembly code to fail. Therefore, we default to using non-canonical jump tables instead, where the compiler generates a local jump table entry <function>.cfi_jt for each address-taken function, and replaces all references to the function with the address of the jump table entry.
Note that because non-canonical jump table addresses are local to each component, they break cross-module function address equality. Specifically, the address of a global function will be different in each module, as it's replaced with the address of a local jump table entry. If this address is passed to a different module, it won’t match the address of the same function taken there. This may break code that relies on comparing addresses passed from other components.
CFI checking can be disabled in a function with the __nocfi attribute. Additionally, CFI can be disabled for an entire compilation unit by filtering out CC_FLAGS_CFI.
By default, CFI failures result in a kernel panic to stop a potential exploit. CONFIG_CFI_PERMISSIVE enables a permissive mode, where the kernel prints out a rate-limited warning instead, and allows execution to continue. This option is helpful for locating type mismatches, but should only be enabled during development.

compiler.h: Move instrumentation_begin()/end() to new <linux/instrumentation.h> header
Linus pointed out that compiler.h - which is a key header that gets included in every single one of the 28,000+ kernel files during a kernel build - was bloated in:
655389666643: ("vmlinux.lds.h: Create section for protection against instrumentation")
Linus noted:

Move these primitives into a new header: <linux/instrumentation.h>, and include that header in the headers that make use of it.
Unfortunately one of these headers is asm-generic/bug.h, which does get included in a lot of places, similarly to compiler.h. So the de-bloating effect isn't as good as we'd like it to be - but at least the interfaces are defined separately.
No change to functionality intended.

bug: move WARN_ON() "cut here" into exception handler
The original clean up of "cut here" missed the WARN_ON() case (that does not have a printk message), which was fixed recently by adding an explicit printk of "cut here". This had the downside of adding a printk() to every WARN_ON() caller, which reduces the utility of using an instruction exception to streamline the resulting code. By making this a new BUGFLAG, all of these can be removed and "cut here" can be handled by the exception handler.
This was very pronounced on PowerPC, but the effect can be seen on x86 as well. The resulting text size of a defconfig build shows some small savings from this patch:

bug: refactor away warn_slowpath_fmt_taint()
Patch series "Clean up WARN() "cut here" handling", v2.
Christophe Leroy noticed that the fix for missing "cut here" in the WARN() case was adding explicit printk() calls instead of teaching the exception handler to add it. This refactors the bug/warn infrastructure to pass this information as a new BUGFLAG.
Longer details repeated from the last patch in the series:
bug: move WARN_ON() "cut here" into exception handler
The original cleanup of "cut here" missed the WARN_ON() case (that does not have a printk message), which was fixed recently by adding an explicit printk of "cut here". This had the downside of adding a printk() to every WARN_ON() caller, which reduces the utility of using an instruction exception to streamline the resulting code. By making this a new BUGFLAG, all of these can be removed and "cut here" can be handled by the exception handler.
This was very pronounced on PowerPC, but the effect can be seen on x86 as well. The resulting text size of a defconfig build shows some small savings from this patch:
text data bss dec hex filename 19691167 5134320 1646664 26472151 193eed7 vmlinux.before 19676362 5134260 1663048 26473670 193f4c6 vmlinux.after
This change also opens the door for creating something like BUG_MSG(), where a custom printk() before issuing BUG(), without confusing the "cut here" line.
This patch (of 7):
There's no reason to have specialized helpers for passing the warn taint down to __warn(). Consolidate and refactor helper macros, removing __WARN_printf() and warn_slowpath_fmt_taint().

x86/bug: Macrofy the BUG table section handling, to work around GCC inlining bugs
As described in:
77b0bf55bc67: ("kbuild/Makefile: Prepare for using macros in inline assembly code to work around asm() related GCC inlining bugs")
GCC's inlining heuristics are broken with common asm() patterns used in kernel code, resulting in the effective disabling of inlining.
The workaround is to set an assembly macro and call it from the inline assembly block. As a result GCC considers the inline assembly block as a single instruction. (Which it isn't, but that's the best we can get.)
This patch increases the kernel size:
text data bss dec hex filename 18146889 10225380 2957312 31329581 1de0d2d ./vmlinux before 18147336 10226688 2957312 31331336 1de1408 ./vmlinux after (+1755)
But enables more aggressive inlining (and probably better branch decisions).
The number of static text symbols in vmlinux is much lower:
Before: 40218 After: 40053 (-165)
The assembly code gets harder to read due to the extra macro layer.

include/asm-generic/bug.h: clarify valid uses of WARN()
Explicitly state that WARN*() should be used only for recoverable kernel issues/bugs and that it should not be used for any kind of invalid external inputs or transient conditions.
Motivation: it's a very useful capability to be able to understand if a particular kernel splat means a kernel bug or simply an invalid user-space program. For the former one wants to notify kernel developers, while notifying kernel developers for the latter is annoying. Even a kernel developer may not know what to do with a WARNING in an unfamiliar subsystem. This is especially critical for any automated testing systems that may use panic_on_warn and mail kernel developers.
The clear separation also serves as an additional documentation: is it a condition that must never occur because of additional checks/logic elsewhere? or is it simply a check for invalid inputs or unfortunate conditions?
Use of pr_err() for user messages also leads to better error messages. "Something is wrong in file foo on line X" is not particularly useful message for end user. pr_err() forces developers to write more meaningful error messages for user.
As of now we are almost there. We are doing systematic kernel testing with panic_on_warn and are not seeing massive amounts of false positives. But every now and then another WARN on ENOMEM or invalid inputs pops up and leads to a lengthy argument each time. The goal of this change is to officially document the rules.

bug.h: work around GCC PR82365 in BUG()
Looking at functions with large stack frames across all architectures led me discovering that BUG() suffers from the same problem as fortify_panic(), which I've added a workaround for already.
In short, variables that go out of scope by calling a noreturn function or __builtin_unreachable() keep using stack space in functions afterwards.
A workaround that was identified is to insert an empty assembler statement just before calling the function that doesn't return. I'm adding a macro "barrier_before_unreachable()" to document this, and insert calls to that in all instances of BUG() that currently suffer from this problem.
The files that saw the largest change from this had these frame sizes before, and much less with my patch:
fs/ext4/inode.c:82:1: warning: the frame size of 1672 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/ext4/namei.c:434:1: warning: the frame size of 904 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/ext4/super.c:2279:1: warning: the frame size of 1160 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/ext4/xattr.c:146:1: warning: the frame size of 1168 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/f2fs/inode.c:152:1: warning: the frame size of 1424 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c:1195:1: warning: the frame size of 1068 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c:395:1: warning: the frame size of 1084 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c:298:1: warning: the frame size of 928 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c:418:1: warning: the frame size of 908 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.c:718:1: warning: the frame size of 960 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c:1500:1: warning: the frame size of 1088 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
In case of ARC and CRIS, it turns out that the BUG() implementation actually does return (or at least the compiler thinks it does), resulting in lots of warnings about uninitialized variable use and leaving noreturn functions, such as:
block/cfq-iosched.c: In function 'cfq_async_queue_prio': block/cfq-iosched.c:3804:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type] include/linux/dmaengine.h: In function 'dma_maxpq': include/linux/dmaengine.h:1123:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]
This makes them call __builtin_trap() instead, which should normally dump the stack and kill the current process, like some of the other architectures already do.
I tried adding barrier_before_unreachable() to panic() and fortify_panic() as well, but that had very little effect, so I'm not submitting that patch.

bug: fix "cut here" location for __WARN_TAINT architectures
Prior to v4.11, x86 used warn_slowpath_fmt() for handling WARN()s. After WARN() was moved to using UD0 on x86, the warning text started appearing _before_ the "cut here" line. This appears to have been a long-standing bug on architectures that used __WARN_TAINT, but it didn't get fixed.
v4.11 and earlier on x86:
------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2956 at drivers/misc/lkdtm_bugs.c:65 lkdtm_WARNING+0x21/0x30 This is a warning message Modules linked in:
v4.12 and later on x86:
This is a warning message ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2982 at drivers/misc/lkdtm_bugs.c:68 lkdtm_WARNING+0x15/0x20 Modules linked in:
With this fix:
------------[ cut here ]------------ This is a warning message WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3009 at drivers/misc/lkdtm_bugs.c:67 lkdtm_WARNING+0x15/0x20
Since the __FILE__ reporting happens as part of the UD0 handler, it isn't trivial to move the message to after the WARNING line, but at least we can fix the position of the "cut here" line so all the various logging tools will start including the actual runtime warning message again, when they follow the instruction and "cut here".

kernel debug: support resetting WARN*_ONCE
I like _ONCE warnings because it's guaranteed that they don't flood the log.
During testing I find it useful to reset the state of the once warnings, so that I can rerun tests and see if they trigger again, or can guarantee that a test run always hits the same warnings.
This patch adds a debugfs interface to reset all the _ONCE warnings so that they appear again:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/clear_warn_once
This is implemented by putting all the warning booleans into a special section, and clearing it.
