# f77d26a9 11-Jun-2020 Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Merge branch 'x86/entry' into ras/core

to fixup conflicts in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/core.c so MCE specific follow
up patches can be applied without creating a horrible merge conflict
afterwards.

Merge branch 'rwonce/rework' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux

Pull READ/WRITE_ONCE rework from Will Deacon:
"This the READ_ONCE rework I've been working on for a while, which
bumps the minimum GCC version and improves code-gen on arm64 when
stack protector is enabled"

[ Side note: I'm _really_ tempted to raise the minimum gcc version to
4.9, so that we can just say that we require _Generic() support.

That would allow us to more cleanly handle a lot of the cases where we
depend on very complex macros with 'sizeof' or __builtin_choose_expr()
with __builtin_types_compatible_p() etc.

This branch has a workaround for sparse not handling _Generic(),
either, but that was already fixed in the sparse development branch,
so it's really just gcc-4.9 that we'd require. - Linus ]

* 'rwonce/rework' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux:
compiler_types.h: Use unoptimized __unqual_scalar_typeof for sparse
compiler_types.h: Optimize __unqual_scalar_typeof compilation time
compiler.h: Enforce that READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() access size is sizeof(long)
compiler-types.h: Include naked type in __pick_integer_type() match
READ_ONCE: Fix comment describing 2x32-bit atomicity
gcov: Remove old GCC 3.4 support
arm64: barrier: Use '__unqual_scalar_typeof' for acquire/release macros
locking/barriers: Use '__unqual_scalar_typeof' for load-acquire macros
READ_ONCE: Drop pointer qualifiers when reading from scalar types
READ_ONCE: Enforce atomicity for {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() memory accesses
READ_ONCE: Simplify implementations of {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()
arm64: csum: Disable KASAN for do_csum()
fault_inject: Don't rely on "return value" from WRITE_ONCE()
net: tls: Avoid assigning 'const' pointer to non-const pointer
netfilter: Avoid assigning 'const' pointer to non-const pointer
compiler/gcc: Raise minimum GCC version for kernel builds to 4.8

compiler/gcc: Raise minimum GCC version for kernel builds to 4.8

It is very rare to see versions of GCC prior to 4.8 being used to build
the mainline kernel. These old compilers are also know to have codegen
issues which can lead to silent miscompilation:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145

Raise the minimum GCC version for kernel build to 4.8 and remove some
tautological Kconfig dependencies as a consequence.

Merge tag 'kbuild-v5.7-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild

Pull more Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

- raise minimum supported binutils version to 2.23

- remove old CONFIG_AS_* macros that we know binutils >= 2.23 supports

- move remaining CONFIG_AS_* tests to Kconfig from Makefile

- enable -Wtautological-compare warnings to catch more issues

- do not support GCC plugins for GCC <= 4.7

- fix various breakages of 'make xconfig'

- include the linker version used for linking the kernel into
LINUX_COMPILER, which is used for the banner, and also exposed to
/proc/version

- link lib-y objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y, which
allows us to remove the lib-ksyms.o workaround, and to solve the last
known issue of the LLVM linker

- add dummy tools in scripts/dummy-tools/ to enable all compiler tests
in Kconfig, which will be useful for distro maintainers

- support the single switch, LLVM=1 to use Clang and all LLVM utilities
instead of GCC and Binutils.

- support LLVM_IAS=1 to enable the integrated assembler, which is still
experimental

Documentation/changes: Raise minimum supported binutils version to 2.23

The currently minimum-supported binutils version 2.21 has the problem of
promoting symbols which are defined outside of a section into absolute.
According to Arvind:

binutils-2.21 and -2.22. An x86-64 defconfig will fail with
Invalid absolute R_X86_64_32S relocation: _etext
and after fixing that one, with
Invalid absolute R_X86_64_32S relocation: __end_of_kernel_reserve

Those two versions of binutils have a bug when it comes to handling
symbols defined outside of a section and binutils 2.23 has the proper
fix, see: https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/binutils/2012-06/msg00155.html

Therefore, up to the fixed version directly, skipping the broken ones.

Currently shipping distros already have the fixed binutils version so
there should be no breakage resulting from this.

For more details about the whole thing, see the thread in Link.
