90c278c6d0 docs/scripts/gdb: add necessary make scripts_gdb step
[ Upstream commit 6b219431037bf98c9efd49716aea9b68440477a3 ]

In order to debug the kernel successfully with gdb you need to run
'make scripts_gdb' nowadays.

This was changed with the following commit:

Commit 67274c0834 ("scripts/gdb: delay generation of gdb
constants.py")

In order to have a complete guide for beginners this remark
should be added to the offial documentation.

d0a44e4829 UPSTREAM: kcov: fix struct layout for kcov_remote_arg
(Upstream commit a69b83e1ae7f6c5ff2cc310870c1708405d86be2.)

Make the layout of kcov_remote_arg the same for 32-bit and 64-bit code.
This makes it more convenient to write userspace apps that can be
compiled into 32-bit or 64-bit binaries and still work with the same
64-bit kernel.

Also use proper __u32 types in uapi headers instead of unsigned ints.

75579189e9 UPSTREAM: kcov: remote coverage support
(Upstream commit eec028c9386ed1a692aa01a85b55952202b41619.)

Patch series " kcov: collect coverage from usb and vhost", v3.

This patchset extends kcov to allow collecting coverage from backgound
kernel threads.  This extension requires custom annotations for each of
the places where coverage collection is desired.  This patchset
implements this for hub events in the USB subsystem and for vhost
workers.  See the first patch description for details about the kcov
extension.  The other two patches apply this kcov extension to USB and
vhost.

Examples of other subsystems that might potentially benefit from this
when custom annotations are added (the list is based on
process_one_work() callers for bugs recently reported by syzbot):

1. fs: writeback wb_workfn() worker,
2. net: addrconf_dad_work()/addrconf_verify_work() workers,
3. net: neigh_periodic_work() worker,
4. net/p9: p9_write_work()/p9_read_work() workers,
5. block: blk_mq_run_work_fn() worker.

These patches have been used to enable coverage-guided USB fuzzing with
syzkaller for the last few years, see the details here:

  https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/linux/external_fuzzing_usb.md

This patchset has been pushed to the public Linux kernel Gerrit
instance:

  https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/1524

This patch (of 3):

Add background thread coverage collection ability to kcov.

With KCOV_ENABLE coverage is collected only for syscalls that are issued
from the current process.  With KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE it's possible to
collect coverage for arbitrary parts of the kernel code, provided that
those parts are annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().

This allows to collect coverage from two types of kernel background
threads: the global ones, that are spawned during kernel boot in a
limited number of instances (e.g.  one USB hub_event() worker thread is
spawned per USB HCD); and the local ones, that are spawned when a user
interacts with some kernel interface (e.g.  vhost workers).

To enable collecting coverage from a global background thread, a unique
global handle must be assigned and passed to the corresponding
kcov_remote_start() call.  Then a userspace process can pass a list of
such handles to the KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl in the handles array field
of the kcov_remote_arg struct.  This will attach the used kcov device to
the code sections, that are referenced by those handles.

Since there might be many local background threads spawned from
different userspace processes, we can't use a single global handle per
annotation.  Instead, the userspace process passes a non-zero handle
through the common_handle field of the kcov_remote_arg struct.  This
common handle gets saved to the kcov_handle field in the current
task_struct and needs to be passed to the newly spawned threads via
custom annotations.  Those threads should in turn be annotated with
kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().

Internally kcov stores handles as u64 integers.  The top byte of a
handle is used to denote the id of a subsystem that this handle belongs
to, and the lower 4 bytes are used to denote the id of a thread instance
within that subsystem.  A reserved value 0 is used as a subsystem id for
common handles as they don't belong to a particular subsystem.  The
bytes 4-7 are currently reserved and must be zero.  In the future the
number of bytes used for the subsystem or handle ids might be increased.

When a particular userspace process collects coverage by via a common
handle, kcov will collect coverage for each code section that is
annotated to use the common handle obtained as kcov_handle from the
current task_struct.  However non common handles allow to collect
coverage selectively from different subsystems.

0fe9a448a0 mm, page_owner: decouple freeing stack trace from debug_pagealloc
Commit 8974558f49 ("mm, page_owner, debug_pagealloc: save and dump
freeing stack trace") enhanced page_owner to also store freeing stack
trace, when debug_pagealloc is also enabled.  KASAN would also like to
do this [1] to improve error reports to debug e.g. UAF issues.

Kirill has suggested that the freeing stack trace saving should be also
possible to be enabled separately from KASAN or debug_pagealloc, i.e.
with an extra boot option.  Qian argued that we have enough options
already, and avoiding the extra overhead is not worth the complications
in the case of a debugging option.  Kirill noted that the extra stack
handle in struct page_owner requires 0.1% of memory.

This patch therefore enables free stack saving whenever page_owner is
enabled, regardless of whether debug_pagealloc or KASAN is also enabled.
KASAN kernels booted with page_owner=on will thus benefit from the
improved error reports.

eebf4dd452 kselftest: Add test module framework header
kselftest runs as a userspace process.  Sometimes we need to test things
from kernel space.  One way of doing this is by creating a test module.
Currently doing so requires developers to write a bunch of boiler plate
in the module if kselftest is to be used to run the tests.  This means
we currently have a load of duplicate code to achieve these ends.  If we
have a uniform method for implementing test modules then we can reduce
code duplication, ensure uniformity in the test framework, ease code
maintenance, and reduce the work required to create tests.  This all
helps to encourage developers to write and run tests.

Add a C header file that can be included in test modules.  This provides
a single point for common test functions/macros.  Implement a few macros
that make up the start of the test framework.

Add documentation for new kselftest header to kselftest documentation.

bb2407a721 There's been a fair amount of activity in Documentation/ this time around:
- Lots of work aligning Documentation/ABI with reality, done by Aishwarya
    Pant.
 
  - The trace documentation has been converted to RST by Changbin Du
 
  - I thrashed up kernel-doc to deal with a parsing issue and to try to make
    the code more readable.  It's still a 20+-year-old Perl hack, though.
 
  - Lots of other updates, typo fixes, and more.

 -- kselftest_harness.h is now available for general use as a result of

94f4a1618b mm: kmemleak: treat vm_struct as alternative reference to vmalloc'ed objects
Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count
of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object and the other owned by
the vmalloc() caller.  There are cases, however, where the original
vmalloc() returned pointer is lost and, instead, a pointer to vm_struct
is stored (see free_thread_stack()).  Kmemleak currently reports such
objects as leaks.

This patch adds support for treating any surplus references to an object
as additional references to a specified object.  It introduces the
kmemleak_vmalloc() API function which takes a vm_struct pointer and sets
its surplus reference passing to the actual vmalloc() returned pointer.
The __vmalloc_node_range() calling site has been modified accordingly.

821c6df877 kgdb.rst: Adjust ReST markups
The automatic conversion didn't work too well for this file.
It added weird html blocks inside it, and did some weird
things for literals. Manually fix it, in order to present
a nice display at html/pdf outputs.

8a1115ff6b scripts/spelling.txt: add "disble(d)" pattern and fix typo instances
Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt:

  disble||disable
  disbled||disabled

I kept the TSL2563_INT_DISBLED in /drivers/iio/light/tsl2563.c
untouched.  The macro is not referenced at all, but this commit is
touching only comment blocks just in case.

291b9d7368 Improve sparse documentation
Add documentation of -DCONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER.
I started to add documentation of -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ as well, but
discovered I'm too late; that's now enabled by default.
