ARC relocatable object files contain one/more .gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.*
sections (collated by kernel/vmlinux.lds into .arcextmap in final link).
This section is used by debuggers to display the extension instructions
and need-not be loaded by target (hence !SHF_ALLOC)
The final kernel binary only needs .arcextmap entry in modpost's ignore
list (section_white_list[]). However when building modules, modpost scans
each object file individually, hence tripping on non-aggregated
.gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.* entries as well.
Thus need for the 2 entires !

The modaliases look like ipack:fXvNdM, where X is the format version (8
bit) and N and M are the vendor and device ID represented as 32 bit
hexadecimal numbers each. Using 32 bits allows us to define IPACK_ANY_ID
as (~0) without interfering with the valid ids.
The resulting modalias string for ipoctal.ko looks like this (once
ipoctal provides a device table):
alias: ipack:f01v000000F0d00000048*
alias: ipack:f01v000000F0d0000002A*

Functions used for PCI fixups (like DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER) are often
marked __init. This is okay as long as nobody is using PCI hotplug.
However if one does execute
| echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan
and we hit a module which is marked __init istead of __devinit then we
go boom because the code is removed after the kernel booted. This patch
help to see those section mismatches.

Some composite USB devices provide multiple interfaces
with different functions, all using "vendor-specific"
for class/subclass/protocol. Another OS use interface
numbers to match the driver and interface. It seems
these devices are designed with that in mind - using
static interface numbers for the different functions.
This adds support for matching against the
bInterfaceNumber, allowing such devices to be supported
without having to resort to testing against interface
number whitelists and/or blacklists in the probe.

HID devices are only partially presented to userland. Hotplugged
devices emit events containing a modalias based on the basic bus,
vendor and product entities. However, in practise a hid device can
depend on details such as a single usb interface or a particular item
in a report descriptor.
This patch adds a device group to the hid device id, and broadcasts it
using uevent and the device modalias. The module alias generation is
modified to match. As a consequence, a device with a non-zero group
will be processed by the corresponding group driver instead of by the
generic hid driver.

The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names
like:
_GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table
They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18. This
matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the
length did not meet the device type's criteria.
--------------------
FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18.
Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h

These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and
not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table

Commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols
placing each of them in its own elf section. This sorting and merging
into the canonical sections are done by the linker.
Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o
(which is not linked yet) and all modules object files (which aren't
linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks
modpost that can't detect license properly for modules.
This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure.
[ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the
problem, copied from commit 62a2635610db ("modpost: Fix modpost's

It turns out that many compilers don't show section warnings on ARM
currently because handling for ARM_CALL relocs are missing from
modpost.c.
Based on commit c2e26114 ([ARM] 3205/1: Handle new EABI relocations when
loading kernel modules) it seems that R_ARM_PC24, R_ARM_CALL and
R_ARM_JUMP24 can be handled the same way.
Note that at least Debian libc6-dev is missing defines for both
R_ARM_CALL and R_ARM_JUMP24 in /usr/include/elf.h. So for now
we need to define them in modpost.c if not defined.

We currently include commas on both sides of the feature ID in a
modalias, but this prevents the lowest numbered feature of a CPU from
being matched. Since all feature IDs have the same length, we do not
need to worry about substring matches, so omit commas from the
modalias entirely.
Avoid generating multiple adjacent wildcards when there is no
feature ID to match.

There's a growing number of drivers that support a specific x86 feature
or CPU. Currently loading these drivers currently on a generic
distribution requires various driver specific hacks and it often
doesn't work.
This patch adds auto probing for drivers based on the x86 cpuid
information, in particular based on vendor/family/model number
and also based on CPUID feature bits.
For example a common issue is not loading the SSE 4.2 accelerated
CRC module: this can significantly lower the performance of BTRFS
which relies on fast CRC.
Another issue is loading the right CPUFREQ driver for the current CPU.
Currently distributions often try all all possible driver until
one sticks, which is not really a good way to do this.
It works with existing udev without any changes. The code
exports the x86 information as a generic string in sysfs
that can be matched by udev's pattern matching.
This scheme does not support numeric ranges, so if you want to
handle e.g. ranges of model numbers they have to be encoded
in ASCII or simply all models or families listed. Fixing
that would require changing udev.
Another issue is that udev will happily load all drivers that match,
there is currently no nice way to stop a specific driver from
being loaded if it's not needed (e.g. if you don't need fast CRC)
But there are not that many cpu specific drivers around and they're
all not that bloated, so this isn't a particularly serious issue.
Originally this patch added the modalias to the normal cpu
sysdevs. However sysdevs don't have all the infrastructure
needed for udev, so it couldn't really autoload drivers.
This patch instead adds the CPU modaliases to the cpuid devices,
which are real devices with full support for udev. This implies
that the cpuid driver has to be loaded to use this.
This patch just adds infrastructure, some driver conversions
in followups.
Thanks to Kay for helping with some sysfs magic.
v2: Constifcation, some updates
v4: (trenn@suse.de):
- Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc to terminate modalias buffer

This reverts commit 5dd7bf59e0e8563265b3e5b33276099ef628fcc7.
Conflicts:
scripts/mod/file2alias.c
This change is wrong on many levels. First and foremost, it causes a
regression. On boot on Assabet, which this patch gives a codec id of
'ucb1x00', it gives:
ucb1x00 ID not found: 1005
0x1005 is a valid ID for the UCB1300 device.
Secondly, this patch is way over the top in terms of complexity. The
only device which has been seen to be connected with this MCP code is
the UCB1x00 (UCB1200, UCB1300 etc) devices, and they all use the same
driver. Adding a match table, requiring the codec string to match the
hardware ID read out of the ID register, etc is completely over the top
when we can just read the hardware ID register.

This patch adds the necessary support in file2alias.c to define
suitable aliases based on the amba_id table in AMBA driver modules.
This should be sufficient to allow such modules to be auto-loaded
via udev. The AMBA bus driver's uevent hotplug code is also
modified to pass an approriate MODALIAS string in the event.
For simplicity, the AMBA ID is treated an an opaque 32-bit numeber.
Module alises use patterns as appropriate to describe the value-
mask pairs described in the driver's amba_id list.
The proposed alias format is (extended regex):
^amba:d(HEX){8}$
Where HEX is a single upper-case HEX digit or a pattern (? or []
expression) matching a single upper-case HEX digit, as expected by
udev.
"d" is short for "device", following existing alias naming
conventions for other device types. This adds some flexibility for
unambiguously extending the alias format in the future by adding
additional leading and trailing fields, if this turns out to be
necessary.

When I added the driver_data field to hv_vmbus_device_id, I forgot to
take into the account how the alias was created, so it would append the
kernel pointer to the end of the alias, which is not correct.
This changes how the hv_vmbus_device_id alias is created to proper
account for the driver_data field. As no module yet uses this alias, it

The commit f02e8a6 sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section.
The sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker.
Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux
(already linked) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet).
These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't
detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of
the new exported symbols structure.
Thanks to Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar@gmail.com> and Anders Kaseorg
<andersk@ksplice.com> for providing useful suggestions about code.

Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it
writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance
with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools.
Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE
and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through
SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the
st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are
stored. See:

Broadcom has released cards based on a new AMBA-based bus type. From a
programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does
not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We
decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean.
In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and
registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for
specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver
itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core
driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct
initialization.
Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however
the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host
abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e).
Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to
80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still
optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later
without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO
used for accessing cores on the bus.

fixdep: Do not record dependency on the source file itself
changed the format of the *.cmd files without realizing that it is also
used by modpost. Put the path to the source file to the file back, in a
special variable, so that modpost sees all source files when calculating
srcversion for modules.

This patch fixes a segfault in modpost that is observed when the gold
linker is used to link the input objects.
The problem is that reloc_location (modpost.c) is computing the
address of the relocation target incorrectly. Here, elf->hdr points
to the beginning of the ELF file in memory, sechdr points to the
relocation section header, section is the index of the section
being relocated, and sechdrs[section].sh_offset would be the offset
of that section, relative to the beginning of the ELF file. Adding
elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset gives you the address of the
beginning of the section, and adding r->r_offset to that gives you the
address of the location to be relocated. You do not need to subtract
sechdrs[section].sh_addr from that -- the result of this is an address
outside the file, and causes the segfault when addend_386_rel tries to
dereference it.
This bug is not observed when GNU ld is used to link the inputs. The
object file ubuntu/omnibook/omnibook.o is the result of an ld -r of
several other files. When GNU ld does an ld -r, it sets the vaddr
field for each section to 0, but gold lays out the section addresses
sequentially instead:
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al
[ 0] NULL 00000000 000000 000000 00 0 0 0
[ 1] .text PROGBITS 00000000 000034 004794 00 AX 0 0 4
[ 2] .data PROGBITS 0000b9d0 0047c8 0009c0 00 WA 0 0 4
[ 3] .bss NOBITS 000162f8 005188 00013c 00 WA 0 0 4
[ 4] .rodata.str1.1 PROGBITS 00004f2d 0052c4 001b1a 01 AMS 0 0 1
[ 5] .init.text PROGBITS 00004794 006dde 0005fa 00 AX 0 0 1
[ 6] .exit.text PROGBITS 00004d8e 0073d8 00018a 00 AX 0 0 1
...
So the bug in the tool remained undiscovered because the section's vaddr
always happened to be 0.
