Commit 579aee9fc594 ("powerpc: suppress some linker warnings in recent linker versions")
enabled support to add linker option "--no-warn-rwx-segments",
if the version is greater than 2.39. Similar build warning were
reported recently from linker version 2.35.2.
ld: warning: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.epapr has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
ld: warning: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
Fix the warning by checking for "--no-warn-rwx-segments"
option support in linker to enable it, instead of checking
for the version range.

Commit 3d45a3d0d2e6 ("powerpc: Define config option for processors with broadcast TLBIE")
added a config option PPC_RADIX_BROADCAST_TLBIE to support processors with
broadcast TLBIE. Since this option is relevant only for RADIX_MMU, add
a check as a dependency to enable PPC_RADIX_BROADCAST_TLBIE in both
powernv and pseries configs. This fixes the unmet config dependency
warning reported

get_stubs_size assumes that there must always be at least one patchable
function entry, which is not always the case (modules that export data
but no code), otherwise it returns -ENOEXEC and thus the section header
sh_size is set to that value. During module_memory_alloc() the size is
passed to execmem_alloc() after being page-aligned and thus set to zero
which will cause it to fail the allocation (and thus module loading) as
__vmalloc_node_range() checks for zero-sized allocs and returns null:

A vmemmap altmap is a device-provided region used to provide
backing storage for struct pages. For each namespace, the altmap
should belong to that same namespace. If the namespaces are
created unaligned, there is a chance that the section vmemmap
start address could also be unaligned. If the section vmemmap
start address is unaligned, the altmap page allocated from the
current namespace might be used by the previous namespace also.
During the free operation, since the altmap is shared between two
namespaces, the previous namespace may detect that the page does
not belong to its altmap and incorrectly assume that the page is a
normal page. It then attempts to free the normal page, which leads
to a kernel crash.

Another issue is that if there is no altmap, a PMD-sized vmemmap
page will be allocated from RAM, regardless of the alignment of
the section start address. If the section start address is not
aligned to the PMD size, a VM_BUG_ON will be triggered when
setting the PMD-sized page to page table.
In this patch, we are aligning the section vmemmap start address
to PAGE_SIZE. After alignment, the start address will not be
part of the current namespace, and a normal page will be allocated
for the vmemmap mapping of the current section. For the remaining
sections, altmaps will be allocated. During the free operation,
the normal page will be correctly freed.
In the same way, a PMD_SIZE vmemmap page will be allocated only if
the section start address is PMD_SIZE-aligned; otherwise, it will
fall back to a PAGE-sized vmemmap allocation.
Without this patch
==================
NS1 start NS2 start
_________________________________________________________
| NS1 | NS2 |
---------------------------------------------------------
| Altmap| Altmap | .....|Altmap| Altmap | ...........
| NS1 | NS1 | | NS2 | NS2 |
In the above scenario, NS1 and NS2 are two namespaces. The vmemmap
for NS1 comes from Altmap NS1, which belongs to NS1, and the
vmemmap for NS2 comes from Altmap NS2, which belongs to NS2.
The vmemmap start for NS2 is not aligned, so Altmap NS2 is shared
by both NS1 and NS2. During the free operation in NS1, Altmap NS2
is not part of NS1's altmap, causing it to attempt to free an
invalid page.
With this patch
===============
NS1 start NS2 start
_________________________________________________________
| NS1 | NS2 |
---------------------------------------------------------
| Altmap| Altmap | .....| Normal | Altmap | Altmap |.......
| NS1 | NS1 | | Page | NS2 | NS2 |
If the vmemmap start for NS2 is not aligned then we are allocating
a normal page. NS1 and NS2 vmemmap will be freed correctly.

The following loop is located right above 'if' statement.
for (i = count-1; i >= 0; i--) {
/* is more than half of this entry in 2nd half of the block? */
if (size + map[i].size/2 > blocksize/2)
break;
size += map[i].size;
move++;
}
'i' in this case could go down to -1, in which case sum of active entries
wouldn't exceed half the block size, but previous behaviour would also do
split in half if sum would exceed at the very last block, which in case of
having too many long name files in a single block could lead to
out-of-bounds access and following use-after-free.

Block validity checks need to be skipped in case they are called
for journal blocks since they are part of system's protected
zone.
Currently, this is done by checking inode->ino against
sbi->s_es->s_journal_inum, which is a direct read from the ext4 sb
buffer head. If someone modifies this underneath us then the
s_journal_inum field might get corrupted. To prevent against this,
change the check to directly compare the inode with journal->j_inode.
**Slight change in behavior**: During journal init path,
check_block_validity etc might be called for journal inode when
sbi->s_journal is not set yet. In this case we now proceed with
ext4_inode_block_valid() instead of returning early. Since systems zones
have not been set yet, it is okay to proceed so we can perform basic
checks on the blocks.

is known at compile-time, and refactor the rest of the code,
accordingly.

The retval and retaddr options for function_graph tracer will add a
comment at the end of a function for both leaf and non leaf functions that
looks like:
__wake_up_common(); /* ret=0x1 */
} /* pick_next_task_fair ret=0x0 */
The function print_graph_retval() adds a newline after the "*/". But if
that's not called, the caller function needs to make sure there's a
newline added.
This is confusing and when the function parameters code was added, it
added a newline even when calling print_graph_retval() as the fact that
the print_graph_retval() function prints a newline isn't obvious.
This caused an extra newline to be printed and that made it fail the
selftests when the retval option was set, as the selftests were not
expecting blank lines being injected into the trace.
Instead of having print_graph_retval() print a newline, just have the
caller always print the newline regardless if it calls print_graph_retval()
or not. This not only fixes this bug, but it also simplifies the code.
