commit d0afcfeb9e3810ec89d1ffde1a0e36621bb75dca upstream.
A new on by default warning in clang [1] aims to flags instances where
const variables without static or thread local storage or const members
in aggregate types are not initialized because it can lead to an
indeterminate value. This is quite noisy for the kernel due to
instances originating from header files such as:

Silencing the instances from typecheck.h is difficult because '= {}' is
not available in older but supported compilers and '= {0}' would cause
warnings about a literal 0 being treated as NULL. While it might be
possible to come up with a local hack to silence the warning for
clang-21+, it may not be worth it since -Wuninitialized will still
trigger if an uninitialized const variable is actually used.
In all audited cases of the "field" variant of the warning, the members
are either not used in the particular call path, modified through other
means such as memset() / memcpy() because the containing object is not
const, or are within a union with other non-const members.
Since this warning does not appear to have a high signal to noise ratio,
just disable it.

[ Upstream commit e136a4062174a9a8d1c1447ca040ea81accfa6a8 ]
When building the randomized replacement tree of struct members, the
randstruct GCC plugin would insert, as the first member, a 0-sized void
member. This appears as though it was done to catch non-designated
("unnamed") static initializers, which wouldn't be stable since they
depend on the original struct layout order.
This was accomplished by having the side-effect of the "void member"
tripping an assert in GCC internals (count_type_elements) if the member
list ever needed to be counted (e.g. for figuring out the order of members
during a non-designated initialization), which would catch impossible type
(void) in the struct:
security/landlock/fs.c: In function ‘hook_file_ioctl_common’:
security/landlock/fs.c:1745:61: internal compiler error: in count_type_elements, at expr.cc:7075
1745 | .u.op = &(struct lsm_ioctlop_audit) {
| ^
static HOST_WIDE_INT
count_type_elements (const_tree type, bool for_ctor_p)
{
switch (TREE_CODE (type))
...
case VOID_TYPE:
default:
gcc_unreachable ();
}
}
However this is a redundant safety measure since randstruct uses the
__designated_initializer attribute both internally and within the
__randomized_layout attribute macro so that this would be enforced
by the compiler directly even when randstruct was not enabled (via
-Wdesignated-init).
A recent change in Landlock ended up tripping the same member counting
routine when using a full-struct copy initializer as part of an anonymous
initializer. This, however, is a false positive as the initializer is
copying between identical structs (and hence identical layouts). The
"path" member is "struct path", a randomized struct, and is being copied
to from another "struct path", the "f_path" member:
landlock_log_denial(landlock_cred(file->f_cred), &(struct landlock_request) {
.type = LANDLOCK_REQUEST_FS_ACCESS,
.audit = {
.type = LSM_AUDIT_DATA_IOCTL_OP,
.u.op = &(struct lsm_ioctlop_audit) {
.path = file->f_path,
.cmd = cmd,
},
},
...
As can be seen with the coming randstruct KUnit test, there appears to
be no behavioral problems with this kind of initialization when the void
member is removed from the randstruct GCC plugin, so remove it.

The scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh script requires an existing
$INITFILE (or the $1 argument) as a base file for merging Kconfig
fragments. However, an empty $INITFILE can serve as an initial starting
point, later referenced by the KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG Makefile variable
if -m is not used. This variable can point to any configuration file
containing preset config symbols (the merged output) as stated in
Documentation/kbuild/kconfig.rst. When -m is used $INITFILE will
contain just the merge output requiring the user to run make (i.e.
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=<$INITFILE> make <allnoconfig/alldefconfig> or make
olddefconfig).
Instead of failing when `$INITFILE` is missing, create an empty file and
use it as the starting point for merges.

commit 8f6629c004b193d23612641c3607e785819e97ab upstream.
-Wenum-enum-conversion was strengthened in clang-19 to warn for C, which
caused the kernel to move it to W=1 in commit 75b5ab134b ("kbuild:
Move -Wenum-{compare-conditional,enum-conversion} into W=1") because
there were numerous instances that would break builds with -Werror.
Unfortunately, this is not a full solution, as more and more developers,
subsystems, and distributors are building with W=1 as well, so they
continue to see the numerous instances of this warning.
Since the move to W=1, there have not been many new instances that have
appeared through various build reports and the ones that have appeared
seem to be following similar existing patterns, suggesting that most
instances of this warning will not be real issues. The only alternatives
for silencing this warning are adding casts (which is generally seen as
an ugly practice) or refactoring the enums to macro defines or a unified
enum (which may be undesirable because of type safety in other parts of
the code).
Move the warning to W=2, where warnings that occur frequently but may be
relevant should reside.

commit e397a603e49cc7c7c113fad9f55a09637f290c34 upstream.
Replace lz4c with lz4 for kernel image compression.
Although lz4 and lz4c are functionally similar, lz4c has been deprecated
upstream since 2018. Since as early as Ubuntu 16.04 and Fedora 25, lz4
and lz4c have been packaged together, making it safe to update the
requirement from lz4c to lz4.
Consequently, some distributions and build systems, such as OpenEmbedded,
have fully transitioned to using lz4. OpenEmbedded core adopted this
change in commit fe167e082cbd ("bitbake.conf: require lz4 instead of
lz4c"), causing compatibility issues when building the mainline kernel
in the latest OpenEmbedded environment, as seen in the errors below.
This change also updates the LZ4 compression commands to make it backward
compatible by replacing stdin and stdout with the '-' option, due to some
unclear reason, the stdout keyword does not work for lz4 and '-' works for
both. In addition, this modifies the legacy '-c1' with '-9' which is also
compatible with both. This fixes the mainline kernel build failures with
the latest master OpenEmbedded builds associated with the mentioned
compatibility issues.

The memory leaks in Test Case 1 and 2 have existed since the introduction
of genksyms into the kernel tree. [1]
The memory leak in Test Case 3 was introduced by commit 5dae9a550a
("genksyms: allow to ignore symbol checksum changes").
When multiple init_declarators are reduced to an init_declarator_list,
the decl_spec must be duplicated. Otherwise, the following Test Case 4
would result in a double-free bug.

$ cat foo.c
#include <linux/export.h>
extern int foo, bar;
int foo, bar;
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
In this case, 'foo' and 'bar' share the same decl_spec, 'int'. It must

commit 0210d251162f4033350a94a43f95b1c39ec84a90 upstream.
The orc_sort_cmp() function, used with qsort(), previously violated the
symmetry and transitivity rules required by the C standard. Specifically,
when both entries are ORC_TYPE_UNDEFINED, it could result in both a < b
and b < a, which breaks the required symmetry and transitivity. This can
lead to undefined behavior and incorrect sorting results, potentially
causing memory corruption in glibc implementations [1].
Symmetry: If x < y, then y > x.
Transitivity: If x < y and y < z, then x < z.
Fix the comparison logic to return 0 when both entries are
ORC_TYPE_UNDEFINED, ensuring compliance with qsort() requirements.

[ Upstream commit 77dc55a978 ]
When building a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit build host, incorrect
input MODULE_ALIAS() entries may be generated.
For example, when compiling a 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=m
on a 64-bit build machine, you will get the correct output:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*14A,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*145,*r*a*0,*1,*18,*1C,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");
However, building the same kernel on a 32-bit machine results in
incorrect output:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*130,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*14A,*16A,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*145,*165,*r*a*0,*1,*18,*1C,*20,*21,*38,*3C,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*130,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");
A similar issue occurs with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m. On a 64-bit build
machine, the output is:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*2,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*8,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*6,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*120,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*130,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*2C0,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
However, on a 32-bit machine, the output is incorrect:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*20,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*2,*22,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*8,*28,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*6,*26,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*11F,*13F,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*11F,*13F,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*2C0,*2E0,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
When building a 64-bit kernel, BITS_PER_LONG is defined as 64. However,
on a 32-bit build machine, the constant 1L is a signed 32-bit value.
Left-shifting it beyond 32 bits causes wraparound, and shifting by 31
or 63 bits makes it a negative value.
The fix in commit e0e9263271 ("[PATCH] PATCH: 1 line 2.6.18 bugfix:
modpost-64bit-fix.patch") is incorrect; it only addresses cases where
a 64-bit kernel is built on a 64-bit build machine, overlooking cases
on a 32-bit build machine.
Using 1ULL ensures a 64-bit width on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines,
avoiding the wraparound issue.

[ Upstream commit 523f3dbc187a9618d4fd80c2b438e4d490705dcd ]
Contrary to expectations, passing a single candidate tag to "git
describe" is slower than not passing any --match options.
$ time git describe --debug
...
traversed 10619 commits
...
v6.12-rc5-63-g0fc810ae3ae1
real 0m0.169s
$ time git describe --match=v6.12-rc5 --debug
...
traversed 1310024 commits
v6.12-rc5-63-g0fc810ae3ae1
real 0m1.281s
In fact, the --debug output shows that git traverses all or most of
history. For some repositories and/or git versions, those 1.3s are
actually 10-15 seconds.
This has been acknowledged as a performance bug in git [1], and a fix
is on its way [2]. However, no solution is yet in git.git, and even
when one lands, it will take quite a while before it finds its way to
a release and for $random_kernel_developer to pick that up.
So rewrite the logic to use plumbing commands. For each of the
candidate values of $tag, we ask: (1) is $tag even an annotated
tag? (2) Is it eligible to describe HEAD, i.e. an ancestor of
HEAD? (3) If so, how many commits are in $tag..HEAD?
I have tested that this produces the same output as the current script
for ~700 random commits between v6.9..v6.10. For those 700 commits,
and in my git repo, the 'make -s kernelrelease' command is on average
~4 times faster with this patch applied (geometric mean of ratios).
For the commit mentioned in Josh's original report [3], the
time-consuming part of setlocalversion goes from
$ time git describe --match=v6.12-rc5 c1e939a21e

access which has an exception table entry, modpost complains about a
section mismatch:

This function contains multiple bugs after the following commits:
- ac55182899 ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard")
- 6543becf26 ("mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling")
Commit ac55182899 inserted the following code to do_eisa_entry():
else
strcat(alias, "*");
This is incorrect because 'alias' is uninitialized. If it is not
NULL-terminated, strcat() could cause a buffer overrun.
Even if 'alias' happens to be zero-filled, it would output:
MODULE_ALIAS("*");
This would match anything. As a result, the module could be loaded by
any unrelated uevent from an unrelated subsystem.
Commit ac55182899 introduced another bug.
Prior to that commit, the conditional check was:
if (eisa->sig[0])
This checked if the first character of eisa_device_id::sig was not '\0'.
However, commit ac55182899 changed it as follows:
if (sig[0])
sig[0] is NOT the first character of the eisa_device_id::sig. The
type of 'sig' is 'char (*)[8]', meaning that the type of 'sig[0]' is
'char [8]' instead of 'char'. 'sig[0]' and 'symval' refer to the same
address, which never becomes NULL.
The correct conversion would have been:
if ((*sig)[0])
However, this if-conditional was meaningless because the earlier change
in commit ac551828993e was incorrect.
This commit removes the entire incorrect code, which should never have
been executed.

[ Upstream commit d5d6281ae8 ]
This check looks for common words that probably indicate a patch
is a fix. For now the regex is:
(?:(?:BUG: K.|UB)SAN: |Call Trace:|stable\@|syzkaller)/)
Why are stable patches encouraged to have a fixes tag? Some people mark
their stable patches as "# 5.10" etc. This is useful but a Fixes tag is
still a good idea. For example, the Fixes tag helps in review. It
helps people to not cherry-pick buggy patches without also
cherry-picking the fix.
Also if a bug affects the 5.7 kernel some people will round it up to
5.10+ because 5.7 is not supported on kernel.org. It's possible the Bad
Binder bug was caused by this sort of gap where companies outside of
kernel.org are supporting different kernels from kernel.org.
Should it be counted as a Fix when a patch just silences harmless
WARN_ON() stack trace. Yes. Definitely.
Is silencing compiler warnings a fix? It seems unfair to the original
authors, but we use -Werror now, and warnings break the build so let's
just add Fixes tags. I tell people that silencing static checker
warnings is not a fix but the rules on this vary by subsystem.
Is fixing a minor LTP issue (Linux Test Project) a fix? Probably? It's
hard to know what to do if the LTP test has technically always been
broken.
One clear false positive from this check is when someone updated their
debug output and included before and after Call Traces. Or when crashes
are introduced deliberately for testing. In those cases, you should
just ignore checkpatch.
