"The biggest highlight here is the start of using json-schema for DT

- Initial support for DT bindings using json-schema language. This is
the start of converting DT bindings from free-form text to a
structured format.
- Reworking of initrd address initialization. This moves to using the
phys address instead of virt addr in the DT parsing code. This
rework was motivated by CONFIG_DEV_BLK_INITRD causing unnecessary
rebuilding of lots of files.
- Fix stale phandle entries in phandle cache
- DT overlay validation improvements. This exposed several memory
leak bugs which have been fixed.
- Use node name and device_type helper functions in DT code

Add a script that will run spdxcheck.py through a couple of self tests to
simplify validation in the future. The tests are run for both Python 2
and Python 3 to make sure all changes to the script remain compatible
across both versions.
The script tests a regular text file (Makefile) for basic sanity checks
and then runs it on a binary file (Documentation/logo.gif) to make sure it
works in both cases. It also tests opening files passed on the command
line as well as piped files read from standard input. Finally a run on
the complete tree will be performed to catch any other potential issues.

When running decodecode natively on arm64, ARCH is likely not to be set,
and we end-up with .4byte instead of .inst when generating the
disassembly.
Similar effects would occur if running natively on a 32bit ARM platform,
although that's even less popular.
A simple workaround is to populate ARCH when it is not set and that we're
running on an arm/arm64 system.

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic KASAN mode (the one
that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, that enables the software tag-based KASAN mode.
The name CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is chosen as in the future we will have
another hardware tag-based KASAN mode, that will rely on hardware memory
tagging support in arm64.
With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS enabled, compiler options are changed to
instrument kernel files with -fsantize=kernel-hwaddress (except the ones
for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).
Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS support both
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.
This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of
tag-based KASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts
common hooks implementation.
While this commit adds the CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS config option, this option
is not selectable, as it depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS, which we will
enable once all the infrastracture code has been added.

The spdxcheck script currently falls over when confronted with a binary
file (such as Documentation/logo.gif). To avoid that, always open files
in binary mode and decode line-by-line, ignoring encoding errors.
One tricky case is when piping data into the script and reading it from
standard input. By default, standard input will be opened in text mode,
so we need to reopen it in binary mode.
The breakage only happens with python3 and results in a
UnicodeDecodeError (according to Uwe).

Right now, checkstack.pl isn't able to print anything on aarch64,

This adds the build infrastructure for checking DT binding schema
documents and validating dts files using the binding schema.
Check DT binding schema documents:
make dt_binding_check
Build dts files and check using DT binding schema:
make dtbs_check
Optionally, DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be passed in with a schema file(s) to
use for validation. This makes it easier to find and fix errors
generated by a specific schema.
Currently, the validation targets are separate from a normal build to
avoid a hard dependency on the external DT schema project and because
there are lots of warnings generated.

On ARM, we currently only change the value of the stack canary when
switching tasks if the kernel was built for UP. On SMP kernels, this
is impossible since the stack canary value is obtained via a global
symbol reference, which means
a) all running tasks on all CPUs must use the same value
b) we can only modify the value when no kernel stack frames are live
on any CPU, which is effectively never.
So instead, use a GCC plugin to add a RTL pass that replaces each
reference to the address of the __stack_chk_guard symbol with an
expression that produces the address of the 'stack_canary' field
that is added to struct thread_info. This way, each task will use
its own randomized value.

Currently the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass deleting a CALL insn is executed
after the 'reload' pass. That allows gcc to do some weird optimization in
function prologues and epilogues, which are generated later [1].
Let's avoid that by registering the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass before
the '*free_cfg' pass. It's the moment when the stack frame size is
already final, function prologues and epilogues are generated, and the
machine-dependent code transformations are not done.

enables the migitation for sandboxed processes.
- Rework the code to handle the conditional STIBP/IBPB control and
remove the now unused ptrace_may_access_sched() optimization
attempt
- Disable STIBP automatically when SMT is disabled
- Optimize the switch_to() logic to avoid MSR writes and invocations
of __switch_to_xtra().
- Make the asynchronous speculation TIF updates synchronous to
prevent stale mitigation state.

The kernel-doc attempts to clear the struct and struct member attributes
from the API documentation it produces. It falls short of the job in the
following respects:
- extra whitespaces are left where __attribute__((...)) was removed,
- only a single attribute is removed per struct,
- attributes (such as aligned) containing numbers were not removed,
- attributes are only cleared from struct fields, not structs themselves.
This patch addresses these issues by removing the attributes.

Commit 37c8a5fafa ("kbuild: consolidate Devicetree dtb build rules")
moved the location of 'dtbs_install' target which caused dtbs to not be
installed when building debian package with 'bindeb-pkg' target. Update
the builddeb script to use the same logic that determines if there's a
'dtbs_install' target which is presence of the arch dts directory. Also,
use CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE instead of CONFIG_OF as that's a better
indication of whether we are building dtbs.
This commit will also have the side effect of installing dtbs on any
arch that has dts files. Previously, it was dependent on whether the
arch defined 'dtbs_install'.

This reverts commit 6147b1cf19.
The reverted patch results in attempted write access to the source
repository, even if that repository is mounted read-only.
Output from "strace git status -uno --porcelain":
getcwd("/tmp/linux-test", 129) = 16
open("/tmp/linux-test/.git/index.lock", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) =
-1 EROFS (Read-only file system)
While git appears to be able to handle this situation, a monitored
build environment (such as the one used for Chrome OS kernel builds)
may detect it and bail out with an access violation error. On top of
that, the attempted write access suggests that git _will_ write to the
file even if a build output directory is specified. Users may have the
reasonable expectation that the source repository remains untouched in
that situation.

Since commit b41d920acf ("kbuild: deb-pkg: split generating packaging
and build"), the build version of the kernel contained in a deb package
is too low by 1.
Prior to the bad commit, the kernel was built first, then the number
in .version file was read out, and written into the debian control file.
Now, the debian control file is created before the kernel is actually
compiled, which is causing the version number mismatch.
Let the mkdebian script pass KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION=${revision} to require
the build system to use the specified version number.

This is an effort to disentangle the include/linux/compiler*.h headers
and bring them up to date.
The main idea behind the series is to use feature checking macros
(i.e. __has_attribute) instead of compiler version checks (e.g. GCC_VERSION),
which are compiler-agnostic (so they can be shared, reducing the size
of compiler-specific headers) and version-agnostic.
Other related improvements have been performed in the headers as well,
which on top of the use of __has_attribute it has amounted to a significant
simplification of these headers (e.g. GCC_VERSION is now only guarding
a few non-attribute macros).
This series should also help the efforts to support compiling the kernel
with clang and icc. A fair amount of documentation and comments have also
been added, clarified or removed; and the headers are now more readable,
which should help kernel developers in general.
The series was triggered due to the move to gcc >= 4.6. In turn, this series
has also triggered Sparse to gain the ability to recognize __has_attribute
on its own.
Finally, the __nonstring variable attribute series has been also applied
on top; plus two related patches from Nick Desaulniers for unreachable()
that came a bit afterwards.

- Uninitialized stack usage. (We continue to work on improving the

proposed to GCC and Clang, and more plugin work has started too).
- Stack content exposure. By greatly reducing the lifetime of valid
stack contents, exposures via either direct read bugs or unknown
cache side-channels become much more difficult to exploit. This
complements the existing buddy and heap poisoning options, but
provides the coverage for stacks.
The x86 hooks are included in this series (which have been reviewed by
Ingo, Dave Hansen, and Thomas Gleixner). The arm64 hooks have already
been merged through the arm64 tree (written by Laura Abbott and
reviewed by Mark Rutland and Will Deacon).
With VLAs having been removed this release, there is no need for
alloca() protection, so it has been removed from the plugin"
