With recent trunk versions of binutils and gcc, alignment directives are
represented with R_LARCH_ALIGN relocs on LoongArch, which is necessary
for the linker to maintain alignment requirements during its relaxation
passes. And even though the kernel is built with relaxation disabled, so
far a small number of R_LARCH_RELAX marker relocs are still emitted as
part of la.* pseudo instructions in assembly. These two kinds of relocs
do not refer to symbols, which can trip up modpost's section mismatch
checks, because the r_offset of said relocs can be zero or any other
meaningless value, eventually leading to a `from == NULL` condition in
default_mismatch_handler and SIGSEGV.
As the two kinds of relocs are not concerned with symbols, just ignore
them for section mismatch check purposes.

The section mismatch check prints a bogus symbol name on some
architectures.
[test code]
#include <linux/init.h>
int __initdata foo;
int get_foo(void) { return foo; }
If you compile it with GCC for riscv or loongarch, modpost will show an
incorrect symbol name:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: get_foo+0x8 (section: .text) -> done (section: .init.data)
To get the correct symbol address, the st_value must be added.
This issue has never been noticed since commit 93684d3b80 ("kbuild:
include symbol names in section mismatch warnings") presumably because
st_value becomes zero on most architectures when the referenced symbol
is looked up. It is not true for riscv or loongarch, at least.
With this fix, modpost will show the correct symbol name:

Here is the big set of staging driver updates for 6.7-rc1. A bit bigger
than 6.6 this time around, as it coincided with the Outreachy and
mentorship application process, so we got a bunch of new developers
sending in their first changes, which is nice to see.
Also in here is a removal of the qlge ethernet driver, and the rtl8192u
wireless driver. Both of these were very old and no one was maintaining
them, the wireless driver removal was due to no one using it anymore,
and no hardware to be found, and is part of a larger effort to remove
unused and old wifi drivers from the system.
The qlge ethernet driver did have one user pop up after it was dropped,
and we are working with the network mainainers to figure out what tree
it will come back in from and who will be responsible for it, and if it
really is being used or not. Odds are it will show up in a network
subsystem pull request after -rc1 is out, but we aren't sure yet.
Other smaller changes in here are:
- Lots of vc04_services work by Umang to clean up the mess created by
the rpi developers long ago, bringing it almost into good enough
shape to get out of staging, hopefully next major release, it's
getting close.
- rtl8192e variable cleanups and removal of unused code and structures
- vme_user coding style cleanups
- other small coding style cleanups to lots of the staging drivers
- octeon typedef removals, and then last-minute revert when it was
found to break the build in some configurations (it's a hard driver
to build properly, none of the normal automated testing catches it.)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

Drivers must not reference .meminit* sections, which are discarded

VC04 has now a independent bus vchiq_bus to register its devices.
However, the module auto-loading for bcm2835-audio and bcm2835-camera
currently happens through MODULE_ALIAS() macro specified explicitly.
The correct way to auto-load a module, is when the alias is picked
out from MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). In order to get there, we need to
introduce vchiq_device_id and add relevant entries in file2alias.c
infrastructure so that aliases can be generated. This patch targets
adding vchiq_device_id and do_vchiq_entry, in order to
generate those alias using the /script/mod/file2alias.c.
Going forward the MODULE_ALIAS() from bcm2835-camera and bcm2835-audio
will be dropped, in favour of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE being used there.
The alias format for vchiq_bus devices will be "vchiq:<dev_name>".
Adjust the vchiq_bus_uevent() to reflect that.

When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(ishtp, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().
For example, see a case where drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.c
is built as a module for x86.
If you build it on a little-endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{6A19CC4B-D760-4DE3-B14D-F25EBD0FBCD9}");
However, if you build it on a big-endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{BD0FBCD9-F25E-B14D-4DE3-D7606A19CC4B}");
This issue has been unnoticed because the x86 kernel is most likely built
natively on an x86 host.
The guid field must not be reversed because guid_t is an array of __u8.

When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(tee, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().
For example, see a case where drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.c
is built as a module for ARM little-endian.
If you build it on a little-endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("tee:ab7a617c-b8e7-4d8f-8301-d09b61036b64*");
However, if you build it on a big-endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("tee:646b0361-9bd0-0183-8f4d-e7b87c617aab*");
The same problem also occurs when you enable CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN,
and build it on a little-endian host.
This issue has been unnoticed because the ARM kernel is configured for
little-endian by default, and most likely built on a little-endian host
(cross-build on x86 or native-build on ARM).
The uuid field must not be reversed because uuid_t is an array of __u8.

Drivers must not reference functions marked with __exit as these likely
are not available when the code is built-in.
There are few creative offenders uncovered for example in ARCH=amd64
allmodconfig builds. So only trigger the section mismatch warning for
W=1 builds.
The dual rule that drivers must not reference .init.* is implemented
since commit 0db2524523 ("modpost: don't allow *driver to reference
.init.*") which however missed that .exit.* should be handled in the
same way.

Without this 'else' statement, an "usb" name goes into two handlers:
the first/previous 'if' statement _AND_ the for-loop over 'devtable',
but the latter is useless as it has no 'usb' device_id entry anyway.

.llvm.call-graph-profile section is added by clang when the kernel is
built with profiles (e.g. -fprofile-sample-use= or -fprofile-use=).
Note that .llvm.call-graph-profile intentionally uses REL relocations
to decrease the object size, for more details see
https://reviews.llvm.org/D104080.
The section contains edge information derived from text sections,
so .llvm.call-graph-profile itself doesn't need more analysis as
the text sections have been analyzed.
This change fixes the kernel build with clang and a sample profile
which currently fails with:

Now that modpost can make a final decision about export symbols,
<linux/export.h> does not need to make EXPORT_SYMBOL() no-op.

When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses
the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an
EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the
second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their
EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op.
Linus stated negative opinions about this slowness in commits:
- 5cf0fd591f ("Kbuild: disable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option")
- a555bdd0c5 ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some guarding")
We can do this better now. The final data structures of EXPORT_SYMBOL
are generated by the modpost stage, so modpost can selectively emit
KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules.
Commit f73edc8951 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") is another
ground-work to do this in a one-pass algorithm. With the list of modules,
modpost sets sym->used if it is used by a module. modpost emits KSYMTAB
only for symbols with sym->used==true.
BTW, Nicolas explained why the trimming was implemented with recursion:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/2o2rpn97-79nq-p7s2-nq5-8p83391473r@syhkavp.arg/
Actually, we never achieved that level of optimization where the chain
reaction of trimming comes into play because:
- CONFIG_LTO_CLANG cannot remove any unused symbols
- CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is enabled only for vmlinux,
but not modules
If deeper trimming is required, we need to revisit this, but I guess
that is unlikely to happen.
