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 e0e92632715f ("[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.

When CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM=m, modpost outputs incorect acpi
MODULE_ALIAS() if the endianness of the target and the build machine
do not match.

When the endianness of the target kernel and the build machine match,
the output is correct:

  $ grep 'MODULE_ALIAS("acpi' drivers/ata/ahci_platform.mod.c
  MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:APMC0D33:*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:010601:*");

However, when building a little-endian kernel on a big-endian machine
(or vice versa), the output is incorrect:

  $ grep 'MODULE_ALIAS("acpi' drivers/ata/ahci_platform.mod.c
  MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:APMC0D33:*");
  MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:0601??:*");

The 'cls' and 'cls_msk' fields are 32-bit.

DEF_FIELD() must be used instead of DEF_FIELD_ADDR() to correctly handle
endianness of these 32-bit fields.

The check 'if (cls)' was unnecessary; it never became NULL, as it was
the pointer to 'symval' plus the offset to the 'cls' field.

<id>urn:sha1:d01661e1f422f071279417c6a21d9d7989844d25</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit f79dc03fe68c ("kconfig: refactor choice value
calculation"), when EXPERT is disabled, nothing within the "if INPUT"
... "endif" block in drivers/input/Kconfig is displayed. This issue
affects all command-line interfaces and GUI frontends.

The prompt for INPUT is hidden when EXPERT is disabled. Previously,
menu_is_visible() returned true in this case; however, it now returns
false, resulting in all sub-menu entries being skipped.

Here is a simplified test case illustrating the issue:

    config A
           bool "A" if X
           default y

    config B
           bool "B"
           depends on A

When X is disabled, A becomes unconfigurable and is forced to y.
B should be displayed, as its dependency is met.

This commit restores the necessary code, so menu_is_visible() functions
as it did previously.

The Debian kernel supports the pkg.linux.nokerneldbg build profile.

The debug package tends to become huge, and you may not want to build
it even when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is enabled.

This commit introduces a similar profile for the upstream kernel.

Since commit f1d87664b82a ("kbuild: cross-compile linux-headers package
when possible"), 'make bindeb-pkg' may attempt to cross-compile the
linux-headers package, but it fails under certain circumstances.

For example, when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is enabled on Debian, the
following command fails:

  $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bindeb-pkg
      [ snip ]

        |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.

This commit adds a new profile, pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders, to
guard the linux-headers package.

There are two options to fix the above issue.

Option 1: Set the pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders build profile

  $ DEB_BUILD_PROFILES=pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders \
    make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bindeb-pkg

This skips the building of the linux-headers package.

Option 2: Install the necessary build dependencies

If you want to cross-compile the linux-headers package, you need to
install additional packages.

For example, on Debian, the packages necessary for cross-compiling it
to arm64 can be installed with the following commands:

  # dpkg --add-architecture arm64
  # apt update
  # apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu libssl-dev:arm64

Since commit f1d87664b82a ("kbuild: cross-compile linux-headers package
when possible"), 'make binrpm-pkg' may attempt to cross-compile the
kernel-devel package, but it fails under certain circumstances.

For example, when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is enabled on openSUSE
Tumbleweed, the following command fails:

  $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-suse-linux- binrpm-pkg
      [ snip ]

     25 | #include &lt;openssl/opensslv.h&gt;
        |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.

I believe this issue is less common on Fedora because the disto's cross-
compilier cannot link user-space programs. Hence, CONFIG_CC_CAN_LINK is
unset.

On Fedora 40, the package information explains this limitation clearly:

  $ dnf info gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu
      [ snip ]
  Description  : Cross-build GNU C compiler.
               :
               : Only building kernels is currently supported.  Support for cross-building
               : user space programs is not currently provided as that would massively multiply
               : the number of packages.

Anyway, cross-compiling RPM packages is somewhat challenging.

This commit disables the kernel-devel package when cross-compiling
because I did not come up with a better solution.

<title>kbuild: rust: avoid errors with old `rustc`s without LLVM patch version</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c38a04ecb6ac25c0c8786b5c5bfa4724ee483d67</id>
<content type='text'>
Some old versions of `rustc` did not report the LLVM version without
the patch version, e.g.:

    $ rustc --version --verbose
    rustc 1.48.0 (7eac88abb 2020-11-16)
    binary: rustc
    commit-hash: 7eac88abb2e57e752f3302f02be5f3ce3d7adfb4
    commit-date: 2020-11-16
    host: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
    release: 1.48.0
    LLVM version: 11.0

Which would make the new `scripts/rustc-llvm-version.sh` fail and,
in turn, the build:

    $ make LLVM=1
      SYNC    include/config/auto.conf.cmd
    ./scripts/rustc-llvm-version.sh: 13: arithmetic expression: expecting primary: "10000 * 10 + 100 * 0 + "
    init/Kconfig:83: syntax error
    init/Kconfig:83: invalid statement
    make[3]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile:85: syncconfig] Error 1
    make[2]: *** [Makefile:679: syncconfig] Error 2
    make[1]: *** [/home/cam/linux/Makefile:780: include/config/auto.conf.cmd] Error 2
    make: *** [Makefile:224: __sub-make] Error 2

Since we do not need to support such binaries, we can avoid adding logic
for computing `rustc`'s LLVM version for those old binaries.

Thus, instead, just make the match stricter.

Other `rustc` binaries (even newer) did not report the LLVM version at
all, but that was fine, since it would not match "LLVM", e.g.:

    $ rustc --version --verbose
    rustc 1.49.0 (e1884a8e3 2020-12-29)
    binary: rustc
    commit-hash: e1884a8e3c3e813aada8254edfa120e85bf5ffca

Each version of Rust supports a range of LLVM versions. There are cases where
we want to gate a config on the LLVM version instead of the Rust version.
Normalized cfi integer tags are one example [1].

The invocation of rustc-version is being moved from init/Kconfig to
scripts/Kconfig.include for consistency with cc-version.
