Add a user-space selftest of x86 instruction decoder at kernel build time. When CONFIG_X86_DECODER_SELFTEST=y, Kbuild builds a test harness of x86 instruction decoder and performs it after building vmlinux. The test compares the results of objdump and x86 instruction decoder code and check there are no differences.

General description: kmemcheck is a patch to the linux kernel that detects use of uninitialized memory. It does this by trapping every read and write to memory that was allocated dynamically (e.g. using kmalloc()). If a memory address is read that has not previously been written to, a message is printed to the kernel log. Thanks to Andi Kleen for the set_memory_4k() solution. Andrew Morton suggested documenting the shadow member of struct page.

It is common to use "make install" in restricted environments which differ from the one which was actually used to build the kernel. In such environments it is highly undesirable to trigger a rebuild of any part of the system. Worse, the rebuild may be spurious, triggered by differences in the environment. Signed-off-by: H.

Impact: no default -fno-stack-protector if stackp is enabled, cleanup Stackprotector make rules had the following problems. * cc support test and warning are scattered across makefile and kernel/panic.c. * -fno-stack-protector was always added regardless of configuration. Update such that cc support test and warning are contained in makefile and -fno-stack-protector is added iff stackp is turned off. While at it, prepare for 32bit support.

If the user selects the stack-protector config option, but does not have a gcc that has the right bits enabled (for example because it isn't build with a glibc that supports TLS, as is common for cross-compilers, but also because it may be too old), then the runtime test fails right now. This patch adds a warning message for this scenario. This warning accomplishes two goals 1) the user is informed that the security option he selective isn't available 2) the user is suggested to turn of the CONFIG option that won't work for him, and would make the runtime test fail anyway.

Unify the 32 and 64 bit specific Makefiles. The unification was simplest to do in one step although the readability of the patch suffers a bit from this. Noteworthy remarks on the unification: - The 64 bit cpu stuff should be moved to Makefile_32.cpu but I did not feel confident doing it due to subtle differences - The use of cflags-y were abandoned since we have seen one bug where we did wrong due to missing assignment to KBUILD_CFLAGS. The cc-option marcro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS. - The "No need to remake" line are deleted. It caused "make -B" to fail - For 64 bit the sub architecture stuff is not used. - The way head64.o is specified could be nicer - but it awaits the introduction of head32.o (which seems like a win to introduce for readability) - Patch is checkpatch clean Patch is tested by doing a defconfig build for i386 and x86_64 and in both cases monitoring that only relevant files were recompiled when applying the patch.

For a kernel built with "make ARCH=x86" the following system information is displayed when running the new kernel $ uname -m x86 On some i386 systems (e.g. K7) we even have the following information $ uname -m x66 This is weird. The usual information for "uname -m" should be "x86_64" on 64-bit and "i386" or "i686" on 32-bit. This patch fixes the issue by setting UTS_MACHINE to "i386" for 32-bit kernel builds and to "x86_64" for 64-bit kernel builds. I.e., "x86" won't be used for UTS_MACHINE anymore.
