This moves the USB-related parts of generate-config-usb.sh to util.sh
and reuses them in generate-config-kmsan-from-kasan.sh.
It also updates upstream-kmsan.config
A const can be used as array size. Then if the const is not present
on all arches, compiler will produce an error about 0-sized-array.
There is no easy way to work around this for a user.
Use value of 1 for missing consts. It's just a bit safer.
Using a build tag to exclude files for golangci-lint
reduces memory consumption (it does not parse them).
The naive attempt with skip-dirs did not work.
So add codeanalysis build tag and use it in auto-generated files.
Update #977
Now that we have the len path expressions we can fix the TODO
in btf descriptions to properly specify offsets of btf sections.
Also add proper descriptions for btf type section
and few other minor things around.
This change adds compiler support for complex path
expressions in len targets. E.g. it allows to refer
to a sibling field as len[parent_struct:field:another_field].
See the docs change for details.
This is just a compiler change.
The feature is not yet supported by the prog package.
This prepared for handling of bytesize[parent:foo:bar] expressions
by allowing multiple identifiers after colon.
No functional changes for now, just preparation for storing more
than one identifier after colon.
This is especially problematic for file descriptors referring to tty/pty
devices since it can cause the SSH connection to the VM to die.
The ambition here is reduce the number of "lost connection/no output" failures
at the cost of limiting the coverage of chflags(2).
This is done via a custom Kconfiglib based script, that allows to merge
in all USB configs from a provided one into the current. The script finds
and enabled all USB configs and their dependencies.
make extract recently broke for powerpc on linux-next with:
include/uapi/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:6:2: error: #error "Unsupported endianness, check your toolchain"
#error "Unsupported endianness, check your toolchain"
Turns out we always built ppc64le headers as big-endian.
First, kernel was configured as BE.
Then, we used gcc to build an executable program for host
and on x86 gcc does not define __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ so kernel
thought that the toolchain is BE too.
Configure kernel as LE and define __LITTLE_ENDIAN__.
This actually changes values of some consts,
but fortunately just few of them.
Due to missing padding arguments, stack garbage could end up being used as
actual arguments. More reading for the curious[1].
While here, add missing descriptions for pread and pwrite.

* vm: add bhyve support
bhyve is FreeBSD's native hypervisor. Because it is missing snapshot
support and user networking, some additional configuration on the host
is required. However, unlike QEMU on FreeBSD, bhyve can make use of
hardware virtualization features and is thus faster.
* docs/freebsd: document bhyve support
