Subject: kasan: fix GCC mem-intrinsic prefix with sw tags
Date: Thu, 21 Aug 2025 13:07:35 +0100
GCC doesn't support "hwasan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix", only
"asan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix"[0], while LLVM supports both. This is
already taken into account when checking
"CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", but not in the KASAN Makefile
adding those parameters when "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" is enabled.
Replace the version check with "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX",
which already validates that mem-intrinsic prefix parameter can be used,
and choose the correct name depending on compiler.
GCC 13 and above trigger "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX" which
prevents `mem{cpy,move,set}()` being redefined in "mm/kasan/shadow.c"
since commit 36be5cba99f6 ("kasan: treat meminstrinsic as builtins in
uninstrumented files"), as we expect the compiler to prefix those calls
with `__(hw)asan_` instead. But as the option passed to GCC has been
incorrect, the compiler has not been emitting those prefixes, effectively
never calling the instrumented versions of `mem{cpy,move,set}()` with
"CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" enabled.
If "CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCES" is enabled, this issue would be mitigated as
it redefines `mem{cpy,move,set}()` and properly aliases the
`__underlying_mem*()` that will be called to the instrumented versions.

part of the API exposed to the rcar-isp driver. All other symbols except
that one are properly exported. Fix it.

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: userprogs: use correct linker when mixing clang and
GNU ld
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
The userprogs infrastructure does not expect clang being used with GNU ld
and in that case uses /usr/bin/ld for linking, not the configured $(LD).
This fallback is problematic as it will break when cross-compiling.
Mixing clang and GNU ld is used for example when building for SPARC64,
as ld.lld is not sufficient; see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst.
Relax the check around --ld-path so it gets used for all linkers.

Select the Default SATA Link Power Management (LPM) policy to use
for chipsets / "South Bridges" supporting low-power modes. Such
chipsets are ubiquitous across laptops, desktops and servers.
+ Each policy combines power saving states and features:
+ - Partial: The Phy logic is powered but is in a reduced power
+ state. The exit latency from this state is no longer than
+ 10us).
+ - Slumber: The Phy logic is powered but is in an even lower power
+ state. The exit latency from this state is potentially
+ longer, but no longer than 10ms.
+ - DevSleep: The Phy logic may be powered down. The exit latency from
+ this state is no longer than 20 ms, unless otherwise
+ specified by DETO in the device Identify Device Data log.
+ - HIPM: Host Initiated Power Management (host automatically
+ transitions to partial and slumber).
+ - DIPM: Device Initiated Power Management (device automatically
+ transitions to partial and slumber).
- The value set has the following meanings:
+ The possible values for the default SATA link power management
+ policies are:
0 => Keep firmware settings
- 1 => Maximum performance
- 2 => Medium power
- 3 => Medium power with Device Initiated PM enabled
- 4 => Minimum power
+ 1 => No power savings (maximum performance)

+ 5 => HIPM (Slumber and DevSleep) and DIPM (Partial and Slumber)
- Note "Minimum power" is known to cause issues, including disk
- corruption, with some disks and should not be used.
+ Excluding the value 0, higher values represent policies with higher
+ power savings.

Select the Default SATA Link Power Management (LPM) policy to use
for chipsets / "South Bridges" supporting low-power modes. Such
chipsets are ubiquitous across laptops, desktops and servers.
+ Each policy combines power saving states and features:
+ - Partial: The Phy logic is powered but is in a reduced power
+ state. The exit latency from this state is no longer than
+ 10us).
+ - Slumber: The Phy logic is powered but is in an even lower power
+ state. The exit latency from this state is potentially
+ longer, but no longer than 10ms.
+ - DevSleep: The Phy logic may be powered down. The exit latency from
+ this state is no longer than 20 ms, unless otherwise
+ specified by DETO in the device Identify Device Data log.
+ - HIPM: Host Initiated Power Management (host automatically
+ transitions to partial and slumber).
+ - DIPM: Device Initiated Power Management (device automatically
+ transitions to partial and slumber).
- The value set has the following meanings:
+ The possible values for the default SATA link power management
+ policies are:
0 => Keep firmware settings
- 1 => Maximum performance
- 2 => Medium power
- 3 => Medium power with Device Initiated PM enabled
- 4 => Minimum power
+ 1 => No power savings (maximum performance)
+ 2 => HIPM (Partial)
+ 3 => HIPM (Partial) and DIPM (Partial and Slumber)
+ 4 => HIPM (Partial and DevSleep) and DIPM (Partial and Slumber)
+ 5 => HIPM (Slumber and DevSleep) and DIPM (Partial and Slumber)
- Note "Minimum power" is known to cause issues, including disk
- corruption, with some disks and should not be used.
+ Excluding the value 0, higher values represent policies with higher
+ power savings.
