2023-09-11arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architectureArd Biesheuvel1-5/+0
The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.

2021-10-19lib/xz: Add MicroLZMA decoderLasse Collin4-3/+178
MicroLZMA is a yet another header format variant where the first byte of a raw LZMA stream (without the end of stream marker) has been replaced with a bitwise-negation of the lc/lp/pb properties byte. MicroLZMA was created to be used in EROFS but can be used by other things too where wasting minimal amount of space for headers is important. This is implemented using most of the LZMA2 code as is so the amount of new code is small. The API has a few extra features compared to the XZ decoder. On the other hand, the API lacks XZ_BUF_ERROR support which is important to take into account when using this API. MicroLZMA doesn't support BCJ filters. In theory they could be added later as there are many unused/reserved values for the first byte of the compressed stream but in practice it is somewhat unlikely to happen due to a few implementation reasons.

2021-10-19lib/xz: Validate the value before assigning it to an enum variableLasse Collin1-3/+3
This might matter, for example, if the underlying type of enum xz_check was a signed char. In such a case the validation wouldn't have caught an unsupported header. I don't know if this problem can occur in the kernel on any arch but it's still good to fix it because some people might copy the XZ code to their own projects from Linux instead of the upstream XZ Embedded repository. This change may increase the code size by a few bytes. An alternative would have been to use an unsigned int instead of enum xz_check but using an enumeration looks cleaner.

2021-10-19lib/xz: Avoid overlapping memcpy() with invalid input with in-place ↵Lasse Collin1-2/+19
decompression With valid files, the safety margin described in lib/decompress_unxz.c ensures that these buffers cannot overlap. But if the uncompressed size of the input is larger than the caller thought, which is possible when the input file is invalid/corrupt, the buffers can overlap. Obviously the result will then be garbage (and usually the decoder will return an error too) but no other harm will happen when such an over-run occurs. This change only affects uncompressed LZMA2 chunks and so this should have no effect on performance.

This fixes a regression introduced by faa16bc404d72a5 ("lib: Use existing define with polynomial"). The cleanup added a dependency on include/linux, which broke the PowerPC boot wrapper/decompresser when KERNEL_XZ is enabled: BOOTCC arch/powerpc/boot/decompress.o In file included from arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/decompress_unxz.c:233, from arch/powerpc/boot/decompress.c:42: arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/xz/xz_crc32.c:18:10: fatal error: linux/crc32poly.h: No such file or directory #include <linux/crc32poly.h> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The powerpc decompresser is a hairy corner of the kernel. Even while building a 64-bit kernel it needs to build a 32-bit binary and therefore avoid including files from include/linux. This allows users of the xz library to avoid including headers from 'include/linux/' while still achieving the cleanup of the magic number.

2011-09-21XZ: Fix incorrect XZ_BUF_ERRORLasse Collin1-7/+20
xz_dec_run() could incorrectly return XZ_BUF_ERROR if all of the following was true: - The caller knows how many bytes of output to expect and only provides that much output space. - When the last output bytes are decoded, the caller-provided input buffer ends right before the LZMA2 end of payload marker. So LZMA2 won't provide more output anymore, but it won't know it yet and thus won't return XZ_STREAM_END yet. - A BCJ filter is in use and it hasn't left any unfiltered bytes in the temp buffer. This can happen with any BCJ filter, but in practice it's more likely with filters other than the x86 BCJ. This fixes <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735408> where Squashfs thinks that a valid file system is corrupt. This also fixes a similar bug in single-call mode where the uncompressed size of a block using BCJ + LZMA2 was 0 bytes and caller provided no output space. Many empty .xz files don't contain any blocks and thus don't trigger this bug. This also tweaks a closely related detail: xz_dec_bcj_run() could call xz_dec_lzma2_run() to decode into temp buffer when it was known to be useless. This was harmless although it wasted a minuscule number of CPU cycles.

2011-01-20kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERTDavid Rientjes1-6/+6
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.

2011-01-13decompressors: add XZ decompressor moduleLasse Collin11-0/+3344
In userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format that got superseded by the .xz format. Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded by XZ Utils. These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel. Most of the code is as is from XZ Embedded <http://tukaani.org/xz/embedded.html>. It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too. Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel: - Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression. - Integrity check support (CRC32) - BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower. This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module (xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool, and documentation. The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZ decompressor e.g. for Squashfs. Signed-off-by: Lasse Collin <lasse.collin@tukaani.org> Cc: "H.
