+Subject: include/linux/module.h: copy __init/__exit attrs to init/cleanup_module
+To: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
+Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org, Miguel Ojeda <miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com>
+Message-ID: <20190802103757.31397-2-miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com>

+From: Miguel Ojeda <miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com>
+
+commit a6e60d84989fa0e91db7f236eda40453b0e44afa upstream.
+
+The upcoming GCC 9 release extends the -Wmissing-attributes warnings
+(enabled by -Wall) to C and aliases: it warns when particular function
+attributes are missing in the aliases but not in their target.
+
+In particular, it triggers for all the init/cleanup_module
+aliases in the kernel (defined by the module_init/exit macros),
+ending up being very noisy.
+
+These aliases point to the __init/__exit functions of a module,
+which are defined as __cold (among other attributes). However,
+the aliases themselves do not have the __cold attribute.
+
+Since the compiler behaves differently when compiling a __cold
+function as well as when compiling paths leading to calls
+to __cold functions, the warning is trying to point out
+the possibly-forgotten attribute in the alias.
+
+In order to keep the warning enabled, we decided to silence
+this case. Ideally, we would mark the aliases directly
+as __init/__exit. However, there are currently around 132 modules
+in the kernel which are missing __init/__exit in their init/cleanup
+functions (either because they are missing, or for other reasons,
+e.g. the functions being called from somewhere else); and
+a section mismatch is a hard error.
+
+A conservative alternative was to mark the aliases as __cold only.
+However, since we would like to eventually enforce __init/__exit
+to be always marked,  we chose to use the new __copy function
+attribute (introduced by GCC 9 as well to deal with this).
+With it, we copy the attributes used by the target functions
+into the aliases. This way, functions that were not marked
+as __init/__exit won't have their aliases marked either,
+and therefore there won't be a section mismatch.
+
+Note that the warning would go away marking either the extern
+declaration, the definition, or both. However, we only mark
+the definition of the alias, since we do not want callers
+(which only see the declaration) to be compiled as if the function
+was __cold (and therefore the paths leading to those calls
+would be assumed to be unlikely).

+Subject: objtool: Support GCC 9 cold subfunction naming scheme
+
+From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>
+
+commit bcb6fb5da77c2a228adf07cc9cb1a0c2aa2001c6 upstream.
+
+Starting with GCC 8, a lot of unlikely code was moved out of line to
+"cold" subfunctions in .text.unlikely.
+
+For example, the unlikely bits of:
+
+  irq_do_set_affinity()
+
+are moved out to the following subfunction:
+
+  irq_do_set_affinity.cold.49()
+
+Starting with GCC 9, the numbered suffix has been removed.  So in the
+above example, the cold subfunction is instead:
+
+  irq_do_set_affinity.cold()
+
+Tweak the objtool subfunction detection logic so that it detects both
+GCC 8 and GCC 9 naming schemes.
