UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior
(UB).  Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before
operations that could cause UB.  If check fails (i.e.  UB detected)
__ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message.

So the most of the work is done by compiler.  This patch just implements
ubsan handlers printing errors.

GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined
option and its suboptions).
However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2].
Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

[2] - https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Debugging-Options.html
[3] - http://developerblog.redhat.com/2014/10/16/gcc-undefined-behavior-sanitizer-ubsan/

Issues which UBSAN has found thus far are:

Found bugs:

 * out-of-bounds access - 97840cb67ff5 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: fix
   insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind")

undefined shifts:

 * d48458d4a768 ("jbd2: use a better hash function for the revoke
   table")

 * 10632008b9e1 ("clockevents: Prevent shift out of bounds")

 * 'x &lt;&lt; -1' shift in ext4 -

 * undefined dirty_ratelimit calculation -
   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/&lt;566594E2.3050306@odin.com&gt;

   http://lkml.kernel.org/r/&lt;CACT4Y+ZxoR3UjLgcNdUm4fECLMx2VdtfrENMtRRCdgHB2n0bJA@mail.gmail.com&gt;

   WONTFIX here because it should be fixed in bpf program, not in kernel.

signed overflows:

   calculations")

<title>checkpatch: fix a number of COMPLEX_MACRO false positives</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6b10df4257367dd0ead49f88df473972c00a8b5c</id>
<content type='text'>
A simple search over the kernel souce displays a number of correctly
defined multiline macro, which generally are used as an array element
initializer:

% find ../linux -type f | xargs grep -B1 -H '^[:space]*\[.*\\$'

However checkpatch.pl unexpectedly complains about all these macro
definitions:

% ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --types COMPLEX_MACRO -f include/linux/perf/arm_pmu.h

ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses
+#define PERF_MAP_ALL_UNSUPPORTED					\
+	 [0 ... PERF_COUNT_HW_MAX - 1] = HW_OP_UNSUPPORTED

The change intends to fix this type of false positives by flattening
only array members and skipping array element designators.

<title>checkpatch: improve macros with flow control test</title>

The current test excludes any macro with ## concatenation from being
reported with hidden flow control.

Some macros are used with return or goto statements along with ##args or
##__VA_ARGS__.  A somewhat common case is a logging macro like
pr_info(fmt, ...) then a return or goto statement.

Check the concatenated variable for args or __VA_ARGS__ and allow those
macros to also be reported when they contain a return or goto.

<title>checkpatch: warn when casting constants to c90 int or longer types</title>

Linus Torvalds wrote:

&gt; I can't but help to react that this:
&gt;  #define IOMMU_ERROR_CODE       (~(unsigned long) 0)
&gt; Not that this *matters*, but it's a bit odd to have to cast constants
&gt; to perfectly regular C types.

So add a test that looks for constants that are cast to
standard C90 int or longer types and suggest using C90
"6.4.4.1 Integer constants" integer-suffixes instead.

Miscellanea:

o Add a --fix option too

<title>scripts/get_maintainer.pl: handle file names beginning with ./</title>

The problem is that get_maintainer.pl doesn't work if you have a ./
prefix on the filename.  For example, if you type:

  ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f ./drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c

then the current code only includes LKML and people from the git log, it
doesn't include Greg or the linux-usb list.

Merge second patch-bomb from Andrew Morton:

 - more MM stuff:

    - Kirill's page-flags rework

    - Kirill's now-allegedly-fixed THP rework

    - MADV_FREE implementation

    - DAX feature work (msync/fsync).  This isn't quite complete but DAX
      is new and it's good enough and the guys have a handle on what
      needs to be done - I expect this to be wrapped in the next week or
      two.

  - some vsprintf maintenance work

  - various other misc bits
