19be6b818a BACKPORT: kbuild: avoid regex RS for POSIX awk
In 22f26f21774f8 awk was added to deduplicate *.mod files.  The awk
invocation passes -v RS='( |\n)' to match a space or newline character
as the record separator.  Unfortunately, POSIX states[1]

> If RS contains more than one character, the results are unspecified.

Some implementations (such as the One True Awk[2] used by the BSDs) do
not treat RS as a regular expression.  When awk does not support regex
RS, build failures such as the following are produced (first error using
allmodconfig):

To avoid this, use printf(1) to produce a newline between each object
path, instead of the space produced by echo(1), so that the default RS
can be used by awk.

370d33da35 x86: Add straight-line-speculation mitigation
[ Upstream commit e463a09af2f0677b9485a7e8e4e70b396b2ffb6f ]

Make use of an upcoming GCC feature to mitigate
straight-line-speculation for x86:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/g:53a643f8568067d7700a9f2facc8ba39974973d3
  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102952
  https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52323

It's built tested on x86_64-allyesconfig using GCC-12 and GCC-11.

Maintenance overhead of this should be fairly low due to objtool
validation.

Size overhead of all these additional int3 instructions comes to:

     text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  22267751	6933356	2011368	31212475	1dc43bb	defconfig-build/vmlinux
  22804126	6933356	1470696	31208178	1dc32f2	defconfig-build/vmlinux.sls

d11f96d0c0 kbuild: move objtool_args back to scripts/Makefile.build
[ Upstream commit 8f0c32c788fffa8e88f995372415864039347c8a ]

Commit b1a1a1a09b ("kbuild: lto: postpone objtool") moved objtool_args
to Makefile.lib, so the arguments can be used in Makefile.modfinal as
well as Makefile.build.

With commit 850ded46c6 ("kbuild: Fix TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS with
LTO_CLANG"), module LTO linking came back to scripts/Makefile.build
again.

So, there is no more reason to keep objtool_args in a separate file.

Get it back to the original place, close to the objtool command.

Remove the stale comment too.

3fd0696927 FROMGIT: kbuild: get rid of duplication in *.mod files
It is allowed to add the same objects multiple times to obj-y / obj-m:

  obj-y += foo.o foo.o foo.o
  obj-m += bar.o bar.o bar.o

It is also allowed to add the same objects multiple times to a composite
module:

  obj-m += foo.o
  foo-y := foo1.o foo2.o foo2.o foo1.o

This flexibility is useful because the same object might be selected by
different CONFIG options, like this:

  obj-m               += foo.o
  foo-y               := foo1.o
  foo-$(CONFIG_FOO_X) += foo2.o
  foo-$(CONFIG_FOO_Y) += foo2.o

The duplicated objects are omitted at link time. It works naturally in
Makefiles because GNU Make removes duplication in $^ without changing
the order.

It is working well, almost...

A small flaw I notice is, *.mod contains duplication in such a case.

This is probably not a big deal. As far as I know, the only small
problem is scripts/mod/sumversion.c parses the same file multiple
times.

I am fixing this because I plan to reuse *.mod for other purposes,
where the duplication can be problematic.

The code change is quite simple. We already use awk to drop duplicated
lines in modules.order (see cmd_modules_order in the same file).
I copied the code, but changed RS to use spaces as record separators.

I also changed the file format to list one object per line.

0e5851bf31 FROMGIT: kbuild: split the second line of *.mod into *.usyms
The *.mod files have two lines; the first line lists the member objects
of the module, and the second line, if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y, lists
the undefined symbols.

Currently, we generate *.mod after constructing composite modules,
otherwise, we cannot compute the second line. No prerequisite is
required to print the first line.

They are orthogonal. Splitting them into separate commands will ease
further cleanups.

This commit splits the list of undefined symbols out to *.usyms files.

Previously, the list of undefined symbols ended up with a very long
line, but now it has one symbol per line.

Use sed like we did before commit 7d32358be8 ("kbuild: avoid split
lines in .mod files").

a8390ba9dd kbuild: remove stale *.symversions
cmd_update_lto_symversions merges all the existing *.symversions, but
some of them might be stale.

If the last EXPORT_SYMBOL is removed from a C file, the *.symversions
file is not deleted or updated. It contains stale CRCs, but still they
will be used for linking the vmlinux or modules.

It is not a big deal when the EXPORT_SYMBOL is really removed. However,
when the EXPORT_SYMBOL is moved to another file, the same __crc_<symbol>
will appear twice in the merged *.symversions, possibly with different
CRCs if the function argument is changed at the same time. It would
confuse module versioning.

If no EXPORT_SYMBOL is found, let's remove *.symversions explicitly.

850ded46c6 kbuild: Fix TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS with LTO_CLANG
With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, we currently link modules into native
code just before modpost, which means with TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
enabled, we still look at the LLVM bitcode in the .o files when
generating the list of used symbols. As the bitcode doesn't
yet have calls to compiler intrinsics and llvm-nm doesn't see
function references that only exist in function-level inline
assembly, we currently need a whitelist for TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS to
work with LTO.

This change moves module LTO linking to happen earlier, and
thus avoids the issue with LLVM bitcode and TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
entirely, allowing us to also drop the whitelist from
gen_autoksyms.sh.

1d11053dc6 Kbuild: lto: fix module versionings mismatch in GNU make 3.X
When building modules(CONFIG_...=m), I found some of module versions
are incorrect and set to 0.
This can be found in build log for first clean build which shows

WARNING: EXPORT symbol "XXXX" [drivers/XXX/XXX.ko] version generation failed,
symbol will not be versioned.

But in second build(incremental build), the WARNING disappeared and the
module version becomes valid CRC and make someone who want to change
modules without updating kernel image can't insert their modules.

The problematic code is
+	$(foreach n, $(filter-out FORCE,$^),				\
+		$(if $(wildcard $(n).symversions),			\
+			; cat $(n).symversions >> $@.symversions))

For example:
  rm -f fs/notify/built-in.a.symversions    ; rm -f fs/notify/built-in.a; \
llvm-ar cDPrST fs/notify/built-in.a fs/notify/fsnotify.o \
fs/notify/notification.o fs/notify/group.o ...

`foreach n` shows nothing to `cat` into $(n).symversions because
`if $(wildcard $(n).symversions)` return nothing, but actually
they do exist during this line was executed.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 168580 Jun 13 19:10 fs/notify/fsnotify.o
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    111 Jun 13 19:10 fs/notify/fsnotify.o.symversions

The reason is the $(n).symversions are generated at runtime, but
Makefile wildcard function expends and checks the file exist or not
during parsing the Makefile.

Thus fix this by use `test` shell command to check the file
existence in runtime.

a2480b4d7e Revert "kbuild: remove libelf checks from top Makefile"
This reverts commit 0d989ac2c9.

Android kernel isn't ready for this change yet.  Here's why:

There are a couple of different methods for linking the Android
kernel presently, hermetically and not.  When *not* building
hermetically, the kernel is linked against locally installed
libraries (OpenSSL, LibElf, etc), usually installed by the distro.
Since these are usually fully fledged versions, they're usually
sufficient for any possible combination of build options.

However, when building hermetically (the intended default), the kernel
is linked against libraries contained in the `repo` controlled AOSP
repositories.  This is not a problem for the vast majority of the
important builds, but x86 allmodconfig builds require more
functionality than is presently provided.

This revert changes the presence of LibElf to be voluntary again.
Meaning that we do not have to insist on the presence of a locally
installed instance.

Once OpenSSL (currently provided via BoringSSL) is upgraded to a more
featureful offering, we can consider re-inclusion of this patch.

0d989ac2c9 kbuild: remove libelf checks from top Makefile
I do not see a good reason why only the libelf development package must
be so carefully checked.

Kbuild generally does not check host tools or libraries.

For example, x86_64 defconfig fails to build with no libssl development
package installed.

scripts/extract-cert.c:21:10: fatal error: openssl/bio.h: No such file or directory
   21 | #include <openssl/bio.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To solve the build error, you need to install libssl-dev or openssl-devel
package, depending on your distribution.

'apt-file search', 'dnf provides', etc. is your frined to find a proper
package to install.

This commit removes all the libelf checks from the top Makefile.

If libelf is missing, objtool will fail to build in a similar pattern:

.../linux/tools/objtool/include/objtool/elf.h:10:10: fatal error: gelf.h: No such file or directory
   10 | #include <gelf.h>

You need to install libelf-dev, libelf-devel, or elfutils-libelf-devel
to proceed.

Another remarkable change is, CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION (without
CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC) previously continued to build with a warning,
but now it will treat missing libelf as an error.

This is just a one-time installation, so it should not hurt to break
a build and make a user install the package.

BTW, the traditional way to handle such checks is autotool, but according
to [1], I do not expect the kernel build would have similar scripting
like './configure' does.

8852c55240 kbuild: Fix objtool dependency for 'OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD_<obj> := n'
"OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD_vma.o := n" has a dependency bug.  When
objtool source is updated, the affected object doesn't get re-analyzed
by objtool.

Peter's new variable-sized jump label feature relies on objtool
rewriting the object file.  Otherwise the system can fail to boot.  That
effectively upgrades this minor dependency issue to a major bug.

The problem is that variables in prerequisites are expanded early,
during the read-in phase.  The '$(objtool_dep)' variable indirectly uses
'$@', which isn't yet available when the target prerequisites are
evaluated.

Use '.SECONDEXPANSION:' which causes '$(objtool_dep)' to be expanded in
a later phase, after the target-specific '$@' variable has been defined.

3204a7fb98 kbuild: prefix $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles
VPATH is used in Kbuild to make pattern rules search for prerequisites
in both $(objtree) and $(srctree). Some of *.c, *.S files are not real
sources, but generated by tools such as flex, bison, perl.

In contrast, I doubt the benefit of --include-dir=$(abs_srctree) because
it is always clear which Makefiles are real sources, and which are not.

So, my hope is to add $(srctree)/ prefix to all check-in Makefiles,
then remove --include-dir=$(abs_srctree) flag in the future.

I am touching only some Kbuild core parts for now. Treewide fixes will
be needed to achieve this goal.

dc5723b02e kbuild: add support for Clang LTO
This change adds build system support for Clang's Link Time
Optimization (LTO). With -flto, instead of ELF object files, Clang
produces LLVM bitcode, which is compiled into native code at link
time, allowing the final binary to be optimized globally. For more
details, see:

  https://llvm.org/docs/LinkTimeOptimization.html

The Kconfig option CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is implemented as a choice,
which defaults to LTO being disabled. To use LTO, the architecture
must select ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG and support:

  - compiling with Clang,
  - compiling all assembly code with Clang's integrated assembler,
  - and linking with LLD.

While using CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_FULL results in the best runtime
performance, the compilation is not scalable in time or
memory. CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN enables ThinLTO, which allows
parallel optimization and faster incremental builds. ThinLTO is
used by default if the architecture also selects
ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG_THIN:

  https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThinLTO.html

To enable LTO, LLVM tools must be used to handle bitcode files, by
passing LLVM=1 and LLVM_IAS=1 options to make:

  $ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig
  $ scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN
  $ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1

To prepare for LTO support with other compilers, common parts are
gated behind the CONFIG_LTO option, and LTO can be disabled for
specific files by filtering out CC_FLAGS_LTO.

7d32358be8 kbuild: avoid split lines in .mod files
"xargs echo" is not a safe way to remove line breaks because the input
may exceed the command line limit and xargs may break it up into
multiple invocations of echo. This should never happen because
scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh expects all undefined symbols are placed in
the second line of .mod files.

One possible way is to replace "xargs echo" with
"sed ':x;N;$!bx;s/\n/ /g'" or something, but I rewrote the code by
using awk because it is more readable.

This issue was reported by Sami Tolvanen; in his Clang LTO patch set,
$(multi-used-m) is no longer an ELF object, but a thin archive that
contains LLVM bitcode files. llvm-nm prints out symbols for each
archive member separately, which results a lot of dupications, in some
places, beyond the system-defined limit.

This problem must be fixed irrespective of LTO, and we must ensure
zero possibility of having this issue.

42640b134b kbuild: move host .so build rules to scripts/gcc-plugins/Makefile
The host shared library rules are currently implemented in
scripts/Makefile.host, but actually GCC-plugin is the only user of
them. (The VDSO .so files are built for the target by different
build rules) Hence, they do not need to be treewide available.

Move all the relevant build rules to scripts/gcc-plugins/Makefile.

I also optimized the build steps so *.so is directly built from .c
because every upstream plugin is compiled from a single source file.

I am still keeping the multi-file plugin support, which Kees Cook
mentioned might be needed by out-of-tree plugins.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/11/1107)

If the plugin, foo.so, is compiled from two files foo.c and foo2.c,
then you can do like follows:

  foo-objs := foo.o foo2.o

Single-file plugins do not need the *-objs notation.

7f3a59db27 kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programs
Kbuild supports the infrastructure to build host programs, but there
was no support to build userspace programs for the target architecture
(i.e. the same architecture as the kernel).

Sam Ravnborg worked on this in 2014 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/13/154),
but it was not merged. One problem at that time was, there was no good way
to know whether $(CC) can link standalone programs. In fact, pre-built
kernel.org toolchains [1] are often used for building the kernel, but they
do not provide libc.

Now, we can handle this cleanly because the compiler capability is
evaluated at the Kconfig time. If $(CC) cannot link standalone programs,
the relevant options are hidden by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK'.

The implementation just mimics scripts/Makefile.host

The userspace programs are compiled with the same flags as the host
programs. In addition, it uses -m32 or -m64 if it is found in
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS).

This new syntax has two usecases.

- Sample programs

  Several userspace programs under samples/ include UAPI headers
  installed in usr/include. Most of them were previously built for
  the host architecture just to use the 'hostprogs' syntax.

  However, 'make headers' always works for the target architecture.
  This caused the arch mismatch in cross-compiling. To fix this
  distortion, sample code should be built for the target architecture.

- Bpfilter

  net/bpfilter/Makefile compiles bpfilter_umh as the user mode helper,
  and embeds it into the kernel. Currently, it overrides HOSTCC with
  CC to use the 'hostprogs' syntax. This hack should go away.
