2020-06-11kbuild: fix broken builds because of GZIP,BZIP2,LZOP variablesDenis Efremov
Redefine GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP variables as KGZIP, KBZIP2, KLZOP resp. GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP env variables are reserved by the tools. The original attempt to redefine them internally doesn't work in makefiles/scripts intercall scenarios, e.g., "make GZIP=gzip bindeb-pkg" and results in broken builds. There can be other broken build commands because of this, so the universal solution is to use non-reserved env variables for the compression tools.

Allow user to use alternative implementations of compression tools, such as pigz, pbzip2, pxz. For example, multi-threaded tools to speed up the build: $ make GZIP=pigz BZIP2=pbzip2 Variables _GZIP, _BZIP2, _LZOP are used internally because original env vars are reserved by the tools. The use of GZIP in gzip tool is obsolete since 2015. However, alternative implementations (e.g., pigz) still rely on it. BZIP2, BZIP, LZOP vars are not obsolescent. The credit goes to @grsecurity. As a sidenote, for multi-threaded lzma, xz compression one can use: $ export XZ_OPT="--threads=0" Signed-off-by: Denis Efremov <efremov@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2020-06-06Makefile: install modules.builtin even if CONFIG_MODULES=nJonas Zeiger
Many applications check for available kernel features via: - /proc/modules (loaded modules, present if CONFIG_MODULES=y) - $(MODLIB)/modules.builtin (builtin modules) They fail to detect features if the kernel was built with CONFIG_MODULES=n and modules.builtin isn't installed. Therefore, add the target "_builtin_inst_" and make "install" and "modules_install" depend on it. Tests results: - make install: kernel image is copied as before, modules.builtin copied - make modules_install: (CONFIG_MODULES=n) nothing is copied, exit 1 Signed-off-by: Jonas Zeiger <jonas.zeiger@talpidae.net> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2020-06-06modpost: show warning if any of symbol dump files is missingMasahiro Yamada
If modpost fails to load a symbol dump file, it cannot check unresolved symbols, hence module dependency will not be added. Nor CRCs can be added. Currently, external module builds check only $(objtree)/Module.symvers, but it should check files specified by KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS as well. Move the warning message from the top Makefile to scripts/Makefile.modpost and print the warning if any dump file is missing. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2020-06-06modpost: generate vmlinux.symvers and reuse it for the second modpostMasahiro Yamada
The full build runs modpost twice, first for vmlinux.o and second for modules. The first pass dumps all the vmlinux symbols into Module.symvers, but the second pass parses vmlinux again instead of reusing the dump file, presumably because it needs to avoid accumulating stale symbols. Loading symbol info from a dump file is faster than parsing an ELF object. Besides, modpost deals with various issues to parse vmlinux in the second pass. A solution is to make the first pass dumps symbols into a separate file, vmlinux.symvers. The second pass reads it, and parses module .o files. The merged symbol information is dumped into Module.symvers in the same way as before. This makes further modpost cleanups possible. Also, it fixes the problem of 'make vmlinux', which previously overwrote Module.symvers, throwing away module symbols. I slightly touched scripts/link-vmlinux.sh so that vmlinux is re-linked when you cross this commit. Otherwise, vmlinux.symvers would not be generated.

2020-06-03kbuild: update modules.order only when contained modules are updatedMasahiro Yamada
Make modules.order depend on $(obj-m), and use if_changed to build it. This will avoid unneeded update of modules.order, which will be useful to optimize the modpost stage. Currently, the second pass of modpost is always invoked. By checking the timestamp of modules.order, we can avoid the unneeded modpost. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon: "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8. Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support Branch Target Identification (BTI): - Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code, although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain. - Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions. - BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions. - Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the BTI feature in .note.gnu.property. - Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn trampoline. Shadow Call Stack (SCS): - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task that holds only return addresses. This protects function return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack. - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode, hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc). - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it too. - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y. CPU feature detection: - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system. - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has been extended. Perf and PMU drivers: - Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers. Hardware errata: - Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations. - Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.

Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI): - Unexport a bunch of unused symbols. - Minor fixes to handling of firmware data. Pointer authentication: - Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump. - Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup. BPF backend: - Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions. vDSO: - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder. - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace. ACPI: - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to the "num_ids" field. - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe root complexes. - Minor other IORT-related fixes.

2020-05-29Makefile: support compressed debug infoNick Desaulniers
As debug information gets larger and larger, it helps significantly save the size of vmlinux images to compress the information in the debug information sections. Note: this debug info is typically split off from the final compressed kernel image, which is why vmlinux is what's used in conjunction with GDB. Minimizing the debug info size should have no impact on boot times, or final compressed kernel image size. All of the debug sections will have a `C` flag set. $ readelf -S <object file> $ bloaty vmlinux.gcc75.compressed.dwarf4 -- \ vmlinux.gcc75.uncompressed.dwarf4 FILE SIZE VM SIZE -------------- -------------- +0.0% +18 [ = ] 0 [Unmapped] -73.3% -114Ki [ = ] 0 .debug_aranges -76.2% -2.01Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_frame -73.6% -2.89Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_str -80.7% -4.66Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_abbrev -82.9% -4.88Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_ranges -70.5% -9.04Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_line -79.3% -10.9Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_loc -39.5% -88.6Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_info -18.2% -123Mi [ = ] 0 TOTAL $ bloaty vmlinux.clang11.compressed.dwarf4 -- \ vmlinux.clang11.uncompressed.dwarf4 FILE SIZE VM SIZE -------------- -------------- +0.0% +23 [ = ] 0 [Unmapped] -65.6% -871 [ = ] 0 .debug_aranges -77.4% -1.84Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_frame -82.9% -2.33Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_abbrev -73.1% -2.43Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_str -84.8% -3.07Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_ranges -65.9% -8.62Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_line -86.2% -40.0Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_loc -42.0% -64.1Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_info -22.1% -122Mi [ = ] 0 TOTAL For x86_64 defconfig + LLVM=1 (before): Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 3:22.03 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 43856 For x86_64 defconfig + LLVM=1 (after): Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 3:32.52 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 1566776 Thanks to: Nick Clifton helped us to provide the minimal binutils version.

2020-05-29kbuild: disallow multi-word in M= or KBUILD_EXTMODMasahiro Yamada
$(firstword ...) in scripts/Makefile.modpost was added by commit 3f3fd3c05585 ("[PATCH] kbuild: allow multi-word $M in Makefile.modpost") to build multiple external module directories. It was a solution to resolve symbol dependencies when an external module depends on another external module. Commit 0d96fb20b7ed ("kbuild: Add new Kbuild variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS") introduced another solution by passing symbol info via KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, then broke the multi-word M= support. include $(if $(wildcard $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Kbuild), \ $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Kbuild, $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Makefile) ... does not work if KBUILD_EXTMOD contains multiple words. This feature has been broken for more than a decade. Remove the bitrotten code, and stop parsing if M or KBUILD_EXTMOD contains multiple words. As Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst explains, if your module depends on another one, there are two solutions: - add a common top-level Kbuild file - use KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

2020-05-17kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programsMasahiro Yamada
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.

2020-05-15scs: Add support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack (SCS)Sami Tolvanen
This change adds generic support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack, which uses a shadow stack to protect return addresses from being overwritten by an attacker. Details are available here: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ShadowCallStack.html Note that security guarantees in the kernel differ from the ones documented for user space. The kernel must store addresses of shadow stacks in memory, which means an attacker capable reading and writing arbitrary memory may be able to locate them and hijack control flow by modifying the stacks.

2020-05-09gcc-10: disable 'restrict' warning for nowLinus Torvalds
gcc-10 now warns about passing aliasing pointers to functions that take restricted pointers. That's actually a great warning, and if we ever start using 'restrict' in the kernel, it might be quite useful. But right now we don't, and it turns out that the only thing this warns about is an idiom where we have declared a few functions to be "printf-like" (which seems to make gcc pick up the restricted pointer thing), and then we print to the same buffer that we also use as an input. And people do that as an odd concatenation pattern, with code like this: #define sysfs_show_gen_prop(buffer, fmt, ...) \ snprintf(buffer, PAGE_SIZE, "%s"fmt, buffer, __VA_ARGS__) where we have 'buffer' as both the destination of the final result, and as the initial argument. Yes, it's a bit questionable. And outside of the kernel, people do have standard declarations like int snprintf( char *restrict buffer, size_t bufsz, const char *restrict format, ... ); where that output buffer is marked as a restrict pointer that cannot alias with any other arguments. But in the context of the kernel, that 'use snprintf() to concatenate to the end result' does work, and the pattern shows up in multiple places. And we have not marked our own version of snprintf() as taking restrict pointers, so the warning is incorrect for now, and gcc picks it up on its own. If we do start using 'restrict' in the kernel (and it might be a good idea if people find places where it matters), we'll need to figure out how to avoid this issue for snprintf and friends. But in the meantime, this warning is not useful. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2020-05-09gcc-10: disable 'stringop-overflow' warning for nowLinus Torvalds
This is the final array bounds warning removal for gcc-10 for now. Again, the warning is good, and we should re-enable all these warnings when we have converted all the legacy array declaration cases to flexible arrays. But in the meantime, it's just noise. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2020-05-09gcc-10: disable 'array-bounds' warning for nowLinus Torvalds
This is another fine warning, related to the 'zero-length-bounds' one, but hitting the same historical code in the kernel. Because C didn't historically support flexible array members, we have code that instead uses a one-sized array, the same way we have cases of zero-sized arrays. The one-sized arrays come from either not wanting to use the gcc zero-sized array extension, or from a slight convenience-feature, where particularly for strings, the size of the structure now includes the allocation for the final NUL character. So with a "char name[1];" at the end of a structure, you can do things like v = my_malloc(sizeof(struct vendor) + strlen(name)); and avoid the "+1" for the terminator. Yes, the modern way to do that is with a flexible array, and using 'offsetof()' instead of 'sizeof()', and adding the "+1" by hand. That also technically gets the size "more correct" in that it avoids any alignment (and thus padding) issues, but this is another long-term cleanup thing that will not happen for 5.7. So disable the warning for now, even though it's potentially quite useful. Having a slew of warnings that then hide more urgent new issues is not an improvement.

2020-05-09gcc-10: disable 'zero-length-bounds' warning for nowLinus Torvalds
This is a fine warning, but we still have a number of zero-length arrays in the kernel that come from the traditional gcc extension. Yes, they are getting converted to flexible arrays, but in the meantime the gcc-10 warning about zero-length bounds is very verbose, and is hiding other issues. I missed one actual build failure because it was hidden among hundreds of lines of warning. Thankfully I caught it on the second go before pushing things out, but it convinced me that I really need to disable the new warnings for now. We'll hopefully be all done with our conversion to flexible arrays in the not too distant future, and we can then re-enable this warning. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2020-05-09Stop the ad-hoc games with -Wno-maybe-initializedLinus Torvalds
We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.

2020-04-09kbuild: support LLVM=1 to switch the default tools to Clang/LLVMMasahiro Yamada
As Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst implies, building the kernel with a full set of LLVM tools gets very verbose and unwieldy. Provide a single switch LLVM=1 to use Clang and LLVM tools instead of GCC and Binutils. You can pass it from the command line or as an environment variable. Please note LLVM=1 does not turn on the integrated assembler. You need to pass LLVM_IAS=1 to use it. When the upstream kernel is ready for the integrated assembler, I think we can make it default. We discussed what we need, and we agreed to go with a simple boolean flag that switches both target and host tools: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/28/494 https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/3/43 Some items discussed, but not adopted: - LLVM_DIR When multiple versions of LLVM are installed, I just thought supporting LLVM_DIR=/path/to/my/llvm/bin/ might be useful. CC = $(LLVM_DIR)clang LD = $(LLVM_DIR)ld.lld ... However, we can handle this by modifying PATH. So, we decided to not do this. - LLVM_SUFFIX Some distributions (e.g. Debian) package specific versions of LLVM with naming conventions that use the version as a suffix. CC = clang$(LLVM_SUFFIX) LD = ld.lld(LLVM_SUFFIX) ... will allow a user to pass LLVM_SUFFIX=-11 to use clang-11 etc., but the suffixed versions in /usr/bin/ are symlinks to binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin/, so this can also be handled by PATH.

2020-04-09kbuild: replace AS=clang with LLVM_IAS=1Masahiro Yamada
The 'AS' variable is unused for building the kernel. Only the remaining usage is to turn on the integrated assembler. A boolean flag is a better fit for this purpose. AS=clang was added for experts. So, I replaced it with LLVM_IAS=1, breaking the backward compatibility.

2020-04-09kbuild: link lib-y objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=yMasahiro Yamada
Kbuild supports not only obj-y but also lib-y to list objects linked to vmlinux. The difference between them is that all the objects from obj-y are forcibly linked to vmlinux, whereas the objects from lib-y are linked as needed; if there is no user of a lib-y object, it is not linked. lib-y is intended to list utility functions that may be called from all over the place (and may be unused at all), but it is a problem for EXPORT_SYMBOL(). Even if there is no call-site in the vmlinux, we need to keep exported symbols for the use from loadable modules. Commit 7f2084fa55e6 ("[kbuild] handle exports in lib-y objects reliably") worked around it by linking a dummy object, lib-ksyms.o, which contains references to all the symbols exported from lib.a in that directory. It uses the linker script command, EXTERN. Unfortunately, the meaning of EXTERN of ld.lld is different from that of ld.bfd. Therefore, this does not work with LD=ld.lld (CBL issue #515). Anyway, the build rule of lib-ksyms.o is somewhat tricky. So, I want to get rid of it. At first, I was thinking of accumulating lib-y objects into obj-y (or even replacing lib-y with obj-y entirely), but the lib-y syntax is used beyond the ordinary use in lib/ and arch/*/lib/. Examples: - drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/Makefile builds lib.a, which is linked into vmlinux in the own way (arm64), or linked to the decompressor (arm, x86). - arch/alpha/lib/Makefile builds lib.a which is linked not only to vmlinux, but also to bootloaders in arch/alpha/boot/Makefile. - arch/xtensa/boot/lib/Makefile builds lib.a for use from arch/xtensa/boot/boot-redboot/Makefile. One more thing, adding everything to obj-y would increase the vmlinux size of allnoconfig (or tinyconfig). For less impact, I tweaked the destination of lib.a at the top Makefile; when CONFIG_MODULES=y, lib.a goes to KBUILD_VMLINUX_OBJS, which is forcibly linked to vmlinux, otherwise lib.a goes to KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS as before. The size impact for normal usecases is quite small since at lease one symbol in every lib-y object is eventually called by someone. In case you are intrested, here are the figures. x86_64_defconfig: text data bss dec hex filename 19566602 5422072 1589328 26578002 1958c52 vmlinux.before 19566932 5422104 1589328 26578364 1958dbc vmlinux.after The case with the biggest impact is allnoconfig + CONFIG_MODULES=y. ARCH=x86 allnoconfig + CONFIG_MODULES=y: text data bss dec hex filename 1175162 254740 1220608 2650510 28718e vmlinux.before 1177974 254836 1220608 2653418 287cea vmlinux.after Hopefully this is still not a big deal. The per-file trimming with the static library is not so effective after all. If fine-grained optimization is desired, some architectures support CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, which trims dead code per-symbol basis. When LTO is supported in mainline, even better optimization will be possible.

2020-04-09kbuild: Enable -Wtautological-compareNathan Chancellor
Currently, we disable -Wtautological-compare, which in turn disables a bunch of more specific tautological comparison warnings that are useful for the kernel such as -Wtautological-bitwise-compare. See clang's documentation below for the other warnings that are suppressed by -Wtautological-compare. Now that all of the major/noisy warnings have been fixed, enable -Wtautological-compare so that more issues can be caught at build time by various continuous integration setups. -Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare is kept disabled under a normal build but visible at W=1 because there are places in the kernel where a constant or variable size can change based on the kernel configuration. These are not fixed in a clean/concise way and the ones I have audited so far appear to be harmless. It is not a subgroup but rather just one warning so we do not lose out on much coverage by default.
