Merge patch series from Nick Desaulniers to update the minimum gcc
version to 5.1.
This is some of the left-overs from the merge window that I didn't want
to deal with yesterday, so it comes in after -rc1 but was sent before.
Gcc-4.9 support has been an annoyance for some time, and with -Werror I
had the choice of applying a fairly big patch from Kees Cook to remove a
fair number of initializer warnings (still leaving some), or this patch
series from Nick that just removes the source of the problem.
The initializer cleanups might still be worth it regardless, but
honestly, I preferred just tackling the problem with gcc-4.9 head-on.
We've been more aggressiuve about no longer having to care about
compilers that were released a long time ago, and I think it's been a
good thing.
I added a couple of patches on top to sort out a few left-overs now that
we no longer support gcc-4.x.
As noted by Arnd, as a result of this minimum compiler version upgrade
we can probably change our use of '--std=gnu89' to '--std=gnu11', and
finally start using local loop declarations etc. But this series does
_not_ yet do that.

When using gcc (SUSE Linux) 7.5.0 (on openSUSE 15.3), I see a build
warning:
kernel/trace/trace_osnoise.c: In function 'start_kthread':
kernel/trace/trace_osnoise.c:1461:8: warning: 'main' is usually a function [-Wmain]
void *main = osnoise_main;
^~~~
Quieten that warning by using "-Wno-main". It's OK to use "main" as a
declaration name in the kernel.
Build-tested on most ARCHes.
[ v2: only do it for gcc, since clang doesn't have that particular warning ]

... but make it a config option so that broken environments can disable
it when required.
We really should always have a clean build, and will disable specific
over-eager warnings as required, if we can't fix them. But while I
fairly religiously enforce that in my own tree, it doesn't get enforced
by various build robots that don't necessarily report warnings.
So this just makes '-Werror' a default compiler flag, but allows people
to disable it for their configuration if they have some particular
issues.
Occasionally, new compiler versions end up enabling new warnings, and it
can take a while before we have them fixed (or the warnings disabled if
that is what it takes), so the config option allows for that situation.
Hopefully this will mean that I get fewer pull requests that have new
warnings that were not noticed by various automation we have in place.
Knock wood.

Turning on -Wformat does not reveal any instances of this warning across
several different builds so remove this line to keep the number of
disabled warnings as slim as possible.
This has been disabled since commit 61163efae020 ("kbuild: LLVMLinux:
Add Kbuild support for building kernel with Clang"), which does not
explain exactly why it was turned off but since it was so long ago in
terms of both the kernel and LLVM so it is possible that some bug got
fixed along the way.

cc-option, cc-option-yn, and cc-disable-warning all invoke the compiler
during build time, and can slow down the build when these checks become
stale for our supported compilers, whose minimally supported versions
increases over time. See Documentation/process/changes.rst for the
current supported minimal versions (GCC 4.9+, clang 10.0.1+). Compiler
version support for these flags may be verified on godbolt.org.
The following flags are GCC only and supported since at least GCC 4.9.
Remove cc-option and cc-disable-warning tests.
* -fno-tree-loop-im
* -Wno-maybe-uninitialized
* -fno-reorder-blocks
* -fno-ipa-cp-clone
* -fno-partial-inlining
* -femit-struct-debug-baseonly
* -fno-inline-functions-called-once
* -fconserve-stack
The following flags are supported by all supported versions of GCC and
Clang. Remove their cc-option, cc-option-yn, and cc-disable-warning tests.
* -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks
* -fno-var-tracking
* -Wno-array-bounds
The following configs are made dependent on GCC, since they use GCC
specific flags.
* READABLE_ASM
* DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH
-mfentry was not supported by s390-linux-gnu-gcc until gcc-9+, add a
comment.
--param=allow-store-data-races=0 was renamed to -fno-allow-store-data-races
in the GCC 10 release; add a comment.
-Wmaybe-uninitialized (GCC specific) was being added for CONFIG_GCOV,
then again unconditionally; add it only once.
Also, base RETPOLINE_CFLAGS and RETPOLINE_VDSO_CFLAGS on CONFIC_CC_IS_*
then remove cc-option tests for Clang.

Commit 23243c1ace9f ("arch: use cross_compiling to check whether it is
a cross build or not") broke 64-bit parisc builds on 32-bit parisc
systems.
Helge mentioned:
- 64-bit parisc userspace is not supported yet [1]
- hppa gcc does not support "-m64" flag [2]
That means, parisc developers working on a 32-bit parisc machine need
to use hppa64-linux-gnu-gcc (cross compiler) for building the 64-bit
parisc kernel.
After the offending commit, gcc is used in such a case because
both $(SRCARCH) and $(SUBARCH) are 'parisc', hence cross_compiling is
unset.
A correct way is to introduce ARCH=parisc64 because building the 64-bit
parisc kernel on a 32-bit parisc system is not exactly a native build,
but rather a semi-cross build.

LLVM_IAS is the user interface to set the -(no-)integrated-as flag,
and it should be used only for that purpose.
LLVM_IAS is checked in some places to determine the assembler type,
but it is not precise.
For example,
$ make CC=gcc LLVM_IAS=1
... will use the GNU assembler (i.e. binutils) since LLVM_IAS=1 is
effective only when $(CC) is clang.
Of course, 'CC=gcc LLVM_IAS=1' is an odd combination, but the build
system can be more robust against such insane input.
Commit ba64beb17493a ("kbuild: check the minimum assembler version in
Kconfig") introduced CONFIG_AS_IS_GNU/LLVM, which is more precise
because Kconfig checks the version string from the assembler in use.

It is always safe to use the same compiler for the kernel and external
modules, but in reality, some distributions such as Fedora release a
different version of GCC from the one used for building the kernel.
There was a long discussion about mixing different compilers [1].
I do not repeat it here, but at least, showing a heads up in that
case is better than nothing.
Linus suggested [2]:
And a warning might be more palatable even if different compiler
version work fine together. Just a heads up on "it looks like you
might be mixing compiler versions" is a valid note, and isn't
necessarily wrong. Even when they work well together, maybe you want
to have people at least _aware_ of it.
This commit shows a warning unless the compiler is exactly the same.
warning: the compiler differs from the one used to build the kernel
The kernel was built by: gcc (GCC) 11.1.1 20210531 (Red Hat 11.1.1-3)
You are using: gcc (GCC) 11.2.1 20210728 (Red Hat 11.2.1-1)
Check the difference, and if it is OK with you, please proceed at your
risk.
To avoid the locale issue as in commit bcbcf50f5218 ("kbuild: fix
ld-version.sh to not be affected by locale"), pass LC_ALL=C to

As explained in commit 3204a7fb98a3 ("kbuild: prefix $(srctree)/ to some

I already fixed up the top Makefile, but some arch Makefiles (mips, um,

Fix them up so 'need-sub-make := 1' can go away for this case.

When building ARCH=riscv allmodconfig with llvm-objcopy, the objcopy
version warning from this script appears:
WARNING: could not find objcopy version or version is less than 2.17.
Local function references are disabled.
The check_objcopy() function in scripts/recordmcount.pl is set up to
parse GNU objcopy's version string, not llvm-objcopy's, which triggers
the warning.
Commit 799c43415442 ("kbuild: thin archives make default for all archs")
made binutils 2.20 mandatory and commit ba64beb17493 ("kbuild: check the
minimum assembler version in Kconfig") enforces this at configuration
time so just remove check_objcopy() and $can_use_local instead, assuming
--globalize-symbol is always available.
llvm-objcopy has supported --globalize-symbol since LLVM 7.0.0 in 2018
and the minimum version for building the kernel with LLVM is 10.0.1 so
there is no issue introduced:

When CONFIG_ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS is enabled, build the kernel with
"-fzero-call-used-regs=used-gpr" (in GCC 11). This option will zero any
caller-used register contents just before returning from a function,
ensuring that temporary values are not leaked beyond the function
boundary. This means that register contents are less likely to be
available for side channel attacks and information exposures.
Additionally this helps reduce the number of useful ROP gadgets in the
kernel image by about 20%:

For an x86_64 parallel build tests, this has a less than 1% performance
impact, and grows the image size less than 1%:

Impact for other architectures may vary. For example, arm64 sees a 5.5%
image size growth, mainly due to needing to always clear x16 and x17:

This reverts commit b7eb335e26a9c7f258c96b3962c283c379d3ede0.
It turns out that the problem with the clang -Wimplicit-fallthrough
warning is not about the kernel source code, but about clang itself, and
that the warning is unusable until clang fixes its broken ways.
In particular, when you enable this warning for clang, you not only get
warnings about implicit fallthroughs. You also get this:
warning: fallthrough annotation in unreachable code [-Wimplicit-fallthrough]
which is completely broken becasue it
(a) doesn't even tell you where the problem is (seriously: no line
numbers, no filename, no nothing).
(b) is fundamentally broken anyway, because there are perfectly valid
reasons to have a fallthrough statement even if it turns out that
it can perhaps not be reached.
In the kernel, an example of that second case is code in the scheduler:
switch (state) {
case cpuset:
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CPUSETS)) {
cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback(p);
state = possible;
break;
}
fallthrough;
case possible:
where if CONFIG_CPUSETS is enabled you actually never hit the
fallthrough case at all. But that in no way makes the fallthrough
wrong.
So the warning is completely broken, and enabling it for clang is a very
bad idea.
In the meantime, we can keep the gcc option enabled, and make the gcc
build use
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=5
which means that we will at least continue to require a proper
fallthrough statement, and that gcc won't silently accept the magic
comment versions. Because gcc does this all correctly, and while the odd
"=5" part is kind of obscure, it's documented in [1]:
"-Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 doesn’t recognize any comments as
fallthrough comments, only attributes disable the warning"
so if clang ever fixes its bad behavior we can try enabling it there again.

With the recent fixes for fallthrough warnings, it is now possible to
enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang.
It's important to mention that since we have adopted the use of the
pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough; we also want to avoid having more
/* fall through */ comments being introduced. Notice that contrary
to GCC, Clang doesn't recognize any comments as implicit fall-through
markings when the -Wimplicit-fallthrough option is enabled. So, in
order to avoid having more comments being introduced, we have to use
the option -Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 for GCC, which similar to Clang,
will cause a warning in case a code comment is intended to be used
as a fall-through marking.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's a reasonable amount here and the juicy details are all below.
It's worth noting that the MTE/KASAN changes strayed outside of our
usual directories due to core mm changes and some associated changes
to some other architectures; Andrew asked for us to carry these [1]
rather that take them via the -mm tree.
Summary:
- Optimise SVE switching for CPUs with 128-bit implementations.
- Fix output format from SVE selftest.
- Add support for versions v1.2 and 1.3 of the SMC calling
convention.
- Allow Pointer Authentication to be configured independently for
kernel and userspace.
- PMU driver cleanups for managing IRQ affinity and exposing event
attributes via sysfs.
- KASAN optimisations for both hardware tagging (MTE) and out-of-line
software tagging implementations.
- Relax frame record alignment requirements to facilitate 8-byte
alignment with KASAN and Clang.
- Cleanup of page-table definitions and removal of unused memory
types.
- Reduction of ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN back to 64 bytes.
- Refactoring of our instruction decoding routines and addition of
some missing encodings.
- Move entry code moved into C and hardened against harmful compiler
instrumentation.
- Update booting requirements for the FEAT_HCX feature, added to v8.7
of the architecture.
- Fix resume from idle when pNMI is being used.
- Additional CPU sanity checks for MTE and preparatory changes for
systems where not all of the CPUs support 32-bit EL0.
- Update our kernel string routines to the latest Cortex Strings
implementation.
- Big cleanup of our cache maintenance routines, which were
confusingly named and inconsistent in their implementations.
- Tweak linker flags so that GDB can understand vmlinux when using
RELR relocations.
- Boot path cleanups to enable early initialisation of per-cpu
operations needed by KCSAN.
- Non-critical fixes and miscellaneous cleanup"

M= (or KBUILD_EXTMOD) generally expects a directory path without any
trailing slashes, like M=a/b/c.
If you add a trailing slash, like M=a/b/c/, you will get ugly build
logs (two slashes in a series), but it still works fine as long as it
is consistent between 'make modules' and 'make modules_install'.
The following commands correctly build and install the modules.
$ make M=a/b/c/ modules
$ sudo make M=a/b/c/ modules_install
Since commit ccae4cfa7bfb ("kbuild: refactor scripts/Makefile.modinst"),
a problem happens if you add a trailing slash only for modules_install.
$ make M=a/b/c modules
$ sudo make M=a/b/c/ modules_install
No module is installed in this case, Johannes Berg reported. [1]
Trim any trailing slashes from $(KBUILD_EXTMOD).
I used the 'dirname' command to remove all the trailing slashes in
case someone adds more slashes like M=a/b/c/////. The Make's built-in
function, $(dir ...) cannot take care of such a case.

Since LLVM commit fc018eb, the '-warn-stack-size' flag has been dropped
[1], leading to the following error message when building with Clang-13
and LLD-13:
ld.lld: error: -plugin-opt=-: ld.lld: Unknown command line argument

-stack-alignment only on LLD < 13.0.0") , make '-warn-stack-size'
conditional on LLD < 13.0.0.

GDB produces the following warning when debugging kernels built with
CONFIG_RELR:
BFD: /android0/linux-next/vmlinux: unknown type [0x13] section `.relr.dyn'
when loading a kernel built with CONFIG_RELR into GDB. It can also
prevent debugging symbols using such relocations.
Peter sugguests:
[That flag] means that lld will use dynamic tags and section type
numbers in the OS-specific range rather than the generic range. The
kernel itself doesn't care about these numbers; it determines the
location of the RELR section using symbols defined by a linker script.
