[ Upstream commit d42f0c6ad502c9f612410e125ebdf290cce8bdc3 ]
The latest version of grep claims the egrep is now obsolete so the build
now contains warnings that look like:
egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E
fix this up by moving the related file to use "grep -E" instead.
Here are the steps to install the latest grep:
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-3.8.tar.gz
tar xf grep-3.8.tar.gz
cd grep-3.8 && ./configure && make
sudo make install
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH

The -nostdlib option requests the compiler to not use the standard
system startup files or libraries when linking. It is effective only
when $(CC) is used as a linker driver.
Since commit 2ff906994b6c ("MIPS: VDSO: Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to
link VDSO"), $(LD) is directly used, hence -nostdlib is unneeded.

Commit ccbef1674a15 ("Kbuild, lto: add ld-version and ld-ifversion
macros") introduced scripts/ld-version.sh for GCC LTO.
At that time, this script handled 5 version fields because GCC LTO
needed the downstream binutils. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)
The code snippet from the submitted patch was as follows:
# We need HJ Lu's Linux binutils because mainline binutils does not
# support mixing assembler and LTO code in the same ld -r object.
# XXX check if the gcc plugin ld is the expected one too
# XXX some Fedora binutils should also support it. How to check for that?
ifeq ($(call ld-ifversion,-ge,22710001,y),y)
...
However, GCC LTO was not merged into the mainline after all.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)
So, the 4th and 5th fields were never used, and finally removed by
commit 0d61ed17dd30 ("ld-version: Drop the 4th and 5th version
components").
Since then, the last 4-digits returned by this script is always zeros.
Remove the meaningless last 4-digits. This makes the version format
consistent with GCC_VERSION, CLANG_VERSION, LLD_VERSION.

Commit ee67855ecd9d ("MIPS: vdso: Allow clang's --target flag in VDSO
cflags") allowed the '--target=' flag from the main Makefile to filter
through to the vDSO. However, it did not bring any of the other clang
specific flags for controlling the integrated assembler and the GNU
tools locations (--prefix=, --gcc-toolchain=, and -no-integrated-as).
Without these, we will get a warning (visible with tinyconfig):
arch/mips/vdso/elf.S:14:1: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per
compilation unit
.pushsection .note.Linux, "a",@note ; .balign 4 ; .long 2f - 1f ; .long

^
arch/mips/vdso/elf.S:34:2: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per
compilation unit
.section .mips_abiflags, "a"
^
All of these flags are bundled up under CLANG_FLAGS in the main Makefile
and exported so that they can be added to Makefiles that set their own
CFLAGS. Use this value instead of filtering out '--target=' so there is
no warning and all of the tools are properly used.

Don't allow splitting of vm_special_mapping's. It affects vdso/vvar

Some Makefiles already pass -fno-stack-protector unconditionally.
For example, arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile, arch/x86/xen/Makefile.
No problem report so far about hard-coding this option. So, we can
assume all supported compilers know -fno-stack-protector.
GCC 4.8 and Clang support this option (https://godbolt.org/z/_HDGzN)
Get rid of cc-option from -fno-stack-protector.
Remove CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE, which is always 'y'.
Note:
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile adds -fno-stack-protector twice, first
unconditionally, and second conditionally. I removed the second one.

Currently, when linking with ld.lld, this warning pops up:
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:70: MIPS VDSO requires binutils >= 2.25
CONFIG_LD_VERSION is set with scripts/ld-version.sh, which is specific
to GNU ld. It returns 0 for ld.lld so CONFIG_MIPS_LD_CAN_LINK_VDSO does
not set.
ld.lld has a completely different versioning scheme (as it follows
LLVM's versioning) and it does not have the issue mentioned in the
comment block so it should be allowed to link the VDSO.
With this patch, the VDSO successfully links and shows P_MIPS_PC32 in
vgettimeofday.o.

Currently, the VDSO is being linked through $(CC). This does not match
how the rest of the kernel links objects, which is through the $(LD)
variable.
When clang is built in a default configuration, it first attempts to use
the target triple's default linker then the system's default linker,
unless told otherwise through -fuse-ld=... We do not use -fuse-ld=
because it can be brittle and we have support for invoking $(LD)
directly. See commit fe00e50b2db8c ("ARM: 8858/1: vdso: use $(LD)
instead of $(CC) to link VDSO") and commit 691efbedc60d2 ("arm64: vdso:
use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO") for examples of doing this in
the VDSO.
Do the same thing here. Replace the custom linking logic with $(cmd_ld)
and ldflags-y so that $(LD) is respected. We need to explicitly add two
flags to the linker that were implicitly passed by the compiler:
-G 0 (which comes from ccflags-vdso) and --eh-frame-hdr.

get_emulation in ld/ldmain.c). This is true of current trunk and 2.23,
which is the minimum supported version for the kernel:

After commit 9553d16fa671 ("init/kconfig: Add LD_VERSION Kconfig"), we
have access to GNU ld's version at configuration time. As a result, we
can make it clearer under what configuration circumstances the MIPS VDSO
needs to be disabled.
This is a prerequisite for getting rid of the MIPS VDSO binutils
warning and linking the VDSO when LD is ld.lld. Wrapping the call to
ld-ifversion with CONFIG_LD_IS_LLD does not work because the config
values are wiped away during 'make clean'.

Clang does not support this option and errors out:
clang-11: error: unknown argument: '-mexplicit-relocs'
Clang does not appear to need this flag like GCC does because the jalr
check that was added in commit 976c23af3ee5 ("mips: vdso: add build
time check that no 'jalr t9' calls left") passes just fine with
$ make ARCH=mips CC=clang CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- malta_defconfig arch/mips/vdso/
even before commit d3f703c4359f ("mips: vdso: fix 'jalr t9' crash in

-mrelax-pic-calls has been supported since clang 9, which is the
earliest version that could build a working MIPS kernel, and it is the
default for clang so just leave it be.

vdso shared object cannot have GOT based PIC 'jalr t9' calls
because nobody set GOT table in vdso. Contributing into vdso
.o files are compiled in PIC mode and as result for internal
static functions calls compiler will generate 'jalr t9'
instructions. Those are supposed to be converted into PC
relative 'bal' calls by linker when relocation are processed.
Mips global GOT entries do have dynamic relocations and they
will be caught by cmd_vdso_check Makefile rule. Static PIC
calls go through mips local GOT entries that do not have
dynamic relocations. For those 'jalr t9' calls could be present
but without dynamic relocations and they need to be converted
to 'bal' calls by linker.
Add additional build time check to make sure that no 'jalr t9'
slip through because of some toolchain misconfiguration that
prevents 'jalr t9' to 'bal' conversion.

A check we're about to add to pick up on function calls that depend on
bogus use of the GOT in the VDSO picked up on instances of such function
calls in microMIPS builds. Since the code appears genuinely problematic,
and given the relatively small amount of use & testing that microMIPS
sees, go ahead & disable the VDSO for microMIPS builds.

Observed that when kernel is built with Yocto mips64-poky-linux-gcc,
and mips64-poky-linux-gnun32-gcc toolchain, resulting vdso contains
'jalr t9' instructions in its code and since in vdso case nobody
sets GOT table code crashes when instruction reached. On other hand
observed that when kernel is built mips-poky-linux-gcc toolchain, the
same 'jalr t9' instruction are replaced with PC relative function
calls using 'bal' instructions.
The difference boils down to -mrelax-pic-calls and -mexplicit-relocs
gcc options that gets different default values depending on gcc
target triplets and corresponding binutils. -mrelax-pic-calls got
enabled by default only in mips-poky-linux-gcc case. MIPS binutils
ld relies on R_MIPS_JALR relocation to convert 'jalr t9' into 'bal'
and such relocation is generated only if -mrelax-pic-calls option
is on.
Please note 'jalr t9' conversion to 'bal' can happen only to static
functions. These static PIC calls use mips local GOT entries that
are supposed to be filled with start of DSO value by run-time linker
(missing in VDSO case) and they do not have dynamic relocations.
Global mips GOT entries must have dynamic relocations and they should
be prevented by cmd_vdso_check Makefile rule.
Solution call out -mrelax-pic-calls and -mexplicit-relocs options
explicitly while compiling MIPS vdso code. That would get correct
and consistent between different toolchains behaviour.

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.
It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.
This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs
So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)
I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.
The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

- Improve cop0 counter synchronization behaviour whilst onlining CPUs
by running with interrupts disabled.
- Better match FPU behaviour when emulating multiply-accumulate
instructions on pre-r6 systems that implement IEEE754-2008 style
MACs.
- Loongson64 kernels now build using the MIPS64r2 ISA, allowing them

The libc provides a discovery mechanism for vDSO library and its
symbols. When a symbol is not exposed by the vDSOs the libc falls back
on the system calls.
With the introduction of the unified vDSO library on mips this behavior
is not honored anymore by the kernel in the case of gettimeofday().
The issue has been noticed and reported due to a dhclient failure on the
CI20 board:

Versions of binutils prior to 2.25 are unable to link our VDSO due to an
unsupported R_MIPS_PC32 relocation generated by the ".word _start - ."
line of the inline asm in get_vdso_base(). As such, the intent is that
when building with binutils older than 2.25 we don't build code for
gettimeofday() & friends in the VDSO that rely upon get_vdso_base().
Commit 24640f233b46 ("mips: Add support for generic vDSO") converted us
to using generic VDSO infrastructure, and as part of that the
gettimeofday() functionality moved to a new vgettimeofday.c file. The
check for binutils < 2.25 wasn't updated to handle this new filename,
and so it continues trying to remove the old unused filename from the
build. The end result is that we try to include the gettimeofday() code
in builds that will fail to link.
Fix this by updating the binutils < 2.25 case to remove vgettimeofday.c
from obj-vdso-y, rather than gettimeofday.c.

The generic VDSO implementation uses the Y2038 safe clock_gettime64() and
clock_getres_time64() syscalls as fallback for 32bit VDSO. This breaks
seccomp setups because these syscalls might be not (yet) allowed.
Implement the 32bit variants which use the legacy syscalls and select the
variant in the core library.
The 64bit time variants are not removed because they are required for the
time64 based vdso accessors.

When generating vdso-o32.lds & vdso-n32.lds for use with programs
running as compat ABIs under 64b kernels, we previously haven't included
the compiler flags that are supposedly common to all ABIs - ie. those in
the ccflags-vdso variable.
This is problematic in cases where we need to provide the -m%-float flag
in order to ensure that we don't attempt to use a floating point ABI
that's incompatible with the target CPU & ABI. For example a toolchain
using current gcc trunk configured --with-fp-32=xx fails to build a
64r6el_defconfig kernel with the following error:
cc1: error: '-march=mips1' requires '-mfp32'
make[2]: *** [arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:135: arch/mips/vdso/vdso-o32.lds] Error 1
Include $(ccflags-vdso) for the compat VDSO .lds builds, just as it is
included for the native VDSO .lds & when compiling objects for the
compat VDSOs. This ensures we consistently provide the -msoft-float flag
amongst others, avoiding the problem by ensuring we're agnostic to the
toolchain defaults.

The MIPS VDSO build currently doesn't provide the -msoft-float flag to
the compiler as the kernel proper does. This results in an attempt to
use the compiler's default floating point configuration, which can be
problematic in cases where this is incompatible with the target CPU's
-march= flag. For example decstation_defconfig fails to build using
toolchains in which gcc was configured --with-fp-32=xx with the
following error:
LDS arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds
cc1: error: '-march=r3000' requires '-mfp32'
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:379: arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds] Error 1
The kernel proper avoids this error because we build with the
-msoft-float compiler flag, rather than using the compiler's default.
Pass this flag through to the VDSO build so that it too becomes agnostic
to the toolchain's floating point configuration.
Note that this is filtered out from KBUILD_CFLAGS rather than simply
always using -msoft-float such that if we switch the kernel to use
-mno-float in the future the VDSO will automatically inherit the change.
The VDSO doesn't actually include any floating point code, and its
.MIPS.abiflags section is already manually generated to specify that
it's compatible with any floating point ABI. As such this change should
have no effect on the resulting VDSO, apart from fixing the build
failure for affected toolchains.

We exclude the VDSO from this because its build doesn't include the

When building the VDSO with clang it appears to invoke ld without
specifying endianness, even though clang itself was provided with a -EB
or -EL flag. This results in the build failing due to a mismatch between
the objects that are the input to ld, and the output it is attempting to
create:
VDSO arch/mips/vdso/vdso.so.dbg.raw
mips-linux-ld: arch/mips/vdso/elf.o: compiled for a big endian system
and target is little endian
mips-linux-ld: arch/mips/vdso/elf.o: endianness incompatible with that
of the selected emulation
mips-linux-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file
arch/mips/vdso/elf.o
...
Work around this problem by explicitly specifying the link endianness
using -Wl,-EB or -Wl,-EL when -EB or -EL are part of KBUILD_CFLAGS. This
resolves the build failure when using clang, and doesn't have any
negative effect on gcc.

Our genvdso tool performs some rather paranoid checking that the VDSO
library isn't attempting to make use of a GOT by constraining the number
of entries that the GOT is allowed to contain to the minimum 2 entries
that are always generated by binutils.
Unfortunately lld prior to revision 334390 generates a third entry,
which is unused & thus harmless but falls foul of genvdso's checks &
causes the build to fail.
Since we already check that the VDSO contains no relocations it seems
reasonable to presume that it also doesn't contain use of a GOT, which
would involve relocations. Thus rather than attempting to work around
this issue by allowing 3 GOT entries when using lld, simply remove the
GOT checks which seem overly paranoid.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
