2021-04-25kbuild: check the minimum assembler version in KconfigMasahiro Yamada
Documentation/process/changes.rst defines the minimum assembler version (binutils version), but we have never checked it in the build time. Kbuild never invokes 'as' directly because all assembly files in the kernel tree are *.S, hence must be preprocessed. I do not expect raw assembly source files (*.s) would be added to the kernel tree. Therefore, we always use $(CC) as the assembler driver, and commit aa824e0c962b ("kbuild: remove AS variable") removed 'AS'. However, we are still interested in the version of the assembler acting behind. As usual, the --version option prints the version string. $ as --version | head -n 1 GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1 But, we do not have $(AS). So, we can add the -Wa prefix so that $(CC) passes --version down to the backing assembler. $ gcc -Wa,--version | head -n 1 gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. OK, we need to input something to satisfy gcc. $ gcc -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1 GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1 The combination of Clang and GNU assembler works in the same way: $ clang -no-integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1 GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1 Clang with the integrated assembler fails like this: $ clang -integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1 clang: error: unsupported argument '--version' to option 'Wa,' For the last case, checking the error message is fragile. If the proposal for -Wa,--version support [1] is accepted, this may not be even an error in the future. One easy way is to check if -integrated-as is present in the passed arguments. We did not pass -integrated-as to CLANG_FLAGS before, but we can make it explicit. Nathan pointed out -integrated-as is the default for all of the architectures/targets that the kernel cares about, but it goes along with "explicit is better than implicit" policy. [2] With all this in my mind, I implemented scripts/as-version.sh to check the assembler version in Kconfig time. $ scripts/as-version.sh gcc GNU 23501 $ scripts/as-version.sh clang -no-integrated-as GNU 23501 $ scripts/as-version.sh clang -integrated-as LLVM 0 [1]: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1320 [2]: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kbuild/20210307044253.v3h47ucq6ng25iay@archlinux-ax161/ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>

2021-02-16kbuild: check the minimum compiler version in KconfigMasahiro Yamada
Paul Gortmaker reported a regression in the GCC version check. [1] If you use GCC 4.8, the build breaks before showing the error message "error Sorry, your version of GCC is too old - please use 4.9 or newer." I do not want to apply his fix-up since it implies we would not be able to remove any cc-option test. Anyway, I admit checking the GCC version in <linux/compiler-gcc.h> is too late. Almost at the same time, Linus also suggested to move the compiler version error to Kconfig time. [2] I unified the two similar scripts, gcc-version.sh and clang-version.sh into cc-version.sh. The old scripts invoked the compiler multiple times (3 times for gcc-version.sh, 4 times for clang-version.sh). I refactored the code so the new one invokes the compiler just once, and also tried my best to use shell-builtin commands where possible. The new script runs faster. $ time ./scripts/clang-version.sh clang 120000 real 0m0.029s user 0m0.012s sys 0m0.021s $ time ./scripts/cc-version.sh clang Clang 120000 real 0m0.009s user 0m0.006s sys 0m0.004s cc-version.sh also shows an error message if the compiler is too old: $ make defconfig CC=clang-9 *** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig' *** *** Compiler is too old. *** Your Clang version: 9.0.1 *** Minimum Clang version: 10.0.1 *** scripts/Kconfig.include:46: Sorry, this compiler is not supported. make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile:81: defconfig] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:602: defconfig] Error 2 The new script takes care of ICC because we have <linux/compiler-intel.h> although I am not sure if building the kernel with ICC is well-supported.

2020-06-17kconfig: unify cc-option and as-optionMasahiro Yamada
cc-option and as-option are almost the same; both pass the flag to $(CC). The main difference is the cc-option stops before the assemble stage (-S option) whereas as-option stops after (-c option). I chose -S because it is slightly faster, but $(cc-option,-gz=zlib) returns a wrong result (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/9/1529). It has been fixed by commit 7b16994437c7 ("Makefile: Improve compressed debug info support detection"), but the assembler should always be invoked for more reliable compiler option tests. However, you cannot simply replace -S with -c because the following code in lib/Kconfig.debug would break: depends on $(cc-option,-gsplit-dwarf) The combination of -c and -gsplit-dwarf does not accept /dev/null as output. $ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -S -x c - -o /dev/null $ echo $? 0 $ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -c -x c - -o /dev/null objcopy: Warning: '/dev/null' is not an ordinary file $ echo $? 1 $ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -c -x c - -o tmp.o $ echo $? 0 There is another flag that creates an separate file based on the object file path: $ cat /dev/null | gcc -ftest-coverage -c -x c - -o /dev/null <stdin>:1: error: cannot open /dev/null.gcno So, we cannot use /dev/null to sink the output. Align the cc-option implementation with scripts/Kbuild.include. With -c option used in cc-option, as-option is unneeded.

Nobody was opposed to raising minimum GCC version to 4.8 [1] So, we will drop GCC <= 4.7 support sooner or later. We always use C++ compiler for building plugins for GCC >= 4.8. This commit drops the plugin support for GCC <= 4.7 a bit earlier, which allows us to dump lots of code.

2020-03-12kconfig: introduce m32-flag and m64-flagMasahiro Yamada
When a compiler supports multiple architectures, some compiler features can be dependent on the target architecture. This is typical for Clang, which supports multiple LLVM backends. Even for GCC, we need to take care of biarch compiler cases. It is not a problem when we evaluate cc-option in Makefiles because cc-option is tested against the flag in question + $(KBUILD_CFLAGS). The cc-option in Kconfig, on the other hand, does not accumulate tested flags. Due to this simplification, it could potentially test cc-option against a different target. At first, Kconfig always evaluated cc-option against the host architecture. Since commit e8de12fb7cde ("kbuild: Check for unknown options with cc-option usage in Kconfig and clang"), in case of cross-compiling with Clang, the target triple is correctly passed to Kconfig. The case with biarch GCC (and native build with Clang) is still not handled properly. We need to pass some flags to specify the target machine bit. Due to the design, all the macros in Kconfig are expanded in the parse stage, where we do not know the target bit size yet. For example, arch/x86/Kconfig allows a user to toggle CONFIG_64BIT. If a compiler flag -foo depends on the machine bit, it must be tested twice, one with -m32 and the other with -m64. However, -m32/-m64 are not always recognized. So, this commits adds m64-flag and m32-flag macros. They expand to -m32, -m64, respectively if supported. Or, they expand to an empty string if unsupported. The typical usage is like this: config FOO bool default $(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -foo) if 64BIT default $(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -foo) This is clumsy, but there is no elegant way to handle this in the current static macro expansion. There was discussion for static functions vs dynamic functions. The consensus was to go as far as possible with the static functions.

2020-01-22kbuild: use -S instead of -E for precise cc-option test in KconfigMasahiro Yamada
Currently, -E (stop after the preprocessing stage) is used to check whether the given compiler flag is supported. While it is faster than -S (or -c), it can be false-positive. You need to run the compilation proper to check the flag more precisely. For example, -E and -S disagree about the support of "--param asan-instrument-allocas=1". $ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -E -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null $ echo $? 0 $ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -S -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null cc1: error: invalid --param name ‘asan-instrument-allocas’; did you mean ‘asan-instrument-writes’? $ echo $? 1 Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

2019-08-14kbuild: Fail if gold linker is detectedThomas Gleixner
The gold linker has known issues of failing the build both in random and in predictible ways: - The x86/X32 VDSO build fails with: arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime-x32.o:vclock_gettime.c:function do_hres: error: relocation overflow: reference to 'hvclock_page' That's a known issue for years and the usual workaround is to disable CONFIG_X86_32 - A recent build failure is caused by turning a relocation into an absolute one for unknown reasons. See link below. - There are a couple of gold workarounds applied already, but reports about broken builds with ld.gold keep coming in on a regular base and in most cases the root cause is unclear. In context of the most recent fail H.J. stated: "Since building a workable kernel for different kernel configurations isn't a requirement for gold, I don't recommend gold for kernel." So instead of dealing with attempts to duct tape gold support without understanding the root cause and without support from the gold folks, fail the build when gold is detected.

2019-08-01kbuild: Check for unknown options with cc-option usage in Kconfig and clangStephen Boyd
If the particular version of clang a user has doesn't enable -Werror=unknown-warning-option by default, even though it is the default[1], then make sure to pass the option to the Kconfig cc-option command so that testing options from Kconfig files works properly. Otherwise, depending on the default values setup in the clang toolchain we will silently assume options such as -Wmaybe-uninitialized are supported by clang, when they really aren't. A compilation issue only started happening for me once commit 589834b3a009 ("kbuild: Add -Werror=unknown-warning-option to CLANG_FLAGS") was applied on top of commit b303c6df80c9 ("kbuild: compute false-positive -Wmaybe-uninitialized cases in Kconfig"). This leads kbuild to try and test for the existence of the -Wmaybe-uninitialized flag with the cc-option command in scripts/Kconfig.include, and it doesn't see an error returned from the option test so it sets the config value to Y. Then the Makefile tries to pass the unknown option on the command line and -Werror=unknown-warning-option catches the invalid option and breaks the build. Before commit 589834b3a009 ("kbuild: Add -Werror=unknown-warning-option to CLANG_FLAGS") the build works fine, but any cc-option test of a warning option in Kconfig files silently evaluates to true, even if the warning option flag isn't supported on clang. Note: This doesn't change cc-option usages in Makefiles because those use a different rule that includes KBUILD_CFLAGS by default (see the __cc-option command in scripts/Kbuild.incluide). The KBUILD_CFLAGS variable already has the -Werror=unknown-warning-option flag set. Thanks to Doug for pointing out the different rule.
