2022-09-29kbuild: unify two modpost invocationsMasahiro Yamada
Currently, modpost is executed twice; first for vmlinux, second for modules. This commit merges them. Current build flow ================== 1) build obj-y and obj-m objects 2) link vmlinux.o 3) modpost for vmlinux 4) link vmlinux 5) modpost for modules 6) link modules (*.ko) The build steps 1) through 6) are serialized, that is, modules are built after vmlinux. You do not get benefits of parallel builds when scripts/link-vmlinux.sh is being run. New build flow ============== 1) build obj-y and obj-m objects 2) link vmlinux.o 3) modpost for vmlinux and modules 4a) link vmlinux 4b) link modules (*.ko) In the new build flow, modpost is invoked just once. vmlinux and modules are built in parallel. One exception is CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES=y, where modules depend on vmlinux.

2022-05-29kbuild: do not create *.prelink.o for Clang LTO or IBTMasahiro Yamada
When CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, additional intermediate *.prelink.o is created for each module. Also, objtool is postponed until LLVM IR is converted to ELF. CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT works in a similar way to postpone objtool until objects are merged together. This commit stops generating *.prelink.o, so the build flow will look similar with/without LTO. The following figures show how the LTO build currently works, and how this commit is changing it. Current build flow ================== [1] single-object module $(LD) $(CC) +objtool $(LD) foo.c --------------------> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko (LLVM IR) (ELF) | (ELF) | foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) [2] multi-object module $(LD) $(CC) $(AR) +objtool $(LD) foo1.c -----> foo1.o -----> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko | (archive) (ELF) | (ELF) foo2.c -----> foo2.o --/ | (LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) One confusion is that foo.o in multi-object module is an archive despite of its suffix. New build flow ============== [1] single-object module Since there is only one object, there is no need to keep the LLVM IR. Use $(CC)+$(LD) to generate an ELF object in one build rule. When LTO is disabled, $(LD) is unneeded because $(CC) produces an ELF object. $(CC)+$(LD)+objtool $(LD) foo.c ----------------------------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko (ELF) | (ELF) | foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) [2] multi-object module Previously, $(AR) was used to combine LLVM IR files into an archive, but there was no technical reason to do so. Use $(LD) to merge them into a single ELF object. $(LD) $(CC) +objtool $(LD) foo1.c ---------> foo1.o ---------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko | (ELF) | (ELF) foo2.c ---------> foo2.o ----/ | (LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier <nicolas@fjasle.eu> Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> # LLVM-14 (x86-64) Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>

This commit moves BTF ID lookup into the newly added registration helper, in a way that the bbr, cubic, and dctcp implementation set up their sets in the bpf_tcp_ca kfunc_btf_set list, while the ones not dependent on modules are looked up from the wrapper function. This lifts the restriction for them to be compiled as built in objects, and can be loaded as modules if required. Also modify Makefile.modfinal to call resolve_btfids for each module. Note that since kernel kfunc_ids never overlap with module kfunc_ids, we only match the owner for module btf id sets.

2021-09-03kbuild: Fix TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS with LTO_CLANGSami Tolvanen
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.

2021-05-24kbuild: remove libelf checks from top MakefileMasahiro Yamada
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.

2021-04-08add support for Clang CFISami Tolvanen
This change adds support for Clang’s forward-edge Control Flow Integrity (CFI) checking. With CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, the compiler injects a runtime check before each indirect function call to ensure the target is a valid function with the correct static type. This restricts possible call targets and makes it more difficult for an attacker to exploit bugs that allow the modification of stored function pointers. For more details, see: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ControlFlowIntegrity.html Clang requires CONFIG_LTO_CLANG to be enabled with CFI to gain visibility to possible call targets. Kernel modules are supported with Clang’s cross-DSO CFI mode, which allows checking between independently compiled components. With CFI enabled, the compiler injects a __cfi_check() function into the kernel and each module for validating local call targets. For cross-module calls that cannot be validated locally, the compiler calls the global __cfi_slowpath_diag() function, which determines the target module and calls the correct __cfi_check() function. This patch includes a slowpath implementation that uses __module_address() to resolve call targets, and with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG_SHADOW enabled, a shadow map that speeds up module look-ups by ~3x. Clang implements indirect call checking using jump tables and offers two methods of generating them. With canonical jump tables, the compiler renames each address-taken function to <function>.cfi and points the original symbol to a jump table entry, which passes __cfi_check() validation. This isn’t compatible with stand-alone assembly code, which the compiler doesn’t instrument, and would result in indirect calls to assembly code to fail. Therefore, we default to using non-canonical jump tables instead, where the compiler generates a local jump table entry <function>.cfi_jt for each address-taken function, and replaces all references to the function with the address of the jump table entry. Note that because non-canonical jump table addresses are local to each component, they break cross-module function address equality. Specifically, the address of a global function will be different in each module, as it's replaced with the address of a local jump table entry. If this address is passed to a different module, it won’t match the address of the same function taken there. This may break code that relies on comparing addresses passed from other components. CFI checking can be disabled in a function with the __nocfi attribute. Additionally, CFI can be disabled for an entire compilation unit by filtering out CC_FLAGS_CFI. By default, CFI failures result in a kernel panic to stop a potential exploit. CONFIG_CFI_PERMISSIVE enables a permissive mode, where the kernel prints out a rate-limited warning instead, and allows execution to continue. This option is helpful for locating type mismatches, but should only be enabled during development.

2021-02-23kbuild: lto: postpone objtoolSami Tolvanen
With LTO, LLVM bitcode won't be compiled into native code until modpost_link, or modfinal for modules. This change postpones calls to objtool until after these steps, and moves objtool_args to Makefile.lib, so the arguments can be reused in Makefile.modfinal. As we didn't have objects to process earlier, we use --duplicate when processing vmlinux.o. This change also disables unreachable instruction warnings with LTO to avoid warnings about the int3 padding between functions.

2021-01-14kbuild: add support for Clang LTOSami Tolvanen
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.

2020-11-25kbuild: Skip module BTF generation for out-of-tree external modulesAndrii Nakryiko
In some modes of operation, Kbuild allows to build modules without having vmlinux image around. In such case, generation of module BTF is impossible. This patch changes the behavior to emit a warning about impossibility of generating kernel module BTF, instead of breaking the build. This is especially important for out-of-tree external module builds. In vmlinux-less mode: $ make clean $ make modules_prepare $ touch drivers/acpi/button.c $ make M=drivers/acpi ...

2020-11-10kbuild: Build kernel module BTFs if BTF is enabled and pahole supports itAndrii Nakryiko
Detect if pahole supports split BTF generation, and generate BTF for each selected kernel module, if it does. This is exposed to Makefiles and C code as CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES flag. Kernel module BTF has to be re-generated if either vmlinux's BTF changes or module's .ko changes. To achieve that, I needed a helper similar to if_changed, but that would allow to filter out vmlinux from the list of updated dependencies for .ko building. I've put it next to the only place that uses and needs it, but it might be a better idea to just add it along the other if_changed variants into scripts/Kbuild.include. Each kernel module's BTF deduplication is pretty fast, as it does only incremental BTF deduplication on top of already deduplicated vmlinux BTF. To show the added build time, I've first ran make only just built kernel (to establish the baseline) and then forced only BTF re-generation, without regenerating .ko files. The build was performed with -j60 parallelization on 56-core machine. The final time also includes bzImage building, so it's not a pure BTF overhead. $ time make -j60 ... make -j60 27.65s user 10.96s system 782% cpu 4.933 total $ touch ~/linux-build/default/vmlinux && time make -j60 ... make -j60 123.69s user 27.85s system 1566% cpu 9.675 total So 4.6 seconds real time, with noticeable part spent in compressed vmlinux and bzImage building. To show size savings, I've built my kernel configuration with about 700 kernel modules with full BTF per each kernel module (without deduplicating against vmlinux) and with split BTF against deduplicated vmlinux (approach in this patch). Below are top 10 modules with biggest BTF sizes. And total size of BTF data across all kernel modules. It shows that split BTF "compresses" 115MB down to 5MB total. And the biggest kernel modules get a downsize from 500-570KB down to 200-300KB.

There was a request to preprocess the module linker script like we do for the vmlinux one. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/8/21/512) The difference between vmlinux.lds and module.lds is that the latter is needed for external module builds, thus must be cleaned up by 'make mrproper' instead of 'make clean'. Also, it must be created by 'make modules_prepare'. You cannot put it in arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/, which is cleaned up by 'make clean'. I moved arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/module.lds to arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/asm/module.lds.h, which is included from scripts/module.lds.S. scripts/module.lds is fine because 'make clean' keeps all the build artifacts under scripts/. You can add arch-specific sections in <asm/module.lds.h>.

2019-08-22kbuild: move modkern_{c,a}flags to Makefile.lib from Makefile.buildMasahiro Yamada
Makefile.lib is included by Makefile.modfinal as well as Makefile.build. Move modkern_cflags to Makefile.lib in order to simplify cmd_cc_o_c in Makefile.modfinal. Move modkern_cflags as well for consistency. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2019-08-22kbuild: split final module linking out into Makefile.modfinalMasahiro Yamada
I think splitting the modpost and linking modules into separate Makefiles will be useful especially when more complex build steps come in. The main motivation of this commit is to integrate the proposed klp-convert feature cleanly. I moved the logging 'Building modules, stage 2.' to Makefile.modpost to avoid the code duplication although I do not know whether or not this message is needed in the first place.
