Masahiro Yamada 8212f8986d kbuild: use more subdir- for visiting subdirectories while cleaning
Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst suggests to use "archclean" for
cleaning arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/, but it is not a hard requirement.

Since commit d92cc4d516 ("kbuild: require all architectures to have
arch/$(SRCARCH)/Kbuild"), we can use the "subdir- += boot" trick for
all architectures. This can take advantage of the parallel option (-j)
for "make clean".

I also cleaned up the comments in arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. The "archdep"
target no longer exists.

This plugin has no impact on the resulting binary, is disabled

Additionally, given the clarified purpose of GCC plugins in the kernel,
remove cyc_complexity.

Kees Cook 8bd51a2ba3 gcc-plugins: Explicitly document purpose and deprecation schedule
GCC plugins should only exist when some compiler feature needs to be
proven but does not exist in either GCC nor Clang. For example, if a
desired feature is already in Clang, it should be added to GCC upstream.
Document this explicitly.

Additionally, mark the plugins with matching upstream GCC features as
removable past their respective GCC versions.

Thorsten Leemhuis a9d85efb25 docs: use the lore redirector everywhere
Change all links from using the lkml redirector to the lore redirector,
as the kernel.org admin recently indicated: we shouldn't be using
lkml.kernel.org anymore because the domain can create confusion, as it
indicates it is only valid for messages sent to the LKML; the convention
has been to use https://lore.kernel.org/r/msgid for this reason.

In this process also change three links from using http to https.

Nick Desaulniers f12b034afe scripts/Makefile.clang: default to LLVM_IAS=1
LLVM_IAS=1 controls enabling clang's integrated assembler via
-integrated-as. This was an explicit opt in until we could enable
assembler support in Clang for more architecures. Now we have support
and CI coverage of LLVM_IAS=1 for all architecures except a few more
bugs affecting s390 and powerpc.

This commit flips the default from opt in via LLVM_IAS=1 to opt out via
LLVM_IAS=0.  CI systems or developers that were previously doing builds
with CC=clang or LLVM=1 without explicitly setting LLVM_IAS must now
explicitly opt out via LLVM_IAS=0, otherwise they will be implicitly
opted-in.

This finally shortens the command line invocation when cross compiling
with LLVM to simply:

$ make ARCH=arm64 LLVM=1

Masahiro Yamada b75b0a819a kconfig: change defconfig_list option to environment variable
"defconfig_list" is a weird option that defines a static symbol that
declares the list of base config files in case the .config does not
exist yet.

This is quite different from other normal symbols; we just abused the
"string" type and the "default" properties to list out the input files.
They must be fixed values since these are searched for and loaded in
the parse stage.

It is an ugly hack, and should not exist in the first place. Providing
this feature as an environment variable is a saner approach.

Nathan Chancellor ed4e9e615b Documentation/llvm: Add a section about supported architectures
The most common question around building the Linux kernel with clang is
"does it work?" and the answer has always been "it depends on your
architecture, configuration, and LLVM version" with no hard answers for
users wanting to experiment. LLVM support has significantly improved
over the past couple of years, resulting in more architectures and
configurations supported, and continuous integration has made it easier
to see what works and what does not.

Add a section that goes over what architectures are supported in the
current kernel version, how they should be built (with just clang or the
LLVM utilities as well), and the level of support they receive. This
will make it easier for people to try out building their kernel with
LLVM and reporting issues that come about from it.

Masahiro Yamada 9b6164342e doc: gcc-plugins: update gcc-plugins.rst
This document was written a long time ago. Update it.

[1] Drop the version information

The range of the supported GCC versions are always changing. The
current minimal GCC version is 4.9, and commit 1e860048c5
("gcc-plugins: simplify GCC plugin-dev capability test") removed the
old code accordingly.

We do not need to mention specific version ranges like "all gcc versions
from 4.5 to 6.0" since we forget to update the documentation when we
raise the minimal compiler version.

[2] Drop the C compiler statements

Since commit 77342a02ff ("gcc-plugins: drop support for GCC <= 4.7")
the GCC plugin infrastructure only supports g++.

[3] Drop supported architectures

As of v5.11-rc4, the infrastructure supports more architectures;
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, riscv, s390, um, and x86. (just grep
"select HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS") Again, we miss to update this document when a
new architecture is supported. Let's just say "only some architectures".

[4] Update the apt-get example

We are now discussing to bump the minimal version to GCC 5. The GCC 4.9
support will be removed sooner or later. Change the package example to
gcc-10-plugin-dev while we are here.

[5] Update the build target

Since commit ce2fd53a10 ("kbuild: descend into scripts/gcc-plugins/
via scripts/Makefile"), "make gcc-plugins" is not supported.
"make scripts" builds all the enabled plugins, including some other
tools.

[6] Update the steps for adding a new plugin

At first, all CONFIG options for GCC plugins were located in arch/Kconfig.
After commit 45332b1bdf ("gcc-plugins: split out Kconfig entries to
scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig"), scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig became the
central place to collect plugin CONFIG options. In my understanding,
this requirement no longer exists because commit 9f671e5815 ("security:
Create "kernel hardening" config area") moved some of plugin CONFIG
options to another file. Find an appropriate place to add the new CONFIG.

The sub-directory support was never used by anyone, and removed by
commit c17d6179ad ("gcc-plugins: remove unused GCC_PLUGIN_SUBDIR").

Remove the useless $(src)/ prefix.

Masahiro Yamada d0e628cd81 kbuild: doc: clarify the difference between extra-y and always-y
The difference between extra-y and always-y is obscure.

Basically, Kbuild builds targets listed in extra-y and always-y in
visited Makefiles without relying on any dependency.

The difference is that extra-y is used to list the targets needed for
vmlinux whereas always-y is used to list the targets that must be always
built irrespective of final targets.

Kbuild skips extra-y when it is building only modules (i.e.
'make modules'). This is the long-standing behavior since extra-y was
introduced in 2003, and it is explained in that commit log [1].

For clarification, this is the extra-y vs always-y table:

                  extra-y    always-y
  'make'             y          y
  'make vmlinux'     y          y
  'make modules'     n          y

Kbuild skips extra-y also when building external modules since obviously
it never builds vmlinux.

Unfortunately, extra-y is wrongly used in many places of upstream code,
and even in external modules.

Using extra-y in external module Makefiles is wrong. What you should
use is probably always-y or 'targets'.

The current documentation for extra-y is misleading. I rewrote it, and
moved it to the section 3.7.

always-y is not documented anywhere. I added.

Masahiro Yamada 8c4d9b145b kbuild: doc: replace arch/$(ARCH)/ with arch/$(SRCARCH)/
Precisely speaking, the arch directory is specified by $(SRCARCH),
not $(ARCH).

In old days, $(ARCH) actually matched to the arch directory because
32-bit and 64-bit were supported as separate architectures.

Most architectures (except arm/arm64) were unified like follows:

    arch/i386, arch/x86_64    ->  arch/x86
    arch/sh, arch/sh64        ->  arch/sh
    arch/sparc, arch/sparc64  ->  arch/sparc

To not break the user interface, commit 6752ed90da ("Kbuild: allow
arch/xxx to use a different source path") introduced SRCARCH to point
to the arch directory, still allowing to pass in the former ARCH=i386
or ARCH=x86_64.

Update the documents for preciseness, and add the explanation of SRCARCH.

Provide some basic documentation how the build shall invoke scripts, such
that the execute bits do not matter, and acknowledge that execute bits are
useful nonetheless.

This serves as reference for further clean-up patches in the future.

Nick Desaulniers 3519c4d6e0 Documentation: add minimum clang/llvm version
Based on a vote at the LLVM BoF at Plumbers 2020, we decided to start
small, supporting just one formal upstream release of LLVM for now.

We can probably widen the support window of supported versions over
time.  Also, note that LLVM's release process is different than GCC's.
GCC tends to have 1 major release per year while releasing minor updates
to the past 3 major versions.  LLVM tends to support one major release
and one minor release every six months.

Nathan Chancellor 91a9d50219 Documentation/llvm: Improve formatting of commands, variables, and arguments
While reviewing a separate patch, I noticed that the formatting of the
commands, variables, and arguments was not in a monospaced font like the
rest of the Kbuild documentation (see kbuild/kconfig.rst for an
example). This is due to a lack of "::" before indented command blocks
and single backticks instead of double backticks for inline formatting.

Add those so that the document looks nicer in an HTML format, while not
ruining the look in plain text.

As a result of this, we can remove the escaped backslashes in the last
code block and move them to single backslashes.

Masahiro Yamada faabed295c kbuild: introduce hostprogs-always-y and userprogs-always-y
To build host programs, you need to add the program names to 'hostprogs'
to use the necessary build rule, but it is not enough to build them
because there is no dependency.

There are two types of host programs: built as the prerequisite of
another (e.g. gen_crc32table in lib/Makefile), or always built when
Kbuild visits the Makefile (e.g. genksyms in scripts/genksyms/Makefile).

The latter is typical in Makefiles under scripts/, which contains host
programs globally used during the kernel build. To build them, you need
to add them to both 'hostprogs' and 'always-y'.

This commit adds hostprogs-always-y as a shorthand.

The same applies to user programs. net/bpfilter/Makefile builds
bpfilter_umh on demand, hence always-y is unneeded. In contrast,
programs under samples/ are added to both 'userprogs' and 'always-y'
so they are always built when Kbuild visits the Makefiles.

userprogs-always-y works as a shorthand.

Alexander A. Klimov 16a122c743 kbuild: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
	  If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`:
            If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
            return 200 OK and serve the same content:
              Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

Masahiro Yamada 15d5761ad3 kbuild: introduce ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y
CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file>.o filters out flags when compiling a particular
object, but there is no convenient way to do that for every object in
a directory.

Add ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y to make it easily.

Use ccflags-remove-y to clean up some Makefiles.

The add/remove order works as follows:

 [1] KBUILD_CFLAGS specifies compiler flags used globally

 [2] ccflags-y adds compiler flags for all objects in the
     current Makefile

 [3] ccflags-remove-y removes compiler flags for all objects in the
     current Makefile (New feature)

 [4] CFLAGS_<file> adds compiler flags per file.

 [5] CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file> removes compiler flags per file.

Having [3] before [4] allows us to remove flags from most (but not all)
objects in the current Makefile.

For example, kernel/trace/Makefile removes $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)
from all objects in the directory, then adds it back to
trace_selftest_dynamic.o and CFLAGS_trace_kprobe_selftest.o

The same applies to lib/livepatch/Makefile.

Please note ccflags-remove-y has no effect to the sub-directories.
In contrast, the previous notation got rid of compiler flags also from
all the sub-directories.

The following are not affected because they have no sub-directories:

  arch/arm/boot/compressed/
  arch/powerpc/xmon/
  arch/sh/
  kernel/trace/

However, lib/ has several sub-directories.

To keep the behavior, I added ccflags-remove-y to all Makefiles
in subdirectories of lib/, except the following:

  lib/vdso/Makefile        - Kbuild does not descend into this Makefile
  lib/raid/test/Makefile   - This is not used for the kernel build

I think commit 2464a609de ("ftrace: do not trace library functions")
excluded too much. In the next commit, I will remove ccflags-remove-y
from the sub-directories of lib/.
