7cd343008b kconfig: add warn-unknown-symbols sanity check
Introduce KCONFIG_WARN_UNKNOWN_SYMBOLS environment variable,
which makes Kconfig warn about unknown config symbols.

This is especially useful for continuous kernel uprevs when
some symbols can be either removed or renamed between kernel
releases (which can go unnoticed otherwise).

By default KCONFIG_WARN_UNKNOWN_SYMBOLS generates warnings,
which are non-terminal. There is an additional environment
variable KCONFIG_WERROR that overrides this behaviour and
turns warnings into errors.

a3c6bfba44 Documentation/llvm: refresh docs
Recent fixes for an embargoed hardware security vulnerability failed to
link with ld.lld (LLVM's linker).  [0]  To be fair, our documentation
mentions ``CC=clang`` foremost with ``LLVM=1`` being buried "below the
fold."

We want to encourage the use of ``LLVM=1`` rather than just
``CC=clang``. Make that suggestion "above the fold" and "front and
center" in our docs.

While here, the following additional changes were made:
- remove the bit about CROSS_COMPILE setting --target=, that's no longer
  true.
- Add ARCH=loongarch to the list of maintained targets (though we're
  still working on getting defconfig building cleanly at the moment;
  we're pretty close).
- Bump ARCH=powerpc from CC=clang to LLVM=1 status.
- Promote ARCH=riscv from being Maintained to being Supported. Android
  is working towards supporting RISC-V, and we have excellent support
  from multiple companies in this regard.
- Note that the toolchain distribution on kernel.org has been built with
  profile data from kernel builds.
- Note how to use ccache with clang.

Menuconfig has a feature where you can "press the key in the (#) prefix

This feature is poorly documented,

56b0f453db kernel-doc: don't let V=1 change outcome
The kernel-doc script currently reports a number of issues
only in "verbose" mode, but that's initialized from V=1
(via KBUILD_VERBOSE), so if you use KDOC_WERROR=1 then
adding V=1 might actually break the build. This is rather
unexpected.

Change kernel-doc to not change its behaviour wrt. errors
(or warnings) when verbose mode is enabled, but rather add
separate warning flags (and -Wall) for it. Allow enabling
those flags via environment/make variables in the kernel's
build system for easier user use, but to not have to parse
them in the script itself.

0aee6bec0f Documentation/llvm: add Chimera Linux, Google and Meta datacenters
Chimera Linux is a Linux distribution from 2021 that builds its kernels
with Clang.

Google transitioned its data center fleet to run Clang built kernels in
2021, and Meta did so as well in 2022.  Meta talked about this at LPC
2022 at a talk titled Kernel Live Patching at Scale.

These were important milestones for building the kernel with Clang.
Making note of them helps improve confidence in the project.

40bf2fcd85 scripts/tags.sh: choose which directories to exclude from being indexed
It's common for drivers that share same physical components to also
duplicate source code (or at least portions of it). A good example is
both drivers/gpu/drm/amdgpu/* and drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/* have a header
file called atombios.h.

While their contents aren't the same, a lot of their structs have
the exact same names which makes navigating through the code base a bit
messy as cscope will show up 'references' across drivers which aren't
exactly correct.

Add IGNORE_DIRS variable, which specifies which directories
to be ignored from indexing.

- Remove potentially incomplete targets when Kbuid is interrupted by
    SIGINT etc. in case GNU Make may miss to do that when stderr is piped
    to another program.
 
  - Rewrite the single target build so it works more correctly.
 
  - Fix rpm-pkg builds with V=1.
 
  - List top-level subdirectories in ./Kbuild.
 
  - Ignore auto-generated __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_* symbols in kallsyms.

    potentially causes building the common code as build-in and modular
    back-and-forth.

8aebac8293 Rust introduction for v6.1-rc1
The initial support of Rust-for-Linux comes in roughly 4 areas:
 
 - Kernel internals (kallsyms expansion for Rust symbols, %pA format)
 
 - Kbuild infrastructure (Rust build rules and support scripts)
 
 - Rust crates and bindings for initial minimum viable build
 
 - Rust kernel documentation and samples
 
 Rust support has been in linux-next for a year and a half now, and the
 short log doesn't do justice to the number of people who have contributed
 both to the Linux kernel side but also to the upstream Rust side to
 support the kernel's needs. Thanks to these 173 people, and many more,

ce697ccee1 kbuild: remove head-y syntax
Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.

A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.

I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.

I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

3216484550 kbuild: use obj-y instead extra-y for objects placed at the head
The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
   them before other archives in the linker command line.

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
   obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.

This commit gets rid of the latter.

Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.

With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.

There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.

$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].

d07479b211 docs: add Rust documentation
Most of the documentation for Rust is written within the source code
itself, as it is idiomatic for Rust projects. This applies to both
the shared infrastructure at `rust/` as well as any other Rust module
(e.g. drivers) written across the kernel.

However, these documents contain general information that does not
fit particularly well in the source code, like the Quick Start guide.

It also contains a few other small changes elsewhere in the
documentation folder.

a0a12c3ed0 asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO
GCC has supported asm goto since 4.5, and Clang has since version 9.0.0.
The minimum supported versions of these tools for the build according to
Documentation/process/changes.rst are 5.1 and 11.0.0 respectively.

Remove the feature detection script, Kconfig option, and clean up some
fallback code that is no longer supported.

The removed script was also testing for a GCC specific bug that was
fixed in the 4.7 release.

Also remove workarounds for bpftrace using clang older than 9.0.0, since
other BPF backend fixes are required at this point.

291810be42 Documentation/llvm: Update Supported Arch table
While watching Michael's new talk on Clang-built-Linux, I noticed the
arch table in our docs that he refers to is outdated.

Add hexagon and User Mode.  Bump MIPS and RISCV to LLVM=1.  PowerPC is
almost LLVM=1 capable; ppc64le works, but ppc64 (big endian) and ppc32
still need more work.

randomization seed generation out of scripts/gcc-plugins/ into

e9c281928c kbuild: Make $(LLVM) more flexible
The LLVM make variable allows a developer to quickly switch between the
GNU and LLVM tools. However, it does not handle versioned binaries, such
as the ones shipped by Debian, as LLVM=1 just defines the tool variables
with the unversioned binaries.

There was some discussion during the review of the patch that introduces
LLVM=1 around versioned binaries, ultimately coming to the conclusion
that developers can just add the folder that contains the unversioned
binaries to their PATH, as Debian's versioned suffixed binaries are
really just symlinks to the unversioned binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin:

$ realpath /usr/bin/clang-14
/usr/lib/llvm-14/bin/clang

$ PATH=/usr/lib/llvm-14/bin:$PATH make ... LLVM=1

However, that can be cumbersome to developers who are constantly testing
series with different toolchains and versions. It is simple enough to
support these versioned binaries directly in the Kbuild system by
allowing the developer to specify the version suffix with LLVM=, which
is shorter than the above suggestion:

$ make ... LLVM=-14

It does not change the meaning of LLVM=1 (which will continue to use
unversioned binaries) and it does not add too much additional complexity
to the existing $(LLVM) code, while allowing developers to quickly test
their series with different versions of the whole LLVM suite of tools.

Some developers may build LLVM from source but not add the binaries to
their PATH, as they may not want to use that toolchain systemwide.
Support those developers by allowing them to supply the directory that
the LLVM tools are available in, as it is no more complex to support
than the version suffix change above.

$ make ... LLVM=/path/to/llvm/

Update and reorder the documentation to reflect these new additions.
At the same time, notate that LLVM=0 is not the same as just omitting it
altogether, which has confused people in the past.

f67695c996 kbuild: Add environment variables for userprogs flags
Allow additional arguments be passed to userprogs compilation.
Reproducible clang builds need to provide a sysroot and gcc path to
ensure the same toolchain is used across hosts. KCFLAGS is not currently
used for any user programs compilation, so add new USERCFLAGS and
USERLDFLAGS which serves similar purpose as HOSTCFLAGS/HOSTLDFLAGS.

Clang might detect GCC installation on hosts which have it installed
to a default location in /. With addition of these environment
variables, you can specify flags such as:

$ make USERCFLAGS=--sysroot=/path/to/sysroot

This can also be used to specify different sysroots such as musl or
bionic which may be installed on the host in paths that the compiler
may not search by default.

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.
