Nothing exciting at all for modules for v6.3. The biggest change is
 just the change of INSTALL_MOD_DIR from "extra" to "updates" which
 I found lingered for ages for no good reason while testing the CXL
 mock driver [0]. The CXL mock driver has no kconfig integration and requires
 building an external module... and re-building the *rest* of the production
 drivers. This mock driver when loaded but not the production ones will
 crash. All this crap can obviously be fixed by integrating kconfig
 semantics into such test module, however that's not desirable by
 the maintainer, and so sensible defaults must be used to ensure a
 default "make modules_install" will suffice for most distros which
 do not have a file like /etc/depmod.d/dist.conf with something like
 `search updates extra built-in`. Since most distros rely on kmod and
 since its inception the "updates" directory is always in the search
 path it makes more sense to use that than the "extra" which only
 *some* RH based systems rely on. All this stuff has been on linux-next
 for a while.
 
 For v6.4 I already have queued some initial work by Song Liu which gets
 us slowly going to a place where we *may* see a generic allocator for
 huge pages for module text to avoid direct map fragmentation *and*
 reduce iTLB pressure. That work is in its initial stages, no allocator
 work is done yet. This is all just prep work. Fortunately Thomas Gleixner
 has helped convince Song that modules *need* to be *requirement* if we
 are going to see any special allocator touch x86. So who knows... maybe
 around v6.5 we'll start seeing some *real* performance numbers of the
 effect of using huge pages for something other than eBPF toys.
 
 For v6.4 also, you may start seeing patches from Nick Alcock on different
 trees and modules-next which aims at extending kallsyms *eventually* to provide
 clearer address to symbol lookups. The claim is that this is a *great* *feature*
 tracing tools are dying to have so they can for instance disambiguate symbols as
 coming from modules or from other parts of the kernel. I'm still waiting to see
 proper too usage of such stuff, but *how* we lay this out is still being ironed
 out. Part of the initial work I've been pushing for is to help upkeep our
 modules build optimizations, so being mindful about the work by Masahiro Yamada
 on commit 8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
 Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf") which helps avoid traversing the build
 tree twice. After this commit we now rely on the MODULE_LICENSE() tag to
 determine in a *faster* way if something being built could be a module and
 we dump this into the modules.builtin so that modprobe can simply succeed
 if a module is known to already be built-in. The cleanup work on MODULE_LICENSE()
 simply stems to assist false positives from userspace for things as built-in
 when they *cannot ever* be modules as we don't even tristate the code as
 modular. This work also helps with the SPDX effort as some code is not clearly
 identified with a tag. In the *future*, once all *possible* modules are
 confirmed to have a respective SPDX tag, we *may* just be able to replace the
 MODULE_LICENSE() to instead be generated automatically through inference of
 the respective module SPDX tags.

Jan Luebbe 22e46f6480 kbuild: modinst: Fix build error when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY is a PKCS#11 URI
When CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY is PKCS#11 URI (pkcs11:*), signing of modules
fails:

         scripts/sign-file -s <raw sig> <hash algo> <x509> <module> [<dest>]

First, we need to avoid adding the $(srctree)/ prefix to the URL.

Second, since the kconfig string values no longer include quotes, we need to add
them again when passing a PKCS#11 URI to sign-file. This avoids
splitting by the shell if the URI contains semicolons.

Luis Chamberlain b74d7bb7ca kbuild: Modify default INSTALL_MOD_DIR from extra to updates
The default INSTALL_MOD_DIR of using the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra
directory for external modules assumes distributions will have something
like  /etc/depmod.d/dist.conf with:

search updates extra built-in

However, only some Red Hat releases have and use the "extra" stuff for
years now. Meanwhile, the depmod.c tool in kmod has *forever* used
the "updates" directory as part of the search path by default *if*
your distribution does not have any depmod.d configuration.

If you compile and install an external module today, even upstream
kernel mock drivers (tools/testing/cxl) the modules_install target
will pick up the new drivers but will not allow override of drivers
from updates to override built-in ones.

Since module-init-tools was deprecated over 11 years ago and now kmod
has since its inception used the "updates" directory as part of its
default search path to allow overrides, and since the "extra" stuff
was in practice only used by Red Hat stuff, use the more distro
agnostic override path "updates" to allow external modules to
also override proper production kernel modules.

This would allow mocking drivers tools to not have to muck with
depmod.d config files or assume that your distro will have extra
on a configuration file over built-in.

With today's default you end up actually *crashing* Linux when
trying to load cxl_test with the default "extra" [0] directory being
used. This fixes that and allows other mocking drivers to do
less work.

Masahiro Yamada f65a486821 kbuild: change module.order to list *.o instead of *.ko
scripts/Makefile.build replaces the suffix .o with .ko, then
scripts/Makefile.modpost calls the sed command to change .ko back

Instead of converting the suffixes back-and-forth, store the .o paths
in modules.order, and replace it with .ko in 'make modules_install'.

This avoids the unneeded sed command.

Masahiro Yamada 129ab0d2d9 kbuild: do not quote string values in include/config/auto.conf
The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.

Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.

Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):

    CONFIG_X="foo bar"

Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.

There are some patterns:

  [1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
  [2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
  [3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
  [4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))

These are not only ugly, but also fragile.

[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
   CONFIG_X=" foo bar "

[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
   CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"

[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.

Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.

This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

    ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
    ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME
    ARC_TUNE_MCPU
    BUILTIN_DTB_SOURCE

Masahiro Yamada 961ab4a3cd kbuild: merge scripts/Makefile.modsign to scripts/Makefile.modinst
scripts/Makefile.modsign is a subset of scripts/Makefile.modinst,
and duplicates the code. Let's merge them.

By the way, you do not need to run 'make modules_sign' explicitly
because modules are signed as a part of 'make modules_install' when
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=y. If CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n, mod_sign_cmd is
set to 'true', so 'make modules_sign' is not functional.

In my understanding, the reason of still keeping this is to handle
corner cases like commit 64178cb62c ("builddeb: fix stripped module
signatures if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO and CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL are set").

VPATH is used in Kbuild to make pattern rules search for prerequisites

In contrast, I doubt the benefit of --include-dir=$(abs_srctree) because
it is always clear which Makefiles are real sources, and which are not.

So, my hope is to add $(srctree)/ prefix to all check-in Makefiles,

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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.

Bertrand Jacquin beb50df39e kbuild: handle module compression while running 'make modules_install'.
Since module-init-tools (gzip) and kmod (gzip and xz) support compressed
modules, it could be useful to include a support for compressing modules
right after having them installed. Doing this in kbuild instead of per
distro can permit to make this kind of usage more generic.

This patch add a Kconfig entry to "Enable loadable module support" menu
and let you choose to compress using gzip (default) or xz.

Both gzip and xz does not used any extra -[1-9] option since Andi Kleen
and Rusty Russell prove no gain is made using them. gzip is called with -n
argument to avoid storing original filename inside compressed file, that
way we can save some more bytes.

On a v3.16 kernel, 'make allmodconfig' generated 4680 modules for a
total of 378MB (no strip, no sign, no compress), the following table
shows observed disk space gain based on the allmodconfig .config :

       |           time                |
       +-------------+-----------------+
       | manual .ko  |       make      | size | percent
       | compression | modules_install |      | gain
       +-------------+-----------------+------+--------
  -    |             |     18.61s      | 378M |
  GZIP |   3m16s     |     3m37s       | 102M | 73.41%
  XZ   |   5m22s     |     5m39s       |  77M | 79.83%

The gain for restricted environnement seems to be interesting while
uncompress can be time consuming but happens only while loading a module,
that is generally done only once.

This is fully compatible with signed modules while the signed module is
compressed. module-init-tools or kmod handles decompression
and provide to other layer the uncompressed but signed payload.

Jan Beulich ad7a953c52 kbuild: strip generated symbols from *.ko
This patch changes the way __crc_ symbols are being resolved from
using ld to do so to using the assembler, thus allowing these symbols
to be marked local (the linker creates then as global ones) and hence
allow stripping (for modules) or ignoring (for vmlinux) them. While at
this, also strip other generated symbols during module installation.

One potentially debatable point is the handling of the flags passeed
to gcc when translating the intermediate assembly file into an object:
passing $(c_flags) unchanged doesn't work as gcc passes --gdwarf2 to
gas whenever is sees any -g* option, even for -g0, and despite the
fact that the compiler would have already produced all necessary debug
info in the C->assembly translation phase. I took the approach of just
filtering out all -g* options, but an alternative to such negative
filtering might be to have a positive filter which might, in the ideal
case allow just all the -Wa,* options to pass through.

Sam Ravnborg 9b213118fa kbuild: fix installing external modules
Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> reported:
  Installing external modules is supposed to put them in some path
  under /lib/modules/<version>/extra/subdir/, but this change:
  http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/?PAGE=cset&REV=1.1982.9.23
  makes them go under /lib/modules/<version>/extrasubdir

 (for example, make M=fs/ext3 modules_install puts ext3.ko in
 /lib/modules/<version>/extrafs/ext3.ko)

This was the case only when specifying a trailing slash to M=..

Fixed by removing trailing slash if present so
we correctly match dir part of target.

Theodore Ts'o ac031f26e8 kbuild: add option for stripping modules while installing them
Add option for stripping modules while installing them.

This function adds support for stripping modules while they are being
installed.  CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL (which will probably become more
popular as developers use kdump) causes the size of the installed
modules to grow by a factor of 9 or so.

Some kernel package systems solve this problem by stripping the debug
information from /lib/modules after running "make modules_install",
but that may not work for people who are installing directly into
/lib/modules --- root partitions that were sized to handle 16 megs
worth of modules may not be quite so happy with 145 megs of modules,
so the "make modules_install" never succeeds.

This patch allows such users to request modules_install to strip the
modules as they are installed.

Paul Smith 4f1933620f kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
even if nothing has changed.  This patch ensures kbuild works with both
the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

Changes in this patch:
  - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
  - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
  - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early

infrastructure for it.
