b1a1a1a09b kbuild: lto: postpone objtool
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.

38e8918490 kbuild: lto: fix module versioning

compilation unit that exports symbols. With LTO, we cannot use this
method as all C code is compiled into LLVM bitcode instead. This
change collects symbol versions into .symversions files and merges

dc5723b02e kbuild: add support for Clang LTO
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.

7d32358be8 kbuild: avoid split lines in .mod files
"xargs echo" is not a safe way to remove line breaks because the input
may exceed the command line limit and xargs may break it up into
multiple invocations of echo. This should never happen because
scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh expects all undefined symbols are placed in
the second line of .mod files.

One possible way is to replace "xargs echo" with
"sed ':x;N;$!bx;s/\n/ /g'" or something, but I rewrote the code by
using awk because it is more readable.

This issue was reported by Sami Tolvanen; in his Clang LTO patch set,
$(multi-used-m) is no longer an ELF object, but a thin archive that
contains LLVM bitcode files. llvm-nm prints out symbols for each
archive member separately, which results a lot of dupications, in some
places, beyond the system-defined limit.

This problem must be fixed irrespective of LTO, and we must ensure
zero possibility of having this issue.

85569d19d0 kbuild: sort hostprogs before passing it to ifneq
The conditional:

  ifneq ($(hostprogs),)

... is evaluated to true if $(hostprogs) does not contain any word but
whitespace characters.

  ifneq ($(strip $(hostprogs)),)

... is a safe way to avoid interpreting whitespace as a non-empty value,
but I'd rather want to use the side-effect of $(sort ...) to do the
equivalent.

$(sort ...) is used in scripts/Makefile.host in order to drop duplication
in $(hostprogs). It is also useful to strip excessive spaces.

Move $(sort ...) before evaluating the ifneq.

42640b134b kbuild: move host .so build rules to scripts/gcc-plugins/Makefile
The host shared library rules are currently implemented in
scripts/Makefile.host, but actually GCC-plugin is the only user of
them. (The VDSO .so files are built for the target by different
build rules) Hence, they do not need to be treewide available.

Move all the relevant build rules to scripts/gcc-plugins/Makefile.

I also optimized the build steps so *.so is directly built from .c
because every upstream plugin is compiled from a single source file.

I am still keeping the multi-file plugin support, which Kees Cook
mentioned might be needed by out-of-tree plugins.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/11/1107)

If the plugin, foo.so, is compiled from two files foo.c and foo2.c,
then you can do like follows:

  foo-objs := foo.o foo2.o

Single-file plugins do not need the *-objs notation.

7f3a59db27 kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programs
Kbuild supports the infrastructure to build host programs, but there
was no support to build userspace programs for the target architecture
(i.e. the same architecture as the kernel).

Sam Ravnborg worked on this in 2014 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/13/154),
but it was not merged. One problem at that time was, there was no good way
to know whether $(CC) can link standalone programs. In fact, pre-built
kernel.org toolchains [1] are often used for building the kernel, but they
do not provide libc.

Now, we can handle this cleanly because the compiler capability is
evaluated at the Kconfig time. If $(CC) cannot link standalone programs,
the relevant options are hidden by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK'.

The implementation just mimics scripts/Makefile.host

The userspace programs are compiled with the same flags as the host
programs. In addition, it uses -m32 or -m64 if it is found in
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS).

This new syntax has two usecases.

- Sample programs

  Several userspace programs under samples/ include UAPI headers
  installed in usr/include. Most of them were previously built for
  the host architecture just to use the 'hostprogs' syntax.

  However, 'make headers' always works for the target architecture.
  This caused the arch mismatch in cross-compiling. To fix this
  distortion, sample code should be built for the target architecture.

- Bpfilter

  net/bpfilter/Makefile compiles bpfilter_umh as the user mode helper,
  and embeds it into the kernel. Currently, it overrides HOSTCC with
  CC to use the 'hostprogs' syntax. This hack should go away.

7273ad2b08 kbuild: link lib-y objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y
Kbuild supports not only obj-y but also lib-y to list objects linked to
vmlinux.

The difference between them is that all the objects from obj-y are
forcibly linked to vmlinux, whereas the objects from lib-y are linked
as needed; if there is no user of a lib-y object, it is not linked.

lib-y is intended to list utility functions that may be called from all
over the place (and may be unused at all), but it is a problem for
EXPORT_SYMBOL(). Even if there is no call-site in the vmlinux, we need
to keep exported symbols for the use from loadable modules.

Commit 7f2084fa55 ("[kbuild] handle exports in lib-y objects reliably")
worked around it by linking a dummy object, lib-ksyms.o, which contains
references to all the symbols exported from lib.a in that directory.
It uses the linker script command, EXTERN. Unfortunately, the meaning of
EXTERN of ld.lld is different from that of ld.bfd. Therefore, this does
not work with LD=ld.lld (CBL issue #515).

Anyway, the build rule of lib-ksyms.o is somewhat tricky. So, I want to
get rid of it.

At first, I was thinking of accumulating lib-y objects into obj-y
(or even replacing lib-y with obj-y entirely), but the lib-y syntax
is used beyond the ordinary use in lib/ and arch/*/lib/.

Examples:

 - drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/Makefile builds lib.a, which is linked
   into vmlinux in the own way (arm64), or linked to the decompressor
   (arm, x86).

 - arch/alpha/lib/Makefile builds lib.a which is linked not only to
   vmlinux, but also to bootloaders in arch/alpha/boot/Makefile.

 - arch/xtensa/boot/lib/Makefile builds lib.a for use from
   arch/xtensa/boot/boot-redboot/Makefile.

One more thing, adding everything to obj-y would increase the vmlinux
size of allnoconfig (or tinyconfig).

For less impact, I tweaked the destination of lib.a at the top Makefile;
when CONFIG_MODULES=y, lib.a goes to KBUILD_VMLINUX_OBJS, which is
forcibly linked to vmlinux, otherwise lib.a goes to KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS
as before.

The size impact for normal usecases is quite small since at lease one
symbol in every lib-y object is eventually called by someone. In case
you are intrested, here are the figures.

x86_64_defconfig:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
19566602 5422072 1589328 26578002 1958c52 vmlinux.before
19566932 5422104 1589328 26578364 1958dbc vmlinux.after

The case with the biggest impact is allnoconfig + CONFIG_MODULES=y.

ARCH=x86 allnoconfig + CONFIG_MODULES=y:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
1175162	 254740	1220608	2650510	 28718e	vmlinux.before
1177974	 254836	1220608	2653418	 287cea	vmlinux.after

Hopefully this is still not a big deal. The per-file trimming with the
static library is not so effective after all.

If fine-grained optimization is desired, some architectures support
CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, which trims dead code per-symbol
basis. When LTO is supported in mainline, even better optimization will
be possible.

5f2fb52fac kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-y
In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.

It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.

This commit renames like follows:

  always       ->  always-y
  hostprogs-y  ->  hostprogs

So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:

  always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
  always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS)    += ...
      ...
  hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)

I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.

The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

56d5893615 kbuild: do not create orphan built-in.a or obj-y objects
Both 'obj-y += foo/' and 'obj-m += foo/' request Kbuild to visit the
sub-directory foo/, but the difference is that only the former combines
foo/built-in.a into the built-in.a of the current directory because
everything in sub-directories visited by obj-m is supposed to be modular.

So, it makes sense to create built-in.a only if that sub-directory is
reachable by the chain of obj-y. Otherwise, built-in.a will not be
linked into vmlinux anyway. For the same reason, it is pointless to
compile obj-y objects in the directory visited by obj-m.

13dc8c029c kbuild: remove ar-option and KBUILD_ARFLAGS
Commit 40df759e2b ("kbuild: Fix build with binutils <= 2.19")
introduced ar-option and KBUILD_ARFLAGS to deal with old binutils.

According to Documentation/process/changes.rst, the current minimal
supported version of binutils is 2.21 so you can assume the 'D' option
is always supported. Not only GNU ar but also llvm-ar supports it.

With the 'D' option hard-coded, there is no more user of ar-option
or KBUILD_ARFLAGS.

e27128db62 kbuild: rename KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS to KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN
KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS started as a switch to add extra warning
options for GCC, but now it is a historical misnomer since we use it
also for Clang, DTC, and even kernel-doc.

Rename it to more sensible, shorter KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN.

For the backward compatibility, KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS is still
supported (but not advertised in the documentation).

I also fixed up 'make help', and updated the documentation.

Add CONFIG_ASM_MODVERSIONS. This allows to remove one if-conditional

394053f4a4 kbuild: make single targets work more correctly
Currently, the single target build directly descends into the directory
of the target. For example,

  $ make foo/bar/baz.o

... directly descends into foo/bar/.

On the other hand, the normal build usually descends one directory at
a time, i.e. descends into foo/, and then foo/bar/.

This difference causes some problems.

[1] miss subdir-asflags-y, subdir-ccflags-y in upper Makefiles

    The options in subdir-{as,cc}flags-y take effect in the current
    and its sub-directories. In other words, they are inherited
    downward. In the example above, the single target will miss
    subdir-{as,cc}flags-y if they are defined in foo/Makefile.

[2] could be built in a different directory

    As Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst section 4.3 says, Kbuild can
    handle files that are spread over several sub-directories.

    The build rule of foo/bar/baz.o may not necessarily be specified in
    foo/bar/Makefile. It might be specifies in foo/Makefile as follows:

    [foo/Makefile]
    obj-y := bar/baz.o

    This often happens when a module is so big that its source files
    are divided into sub-directories.

    In this case, there is no Makefile in the foo/bar/ directory, yet
    the single target descends into foo/bar/, then fails due to the
    missing Makefile. You can still do 'make foo/bar/' for partial
    building, but cannot do 'make foo/bar/baz.s'. I believe the single
    target '%.s' is a useful feature for inspecting the compiler output.

    Some modules work around this issue by putting an empty Makefile
    in every sub-directory.

This commit fixes those problems by making the single target build
descend in the same way as the normal build does.

Another change is the single target build will observe the CONFIG
options. Previously, it allowed users to build the foo.o even when
the corresponding CONFIG_FOO is disabled:

   obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o

In the new behavior, the single target build will just fail and show
"No rule to make target ..." (or "Nothing to be done for ..." if the
stale object already exists, but cannot be updated).

The disadvantage of this commit is the build speed. Now that the
single target build visits every directory and parses lots of
Makefiles, it is slower than before. (But, I hope it will not be
too slow.)

c07d8d47bc kbuild: show hint if subdir-y/m is used to visit module Makefile
Since commit ff9b45c55b ("kbuild: modpost: read modules.order instead
of $(MODVERDIR)/*.mod"), a module is no longer built in the following
pattern:

  [Makefile]
  subdir-y := some-module

  [some-module/Makefile]
  obj-m := some-module.o

You cannot write Makefile this way in upstream because modules.order is
not correctly generated. subdir-y is used to descend to a sub-directory
that builds tools, device trees, etc.

For external modules, the modules order does not matter. So, the
Makefile above was known to work.

I believe the Makefile should be re-written as follows:

  [Makefile]
  obj-m := some-module/

  [some-module/Makefile]
  obj-m := some-module.o

However, people will have no idea if their Makefile suddenly stops
working. In fact, I received questions from multiple people.

Show a warning for a while if obj-m is specified in a Makefile visited
by subdir-y or subdir-m.

I touched the %/ rule to avoid false-positive warnings for the single
target.

Split out *.mod as a dedicated build rule, which allows to unify

b7dca6dd1e kbuild: create *.mod with full directory path and remove MODVERDIR
While descending directories, Kbuild produces objects for modules,
but do not link final *.ko files; it is done in the modpost.

To keep track of modules, Kbuild creates a *.mod file in $(MODVERDIR)
for every module it is building. Some post-processing steps read the
necessary information from *.mod files. This avoids descending into
directories again. This mechanism was introduced in 2003 or so.

Later, commit 551559e13a ("kbuild: implement modules.order") added
modules.order. So, we can simply read it out to know all the modules
with directory paths. This is easier than parsing the first line of
*.mod files.

$(MODVERDIR) has a flat directory structure, that is, *.mod files
are named only with base names. This is based on the assumption that
the module name is unique across the tree. This assumption is really
fragile.

Stephen Rothwell reported a race condition caused by a module name
conflict:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991

In parallel building, two different threads could write to the same
$(MODVERDIR)/*.mod simultaneously.

Non-unique module names are the source of all kind of troubles, hence
commit 3a48a91901 ("kbuild: check uniqueness of module names")
introduced a new checker script.

However, it is still fragile in the build system point of view because
this race happens before scripts/modules-check.sh is invoked. If it
happens again, the modpost will emit unclear error messages.

To fix this issue completely, create *.mod with full directory path
so that two threads never attempt to write to the same file.

$(MODVERDIR) is no longer needed.

Since modules with directory paths are listed in modules.order, Kbuild
is still able to find *.mod files without additional descending.

I also killed cmd_secanalysis; scripts/mod/sumversion.c computes MD4 hash
for modules with MODULE_VERSION(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y,
it occurs not only in the modpost stage, but also during directory
descending, where sumversion.c may parse stale *.mod files. It would emit
'No such file or directory' warning when an object consisting a module is
renamed, or when a single-obj module is turned into a multi-obj module or
vice versa.

Currently, only the top-level modules.order drops duplicated entries.

The modules.order files in sub-directories potentially contain

1bd9a46801 kbuild: get rid of kernel/ prefix from in-tree modules.{order,builtin}
Removing the 'kernel/' prefix will make our life easier because we can
simply do 'cat modules.order' to get all built modules with full paths.

Currently, we parse the first line of '*.mod' files in $(MODVERDIR).
Since we have duplicated functionality here, I plan to remove MODVERDIR
entirely.

In fact, modules.order is generated also for external modules in a
broken format. It adds the 'kernel/' prefix to the absolute path of
the module, like this:

  kernel//path/to/your/external/module/foo.ko

This is fine for now since modules.order is not used for external
modules. However, I want to sanitize the format everywhere towards
the goal of removing MODVERDIR.

We cannot change the format of installed module.{order,builtin}.
So, 'make modules_install' will add the 'kernel/' prefix while copying
them to $(MODLIB)/.

7e13191879 kbuild: do not create empty modules.order in the prepare stage
Currently, $(objtree)/modules.order is touched in two places.

In the 'prepare0' rule, scripts/Makefile.build creates an empty
modules.order while processing 'obj=.'

In the 'modules' rule, the top-level Makefile overwrites it with
the correct list of modules.

While this might be a good side-effect that modules.order is made
empty every time (probably this is not intended functionality),
I personally do not like this behavior.

Create modules.order only when it is sensible to do so.

This avoids creating the following pointless files:

  scripts/basic/modules.order
  scripts/dtc/modules.order
  scripts/gcc-plugins/modules.order
  scripts/genksyms/modules.order
  scripts/mod/modules.order
  scripts/modules.order
  scripts/selinux/genheaders/modules.order
  scripts/selinux/mdp/modules.order
  scripts/selinux/modules.order

Going forward, $(objtree)/modules.order lists the modules that
was built in the last successful build.

c93a0368aa kbuild: do not create wrappers for header-test-y
header-test-y does not work with headers in sub-directories.

For example, you may want to write a Makefile, like this:

include/linux/Kbuild:

  header-test-y += mtd/nand.h

This entry will create a wrapper include/linux/mtd/nand.hdrtest.c
with the following content:

  #include "mtd/nand.h"

To make this work, we need to add $(srctree)/include/linux to the
header search path. It would be tedious to add ccflags-y.

Instead, we could change the *.hdrtest.c rule to wrap:

  #include "nand.h"

This works for in-tree build since #include "..." searches in the
relative path from the header with this directive. For O=... build,
we need to add $(srctree)/include/linux/mtd to the header search path,
which will be even more tedious.

After all, I thought it would be handier to compile headers directly
without creating wrappers.

I added a new build rule to compile %.h into %.h.s

The target is %.h.s instead of %.h.o because it is slightly faster.
Also, as for GCC, an empty assembly is smaller than an empty object.

I wrote the build rule:

  $(CC) $(c_flags) -S -o $@ -x c /dev/null -include $<

instead of:

  $(CC) $(c_flags) -S -o $@ -x c $<

Both work fine with GCC, but the latter is bad for Clang.

This comes down to the difference in the -Wunused-function policy.
GCC does not warn about unused 'static inline' functions at all.
Clang does not warn about the ones in included headers, but does
about the ones in the source. So, we should handle headers as
headers, not as source files.

In fact, this has been hidden since commit abb2ea7dfd ("compiler,
clang: suppress warning for unused static inline functions"), but we
should not rely on that.
