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)

# Stage one of module building created the following:
|
|
# a) The individual .o files used for the module
|
|
# b) A <module>.o file which is the .o files above linked together
|
|
# c) A <module>.mod file, listing the name of the preliminary <module>.o file,
|
|
# plus all .o files
|
|
# d) modules.order, which lists all the modules
|
|
|
|
# Stage 2 is handled by this file and does the following
|
|
# 1) Find all modules listed in modules.order
|
|
# 2) modpost is then used to
|
|
# 3) create one <module>.mod.c file per module
|
|
# 4) create one Module.symvers file with CRC for all exported symbols
|
|
|
|
# Step 3 is used to place certain information in the module's ELF
|
|
# section, including information such as:
|
|
# Version magic (see include/linux/vermagic.h for full details)
|
|
# - Kernel release
|
|
# - SMP is CONFIG_SMP
|
|
# - PREEMPT is CONFIG_PREEMPT[_RT]
|
|
# - GCC Version
|
|
# Module info
|
|
# - Module version (MODULE_VERSION)
|
|
# - Module alias'es (MODULE_ALIAS)
|
|
# - Module license (MODULE_LICENSE)
|
|
# - See include/linux/module.h for more details
|

# Step 4 is solely used to allow module versioning in external modules,

|
# where the CRC of each module is retrieved from the Module.symvers file.
