| * trace: Use -mcount-record for dynamic ftraceAndi Kleen2018-05-281-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gcc 5 supports a new -mcount-record option to generate ftrace tables directly. This avoids the need to run record_mcount manually. Use this option when available. So far doesn't use -mcount-nop, which also exists now. This is needed to make ftrace work with LTO because the normal record-mcount script doesn't run over the link time output. It should also improve build times slightly in the general case.

* kbuild: mark $(targets) as .SECONDARY and remove .PRECIOUS markersMasahiro Yamada2018-04-071-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GNU Make automatically deletes intermediate files that are updated in a chain of pattern rules. Example 1) %.dtb.o <- %.dtb.S <- %.dtb <- %.dts Example 2) %.o <- %.c <- %.c_shipped A couple of makefiles mark such targets as .PRECIOUS to prevent Make from deleting them, but the correct way is to use .SECONDARY. .SECONDARY Prerequisites of this special target are treated as intermediate files but are never automatically deleted. .PRECIOUS When make is interrupted during execution, it may delete the target file it is updating if the file was modified since make started. If you mark the file as precious, make will never delete the file if interrupted. Both can avoid deletion of intermediate files, but the difference is the behavior when Make is interrupted; .SECONDARY deletes the target, but .PRECIOUS does not. The use of .PRECIOUS is relatively rare since we do not want to keep partially constructed (possibly corrupted) targets. Another difference is that .PRECIOUS works with pattern rules whereas .SECONDARY does not. .PRECIOUS: $(obj)/%.lex.c works, but .SECONDARY: $(obj)/%.lex.c has no effect. However, for the reason above, I do not want to use .PRECIOUS which could cause obscure build breakage. The targets specified as .SECONDARY must be explicit. $(targets) contains all targets that need to include .*.cmd files. So, the intermediates you want to keep are mostly in there. Therefore, mark $(targets) as .SECONDARY. It means primary targets are also marked as .SECONDARY, but I do not see any drawback for this. I replaced some .SECONDARY / .PRECIOUS markers with 'targets'. This will make Kbuild search for non-existing .*.cmd files, but this is not a noticeable performance issue.

* kbuild: rename *-asn1.[ch] to *.asn1.[ch]Masahiro Yamada2018-04-071-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our convention is to distinguish file types by suffixes with a period as a separator. *-asn1.[ch] is a different pattern from other generated sources such as *.lex.c, *.tab.[ch], *.dtb.S, etc. More confusing, files with '-asn1.[ch]' are generated files, but '_asn1.[ch]' are checked-in files: net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_h323_asn1.c include/linux/netfilter/nf_conntrack_h323_asn1.h include/linux/sunrpc/gss_asn1.h Rename generated files to *.asn1.[ch] for consistency.

* kbuild: add %.dtb.S and %.dtb to 'targets' automaticallyMasahiro Yamada2018-04-071-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Another common pattern that consists of chained commands is to compile a DTB as binary data into the kernel image or a module. It is used in several places in the source tree. Support it in the core Makefile. $(call if_changed,dt_S_dtb) is more suitable than $(call cmd,dt_S_dtb) in case cmd_dt_S_dtb is changed in the future.

* kbuild: add %.lex.c and %.tab.[ch] to 'targets' automaticallyMasahiro Yamada2018-04-071-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Files generated by if_changed* must be added to 'targets' to include *.cmd files. Otherwise, they would be regenerated every time. The build system automatically adds objects to 'targets' where appropriate, such as obj-y, extra-y, etc. but does nothing for intermediate files. So, each Makefile needs to add them by itself. There are some common cases where objects are generated by chained rules. Lexers and parsers are compiled like follows: %.lex.o <- %.lex.c <- %.l %.tab.o <- %.tab.c <- %.y They are common patterns, so it is reasonable to take care of them in the core Makefile instead of requiring each Makefile to do so. At this moment, you cannot delete 'target += zconf.lex.c' in the Kconfig Makefile because zconf.lex.c is included from zconf.tab.c instead of being compiled separately. It should be deleted after Kconfig is more refactored. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Acked-by: Frank Rowand <frowand.list@gmail.com>

* kbuild: remove partial section mismatch detection for built-in.aMasahiro Yamada2018-03-261-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When built-in.o was incrementally linked with 'ld -r', the section mismatch analysis for the individual built-in.o was possible when CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH was enabled. With the migration to the thin archive, built-in.a (former, built-in.o) is no longer an ELF file. So, the modpost does nothing useful. scripts/mod/modpost.c just checks the header to bail out, as follows: /* Is this a valid ELF file? */ if ((hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG0] != ELFMAG0) || (hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG1] != ELFMAG1) || (hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG2] != ELFMAG2) || (hdr->e_ident[EI_MAG3] != ELFMAG3)) { /* Not an ELF file - silently ignore it */ return 0; } We have the full analysis in the final link stage anyway, so we would not miss the section mismatching. I do not see a good reason to require extra linking only for the purpose of the per-directory analysis. Just get rid of this part. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
* kbuild: link $(real-obj-y) instead of $(obj-y) into built-in.aMasahiro Yamada2018-03-261-14/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In Kbuild, Makefiles can add the same object to obj-y multiple times. So, obj-y += foo.o obj-y += foo.o is fine. However, this is not true when the same object is added multiple times via composite objects. For example, obj-y += foo.o bar.o foo-objs := foo-bar-common.o foo-only.o bar-objs := foo-bar-common.o bar-only.o causes build error because two instances of foo-bar-common.o are linked into the vmlinux. Makefiles tend to invent ugly work-around, for example - lib/zstd/Makefile - drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/liquidio/Makefile The technique used in Kbuild to avoid the multiple definition error is to use $(filter $(obj-y), $^). Here, $^ lists the names of all the prerequisites with duplicated names removed. By replacing it with $(filter $(real-obj-y), $^) we can do likewise for composite objects. For built-in objects, we do not need to keep the composite object structure. We can simply expand them, and link $(real-obj-y) to built-in.a.

This patch does two things, first is a simple search/replace: git grep -l 'built-in\.o' | xargs sed -i 's/built-in\.o/built-in\.a/g' The second is to invert nesting of nested text manipulations to avoid filtering built-in.a out from libs-y2: -libs-y2 := $(filter-out %.a, $(patsubst %/, %/built-in.a, $(libs-y))) +libs-y2 := $(patsubst %/, %/built-in.a, $(filter-out %.a, $(libs-y))) Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Use BREs where EREs aren't necessary. * Pass -E instead of -r to use EREs. This will be standardized in the next POSIX revision[0]. GNU sed supports this since 4.2 (May 2009), and busybox since 1.22.0 (Jan 2014). * Use the [:space:] character class instead of ` \t` in bracket expressions. In bracket expressions, POSIX says that <backslash> loses its special meaning, so a conforming implementation cannot expand \t to <tab>[1]. * In BREs, use interval expressions (\{n,m\}) instead of non-standard features like \+ and \?. * Use a loop instead of -s flag. There are still plenty of other cases of non-standard sed invocations (use of ERE features in BREs, in-place editing), but this fixes some core ones.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Objtool segfaults when the gold linker is used with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y and CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y. With CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y, the .o file gets passed to the linker before being passed to objtool. The gold linker seems to strip unused ELF symbols by default, which confuses objtool and causes the seg fault when it's trying to generate ORC metadata. Objtool should really be running immediately after GCC anyway, without a linker call in between. Change the makefile ordering so that objtool is called before the linker.

We have had several fixups like commit 4b024242e8a4 ("kbuild: Fix linking error built-in.o no such file or directory"), then ended up with a complex condition as follows: ifneq ($(strip $(obj-y) $(obj-m) $(obj-) $(subdir-m) $(lib-target)),) builtin-target := $(obj)/built-in.o endif We still have more cases not covered by the above, so we need to add obj- := dummy.o in several places just for creating empty built-in.o. A key point is, the parent Makefile knows whether built-in.o is needed or not. If a subdirectory needs to create built-in.o, its parent can tell the fact when descending. If non-empty $(need-builtin) flag is passed from the parent, built-in.o should be created. $(obj-y) should be still checked to support the single target "%/". All of ugly tricks will go away.

We can optimize it more for incremental build. There are already *.cmd files in the output directory. The existing *.cmd files have been picked up by $(wildcard ...). Obviously, directories containing them exist too, so we can skip "mkdir -p". With this, Kbuild runs almost zero "mkdir -p" in incremental building.

Usually the result is as many "./" as objects here. For a lot of duplicated paths, the following command is invoked. _dummy := $(foreach d,$(obj-dirs), $(shell [ -d $(d) ] || mkdir -p $(d))) Then, the costly shell command is run over and over again. I see many points for optimization: [1] Use $(sort ...) to cut down duplicated paths before passing them to system call [2] Use single $(shell ...) instead of repeating it with $(foreach ...) This will reduce forking. [3] We can calculate obj-dirs more simply. Most of objects are already accumulated in $(targets). So, $(dir $(targets)) is fine and more comprehensive. I also removed ugly code in arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile. This is now really unnecessary.

That makes no sense, since the comments are not meaningful for the build anyway. And it actually breaks things, since linker scripts can't have C++ style "//" comments in them, so keeping comments after preprocessing now limits us in odd and surprising ways in our header files for no good reason. The -C option goes back to pre-git and pre-bitkeeper times, but seems to have been historically used (along with "-traditional") for some odd-ball architectures (ia64, MIPS and SH). It probably didn't matter back then either, but might possibly have been used to minimize the difference between the original file and the pre-processed result. The reason for this may be lost in time, but let's not perpetuate it only because we can't remember why we did this crazy thing. This was triggered by the recent addition of SPDX lines to the source tree, where people apparently were confused about why header files couldn't use the C++ comment format.

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.

The ORC unwinder is a lightweight, Linux kernel specific debuginfo implementation, which aims to be DWARF done right for unwinding. Objtool is used to generate the ORC unwinder tables during build, so the data format is flexible and kernel internal: there's no dependency on debuginfo created by an external toolchain. The ORC unwinder is almost two orders of magnitude faster than the (out of tree) DWARF unwinder - which is important for perf call graph profiling. It is also significantly simpler and is coded defensively: there has not been a single ORC related kernel crash so far, even with early versions. (knock on wood!) But the main advantage is that enabling the ORC unwinder allows CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS to be turned off - which speeds up the kernel measurably: With frame pointers disabled, GCC does not have to add frame pointer instrumentation code to every function in the kernel. The kernel's .text size decreases by about 3.2%, resulting in better cache utilization and fewer instructions executed, resulting in a broad kernel-wide speedup. Average speedup of system calls should be roughly in the 1-3% range - measurements by Mel Gorman [1] have shown a speedup of 5-10% for some function execution intense workloads. The main cost of the unwinder is that the unwinder data has to be stored in RAM: the memory cost is 2-4MB of RAM, depending on kernel config - which is a modest cost on modern x86 systems. Given how young the ORC unwinder code is it's not enabled by default - but given the performance advantages the plan is to eventually make it the default unwinder on x86. See Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for more details. - Remove lguest support: its intended role was that of a temporary proof of concept for virtualization, plus its removal will enable the reduction (removal) of the paravirt API as well, so Rusty agreed to its removal.

It plugs into the existing x86 unwinder framework. It relies on objtool to generate the needed .orc_unwind and .orc_unwind_ip sections. For more details on why ORC is used instead of DWARF, see Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt - but the short version is that it's a simplified, fundamentally more robust debugninfo data structure, which also allows up to two orders of magnitude faster lookups than the DWARF unwinder - which matters to profiling workloads like perf. Thanks to Andy Lutomirski for the performance improvement ideas: splitting the ORC unwind table into two parallel arrays and creating a fast lookup table to search a subset of the unwind table.

| * objtool: Fix gcov check for older versions of GCCJosh Poimboeuf2017-07-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Objtool tries to silence 'unreachable instruction' warnings when it detects gcov is enabled, because gcov produces a lot of unreachable instructions and they don't really matter. However, the 0-day bot is still reporting some unreachable instruction warnings with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y on GCC 4.6.4. As it turns out, objtool's gcov detection doesn't work with older versions of GCC because they don't create a bunch of symbols with the 'gcov.' prefix like newer versions of GCC do. Move the gcov check out of objtool and instead just create a new '--no-unreachable' flag which can be passed in by the kernel Makefile when CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL is defined. Also rename the 'nofp' variable to 'no_fp' for consistency with the new 'no_unreachable' variable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following: - introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS - adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols as references into the .rodata section - making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols by the section index (SHN_ABS) - making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When LTO is used, some ___ksymtab_string sections are seen by this sed script, creating lines containing a single ) such as: EXPORT(foo) ) ) EXPORT(bar) Let's make it so the + character is also required for any line to be printed.

| * kbuild: improve linker compatibility with lib-ksyms.o buildNicholas Piggin2016-11-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lib-ksyms.o is created by linking an empty input file with a linker script containing the interesting bits. Currently the empty input file is an archive containing nothing, however this causes the gold linker to segfault. I have opened a bug against gold https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20767 However this can be worked around by assembling an empty file to link with instead. The resulting lib-ksyms.o is slightly larger (seemingly due to empty .text, .data, .bss setions added), but final linked output should not be changed.

| * kbuild: thin archives for multi-y targetsNicholas Piggin2016-11-291-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | THIN_ARCHIVES builds archives for built-in.o targets, have it build multi-y targets as archives as well. This saves another ~15% of the size of intermediate artifacts in the build tree. After this patch, the linker is only used in final link, and special cases like vdsos.
