kbuild: fix if_change and friends to consider argument order Currently, arg-check is implemented as follows: arg-check = $(strip $(filter-out $(cmd_$(1)), $(cmd_$@)) \ $(filter-out $(cmd_$@), $(cmd_$(1))) ) This does not care about the order of arguments that appear in $(cmd_$(1)) and $(cmd_$@). So, if_changed and friends never rebuild the target if only the argument order is changed. This is a problem when the link order is changed. Apparently, obj-y += foo.o obj-y += bar.o and obj-y += bar.o obj-y += foo.o should be distinguished because the link order determines the probe order of drivers. So, built-in.o should be rebuilt when the order of objects is changed. This commit fixes arg-check to compare the old/current commands including the argument order. Of course, this change has a side effect; Kbuild will react to the change of compile option order. For example, "-DFOO -DBAR" and "-DBAR -DFOO" should give no difference to the build result, but false positive should be better than false negative. I am moving space_escape to the top of Kbuild.include just for a matter of preference. In practical terms, space_escape can be defined after arg-check because arg-check uses "=" flavor, not ":=". Having said that, collecting convenient variables in one place makes sense from the point of readability. Chaining "%%%SPACE%%%" to "_-_SPACE_-_" is also a matter of taste at this point. Actually, it can be arbitrary as long as it is an unlikely used string. The only problem I see in "%%%SPACE%%%" is that "%" is a special character in "$(patsubst ...)" context. This commit just uses "$(subst ...)" for arg-check, but I am fixing it now in case we might want to use it in $(patsubst ...) context in the future.

Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd files for future Make I tried building using a freshly built Make (4.2.1-69-g8a731d1), but already the objtool build broke with orc_dump.c: In function ‘orc_dump’: orc_dump.c:106:2: error: ‘elf_getshnum’ is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-declarations] if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) { Turns out that with that new Make, the backslash was not removed, so cpp didn't see a #include directive, grep found nothing, and -DLIBELF_USE_DEPRECATED was wrongly put in CFLAGS. Now, that new Make behaviour is documented in their NEWS file: * WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes: thus a call such as: foo := $(shell echo '#') is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example: foo := $(shell echo '\#') Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable: C := \# foo := $(shell echo '$C') This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason. To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable. This also fixes up the two make-cmd instances to replace # with $(pound) rather than with \#. There might very well be other places that need similar fixup in preparation for whatever future Make release contains the above change, but at least this builds an x86_64 defconfig with the new make.

kbuild: do not create *.prelink.o for Clang LTO or IBT 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) Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier <nicolas@fjasle.eu> Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> # LLVM-14 (x86-64) Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>

kbuild: sink stdout from cmd for silent build When building with 'make -s', no output to stdout should be printed. As Arnd Bergmann reported [1], mkimage shows the detailed information of the generated images. I think this should be suppressed by the 'cmd' macro instead of by individual scripts. Insert 'exec >/dev/null;' in order to redirect stdout to /dev/null for silent builds. [Note about this implementation] 'exec >/dev/null;' may look somewhat tricky, but this has a reason. Appending '>/dev/null' at the end of command line is a common way for redirection, so I first tried this: cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) $(cmd_$(1)) >/dev/null ... but it would not work if $(cmd_$(1)) itself contains a redirection. For example, cmd_wrap in scripts/Makefile.asm-generic redirects the output from the 'echo' command into the target file. It would be expanded into: echo "#include <asm-generic/$*.h>" > $@ >/dev/null Then, the target file gets empty because the string will go to /dev/null instead of $@. Next, I tried this: cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) { $(cmd_$(1)); } >/dev/null The form above would be expanded into: { echo "#include <asm-generic/$*.h>" > $@; } >/dev/null This works as expected. However, it would be a syntax error if $(cmd_$(1)) is empty. When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is disabled, $(call cmd,gen_ksymdeps) in scripts/Makefile.build would be expanded into: set -e; { ; } >/dev/null ..., which causes an syntax error. I also tried this: cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) ( $(cmd_$(1)) ) >/dev/null ... but this causes a syntax error for the same reason. So, finally I adopted: cmd = @set -e; $(echo-cmd) exec >/dev/null; $(cmd_$(1)) [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210514135752.2910387-1-arnd@kernel.org/ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

kbuild: drop $(wildcard $^) check in if_changed* for faster rebuild The incremental build of Linux kernel is pretty slow when lots of objects are compiled. The rebuild of allmodconfig may take a few minutes even when none of the objects needs to be rebuilt. The time-consuming part in the incremental build is the evaluation of if_changed* macros since they are used in the recipes to compile C and assembly source files into objects. I notice the following code in if_changed* is expensive: $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) In the incremental build, every object has its .*.cmd file, which contains the auto-generated list of included headers. So, $^ are expanded into the long list of the source file + included headers, and $(wildcard $^) checks whether they exist. It may not be clear why this check exists there. Here is the record of my research. [1] The first code addition into Kbuild This code dates back to 2002. It is the pre-git era. So, I copy-pasted it from the historical git tree. | commit 4a6db0791528c220655b063cf13fefc8470dbfee (HEAD) | Author: Kai Germaschewski <kai@tp1.ruhr-uni-bochum.de> | Date: Mon Jun 17 00:22:37 2002 -0500 | | kbuild: Handle removed headers | | New and old way to handle dependencies would choke when a file | #include'd by other files was removed, since the dependency on it was | still recorded, but since it was gone, make has no idea what to do about | it (and would complain with "No rule to make <file> ...") | | We now add targets for all the previously included files, so make will | just ignore them if they disappear. | | diff --git a/Rules.make b/Rules.make | index 6ef827d3df39..7db5301ea7db 100644 | --- a/Rules.make | +++ b/Rules.make | @@ -446,7 +446,7 @@ if_changed = $(if $(strip $? \ | # execute the command and also postprocess generated .d dependencies | # file | | -if_changed_dep = $(if $(strip $? \ | +if_changed_dep = $(if $(strip $? $(filter-out FORCE $(wildcard $^),$^)\ | $(filter-out $(cmd_$(1)),$(cmd_$@))\ | $(filter-out $(cmd_$@),$(cmd_$(1)))),\ | @set -e; \ | diff --git a/scripts/fixdep.c b/scripts/fixdep.c | index b5d7bee8efc7..db45bd1888c0 100644 | --- a/scripts/fixdep.c | +++ b/scripts/fixdep.c | @@ -292,7 +292,7 @@ void parse_dep_file(void *map, size_t len) | exit(1); | } | memcpy(s, m, p-m); s[p-m] = 0; | - printf("%s: \\\n", target); | + printf("deps_%s := \\\n", target); | m = p+1; | | clear_config(); | @@ -314,7 +314,8 @@ void parse_dep_file(void *map, size_t len) | } | m = p + 1; | } | - printf("\n"); | + printf("\n%s: $(deps_%s)\n\n", target, target); | + printf("$(deps_%s):\n", target); | } | | void print_deps(void) The "No rule to make <file> ..." error can be solved by passing -MP to the compiler, but I think the detection of header removal is a good feature. When a header is removed, all source files that previously included it should be re-compiled. This makes sure we has correctly got rid of #include directives of it. This is also related with the behavior of $?. The GNU Make manual says: $? The names of all the prerequisites that are newer than the target, with spaces between them. This does not explain whether a non-existent prerequisite is considered to be newer than the target. At this point of time, GNU Make 3.7x was used, where the $? did not include non-existent prerequisites. Therefore, $(filter-out FORCE $(wildcard $^),$^) was useful to detect the header removal, and to rebuild the related objects if it is the case. [2] Change of $? behavior Later, the behavior of $? was changed (fixed) to include prerequisites that did not exist. First, GNU Make commit 64e16d6c00a5 ("Various changes getting ready for the release of 3.81.") changed it, but in the release test of 3.81, it turned out to break the kernel build. See these: - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html - https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?16002 - https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?16051 Then, GNU Make commit 6d8d9b74d9c5 ("Numerous updates to tests for issues found on Cygwin and Windows.") reverted it for the 3.81 release to give Linux kernel time to adjust to the new behavior. After the 3.81 release, GNU Make commit 7595f38f62af ("Fixed a number of documentation bugs, plus some build/install issues:") re-added it. [3] Adjustment to the new $? behavior on Kbuild side Meanwhile, the kernel build was changed by commit 4f1933620f57 ("kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior") to adjust to the new $? behavior. [4] GNU Make 3.82 released in 2010 GNU Make 3.82 was the first release that integrated the correct $? behavior. At this point, Kbuild dealt with GNU Make versions with different $? behaviors. 3.81 or older: $? does not contain any non-existent prerequisite. $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) was useful to detect removed include headers. 3.82 or newer: $? contains non-existent prerequisites. When a header is removed, it appears in $?. $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) became a redundant check. With the correct $? behavior, we could have dropped the expensive check for 3.82 or later, but we did not. (Maybe nobody noticed this optimization.) [5] The .SECONDARY special target trips up $? Some time later, I noticed $? did not work as expected under some circumstances. As above, $? should contain non-existent prerequisites, but the ones specified as SECONDARY do not appear in $?. I asked this in GNU Make ML, and it seems a bug: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2019-01/msg00001.html Since commit 8e9b61b293d9 ("kbuild: move .SECONDARY special target to Kbuild.include"), all files, including headers listed in .*.cmd files, are treated as secondary. So, we are back into the incorrect $? behavior. If we Kbuild want to react to the header removal, we need to keep $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) but this makes the rebuild so slow. [Summary] - I believe noticing the header removal and recompiling related objects is a nice feature for the build system. - If $? worked correctly, $(filter-out $(PHONY),$?) would be enough to detect the header removal. - Currently, $? does not work correctly when used with .SECONDARY, and Kbuild is hit by this bug. - I filed a bug report for this, but not fixed yet as of writing. - Currently, the header removal is detected by the following expensive code: $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) - I do not want to revert commit 8e9b61b293d9 ("kbuild: move .SECONDARY special target to Kbuild.include"). Specifying .SECONDARY globally is clean, and it matches to the Kbuild policy. This commit proactively removes the expensive check since it makes the incremental build faster. A downside is Kbuild will no longer be able to notice the header removal. You can confirm it by the full-build followed by a header removal, and then re-build. $ make defconfig all [ full build ] $ rm include/linux/device.h $ make CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CALL scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh DESCEND objtool CHK include/generated/compile.h Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#11) Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 12 modules Previously, Kbuild noticed a missing header and emits a build error. Now, Kbuild is fine with it. This is an unusual corner-case, not a big deal.

kbuild: add fine grained build dependencies for exported symbols Like with kconfig options, we now have the ability to compile in and out individual EXPORT_SYMBOL() declarations based on the content of include/generated/autoksyms.h. However we don't want the entire world to be rebuilt whenever that file is touched. Let's apply the same build dependency trick used for CONFIG_* symbols where the time stamp of empty files whose paths matching those symbols is used to trigger fine grained rebuilds. In our case the key is the symbol name passed to EXPORT_SYMBOL(). However, unlike config options, we cannot just use fixdep to parse the source code for EXPORT_SYMBOL(ksym) because several variants exist and parsing them all in a separate tool, and keeping it in synch, is not trivially maintainable. Furthermore, there are variants such as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pci_user_read_config_##size); that are instanciated via a macro for which we can't easily determine the actual exported symbol name(s) short of actually running the preprocessor on them. Storing the symbol name string in a special ELF section doesn't work for targets that output assembly or preprocessed source. So the best way is really to leverage the preprocessor by having it output actual symbol names anchored by a special sequence that can be easily filtered out. Then the list of symbols is simply fed to fixdep to be merged with the other dependencies. That implies the preprocessor is executed twice for each source file. A previous attempt relied on a warning pragma for each EXPORT_SYMBOL() instance that was filtered apart from stderr by the build system with a sed script during the actual compilation pass. Unfortunately the preprocessor/compiler diagnostic output isn't stable between versions and this solution, although more efficient, was deemed too fragile. Because of the lowercasing performed by fixdep, there might be name collisions triggering spurious rebuilds for similar symbols. But this shouldn't be a big issue in practice. (This is the case for CONFIG_* symbols and I didn't want to be different here, whatever the original reason for doing so.) To avoid needless build overhead, the exported symbol name gathering is performed only when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is selected.

kbuild: change if_changed_rule for multi-line recipe The 'define' ... 'endef' directive is useful to confine a series of shell commands into a single macro: define foo [action1] [action2] [action3] endif Each action is executed in a separate subshell. However, rule_cc_o_c and rule_as_o_S in scripts/Makefile.build are written as follows (with a trailing semicolon in each cmd_*): define rule_cc_o_c [action1] ; \ [action2] ; \ [action3] ; endef All shell commands are concatenated with '; \' so that it looks like a single command from the Makefile point of view. This does not exploit the benefits of 'define' ... 'endef' form because a single shell command can be more simply written, like this: rule_cc_o_c = \ [action1] ; \ [action2] ; \ [action3] ; I guess the intention for the command concatenation was to let the '@set -e' in if_changed_rule cover all the commands. We can improve the readability by moving '@set -e' to the 'cmd' macro. The combo of $(call echo-cmd,*) $(cmd_*) in rule_cc_o_c and rule_as_o_S have been replaced with $(call cmd,*). The trailing back-slashes have been removed. Here is a note about the performance: the commands in rule_cc_o_c and rule_as_o_S were previously executed all together in a single subshell, but now each line in a separate subshell. This means Make will spawn extra subshells [1]. I measured the build performance for x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_MODVERSIONS + CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS and I saw slight performance regression, but I believe code readability and maintainability wins. [1] Precisely, GNU Make may optimize this by executing the command directly instead of forking a subshell, if no shell special characters are found in the command line and omitting the subshell will not change the behavior.

kbuild: let fixdep directly write to .*.cmd files Currently, fixdep writes dependencies to .*.tmp, which is renamed to .*.cmd after everything succeeds. This is a very safe way to avoid corrupted .*.cmd files. The if_changed_dep has carried this safety mechanism since it was added in 2002. If fixdep fails for some reasons or a user terminates the build while fixdep is running, the incomplete output from the fixdep could be troublesome. This is my insight about some bad scenarios: [1] If the compiler succeeds to generate *.o file, but fixdep fails to write necessary dependencies to .*.cmd file, Make will miss to rebuild the object when headers or CONFIG options are changed. In this case, fixdep should not generate .*.cmd file at all so that 'arg-check' will surely trigger the rebuild of the object. [2] A partially constructed .*.cmd file may not be a syntactically correct makefile. The next time Make runs, it would include it, then fail to parse it. Once this happens, 'make clean' is be the only way to fix it. In fact, [1] is no longer a problem since commit 9c2af1c7377a ("kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target"). Make deletes a target file on any failure in its recipe. Because fixdep is a part of the recipe of *.o target, if it fails, the *.o is deleted anyway. However, I am a bit worried about the slight possibility of [2]. So, here is a solution. Let fixdep directly write to a .*.cmd file, but allow makefiles to include it only when its corresponding target exists. This effectively reverts commit 2982c953570b ("kbuild: remove redundant $(wildcard ...) for cmd_files calculation"), and commit 00d78ab2ba75 ("kbuild: remove dead code in cmd_files calculation in top Makefile") because now we must check the presence of targets.

kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target If Make gets a fatal signal while a shell is executing, it may delete the target file that the recipe was supposed to update. This is needed to make sure that it is remade from scratch when Make is next run; if Make is interrupted after the recipe has begun to write the target file, it results in an incomplete file whose time stamp is newer than that of the prerequisites files. Make automatically deletes the incomplete file on interrupt unless the target is marked .PRECIOUS. The situation is just the same as when the shell fails for some reasons. Usually when a recipe line fails, if it has changed the target file at all, the file is corrupted, or at least it is not completely updated. Yet the file’s time stamp says that it is now up to date, so the next time Make runs, it will not try to update that file. However, Make does not cater to delete the incomplete target file in this case. We need to add .DELETE_ON_ERROR somewhere in the Makefile to request it. scripts/Kbuild.include seems a suitable place to add it because it is included from almost all sub-makes. Please note .DELETE_ON_ERROR is not effective for phony targets. The external module building should never ever touch the kernel tree. The following recipe fails if include/generated/autoconf.h is missing. However, include/config/auto.conf is not deleted since it is a phony target.
