As a Kernel developer, I make heavy use of "make targz-pkg" in order
to locally compile and remotely install my development Kernels. The
nice feature I rely on is that after a normal "make", "make targz-pkg"
only generates the tarball without having to recompile everything.
That was true until commit f28bc3c32c ("tracing: Handle
CC_FLAGS_FTRACE more accurately"). After it, running "make targz-pkg"
after "make" will recompile the whole Kernel tree, making my
development workflow much slower.
The Kernel is choosing to recompile everything because it claims the
command line has changed. A diff of the .cmd files show a repeated
-mfentry in one of the files. That is because "make targz-pkg" calls
"make modules_install" and the environment is already populated with
the exported variables, CC_FLAGS_FTRACE being one of them. Then,
-mfentry gets duplicated because it is not protected behind an ifndef
block, like -pg.
To complicate the problem a little bit more, architectures can define
their own version CC_FLAGS_FTRACE, so our code not only has to
consider recursive Makefiles, but also architecture overrides.
So in this patch we move CC_FLAGS_FTRACE up and unconditionally
define it to -pg. Then we let the architecture Makefiles possibly
override it, and finally append the extra options later. This ensures
the variable is always fully redefined at each invocation so recursive
Makefiles don't keep appending, and hopefully it maintains the
intended behavior on how architectures can override the defaults..
Thanks Steven Rostedt and Vasily Gorbik for the help on this
regression.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Correct the L1TF fallout on 32bit and the off by one in the 'too much
RAM for protection' calculation.
- Add a helpful kernel message for the 'too much RAM' case
- Unbreak the VDSO in case that the compiler desides to use indirect
jumps/calls and emits retpolines which cannot be resolved because the
kernel uses its own thunks, which does not work for the VDSO. Make it
use the builtin thunks.
- Re-export start_thread() which was unexported when the 32/64bit
implementation was unified. start_thread() is required by modular
binfmt handlers.

Commit 06c5040cdb ("kbuild: enable 'make CPPFLAGS=...' to add

For some reason, LDFLAGS was not renamed.
Using a well-known variable like LDFLAGS may result in accidental
override of the variable.
Kbuild generally uses KBUILD_ prefixed variables for the internally
appended options, so here is one more conversion to sanitize the
naming convention.
I did not touch Makefiles under tools/ since the tools build system
is a different world.

- Restructure of lockdep and latency tracers
This is the biggest change. Joel Fernandes restructured the hooks
from irqs and preemption disabling and enabling. He got rid of
a lot of the preprocessor #ifdef mess that they caused.
He turned both lockdep and the latency tracers to use trace events
inserted in the preempt/irqs disabling paths. But unfortunately,
these started to cause issues in corner cases. Thus, parts of the
code was reverted back to where lockde and the latency tracers
just get called directly (without using the trace events).
But because the original change cleaned up the code very nicely
we kept that, as well as the trace events for preempt and irqs
disabling, but they are limited to not being called in NMIs.
- Have trace events use SRCU for "rcu idle" calls. This was required
for the preempt/irqs off trace events. But it also had to not
allow them to be called in NMI context. Waiting till Paul makes
an NMI safe SRCU API.
- New notrace SRCU API to allow trace events to use SRCU.
- Addition of mcount-nop option support
- SPDX headers replacing GPL templates.
- Various other fixes and clean ups.
- Some fixes are marked for stable, but were not fully tested
before the merge window opened.

CC_FLAGS_FTRACE is exported and later used to remove ftrace relevant
build flags from files which should be built without ftrace support.
For that reason add -mfentry to CC_FLAGS_FTRACE as well. That fixes
a problem with vdso32 build on s390, where -mfentry could not be used
together with -m31 flag.
At the same time flags like -pg and -mfentry are not relevant for asm
files, so avoid adding them to KBUILD_AFLAGS.
Introduce CC_FLAGS_USING instead of CC_USING_FENTRY to collect
-DCC_USING_FENTRY (and future alike) which are relevant for both
KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_AFLAGS.

Kernel headers must be installed into $(objtree)/usr/include to avoid

addressed this, but "samples/" is only used for the single target build.
"make samples/" properly installs kernel headers, but it does not work

The top-level Makefile adds include/config/auto.conf as

is missing.
Now that the inclusion of include/config/auto.conf is mandatory
in the top-level Makefile if dot-config is 1 (Note 'include' directive
is used instead of '-include').
Make terminates the build by itself if it fails to create or update
include/config/auto.conf so we are sure that include/config/auto.conf
exists in the very first stage of make.
I am still keeping include/config/auto.conf as the prerequisite of
%/modules.builtin because modules.builtin is a real file. According
to commit a6c366324c ("kbuild: Do not unnecessarily regenerate
modules.builtin"), it is intentional to compare time-stamps between

'make kernelrelease' depends on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION(_AUTO), but
for the same reason as install targets, we do not want to update
the configuration just for printing the kernelrelease string.
This is likely to happen when you compiled the kernel with
CROSS_COMPILE, but forget to pass it to 'make kernelrelease'.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
"make syncconfig" is automatically invoked when any of the following
happens:
- .config is updated
- any of Kconfig files is updated
- any of environment variables referenced in Kconfig is changed
Then, it updates configuration files such as include/config/auto.conf
include/generated/autoconf.h, etc.
Even install targets (install, modules_install, etc.) are no exception.
However, they should never ever modify the source tree. Install
targets are often run with root privileges. Once those configuration
files are owned by root, "make mrproper" would end up with permission
error.
Install targets should just copy things blindly. They should not care
whether the configuration is up-to-date or not. This makes more sense
because we are interested in the configuration that was used in the
previous kernel building.
This issue has existed since before, but rarely happened. I expect
more chance where people are hit by this; with the new Kconfig syntax
extension, the .config now contains the compiler information. If you
cross-compile the kernel with CROSS_COMPILE, but forget to pass it
for "make install", you meet "any of environment variables referenced
in Kconfig is changed" because $(CC) is referenced in Kconfig.
Another scenario is the compiler upgrade before the installation.
Install targets need the configuration. "make modules_install" refer
to CONFIG_MODULES etc. "make dtbs_install" also needs CONFIG_ARCH_*
to decide which dtb files to install. However, the auto-update of
the configuration files should be avoided. We already do this for
external modules.
Now, Make targets are categorized into 3 groups:
[1] Do not need the kernel configuration at all
help, coccicheck, headers_install etc.
[2] Need the latest kernel configuration
If new config options are added, Kconfig will show prompt to
ask user's selection.
Build targets such as vmlinux, in-kernel modules are the cases.
[3] Need the kernel configuration, but do not want to update it
Install targets except headers_install, and external modules
are the cases.

When you build targets that require the kernel configuration, dot-config
is set to 1, then the top-level Makefile includes auto.conf. However,
Make considers its inclusion is optional because the '-include' directive
is used here.
If a necessary configuration file is missing for the external module
building, the following error message is displayed:
ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.
Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.
However, Make still continues building; /bin/false let the creation of
'include/config/auto.config' fail, but Make can ignore the error since
it is included by the '-include' directive.
I guess the reason of using '-include' directive was to suppress
the warning when you build the kernel from a pristine source tree:
Makefile:605: include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory
The previous commit made sure include/config/auto.conf exists after
the 'make *config' stage. Now, we can use the 'include' directive
without showing the warning.

With the brand-new syntax extension of Kconfig, we can directly

If the cc-can-link.sh fails, the BPFILTER_UMH is automatically
hidden by the dependency.

The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler
support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler
supported.
That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case
now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support
directly.
HOWEVER.
It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong
stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file,
the sane stack protector configuration would look like
CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y
and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes,
it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had
been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version
used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would
disable it in the new config, resulting in:
CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y
That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with
the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing.
The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack
protector option, but also the strong one. This does that by just
removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really
is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead
automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users).
This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their
choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes.
The end result would generally look like this:
CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y
where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler
infrastructure, not the user selections.

As Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt notes, 'select' should be
be used with care - it forces a lower limit of another symbol, ignoring
the dependency. Currently, KCOV can select GCC_PLUGINS even if arch
does not select HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS. This could cause the unmet direct
dependency.
Now that Kconfig can test compiler capability, let's handle this in a
more sophisticated way.
There are two ways to enable KCOV; use the compiler that natively
supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc, or build the SANCOV plugin if
the compiler has ability to build GCC plugins. Hence, the correct
dependency for KCOV is:
depends on CC_HAS_SANCOV_TRACE_PC || GCC_PLUGINS
You do not need to build the SANCOV plugin if the compiler already
supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc. Hence, the select should be:
select GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV if !CC_HAS_SANCOV_TRACE_PC
With this, GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV is selected only when necessary, so
scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins can be cleaner.
I also cleaned up Kconfig and scripts/Makefile.kcov as well.

Move the test for -fstack-protector(-strong) option to Kconfig.
If the compiler does not support the option, the corresponding menu
is automatically hidden. If STRONG is not supported, it will fall
back to REGULAR. If REGULAR is not supported, it will be disabled.
This means, AUTO is implicitly handled by the dependency solver of
Kconfig, hence removed.
I also turned the 'choice' into only two boolean symbols. The use of
'choice' is not a good idea here, because all of all{yes,mod,no}config
would choose the first visible value, while we want allnoconfig to
disable as many features as possible.
X86 has additional shell scripts in case the compiler supports those
options, but generates broken code. I added CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR
to test this. I had to add -m32 to gcc-x86_32-has-stack-protector.sh
to make it work correctly.

Commit 21c54b7747 ("kconfig: show compiler version text in the top
comment") was intended to detect the compiler upgrade, but Geert
reported a breakage on the m68k build.
The compiler upgrade is detected by the change of the environment
variable, CC_VERSION_TEXT, which contains the first line of the output
from $(CC) --version. Currently, this works well when CROSS_COMPILE
is given via the environment variable or the Make command line.
However, some architectures such as m68k can specify CROSS_COMPILE
from arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile as well. In this case, "make ARCH=m68k"
ends up with endless syncconfig loop.
$ make ARCH=m68k defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'multi_defconfig'
#
# configuration written to .config
#
$ make ARCH=m68k
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig
Things are happening like this:
Because arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile is included after CC_VERSION_TEXT
is set, it contains the host compiler version in the defconfig phase.
To create or update auto.conf, the following line is triggered:
include/config/%.conf: $(KCONFIG_CONFIG) include/config/auto.conf.cmd
$(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile syncconfig
This recurses the top Makefile after arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile is
included. CROSS_COMPILE is set to a m68k toolchain prefix and
exported to the recursed Make. Then, syncconfig is invoked with
the target compiler version in CC_VERSION_TEXT.
The Make will restart because auto.conf and auto.conf.cmd have been
updated. At this point, CROSS_COMPILE is reset, so CC_VERSION_TEXT
is set to the host compiler version again. Then, syncconfig is
triggered due to the change of CC_VERSION_TEXT. This loop continues
eternally.
To fix this problem, $(CC_VERSION_TEXT) must be evaluated only after
arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. Setting it earlier is OK as long as it is
defined by using the '=' operator instead of ':='.
For the defconfig phase, $(CC_VERSION_TEXT) is evaluated when Kbuild
descends into scripts/kconfig/, so it contains the target compiler
version correctly.
include/config/auto.conf.cmd references $(CC_VERSION_TEXT) as well,
so it must be included after arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile.

Kconfig now supports new functionality to perform textual substitution.
It has been a while since Linus suggested to move compiler option tests
from makefiles to Kconfig. Finally, here it is. The implementation has
been generalized into a Make-like macro language. Some built-in functions
such as 'shell' are provided. Variables and user-defined functions are
also supported so that 'cc-option', 'ld-option', etc. are implemented as
macros.
Summary:

- remove unused/unmaintained localization support
- remove Kbuild cache
- drop CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE support
- replace 'option env=' with direct variable expansion
- add built-in functions such as 'shell'
- support variables and user-defined functions
- add helper macros as as 'cc-option'
- add unit tests and a document of the new macro language
- add 'testconfig' to help
