allnoconfig_y is an ugly hack that sets a symbol to 'y' by allnoconfig.
allnoconfig does not mean a minimal set of CONFIG options because a
bunch of prompts are hidden by 'if EMBEDDED' or 'if EXPERT', but I do
not like to hack Kconfig this way.
Use the pre-existing feature, KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, to provide a one
liner config fragment. CONFIG_EMBEDDED=y is still forced when
allnoconfig is invoked as a part of tinyconfig.
No change in the .config file produced by 'make tinyconfig'.
The output of 'make allnoconfig' will be changed; we will get
CONFIG_EMBEDDED=n because allnoconfig literally sets all symbols to n.

"defconfig_list" is a weird option that defines a static symbol that
declares the list of base config files in case the .config does not
exist yet.
This is quite different from other normal symbols; we just abused the
"string" type and the "default" properties to list out the input files.
They must be fixed values since these are searched for and loaded in
the parse stage.
It is an ugly hack, and should not exist in the first place. Providing
this feature as an environment variable is a saner approach.

CONFIG_CFI_CLANG_SHADOW assumes the __cfi_check() function is page
aligned and at the beginning of the .text section. While Clang would
normally align the function correctly, it fails to do so for modules
with no executable code.
This change ensures the correct __cfi_check() location and
alignment. It also discards the .eh_frame section, which Clang can
generate with certain sanitizers, such as CFI.

This change adds support for Clang’s forward-edge Control Flow
Integrity (CFI) checking. With CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, the compiler
injects a runtime check before each indirect function call to ensure
the target is a valid function with the correct static type. This
restricts possible call targets and makes it more difficult for
an attacker to exploit bugs that allow the modification of stored
function pointers. For more details, see:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ControlFlowIntegrity.html
Clang requires CONFIG_LTO_CLANG to be enabled with CFI to gain
visibility to possible call targets. Kernel modules are supported
with Clang’s cross-DSO CFI mode, which allows checking between
independently compiled components.
With CFI enabled, the compiler injects a __cfi_check() function into
the kernel and each module for validating local call targets. For
cross-module calls that cannot be validated locally, the compiler
calls the global __cfi_slowpath_diag() function, which determines
the target module and calls the correct __cfi_check() function. This
patch includes a slowpath implementation that uses __module_address()
to resolve call targets, and with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG_SHADOW enabled, a
shadow map that speeds up module look-ups by ~3x.
Clang implements indirect call checking using jump tables and
offers two methods of generating them. With canonical jump tables,
the compiler renames each address-taken function to <function>.cfi
and points the original symbol to a jump table entry, which passes
__cfi_check() validation. This isn’t compatible with stand-alone
assembly code, which the compiler doesn’t instrument, and would
result in indirect calls to assembly code to fail. Therefore, we
default to using non-canonical jump tables instead, where the compiler
generates a local jump table entry <function>.cfi_jt for each
address-taken function, and replaces all references to the function
with the address of the jump table entry.
Note that because non-canonical jump table addresses are local
to each component, they break cross-module function address
equality. Specifically, the address of a global function will be
different in each module, as it's replaced with the address of a local
jump table entry. If this address is passed to a different module,
it won’t match the address of the same function taken there. This
may break code that relies on comparing addresses passed from other
components.
CFI checking can be disabled in a function with the __nocfi attribute.
Additionally, CFI can be disabled for an entire compilation unit by
filtering out CC_FLAGS_CFI.
By default, CFI failures result in a kernel panic to stop a potential
exploit. CONFIG_CFI_PERMISSIVE enables a permissive mode, where the
kernel prints out a rate-limited warning instead, and allows execution
to continue. This option is helpful for locating type mismatches, but
should only be enabled during development.

The current option parse code is clumsy.
The 's' option is separately handled in an if-conditional due to the
following code:
input_mode = (enum input_mode)opt;
If 's' is moved to the switch statement, the invalid value 's' would
be assigned to the input_mode.
Another potential problem is that we are mixing 'enum input_mode' and
ASCII characters. They could overwrap if we add more input modes.
To separate them out, set the flag field of long options to a pointer
of input_mode_opt. For mode select options, getopt_long() returns 0,
which never causes overwrap with ASCII characters that represent short
options.

VPATH is used in Kbuild to make pattern rules search for prerequisites
in both $(objtree) and $(srctree). Some of *.c, *.S files are not real
sources, but generated by tools such as flex, bison, perl.
In contrast, I doubt the benefit of --include-dir=$(abs_srctree) because
it is always clear which Makefiles are real sources, and which are not.
So, my hope is to add $(srctree)/ prefix to all check-in Makefiles,
then remove --include-dir=$(abs_srctree) flag in the future.

Commit ce88c9c794 ("kbuild: Add support to build overlays (%.dtbo)")
added the third case:

This works thanks to commit 163f0469bf2e ("dtc: Allow overlays to have
.dtbo extension") in the upstream DTC, which has already been pulled in
the kernel.
However, I think it is a bit odd because "dtbo" is not a format name.
At least, it does not show up in the help message of dtc.
$ scripts/dtc/dtc --help

-O, --out-format <arg>
Output formats are:
dts - device tree source text
dtb - device tree blob
yaml - device tree encoded as YAML
asm - assembler source
So, I am not a big fan of the second hunk of that change:
} else if (streq(outform, "dtbo")) {
dt_to_blob(outf, dti, outversion);
Anyway, we did not need to do this in Makefile in the first place.
guess_type_by_name() had already understood ".yaml" before commit

On 32-bit kernels, the stackprotector canary is quite nasty -- it is
stored at %gs:(20), which is nasty because 32-bit kernels use %fs for
percpu storage. It's even nastier because it means that whether %gs
contains userspace state or kernel state while running kernel code
depends on whether stackprotector is enabled (this is
CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS), and this setting radically changes the way
that segment selectors work. Supporting both variants is a
maintenance and testing mess.
Merely rearranging so that percpu and the stack canary
share the same segment would be messy as the 32-bit percpu address
layout isn't currently compatible with putting a variable at a fixed
offset.
Fortunately, GCC 8.1 added options that allow the stack canary to be
accessed as %fs:__stack_chk_guard, effectively turning it into an ordinary
percpu variable. This lets us get rid of all of the code to manage the
stack canary GDT descriptor and the CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS mess.
(That name is special. We could use any symbol we want for the
%fs-relative mode, but for CONFIG_SMP=n, gcc refuses to let us use any
name other than __stack_chk_guard.)
Forcibly disable stackprotector on older compilers that don't support
the new options and turn the stack canary into a percpu variable. The
"lazy GS" approach is now used for all 32-bit configurations.
Also makes load_gs_index() work on 32-bit kernels. On 64-bit kernels,
it loads the GS selector and updates the user GSBASE accordingly. (This
is unchanged.) On 32-bit kernels, it loads the GS selector and updates
GSBASE, which is now always the user base. This means that the overall
effect is the same on 32-bit and 64-bit, which avoids some ifdeffery.

Add a new verbose mode to checkpatch.pl to emit additional verbose
test descriptions. The verbose mode is optional and can be enabled
by the flag -v or --verbose.
The test descriptions are parsed from the checkpatch documentation
file at `Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst`. The test
descriptions in the docs are kept in a fixed format grouped by
usage. Some examples of this format are:
**LINE_SPACING**
Vertical space is wasted given the limited number of lines an
editor window can display when multiple blank lines are used.
**MISSING_SIGN_OFF**
The patch is missing a Signed-off-by line. A signed-off-by
line should be added according to Developer's certificate of
Origin.
To avoid lengthy output, the verbose description is printed only
for the first instance of a particular message type.
The --verbose option cannot be used along with the --terse option.
Verbose mode can be used with the --list-types option.
The --list-types output also supports color coding now.

Currently, there are ~1290 occurrences in 447 files in the kernel tree
'typedef struct/union' syntax for defining some struct/union. However,
kernel-doc currently does not support that syntax. Of the ~1290
occurrences, there are four occurrences in ./include/linux/zstd.h with
typedef struct/union syntax and a preceding kernel-doc; all other
occurrences have no preceding kernel-doc.
Add support for parsing struct/union following this syntax.

Add a new target to bpf_doc.py to support generating the list of syscall
commands directly from the UAPI headers. Assuming that developer
submissions keep the main header up to date, this should allow the man
pages to be automatically generated based on the latest API changes
rather than requiring someone to separately go back through the API and
describe each command.

On little endian system, Use aarch64_be(gcc v7.3) downloaded from
linaro.org to build image with CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN = y,
CONFIG_FTRACE = y, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE = y.
gcc will create symbols of _mcount but recordmcount can not create
mcount_loc for *.o.
aarch64_be-linux-gnu-objdump -r fs/namei.o | grep mcount
00000000000000d0 R_AARCH64_CALL26 _mcount
...
0000000000007190 R_AARCH64_CALL26 _mcount
The reason is than funciton arm64_is_fake_mcount can not work correctly.
A symbol of _mcount in *.o compiled with big endian compiler likes:
00 00 00 2d 00 00 01 1b
w(rp->r_info) will return 0x2d instead of 0x011b. Because w() takes
uint32_t as parameter, which truncates rp->r_info.
Use w8() instead w() to read relp->r_info

Since GCC 8.0 -fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow doesn't work with
-fwrapv. -fwrapv makes signed overflows defines and GCC essentially
disables ubsan checks. On GCC < 8.0 -fwrapv doesn't have influence on
-fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow setting, so it kinda works but
generates false-positves and violates uaccess rules:
lib/iov_iter.o: warning: objtool: iovec_from_user()+0x22d: call to
__ubsan_handle_add_overflow() with UACCESS enabled
Disable signed overflow checks to avoid these problems. Remove unsigned
overflow checks as well. Unsigned overflow appeared as side effect of
commit cdf8a76fda ("ubsan: move cc-option tests into Kconfig"), but it
never worked (kernel doesn't boot). And unsigned overflows are allowed by
C standard, so it just pointless.

objtool requires that all code must be contained in an ELF symbol. Symbol
names that have a '.L' prefix do not emit symbol table entries, as they

'.L' prefixed symbols can be used within a code region, but should be

Add a new check to emit a warning on finding the usage of '.L' symbols for
'.S' files, if it denotes range of code via SYM_*_START/END annotation

Use copies of $sline and $prevline, remove $Attribute and $Sparse, and use

Here is the large set of char/misc/whatever driver subsystem updates for
5.12-rc1. Over time it seems like this tree is collecting more and more
tiny driver subsystems in one place, making it easier for those
maintainers, which is why this is getting larger.
Included in here are:
- coresight driver updates
- habannalabs driver updates
- virtual acrn driver addition (proper acks from the x86
maintainers)
- broadcom misc driver addition
- speakup driver updates
- soundwire driver updates
- fpga driver updates
- amba driver updates
- mei driver updates
- vfio driver updates
- greybus driver updates
- nvmeem driver updates
- phy driver updates
- mhi driver updates
- interconnect driver udpates
- fsl-mc bus driver updates
- random driver fix
- some small misc driver updates (rtsx, pvpanic, etc.)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with the only reported
issue being a merge conflict in include/linux/mod_devicetable.h that you
will hit in your tree due to the dfl_device_id addition from the fpga
subsystem in here. The resolution should be simple.

Unify the similar build rules.
This supports 'make build_config', which builds scripts/kconfig/conf
but does not invoke it.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
scripts/kconfig/conf.c line 39 defines the default of input_mode as
oldaskconfig. Hence, 'make config' works in the same way even without
the --oldaskconfig option given. Note this in the help message.
This will be helpful to unify build rules in Makefile in the next
commit.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
scripts/kconfig/conf supports -? option to show the help message.
This is not wired up to Makefile, so nobody would notice this, but
it also shows 'invalid option' message.
$ ./scripts/kconfig/conf -?
./scripts/kconfig/conf: invalid option -- '?'
Usage: ./scripts/kconfig/conf [-s] [option] <kconfig-file>
[option] is _one_ of the following:
--listnewconfig List new options
--helpnewconfig List new options and help text
--oldaskconfig Start a new configuration using a line-oriented program
...
The reason is the '?' is missing in the short option list passed to
getopt_long().
While I fixed this issue, I also changed the option '?' to 'h'.
I prefer -h (or --help, if a long option is also desired).

conf_askvalue() is only called for oldconfig, syncconfig, and

Unify the outer two if-conditionals into one. This decreases the

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.

This change adds a --noinstr flag to objtool to allow us to specify
that we're processing vmlinux.o without also enabling noinstr

"Clang Link Time Optimization.
This is built on the work done preparing for LTO by arm64 folks,
tracing folks, etc. This includes the core changes as well as the
remaining pieces for arm64 (LTO has been the default build method on
Android for about 3 years now, as it is the prerequisite for the
Control Flow Integrity protections).
While x86 LTO enablement is done, it depends on some pending objtool
clean-ups. It's possible that I'll send a "part 2" pull request for
LTO that includes x86 support.
For merge log posterity, and as detailed in commit dc5723b02e
("kbuild: add support for Clang LTO"), here is the lt;dr to do an LTO
build:
make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig
scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN
make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
(To do a cross-compile of arm64, add "CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-"
and "ARCH=arm64" to the "make" command lines.)

Currently, kernel-doc causes an unexpected error when array element (i.e.,
"type (*foo[bar])(args)") is present as pointer parameter in
pointer-to-function parsing.
For e.g., running kernel-doc -none on kernel/gcov/gcc_4_7.c causes this
error:
"Use of uninitialized value $param in regexp compilation at ...", in
combination with:
"warning: Function parameter or member '' not described in 'gcov_info'"
Here, the parameter parsing does not take into account the presence of
array element (i.e. square brackets) in $param.
Provide a simple fix by adding square brackets in the regex, responsible
for capturing $param.
A quick evaluation, by running 'kernel-doc -none' on entire kernel-tree,
reveals that no additional warning or error has been added or removed by
the fix.

Most of architectures generate syscall headers at the compile time
in a similar way.
The syscall table has the same format for all architectures. Each line
has up to 5 fields; syscall number, ABI, syscall name, native entry
point, and compat entry point. The syscall table is processed by
syscalltbl.sh script into header files.
Despite the same pattern, scripts are maintained per architecture,
which results in code duplication and bad maintainability.
As of v5.11-rc1, 12 architectures duplicate similar shell scripts:
$ find arch -name syscalltbl.sh | sort
arch/alpha/kernel/syscalls/syscalltbl.sh
arch/arm/tools/syscalltbl.sh

If directories are passed to gen_compile_commands.py, os.walk() traverses
all the subdirectories to search for .cmd files, but we know some of them
are not worth traversing.
Use the 'topdown' parameter of os.walk to prune them.
Documentation about the 'topdown' option of os.walk:
When topdown is True, the caller can modify the dirnames list
in-place (perhaps using del or slice assignment), and walk() will
only recurse into the subdirectories whose names remain in dirnames;
this can be used to prune the search, impose a specific order of
visiting, or even to inform walk() about directories the caller
creates or renames before it resumes walk() again. Modifying
dirnames when topdown is False has no effect on the behavior of
the walk, because in bottom-up mode the directories in dirnames
are generated before dirpath itself is generated.
This commit prunes four directories, .git, Documentation, include, and
tools.
The first three do not contain any C files, so skipping them makes this
script work slightly faster. My main motivation is the last one, tools/
directory.
Commit 6ca4c6d259 ("gen_compile_commands: do not support .cmd files
under tools/ directory") stopped supporting the tools/ directory.
The current code no longer picks up .cmd files from the tools/
directory.
If you run:
./scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py --log_level=INFO
then, you will see several "File ... not found" log messages.
This is expected, and I do not want to support the tools/ directory.
However, without an explicit comment "do not support tools/", somebody
might try to get it back. Clarify this.

DWARF v5 is the latest standard of the DWARF debug info format. GCC 11
will change the implicit default DWARF version, if left unspecified, to
DWARF v5.
Allow users of Clang and older versions of GCC that have not changed the
implicit default DWARF version to DWARF v5 to opt in. This can help
testing consumers of DWARF debug info in preparation of v5 becoming more
widespread, as well as result in significant binary size savings of the
pre-stripped vmlinux image.
DWARF5 wins significantly in terms of size when mixed with compression
(CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED).
363M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5.compressed
434M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4.compressed
439M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2.compressed
457M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5
536M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4
548M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2
515M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5.compressed
599M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4.compressed
624M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2.compressed
630M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5
765M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4
809M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2
Though the quality of debug info is harder to quantify; size is not a
proxy for quality.
Jakub notes:
One thing is GCC DWARF-5 support, that is whether the compiler will
support -gdwarf-5 flag, and that support should be there from GCC 7
onwards.
All [GCC] 5.1 - 6.x did was start accepting -gdwarf-5 as experimental
option that enabled some small DWARF subset (initially only a few
DW_LANG_* codes newly added to DWARF5 drafts). Only GCC 7 (released
after DWARF 5 has been finalized) started emitting DWARF5 section
headers and got most of the DWARF5 changes in...
Another separate thing is whether the assembler does support
the -gdwarf-5 option (i.e. if you can compile assembler files
with -Wa,-gdwarf-5) ... That option is about whether the assembler
will emit DWARF5 or DWARF2 .debug_line. It is fine to compile C sources
with -gdwarf-5 and use DWARF2 .debug_line for assembler files if as
doesn't support it.
Version check GCC so that we don't need to worry about the difference in
command line args between GNU readelf and llvm-readelf/llvm-dwarfdump to
validate the DWARF Version in the assembler feature detection script.
Most issues with clang produced assembler were fixed in binutils 2.35.1,
but 2.35.2 fixed issues related to requiring the flag -Wa,-gdwarf-5
explicitly. The added shell script test checks for the latter, and is
only required when using clang without its integrated assembler, though
we use for clang regardless as we do not yet have a way to query the
assembler from Kconfig.
Disabled for now if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is set; pahole doesn't yet
recognize the new additions to the DWARF debug info.
This only modifies the DWARF version emitted by the compiler, not the
assembler.
The DWARF version of a binary can be validated with:
$ llvm-dwarfdump <object file> | head -n 4 | grep version
or
$ readelf --debug-dump=info <object file> 2>/dev/null | grep Version
Parts of the tree don't reuse DEBUG_CFLAGS as they should; such cleanup
is left as a follow up.

Paul Gortmaker reported a regression in the GCC version check. [1]
If you use GCC 4.8, the build breaks before showing the error message
"error Sorry, your version of GCC is too old - please use 4.9 or newer."
I do not want to apply his fix-up since it implies we would not be able
to remove any cc-option test. Anyway, I admit checking the GCC version
in <linux/compiler-gcc.h> is too late.
Almost at the same time, Linus also suggested to move the compiler
version error to Kconfig time. [2]
I unified the two similar scripts, gcc-version.sh and clang-version.sh
into cc-version.sh. The old scripts invoked the compiler multiple times
(3 times for gcc-version.sh, 4 times for clang-version.sh). I refactored
the code so the new one invokes the compiler just once, and also tried
my best to use shell-builtin commands where possible.
The new script runs faster.
$ time ./scripts/clang-version.sh clang

Commit ccbef1674a ("Kbuild, lto: add ld-version and ld-ifversion
macros") introduced scripts/ld-version.sh for GCC LTO.
At that time, this script handled 5 version fields because GCC LTO
needed the downstream binutils. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)
The code snippet from the submitted patch was as follows:
# We need HJ Lu's Linux binutils because mainline binutils does not
# support mixing assembler and LTO code in the same ld -r object.
# XXX check if the gcc plugin ld is the expected one too
# XXX some Fedora binutils should also support it. How to check for that?
ifeq ($(call ld-ifversion,-ge,22710001,y),y)
...
However, GCC LTO was not merged into the mainline after all.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)
So, the 4th and 5th fields were never used, and finally removed by
commit 0d61ed17dd ("ld-version: Drop the 4th and 5th version
components").
Since then, the last 4-digits returned by this script is always zeros.
Remove the meaningless last 4-digits. This makes the version format
consistent with GCC_VERSION, CLANG_VERSION, LLD_VERSION.

Stephen Rothwell reported a build error on ppc64 when
CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled.
Jessica Yu pointed out the cause of the error with the reference to the
ppc64 ELF ABI:
"Symbol names with a dot (.) prefix are reserved for holding entry
point addresses. The value of a symbol named ".FN", if it exists,
is the entry point of the function "FN".
As it turned out, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS has never worked for ppc64,
but this issue has been unnoticed until recently because this option
depends on !UNUSED_SYMBOLS hence is disabled by all{mod,yes}config.
(Then, it was uncovered by another patch removing UNUSED_SYMBOLS.)
Removing the dot prefix in scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh fixes the issue.
Please note it must be done before 'sort -u' because modules have
both ._mcount and _mcount undefined when CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y.

ARM randconfig builds with lld sometimes show a build failure
from kallsyms:
Inconsistent kallsyms data
Try make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 as a workaround
The problem is the veneers/thunks getting added by the linker extend
the symbol table, which in turn leads to more veneers being needed,
so it may take a few extra iterations to converge.
This bug has been fixed multiple times before, but comes back every time
a new symbol name is used. lld uses a different set of identifiers from
ld.bfd, so the additional ones need to be added as well.
I looked through the sources and found that arm64 and mips define similar
prefixes, so I'm adding those as well, aside from the ones I observed. I'm
not sure about powerpc64, which seems to already be handled through a
section match, but if it comes back, the "__long_branch_" and "__plt_"
prefixes would have to get added as well.

Python retired in 2020, and some distributions do not provide the

As in commit 51839e29cb ("scripts: switch explicitly to Python 3"),
we need to use more specific 'python3' to invoke scripts even if they
are written in a way compatible with both Python 2 and 3.
This commit removes the variable 'PYTHON', and switches the existing
users to 'PYTHON3'.
BTW, PEP 394 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/) is a helpful

Kernel-doc currently expects that the kernel-doc markup to come
just before the function/enum/struct/union/typedef prototype.
Yet, if it find things like:
/**
* refcount_add - add a value to a refcount
* @i: the value to add to the refcount
* @r: the refcount
*/
static inline void __refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r, int *oldp);
static inline void refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r);
Kernel-doc will do the wrong thing:
foobar.h:6: warning: Function parameter or member 'oldp' not described in '__refcount_add'
.. c:function:: void __refcount_add (int i, refcount_t *r, int *oldp)
add a value to a refcount
**Parameters**
``int i``
the value to add to the refcount
``refcount_t *r``
the refcount
``int *oldp``
*undescribed*
Basically, it will document "__refcount_add" with the kernel-doc
markup for refcount_add.
If both functions have the same arguments, this won't even
produce any warning!
Add a logic to check if the kernel-doc identifier matches the actual
name of the C function or data structure that will be documented.

With LTO, the compiler doesn't necessarily obey the link order for
initcalls, and initcall variables need globally unique names to avoid
collisions at link time.
This change exports __KBUILD_MODNAME and adds the initcall_id() macro,
which uses it together with __COUNTER__ and __LINE__ to help ensure
these variables have unique names, and moves each variable to its own
section when LTO is enabled, so the correct order can be specified using
a linker script.
The generate_initcall_ordering.pl script uses nm to find initcalls from
the object files passed to the linker, and generates a linker script
that specifies the same order for initcalls that we would have without
LTO. With LTO enabled, the script is called in link-vmlinux.sh through
jobserver-exec to limit the number of jobs spawned.

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.

Device Feature List (DFL) is a linked list of feature headers within the
device MMIO space. It is used by FPGA to enumerate multiple sub features
within it. Each feature can be uniquely identified by DFL type and
feature id, which can be read out from feature headers.
A dfl bus helps DFL framework modularize DFL device drivers for
different sub features. The dfl bus matches its devices and drivers by
DFL type and feature id.
This patch adds dfl bus support to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() by adding info
about struct dfl_device_id in devicetable-offsets.c and add a dfl entry
point in file2alias.c.

The Surface Aggregator EC provides varying functionality, depending on
the Surface device. To manage this functionality, we use dedicated
client devices for each subsystem or virtual device of the EC. While
some of these clients are described as standard devices in ACPI and the
corresponding client drivers can be implemented as platform drivers in
the kernel (making use of the controller API already present), many
devices, especially on newer Surface models, cannot be found there.
To simplify management of these devices, we introduce a new bus and
client device type for the Surface Aggregator subsystem. The new device
type takes care of managing the controller reference, essentially
guaranteeing its validity for as long as the client device exists, thus
alleviating the need to manually establish device links for that purpose
in the client driver (as has to be done with the platform devices).

Changes the final fallback path in the ncurses locator for mconf
to support host compilers with a non-default sysroot.
This is similar to the hardcoded search for ncurses under
'/usr/include', but can support compilers that keep their default
header and library directories elsewhere.
For nconfig, do nothing because the only vendor compiler I'm aware
of with this layout (Apple Clang) ships an ncurses version that's too
old for nconfig anyway.

Work around it for now by just adding /sbin to the end of PATH in the

The command "make coccicheck C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck" results in the
error:
./scripts/coccicheck: line 65: -1: shift count out of range
This happens because every time the C variable is specified,
the shell arguments need to be "shifted" in order to take only
the last argument, which is the C file to test. These shell arguments
mostly comprise flags that have been set in the Makefile. However,
when coccicheck is specified in the make command as a rule, the
number of shell arguments is zero, thus passing the invalid value -1
to the shift command, resulting in an error.
Modify coccicheck to print correct usage of make coccicheck so as to
avoid the error.

The C11 _Static_assert() keyword may be used at module scope, and we
need to teach genksyms about it to not abort with an error. We currently
have a growing number of static_assert() (but also direct usage of
_Static_assert()) users at module scope:
git grep -E '^_Static_assert\(|^static_assert\(' | grep -v '^tools' | wc -l
135
More recently, when enabling CONFIG_MODVERSIONS with CONFIG_KCSAN, we
observe a number of warnings:
WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "<..all kcsan symbols..>" [vmlinux] [...]
When running a preprocessed source through 'genksyms -w' a number of
syntax errors point at usage of static_assert()s. In the case of
kernel/kcsan/encoding.h, new static_assert()s had been introduced which
used expressions that appear to cause genksyms to not even be able to
recover from the syntax error gracefully (as it appears was the case
previously).
Therefore, make genksyms ignore all _Static_assert() and the contained
expression. With the fix, usage of _Static_assert() no longer cause
"syntax error" all over the kernel, and the above modpost warnings for
KCSAN are gone, too.

Using EXPORT_SYMBOL*() on static functions is fundamentally wrong.
Modpost currently reports that as a warning, but clearly this is not a
pattern we should allow, and all in-tree occurences should have been
fixed by now. So, promote the warn() message to error() to make sure
this never happens again.

Change fatal() to error() to continue running to report more possible

There is no difference in the fact that modpost will fail anyway.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
We have 3 log functions. fatal() is special because it lets modpost bail
out immediately. The difference between warn() and error() is the only
prefix parts ("WARNING:" vs "ERROR:").
In my understanding, the expected handling of error() is to propagate
the return code of the function to the exit code of modpost, as
check_exports() etc. already does. This is a good manner in general
because we should display as many error messages as possible in a
single run of modpost.
What is annoying about fatal() is that it kills modpost at the first
error. People would need to run Kbuild again and again until they fix
all errors.
But, unfortunately, people tend to do:
"This case should not be allowed. Let's replace warn() with fatal()."
One of the reasons is probably it is tedious to manually hoist the error
code to the main() function.
This commit refactors error() so any single call for it automatically
makes modpost return the error code.
I also added comments in modpost.h for warn(), error(), and fatal().
Please use fatal() only when you have a strong reason to do so.
For example:
- Memory shortage (i.e. malloc() etc. has failed)
- The ELF file is broken, and there is no point to continue parsing
- Something really odd has happened
For general coding errors, please use error().

The log function names, warn(), merror(), fatal() are inconsistent.
Commit 2a11665945 ("kbuild: distinguish between errors and warnings
in modpost") intentionally chose merror() to avoid the conflict with
the library function error(). See man page of error(3).
But, we are already causing the conflict with warn() because it is also
a library function. See man page of warn(3). err() would be a problem
for the same reason.
The common technique to work around name conflicts is to use macros.
For example:
/* in a header */
#define error(fmt, ...) __error(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define warn(fmt, ...) __warn(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
/* function definition */
void __error(const char *fmt, ...)
{
<our implementation>
}
void __warn(const char *fmt, ...)
{
<our implementation>
}
In this way, we can implement our own warn() and error(), still we can
include <error.h> and <err.h> with no problem.
And, commit 93c95e526a ("modpost: rework and consolidate logging
interface") already did that.
Since the log functions are all macros, we can use error() without
causing "conflicting types" errors.

sanitizer causing problems under GCC. In the process, the Kconfig and
Makefile are refactored to do all the cc-option calls in the Kconfig.
Additionally start to detangle -Wno-maybe-uninitialized, disable
UBSAN_TRAP under COMPILE_TEST for wider build coverage, and expand the
libusan tests.
This patch (of 7):
In commit 78a5255ffb ("Stop the ad-hoc games with
-Wno-maybe-initialized") -Wmaybe-uninitialized was disabled globally, so
keeping the disabling logic here too doesn't make sense.

A false positive is "doesn't". Occurrence of the word causes checkpatch

Modify the regex pattern to be more in line with the codespell default

"The "h" and "hh" things should never be used. The only reason for them
being used if you have an "int", but you want to print it out as a
"char" (and honestly, that is a really bad reason, you'd be better off
just using a proper cast to make the code more obvious)."
Add a new check to emit a warning on finding an unneeded use of %h or
%hh modifier.
Also add a fix option to the check.

Currently checkpatch warns for BAD_SIGN_OFF on non-standard signature
styles.
A large number of these warnings occur because of typo mistakes in
signature tags. An evaluation over v4.13..v5.8 showed that out of 539
warnings due to non-standard signatures, 87 are due to typo mistakes.
Following are the standard signature tags which are often incorrectly
used, along with their individual counts of incorrect use (over
v4.13..v5.8):

Provide a fix by calculating levenshtein distance for the signature tag
with all the standard signatures and suggest a fix with a signature, whose
edit distance is less than or equal to 2 with the misspelled signature.
Out of the 86 mispelled signatures fixed with this approach, 85 were found
to be good corrections and 1 was bad correction.

Currently checkpatch warns us for long lines in commits even for signature
tag lines.
Generally these lines exceed the 75-character limit because of:
1) long names and long email address
2) some comments on scoped review and acknowledgement, i.e., for a
dedicated pointer on what was reported by the identity in
'Reported-by'
3) some additional comments on CC: stable@vger.org tags
Exclude signature tag lines from this class of warning.
There were 1896 COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE warnings in v5.6..v5.8 before this
patch application and 1879 afterwards.
A quick manual check found all the dropped warnings related to signature
tags.

checkpatch doesn't report warnings for many common mistakes in emails.
Some of which are trailing commas and incorrect use of email comments.
At the same time several false positives are reported due to incorrect
handling of mail comments. The most common of which is due to the
pattern:
<stable@vger.kernel.org> # X.X
Improve email parsing in checkpatch.
Some general email rules are defined:
- Multiple name comments should not be allowed.
- Comments inside address should not be allowed.
- In general comments should be enclosed within parentheses.
Relaxation is given to comments beginning with #.
- Stable addresses should not begin with a name.
- Comments in stable addresses should begin only
with a #.
Improvements to parsing:
- Detect and report unexpected content after email.
- Quoted names are excluded from comment parsing.
- Trailing dots, commas or quotes in email are removed during
formatting. Correspondingly a BAD_SIGN_OFF warning
is emitted.
- Improperly quoted email like '"name <address>"' are now
warned about.
In addition, added fixes for all the possible rules.

commit 33def8498f ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of

section name and now requires quotes around the named section.
Update checkpatch to not remove any quotes when suggesting conversion
of __attribute__((section("name"))) to __section("name")
Miscellanea:
o Add section to the hash with __section replacement
o Remove separate test for __attribute__((section
o Remove the limitation on converting attributes containing only
known, possible conversions. Any unknown attribute types are now
left as-is and known types are converted and moved before
__attribute__ and removed from within the __attribute__((list...)).

It is generally preferred that the macros from
include/linux/compiler_attributes.h are used, unless there is a reason not
to.
checkpatch currently checks __attribute__ for each of packed, aligned,
section, printf, scanf, and weak. Other declarations in
compiler_attributes.h are not handled.
Add a generic test to check the presence of such attributes. Some
attributes require more specific handling and are kept separate.
Also add fixes to the generic attributes check to substitute the correct
conversions.
New attributes which are now handled are:
__always_inline__
__assume_aligned__(a, ## __VA_ARGS__)
__cold__
__const__
__copy__(symbol)
__designated_init__
__externally_visible__
__gnu_inline__
__malloc__
__mode__(x)
__no_caller_saved_registers__
__noclone__
__noinline__
__nonstring__
__noreturn__
__pure__
__unused__
__used__
Declarations which contain multiple attributes like
__attribute__((__packed__, __cold__)) are also handled except when proper
conversions for one or more attributes of the list cannot be determined.

There are about 100,000 uses of 'static const <type>' but about 400 uses
of 'static <type> const' in the kernel where type is not a pointer.
The kernel almost always uses "static const" over "const static" as there
is a compiler warning for that declaration style.
But there is no compiler warning for "static <type> const".
So add a checkpatch warning for the atypical declaration uses of.
const static <type> <foo>
and
static <type> const <foo>
For example:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --emacs --quiet --nosummary -types=static_const arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c
arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c:75: WARNING: Move const after static - use 'static const u8'

Presence of hexadecimal address or symbol results in false warning
message by checkpatch.pl.
For example, running checkpatch on commit b8ad540dd4 ("mptcp: fix
memory leak in mptcp_subflow_create_socket()") results in warning:
WARNING:REPEATED_WORD: Possible repeated word: 'ff'
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 2f 30 0a 81 88 ff ff ........./0.....
Similarly, the presence of list command output in commit results in
an unnecessary warning.
For example, running checkpatch on commit 899e5ffbf2 ("perf record:
Introduce --switch-output-event") gives:
WARNING:REPEATED_WORD: Possible repeated word: 'root'
dr-xr-x---. 12 root root 4096 Apr 27 17:46 ..
Here, it reports 'ff' and 'root' to be repeated, but it is in fact part
of some address or code, where it has to be repeated.
In these cases, the intent of the warning to find stylistic issues in
commit messages is not met and the warning is just completely wrong in
this case.
To avoid these warnings, add an additional regex check for the directory
permission pattern and avoid checking the line for this class of
warning. Similarly, to avoid hex pattern, check if the word consists of
hex symbols and skip this warning if it is not among the common english
words formed using hex letters.
A quick evaluation on v5.6..v5.8 showed that this fix reduces
REPEATED_WORD warnings by the frequency of 1890.
A quick manual check found all cases are related to hex output or list
command outputs in commit messages.
