KBUILD_BUILTIN is set to 1 unless you are building only modules.
KBUILD_MODULES is set to 1 when you are building only modules
(a typical use case is "make modules").
It is more useful to set them to 'y' instead, so we can do
something like:
always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN) += vmlinux.lds
This works equivalently to:
extra-y += vmlinux.lds
This allows us to deprecate extra-y. extra-y and always-y are quite
similar, and we do not need both.

Since commit 7273ad2b08f8 ("kbuild: link lib-y objects to vmlinux
forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y"), all objects from lib-y have been
forcibly linked to vmlinux when CONFIG_MODULES=y.
To simplify future changes, this commit makes all objects from lib-y
be linked regardless of the CONFIG_MODULES setting.
Most use cases (CONFIG_MODULES=y) are not affected by this change.
The vmlinux size with ARCH=arm allnoconfig, where CONFIG_MODULES=n,
increases as follows:
text data bss dec hex filename
1368644 835104 206288 2410036 24c634 vmlinux.before
1379440 837064 206288 2422792 24f808 vmlinux.after
We no longer benefit from using static libraries, but the impact is
mitigated by supporting CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION.
For example, the size of vmlinux remains almost the same with ARCH=arm
tinyconfig, where CONFIG_MODULES=n and
CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=y.
text data bss dec hex filename
455316 93404 15472 564192 89be0 vmlinux.before

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old
kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that
predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is
a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more
maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx
build system.
This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the
small number of problems that turned up have been addressed,
seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script
remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a
command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it
around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17.
Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.

This was triggered by one of my mis-uses causing odd build warnings on
sparc in linux-next, but while figuring out why the "obviously correct"
use of cc-option caused such odd breakage, I found eight other cases of
the same thing in the tree.
The root cause is that 'cc-option' doesn't work for checking negative
warning options (ie things like '-Wno-stringop-overflow') because gcc
will silently accept options it doesn't recognize, and so 'cc-option'
ends up thinking they are perfectly fine.
And it all works, until you have a situation where _another_ warning is
emitted. At that point the compiler will go "Hmm, maybe the user
intended to disable this warning but used that wrong option that I
didn't recognize", and generate a warning for the unrecognized negative
option.
Which explains why we have several cases of this in the tree: the
'cc-option' test really doesn't work for this situation, but most of the
time it simply doesn't matter that ity doesn't work.
The reason my recently added case caused problems on sparc was pointed
out by Thomas Weißschuh: the sparc build had a previous explicit warning
that then triggered the new one.
I think the best fix for this would be to make 'cc-option' a bit smarter
about this sitation, possibly by adding an intentional warning to the
test case that then triggers the unrecognized option warning reliably.
But the short-term fix is to replace 'cc-option' with an existing helper
designed for this exact case: 'cc-disable-warning', which picks the
negative warning but uses the positive form for testing the compiler
support.

I had left the warning around but as a non-fatal error to get my gcc-15
builds going, but fixed up some of the most annoying warning cases so
that it wouldn't be *too* verbose.
Because I like the _concept_ of the warning, even if I detested the
implementation to shut it up.
It turns out the implementation to shut it up is even more broken than I
thought, and my "shut up most of the warnings" patch just caused fatal
errors on gcc-14 instead.
I had tested with clang, but when I upgrade my development environment,
I try to do it on all machines because I hate having different systems
to maintain, and hadn't realized that gcc-14 now had issues.
The ACPI case is literally why I wanted to have a *type* that doesn't
trigger the warning (see commit d5d45a7f2619: "gcc-15: make
'unterminated string initialization' just a warning"), instead of
marking individual places as "__nonstring".
But gcc-14 doesn't like that __nonstring location that shut gcc-15 up,
because it's on an array of char arrays, not on one single array:
drivers/acpi/tables.c:399:1: error: 'nonstring' attribute ignored on objects of type 'const char[][4]' [-Werror=attributes]
399 | static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst __nonstring = {
| ^~~~~~
and my attempts to nest it properly with a type had failed, because of
how gcc doesn't like marking the types as having attributes, only
symbols.
There may be some trick to it, but I was already annoyed by the bad
attribute design, now I'm just entirely fed up with it.
I wish gcc had a proper way to say "this type is a *byte* array, not a
string".
The obvious thing would be to distinguish between "char []" and an
explicitly signed "unsigned char []" (as opposed to an implicitly
unsigned char, which is typically an architecture-specific default, but
for the kernel is universal thanks to '-funsigned-char').
But any "we can typedef a 8-bit type to not become a string just because
it's an array" model would be fine.
But "__attribute__((nonstring))" is sadly not that sane model.

gcc-15 enabling -Wunterminated-string-initialization in -Wextra by
default was done with the best intentions, but the warning is still
quite broken.
What annoys me about the warning is that this is a very traditional AND
CORRECT way to initialize fixed byte arrays in C:
unsigned char hex[16] = "0123456789abcdef";
and we use this all over the kernel. And the warning is fine, but gcc
developers apparently never made a reasonable way to disable it. As is
(sadly) tradition with these things.
Yes, there's "__attribute__((nonstring))", and we have a macro to make
that absolutely disgusting syntax more palatable (ie the kernel syntax
for that monstrosity is just "__nonstring").
But that attribute is misdesigned. What you'd typically want to do is
tell the compiler that you are using a type that isn't a string but a
byte array, but that doesn't work at all:
warning: ‘nonstring’ attribute does not apply to types [-Wattributes]
and because of this fundamental mis-design, you then have to mark each
instance of that pattern.
This is particularly noticeable in our ACPI code, because ACPI has this
notion of a 4-byte "type name" that gets used all over, and is exactly
this kind of byte array.
This is a sad oversight, because the warning is useful, but really would
be so much better if gcc had also given a sane way to indicate that we
really just want a byte array type at a type level, not the broken "each
and every array definition" level.
So now instead of creating a nice "ACPI name" type using something like
typedef char acpi_name_t[4] __nonstring;
we have to do things like
char name[ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring;
in every place that uses this concept and then happens to have the
typical initializers.
This is annoying me mainly because I think the warning _is_ a good
warning, which is why I'm not just turning it off in disgust. But it is
hampered by this bad implementation detail.
[ And obviously I'm doing this now because system upgrades for me are
something that happen in the middle of the release cycle: don't do it
before or during travel, or just before or during the busy merge
window period. ]

Starting with Rust 1.86.0, Clippy's `needless_continue` lint complains
about the last statement of a loop [1], including cases like:
while ... {
match ... {
... if ... => {
...
return ...;
}
_ => continue,
}
}
as well as nested `match`es in a loop.
One solution is changing `continue` for `()` [2], but arguably using
`continue` shows the intent better when it is alone in an arm like that.
Moreover, I am not sure we want to force people to try to find other
ways to write the code either, in cases when that applies.
In addition, the help text does not really apply in the new cases the
lint has introduced, e.g. here one cannot simply "drop" the expression:
warning: this `continue` expression is redundant
--> rust/macros/helpers.rs:85:18
|
85 | _ => continue,
| ^^^^^^^^
|
= help: consider dropping the `continue` expression
= help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#needless_continue
= note: requested on the command line with `-W clippy::needless-continue`
The examples in the documentation do not show a case like this, either,
so the second "help" line does not help.
In addition, locally disabling the lint is not possible with `expect`,
since the behavior differs across versions. Using `allow` would be
possible, but, even then, an extra line just for this is a bit too much,
especially if there are other ways to satisfy the lint.
Finally, the lint is still in the "pedantic" category and disabled by
default by Clippy.
Thus disable the lint, at least for the time being.
Feedback was submitted to upstream Clippy, in case this can be improved
or perhaps the lint split into several [3].

A recent optimization change in LLVM [1] aims to transform certain loop
idioms into calls to strlen() or wcslen(). This change transforms the
first while loop in UniStrcat() into a call to wcslen(), breaking the
build when UniStrcat() gets inlined into alloc_path_with_tree_prefix():
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: wcslen
>>> referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54)
>>> vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix)
>>> referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54)
>>> vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix)
Disable this optimization with '-fno-builtin-wcslen', which prevents the
compiler from assuming that wcslen() is available in the kernel's C
library.
[ More to the point - it's not that we couldn't implement wcslen(), it's
that this isn't an optimization at all in the context of the kernel.
Replacing a simple inlined loop with a function call to the same loop
is just stupid and pointless if you don't have long strings and fancy
libraries with vectorization support etc.
For the regular 'strlen()' cases, we want the compiler to do this in
order to handle the trivial case of constant strings. And we do have
optimized versions of 'strlen()' on some architectures. But for
wcslen? Just no. - Linus ]

-fmacro-prefix-map only affects __FILE__ and __BASE_FILE__.
Other references, for example in debug information, are not affected.
This makes handling of file references in the compiler outputs harder to
use and creates problems for reproducible builds.
Switch to -ffile-prefix map which affects all references.
Also drop the documentation section advising manual specification of
-fdebug-prefix-map for reproducible builds, as it is not necessary
anymore.

The imperative paradigm used to build vmlinux, extract some info from it
or perform some checks on it, and subsequently modify it again goes
against the declarative paradigm that is usually employed for defining
make rules.
In particular, the Makefile.postlink files that consume their input via
an output rule result in some dodgy logic in the decompressor makefiles
for RISC-V and x86, given that the vmlinux.relocs input file needed to
generate the arch-specific relocation tables may not exist or be out of
date, but cannot be constructed using the ordinary Make dependency based
rules, because the info needs to be extracted while vmlinux is in its
ephemeral, non-stripped form.
So instead, for architectures that require the static relocations that
are emitted into vmlinux when passing --emit-relocs to the linker, and
are subsequently stripped out again, introduce an intermediate vmlinux
target called vmlinux.unstripped, and organize the reset of the build
logic accordingly:
- vmlinux.unstripped is created only once, and not updated again
- build rules under arch/*/boot can depend on vmlinux.unstripped without
running the risk of the data disappearing or being out of date
- the final vmlinux generated by the build is not bloated with static
relocations that are never needed again after the build completes.

Some architectures build vmlinux with static relocations preserved, but
strip them again from the final vmlinux image. Arch specific tools
consume these static relocations in order to construct relocation tables
for KASLR.
The fact that vmlinux is created, consumed and subsequently updated goes
against the typical, declarative paradigm used by Make, which is based
on rules and dependencies. So as a first step towards cleaning this up,
introduce a Kconfig symbol to declare that the arch wants to consume the
static relocations emitted into vmlinux. This will be wired up further
in subsequent patches.

Remap source path prefixes in all output, including compiler
diagnostics, debug information, macro expansions, etc.
This removes a few absolute paths from the binary and also makes it
possible to use core::panic::Location properly.
Equivalent to the same configuration done for C sources in
commit 1d3730f0012f ("kbuild: support -fmacro-prefix-map for external
modules") and commit a73619a845d5 ("kbuild: use -fmacro-prefix-map to
make __FILE__ a relative path").

userprogs sometimes need access to UAPI headers.
This is currently not possible for Usermode Linux, as UM is only
a pseudo architecture built on top of a regular architecture and does
not have its own UAPI.
Instead use the UAPI headers from the underlying regular architecture.

The userprog infrastructure links objects files through $(CC).
Either explicitly by manually calling $(CC) on multiple object files or
implicitly by directly compiling a source file to an executable.
The documentation at Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst indicates that ld.lld
would be used for linking if LLVM=1 is specified.
However clang instead will use either a globally installed cross linker
from $PATH called ${target}-ld or fall back to the system linker, which
probably does not support crosslinking.
For the normal kernel build this is not an issue because the linker is
always executed directly, without the compiler being involved.
Explicitly pass --ld-path to clang so $(LD) is respected.
As clang 13.0.1 is required to build the kernel, this option is available.

While WAIT_FOR_ENDBR is specified to be a full speculation stop; it
has been shown that some implementations are 'leaky' to such an extend
that speculation can escape even the FineIBT preamble.
To deal with this, add additional hardening to the FineIBT preamble.
Notably, using a new LLVM feature:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/e223485c9b38a5579991b8cebb6a200153eee245
which encodes the number of arguments in the kCFI preamble's register.
Using this register<->arity mapping, have the FineIBT preamble CALL
into a stub clobbering the relevant argument registers in the
speculative case.
Scott sayeth thusly:
Microarchitectural attacks such as Branch History Injection (BHI) and
Intra-mode Branch Target Injection (IMBTI) [1] can cause an indirect
call to mispredict to an adversary-influenced target within the same
hardware domain (e.g., within the kernel). Instructions at the
mispredicted target may execute speculatively and potentially expose
kernel data (e.g., to a user-mode adversary) through a
microarchitectural covert channel such as CPU cache state. |
