This reverts commit e0b250b5, which broke build systems that need to install files to a certain path, but do not set INSTALL_MOD_PATH when invoking 'make install'. $ make INSTALL_PATH=/tmp/destdir install mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/lib/modules/5.8.0-rc1+/’: Permission denied Makefile:1342: recipe for target '_builtin_inst_' failed make: *** [_builtin_inst_] Error 1 While modules.builtin is useful also for CONFIG_MODULES=n, this change in the behavior is quite unexpected. Maybe "make modules_install" can install modules.builtin irrespective of CONFIG_MODULES as Jonas originally suggested. Anyway, that commit should be reverted ASAP.

Commit 10e68b02 ("Makefile: support compressed debug info") added support for compressed debug sections. Support is detected by checking - does the compiler support -gz=zlib - does the assembler support --compressed-debug-sections=zlib - does the linker support --compressed-debug-sections=zlib However, the gcc driver's support for this option is somewhat convoluted. The driver's builtin specs are set based on the version of binutils that it was configured with. It reports an error if the configure-time linker/assembler (i.e., not necessarily the actual assembler that will be run) do not support the option, but only if the assembler (or linker) is actually invoked when -gz=zlib is passed. The cc-option check in scripts/Kconfig.include does not invoke the assembler, so the gcc driver reports success even if it does not support the option being passed to the assembler. Because the as-option check passes the option directly to the assembler via -Wa,--compressed-debug-sections=zlib, the gcc driver does not see this option and will never report an error. Combined with an installed version of binutils that is more recent than the one the compiler was built with, it is possible for all three tests to succeed, yet an actual compilation with -gz=zlib to fail. Moreover, it is unnecessary to explicitly pass --compressed-debug-sections=zlib to the assembler via -Wa, since the driver will do that automatically when it supports -gz=zlib. Convert the as-option to just -gz=zlib, simplifying it as well as performing a better test of the gcc driver's capabilities.

Redefine GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP variables as KGZIP, KBZIP2, KLZOP resp. GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP env variables are reserved by the tools. The original attempt to redefine them internally doesn't work in makefiles/scripts intercall scenarios, e.g., "make GZIP=gzip bindeb-pkg" and results in broken builds. There can be other broken build commands because of this, so the universal solution is to use non-reserved env variables for the compression tools.

Allow user to use alternative implementations of compression tools, such as pigz, pbzip2, pxz. For example, multi-threaded tools to speed up the build: $ make GZIP=pigz BZIP2=pbzip2 Variables _GZIP, _BZIP2, _LZOP are used internally because original env vars are reserved by the tools. The use of GZIP in gzip tool is obsolete since 2015. However, alternative implementations (e.g., pigz) still rely on it. BZIP2, BZIP, LZOP vars are not obsolescent. The credit goes to @grsecurity.

Many applications check for available kernel features via: - /proc/modules (loaded modules, present if CONFIG_MODULES=y) - $(MODLIB)/modules.builtin (builtin modules) They fail to detect features if the kernel was built with CONFIG_MODULES=n and modules.builtin isn't installed. Therefore, add the target "_builtin_inst_" and make "install" and "modules_install" depend on it.

If modpost fails to load a symbol dump file, it cannot check unresolved symbols, hence module dependency will not be added. Nor CRCs can be added. Currently, external module builds check only $(objtree)/Module.symvers, but it should check files specified by KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS as well. Move the warning message from the top Makefile to scripts/Makefile.modpost and print the warning if any dump file is missing. Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

The full build runs modpost twice, first for vmlinux.o and second for modules. The first pass dumps all the vmlinux symbols into Module.symvers, but the second pass parses vmlinux again instead of reusing the dump file, presumably because it needs to avoid accumulating stale symbols. Loading symbol info from a dump file is faster than parsing an ELF object. Besides, modpost deals with various issues to parse vmlinux in the second pass. A solution is to make the first pass dumps symbols into a separate file, vmlinux.symvers. The second pass reads it, and parses module .o files. The merged symbol information is dumped into Module.symvers in the same way as before. This makes further modpost cleanups possible. Also, it fixes the problem of 'make vmlinux', which previously overwrote Module.symvers, throwing away module symbols. I slightly touched scripts/link-vmlinux.sh so that vmlinux is re-linked when you cross this commit. Otherwise, vmlinux.symvers would not be generated.

As debug information gets larger and larger, it helps significantly save the size of vmlinux images to compress the information in the debug information sections. Note: this debug info is typically split off from the final compressed kernel image, which is why vmlinux is what's used in conjunction with GDB. Minimizing the debug info size should have no impact on boot times, or final compressed kernel image size. All of the debug sections will have a `C` flag set. $ readelf -S <object file> $ bloaty vmlinux.gcc75.compressed.dwarf4 -- \ vmlinux.gcc75.uncompressed.dwarf4 FILE SIZE VM SIZE -------------- -------------- +0.0% +18 [ = ] 0 [Unmapped] -73.3% -114Ki [ = ] 0 .debug_aranges -76.2% -2.01Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_frame -73.6% -2.89Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_str -80.7% -4.66Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_abbrev -82.9% -4.88Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_ranges -70.5% -9.04Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_line -79.3% -10.9Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_loc -39.5% -88.6Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_info -18.2% -123Mi [ = ] 0 TOTAL $ bloaty vmlinux.clang11.compressed.dwarf4 -- \ vmlinux.clang11.uncompressed.dwarf4 FILE SIZE VM SIZE -------------- -------------- +0.0% +23 [ = ] 0 [Unmapped] -65.6% -871 [ = ] 0 .debug_aranges -77.4% -1.84Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_frame -82.9% -2.33Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_abbrev -73.1% -2.43Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_str -84.8% -3.07Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_ranges -65.9% -8.62Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_line -86.2% -40.0Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_loc -42.0% -64.1Mi [ = ] 0 .debug_info -22.1% -122Mi [ = ] 0 TOTAL For x86_64 defconfig + LLVM=1 (before): Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 3:22.03 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 43856 For x86_64 defconfig + LLVM=1 (after): Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 3:32.52 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 1566776 Thanks to: Nick Clifton helped us to provide the minimal binutils version.

$(firstword ...) in scripts/Makefile.modpost was added by commit 3f3fd3c0 ("[PATCH] kbuild: allow multi-word $M in Makefile.modpost") to build multiple external module directories. It was a solution to resolve symbol dependencies when an external module depends on another external module. Commit 0d96fb20 ("kbuild: Add new Kbuild variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS") introduced another solution by passing symbol info via KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, then broke the multi-word M= support. include $(if $(wildcard $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Kbuild), \ $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Kbuild, $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Makefile) ... does not work if KBUILD_EXTMOD contains multiple words. This feature has been broken for more than a decade. Remove the bitrotten code, and stop parsing if M or KBUILD_EXTMOD contains multiple words. As Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst explains, if your module depends on another one, there are two solutions: - add a common top-level Kbuild file - use KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

Kbuild supports the infrastructure to build host programs, but there was no support to build userspace programs for the target architecture (i.e. the same architecture as the kernel). Sam Ravnborg worked on this in 2014 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/13/154), but it was not merged. One problem at that time was, there was no good way to know whether $(CC) can link standalone programs. In fact, pre-built kernel.org toolchains [1] are often used for building the kernel, but they do not provide libc. Now, we can handle this cleanly because the compiler capability is evaluated at the Kconfig time. If $(CC) cannot link standalone programs, the relevant options are hidden by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK'. The implementation just mimics scripts/Makefile.host The userspace programs are compiled with the same flags as the host programs. In addition, it uses -m32 or -m64 if it is found in $(KBUILD_CFLAGS). This new syntax has two usecases. - Sample programs Several userspace programs under samples/ include UAPI headers installed in usr/include. Most of them were previously built for the host architecture just to use the 'hostprogs' syntax. However, 'make headers' always works for the target architecture. This caused the arch mismatch in cross-compiling. To fix this distortion, sample code should be built for the target architecture. - Bpfilter net/bpfilter/Makefile compiles bpfilter_umh as the user mode helper, and embeds it into the kernel. Currently, it overrides HOSTCC with CC to use the 'hostprogs' syntax. This hack should go away.

This change adds generic support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack, which uses a shadow stack to protect return addresses from being overwritten by an attacker. Details are available here: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ShadowCallStack.html Note that security guarantees in the kernel differ from the ones documented for user space. The kernel must store addresses of shadow stacks in memory, which means an attacker capable reading and writing arbitrary memory may be able to locate them and hijack control flow by modifying the stacks.

gcc-10 now warns about passing aliasing pointers to functions that take restricted pointers. That's actually a great warning, and if we ever start using 'restrict' in the kernel, it might be quite useful. But right now we don't, and it turns out that the only thing this warns about is an idiom where we have declared a few functions to be "printf-like" (which seems to make gcc pick up the restricted pointer thing), and then we print to the same buffer that we also use as an input. And people do that as an odd concatenation pattern, with code like this: #define sysfs_show_gen_prop(buffer, fmt, ...) \ snprintf(buffer, PAGE_SIZE, "%s"fmt, buffer, __VA_ARGS__) where we have 'buffer' as both the destination of the final result, and as the initial argument. Yes, it's a bit questionable. And outside of the kernel, people do have standard declarations like int snprintf( char *restrict buffer, size_t bufsz, const char *restrict format, ... ); where that output buffer is marked as a restrict pointer that cannot alias with any other arguments. But in the context of the kernel, that 'use snprintf() to concatenate to the end result' does work, and the pattern shows up in multiple places. And we have not marked our own version of snprintf() as taking restrict pointers, so the warning is incorrect for now, and gcc picks it up on its own. If we do start using 'restrict' in the kernel (and it might be a good idea if people find places where it matters), we'll need to figure out how to avoid this issue for snprintf and friends. But in the meantime, this warning is not useful. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This is another fine warning, related to the 'zero-length-bounds' one, but hitting the same historical code in the kernel. Because C didn't historically support flexible array members, we have code that instead uses a one-sized array, the same way we have cases of zero-sized arrays. The one-sized arrays come from either not wanting to use the gcc zero-sized array extension, or from a slight convenience-feature, where particularly for strings, the size of the structure now includes the allocation for the final NUL character. So with a "char name[1];" at the end of a structure, you can do things like v = my_malloc(sizeof(struct vendor) + strlen(name)); and avoid the "+1" for the terminator. Yes, the modern way to do that is with a flexible array, and using 'offsetof()' instead of 'sizeof()', and adding the "+1" by hand. That also technically gets the size "more correct" in that it avoids any alignment (and thus padding) issues, but this is another long-term cleanup thing that will not happen for 5.7. So disable the warning for now, even though it's potentially quite useful. Having a slew of warnings that then hide more urgent new issues is not an improvement.

This is a fine warning, but we still have a number of zero-length arrays in the kernel that come from the traditional gcc extension. Yes, they are getting converted to flexible arrays, but in the meantime the gcc-10 warning about zero-length bounds is very verbose, and is hiding other issues. I missed one actual build failure because it was hidden among hundreds of lines of warning. Thankfully I caught it on the second go before pushing things out, but it convinced me that I really need to disable the new warnings for now. We'll hopefully be all done with our conversion to flexible arrays in the not too distant future, and we can then re-enable this warning.

We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.
