      kbuild: generate Module.symvers only when vmlinux exists · 69bc8d38
      Masahiro Yamada 提交于
      The external module build shows the following warning if Module.symvers
      is missing in the kernel tree.
      
        WARNING: Symbol version dump "Module.symvers" is missing.
                 Modules may not have dependencies or modversions.
      
      I think this is an important heads-up because the resulting modules may
      not work as expected. This happens when you did not build the entire
      kernel tree, for example, you might have prepared the minimal setups
      for external modules by 'make defconfig && make modules_preapre'.
      
      A problem is that 'make modules' creates Module.symvers even without
      vmlinux. In this case, that warning is suppressed since Module.symvers
      already exists in spite of its incomplete content.
      
      The incomplete (i.e. invalid) Module.symvers should not be created.
      
      This commit changes the second pass of modpost to dump symbols into
      modules-only.symvers. The final Module.symvers is created by
      concatenating vmlinux.symvers and modules-only.symvers if both exist.
      
      Module.symvers is supposed to collect symbols from both vmlinux and
      modules. It might be a bit confusing, and I am not quite sure if it
      is an official interface, but presumably it is difficult to rename it
      because some tools (e.g. kmod) parse it.

      kbuild: check the minimum assembler version in Kconfig · ba64beb1
      Masahiro Yamada 提交于
      Documentation/process/changes.rst defines the minimum assembler version
      (binutils version), but we have never checked it in the build time.
      
      Kbuild never invokes 'as' directly because all assembly files in the
      kernel tree are *.S, hence must be preprocessed. I do not expect
      raw assembly source files (*.s) would be added to the kernel tree.
      
      Therefore, we always use $(CC) as the assembler driver, and commit
      aa824e0c ("kbuild: remove AS variable") removed 'AS'. However,
      we are still interested in the version of the assembler acting behind.
      
      As usual, the --version option prints the version string.
      
        $ as --version | head -n 1
        GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
      
      But, we do not have $(AS). So, we can add the -Wa prefix so that
      $(CC) passes --version down to the backing assembler.
      
        $ gcc -Wa,--version | head -n 1
        gcc: fatal error: no input files
        compilation terminated.
      
      OK, we need to input something to satisfy gcc.
      
        $ gcc -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
        GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
      
      The combination of Clang and GNU assembler works in the same way:
      
        $ clang -no-integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
        GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
      
      Clang with the integrated assembler fails like this:
      
        $ clang -integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
        clang: error: unsupported argument '--version' to option 'Wa,'
      
      For the last case, checking the error message is fragile. If the
      proposal for -Wa,--version support [1] is accepted, this may not be
      even an error in the future.
      
      One easy way is to check if -integrated-as is present in the passed
      arguments. We did not pass -integrated-as to CLANG_FLAGS before, but
      we can make it explicit.
      
      Nathan pointed out -integrated-as is the default for all of the
      architectures/targets that the kernel cares about, but it goes
      along with "explicit is better than implicit" policy. [2]
      
      With all this in my mind, I implemented scripts/as-version.sh to
      check the assembler version in Kconfig time.
      
        $ scripts/as-version.sh gcc
        GNU 23501
        $ scripts/as-version.sh clang -no-integrated-as
        GNU 23501
        $ scripts/as-version.sh clang -integrated-as

      Makefile: Only specify '--prefix=' when building with clang + GNU as · eec08090
      Nathan Chancellor 提交于
      When building with LLVM_IAS=1, there is no point to specifying
      '--prefix=' because that flag is only used to find GNU cross tools,
      which will not be used indirectly when using the integrated assembler.
      All of the tools are invoked directly from PATH or a full path specified
      via the command line, which does not depend on the value of '--prefix='.
      
      Sharing commands to reproduce issues becomes a little bit easier without
      a '--prefix=' value because that '--prefix=' value is specific to a
      user's machine due to it being an absolute path.
      
      Some further notes from Fangrui Song:
      
        clang can spawn GNU as (if -f?no-integrated-as is specified) and GNU
        objcopy (-f?no-integrated-as and -gsplit-dwarf and -g[123]).
        objcopy is only used for GNU as assembled object files.
        With integrated assembler, the object file streamer creates .o and
        .dwo simultaneously.
        With GNU as, two objcopy commands are needed to extract .debug*.dwo to
        .dwo files && another command to remove .debug*.dwo sections.
      
      A small consequence of this change (to keep things simple) is that
      '--prefix=' will always be specified now, even with a native build, when
      it was not before. This should not be an issue due to the way that the
      Makefile searches for the prefix (based on elfedit's location). This
      ends up improving the experience for host builds because PATH is better
      respected and matches GCC's behavior more closely. See the below thread
      for more details:

      Makefile: Remove '--gcc-toolchain' flag · c91d4e47
      Nathan Chancellor 提交于
      This flag was originally added to allow clang to find the GNU cross
      tools in commit 785f11aa ("kbuild: Add better clang cross build
      support"). This flag was not enough to find the tools at times so
      '--prefix' was added to the list in commit ef8c4ed9 ("kbuild: allow
      to use GCC toolchain not in Clang search path") and improved upon in
      commit ca9b31f6 ("Makefile: Fix GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR prefix for Clang
      cross compilation"). Now that '--prefix' specifies a full path and
      prefix, '--gcc-toolchain' serves no purpose because the kernel builds
      with '-nostdinc' and '-nostdlib'.
      
      This has been verified with self compiled LLVM 10.0.1 and LLVM 13.0.0 as
      well as a distribution version of LLVM 11.1.0 without binutils in the
      LLVM toolchain locations.

      kbuild: apply fixdep logic to link-vmlinux.sh · 0b956e20
      Rasmus Villemoes 提交于
      The patch adding CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP revealed a small defect in the
      build system: link-vmlinux.sh takes decisions based on CONFIG_*
      options, but changing one of those does not always lead to vmlinux
      being linked again.
      
      For most of the CONFIG_* knobs referenced previously, this has
      probably been hidden by those knobs also affecting some object file,
      hence indirectly also vmlinux.
      
      But CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is only handled inside link-vmlinux.sh, and
      changing CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP=n to CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP=y does not cause
      the build system to re-link (and hence have vmlinux.map
      emitted). Since that map file is mostly a debugging aid, this is
      merely a nuisance which is easily worked around by just deleting
      vmlinux and building again.
      
      But one could imagine other (possibly future) CONFIG options that
      actually do affect the vmlinux binary but which are not captured
      through some object file dependency.
      
      To fix this, make link-vmlinux.sh emit a .vmlinux.d file in the same
      format as the dependency files generated by gcc, and apply the fixdep
      logic to that. I've tested that this correctly works with both in-tree
      and out-of-tree builds.

      kbuild: include Makefile.compiler only when compiler is needed · 805b2e1d
      Masahiro Yamada 提交于
      Since commit f2f02ebd ("kbuild: improve cc-option to clean up all

      tree emits a bunch of warnings:
      
        mkdir: cannot create directory '.tmp_12345': Permission denied
      
      No-build targets such as kernelversion, clean, help, etc. do not
      need to evaluate $(call cc-option,) or friends. Skip Makefile.compiler
      so $(call cc-option,) becomes no-op.
      
      This not only fixes the warnings, but also runs non-build targets much
      faster.
      
      Basically, all installation targets should also be non-build targets.
      Unfortunately, vdso_install requires the compiler because it builds
      vdso before installation. This is a problem that must be fixed by a
      separate patch.

      Kconfig: allow explicit opt in to DWARF v5 · 98cd6f52
      Nick Desaulniers 提交于
      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

      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.

      Kbuild: make DWARF version a choice · a66049e2
      Nick Desaulniers 提交于
      Adds a default CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT which allows
      the implicit default version of DWARF emitted by the toolchain to
      progress over time.
      
      Modifies CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 to be a member of a choice, making it
      mutually exclusive with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT. Users
      may want to select this if they are using a newer toolchain, but have
      consumers of the DWARF debug info that aren't yet ready for newer DWARF
      versions' debug info.
      
      Does so in a way that's forward compatible with existing
      configs, and makes adding future versions more straightforward. This
      patch does not change the current behavior or selection of DWARF
      version for users upgrading to kernels with this patch.
      
      GCC since ~4.8 has defaulted to DWARF v4 implicitly, and GCC 11 has
      bumped this to v5.
      
      Remove the Kconfig help text  about DWARF v4 being larger.  It's
      empirically false for the latest toolchains for x86_64 defconfig, has no
      point of reference (I suspect it was DWARF v2 but that's stil
      empirically false), and debug info size is not a qualatative measure.

      kbuild: stop removing stale <linux/version.h> file · 0dd77e95
      Masahiro Yamada 提交于
      Revert commit 223c24a7 ("kbuild: Automatically remove stale
      <linux/version.h> file").
      
      It was more than 6 years ago. I do not expect anybody to start
      git-bisect for such a big window.
