This flag is specific to clang, where it is only used by the 32-bit and
64-bit ARM backends. In certain situations, the presence of this flag
will cause a warning, as shown by commit 6580c5c1 ("um: clang: Strip
out -mno-global-merge from USER_CFLAGS").

Since commit 61163efa ("kbuild: LLVMLinux: Add Kbuild support for
building kernel with Clang") that added this flag back in 2014, there
have been quite a few changes to the GlobalMerge pass in LLVM. Building
several different ARCH=arm and ARCH=arm64 configurations with LLVM 11
(minimum) and 15 (current main version) with this flag removed (i.e.,
with the default of '-mglobal-merge') reveals no modpost warnings, so it
is likely that the issue noted in the comment is no longer relevant due
to changes in LLVM or modpost, meaning this flag can be removed.

If any new warnings show up that are a result of the removal of this
flag, it can be added back under arch/arm{,64}/Makefile to avoid
warnings on other architectures.

The LLVM make variable allows a developer to quickly switch between the
GNU and LLVM tools. However, it does not handle versioned binaries, such
as the ones shipped by Debian, as LLVM=1 just defines the tool variables
with the unversioned binaries.

There was some discussion during the review of the patch that introduces
LLVM=1 around versioned binaries, ultimately coming to the conclusion
that developers can just add the folder that contains the unversioned
binaries to their PATH, as Debian's versioned suffixed binaries are
really just symlinks to the unversioned binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin:

$ realpath /usr/bin/clang-14
/usr/lib/llvm-14/bin/clang

$ PATH=/usr/lib/llvm-14/bin:$PATH make ... LLVM=1

However, that can be cumbersome to developers who are constantly testing
series with different toolchains and versions. It is simple enough to
support these versioned binaries directly in the Kbuild system by
allowing the developer to specify the version suffix with LLVM=, which
is shorter than the above suggestion:

$ make ... LLVM=-14

It does not change the meaning of LLVM=1 (which will continue to use
unversioned binaries) and it does not add too much additional complexity
to the existing $(LLVM) code, while allowing developers to quickly test
their series with different versions of the whole LLVM suite of tools.

Some developers may build LLVM from source but not add the binaries to
their PATH, as they may not want to use that toolchain systemwide.
Support those developers by allowing them to supply the directory that
the LLVM tools are available in, as it is no more complex to support
than the version suffix change above.

$ make ... LLVM=/path/to/llvm/

Update and reorder the documentation to reflect these new additions.
At the same time, notate that LLVM=0 is not the same as just omitting it
altogether, which has confused people in the past.

As we change the C language standard for the kernel from gnu89 to
gnu11, it makes sense to also update the version for user space
compilation.

Some users have older native compilers than what they use for
kernel builds, so I considered using gnu99 as the default version
for wider compatibility with gcc-4.6 and earlier.

However, testing with older compilers showed that we already require
HOSTCC version 5.1 as well because a lot of host tools include
linux/compiler.h that uses __has_attribute():

During a patch discussion, Linus brought up the option of changing
the C standard version from gnu89 to gnu99, which allows using variable
declaration inside of a for() loop. While the C99, C11 and later standards
introduce many other features, most of these are already available in
gnu89 as GNU extensions as well.

An earlier attempt to do this when gcc-5 started defaulting to
-std=gnu11 failed because at the time that caused warnings about
designated initializers with older compilers. Now that gcc-5.1 is
the minimum compiler version used for building kernels, that is no
longer a concern. Similarly, the behavior of 'inline' functions changes
between gnu89 using gnu_inline behavior and gnu11 using standard c99+
behavior, but this was taken care of by defining 'inline' to include
__attribute__((gnu_inline)) in order to allow building with clang a
while ago.

Nathan Chancellor reported a new -Wdeclaration-after-statement
warning that appears in a system header on arm, this still needs a
workaround.

The differences between gnu99, gnu11, gnu1x and gnu17 are fairly
minimal and mainly impact warnings at the -Wpedantic level that the
kernel never enables. Between these, gnu11 is the newest version
that is supported by all supported compiler versions, though it is
only the default on gcc-5, while all other supported versions of
gcc or clang default to gnu1x/gnu17.

The kernel is moving from using `-std=gnu89` to `-std=gnu11`, permitting
the use of additional C11 features such as for-loop initial declarations.

One contentious aspect of C99 is that it permits mixed declarations and
code, and for now at least, it seems preferable to enforce that
declarations must come first.

These warnings were already enabled in the kernel itself, but not
for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS or the compat VDSO on arch/arm64, which uses
a separate set of CFLAGS.

This patch fixes an existing violation in modpost.c, which is not
reported because of the missing flag in KBUILD_USERCFLAGS:

Covert as follows:

This patch also converts:

  $(if A, A, B) --> $(or A, B)

Strictly speaking, the latter is not an equivalent conversion because
GNU Make keeps spaces after commas; if A is not empty, $(if A, A, B)
expands to " A", while $(or A, B) expands to "A".

Anyway, preceding spaces are not significant in the code hunks I touched.

Allow additional arguments be passed to userprogs compilation.
Reproducible clang builds need to provide a sysroot and gcc path to
ensure the same toolchain is used across hosts. KCFLAGS is not currently
used for any user programs compilation, so add new USERCFLAGS and
USERLDFLAGS which serves similar purpose as HOSTCFLAGS/HOSTLDFLAGS.

Clang might detect GCC installation on hosts which have it installed
to a default location in /. With addition of these environment
variables, you can specify flags such as:

$ make USERCFLAGS=--sysroot=/path/to/sysroot

This can also be used to specify different sysroots such as musl or
bionic which may be installed on the host in paths that the compiler
may not search by default.

With the recent fixes for flexible arrays and expanded FORTIFY_SOURCE
coverage, it is now possible to enable -Warray-bounds. Since both GCC
and Clang include -Warray-bounds in -Wall, adjust the Makefile to just
stop disabling it.

Note that this option can be conservative in its warnings (which is
done at casting time rather than access time), but this is reasonable
since the cast variables may be accessed out of a scope where the true
size of the original object can't be evaluated. These handful of false
positives (which are arguably bad casts and can be easily avoided),
are worth dealing with because of the many places where this option
has helped identify missed bounds checks and even accesses done against
cases where a NULL pointer could be reached.

Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.

Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.

Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):

    CONFIG_X="foo bar"

Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.

There are some patterns:

  [1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
  [2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
  [3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
  [4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))

These are not only ugly, but also fragile.

[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
   CONFIG_X=" foo bar "

[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
   CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"

[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.

Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.

This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

    ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
    ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME
    ARC_TUNE_MCPU

GCC and Clang can use the "alloc_size" attribute to better inform the
results of __builtin_object_size() (for compile-time constant values).
Clang can additionally use alloc_size to inform the results of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size() (for run-time values).

Because GCC sees the frequent use of struct_size() as an allocator size
argument, and notices it can return SIZE_MAX (the overflow indication),
it complains about these call sites overflowing (since SIZE_MAX is
greater than the default -Walloc-size-larger-than=PTRDIFF_MAX).  This
isn't helpful since we already know a SIZE_MAX will be caught at
run-time (this was an intentional design).  To deal with this, we must
disable this check as it is both a false positive and redundant.  (Clang
does not have this warning option.)

Unfortunately, just checking the -Wno-alloc-size-larger-than is not
sufficient to make the __alloc_size attribute behave correctly under
older GCC versions.  The attribute itself must be disabled in those
situations too, as there appears to be no way to reliably silence the
SIZE_MAX constant expression cases for GCC versions less than 9.1:

Since anything marked with __alloc_size would also qualify for marking
with __malloc, just include __malloc along with it to avoid redundant
markings.  (Suggested by Linus Torvalds.)

Finally, make sure checkpatch.pl doesn't get confused about finding the
__alloc_size attribute on functions.  (Thanks to Joe Perches.)
