If CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled and the kernel is built from
a pristine state, the vmlinux is linked twice.
Commit 3fdc7d3fe4 ("kbuild: link vmlinux only once for
CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS") explains why this happens, but it did not fix
the issue at all.
Now I realized I had applied a wrong patch.
In v1 patch [1], the autoksyms_recursive target correctly recurses to
"$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile autoksyms_recursive".
In v2 patch [2], I accidentally dropped the diff line, and it recurses to
"$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile vmlinux".
Restore the code I intended in v1.

In commit 8b202ee218 ("s390: disable -Warray-bounds") the s390 people
disabled the '-Warray-bounds' warning for gcc-12, because the new logic
in gcc would cause warnings for their use of the S390_lowcore macro,
which accesses absolute pointers.
It turns out gcc-12 has many other issues in this area, so this takes
that s390 warning disable logic, and turns it into a kernel build config
entry instead.
Part of the intent is that we can make this all much more targeted, and
use this conflig flag to disable it in only particular configurations
that cause problems, with the s390 case as an example:
select GCC12_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS
and we could do that for other configuration cases that cause issues.
Or we could possibly use the CONFIG_CC_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS thing in a more
targeted way, and disable the warning only for particular uses: again
the s390 case as an example:
KBUILD_CFLAGS_DECOMPRESSOR += $(if $(CONFIG_CC_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS),-Wno-array-bounds)
but this ends up just doing it globally in the top-level Makefile, since
the current issues are spread fairly widely all over:
KBUILD_CFLAGS-$(CONFIG_CC_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS) += -Wno-array-bounds
We'll try to limit this later, since the gcc-12 problems are rare enough
that *much* of the kernel can be built with it without disabling this
warning.

While the concept of checking for dangling pointers to local variables
at function exit is really interesting, the gcc-12 implementation is not
compatible with reality, and results in false positives.
For example, gcc sees us putting things on a local list head allocated
on the stack, which involves exactly those kinds of pointers to the
local stack entry:
In function ‘__list_add’,
inlined from ‘list_add_tail’ at include/linux/list.h:102:2,
inlined from ‘rebuild_snap_realms’ at fs/ceph/snap.c:434:2:
include/linux/list.h:74:19: warning: storing the address of local variable ‘realm_queue’ in ‘*&realm_27(D)->rebuild_item.prev’ [-Wdangling-pointer=]
74 | new->prev = prev;
| ~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~
But then gcc - understandably - doesn't really understand the big
picture how the doubly linked list works, so doesn't see how we then end
up emptying said list head in a loop and the pointer we added has been
removed.
Gcc also complains about us (intentionally) using this as a way to store
a kind of fake stack trace, eg
drivers/acpi/acpica/utdebug.c:40:38: warning: storing the address of local variable ‘current_sp’ in ‘acpi_gbl_entry_stack_pointer’ [-Wdangling-pointer=]
40 | acpi_gbl_entry_stack_pointer = ¤t_sp;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
which is entirely reasonable from a compiler standpoint, and we may want
to change those kinds of patterns, but not not.
So this is one of those "it would be lovely if the compiler were to
complain about us leaving dangling pointers to the stack", but not this
way.

- Comprehensive interface overhaul:
=================================
Objtool's interface has some issues:
- Several features are done unconditionally, without any way to turn
them off. Some of them might be surprising. This makes objtool
tricky to use, and prevents porting individual features to other
arches.
- The config dependencies are too coarse-grained. Objtool enablement is
tied to CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, but it has several other features
independent of that.
- The objtool subcmds ("check" and "orc") are clumsy: "check" is really
a subset of "orc", so it has all the same options. The subcmd model
has never really worked for objtool, as it only has a single purpose:
"do some combination of things on an object file".
- The '--lto' and '--vmlinux' options are nonsensical and have
surprising behavior.
Overhaul the interface:
- get rid of subcmds
- make all features individually selectable
- remove and/or clarify confusing/obsolete options
- update the documentation
- fix some bugs found along the way
- Fix x32 regression
- Fix Kbuild cleanup bugs
- Add scripts/objdump-func helper script to disassemble a single function from an object file.
- Rewrite scripts/faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on 'readelf',
moving it away from 'nm', which doesn't handle multiple sections well,
which can result in decoding failure.
- Rewrite & fix symbol handling - which had a number of bugs wrt. object files
that don't have global symbols - which is rare but possible. Also fix a
bunch of symbol handling bugs found along the way.

Many architectures have similar install.sh scripts.
The first half is really generic; it verifies that the kernel image
and System.map exist, then executes ~/bin/${INSTALLKERNEL} or
/sbin/${INSTALLKERNEL} if available.
The second half is kind of arch-specific; it copies the kernel image
and System.map to the destination, but the code is slightly different.
Factor out the generic part into scripts/install.sh.

When developing new code/feature, CONFIG_WERROR is most
often turned off, especially for people using make W=12 to
get more warnings.
In such case, turning on -Werror temporarily would require
switching on CONFIG_WERROR in the configuration, building,
then switching off CONFIG_WERROR.
For this use case, this patch introduces a new 'e' modifier
to W= as a short hand for KCFLAGS+=-Werror" so that -Werror
got added to the kernel (built-in) and modules' CFLAGS.

The dependency
$(obj)/%.mod: $(obj)/%$(mod-prelink-ext).o
... exists because *.mod files previously contained undefined symbols,
which are computed from *.o files when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y.
Now that the undefined symbols are put into separate *.usyms files,
there is no reason to make *.mod depend on *.o files.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
The *.mod files have two lines; the first line lists the member objects
of the module, and the second line, if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y, lists
the undefined symbols.
Currently, we generate *.mod after constructing composite modules,
otherwise, we cannot compute the second line. No prerequisite is
required to print the first line.
They are orthogonal. Splitting them into separate commands will ease
further cleanups.
This commit splits the list of undefined symbols out to *.usyms files.
Previously, the list of undefined symbols ended up with a very long
line, but now it has one symbol per line.
Use sed like we did before commit 7d32358be8 ("kbuild: avoid split
lines in .mod files").

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 6580c5c18f ("um: clang: Strip
out -mno-global-merge from USER_CFLAGS").
Since commit 61163efae0 ("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.

Recently, Jakob Koschel reported a bug in list_for_each_entry(), which
leaks the invalid pointer out of the loop [2]. In the discussion, we

Discussions for a better list iterator implementation are ongoing, but
this patch set must land first.

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:
| scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘match’:
| scripts/mod/modpost.c:837:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement]

$(or ...) is available since GNU Make 3.81, and useful to shorten the
code in some places.
Covert as follows:
$(if A,A,B) --> $(or A,B)
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 all known internal zero-length accesses fixed, it is possible to
enable -Wzero-length-bounds globally. Since this is included by default
in -Warray-bounds, we just need to stop disabling it.

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.
