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.

It is allowed to add the same objects multiple times to obj-y / obj-m:
obj-y += foo.o foo.o foo.o
obj-m += bar.o bar.o bar.o
It is also allowed to add the same objects multiple times to a composite
module:
obj-m += foo.o
foo-y := foo1.o foo2.o foo2.o foo1.o
This flexibility is useful because the same object might be selected by
different CONFIG options, like this:
obj-m += foo.o
foo-y := foo1.o
foo-$(CONFIG_FOO_X) += foo2.o
foo-$(CONFIG_FOO_Y) += foo2.o
The duplicated objects are omitted at link time. It works naturally in
Makefiles because GNU Make removes duplication in $^ without changing
the order.
It is working well, almost...
A small flaw I notice is, *.mod contains duplication in such a case.
This is probably not a big deal. As far as I know, the only small
problem is scripts/mod/sumversion.c parses the same file multiple
times.
I am fixing this because I plan to reuse *.mod for other purposes,
where the duplication can be problematic.
The code change is quite simple. We already use awk to drop duplicated
lines in modules.order (see cmd_modules_order in the same file).
I copied the code, but changed RS to use spaces as record separators.
I also changed the file format to list one object per line.
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").

Precisely speaking, when you get the stem of the path, you should use
$(patsubst $(obj)/%,%,...) instead of $(notdir ...).
I do not see this usecase, but if you create a composite object in a
subdirectory, the Makefile should look like this:
obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += dir/foo.o
dir/foo-objs := dir/foo1.o dir/foo2.o
The member objects should be assigned to dir/foo-objs instead of
foo-objs.
This syntax is more consistent with commit 54b8ae66ae ("kbuild:

cmd_modversions_c implements two parts; run genksyms to calculate CRCs
of exported symbols, run $(LD) to update the object with the CRCs. The
latter is not executed for CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y since the object is not
ELF but LLVM bit code at this point.
The first part can be unified because we can always use $(NM) instead

There are two call sites for sym_update_namespace().
When the symbol has no namespace, s->namespace is set to NULL,
but the conversion from "" to NULL is done in two different places.
[1] read_symbols()
This gets the namespace from __kstrtabns_<symbol>. If the symbol has
no namespace, sym_get_data(info, sym) returns the empty string "".
namespace_from_kstrtabns() converts it to NULL before it is passed to
sym_update_namespace().
[2] read_dump()
This gets the namespace from the dump file, *.symvers. If the symbol
has no namespace, the 'namespace' is the empty string "", which is
directly passed into sym_update_namespace(). The conversion from
"" to NULL is done in sym_update_namespace().
namespace_from_kstrtabns() exists only for creating this inconsistency.
Remove namespace_from_kstrtabns() so that sym_update_namespace() is
consistently passed with "" instead of NULL.

With commit 1743694eb2 ("modpost: stop symbol preloading for
modversion CRC") applied, now export_from_sec() is useless.
handle_symbol() is called for every symbol in the ELF.
When 'symname' does not start with "__ksymtab", export_from_sec() is
called, and the returned value is stored in 'export'.
It is used in the last part of handle_symbol():
if (strstarts(symname, "__ksymtab_")) {
name = symname + strlen("__ksymtab_");
sym_add_exported(name, mod, export);
}
'export' is used only when 'symname' starts with "__ksymtab_".
So, the value returned by export_from_sec() is never used.
Remove useless export_from_sec(). This makes further cleanups possible.
I put the temporary code:
export = export_unknown;
Otherwise, I would get the compiler warning:
warning: 'export' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
This is apparently false positive because
if (strstarts(symname, "__ksymtab_")
... is a stronger condition than:
if (strstarts(symname, "__ksymtab")

Currently, fixdep checks the return value from (v)printf(), but it does
not ensure the complete write to the .cmd file.
printf() just writes data to the internal buffer, which usually succeeds.
(Of course, it may fail for another reason, for example when the file
descriptor is closed, but that is another story.)
When the buffer (4k?) is full, an actual write occurs, and printf() may
really fail. One of typical cases is "No space left on device" when the
disk is full.
The data remaining in the buffer will be pushed out to the file when
the program exits, but we never know if it is successful.
One straight-forward fix would be to add the following code at the end
of the program.
ret = fflush(stdout);
if (ret < 0) {
/* error handling */
}
However, it is tedious to check the return code in all the call sites
of printf(), fflush(), fclose(), and whatever can cause actual writes
to the end device. Doing that lets the program bail out at the first
failure but is usually not worth the effort.
Instead, let's check the error status from ferror(). This is 'sticky',
so you need to check it just once. You still need to call fflush().

Core
----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the
stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
called from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency

- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

treewide: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible-array members
Commit 0ee3e7b889 ("checkpatch: get default codespell dictionary path
from package location") introduced the ability to search for the
codespell dictionary rather than hardcoding its path.
codespell requires Python 3.6 or above, but on some systems, the python
executable is a Python 2.7 interpreter. In this case, searching for the
dictionary fails, subsequently making codespell fail:
No codespell typos will be found - file '/usr/share/codespell/dictionary.txt': No such file or directory
So, use python3 to remove ambiguity.
In addition, when searching for dictionary.txt, do not check if the
codespell executable exists since,
- checkpatch.pl only uses dictionary.txt, not the codespell
executable.
- codespell can be installed via a Python package manager, in which
case the codespell executable may not be present in a typical $PATH,
but a dictionary does exist.

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree:
- The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.
This was already gone from all major architectures, but now we can
finally remove it everywhere, which loses some particularly tricky
and error-prone code. There is a small merge conflict against a
parisc cleanup, the solution is to use their new version.
- The nds32 architecture ends its tenure in the Linux kernel.
The hardware is still used and the code is in reasonable shape, but
the mainline port is not actively maintained any more, as all
remaining users are thought to run vendor kernels that would never
be updated to a future release.
- A series from Masahiro Yamada cleans up some of the uapi header
files to pass the compile-time checks"

Objtool's --ibt option generates .ibt_endbr_seal which lists
superfluous ENDBR instructions. That is those instructions for which
the function is never indirectly called.
Overwrite these ENDBR instructions with a NOP4 such that these
function can never be indirect called, reducing the number of viable
ENDBR targets in the kernel.
