3b09efc modpost: change elf_info->size to size_t Align with the mmap / munmap APIs. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:39:20 UTC
4de7b62 modpost: remove is_vmlinux() helper Now that is_vmlinux() is called only in new_module(), we can inline the function call. modname is the basename with '.o' is stripped. No need to compare it with 'vmlinux.o'. vmlinux is always located at the current working directory. No need to strip the directory path.

a82f794 modpost: strip .o from modname before calling new_module() new_module() conditionally strips the .o because the modname has .o suffix when it is called from read_symbols(), but no .o when it is called from read_dump(). It is clearer to strip .o in read_symbols(). I also used flexible-array for mod->name. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:39:20 UTC

0b19d54 modpost: remove mod->skip struct member The meaning of 'skip' is obscure since it does not explain "what to skip". mod->skip is set when it is vmlinux or the module info came from a dump file. So, mod->skip is equivalent to (mod->is_vmlinux || mod->from_dump). For the check in write_namespace_deps_files(), mod->is_vmlinux is unneeded because the -d option is not passed in the first pass of modpost.

5a438af modpost: add mod->is_vmlinux struct member is_vmlinux() is called in several places to check whether the current module is vmlinux or not. It is faster and clearer to check mod->is_vmlinux flag. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:39:19 UTC
1be5fa6 modpost: remove is_vmlinux() call in check_for_{gpl_usage,unused}() check_exports() is never called for vmlinux because mod->skip is set for vmlinux. Hence, check_for_gpl_usage() and check_for_unused() are not called for vmlinux, either. is_vmlinux() is always false here. Remove the is_vmlinux() calls, and hard-code the ".ko" suffix. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC
3379576 modpost: remove mod->is_dot_o struct member Previously, there were two cases where mod->is_dot_o is unset: [1] the executable 'vmlinux' in the second pass of modpost [2] modules loaded by read_dump() I think [1] was intended usage to distinguish 'vmlinux.o' and 'vmlinux'. Now that modpost does not parse the executable 'vmlinux', this case does not happen. [2] is obscure, maybe a bug. Module.symver stores module paths without extension. So, none of modules loaded by read_dump() has the .o suffix, and new_module() unsets ->is_dot_o. Anyway, it is not a big deal because handle_symbol() is not called for the case. To sum up, all the parsed ELF files are .o files. mod->is_dot_o is unneeded. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC

467b82d modpost: remove -s option The -s option was added by commit 8d8d8289df65 ("kbuild: do not do section mismatch checks on vmlinux in 2nd pass"). Now that the second pass does not parse vmlinux, this option is unneeded. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC
7589357 modpost: remove get_next_text() and make {grab,release_}file static get_next_line() is no longer used. Remove. grab_file() and release_file() are only used in modpost.c. Make them static. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC
70f30cf modpost: use read_text_file() and get_line() for reading text files grab_file() mmaps a file, but it is not so efficient here because get_next_line() copies every line to the temporary buffer anyway. read_text_file() and get_line() are simpler. get_line() exploits the library function strchr(). Going forward, the missing *.symvers or *.cmd is a fatal error. This should not happen because scripts/Makefile.modpost guards the -i option files with $(wildcard $(input-symdump)). Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC
7c8f566 modpost: avoid false-positive file open error One problem of grab_file() is that it cannot distinguish the following two cases: - It cannot read the file (the file does not exist, or read permission is not set) - It can read the file, but the file size is zero This is because grab_file() calls mmap(), which requires the mapped length is greater than 0. Hence, grab_file() fails for both cases. If an empty header file were included for checksum calculation, the following warning would be printed: WARNING: modpost: could not open ...: Invalid argument An empty file is a valid source file, so it should not fail. Use read_text_file() instead. It can read a zero-length file. Then, parse_file() will succeed with doing nothing. Going forward, the first case (it cannot read the file) is a fatal error. If the source file from which an object was compiled is missing, something went wrong. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC
f531c1b modpost: fix potential mmap'ed file overrun in get_src_version() I do not know how reliably this function works, but it looks dangerous to me. strchr(sources, '\n'); ... continues searching until it finds '\n' or it reaches the '\0' terminator. In other words, 'sources' should be a null-terminated string. However, grab_file() just mmaps a file, so 'sources' is not terminated with null byte. If the file does not contain '\n' at all, strchr() will go beyond the mmap'ed memory. Use read_text_file(), which loads the file content into a malloc'ed buffer, appending null byte. Here we are interested only in the first line of *.mod files. Use get_line() helper to get the first line. This also makes missing *.mod file a fatal error. Commit 4be40e22233c ("kbuild: do not emit src version warning for non-modules") ignored missing *.mod files. I do not fully understand what that commit addressed, but commit 91341d4b2c19 ("kbuild: introduce new option to enhance section mismatch analysis") introduced partial section checks by using modpost. built-in.o was parsed by modpost. Even modules had a problem because *.mod files were created after the modpost check. Commit b7dca6dd1e59 ("kbuild: create *.mod with full directory path and remove MODVERDIR") stopped doing that. Now that modpost is only invoked after the directory descend, *.mod files should always exist at the modpost stage. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:13 UTC
ac5100f modpost: add read_text_file() and get_line() helpers modpost uses grab_file() to open a file, but it is not suitable for a text file because the mmap'ed file is not terminated by null byte. Actually, I see some issues for the use of grab_file(). The new helper, read_text_file() loads the whole file content into a malloc'ed buffer, and appends a null byte. Then, get_line() reads each line. To handle text files, I intend to replace as follows: grab_file() -> read_text_file() get_new_line() -> get_line() Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:12 UTC
4ddea2f modpost: do not call get_modinfo() for vmlinux(.o) The three calls of get_modinfo() ("license", "import_ns", "version") always return NULL for vmlinux(.o) because the built-in module info is prefixed with __MODULE_INFO_PREFIX. It is harmless to call get_modinfo(), but there is no point to search for what apparently does not exist. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:12 UTC

48a0f72 modpost: show warning if any of symbol dump files is missing 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: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:12 UTC
7e8a323 modpost: show warning if vmlinux is not found when processing modules check_exports() does not print warnings about unresolved symbols if vmlinux is missing because there would be too many. This situation happens when you do 'make modules' from the clean tree, or compile external modules against a kernel tree that has not been completely built. It is dangerous to not check unresolved symbols because you might be building useless modules. At least it should be warned.

436b2ac modpost: invoke modpost only when input files are updated Currently, the second pass of modpost is always invoked when you run 'make' or 'make modules' even if none of modules is changed. Use if_changed to invoke it only when it is necessary. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:12 UTC
269a535 modpost: generate vmlinux.symvers and reuse it for the second modpost 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.

e3fb4df modpost: re-add -e to set external_module flag Previously, the -i option had two functions; load a symbol dump file, and set the external_module flag. I want to assign a dedicate option for each of them. Going forward, the -i is used to load a symbol dump file, and the -e to set the external_module flag. With this, we will be able to use -i for loading in-kernel symbols. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:38:12 UTC

ce2ddd6 modpost: allow to pass -i option multiple times to remove -e option Now that there is no difference between -i and -e, they can be unified.

52c3416 modpost: track if the symbol origin is a dump file or ELF object The meaning of sym->kernel is obscure; it is set for in-kernel symbols loaded from Modules.symvers. This happens only when we are building external modules, and it is used to determine whether to dump symbols to $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Modules.symvers It is clearer to remember whether the symbol or module came from a dump file or ELF object. This changes the KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS behavior. Previously, symbols loaded from KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS are accumulated into the current $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Modules.symvers Going forward, they will be only used to check symbol references, but not dumped into the current $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Modules.symvers. I believe this makes more sense. sym->vmlinux will have no user. Remove it too. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 06 June 2020, 14:36:55 UTC
2beee86 modpost: load KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS files in order Currently, modpost reads extra symbol dump files in the reverse order. If '-e foo -e bar' is given, modpost reads bar, foo, in this order. This is probably not a big deal, but there is no good reason to reverse the order. Read files in the given order. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 03 June 2020, 04:22:18 UTC
4e5ab74 modpost: pass -N option only for modules modpost The built-in only code is not required to have MODULE_IMPORT_NS() to use symbols. So, the namespace is not checked for vmlinux(.o).

91e6ee5 modpost: fix -i (--ignore-errors) MAKEFLAGS detection $(filter -i,$(MAKEFLAGS)) works only in limited use-cases. The representation of $(MAKEFLAGS) depends on various factors: - GNU Make version (version 3.8x or version 4.x) - The presence of other flags like -j In my experiments, $(MAKEFLAGS) is expanded as follows: * GNU Make 3.8x: * without -j option: --no-print-directory -Rri * with -j option: --no-print-directory -Rr --jobserver-fds=3,4 -j -i * GNU Make 4.x: * without -j option: irR --no-print-directory * with -j option: irR -j --jobserver-fds=3,4 --no-print-directory For GNU Make 4.x, the flags are grouped as 'irR', which does not work. For the single thread build with GNU Make 3.8x, the flags are grouped as '-Rri', which does not work either. To make it work for all cases, do likewise as commit 6f0fa58e4596 ("kbuild: simplify silent build (-s) detection"). BTW, since commit ff9b45c55b26 ("kbuild: modpost: read modules.order instead of $(MODVERDIR)/*.mod"), you also need to pass -k option to build final *.ko files. 'make -i -k' ignores compile errors in modules, and build as many remaining *.ko as possible. Please note this feature is kind of dangerous if other modules depend on the broken module because the generated modules will lack the correct module dependency or CRC. Honestly, I am not a big fan of it, but I am keeping this feature.

e9e81b6 kbuild: disallow multi-word in M= or KBUILD_EXTMOD $(firstword ...) in scripts/Makefile.modpost was added by commit 3f3fd3c05585 ("[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 0d96fb20b7ed ("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.

859c817 modpost,fixdep: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues. This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

7f3a59d kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programs 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.

9371f86 bpfilter: match bit size of bpfilter_umh to that of the kernel bpfilter_umh is built for the default machine bit of the compiler, which may not match to the bit size of the kernel. This happens in the scenario below: You can use biarch GCC that defaults to 64-bit for building the 32-bit kernel. In this case, Kbuild passes -m32 to teach the compiler to produce 32-bit kernel space objects. However, it is missing when building bpfilter_umh. It is built as a 64-bit ELF, and then embedded into the 32-bit kernel. The 32-bit kernel and 64-bit umh is a bad combination. In theory, we can have 32-bit umh running on 64-bit kernel, but we do not have a good reason to support such a usecase. The best is to match the bit size between them. Pass -m32 or -m64 to the umh build command if it is found in $(KBUILD_CFLAGS). Evaluate CC_CAN_LINK against the kernel bit-size.

30a7729 kbuild: use -MMD instead of -MD to exclude system headers from dependency This omits system headers from the generated header dependency. System headers are not updated unless you upgrade the compiler. Nor do they contain CONFIG options, so fixdep does not need to parse them. Having said that, the effect of this optimization will be quite small because the kernel code generally does not include system headers except <stdarg.h>. Host programs include a lot of system headers, but there are not so many in the kernel tree. At first, keeping system headers in .*.cmd files might be useful to detect the compiler update, but there is no guarantee that <stdarg.h> is included from every file. So, I implemented a more reliable way in the previous commit. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 12 May 2020, 04:28:33 UTC
8b59cd8 kbuild: ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated Commit 21c54b774744 ("kconfig: show compiler version text in the top comment") added the environment variable, CC_VERSION_TEXT in the comment of the top Kconfig file. It can detect the compiler update, and invoke the syncconfig because all environment variables referenced in Kconfig files are recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd This commit makes it a CONFIG option in order to ensure the full rebuild when the compiler is updated. This works like follows: include/config/kconfig.h contains "CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT" in the comment block. The top Makefile specifies "-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h" to guarantee it is included from all kernel source files. fixdep parses every source file and all headers included from it, searching for words prefixed with "CONFIG_". Then, fixdep finds CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT in include/config/kconfig.h and adds include/config/cc/version/text.h into every .*.cmd file. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig is invoked because init/Kconfig contains the reference to the environment variable CC_VERTION_TEXT. CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT is updated to the new version string, and include/config/cc/version/text.h is touched. In the next rebuild, Make will rebuild every files since the timestamp of include/config/cc/version/text.h is newer than that of target.

The optimization for small ranges failed to do so when the virtual address was in the vmalloc or module space. - Unbreak the trace event registration for syscalls without arguments caused by the refactoring of the SYSCALL_DEFINE0() macro. - Move the printk in the TSC deadline timer code to a place where it is guaranteed to only be called once during boot and cannot be rearmed by clearing warn_once after boot. If it's invoked post boot then lockdep rightfully complains about a potential deadlock as the calling context is different. - A series of fixes for objtool and the ORC unwinder addressing variety of small issues: - Stack offset tracking for indirect CFAs in objtool ignored subsequent pushs and pops - Repair the unwind hints in the register clearing entry ASM code - Make the unwinding in the low level exit to usermode code stop after switching to the trampoline stack. The unwind hint is no longer valid and the ORC unwinder emits a warning as it can't find the registers anymore. - Fix unwind hints in switch_to_asm() and rewind_stack_do_exit() which caused objtool to generate bogus ORC data. - Prevent unwinder warnings when dumping the stack of a non-current task as there is no way to be sure about the validity because the dumped stack can be a moving target. - Make the ORC unwinder behave the same way as the frame pointer unwinder when dumping an inactive tasks stack and do not skip the first frame. - Prevent ORC unwinding before ORC data has been initialized - Immediately terminate unwinding when a unknown ORC entry type is found. - Prevent premature stop of the unwinder caused by IRET frames. - Fix another infinite loop in objtool caused by a negative offset which was not catched. - Address a few build warnings in the ORC unwinder and add missing static/ro_after_init annotations" * tag 'x86-urgent-2020-05-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/unwind/orc: Move ORC sorting variables under !CONFIG_MODULES x86/apic: Move TSC deadline timer debug printk ftrace/x86: Fix trace event registration for syscalls without arguments x86/mm/cpa: Flush direct map alias during cpa objtool: Fix infinite loop in for_offset_range() x86/unwind/orc: Fix premature unwind stoppage due to IRET frames x86/unwind/orc: Fix error path for bad ORC entry type x86/unwind/orc: Prevent unwinding before ORC initialization x86/unwind/orc: Don't skip the first frame for inactive tasks x86/unwind: Prevent false warnings for non-current tasks x86/unwind/orc: Convert global variables to static x86/entry/64: Fix unwind hints in rewind_stack_do_exit() x86/entry/64: Fix unwind hints in __switch_to_asm() x86/entry/64: Fix unwind hints in kernel exit path x86/entry/64: Fix unwind hints in register clearing code objtool: Fix stack offset tracking for indirect CFAs 10 May 2020, 18:59:53 UTC

With those changes GCC9 fails to analyze arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() correctly and emits a 'maybe unitialized' warning. While we usually ignore compiler stupidity the conditional store is pointless anyway because the correct case has to store. For the fault case the extra store does no harm" * tag 'locking-urgent-2020-05-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: ARM: futex: Address build warning 10 May 2020, 18:39:31 UTC
27d2dcb Merge tag 'iommu-fixes-v5.7-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu Pull iommu fixes from Joerg Roedel: - Race condition fixes for the AMD IOMMU driver. These are five patches fixing two race conditions around increase_address_space(). The first race condition was around the non-atomic update of the domain page-table root pointer and the variable containing the page-table depth (called mode). This is fixed now be merging page-table root and mode into one 64-bit field which is read/written atomically. The second race condition was around updating the page-table root pointer and making it public before the hardware caches were flushed. This could cause addresses to be mapped and returned to drivers which are not reachable by IOMMU hardware yet, causing IO page-faults. This is fixed too by adding the necessary flushes before a new page-table root is published. Related to the race condition fixes these patches also add a missing domain_flush_complete() barrier to update_domain() and a fix to bail out of the loop which tries to increase the address space when the call to increase_address_space() fails. Qian was able to trigger the race conditions under high load and memory pressure within a few days of testing. He confirmed that he has seen no issues anymore with the fixes included here. - Fix for a list-handling bug in the VirtIO IOMMU driver. * tag 'iommu-fixes-v5.7-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu: iommu/virtio: Reverse arguments to list_add iommu/amd: Do not flush Device Table in iommu_map_page() iommu/amd: Update Device Table in increase_address_space() iommu/amd: Call domain_flush_complete() in update_domain() iommu/amd: Do not loop forever when trying to increase address space iommu/amd: Fix race in increase_address_space()/fetch_pte() 10 May 2020, 18:26:23 UTC

e99332e gcc-10: mark more functions __init to avoid section mismatch warnings It seems that for whatever reason, gcc-10 ends up not inlining a couple of functions that used to be inlined before. Even if they only have one single callsite - it looks like gcc may have decided that the code was unlikely, and not worth inlining. The code generation difference is harmless, but caused a few new section mismatch errors, since the (now no longer inlined) function wasn't in the __init section, but called other init functions: Section mismatch in reference from the function kexec_free_initrd() to the function .init.text:free_initrd_mem() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memremap() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memunmap() So add the appropriate __init annotation to make modpost not complain. In both cases there were trivially just a single callsite from another __init function. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 10 May 2020, 00:50:03 UTC
