modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build fails Commit ea4054a23 (modpost: handle huge numbers of modules) added support for building a large number of modules. Unfortunately, the commit changed the semantics of the makefile: Instead of passing only existing object files to modpost, make now passes all expected object files. If make was started with option -i, this results in a modpost error if a single file failed to build. Example with the current btrfs build falure on m68k: fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory make[1]: [__modpost] Error 1 (ignored) This error is followed by lots of errors such as: m68k-linux-gcc: error: arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.c: No such file or directory m68k-linux-gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make[1]: [arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.o] Error 1 (ignored) This doesn't matter much for normal builds, but it is annoying for builds started with "make -i" due to the large number of secondary errors. Those errors unnececessarily clog any error log and make it difficult to find the real errors in the build. Fix the problem by adding a new parameter '-n' to modpost. If this parameter is specified, modpost reports but ignores missing object files. With this patch, error output from above problem is (with make -i): m68k-linux-ld: cannot find fs/btrfs/ioctl.o: No such file or directory make[2]: [fs/btrfs/btrfs.o] Error 1 (ignored) ... fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory (ignored) Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Michael Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

modpost: change the license of EXPORT_SYMBOL to bool type There were more EXPORT_SYMBOL types in the past. The following commits removed unused ones. - f1c3d73e973c ("module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE") - 367948220fce ("module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*") There are 3 remaining in enum export, but export_unknown does not make any sense because we never expect such a situation like "we do not know how it was exported". If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an exported symbol. It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined: int __ksymtab_foo; Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either). Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case. With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL). I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true. Only GPL-compatible modules can use it. I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.

kbuild: fix false-positive modpost warning when all symbols are trimmed Nathan reports that the mips defconfig emits the following warning: WARNING: modpost: Symbol info of vmlinux is missing. Unresolved symbol check will be entirely skipped. This false-positive happens when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, but no CONFIG option is set to 'm'. Commit a0590473c5e6 ("nfs: fix PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT Kconfig default") turned the last 'm' into 'y' for the mips defconfig, and uncovered this issue. In this case, the module feature itself is enabled, but we have no module to build. As a result, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS drops all the instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL. Then, modpost wrongly assumes vmlinux is missing because vmlinux.symvers is empty. (As another false-positive case, you can create a module that does not use any symbol of vmlinux). The current behavior is to entirely suppress the unresolved symbol warnings when vmlinux is missing just because there are too many. I found the origin of this code in the historical git tree. [1] If this is a matter of noisiness, I think modpost can display the first 10 warnings, and the number of suppressed warnings at the end. You will get a bit noisier logs when you run 'make modules' without vmlinux, but such warnings are better to show because you never know the resulting modules are actually loadable or not. This commit changes the following: - If any of input *.symver files is missing, pass -w option to let the module build keep going with warnings instead of errors. - If there are too many (10+) unresolved symbol warnings, show only the first 10, and also the number of suppressed warnings.

modpost: fix broken sym->namespace for external module builds Currently, external module builds produce tons of false-positives: WARNING: module <mod> uses symbol <sym> from namespace <ns>, but does not import it. Here, the <ns> part shows a random string. When you build external modules, the symbol info of vmlinux and in-kernel modules are read from $(objtree)/Module.symvers, but read_dump() is buggy in multiple ways: [1] When the modpost is run for vmlinux and in-kernel modules, sym_extract_namespace() allocates memory for the namespace. On the other hand, read_dump() does not, then sym->namespace will point to somewhere in the line buffer of get_next_line(). The data in the buffer will be replaced soon, and sym->namespace will end up with pointing to unrelated data. As a result, check_exports() will show random strings in the warning messages. [2] When there is no namespace, sym_extract_namespace() returns NULL. On the other hand, read_dump() sets namespace to an empty string "". (but, it will be later replaced with unrelated data due to bug [1].) The check_exports() shows a warning unless exp->namespace is NULL, so every symbol read from read_dump() emits the warning, which is mostly false positive. To address [1], sym_add_exported() calls strdup() for s->namespace. The namespace from sym_extract_namespace() must be freed to avoid memory leak. For [2], I changed the if-conditional in check_exports(). This commit also fixes sym_add_exported() to set s->namespace correctly when the symbol is preloaded.

kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S. For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL(). The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages. When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section. For example, EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE); will be encoded into the following assembly code: .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_foo: .asciz "" /* license */ .asciz "" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad foo /* symbol reference */ .previous .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_bar: .asciz "GPL" /* license */ .asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad bar /* symbol reference */ .previous They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script. Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the .export_symbol section, and generates the final C code: KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", ""); KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE"); KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module. With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S files, providing the following benefits. [1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file. arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner. Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation. Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition in *.S files. It was a nice improvement. However, as that commit mentioned, you need to use EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() for data objects on some architectures. In the new approach, modpost checks symbol's type (STT_FUNC or not), and outputs KSYMTAB_FUNC() or KSYMTAB_DATA() accordingly. There are only two users of EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL: EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL_GPL(empty_zero_page) (arch/ia64/kernel/head.S) EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL(ia64_ivt) (arch/ia64/kernel/ivt.S) They are transformed as follows and output into .vmlinux.export.c KSYMTAB_DATA(empty_zero_page, "_gpl", ""); KSYMTAB_DATA(ia64_ivt, "", ""); The other EXPORT_SYMBOL users in ia64 assembly are output as KSYMTAB_FUNC(). EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() is now deprecated. [2] merge <linux/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> There are two similar header implementations: include/linux/export.h for .c files include/asm-generic/export.h for .S files Ideally, the functionality should be consistent between them, but they tend to diverge. Commit 8651ec01daed ("module: add support for symbol namespaces.") did not support the namespace for *.S files. This commit shifts the essential implementation part to C, which supports EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for *.S files. <asm/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> will remain as a wrapper of <linux/export.h> for a while. They will be removed after #include <asm/export.h> directives are all replaced with #include <linux/export.h>. [3] Implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS in one-pass algorithm (by a later commit) When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op. We can do this better now; modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules.

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.

modpost: change the license of EXPORT_SYMBOL to bool type There were more EXPORT_SYMBOL types in the past. The following commits removed unused ones. - f1c3d73e973c ("module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE") - 367948220fce ("module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*") There are 3 remaining in enum export, but export_unknown does not make any sense because we never expect such a situation like "we do not know how it was exported". If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an exported symbol. It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined: int __ksymtab_foo; Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either). Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case. With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL). I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true. Only GPL-compatible modules can use it. I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.

modpost: extract symbol versions from *.cmd files Currently, CONFIG_MODVERSIONS needs extra link to embed the symbol versions into ELF objects. Then, modpost extracts the version CRCs from them. The following figures show how it currently works, and how I am trying to change it. Current implementation ====================== |----------| embed CRC -------------------------->| final | $(CC) $(LD) / |---------| | link for | -----> *.o -------> *.o -->| modpost | | vmlinux | / / | |-- *.mod.c -->| or | / genksyms / |---------| | module | *.c ------> *.symversions |----------| Genksyms outputs the calculated CRCs in the form of linker script (*.symversions), which is used by $(LD) to update the object. If CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, the build process is much more complex. Embedding the CRCs is postponed until the LLVM bitcode is converted into ELF, creating another intermediate *.prelink.o. However, this complexity is unneeded. There is no reason why we must embed version CRCs in objects so early. There is final link stage for vmlinux (scripts/link-vmlinux.sh) and modules (scripts/Makefile.modfinal). We can link CRCs at the very last moment.

modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build fails Commit ea4054a23 (modpost: handle huge numbers of modules) added support for building a large number of modules. Unfortunately, the commit changed the semantics of the makefile: Instead of passing only existing object files to modpost, make now passes all expected object files. If make was started with option -i, this results in a modpost error if a single file failed to build. Example with the current btrfs build falure on m68k: fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory make[1]: [__modpost] Error 1 (ignored) This error is followed by lots of errors such as: m68k-linux-gcc: error: arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.c: No such file or directory m68k-linux-gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make[1]: [arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.o] Error 1 (ignored) This doesn't matter much for normal builds, but it is annoying for builds started with "make -i" due to the large number of secondary errors. Those errors unnececessarily clog any error log and make it difficult to find the real errors in the build. Fix the problem by adding a new parameter '-n' to modpost. If this parameter is specified, modpost reports but ignores missing object files. With this patch, error output from above problem is (with make -i): m68k-linux-ld: cannot find fs/btrfs/ioctl.o: No such file or directory make[2]: [fs/btrfs/btrfs.o] Error 1 (ignored) ... fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory (ignored) Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Michael Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S. For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL(). The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages. When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section. For example, EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE); will be encoded into the following assembly code: .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_foo: .asciz "" /* license */ .asciz "" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad foo /* symbol reference */ .previous .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_bar: .asciz "GPL" /* license */ .asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad bar /* symbol reference */ .previous They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script. Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the .export_symbol section, and generates the final C code: KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", ""); KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE"); KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module. With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S files, providing the following benefits. [1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file. arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner. Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation. Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition in *.S files. It was a nice improvement. However, as that commit mentioned, you need to use EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() for data objects on some architectures. In the new approach, modpost checks symbol's type (STT_FUNC or not), and outputs KSYMTAB_FUNC() or KSYMTAB_DATA() accordingly. There are only two users of EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL: EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL_GPL(empty_zero_page) (arch/ia64/kernel/head.S) EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL(ia64_ivt) (arch/ia64/kernel/ivt.S) They are transformed as follows and output into .vmlinux.export.c KSYMTAB_DATA(empty_zero_page, "_gpl", ""); KSYMTAB_DATA(ia64_ivt, "", ""); The other EXPORT_SYMBOL users in ia64 assembly are output as KSYMTAB_FUNC(). EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() is now deprecated. [2] merge <linux/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> There are two similar header implementations: include/linux/export.h for .c files include/asm-generic/export.h for .S files Ideally, the functionality should be consistent between them, but they tend to diverge. Commit 8651ec01daed ("module: add support for symbol namespaces.") did not support the namespace for *.S files. This commit shifts the essential implementation part to C, which supports EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for *.S files. <asm/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> will remain as a wrapper of <linux/export.h> for a while. They will be removed after #include <asm/export.h> directives are all replaced with #include <linux/export.h>. [3] Implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS in one-pass algorithm (by a later commit) When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op. We can do this better now; modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules.

powerpc/bug: Provide better flexibility to WARN_ON/__WARN_FLAGS() with asm goto Using asm goto in __WARN_FLAGS() and WARN_ON() allows more flexibility to GCC. For that add an entry to the exception table so that program_check_exception() knowns where to resume execution after a WARNING. Here are two exemples. The first one is done on PPC32 (which benefits from the previous patch), the second is on PPC64. unsigned long test(struct pt_regs *regs) { int ret; WARN_ON(regs->msr & MSR_PR); return regs->gpr[3]; } unsigned long test9w(unsigned long a, unsigned long b) { if (WARN_ON(!b)) return 0; return a / b; } Before the patch: 000003a8 <test>: 3a8: 81 23 00 84 lwz r9,132(r3) 3ac: 71 29 40 00 andi. r9,r9,16384 3b0: 40 82 00 0c bne 3bc <test+0x14> 3b4: 80 63 00 0c lwz r3,12(r3) 3b8: 4e 80 00 20 blr 3bc: 0f e0 00 00 twui r0,0 3c0: 80 63 00 0c lwz r3,12(r3) 3c4: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000000000bf0 <.test9w>: bf0: 7c 89 00 74 cntlzd r9,r4 bf4: 79 29 d1 82 rldicl r9,r9,58,6 bf8: 0b 09 00 00 tdnei r9,0 bfc: 2c 24 00 00 cmpdi r4,0 c00: 41 82 00 0c beq c0c <.test9w+0x1c> c04: 7c 63 23 92 divdu r3,r3,r4 c08: 4e 80 00 20 blr c0c: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c10: 4e 80 00 20 blr After the patch: 000003a8 <test>: 3a8: 81 23 00 84 lwz r9,132(r3) 3ac: 71 29 40 00 andi. r9,r9,16384 3b0: 40 82 00 0c bne 3bc <test+0x14> 3b4: 80 63 00 0c lwz r3,12(r3) 3b8: 4e 80 00 20 blr 3bc: 0f e0 00 00 twui r0,0 0000000000000c50 <.test9w>: c50: 7c 89 00 74 cntlzd r9,r4 c54: 79 29 d1 82 rldicl r9,r9,58,6 c58: 0b 09 00 00 tdnei r9,0 c5c: 7c 63 23 92 divdu r3,r3,r4 c60: 4e 80 00 20 blr c70: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c74: 4e 80 00 20 blr In the first exemple, we see GCC doesn't need to duplicate what happens after the trap.

modpost: skip ELF local symbols during section mismatch check During development of a serial console driver with a gcc 8.2.0 toolchain for RISC-V, the following modpost warning appeared: ---- WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x19b10): Section mismatch in reference from the variable .LANCHOR1 to the function .init.text:sifive_serial_console_setup() The variable .LANCHOR1 references the function __init sifive_serial_console_setup() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console ---- ".LANCHOR1" is an ELF local symbol, automatically created by gcc's section anchor generation code: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Anchored-Addresses.html https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gcc/varasm.c;h=cd9591a45617464946dcf9a126dde277d9de9804;hb=9fb89fa845c1b2e0a18d85ada0b077c84508ab78#l7473 This was verified by compiling the kernel with -fno-section-anchors and observing that the ".LANCHOR1" ELF local symbol disappeared, and modpost no longer warned about the section mismatch. The serial driver code idiom triggering the warning is standard Linux serial driver practice that has a specific whitelist inclusion in modpost.c. I'm neither a modpost nor an ELF expert, but naively, it doesn't seem useful for modpost to report section mismatch warnings caused by ELF local symbols by default. Local symbols have compiler-generated names, and thus bypass modpost's whitelisting algorithm, which relies on the presence of a non-autogenerated symbol name. This increases the likelihood that false positive warnings will be generated (as in the above case). Thus, disable section mismatch reporting on ELF local symbols. The rationale here is similar to that of commit 2e3a10a1551d ("ARM: avoid ARM binutils leaking ELF local symbols") and of similar code already present in modpost.c: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/scripts/mod/modpost.c?h=v4.19-rc4&id=7876320f88802b22d4e2daf7eb027dd14175a0f8#n1256 This third version of the patch implements a suggestion from Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> to restructure the code as an additional pattern matching step inside secref_whitelist(), and further improves the patch description.

kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S. For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL(). The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages. When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section. For example, EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE); will be encoded into the following assembly code: .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_foo: .asciz "" /* license */ .asciz "" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad foo /* symbol reference */ .previous .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_bar: .asciz "GPL" /* license */ .asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad bar /* symbol reference */ .previous They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script. Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the .export_symbol section, and generates the final C code: KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", ""); KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE"); KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module. With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S files, providing the following benefits. [1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file. arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner. Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation. Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition in *.S files. It was a nice improvement. However, as that commit mentioned, you need to use EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() for data objects on some architectures. In the new approach, modpost checks symbol's type (STT_FUNC or not), and outputs KSYMTAB_FUNC() or KSYMTAB_DATA() accordingly. There are only two users of EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL: EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL_GPL(empty_zero_page) (arch/ia64/kernel/head.S) EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL(ia64_ivt) (arch/ia64/kernel/ivt.S) They are transformed as follows and output into .vmlinux.export.c KSYMTAB_DATA(empty_zero_page, "_gpl", ""); KSYMTAB_DATA(ia64_ivt, "", ""); The other EXPORT_SYMBOL users in ia64 assembly are output as KSYMTAB_FUNC(). EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() is now deprecated. [2] merge <linux/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> There are two similar header implementations: include/linux/export.h for .c files include/asm-generic/export.h for .S files Ideally, the functionality should be consistent between them, but they tend to diverge. Commit 8651ec01daed ("module: add support for symbol namespaces.") did not support the namespace for *.S files. This commit shifts the essential implementation part to C, which supports EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for *.S files. <asm/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> will remain as a wrapper of <linux/export.h> for a while. They will be removed after #include <asm/export.h> directives are all replaced with #include <linux/export.h>. [3] Implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS in one-pass algorithm (by a later commit) When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op. We can do this better now; modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules.

kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S. For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL(). The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages. When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section. For example, EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE); will be encoded into the following assembly code: .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_foo: .asciz "" /* license */ .asciz "" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad foo /* symbol reference */ .previous .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_bar: .asciz "GPL" /* license */ .asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad bar /* symbol reference */ .previous They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script. Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the .export_symbol section, and generates the final C code: KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", ""); KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE"); KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module. With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S files, providing the following benefits. [1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file. arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner. Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation. Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition in *.S files. It was a nice improvement. However, as that commit mentioned, you need to use EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() for data objects on some architectures. In the new approach, modpost checks symbol's type (STT_FUNC or not), and outputs KSYMTAB_FUNC() or KSYMTAB_DATA() accordingly. There are only two users of EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL: EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL_GPL(empty_zero_page) (arch/ia64/kernel/head.S) EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL(ia64_ivt) (arch/ia64/kernel/ivt.S) They are transformed as follows and output into .vmlinux.export.c KSYMTAB_DATA(empty_zero_page, "_gpl", ""); KSYMTAB_DATA(ia64_ivt, "", ""); The other EXPORT_SYMBOL users in ia64 assembly are output as KSYMTAB_FUNC().

[test code 2] #include <linux/init.h> int __initdata foo; int get_foo(void) { return foo; } int __initdata bar; int get_bar(void) { return bar; } With this commit applied, modpost will show the following messages for ARM versatile_defconfig: WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: get_foo (section: .text) -> foo (section: .init.data) WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: get_bar (section: .text) -> foo (section: .init.data) The reference from 'get_bar' to 'foo' seems wrong. I have no solution for this because it is true in assembly level. In the following output, relocation at 0x1c is no longer associated with 'bar'. The two relocation entries point to the same symbol, and the offset to 'bar' is encoded in the instruction 'r0, [r3, #4]'.

I am keeping the current logic because it is useful in many architectures, but the symbol name is not always correct depending on the optimization. I left some comments in find_tosym().

modpost: detect section mismatch for R_ARM_THM_{MOVW_ABS_NC,MOVT_ABS} When CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL is enabled, modpost fails to detect some types of section mismatches. [test code] #include <linux/init.h> int __initdata foo; int get_foo(void) { return foo; } It is apparently a bad reference, but modpost does not report anything. The test code above produces the following relocations. Relocation section '.rel.text' at offset 0x1e8 contains 2 entries: Offset Info Type Sym.Value Sym. Name 00000000 0000052f R_ARM_THM_MOVW_AB 00000000 .LANCHOR0 00000004 00000530 R_ARM_THM_MOVT_AB 00000000 .LANCHOR0 Currently, R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_THM_MOVT_ABS are just skipped. Add code to handle them. I checked arch/arm/kernel/module.c to learn how the offset is encoded in the instruction. One more thing to note for Thumb instructions - the st_value is an odd value, so you need to mask the bit 0 to get the offset. Otherwise, you will get an off-by-one error in the nearest symbol look-up. It is documented in "ELF for the ARM Architecture" [1]: In addition to the normal rules for symbol values the following rules shall also apply to symbols of type STT_FUNC: * If the symbol addresses an Arm instruction, its value is the address of the instruction (in a relocatable object, the offset of the instruction from the start of the section containing it). * If the symbol addresses a Thumb instruction, its value is the address of the instruction with bit zero set (in a relocatable object, the section offset with bit zero set). * For the purposes of relocation the value used shall be the address of the instruction (st_value & ~1).

kbuild: fix false-positive modpost warning when all symbols are trimmed Nathan reports that the mips defconfig emits the following warning: WARNING: modpost: Symbol info of vmlinux is missing. Unresolved symbol check will be entirely skipped. This false-positive happens when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, but no CONFIG option is set to 'm'. Commit a0590473c5e6 ("nfs: fix PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT Kconfig default") turned the last 'm' into 'y' for the mips defconfig, and uncovered this issue. In this case, the module feature itself is enabled, but we have no module to build. As a result, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS drops all the instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL. Then, modpost wrongly assumes vmlinux is missing because vmlinux.symvers is empty. (As another false-positive case, you can create a module that does not use any symbol of vmlinux). The current behavior is to entirely suppress the unresolved symbol warnings when vmlinux is missing just because there are too many. I found the origin of this code in the historical git tree. [1] If this is a matter of noisiness, I think modpost can display the first 10 warnings, and the number of suppressed warnings at the end. You will get a bit noisier logs when you run 'make modules' without vmlinux, but such warnings are better to show because you never know the resulting modules are actually loadable or not. This commit changes the following: - If any of input *.symver files is missing, pass -w option to let the module build keep going with warnings instead of errors. - If there are too many (10+) unresolved symbol warnings, show only the first 10, and also the number of suppressed warnings.

kbuild: implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS without recursion When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim.

Linus stated negative opinions about this slowness in commits: - 5cf0fd591f2e ("Kbuild: disable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option") - a555bdd0c58c ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some guarding") We can do this better now.

With the list of modules, modpost sets sym->used if it is used by a module. modpost emits KSYMTAB only for symbols with sym->used==true.

modpost: change the license of EXPORT_SYMBOL to bool type There were more EXPORT_SYMBOL types in the past. The following commits removed unused ones. - f1c3d73e973c ("module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE") - 367948220fce ("module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*") There are 3 remaining in enum export, but export_unknown does not make any sense because we never expect such a situation like "we do not know how it was exported". If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an exported symbol. It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined: int __ksymtab_foo; Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either). Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case. With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL). I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true. Only GPL-compatible modules can use it. I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.

kbuild: add an elfnote for whether vmlinux is built with lto Currently, clang LTO built vmlinux won't work with pahole. LTO introduced cross-cu dwarf tag references and broke current pahole model which handles one cu as a time. The solution is to merge all cu's as one pahole cu as in [1]. We would like to do this merging only if cross-cu dwarf references happens. The LTO build mode is a pretty good indication for that. In earlier version of this patch ([2]), clang flag -grecord-gcc-switches is proposed to add to compilation flags so pahole could detect "-flto" and then merging cu's. This will increate the binary size of 1% without LTO though. Arnaldo suggested to use a note to indicate the vmlinux is built with LTO. Such a cheap way to get whether the vmlinux is built with LTO or not helps pahole but is also useful for tracing as LTO may inline/delete/demote global functions, promote static functions, etc. So this patch added an elfnote with a new type LINUX_ELFNOTE_LTO_INFO. The owner of the note is "Linux". With gcc 8.4.1 and clang trunk, without LTO, I got $ readelf -n vmlinux Displaying notes found in: .notes Owner Data size Description ...

With clang thin-LTO, I got the same as above except the following: description data: 01 00 00 00 which indicates the vmlinux is built with LTO.

x86/unwind/orc: Add ELF section with ORC version identifier Commits ffb1b4a41016 ("x86/unwind/orc: Add 'signal' field to ORC metadata") and fb799447ae29 ("x86,objtool: Split UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY in two") changed the ORC format. Although ORC is internal to the kernel, it's the only way for external tools to get reliable kernel stack traces on x86-64. In particular, the drgn debugger [1] uses ORC for stack unwinding, and these format changes broke it [2]. As the drgn maintainer, I don't care how often or how much the kernel changes the ORC format as long as I have a way to detect the change. It suffices to store a version identifier in the vmlinux and kernel module ELF files (to use when parsing ORC sections from ELF), and in kernel memory (to use when parsing ORC from a core dump+symbol table). Rather than hard-coding a version number that needs to be manually bumped, Peterz suggested hashing the definitions from orc_types.h. If there is a format change that isn't caught by this, the hashing script can be updated. This patch adds an .orc_header allocated ELF section containing the 20-byte hash to vmlinux and kernel modules, along with the corresponding __start_orc_header and __stop_orc_header symbols in vmlinux. 1: https://github.com/osandov/drgn 2: https://github.com/osandov/drgn/issues/303 Fixes: ffb1b4a41016 ("x86/unwind/orc: Add 'signal' field to ORC metadata") Fixes: fb799447ae29 ("x86,objtool: Split UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY in two") Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/aef9c8dc43915b886a8c48509a12ec1b006ca1ca.1686690801.git.osandov@osandov.com

If CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, the build process is much more complex. Embedding the CRCs is postponed until the LLVM bitcode is converted into ELF, creating another intermediate *.prelink.o. However, this complexity is unneeded. There is no reason why we must embed version CRCs in objects so early. There is final link stage for vmlinux (scripts/link-vmlinux.sh) and modules (scripts/Makefile.modfinal). We can link CRCs at the very last moment.

kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S. For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL(). The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages. When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section. For example, EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE); will be encoded into the following assembly code: .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_foo: .asciz "" /* license */ .asciz "" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad foo /* symbol reference */ .previous .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_bar: .asciz "GPL" /* license */ .asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad bar /* symbol reference */ .previous They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script. Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the .export_symbol section, and generates the final C code: KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", ""); KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE"); KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module. With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S files, providing the following benefits. [1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file. arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner. Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation. Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition in *.S files. It was a nice improvement.

kbuild: implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS without recursion When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op. Linus stated negative opinions about this slowness in commits: - 5cf0fd591f2e ("Kbuild: disable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option") - a555bdd0c58c ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some guarding") We can do this better now. The final data structures of EXPORT_SYMBOL are generated by the modpost stage, so modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules. Commit f73edc8951b2 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") is another ground-work to do this in a one-pass algorithm. With the list of modules, modpost sets sym->used if it is used by a module. modpost emits KSYMTAB only for symbols with sym->used==true. BTW, Nicolas explained why the trimming was implemented with recursion: https://lore.kernel.org/all/2o2rpn97-79nq-p7s2-nq5-8p83391473r@syhkavp.arg/ Actually, we never achieved that level of optimization where the chain reaction of trimming comes into play because: - CONFIG_LTO_CLANG cannot remove any unused symbols - CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is enabled only for vmlinux, but not modules If deeper trimming is required, we need to revisit this, but I guess that is unlikely to happen.

kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S. For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL(). The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages. When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section. For example, EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE); will be encoded into the following assembly code: .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_foo: .asciz "" /* license */ .asciz "" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad foo /* symbol reference */ .previous .section ".export_symbol","a" __export_symbol_bar: .asciz "GPL" /* license */ .asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */ .balign 8 .quad bar /* symbol reference */ .previous They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script. Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the .export_symbol section, and generates the final C code: KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", ""); KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE"); KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module. With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S files, providing the following benefits. [1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file. arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner. Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation. Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition in *.S files. It was a nice improvement.

modpost: fix module versioning when a symbol lacks valid CRC Since commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS"), module versioning is broken on some architectures. Loading a module fails with "disagrees about version of symbol module_layout". On such architectures (e.g. ARCH=sparc build with sparc64_defconfig), modpost shows a warning, like follows: WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "_mcount" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned. Is "_mcount" prototyped in <asm/asm-prototypes.h>? Previously, it was a harmless warning (CRC check was just skipped), but now wrong CRCs are used for comparison because invalid CRCs are just skipped. $ sparc64-linux-gnu-nm -n vmlinux [snip] 0000000000c2cea0 r __ksymtab__kstrtol 0000000000c2ceb8 r __ksymtab__kstrtoul 0000000000c2ced0 r __ksymtab__local_bh_enable 0000000000c2cee8 r __ksymtab__mcount 0000000000c2cf00 r __ksymtab__printk 0000000000c2cf18 r __ksymtab__raw_read_lock 0000000000c2cf30 r __ksymtab__raw_read_lock_bh [snip] 0000000000c53b34 D __crc__kstrtol 0000000000c53b38 D __crc__kstrtoul 0000000000c53b3c D __crc__local_bh_enable 0000000000c53b40 D __crc__printk 0000000000c53b44 D __crc__raw_read_lock 0000000000c53b48 D __crc__raw_read_lock_bh Please notice __crc__mcount is missing here. When the module subsystem looks up a CRC that comes after, it results in reading out a wrong address. For example, when __crc__printk is needed, the module subsystem reads 0xc53b44 instead of 0xc53b40. All CRC entries must be output for correct index accessing. Invalid CRCs will be unused, but are needed to keep the one-to-one mapping between __ksymtab_* and __crc_*. The best is to fix all modpost warnings, but several warnings are still remaining on less popular architectures.

modpost: move the namespace field in Module.symvers last In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc, symbol, module). In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbcedf44), which is over a decade ago now. Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next delimiter or end of line will follow.

If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an exported symbol. It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined: int __ksymtab_foo; Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either). Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case. With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL). I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true. Only GPL-compatible modules can use it. I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.

modpost: extract symbol versions from *.cmd files Currently, CONFIG_MODVERSIONS needs extra link to embed the symbol versions into ELF objects. Then, modpost extracts the version CRCs from them. The following figures show how it currently works, and how I am trying to change it. Current implementation ====================== |----------| embed CRC -------------------------->| final | $(CC) $(LD) / |---------| | link for | -----> *.o -------> *.o -->| modpost | | vmlinux | / / | |-- *.mod.c -->| or | / genksyms / |---------| | module | *.c ------> *.symversions |----------| Genksyms outputs the calculated CRCs in the form of linker script (*.symversions), which is used by $(LD) to update the object. If CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, the build process is much more complex. Embedding the CRCs is postponed until the LLVM bitcode is converted into ELF, creating another intermediate *.prelink.o. However, this complexity is unneeded. There is no reason why we must embed version CRCs in objects so early. There is final link stage for vmlinux (scripts/link-vmlinux.sh) and modules (scripts/Makefile.modfinal). We can link CRCs at the very last moment. New implementation ================== |----------| --------------------------------------->| final | $(CC) / |---------| | link for | -----> *.o ---->| | | vmlinux | / | modpost |--- .vmlinux.export.c -->| or | / genksyms | |--- *.mod.c ------------>| module | *.c ------> *.cmd -->|---------| |----------| Pass the symbol versions to modpost as separate text data, which are available in *.cmd files. This commit changes modpost to extract CRCs from *.cmd files instead of from ELF objects.

modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build fails Commit ea4054a23 (modpost: handle huge numbers of modules) added support for building a large number of modules. Unfortunately, the commit changed the semantics of the makefile: Instead of passing only existing object files to modpost, make now passes all expected object files. If make was started with option -i, this results in a modpost error if a single file failed to build. Example with the current btrfs build falure on m68k: fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory make[1]: [__modpost] Error 1 (ignored) This error is followed by lots of errors such as: m68k-linux-gcc: error: arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.c: No such file or directory m68k-linux-gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make[1]: [arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.o] Error 1 (ignored) This doesn't matter much for normal builds, but it is annoying for builds started with "make -i" due to the large number of secondary errors. Those errors unnececessarily clog any error log and make it difficult to find the real errors in the build. Fix the problem by adding a new parameter '-n' to modpost. If this parameter is specified, modpost reports but ignores missing object files. With this patch, error output from above problem is (with make -i): m68k-linux-ld: cannot find fs/btrfs/ioctl.o: No such file or directory make[2]: [fs/btrfs/btrfs.o] Error 1 (ignored) ... fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory (ignored) Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Michael Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

kbuild: implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS without recursion When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op. Linus stated negative opinions about this slowness in commits: - 5cf0fd591f2e ("Kbuild: disable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option") - a555bdd0c58c ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some guarding") We can do this better now. The final data structures of EXPORT_SYMBOL are generated by the modpost stage, so modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules. Commit f73edc8951b2 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") is another ground-work to do this in a one-pass algorithm. With the list of modules, modpost sets sym->used if it is used by a module. modpost emits KSYMTAB only for symbols with sym->used==true. BTW, Nicolas explained why the trimming was implemented with recursion: https://lore.kernel.org/all/2o2rpn97-79nq-p7s2-nq5-8p83391473r@syhkavp.arg/ Actually, we never achieved that level of optimization where the chain reaction of trimming comes into play because: - CONFIG_LTO_CLANG cannot remove any unused symbols - CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is enabled only for vmlinux, but not modules If deeper trimming is required, we need to revisit this, but I guess that is unlikely to happen.

kbuild: fix false-positive modpost warning when all symbols are trimmed Nathan reports that the mips defconfig emits the following warning: WARNING: modpost: Symbol info of vmlinux is missing. Unresolved symbol check will be entirely skipped. This false-positive happens when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, but no CONFIG option is set to 'm'. Commit a0590473c5e6 ("nfs: fix PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT Kconfig default") turned the last 'm' into 'y' for the mips defconfig, and uncovered this issue. In this case, the module feature itself is enabled, but we have no module to build. As a result, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS drops all the instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL. Then, modpost wrongly assumes vmlinux is missing because vmlinux.symvers is empty. (As another false-positive case, you can create a module that does not use any symbol of vmlinux). The current behavior is to entirely suppress the unresolved symbol warnings when vmlinux is missing just because there are too many. I found the origin of this code in the historical git tree. [1] If this is a matter of noisiness, I think modpost can display the first 10 warnings, and the number of suppressed warnings at the end. You will get a bit noisier logs when you run 'make modules' without vmlinux, but such warnings are better to show because you never know the resulting modules are actually loadable or not. This commit changes the following: - If any of input *.symver files is missing, pass -w option to let the module build keep going with warnings instead of errors. - If there are too many (10+) unresolved symbol warnings, show only the first 10, and also the number of suppressed warnings.
