While trying to figure out why fentry_fexit selftest doesn't pass for me
(old pahole, broken BTF), I found out that my latest patch can break vmlinux
.BTF generation. objcopy preserves section start when doing --only-section,
so there is a chance (depending on where pahole inserts .BTF section) to
have leading empty zeroes. Let's explicitly force section offset to zero.
Before:
$ objcopy --set-section-flags .BTF=alloc -O binary \
--only-section=.BTF vmlinux .btf.vmlinux.bin
$ xxd .btf.vmlinux.bin | head -n1
00000000: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ................
After:
$ objcopy --change-section-address .BTF=0 \
--set-section-flags .BTF=alloc -O binary \
--only-section=.BTF vmlinux .btf.vmlinux.bin
$ xxd .btf.vmlinux.bin | head -n1
00000000: 9feb 0100 1800 0000 0000 0000 80e1 1c00 ................
^BTF magic
As part of this change, I'm also dropping '2>/dev/null' from objcopy
invocation to be able to catch possible other issues (objcopy doesn't
produce any warnings for me anymore, it did before with --dump-section).

If vmlinux BTF generation fails, but CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is set,
.BTF section of vmlinux is empty and kernel will prohibit
BPF loading and return "in-kernel BTF is malformed".
--dump-section argument to binutils' objcopy was added in version 2.25.
When using pre-2.25 binutils, BTF generation silently fails. Convert
to --only-section which is present on pre-2.25 binutils.

sym_entry::sym is (unsigned char *) instead of (char *) because
kallsyms exploits the MSB for compression, and the characters are
used as the index of token_profit array.
However, it requires casting (unsigned char *) to (char *) in some
places since standard library functions such as strcmp(), strlen()
expect (char *).
Introduce a new helper, sym_name(), which advances the given pointer
by 1 and casts it to (char *).

Currently, record_relative_base() iterates over the entire table to

After sort_symbol(), the table is sorted by address. (kallsyms parses

When 'exported twice' is warned, let sym_add_exported() return without
updating the symbol info. This respects the previous export, which is
ordered first in modules.order
This simplifies the code too.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
Now that there is no overwrap between symbols from ELF files and
ones from Module.symvers.
So, the 'exported twice' warning should be reported irrespective
of where the symbol in question came from.
The exceptional case is external module; in some cases, we build
an external module to provide a different version/variant of the
corresponding in-kernel module, overriding the same set of exported
symbols.
You can see this use-case in upstream; tools/testing/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko
replaces drivers/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko in order to link it against mocked
version of core kernel symbols.
So, let's relax the 'exported twice' warning when building external
modules. The multiple export from external modules is warned only
when the previous one is from vmlinux or itself.
With this refactoring, the ugly preloading goes away.

It is complicated to add mocked-up symbols for pre-handling CRC.
Handle CRC after all the export symbols in the relevant module
are registered.
Call handle_modversion() after the handle_symbol() iteration.
In some cases, I see atand-alone __crc_* without __ksymtab_*.
For example, ARCH=arm allyesconfig produces __crc_ccitt_veneer and
__crc_itu_t_veneer. I guess they come from crc_ccitt, crc_itu_t,
respectively. Since __*_veneer are auto-generated symbols, just
ignore them.

This function handles not only modversions, but also unresolved

Currently, namespace_from_kstrtabns() relies on the fact that
namespace strings are recorded in the __ksymtab_strings section.
Actually, it is coded in include/linux/export.h, but modpost does
not need to hard-code the section name.
Elf_Sym::st_shndx holds the index of the relevant section. Using it is
a more portable way to get the namespace string.
Make namespace_from_kstrtabns() simply call sym_get_data(), and delete
the info->ksymtab_strings .
While I was here, I added more 'const' qualifiers to pointers.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
When CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is enabled, the value of __crc_* is not
an absolute value, but the address to the CRC data embedded in the
.rodata section.
Getting the data pointed by the symbol value is somewhat complex.
Split it out into a new helper, sym_get_data().
I will reuse it to refactor namespace_from_kstrtabns() in the next
commit.

Rasmus correctly observed that the existing jobserver reservation only
worked if no other build targets were specified. The correct approach
is to hold the jobserver slots until sphinx has finished. To fix this,
the following changes are made:
- refactor (and rename) scripts/jobserver-exec to set an environment
variable for the maximally reserved jobserver slots and exec a
child, to release the slots on exit.
- create Documentation/scripts/parallel-wrapper.sh which examines both
$PARALLELISM and the detected "-jauto" logic from Documentation/Makefile
to decide sphinx's final -j argument.
- chain these together in Documentation/Makefile

The baseline I'd like to keep is the compile-test of uapi headers.

of the exported headers.)

The incremental build of Linux kernel is pretty slow when lots of
objects are compiled. The rebuild of allmodconfig may take a few
minutes even when none of the objects needs to be rebuilt.
The time-consuming part in the incremental build is the evaluation of
if_changed* macros since they are used in the recipes to compile C and
assembly source files into objects.
I notice the following code in if_changed* is expensive:
$(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^)
In the incremental build, every object has its .*.cmd file, which
contains the auto-generated list of included headers. So, $^ are
expanded into the long list of the source file + included headers,
and $(wildcard $^) checks whether they exist.
It may not be clear why this check exists there.
Here is the record of my research.
[1] The first code addition into Kbuild
This code dates back to 2002. It is the pre-git era. So, I copy-pasted
it from the historical git tree.

The "No rule to make <file> ..." error can be solved by passing -MP to
the compiler, but I think the detection of header removal is a good
feature. When a header is removed, all source files that previously
included it should be re-compiled. This makes sure we has correctly
got rid of #include directives of it.
This is also related with the behavior of $?. The GNU Make manual says:
$?
The names of all the prerequisites that are newer than the target,
with spaces between them.
This does not explain whether a non-existent prerequisite is considered
to be newer than the target.
At this point of time, GNU Make 3.7x was used, where the $? did not
include non-existent prerequisites. Therefore,
$(filter-out FORCE $(wildcard $^),$^)
was useful to detect the header removal, and to rebuild the related
objects if it is the case.
[2] Change of $? behavior
Later, the behavior of $? was changed (fixed) to include prerequisites
that did not exist.
First, GNU Make commit 64e16d6c00a5 ("Various changes getting ready for
the release of 3.81.") changed it, but in the release test of 3.81, it
turned out to break the kernel build.
See these:
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html
- https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?16002
- https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?16051
Then, GNU Make commit 6d8d9b74d9c5 ("Numerous updates to tests for
issues found on Cygwin and Windows.") reverted it for the 3.81 release
to give Linux kernel time to adjust to the new behavior.
After the 3.81 release, GNU Make commit 7595f38f62af ("Fixed a number
of documentation bugs, plus some build/install issues:") re-added it.
[3] Adjustment to the new $? behavior on Kbuild side
Meanwhile, the kernel build was changed by commit 4f1933620f ("kbuild:
change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior") to adjust to
the new $? behavior.
[4] GNU Make 3.82 released in 2010
GNU Make 3.82 was the first release that integrated the correct $?
behavior. At this point, Kbuild dealt with GNU Make versions with
different $? behaviors.
3.81 or older:
$? does not contain any non-existent prerequisite.
$(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) was useful to detect
removed include headers.
3.82 or newer:
$? contains non-existent prerequisites. When a header is removed,
it appears in $?. $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) became
a redundant check.
With the correct $? behavior, we could have dropped the expensive
check for 3.82 or later, but we did not. (Maybe nobody noticed this
optimization.)
[5] The .SECONDARY special target trips up $?
Some time later, I noticed $? did not work as expected under some
circumstances. As above, $? should contain non-existent prerequisites,
but the ones specified as SECONDARY do not appear in $?.
I asked this in GNU Make ML, and it seems a bug:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2019-01/msg00001.html
Since commit 8e9b61b293 ("kbuild: move .SECONDARY special target to
Kbuild.include"), all files, including headers listed in .*.cmd files,
are treated as secondary.
So, we are back into the incorrect $? behavior.
If we Kbuild want to react to the header removal, we need to keep
$(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^) but this makes the rebuild
so slow.
[Summary]
- I believe noticing the header removal and recompiling related objects
is a nice feature for the build system.
- If $? worked correctly, $(filter-out $(PHONY),$?) would be enough
to detect the header removal.
- Currently, $? does not work correctly when used with .SECONDARY,
and Kbuild is hit by this bug.
- I filed a bug report for this, but not fixed yet as of writing.
- Currently, the header removal is detected by the following expensive
code:
$(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^)
- I do not want to revert commit 8e9b61b293 ("kbuild: move
.SECONDARY special target to Kbuild.include"). Specifying
.SECONDARY globally is clean, and it matches to the Kbuild policy.
This commit proactively removes the expensive check since it makes the
incremental build faster. A downside is Kbuild will no longer be able
to notice the header removal.
You can confirm it by the full-build followed by a header removal, and
then re-build.

Previously, Kbuild noticed a missing header and emits a build error.
Now, Kbuild is fine with it. This is an unusual corner-case, not a big
deal. Once the $? bug is fixed in GNU Make, everything will work fine.
