gcc-4.7 and higher add a lot of false positive warnings about
potential uses of uninitialized warnings, but only when optimizing
for size (-Os). This is the default when building allyesconfig,
which turns on CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.
In order to avoid getting a lot of patches that initialize such
variables and accidentally hide real errors along the way, let's
just turn off this warning on the respective gcc versions
when building with size optimizations. The -Wmaybe-uninitialized
option was introduced in the same gcc version (4.7) that is now
causing the false positives, so there is no effect on older compilers.
A side effect is that when building with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE,
we might now see /fewer/ warnings about possibly uninitialized
warnings than with -O2, but that is still much better than seeing
warnings known to be bogus.

The source tree can contain lots of uninteresting data like tag or
cscope files, packaging which slows down make rpm needlessly. It can
also break the build, if the tree contains an unrelated file named
*.spec. The downside of this change is that new subdirectories have to
be added to the KBUILD_ALLDIRS variable in the top-level Makefile. The
upside is that the behavior is more predictable.

We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string
"_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and
SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to
do so.
Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to
prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are
defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set:
1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym)
3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7)
5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym)
6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version
for pasting.
(arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too).
Let's solve this properly:
1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm.
3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().
4) Make everyone use them.

Newer gcc enables the var-tracking pass with -g to keep track which
registers contain which variables. This is one of the slower passes in gcc.
With reduced debug info (aimed at objdump -S, but not using a full debugger)
we don't need this fine grained tracking. But it was still enabled
because -g was enabled. Disable it explicitely for DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED.
On my 8T workstation this gives me about a 12 second gain in building
a reasonable kernel config (2min16 vs 2min28) with DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED.
With full DEBUG_INFO it takes 2min46
The actual improvement in user time taken by the compiler is much higher
(all CPU combined user time 15min5s vs 16m30 before)
but the usual amdahl bottleneck on the linker prevents more speedup.
It still saves some more energy and keeps cycles for other things.

On architectures which have symbol prefixes, depmod emits lots of
warnings like this:
WARNING: $module.ko needs unknown symbol $symbol
This is because depmod isn't being passed the -P <symbol_prefix>
arguments to specify the symbol prefix to ignore. This option is
included since the 3.13 release of module-init-tools.
Update scripts/depmod.sh to take extra arguments for the symbol prefix
(required but may be empty), and update the main Makefile to always pass
"$(CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX)" to scripts/depmod.sh.
If the provided symbol prefix is non-empty, scripts/depmod.sh checks if
depmod --version reports module-init-tools with a version number < 3.13
otherwise it appends -P $SYMBOL_PREFIX to the depmod command line.

By popular demand, arch/aarch64 is now known as arch/arm64. However,
uname -m (and indeed the GNU triplet) still use aarch64 as the machine
string.
This patch fixes native builds of both the kernel and perf tools by
updating the relevant Makefiles to munge the output of uname -m and
set the ARCH variable appropriately.

It is easy to waste a bunch of time when one takes a 32-bit .config
from a test machine and try to build it on a faster 64-bit system, and
its existing setting of CONFIG_64BIT=n gets *changed* to match the
build host. Similarly, if one has an existing build tree it is easy
to trash an entire build tree that way.
This is because the default setting for $ARCH when discovered from
'uname' is one of the legacy pre-x86-merge values (i386 or x86_64),
which effectively force the setting of CONFIG_64BIT to match. We should
default to ARCH=x86 instead, finally completing the merge that we
started so long ago.
This patch preserves the behaviour of the legacy ARCH settings for commands
such as:
make ARCH=x86_64 randconfig
make ARCH=i386 randconfig
... since making the value of CONFIG_64BIT actually random in that situation
is not desirable.
In time, perhaps we can retire this legacy use of the old ARCH= values.
We already have a way to override values for *any* config option, using
$KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, so it could be argued that we don't necessarily need
to keep ARCH={i386,x86_64} around as a special case just for overriding
CONFIG_64BIT.
We'd probably at least want to add a way to override config options from
the command line ('make CONFIG_FOO=y oldconfig') before we talk about doing
that though.

Honour the O= flag that was passed to a higher level Makefile and then passed
down as part of a tool build.
To make this work, the top-level Makefile passes the original O= flag and
subdir=tools to the tools/Makefile, and that in turn passes
subdir=$(O)/$(subdir)/foodir when building tool foo in directory
$(O)/$(subdir)/foodir (where the intervening slashes aren't added if an
element is missing).
For example, take perf. This is found in tools/perf/. Assume we're building
into directory ~/zebra/, so we pass O=~/zebra to make. Dependening on where
we run the build from, we see:
make run in dir $(OUTPUT) dir
======================= ==================
linux ~/zebra/tools/perf/
linux/tools ~/zebra/perf/
linux/tools/perf ~/zebra/
and if O= is not set, we get:
make run in dir $(OUTPUT) dir
======================= ==================
linux linux/tools/perf/
linux/tools linux/tools/perf/
linux/tools/perf linux/tools/perf/
The output directories are created by the descend function if they don't
already exist.

Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system.
As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old
Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files.
The changes made in this commit are:
(1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to
uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we
get:
include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h
arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h
arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h
These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch.
(2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from
rather than the old path.
It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also
if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory
during the changeover.
I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a
directory not the install program.
(3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths
instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly
where to find each file.
For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each
output directory:
.../include/uapi/foo/
.../include/generated/uapi/foo/
.../include/foo/
.../include/generated/foo/
The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.

Partition the header include path flags into two sets, one for kernelspace
builds and one for userspace builds.
Add the following directories to build after the ordinary include directories
so that #include will pick up the UAPI header directly if the kernel header
has been moved there.
The userspace set (represented by the USERINCLUDE make variable) contains:
-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi
-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated/uapi
-I $(srctree)/include/uapi
-I include/generated/uapi
-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h
and the kernelspace set (represented by the LINUXINCLUDE make variable)
contains:
-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include
-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated
-I $(srctree)/include
-I include --- if not building in the source tree
plus everything in the USERINCLUDE set.
Then use USERINCLUDE in building the x86 boot code.

"Lots of changes in this cycle as well, with hundreds of commits from
over 30 contributors. Most of the activity was on the tooling side.
Higher level changes:
- New 'perf kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.
- New 'perf trace' system-wide tracing tool
- uprobes fixes + cleanups from Oleg Nesterov.
- Lots of patches to make perf build on Android out of box, from
Irina Tirdea
- Extend ftrace function tracing utility to be more dynamic for its
users. It allows for data passing to the callback functions, as
well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger at function
entry.
The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use
ftrace as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an
ftrace nop. With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going
through lots of iterations, we finally came up with a good
solution.
- Add cpumask for uncore pmu, use it in 'stat', from Yan, Zheng.
- Various tracing updates from Steve Rostedt
- Clean up and improve 'perf sched' performance by elliminating lots
of needless calls to libtraceevent.
- Event group parsing support, from Jiri Olsa
- UI/gtk refactorings and improvements from Namhyung Kim
- Add support for non-tracepoint events in perf script python, from
Feng Tang
- Add --symbols to 'script', similar to the one in 'report', from
Feng Tang.
Infrastructure enhancements and fixes:
- Convert the trace builtins to use the growing evsel/evlist
tracepoint infrastructure, removing several open coded constructs
like switch like series of strcmp to dispatch events, etc.
Basically what had already been showcased in 'perf sched'.
- Add evsel constructor for tracepoints, that uses libtraceevent just
to parse the /format events file, use it in a new 'perf test' to
make sure the libtraceevent format parsing regressions can be more
readily caught.
- Some strange errors were happening in some builds, but not on the
next, reported by several people, problem was some parser related
files, generated during the build, didn't had proper make deps, fix
from Eric Sandeen.
- Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where
a perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix handling of unresolved samples when --symbols is used in
'report', from Feng Tang.
- Add union member access support to 'probe', from Hyeoncheol Lee.
- Fixups to die() removal, from Namhyung Kim.
- Render fixes for the TUI, from Namhyung Kim.
- Don't enable annotation in non symbolic view, from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix pipe mode in 'report', from Namhyung Kim.
- Move related stats code from stat to util/, will be used by the
'stat' kvm tool, from Xiao Guangrong.
- Remove die()/exit() calls from several tools.
- Resolve vdso callchains, from Jiri Olsa
- Don't pass const char pointers to basename, so that we can
unconditionally use libgen.h and thus avoid ifdef BIONIC lines,
from David Ahern
- Refactor hist formatting so that it can be reused with the GTK
browser, From Namhyung Kim
- Fix build for another rbtree.c change, from Adrian Hunter.
- Make 'perf diff' command work with evsel hists, from Jiri Olsa.
- Use the only field_sep var that is set up: symbol_conf.field_sep,
fix from Jiri Olsa.
- .gitignore compiled python binaries, from Namhyung Kim.
- Get rid of die() in more libtraceevent places, from Namhyung Kim.
- Rename libtraceevent 'private' struct member to 'priv' so that it
works in C++, from Steven Rostedt
- Remove lots of exit()/die() calls from tools so that the main perf
exit routine can take place, from David Ahern
- Fix x86 build on x86-64, from David Ahern.
- {int,str,rb}list fixes from Suzuki K Poulose
- perf.data header fixes from Namhyung Kim
- Allow user to indicate objdump path, needed in cross environments,
from Maciek Borzecki
- Fix hardware cache event name generation, fix from Jiri Olsa
- Add round trip test for sw, hw and cache event names, catching the
problem Jiri fixed, after Jiri's patch, the test passes
successfully.
- Clean target should do clean for lib/traceevent too, fix from David
Ahern
- Check the right variable for allocation failure, fix from Namhyung
Kim
- Set up evsel->tp_format regardless of evsel->name being set
already, fix from Namhyung Kim
- Oprofile fixes from Robert Richter.
- Remove perf_event_attr needless version inflation, from Jiri Olsa
- Introduce libtraceevent strerror like error reporting facility,
from Namhyung Kim
- Add pmu mappings to perf.data header and use event names from cmd
line, from Robert Richter
- Fix include order for bison/flex-generated C files, from Ben
Hutchings
- Build fixes and documentation corrections from David Ahern
- Assorted cleanups from Robert Richter
- Let O= makes handle relative paths, from Steven Rostedt
- perf script python fixes, from Feng Tang.
- Initial bash completion support, from Frederic Weisbecker
- Allow building without libelf, from Namhyung Kim.
- Support DWARF CFI based unwind to have callchains when %bp based
unwinding is not possible, from Jiri Olsa.
- Symbol resolution fixes, while fixing support PPC64 files with an
.opt ELF section was the end goal, several fixes for code that
handles all architectures and cleanups are included, from Cody
Schafer.
- Assorted fixes for Documentation and build in 32 bit, from Robert
Richter
- Cache the libtraceevent event_format associated to each evsel
early, so that we avoid relookups, i.e. calling pevent_find_event
repeatedly when processing tracepoint events.
[ This is to reduce the surface contact with libtraceevents and
make clear what is that the perf tools needs from that lib: so
far parsing the common and per event fields. ]
- Don't stop the build if the audit libraries are not installed, fix
from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix bfd.h/libbfd detection with recent binutils, from Markus
Trippelsdorf.
- Improve warning message when libunwind devel packages not present,
from Jiri Olsa"

Thanks to Andi Kleen, gcc 4.6.0 now supports -mfentry for x86
(and hopefully soon for other archs). What this does is to have
the function profiler start at the beginning of the function
instead of after the stack is set up. As plain -pg (mcount) is
called after the stack is set up, and in some cases can have issues
with the function graph tracer. It also requires frame pointers to
be enabled.
The -mfentry now calls __fentry__ at the beginning of the function.
This allows for compiling without frame pointers and even has the
ability to access parameters if needed.
If the architecture and the compiler both support -mfentry then
use that instead.

Pull exception table generation updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change here is to allow the build-time sorting of the
exception table, to speed up booting. This is achieved by the
architecture enabling BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT. This option is enabled
for x86 and MIPS currently.
On x86 a number of fixes and changes were needed to allow build-time
sorting of the exception table, in particular a relocation invariant
exception table format was needed. This required the abstracting out
of exception table protocol and the removal of 20 years of accumulated
assumptions about the x86 exception table format.
While at it, this tree also cleans up various other aspects of
exception handling, such as early(er) exception handling for
rdmsr_safe() et al.
All in one, as the result of these changes the x86 exception code is
now pretty nice and modern. As an added bonus any regressions in this
code will be early and violent crashes, so if you see any of those,
you'll know whom to blame!"
Fix up trivial conflicts in arch/{mips,x86}/Kconfig files due to nearby
modifications of other core architecture options.

external tools like powertop to rely on.
- infrastructure: various improvements and refactoring of the UI

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.
In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.
16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.
The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.
[ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute
relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently
produces bad kernels. ]

Move the final link of vmlinux to a script to improve
readability and maintainability of the code.
The Makefile fragments used to link vmlinux has over the
years seen far too many changes and the logic had become
hard to follow.
As the process by nature is serialized there was
nothing gained including this in the Makefile.
"um" has special link requirments - and the
only way to handle this was to hard-code the linking
of "um" in the script.
This was better than trying to modularize it only for the
benefit of "um" anyway.
The shell script has been improved after input from:

This support was partially present in the existing code (look for
"__tilegx__" ifdefs) but with this change you can build a working
kernel using the TILE-Gx toolchain and ARCH=tilegx.
Most of these files are new, generally adding a foo_64.c file
where previously there was just a foo_32.c file.
The ARCH=tilegx directive redirects to arch/tile, not arch/tilegx,
using the existing SRCARCH mechanism in the top-level Makefile.
Changes to existing files:
- <asm/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops_32.h> changed to factor the
include of <asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h> in the common header.
- <asm/compat.h> and arch/tile/kernel/compat.c changed to remove
the "const" markers I had put on compat_sys_execve() when trying
to match some recent similar changes to the non-compat execve.
It turns out the compat version wasn't "upgraded" to use const.
- <asm/opcode-tile_64.h> and <asm/opcode_constants_64.h> were
previously included accidentally, with the 32-bit contents. Now
they have the proper 64-bit contents.
Finally, I had to hack the existing hacky drivers/input/input-compat.h
to add yet another "#ifdef" for INPUT_COMPAT_TEST (same as x86_64).

According to Documentation/Changes, the kernel should be buildable with
GNU make 3.80+. Commit 88d7be031f (kbuild:
Use a single clean rule for kernel and external modules) introduced the
"$(or" construct, which requires make 3.81. This causes "make clean" to
malfunction when it is used with external modules.
Replace "$(or" with an equivalent "$(if" expression, to restore backward
compatibility.

Starting with 4.4, gcc will happily accept -Wno-<anything> in the
cc-option test and complain later when compiling a file that has some
other warning. This rather unexpected behavior is intentional as per
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR28322, so work around it by testing for support of
the opposite option (without the no-). Introduce a new Makefile function
cc-disable-warning that does this and update two uses of cc-option in
the toplevel Makefile.

There is an increasing amount of header files
shared between individual architectures in asm-generic.
To avoid a lot of dummy wrapper files that just
include the corresponding file in asm-generic provide
some basic support in kbuild for this.
With the following patch an architecture can maintain
a list of files in the file arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/Kbuild
To use a generic file just add:
generic-y += <name-of-header-file.h>
For each file listed kbuild will generate the necessary
wrapper in arch/$(ARCH)/include/generated/asm.
When installing userspace headers a wrapper is likewise created.
The original inspiration for this came from the unicore32
patchset - although a different method is used.
The patch includes several improvements from Arnd Bergmann.
Michael Marek contributed Makefile.asm-generic.
Remis Baima did an intial implementation along to achive
the same - see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/13352/

Building a kernel with "make W=1" produces far too much noise to be
useful.
Divide the warning options in three groups:
W=1 - warnings that may be relevant and does not occur too often
W=2 - warnings that occur quite often but may still be relevant
W=3 - the more obscure warnings, can most likely be ignored
When building the whole kernel, those levels produce:
W=1 - 4859 warnings
W=2 - 1394 warnings
W=3 - 86666 warnings
respectively. Warnings have been counted with Geert's script at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/geert/linux-log/linux-log-summary.pl
Many warnings occur from .h files so fixing one file may have a nice
effect on the total number of warnings.
With these changes I am actually tempted to try W=1 now and then.
Previously there was just too much noise.
Borislav:
- make the W= levels exclusive
- move very noisy and making little sense for the kernel warnings to W=3
- drop -Woverlength-strings due to useless warning message
- copy explanatory text for the different warning levels to 'make help'
- recount warnings per level

At the moment we have the CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS Kconfig switch,
which users can enable or disable while configuring the kernel. This
option is then used by 'make' to determine whether an extra kallsyms
pass is needed or not.
However, this approach is not nice and confusing, and this patch moves
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS from Kconfig to Makefile instead. The
rationale is below.
1. CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is really about the build time, not
run-time. There is no real need for it to be in Kconfig. It is
just an additional work-around which should be used only in rare
cases, when someone breaks kallsyms, so Kbuild/Makefile is much
better place for this option.
2. Grepping CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS shows that many defconfigs have
it enabled, probably not because they try to work-around a kallsyms
bug, but just because the Kconfig help text is confusing and does
not really make it clear that this option should not be used unless
except when kallsyms is broken.
3. And since many people have CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS enabled in
their Kconfig, we do might fail to notice kallsyms bugs in time. E.g.,
many testers use "make allyesconfig" to test builds, which will enable
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS and kallsyms breakage will not be noticed.
To address that, this patch:
1. Kills CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS
2. Changes Makefile so that people can use "make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1"
to enable the extra pass if needed. Additionally, they may define
KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS as an environment variable.
3. By default KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is disabled and if kallsyms has issues,
"make" should print a warning and suggest using KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS

Trivial conflict in fs/eventpoll.c (spelling vs addition)
While changing our build system over to use the headers_install target
as part of our klibc build, the following message started showing up in
our logs:
make[2]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date.
It turns out that the build blindly invokes a recursive make on this
target, which causes make to emit this message when the target is
already up to date. This isn't seen for most targets as the rest of the
build relies primarily on the default target and on PHONY targets when
invoking make recursively.
Silence the above message when building unifdef as part of
headers_install by hiding it behind a new PHONY target called
"build_unifdef" that has an empty recipe.

Add a 'W=1' Makefile switch which adds additional checking per build
object.
The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the
process of writing their code, want to do the occasional
make W=1 [target.o]
and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they
could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various
bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build
process.

build will fail with:

`kernel/config_data.gz'. Stop.
because the kernel/Makefile contains a direct reference to .config.

The config option used by archs to let the build system know that
the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently
called HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD which enables BUILD_C_RECORDMCOUNT. To
be more consistent with the name that all archs may use, it has been
renamed to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT. This will be less confusing since
we are building a C recordmcount and not a mcount_record.
