ed58c0e9ee gcc-plugins: abort builds cleanly when not supported
When the compiler doesn't support gcc plugins (either due to missing
headers or too old a version), report the problem and abort the build
instead of emitting a warning and letting the build founder with arcane
compiler errors.

377ccbb483 Makefile: Mute warning for __builtin_return_address(>0) for tracing only
With the latest gcc compilers, they give a warning if
__builtin_return_address() parameter is greater than 0. That is because if
it is used by a function called by a top level function (or in the case of
the kernel, by assembly), it can try to access stack frames outside the
stack and crash the system.

The tracing system uses __builtin_return_address() of up to 2! But it is
well aware of the dangers that it may have, and has even added precautions
to protect against it (see the thunk code in arch/x86/entry/thunk*.S)

Linus originally added KBUILD_CFLAGS that would suppress the warning for the
entire kernel, as simply adding KBUILD_CFLAGS to the tracing directory
wouldn't work. The tracing directory plays a bit with the CFLAGS and
requires a little more logic.

This adds that special logic to only suppress the warning for the tracing
directory. If it is used anywhere else outside of tracing, the warning will
still be triggered.

124a3d88fa Disable "frame-address" warning
Newer versions of gcc warn about the use of __builtin_return_address()
with a non-zero argument when "-Wall" is specified:

  kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function ‘stop_critical_timings’:
  kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:433:86: warning: calling ‘__builtin_return_address’ with a nonzero argument is unsafe [-Wframe-address]
     stop_critical_timing(CALLER_ADDR0, CALLER_ADDR1);
  [ .. repeats a few times for other similar cases .. ]

It is true that a non-zero argument is somewhat dangerous, and we do not
actually have very many uses of that in the kernel - but the ftrace code
does use it, and as Stephen Rostedt says:

 "We are well aware of the danger of using __builtin_return_address() of
  > 0.  In fact that's part of the reason for having the "thunk" code in
  x86 (See arch/x86/entry/thunk_{64,32}.S).  [..] it adds extra frames
  when tracking irqs off sections, to prevent __builtin_return_address()
  from accessing bad areas.  In fact the thunk_32.S states: 'Trampoline to
  trace irqs off.  (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)'."

For now, __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument is the best
we can do, and the warning is not helpful and can end up making people
miss other warnings for real problems.

So disable the frame-address warning on compilers that need it.

6e8d666e92 Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning globally
Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because
it generates a lot of false positives.  But some had not, and it was
still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example.

Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a
false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough)
that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the
noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized.

The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning
that causes more problems than the warning can solve.

If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to
re-enable this warning.  But as is, we're better off without it, and I
want to be able to see the *real* warnings.

c965b105bf kbuild: abort build on bad stack protector flag
Before, the stack protector flag was sanity checked before .config had
been reprocessed.  This meant the build couldn't be aborted early, and
only a warning could be emitted followed later by the compiler blowing
up with an unknown flag.  This has caused a lot of confusion over time,
so this splits the flag selection from sanity checking and performs the
sanity checking after the make has been restarted from a reprocessed
.config, so builds can be aborted as early as possible now.

Additionally moves the x86-specific sanity check to the same location,
since it suffered from the same warn-then-wait-for-compiler-failure
problem.

0f776dc377 Some big changes this month, headlined by the addition of a new formatted
documentation mechanism based on the Sphinx system.  The objectives here
 are to make it easier to create better-integrated (and more attractive)
 documents while (eventually) dumping our one-of-a-kind, cobbled-together
 system for something that is widely used and maintained by others.  There's
 a fair amount of information what's being done, why, and how to use it in:
 
   https://lwn.net/Articles/692704/
   https://lwn.net/Articles/692705/
 
 Closer to home, Documentation/kernel-documentation.rst describes how it
 works.
 
 For now, the new system exists alongside the old one; you should soon see
 the GPU documentation converted over in the DRM pull and some significant
 media conversion work as well.  Once all the docs have been moved over and
 we're convinced that the rough edges (of which are are a few) have been
 smoothed over, the DocBook-based stuff should go away.
 
 Primary credit is to Jani Nikula for doing the heavy lifting to make this
 stuff actually work; there has also been notable effort from Markus Heiser,
 Daniel Vetter, and Mauro Carvalho Chehab.
 
 Expect a couple of conflicts on the new index.rst file over the course of
 the merge window; they are trivially resolvable.  That file may be a bit of
 a conflict magnet in the short term, but I don't expect that situation to
 last for any real length of time.
 
 Beyond that, of course, we have the usual collection of tweaks, updates,
 and typo fixes.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "With over 300 commits it's been a busy cycle - with most of the work
  concentrated on the tooling side (as it should).

  The main kernel side enhancements were:

   - Add per event callchain limit: Recently we introduced a sysctl to
     tune the max-stack for all events for which callchains were
     requested:

       $ sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_stack
       kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127

     Now this patch introduces a way to configure this per event, i.e.
     this becomes possible:

       $ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a

     allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use.

     This uses an u16 from the reserved space at the end, leaving
     another u16 for future use.

     There has been interest in even finer tuning, namely to control the
     max stack for kernel and userspace callchains separately.  Further
     discussion is needed, we may for instance use the remaining u16 for
     that and when it is present, assume that the sample_max_stack
     introduced in this patch applies for the kernel, and the u16 left
     is used for limiting the userspace callchain (Arnaldo Carvalho de
     Melo)

   - Optimize AUX event (hardware assisted side-band event) delivery
     (Kan Liang)

   - Rework Intel family name macro usage (this is partially x86 arch
     work) (Dave Hansen)

   - Refine and fix Intel LBR support (David Carrillo-Cisneros)

   - Add support for Intel 'TopDown' events (Andi Kleen)

   - Intel uncore PMU driver fixes and enhancements (Kan Liang)

   - ... other misc changes.

  Here's an incomplete list of the tooling enhancements (but there's
  much more, see the shortlog and the git log for details):

   - Support cross unwinding, i.e.  collecting '--call-graph dwarf'
     perf.data files in one machine and then doing analysis in another
     machine of a different hardware architecture.  This enables, for
     instance, to do:

       $ perf record -a --call-graph dwarf

     on a x86-32 or aarch64 system and then do 'perf report' on it on a
     x86_64 workstation (He Kuang)

   - Allow reading from a backward ring buffer (one setup via
     sys_perf_event_open() with perf_event_attr.write_backward = 1)
     (Wang Nan)

   - Finish merging initial SDT (Statically Defined Traces) support, see
     cset comments for details about how it all works (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - Support attaching eBPF programs to tracepoints (Wang Nan)

   - Add demangling of symbols in programs written in the Rust language
     (David Tolnay)

   - Add support for tracepoints in the python binding, including an
     example, that sets up and parses sched:sched_switch events,
     tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py (Jiri Olsa)

   - Introduce --stdio-color to set up the color output mode selection
     in 'annotate' and 'report', allowing emit color escape sequences
     when redirecting the output of these tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de
     Melo)

   - Add 'callindent' option to 'perf script -F', to indent the Intel PT
     call stack, making this output more ftrace-like (Adrian Hunter,
     Andi Kleen)

   - Allow dumping the object files generated by llvm when processing
     eBPF scriptlet events (Wang Nan)

   - Add stackcollapse.py script to help generating flame graphs (Paolo
     Bonzini)

   - Add --ldlat option to 'perf mem' to specify load latency for loads
     event (e.g. cpu/mem-loads/ ) (Jiri Olsa)

   - Tooling support for Intel TopDown counters, recently added to the
     kernel (Andi Kleen)"

ddea05fa14 kbuild: make samples depend on headers_install
Olof's build test setup keeps failing to compile arm64 kernels
because of a toolchain that uses outdated kernel headers:

/work/build/batch/samples/seccomp/bpf-fancy.c:13:27: fatal error: linux/seccomp.h: No such file or directory

This is of course something he could change, but it also indicates
that others may run into the same problem. Running 'make headers_install'
avoids the issue by ensuring that the kernel headers are put into
the $(objdir)/usr/include path before we build the samples.

The same problem happened for the Documentation build in the
past and was fixed up with commit 8e2faea877 ("Make Documenation
depend on headers_install"). This adds an identical Makefile dependency
for the samples/ subdirectory.

3308b28569 Kbuild: always prefix objtree in LINUXINCLUDE
When $(LINUXINCLUDE) is added to the cflags of a target that
normall doesn't have it (e.g. HOSTCFLAGS), each entry in the
list is expanded so that we search both $(objtree) and $(srctree),
which is a bit silly, as we already know which of the two we
want for each entry in LINUXINCLUDE.

Also, a follow-up patch changes the behavior so we only look in
$(srctree) for manually added include path, and that breaks finding
the generated headers.

This adds an explicit $(objtree) for each tree that we want to
look for generated files.

dc33db7c33 Kbuild: avoid duplicate include path
arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated/uapi is included twice in the
header search path, which is unnecessary, so this changes the
top-level Makefile to drop the second instance by filtering out
everything from USERINCLUDE that was already part of LINUXINCLUDE.

This should have very little effect other than making the 'make V=1'
output slightly smaller and making the build time faster by a miniscule
amount, but it seems to be cleaner.

b36fad65d6 kbuild: Initialize exported variables
The NOSTDINC_FLAGS variable is exported, so it needs to be cleared to
avoid duplicating its content when running make from within make (e.g.
in the packaging targets). This became an issue after commit
9c8fa9bc08 ("kbuild: fix if_change and friends to consider argument
order"), which no longer ignores the duplicate options. As Paulo Zanoni
points out, the LDFLAGS_vmlinux variable has the same problem.

This plugin is a helper plugin for the kcov feature. It supports
all gcc versions with plugin support (from gcc-4.5 on).
It is based on the gcc commit "Add fuzzing coverage support" by Dmitry Vyukov

6b90bd4ba4 GCC plugin infrastructure
This patch allows to build the whole kernel with GCC plugins. It was ported from
grsecurity/PaX. The infrastructure supports building out-of-tree modules and
building in a separate directory. Cross-compilation is supported too.
Currently the x86, arm, arm64 and uml architectures enable plugins.

The directory of the gcc plugins is scripts/gcc-plugins. You can use a file or a directory
there. The plugins compile with these options:
 * -fno-rtti: gcc is compiled with this option so the plugins must use it too
 * -fno-exceptions: this is inherited from gcc too
 * -fasynchronous-unwind-tables: this is inherited from gcc too
 * -ggdb: it is useful for debugging a plugin (better backtrace on internal
    errors)
 * -Wno-narrowing: to suppress warnings from gcc headers (ipa-utils.h)
 * -Wno-unused-variable: to suppress warnings from gcc headers (gcc_version
    variable, plugin-version.h)

The infrastructure introduces a new Makefile target called gcc-plugins. It
supports all gcc versions from 4.5 to 6.0. The scripts/gcc-plugin.sh script
chooses the proper host compiler (gcc-4.7 can be built by either gcc or g++).
This script also checks the availability of the included headers in
scripts/gcc-plugins/gcc-common.h.

The gcc-common.h header contains frequently included headers for GCC plugins
and it has a compatibility layer for the supported gcc versions.

The gcc-generate-*-pass.h headers automatically generate the registration
structures for GIMPLE, SIMPLE_IPA, IPA and RTL passes.

Note that 'make clean' keeps the *.so files (only the distclean or mrproper
targets clean all) because they are needed for out-of-tree modules.

Based on work created by the PaX Team.

22cba31bae Documentation/sphinx: add basic working Sphinx configuration and build
Add basic configuration and makefile to build documentation from any
.rst files under Documentation using Sphinx. For starters, there's just
the placeholder index.rst.

At the top level Makefile, hook Sphinx documentation targets alongside
(but independent of) the DocBook toolchain, having both be run on the
various 'make *docs' targets.

All Sphinx processing is placed into Documentation/Makefile.sphinx. Both
that and the Documentation/DocBook/Makefile are now expected to handle
all the documentation targets, explicitly ignoring them if they're not
relevant for that particular toolchain. The changes to the existing
DocBook Makefile are kept minimal.

There is graceful handling of missing Sphinx and rst2pdf (which is
needed for pdf output) by checking for the tool and python module,
respectively, with informative messages to the user.

If the Read the Docs theme (sphinx_rtd_theme) is available, use it, but
otherwise gracefully fall back to the Sphinx default theme, with an
informative message to the user, and slightly less pretty HTML output.

Sphinx can now handle htmldocs, pdfdocs (if rst2pdf is available),
epubdocs and xmldocs targets. The output documents are written into per
output type subdirectories under Documentation/output.

Finally, you can pass options to sphinx-build using the SPHINXBUILD make
variable. For example, 'make SPHINXOPTS=-v htmldocs' for more verbose
output from Sphinx.

This is based on the original work by Jonathan Corbet, but he probably
wouldn't recognize this as his own anymore.

c9c6837d39 kbuild: move -Wunused-const-variable to W=1 warning level
gcc-6 started warning by default about variables that are not
used anywhere and that are marked 'const', generating many
false positives in an allmodconfig build, e.g.:

arch/arm/mach-davinci/board-da830-evm.c:282:20: warning: 'da830_evm_emif25_pins' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
arch/arm/plat-omap/dmtimer.c:958:34: warning: 'omap_timer_match' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcm.c:625:39: warning: 'acpi_bcm_default_gpios' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:92:18: warning: 'reg_map_omap4' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/devfreq/exynos/exynos5_bus.c:381:32: warning: 'exynos5_busfreq_int_pm' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/dma/mv_xor.c:1139:34: warning: 'mv_xor_dt_ids' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]

This is similar to the existing -Wunused-but-set-variable warning
that was added in an earlier release and that we disable by default
now and only enable when W=1 is set, so it makes sense to do
the same here. Once we have eliminated the majority of the
warnings for both, we can put them back into the default list.

We probably want this in backport kernels as well, to allow building
them with gcc-6 without introducing extra warnings.

e72e2dfe7c gcov: disable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning
When gcov profiling is enabled, we see a lot of spurious warnings about
possibly uninitialized variables being used:

arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c: In function 'arm_coherent_iommu_map_page':
arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:1085:16: warning: 'start' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
drivers/clk/st/clk-flexgen.c: In function 'st_of_flexgen_setup':

kernel/cgroup.c: In function 'cgroup_mount':
kernel/cgroup.c:2119:11: warning: 'root' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

All of these are false positives, so it seems better to just disable
the warnings whenever GCOV is enabled. Most users don't enable GCOV,
and based on a prior patch, it is now also disabled for 'allmodconfig'
builds, so there should be no downsides of doing this.

c87bf43144 gcov: disable tree-loop-im to reduce stack usage
Enabling CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL produces us a lot of warnings like

lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.c: In function 'lz4_compresshcctx':
lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.c:514:1: warning: the frame size of 1504 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

After some investigation, I found that this behavior started with gcc-4.9,
and opened https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69702.
A suggested workaround for it is to use the -fno-tree-loop-im
flag that turns off one of the optimization stages in gcc, so the
code runs a little slower but does not use excessive amounts
of stack.

We could make this conditional on the gcc version, but I could not
find an easy way to do this in Kbuild and the benefit would be
fairly small, given that most of the gcc version in production are
affected now.

I'm marking this for 'stable' backports because it addresses a bug
with code generation in gcc that exists in all kernel versions
with the affected gcc releases.

815eb71e71 Kbuild: disable 'maybe-uninitialized' warning for CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES
CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES confuses gcc-5.x to the degree that it prints
incorrect warnings about a lot of variables that it thinks can be used
uninitialized, e.g.:

i2c/busses/i2c-diolan-u2c.c: In function 'diolan_usb_xfer':
i2c/busses/i2c-diolan-u2c.c:391:16: warning: 'byte' may be used uninitialized in this function
iio/gyro/itg3200_core.c: In function 'itg3200_probe':
iio/gyro/itg3200_core.c:213:6: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function
leds/leds-lp55xx-common.c: In function 'lp55xx_update_bits':
leds/leds-lp55xx-common.c:350:6: warning: 'tmp' may be used uninitialized in this function
misc/bmp085.c: In function 'show_pressure':
misc/bmp085.c:363:10: warning: 'pressure' may be used uninitialized in this function
power/ds2782_battery.c: In function 'ds2786_get_capacity':
power/ds2782_battery.c:214:17: warning: 'raw' may be used uninitialized in this function

These are all false positives that either rob someone's time when trying
to figure out whether they are real, or they get people to send wrong
patches to shut up the warnings.

Nobody normally wants to run a CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES kernel in
production, so disabling the whole class of warnings for this configuration
has no serious downsides either.
