a02f057 [PATCH] kconfig: improve error handling in the parser
1da177e Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Last one is the initial Git commit, where menu_end_entry() is empty as
well. I couldn't find anything that redefined it on Google either.
It might be a debugging helper for setting a breakpoint after each
config, menuconfig, and comment is parsed. IMO it hurts more than it
helps in that case by making the parsing code look more complicated at a
glance than it really is, and I suspect it doesn't get used much.
Tested by running the Kconfiglib test suite, which indirectly verifies
that the .config files generated by the C implementation for each
defconfig file in the kernel stays the same.

Many of these functions are quite the head scratchers if you don't know
what they're trying to do. Document them.
Also make it clear which functions rewrite expressions in-place and
which return new expressions. This prevents memory errors.

When propagating dependencies from parents after parsing, an expression
node is allocated if the parent symbol is a 'choice'. This node was
never freed.
Outline of leak:
if (sym && sym_is_choice(sym)) {
...
*Allocate (in this case only)*
parentdep = expr_alloc_symbol(sym);
} else if (parent->prompt)
parentdep = parent->prompt->visible.expr;
else
parentdep = parent->dep;
for (menu = parent->list; menu; menu = menu->next) {
...
*Copy*
basedep = expr_alloc_and(expr_copy(parentdep), basedep);
...
}
*parentdep lost if the parent is a choice!*
Fix by freeing 'parentdep' after the loop if the parent symbol is a
choice. Note that this only frees the expression node and not the choice
symbol itself.

If a 'mainmenu' entry appeared in the Kconfig files, two things would
leak:
- The 'struct property' allocated for the default "Linux Kernel
Configuration" prompt.
- The string for the T_WORD/T_WORD_QUOTE prompt after the
T_MAINMENU token, allocated on the heap in zconf.l.
To fix it, introduce a new 'no_mainmenu_stmt' nonterminal that matches
if there's no 'mainmenu' and adds the default prompt. That means the
prompt only gets allocated once regardless of whether there's a
'mainmenu' statement or not, and managing it becomes simple.

The 'source_stmt' nonterminal takes a 'prompt', which consists of either
a T_WORD or a T_WORD_QUOTE, both of which are always allocated on the
heap in zconf.l and need to have their associated strings freed. Free
them.
The existing code already makes sure to always copy the string, but add
a warning to sym_expand_string_value() to make it clear that the string
must be copied, just in case.

Prior to this fix, zconf.y did not free symbol names from zconf.l in
these contexts:
- After T_CONFIG ('config LEAKED')
- After T_MENUCONFIG ('menuconfig LEAKED')
- After T_SELECT ('select LEAKED')
- After T_IMPLY ('imply LEAKED')
- After T_DEFAULT in a choice ('default LEAKED')
All of these come in the form of T_WORD tokens, which always have their
associated string allocated on the heap in zconf.l and need to be freed.
Fix by introducing a new nonterminal 'nonconst_symbol' which takes a
T_WORD, fetches the symbol, and then frees the T_WORD string. The
already existing 'symbol' nonterminal works the same way but also
accepts T_WORD_QUOTE, corresponding to a constant symbol. T_WORD_QUOTE
should not be accepted in any of the contexts above, so the 'symbol'
nonterminal can't be reused here.
Fetching the symbol in 'nonconst_symbol' also removes a bunch of
sym_lookup() calls from actions.

zconf.lex.c is generated by flex, zconf.tab.c by bison. Instead of
running flex and bison during the kernel building, we conventionally
version-control those artifacts with _shipped suffix.
It is tedious to manually regenerate them every time we change the
real sources, zconf.l and zconf.y.
Remove the _shipped files and switch over to build-time generation
of the intermediate C files.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
In Linux build system convention, pre-generated files are version-
controlled with a "_shipped" suffix. During the kernel building,
they are simply shipped (copied) removing the suffix.
This approach can reduce external tool dependency for the kernel build,
but it is tedious to manually regenerate such artifacts from developers'
point of view. (We need to do "make REGENERATE_PARSERS=1" every time
we touch real source files such as *.l, *.y)
Some months ago, I sent out RFC patches to run flex, bison, and gperf
during the build.
In the review and test, Linus noticed gperf-3.1 had changed the lookup
function prototype. Then, the use of gperf in kernel was entirely
removed by commit bb3290d916 ("Remove gperf usage from toolchain").
This time, I tested several versions of flex and bison, and I was not
hit by any compatibility issue except a flaw in flex-2.6.3; if you
generate lexer for dtc and genksyms with flex-2.6.3, you will see
"yywrap redefined" warning. This was not intentional, but a bug,
fixed by flex-2.6.4. Otherwise, both flex and bison look fairly
stable for a long time.
This commit prepares some build rules to remove the _shipped files.
Also, document minimal requirement for flex and bison.
Rationale for the minimal version:
The -Wmissing-prototypes option of GCC warns "no previous prototype"
for lexers generated by flex-2.5.34 or older, so I chose 2.5.35 as the
required version for flex. Flex-2.5.35 was released in 2008. Bison
looks more stable. I did not see any problem with bison-2.0, released
in 2004. I did not test bison-1.x, but bison-2.0 should be old enough.
Tested flex versions:
2.5.35
2.5.36
2.5.37
2.5.39
2.6.0
2.6.1
2.6.2

Commit 1c199f2878 ("kbuild: document recursive dependency limitation
/ resolution") probably intended to show a hint along with "recursive
dependency detected!" error, but it missed to add {...} guard, and the
hint is displayed in every loop of the dep_stack traverse, annoyingly.
This error was detected by GCC's -Wmisleading-indentation when switching
to build-time generation of lexer/parser.
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c: In function ‘sym_check_print_recursive’:
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:1150:3: warning: this ‘if’ clause does not guard... [-Wmisleading-indentation]

fprintf(stderr, "For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt\n");
^~~~~~~
I could simply add {...} to surround the three fprintf(), but I rather
chose to move the hint after the loop to make the whole message readable.

Kconfig currently doesn't handle 'm' appearing in a Kconfig file before
the modules symbol is defined (the symbol with 'option modules'). The
problem is the following code, which runs during parsing:
/* change 'm' into 'm' && MODULES */
if (e->left.sym == &symbol_mod)
return expr_alloc_and(e, expr_alloc_symbol(modules_sym));
If the modules symbol has not yet been defined, modules_sym is NULL,
giving an invalid expression.
Here is a test file where both BEFORE_1 and BEFORE_2 trigger a segfault.
If the modules symbol is removed, all symbols trigger segfaults.
config BEFORE_1
def_tristate y if m
if m
config BEFORE_2
def_tristate y
endif
config MODULES
def_bool y
option modules
config AFTER_1
def_tristate y if m
if m
config AFTER_2
def_tristate y
endif
Fix the issue by rewriting 'm' in menu_finalize() instead. This function
runs after parsing and is the proper place to do it. The following
existing code in conf_parse() in zconf.y ensures that the modules symbol
exists at that point:
if (!modules_sym)
modules_sym = sym_find( "n" );
...
menu_finalize(&rootmenu);
The following tests were done to ensure no functional changes for
configurations that don't reference 'm' before the modules symbol:
- zconfdump(stdout) was run with ARCH=x86 and ARCH=arm before
and after the change and verified to produce identical output.
This function prints all symbols, choices, and menus together
with their properties and their dependency expressions. A
rewritten 'm' appears as 'm && MODULES'.
A small annoyance is that the assert(len != 0) in xfwrite()
needs to be disabled in order to use zconfdump(), because it
chokes on e.g. 'default ""'.
- The Kconfiglib test suite was run to indirectly verify that
alldefconfig, allyesconfig, allnoconfig, and all defconfigs in
the kernel still generate the same final .config.
- Valgrind was used to check for memory errors and (new) memory
leaks.

This will catch mistakes like in the following real-world example, where
a "CONFIG_" prefix snuck in, making an undefined symbol the default:
choice
prompt "Compiler optimization level"
default CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE
config CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE
...
config CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
...
endchoice
This now prints the following warning:
init/Kconfig:1036:warning: choice default symbol 'CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE' is not contained in the choice
Cases where the default symbol belongs to the wrong choice are also
detected.
(The mistake is harmless here: Since the default symbol is not visible,
the choice falls back on using the first visible symbol as the default,
which is CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE, as intended.)

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A few late-arriving docs updates that have no real reason to wait.
There's a new "Co-Developed-by" tag described by Greg, and a build
enhancement from Willy to generate docs warnings during a kernel build
(but only when additional warnings have been requested in general)"
* tag 'docs-4.15-2' of git://git.lwn.net/linux:
Add optional check for bad kernel-doc comments
Documentation: fix profile= options in kernel-parameters.txt
documentation/svga.txt: update outdated file
kokr/memory-barriers.txt: Fix typo in paring example
kokr/memory-barriers/txt: Replace uses of "transitive"
Documentation/process: add Co-Developed-by: tag for patches with multiple authors

The "rpm" has been kept for backward compatibility since pre-git era.
I am planning to remove it after the Linux 4.18 release. Annouce the
end of the support, prompting to use "rpm-pkg" instead.
If you use "rpm", it will work like "rpm-pkg", but warning messages
will be displayed as follows:
WARNING: "rpm" target will be removed after Linux 4.18
Please use "rpm-pkg" instead.

For rpm-pkg and deb-pkg, a source tar file is created. All paths in
the archive must be prefixed with the base name of the tar so that
everything is contained in the directory when you extract it.
Currently, scripts/package/Makefile uses a symlink for that, and
removes it after the tar is created.
If you terminate the build during the tar creation, the symlink is
left over. Then, at the next package build, you will see a warning
like follows:
ln: '.' and 'kernel-4.14.0+/.' are the same file
It is possible to fix it by adding -n (--no-dereference) option to
the "ln" command, but a cleaner way is to use --transform option
of "tar" command. This option is GNU extension, but it should not
hurt to use it in the Linux build system.
The 'S' flag is needed to exclude symlinks from the path fixup.
Without it, symlinks in the kernel are broken.

The command "make -j8 C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck" produces
lots of "coccicheck failed" error messages.
Julia Lawall explained the Coccinelle behavior as follows:
"The problem on the Coccinelle side is that it uses a subdirectory
with the name of the semantic patch to store standard output and
standard error for the different threads. I didn't want to use a
name with the pid, so that one could easily find this information
while Coccinelle is running. Normally the subdirectory is cleaned
up when Coccinelle completes, so there is only one of them at a time.
Maybe it is best to just add the pid. There is the risk that these
subdirectories will accumulate if Coccinelle crashes in a way such
that they don't get cleaned up, but Coccinelle could print a warning
if it detects this case, rather than failing."
When scripts/coccicheck is used as CHECK tool and -j option is given
to Make, the whole of build process runs in parallel. So, multiple
processes try to get access to the same subdirectory.
I notice spatch creates the subdirectory only when it runs in parallel
(i.e. --jobs <N> is given and <N> is greater than 1).
Setting NPROC=1 is a reasonable solution; spatch does not create the
subdirectory. Besides, ONLINE=1 mode takes a single file input for
each spatch invocation, so there is no reason to parallelize it in
the first place.

Implement a '-none' output mode for kernel-doc which will only output
warning messages, and suppresses the warning message about there being
no kernel-doc in the file.
If the build has requested additional warnings, automatically check all
.c files. This patch does not check .h files. Enabling the warning
by default would add about 1300 warnings, so it's default off for now.
People who care can use this to check they didn't break the docs and
maybe we'll get all the warnings fixed and be able to enable this check
by default in the future.

"obj-y += foo/" syntax requires Kbuild to visit the "foo" subdirectory
and link built-in.o from that directory. This means foo/Makefile is
responsible for creating built-in.o even if there is no object to
link (in this case, built-in.o is an empty archive).
We have had several fixups like commit 4b024242e8 ("kbuild: Fix
linking error built-in.o no such file or directory"), then ended up
with a complex condition as follows:
ifneq ($(strip $(obj-y) $(obj-m) $(obj-) $(subdir-m) $(lib-target)),)
builtin-target := $(obj)/built-in.o
endif
We still have more cases not covered by the above, so we need to add
obj- := dummy.o
in several places just for creating empty built-in.o.
A key point is, the parent Makefile knows whether built-in.o is needed
or not. If a subdirectory needs to create built-in.o, its parent can
tell the fact when descending.
If non-empty $(need-builtin) flag is passed from the parent, built-in.o
should be created. $(obj-y) should be still checked to support the
single target "%/". All of ugly tricks will go away.

now able to cache the result of shell commands. Some variables are
expensive to compute, for example, $(call cc-option,...) invokes the
compiler. It is not efficient to redo this computation every time,
even when we are not actually building anything. Kbuild creates a
hidden file ".cache.mk" that contains invoked shell commands and
their results. The speed-up should be noticeable.
Summary:
- Fix arch build issues (hexagon, sh)
- Clean up various Makefiles and scripts
- Fix wrong usage of {CFLAGS,LDFLAGS}_MODULE in arch Makefiles
- Cache variables that are expensive to compute
- Improve cc-ldopton and ld-option for Clang
