* kbuild: Add a cache for generated variablesDouglas Anderson2017-11-131-14/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While timing a "no-op" build of the kernel (incrementally building the kernel even though nothing changed) in the Chrome OS build system I found that it was much slower than I expected. Digging into things a bit, I found that quite a bit of the time was spent invoking the C compiler even though we weren't actually building anything. Currently in the Chrome OS build system the C compiler is called through a number of wrappers (one of which is written in python!) and can take upwards of 100 ms to invoke even if we're not doing anything difficult, so these invocations of the compiler were taking a lot of time. Worse the invocations couldn't seem to take advantage of the multiple cores on my system. Certainly it seems like we could make the compiler invocations in the Chrome OS build system faster, but only to a point. Inherently invoking a program as big as a C compiler is a fairly heavy operation. Thus even if we can speed the compiler calls it made sense to track down what was happening. It turned out that all the compiler invocations were coming from usages like this in the kernel's Makefile: KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks,) Due to the way cc-option and similar statements work the above contains an implicit call to the C compiler. ...and due to the fact that we're storing the result in KBUILD_CFLAGS, a simply expanded variable, the call will happen every time the Makefile is parsed, even if there are no users of KBUILD_CFLAGS. Rather than redoing this computation every time, it makes a lot of sense to cache the result of all of the Makefile's compiler calls just like we do when we compile a ".c" file to a ".o" file. Conceptually this is quite a simple idea. ...and since the calls to invoke the compiler and similar tools are centrally located in the Kbuild.include file this doesn't even need to be super invasive. Implementing the cache in a simple-to-use and efficient way is not quite as simple as it first sounds, though. To get maximum speed we really want the cache in a format that make can natively understand and make doesn't really have an ability to load/parse files. ...but make _can_ import other Makefiles, so the solution is to store the cache in Makefile format. This requires coming up with a valid/unique Makefile variable name for each value to be cached, but that's solvable with some cleverness. After this change, we'll automatically create a ".cache.mk" file that will contain our cached variables. We'll load this on each invocation of make and will avoid recomputing anything that's already in our cache. The cache is stored in a format that it shouldn't need any invalidation since anything that might change should affect the "key" and any old cached value won't be used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kbuild bot occasionally reports warnings like: drivers/scsi/pcmcia/aha152x_core.o: warning: objtool: seldo_run()+0x130: unreachable instruction These warnings are always with GCC 4.4.

* | kbuild: rpm-pkg: fix version number handlingMasahiro Yamada2017-09-213-15/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "Release:" field of the spec file is determined based on the .version file. However, the .version file is not copied to the source tar file. So, when we build the kernel from the source package, the UTS_VERSION always indicates #1. This does not match with "rpm -q". The kernel UTS_VERSION and "rpm -q" do not agree for binrpm-pkg, either. Please note the kernel has already been built before the spec file is created. Currently, mkspec invokes mkversion. This script returns an incremented version. So, the "Release:" field of the spec file is greater than the version in the kernel by one. For the source package build (where .version file is missing), we can give KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION=%{release} to the build command. For the binary package build, we can simply read out the .version file because it contains the version number that was used for building the kernel image. We can remove scripts/mkversion because scripts/package/Makefile need not touch the .version file. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

The topic came up in the hallway track at the Plumbers conference this week, so here's a single patch that drops the whole firmware tree. The last firmware update was back in 2013, and all distros have been using linux-firmware instead since at least that year, if not before. The only commits to that directory since 2013 was some kbuild fixups for various build tool issues. So lets finally drop this, we don't need to lug them around in the kernel source tree anymore, especially as no one wants or uses them.

Commit 37d69ee30808 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81") dropped the GNU Make 3.80 support, so we are now allowed to use those make-builtin helpers. This conversion will provide better portability without relying on the pwd command or its location /bin/pwd. I am intentionally using $(realpath ...) instead $(abspath ...) in some places. The difference between the two is $(realpath ...) returns an empty string if the given path does not exist. It is convenient in places where we need to error-out if the makefile fails to create an output directory.

I had changed that function to return the token ID directly rather than a pointer to the token descriptor structure, but that meant that the test for "is this a reserved word" changed from checking the return value against NULL, to checking that it wasn't negative. And while I had converted the main token parser over, I missed the special case of the typeof phrase handling. And since our dependency chain for genksyms does not include the genksyms program itself changing, my kernel rebuild didn't show the problem.

This removal was prompted by Masahiro Yamada sending out a patch that removes all our pre-generated files, and when I tested it, I noticed that the gperf version I have (3.1) apparently generates code that no longer works with out code-base because the function interfaces generated by gperf have changed. We really don't care that much, and the gperf people changed their interfaces in ways that makes it annoying to work with them. Tools that make it hard to use them should not be used, and the kernel is not at all interested in some autoconf mess. So remove the gperf dependency entirely. It turns out that if you ignore the pre-generated files, the use of gperf apparently saved us a whopping fifteen lines of code. It obviously wasn't worth it, considering that the pre-generated files are about 500 lines. I sent this out as a patch about three weeks ago, and got absolutely zero responses. So let's see if anybody notices now that I merge it. Because there might be serious bugs here, but it WorksForMe(tm). * gperf-removal: Remove gperf usage from toolchain

If the initalization function is not part of the same compilation unit, the lack of an assignment operation defeats any analysis the compiler can perform as to whether the variable may be used before having been initialized. This means we may end up passing on such variables uninitialized, resulting in potential information leaks. So extend the existing structleak GCC plugin so it will [optionally] apply to all struct type variables that have their address taken at any point, rather than only to variables of struct types that have a __user annotation.

The ORC unwinder is a lightweight, Linux kernel specific debuginfo implementation, which aims to be DWARF done right for unwinding. Objtool is used to generate the ORC unwinder tables during build, so the data format is flexible and kernel internal: there's no dependency on debuginfo created by an external toolchain. The ORC unwinder is almost two orders of magnitude faster than the (out of tree) DWARF unwinder - which is important for perf call graph profiling. It is also significantly simpler and is coded defensively: there has not been a single ORC related kernel crash so far, even with early versions. (knock on wood!) But the main advantage is that enabling the ORC unwinder allows CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS to be turned off - which speeds up the kernel measurably: With frame pointers disabled, GCC does not have to add frame pointer instrumentation code to every function in the kernel. The kernel's .text size decreases by about 3.2%, resulting in better cache utilization and fewer instructions executed, resulting in a broad kernel-wide speedup. Average speedup of system calls should be roughly in the 1-3% range - measurements by Mel Gorman [1] have shown a speedup of 5-10% for some function execution intense workloads. The main cost of the unwinder is that the unwinder data has to be stored in RAM: the memory cost is 2-4MB of RAM, depending on kernel config - which is a modest cost on modern x86 systems. Given how young the ORC unwinder code is it's not enabled by default - but given the performance advantages the plan is to eventually make it the default unwinder on x86. See Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for more details. - Remove lguest support: its intended role was that of a temporary proof of concept for virtualization, plus its removal will enable the reduction (removal) of the paravirt API as well, so Rusty agreed to its removal.

For more details on why ORC is used instead of DWARF, see Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt - but the short version is that it's a simplified, fundamentally more robust debugninfo data structure, which also allows up to two orders of magnitude faster lookups than the DWARF unwinder - which matters to profiling workloads like perf.

However, the 0-day bot is still reporting some unreachable instruction warnings with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y on GCC 4.6.4. As it turns out, objtool's gcov detection doesn't work with older versions of GCC because they don't create a bunch of symbols with the 'gcov.' prefix like newer versions of GCC do. Move the gcov check out of objtool and instead just create a new '--no-unreachable' flag which can be passed in by the kernel Makefile when CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL is defined. Also rename the 'nofp' variable to 'no_fp' for consistency with the new 'no_unreachable' variable.

Lots of fixes and some new documentation, but nothing all that radical. Perhaps the most interesting change for many is the scripts/sphinx-pre-install tool from Mauro; it will tell you exactly which packages you need to install to get a working docs toolchain on your system. There are two little patches reaching outside of Documentation/; both just tweak kerneldoc comments to eliminate warnings and fix some dangling doc pointers" * 'docs-next' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (52 commits) Documentation/sphinx: fix kernel-doc decode for non-utf-8 locale genalloc: Fix an incorrect kerneldoc comment doc: Add documentation for the genalloc subsystem assoc_array: fix path to assoc_array documentation kernel-doc parser mishandles declarations split into lines docs: ReSTify table of contents in core.rst docs: process: drop git snapshots from applying-patches.rst Documentation:input: fix typo swap: Remove obsolete sentence sphinx.rst: Allow Sphinx version 1.6 at the docs docs-rst: fix verbatim font size on tables Documentation: stable-kernel-rules: fix broken git urls rtmutex: update rt-mutex rtmutex: update rt-mutex-design docs: fix minimal sphinx version in conf.py docs: fix nested numbering in the TOC NVMEM documentation fix: A minor typo docs-rst: pdf: use same vertical margin on all Sphinx versions doc: Makefile: if sphinx is not found, run a check script docs: Fix paths in security/keys ...
