Older versions of GCC (pre 3.0) may not support this option, added in 2000, but it's unlikely they can still compile a working kernel.

* | x86/build: convert function graph '-Os' error to warningJosh Poimboeuf2017-04-191-0/+8
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For pre-4.6.0 versions of GCC, which don't have '-mfentry', the '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' option is required for function graph tracing in order to avoid GCC bug 42109. However, GCC ignores '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' when '-Os' is also set. Currently we force a build error to prevent that scenario, but that breaks randconfigs. So change the error to a warning which also disables CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

* x86/build: Mostly disable '-maccumulate-outgoing-args'Josh Poimboeuf2017-03-301-4/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GCC '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' flag is enabled for most configs, mostly because of issues which are no longer relevant. For most configs, and with most recent versions of GCC, it's no longer needed. Clarify which cases need it, and only enable it for those cases. Also produce a compile-time error for the ftrace graph + mcount + '-Os' case, which will otherwise cause runtime failures. The main benefit of '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' is that it prevents an ugly prologue for functions which have aligned stacks. But removing the option also has some benefits: more readable argument saves, smaller text size, and (presumably) slightly improved performance. Here are the object size savings for 32-bit and 64-bit defconfig kernels: text data bss dec hex filename 10006710 3543328 1773568 15323606 e9d1d6 vmlinux.x86-32.before 9706358 3547424 1773568 15027350 e54c96 vmlinux.x86-32.after text data bss dec hex filename 10652105 4537576 843776 16033457 f4a6b1 vmlinux.x86-64.before 10639629 4537576 843776 16020981 f475f5 vmlinux.x86-64.after That comes out to a 3% text size improvement on x86-32 and a 0.1% text size improvement on x86-64.

* kbuild: abort build on bad stack protector flagKees Cook2016-07-261-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* x86/rtc: Replace paravirt rtc check with platform legacy quirkLuis R. Rodriguez2016-04-221-0/+1

This deals with the RTC quirks which we can rely on through the hardware subarch, the ACPI check can be dealt with separately. For Xen things are bit more complex given that the @X86_SUBARCH_XEN x86_hardware_subarch is shared on for Xen which uses the PV path for both domU and dom0. Since the semantics for differentiating between the two are Xen specific we provide a platform helper to help override default legacy features -- x86_platform.set_legacy_features(). Use of this helper is highly discouraged, its only purpose should be to account for the lack of semantics available within your given x86_hardware_subarch. As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as follows: TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks() +70 +62 +62 +43 Only 8 bytes overhead total, as the main increase in size is all removed via __init.

* x86/debug: Remove perpetually broken, unmaintainable dwarf annotationsIngo Molnar2015-06-021-8/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So the dwarf2 annotations in low level assembly code have become an increasing hindrance: unreadable, messy macros mixed into some of the most security sensitive code paths of the Linux kernel. These debug info annotations don't even buy the upstream kernel anything: dwarf driven stack unwinding has caused problems in the past so it's out of tree, and the upstream kernel only uses the much more robust framepointers based stack unwinding method. In addition to that there's a steady, slow bitrot going on with these annotations, requiring frequent fixups. There's no tooling and no functionality upstream that keeps it correct. So burn down the sick forest, allowing new, healthier growth: 27 files changed, 350 insertions(+), 1101 deletions(-) Someone who has the willingness and time to do this properly can attempt to reintroduce dwarf debuginfo in x86 assembly code plus dwarf unwinding from first principles, with the following conditions: - it should be maximally readable, and maximally low-key to 'ordinary' code reading and maintenance. - find a build time method to insert dwarf annotations automatically in the most common cases, for pop/push instructions that manipulate the stack pointer. This could be done for example via a preprocessing step that just looks for common patterns - plus special annotations for the few cases where we want to depart from the default. We have hundreds of CFI annotations, so automating most of that makes sense. - it should come with build tooling checks that ensure that CFI annotations are sensible. We've seen such efforts from the framepointer side, and there's no reason it couldn't be done on the dwarf side.

The x86 decoder bandwidth and caching arguments laid out in: be6cb02779ca ("x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundaries") apply to loop alignment as well. Furtermore, modern CPU uarchs have a loop cache/buffer that is a L0 cache before even any uop cache, covering a few dozen most recently executed instructions. This loop cache generally does not have the 16-byte alignment restrictions of the uop cache. Now loop alignment can still be beneficial if: - a loop is cache-hot and its surroundings are not. - if the loop is so cache hot that the instruction flow becomes x86 decoder bandwidth limited But loop alignment is harmful if: - a loop is cache-cold - a loop's surroundings are cache-hot as well - two cache-hot loops are close to each other - if the loop fits into the loop cache - if the code flow is not decoder bandwidth limited and I'd argue that the latter five scenarios are much more common in the kernel, as our hottest loops are typically: - pointer chasing: this should fit into the loop cache in most cases and is typically data cache and address generation limited - generic memory ops (memset, memcpy, etc.): these generally fit into the loop cache as well, and are likewise data cache limited. So this patch packs loop addresses tightly as well.

* x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundariesIngo Molnar2015-05-151-0/+3

I realize that x86 CPU manufacturers recommend 16-byte jump target alignments (it's in the Intel optimization manual), to help their relatively narrow decoder prefetch alignment and uop cache constraints, but the cost of that is very significant: text data bss dec filename 12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte 12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte By using 1-byte jump target alignment (i.e. no alignment at all) we get an almost 3% reduction in kernel size (!) - and a probably similar reduction in I$ footprint. Now, the usual justification for jump target alignment is the following: - modern decoders tend to have 16-byte (effective) decoder prefetch windows. (AMD documents it higher but measurements suggest the effective prefetch window on curretn uarchs is still around 16 bytes) - on Intel there's also the uop-cache with cachelines that have 16-byte granularity and limited associativity. - older x86 uarchs had a penalty for decoder fetches that crossed 16-byte boundaries. These limits are mostly gone from recent uarchs. So if a forward jump target is aligned to cacheline boundary then prefetches will start from a new prefetch-cacheline and there's higher chance for decoding in fewer steps and packing tightly. But I think that argument is flawed for typical optimized kernel code flows: forward jumps often go to 'cold' (uncommon) pieces of code, and aligning cold code to cache lines does not bring a lot of advantages (they are uncommon), while it causes collateral damage: - their alignment 'spreads out' the cache footprint, it shifts followup hot code further out - plus it slows down even 'cold' code that immediately follows 'hot' code (like in the above case), which could have benefited from the partial cacheline that comes off the end of hot code. But even in the cache-hot case the 16 byte alignment brings disadvantages: - it spreads out the cache footprint, possibly making the code fall out of the L1 I$. - On Intel CPUs, recent microarchitectures have plenty of uop cache (typically doubling every 3 years) - while the size of the L1 cache grows much less aggressively. So workloads are rarely uop cache limited. The only situation where alignment might matter are tight loops that could fit into a single 16 byte chunk - but those are pretty rare in the kernel: if they exist they tend to be pointer chasing or generic memory ops, which both tend to be cache miss (or cache allocation) intensive and are not decoder bandwidth limited. So the balance of arguments strongly favors packing kernel instructions tightly versus maximizing for decoder bandwidth: this patch changes the jump target alignment from 16 bytes to 1 byte (tightly packed, unaligned).

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 5 added a compiler option, -mskip-rax-setup, for x86-64. It skips setting up the RAX register when SSE is disabled and there are no variable arguments passed in vector registers. (According to the x86_64 ABI, %al is used as a hidden register containing the number of vector registers used). Since the kernel doesn't pass vector registers to functions with variable arguments, this option can be used to optimize the x86-64 kernel.

But new syscall also compiles purgatory code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large. This option seems to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards. Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break existing users of old gcc. Those who wish to enable new functionality will require new gcc. Having said that, I am trying to figure out how can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while. I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config option. As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used. This new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y. And all other arches had to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC. Now with introduction of new config option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches. Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64. So whereever I had CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that. For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to "depends on CRYPTO=y". This should be safer as "select" is not recursive. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: H.

So keep it separate from rest of the kernel and in long term we will have to practically do no maintenance of this code. This code also has the logic to do verify sha256 hashes of various segments which have been loaded into memory. So first we verify that the kernel we are jumping to is fine and has not been corrupted and make progress only if checsums are verified.

We're using -mno-fp-ret-in-387 in addition to -mno-80387 (which is == -msoft-float) because, as the gcc manpage says: On machines where a function returns floating-point results in the 80387 register stack, some floating-point opcodes may be emitted even if -msoft-float is used. so we want to turn off *all* non-integer instructions involving any architectural FPU state, unless it is absolutely necessary (and those cases need special handling anyway).

Both have been tested to produce booting kernels when the 16-bit code is built with -m16. (Modulo LLVM PR3997, at least.)

* x86, build: Pass in additional -mno-mmx, -mno-sse optionsH. Peter Anvin2013-12-091-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In checkin 5551a34e5aea x86-64, build: Always pass in -mno-sse we unconditionally added -mno-sse to the main build, to keep newer compilers from generating SSE instructions from autovectorization. However, this did not extend to the special environments (arch/x86/boot, arch/x86/boot/compressed, and arch/x86/realmode/rm). Add -mno-sse to the compiler command line for these environments, and add -mno-mmx to all the environments as well, as we don't want a compiler to generate MMX code either. This patch also removes a $(cc-option) call for -m32, since we have long since stopped supporting compilers too old for the -m32 option, and in fact hardcode it in other places in the Makefiles.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Always pass in the -mno-sse argument, regardless if -preferred-stack-boundary is supported. We never want to generate SSE instructions in the kernel unless we *really* know what we're doing. According to H. J. Lu, any version of gcc new enough that we support it at all should handle the -mno-sse option, so just add it unconditionally. Reported-by: Kevin B. Smith <kevin.b.smith@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H.

* x86, relocs: Move ELF relocation handling to CKees Cook2013-08-071-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moves the relocation handling into C, after decompression. This requires that the decompressed size is passed to the decompression routine as well so that relocations can be found. Only kernels that need relocation support will use the code (currently just x86_32), but this is laying the ground work for 64-bit using it in support of KASLR. Based on work by Neill Clift and Michael Davidson.
