<content type='text'>
Many architectures duplicate similar shell scripts.

Convert x86 and UML to use scripts/syscalltbl.sh. The generic script
generates seperate headers for x86/64 and x86/x32 syscalls, while the x86
specific script coalesced them into one. Adjust the code accordingly.

<title>asm-generic: make more kernel-space headers mandatory</title>

<id>urn:sha1:630f289b7114c0e68519cbd634e2b7ec804ca8c5</id>
<content type='text'>
Change a header to mandatory-y if both of the following are met:

[1] At least one architecture (except um) specifies it as generic-y in
    arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild

[2] Every architecture (except um) either has its own implementation
    (arch/*/include/asm/*.h) or specifies it as generic-y in
    arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild

This commit was generated by the following shell script.

-----------------------------------&gt;8-----------------------------------

arches=$(cd arch; ls -1 | sed -e '/Kconfig/d' -e '/um/d')

tmpfile=$(mktemp)

grep "^mandatory-y +=" include/asm-generic/Kbuild &gt; $tmpfile

find arch -path 'arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild' |
	xargs sed -n 's/^generic-y += \(.*\)/\1/p' | sort -u |
while read header
do
	mandatory=yes

	for arch in $arches
	do
		if ! grep -q "generic-y += $header" arch/$arch/include/asm/Kbuild &amp;&amp;
			! [ -f arch/$arch/include/asm/$header ]; then
			mandatory=no
			break
		fi
	done

	if [ "$mandatory" = yes ]; then
		echo "mandatory-y += $header" &gt;&gt; $tmpfile

		for arch in $arches
		do
			sed -i "/generic-y += $header/d" arch/$arch/include/asm/Kbuild
		done
	fi

done

sed -i '/^mandatory-y +=/d' include/asm-generic/Kbuild

LANG=C sort $tmpfile &gt;&gt; include/asm-generic/Kbuild

-----------------------------------&gt;8-----------------------------------

One obvious benefit is the diff stat:

 25 files changed, 52 insertions(+), 557 deletions(-)

It is tedious to list generic-y for each arch that needs it.

So, mandatory-y works like a fallback default (by just wrapping
asm-generic one) when arch does not have a specific header
implementation.

See the following commits:

def3f7cefe4e81c296090e1722a76551142c227c
a1b39bae16a62ce4aae02d958224f19316d98b24

It is tedious to convert headers one by one, so I processed by a shell
script.

dma-continuguous.h is generic for all architectures except arm32 which has
its own version.

Similar change was done for msi.h by commit a1b39bae16a6
("asm-generic: Make msi.h a mandatory include/asm header")

<title>module: use relative references for __ksymtab entries</title>
<updated>2018-08-22T17:52:47Z</updated>

<published>2018-08-22T04:56:09Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.zx2c4.com/linux-dev/commit/?id=7290d58095712a89f845e1bca05334796dd49ed2'/>
<id>urn:sha1:7290d58095712a89f845e1bca05334796dd49ed2</id>
<content type='text'>
An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries,
each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to
the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively.

When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an
additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte
entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot
time.

Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely
local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL()
itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references
instead.  This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all
64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for
architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64)
or using custom host tools (x86).

Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each
section being sorted by symbol name.  This is implemented based on the
input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch
does not interfere with that.

Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in
the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for
all architectures.  So make it dependent on whether
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

Now that every architecture is using the generic clkdev.h file
and we no longer include asm/clkdev.h anywhere in the tree, we
can remove it.

<id>urn:sha1:b672592f022152155fde7db99aafbcf04a2c3ba5</id>
<content type='text'>
cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:

	* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
	* s390

And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.

A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
remove include/linux/cputime.h .

<title>x86/build: Remove three unneeded genhdr-y entries</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9190e21780dfeff524a67c6e7b806c8a9d496086</id>
<content type='text'>
In x86's include/asm/Kbuild three entries are appended to the genhdr-y make
variable:

    genhdr-y += unistd_32.h
    genhdr-y += unistd_64.h
    genhdr-y += unistd_x32.h

The same entries are also appended to that variable in
include/uapi/asm/Kbuild. So commit:

  10b63956fce7 ("UAPI: Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking")

... removed these three entries from include/asm/Kbuild. But, apparently, some
merge conflict resolution re-added them.

The net effect is, in short, that the genhdr-y make variable contains these
file names twice and, as a consequence, that the corresponding headers get
installed twice. And so the build prints:

  INSTALL usr/include/asm/ (65 files)

... while in reality only 62 files are installed in that directory.

Nothing breaks because of all that, but it's a good idea to finally remove
these unneeded entries nevertheless.

<content type='text'>
Track generated header files which aren't already in genhdr-y, alongside
generic-y wrappers in the */include/generated/[uapi/]asm/ directories.
Currently only x86 generates extra headers in these directories, for the
purposes of enumerating system calls for different ABIs, and xen
hypercalls.

This will allow the asm-generic wrapper handling code to remove stale
wrappers when files are removed from generic-y, without also removing
these headers which are generated separately.
