<title>sparc,x86: vdso: remove meaningless undefining CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING</title>

<id>urn:sha1:12a5b00a5366467e95a25f55da751794e5fe6788</id>
<content type='text'>
The code, #undef CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, is not working as expected
because &lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt; is parsed before vclock_gettime.c since
28128c61e08e ("kconfig.h: Include compiler types to avoid missed struct
attributes").

Since then, &lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt; is included really early by using the
'-include' option.  So, you cannot negate the decision of
&lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt; in this way.

You can confirm it by checking the pre-processed code, like this:

  $ make arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.i

There is no difference with/without CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

It is about two years since 28128c61e08e.  Nobody has reported a problem
(or, nobody has even noticed the fact that this code is not working).

It is ugly and unreliable to attempt to undefine a CONFIG option from C
files, and anyway the inlining heuristic is up to the compiler.

Just remove the broken code.

Pull x86 entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Convert the 32bit syscalls to be pt_regs based which removes the
   requirement to push all 6 potential arguments onto the stack and
   consolidates the interface with the 64bit variant

 - The first small portion of the exception and syscall related entry
   code consolidation which aims to address the recently discovered
   issues vs. RCU, int3, NMI and some other exceptions which can
   interrupt any context. The bulk of the changes is still work in
   progress and aimed for 5.8.

 - A few lockdep namespace cleanups which have been applied into this
   branch to keep the prerequisites for the ongoing work confined.

<title>x86/vdso: Discard .note.gnu.property sections in vDSO</title>

With the command-line option -mx86-used-note=yes which can also be
enabled at binutils build time with:

  --enable-x86-used-note  generate GNU x86 used ISA and feature properties

the x86 assembler in binutils 2.32 and above generates a program property
note in a note section, .note.gnu.property, to encode used x86 ISAs and
features.  But kernel linker script only contains a single NOTE segment:

  PHDRS
  {
   text PT_LOAD FLAGS(5) FILEHDR PHDRS; /* PF_R|PF_X */
   dynamic PT_DYNAMIC FLAGS(4); /* PF_R */
   note PT_NOTE FLAGS(4); /* PF_R */
   eh_frame_hdr 0x6474e550;
  }

The NOTE segment generated by the vDSO linker script is aligned to 4 bytes.
But the .note.gnu.property section must be aligned to 8 bytes on x86-64:

  [hjl@gnu-skx-1 vdso]$ readelf -n vdso64.so

  Displaying notes found in: .note
    Owner                Data size 	Description
    Linux                0x00000004	Unknown note type: (0x00000000)
     description data: 06 00 00 00
  readelf: Warning: note with invalid namesz and/or descsz found at offset 0x20
  readelf: Warning:  type: 0x78, namesize: 0x00000100, descsize: 0x756e694c, alignment: 8

Since the note.gnu.property section in the vDSO is not checked by the
dynamic linker, discard the .note.gnu.property sections in the vDSO.

<title>x86/vdso: Move VDSO clocksource state tracking to callback</title>

All architectures which use the generic VDSO code have their own storage
for the VDSO clock mode. That's pointless and just requires duplicate code.

X86 abuses the function which retrieves the architecture specific clock
mode storage to mark the clocksource as used in the VDSO. That's silly
because this is invoked on every tick when the VDSO data is updated.

Move this functionality to the clocksource::enable() callback so it gets
invoked once when the clocksource is installed. This allows to make the
clock mode storage generic.

<title>kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-y</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5f2fb52fac15a8a8e10ce020dd532504a8abfc4e</id>
<content type='text'>
In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.

It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.

This commit renames like follows:

  always       -&gt;  always-y
  hostprogs-y  -&gt;  hostprogs

So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:

  always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
  always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS)    += ...
      ...
  hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)

I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.

The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.
