kbuild: support LLVM=1 to switch the default tools to Clang/LLVM

2020-04-08T18:18:21Z

As Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst implies, building the kernel with a full set of LLVM tools gets very verbose and unwieldy. Provide a single switch LLVM=1 to use Clang and LLVM tools instead of GCC and Binutils. You can pass it from the command line or as an environment variable. Please note LLVM=1 does not turn on the integrated assembler. You need to pass LLVM_IAS=1 to use it. When the upstream kernel is ready for the integrated assembler, I think we can make it default. We discussed what we need, and we agreed to go with a simple boolean flag that switches both target and host tools: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/28/494 https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/3/43 Some items discussed, but not adopted: - LLVM_DIR When multiple versions of LLVM are installed, I just thought supporting LLVM_DIR=/path/to/my/llvm/bin/ might be useful. CC = $(LLVM_DIR)clang LD = $(LLVM_DIR)ld.lld ... However, we can handle this by modifying PATH. So, we decided to not do this. - LLVM_SUFFIX Some distributions (e.g. Debian) package specific versions of LLVM with naming conventions that use the version as a suffix. CC = clang$(LLVM_SUFFIX) LD = ld.lld(LLVM_SUFFIX) ... will allow a user to pass LLVM_SUFFIX=-11 to use clang-11 etc., but the suffixed versions in /usr/bin/ are symlinks to binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin/, so this can also be handled by PATH.

Merge tag 'spdx-5.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/spdx

Pull SPDX updates from Greg KH: "Here are three SPDX patches for 5.7-rc1. One fixes up the SPDX tag for a single driver, while the other two go through the tree and add SPDX tags for all of the .gitignore files as needed. Nothing too complex, but you will get a merge conflict with your current tree, that should be trivial to handle (one file modified by two things, one file deleted.) All three of these have been in linux-next for a while, with no reported issues other than the merge conflict" * tag 'spdx-5.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/spdx: ASoC: MT6660: make spdxcheck.py happy .gitignore: add SPDX License Identifier .gitignore: remove too obvious comments

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle were: - Continued user-access cleanups in the futex code. - percpu-rwsem rewrite that uses its own waitqueue and atomic_t instead of an embedded rwsem. This addresses a couple of weaknesses, but the primary motivation was complications on the -rt kernel. - Introduce raw lock nesting detection on lockdep (CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING=y), document the raw_lock vs. normal lock differences. This too originates from -rt. - Reuse lockdep zapped chain_hlocks entries, to conserve RAM footprint on distro-ish kernels running into the "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!" depletion of the lockdep chain-entries pool. - Misc cleanups, smaller fixes and enhancements - see the changelog for details" * 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (55 commits) fs/buffer: Make BH_Uptodate_Lock bit_spin_lock a regular spinlock_t thermal/x86_pkg_temp: Make pkg_temp_lock a raw_spinlock_t Documentation/locking/locktypes: Minor copy editor fixes Documentation/locking/locktypes: Further clarifications and wordsmithing m68knommu: Remove mm.h include from uaccess_no.h x86: get rid of user_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() generic arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() doesn't need access_ok() x86: don't reload after cmpxchg in unsafe_atomic_op2() loop x86: convert arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() to user_access_begin/user_access_end() objtool: whitelist __sanitizer_cov_trace_switch() [parisc, s390, sparc64] no need for access_ok() in futex handling sh: no need of access_ok() in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() futex: arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() calling conventions change completion: Use lockdep_assert_RT_in_threaded_ctx() in complete_all() lockdep: Add posixtimer context tracing bits lockdep: Annotate irq_work lockdep: Add hrtimer context tracing bits lockdep: Introduce wait-type checks completion: Use simple wait queues sched/swait: Prepare usage in completions ...

objtool: whitelist __sanitizer_cov_trace_switch()

2020-03-28T03:58:53Z

it's not really different from e.g. __sanitizer_cov_trace_cmp4(); as it is, the switches that generate an array of labels get rejected by objtool, while slightly different set of cases that gets compiled into a series of comparisons is accepted. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

objtool: Optimize find_rela_by_dest_range()

2020-03-25T17:28:31Z

Perf shows there is significant time in find_rela_by_dest(); this is because we have to iterate the address space per byte, looking for relocation entries. Optimize this by reducing the address space granularity. This reduces objtool on vmlinux.o runtime from 4.8 to 4.4 seconds.

objtool: Optimize read_sections()

2020-03-25T17:28:30Z

Perf showed that __hash_init() is a significant portion of read_sections(), so instead of doing a per section rela_hash, use an elf-wide rela_hash. Statistics show us there are about 1.1 million relas, so size it accordingly. This reduces the objtool on vmlinux.o runtime to a third, from 15 to 5 seconds.

Perf shows we're spending a lot of time in find_insn() and the statistics show we have around 3.2 million instruction. Increase the hash table size to reduce the bucket load from around 50 to 3.
