CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL turns on stack initialization based on
-ftrivial-auto-var-init in Clang builds, which has greater coverage
than CONFIG_GCC_PLUGINS_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL.
-ftrivial-auto-var-init Clang option provides trivial initializers for
uninitialized local variables, variable fields and padding.
It has three possible values:
pattern - uninitialized locals are filled with a fixed pattern
(mostly 0xAA on 64-bit platforms, see https://reviews.llvm.org/D54604
for more details, but 0x000000AA for 32-bit pointers) likely to cause
crashes when uninitialized value is used;
zero (it's still debated whether this flag makes it to the official
Clang release) - uninitialized locals are filled with zeroes;
uninitialized (default) - uninitialized locals are left intact.
This patch uses only the "pattern" mode when CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL is
enabled.
Developers have the possibility to opt-out of this feature on a
per-variable basis by using __attribute__((uninitialized)), but such
use should be well justified in comments.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2019-04-12
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Improve BPF verifier scalability for large programs through two
optimizations: i) remove verifier states that are not useful in pruning,
ii) stop walking parentage chain once first LIVE_READ is seen. Combined
gives approx 20x speedup. Increase limits for accepting large programs
under root, and add various stress tests, from Alexei.
2) Implement global data support in BPF. This enables static global variables
for .data, .rodata and .bss sections to be properly handled which allows
for more natural program development. This also opens up the possibility
to optimize program workflow by compiling ELFs only once and later only
rewriting section data before reload, from Daniel and with test cases and
libbpf refactoring from Joe.
3) Add config option to generate BTF type info for vmlinux as part of the
kernel build process. DWARF debug info is converted via pahole to BTF.
Latter relies on libbpf and makes use of BTF deduplication algorithm which
results in 100x savings compared to DWARF data. Resulting .BTF section is
typically about 2MB in size, from Andrii.
4) Add BPF verifier support for stack access with variable offset from
helpers and add various test cases along with it, from Andrey.
5) Extend bpf_skb_adjust_room() growth BPF helper to mark inner MAC header
so that L2 encapsulation can be used for tc tunnels, from Alan.
6) Add support for input __sk_buff context in BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN so that
users can define a subset of allowed __sk_buff fields that get fed into
the test program, from Stanislav.
7) Add bpf fs multi-dimensional array tests for BTF test suite and fix up
various UBSAN warnings in bpftool, from Yonghong.
8) Generate a pkg-config file for libbpf, from Luca.
9) Dump program's BTF id in bpftool, from Prashant.
10) libbpf fix to use smaller BPF log buffer size for AF_XDP's XDP
program, from Magnus.
11) kallsyms related fixes for the case when symbols are not present in
BPF selftests and samples, from Daniel

After cross-compiling the kernel, "make mrproper" should be executed
with the proper ARCH= option. Otherwise, stale objects will remain
under arch/$(SRCARCH)/.
One bad scenario is like this:
$ make ARCH=arm defconfig all # cross-compile the kernel for arm
$ make mrproper # mrproper for host-arch (i.e. x86)
$ make ARCH=arm O=build_dir defconfig all
If you miss ARCH= for mrproper and cross-compile the kernel with O=
and ARCH= options, Kbuild will happily start to build, but may fail
due to stale objects in the srctree.
If $(srctree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated/ exists, let's stop
the out-of-tree build. To detect this, mrproper should clean only
arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated/.

GCC 9 introduces a new option, -flive-patching. It disables certain
optimizations which could make a compilation unsafe for later live
patching of the running kernel.
The option is used only if CONFIG_LIVEPATCH is enabled and $(CC)
supports it.
Performance impact of the option was measured on three different
Intel machines - two bigger NUMA boxes and one smaller UMA box. Kernel
intensive (IO, scheduling, networking) benchmarks were selected, plus a
set of HPC workloads from NAS Parallel Benchmark. The tests were done on
upstream kernel 5.0-rc8 with openSUSE Leap 15.0 userspace.
The majority of the tests is unaffected. The only significant exception
is the scheduler section which suffers 1-3% degradation.

This patch adds new config option to trigger generation of BTF type
information from DWARF debuginfo for vmlinux and kernel modules through
pahole, which in turn relies on libbpf for btf_dedup() algorithm.
The intent is to record compact type information of all types used
inside kernel, including all the structs/unions/typedefs/etc. This
enables BPF's compile-once-run-everywhere ([0]) approach, in which
tracing programs that are inspecting kernel's internal data (e.g.,
struct task_struct) can be compiled on a system running some kernel
version, but would be possible to run on other kernel versions (and
configurations) without recompilation, even if the layout of structs
changed and/or some of the fields were added, removed, or renamed.
This is only possible if BPF loader can get kernel type info to adjust
all the offsets correctly. This patch is a first time in this direction,
making sure that BTF type info is part of Linux kernel image in
non-loadable ELF section.
BTF deduplication ([1]) algorithm typically provides 100x savings
compared to DWARF data, so resulting .BTF section is not big as is
typically about 2MB in size.

KBUILD_SRC was conventionally used for some different purposes:
[1] To remember the source tree path
[2] As a flag to check if sub-make is already done
[3] As a flag to check if Kbuild runs out of tree
For [1], we do not need to remember it because the top Makefile
can compute it by $(realpath $(dir $(lastword $(MAKEFILE_LIST))))
[2] has been replaced with self-commenting 'sub_make_done'.
For [3], we can distinguish in-tree/out-of-tree by comparing
$(srctree) and '.'
This commit converts [3] to prepare for the KBUILD_SRC removal.

Kbuild always runs in the top of the output directory.
If Make starts in the source directory with O=, it relocates the
working directory to the location specified by O=.
Also, users can start build from the output directory by using the
Makefile generated by scripts/mkmakefile.
With a little more effort, Kbuild will be able to start from any
directory path.
This commit allows to specify the source directory by using
the -f option.
For example, you can do:
$ cd path/to/output/dir
$ make -f path/to/source/dir/Makefile
Or, for the equivalent behavior, you can do:
$ make O=path/to/output/dir -f path/to/source/dir/Makefile
KBUILD_SRC is now deprecated.

Manipulating $(MAKECMDGOALS) for sub-make seems odd to me.
[1] 'make O=foo sub-make' is turned into 'make O=foo', which builds
the default targets. It would make sense to terminate the build with:
*** No rule to make target 'sub-make'. Stop.
[2] 'make O=foo defconfig _all' is turned into 'make O=foo defconfig',
which changes the behavior.
Let's pass $(MAKECMDGOALS) as is.

When Make recurses to the top Makefile with sub-make-done unset,
the code block surrounded by 'ifneq ($(sub-make-done),1) ... endif'
is parsed multiple times. This happens for in-tree building of
include/config/auto.conf, *-pkg, etc. with GNU Make 4.x.
This is a slight regression by commit 688931a5ad4e ("kbuild: skip
sub-make for in-tree build with GNU Make 4.x") in terms of performance
since that code block contains one $(shell ...) invocation.
Fix it by exporting the variable irrespective of sub-make being run.
I renamed it because GNU Make cannot properly export variables
containing hyphens. This is probably a bug of GNU Make, and the issue
in Kbuild had already been reported by commit 2bfbe7881ee0 ("kbuild:
Do not use hyphen in exported variable name").

Commit 2b50f7ab6368 ("kbuild: add workaround for Debian make-kpkg")
annoyed people who want to wrap the top Makefile with GNUmakefile
to customize it for their use.
On second thought, we do not need to run the sub-make for in-tree

on GNU Make 3.x.
With this commit, people will get back their workflow, and the Debian
make-kpkg will still work.

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't
need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.
Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
recursively expanded.
On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.
Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
old) commit e8f5bdb02ce0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would
have just removed the ":".

Since commit 3812b8c5c5d5 ("kbuild: make -r/-R effective in top
Makefile for old Make versions"), make-kpkg is not working.
make-kpkg directly includes the top Makefile of Linux kernel, and
appends some debian_* targets.
/usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/kernel_version.mk:
# Include the kernel makefile
override dot-config := 1
include Makefile
dot-config := 1
I did not know the kernel Makefile was used in that way, and it is
hard to guarantee the behavior when the kernel Makefile is included
by another Makefile from a different project.
It looks like Debian Stretch stopped providing make-kpkg. Maybe it is
obsolete and being replaced with 'make deb-pkg' etc. but still widely
used.
This commit adds a workaround; if the top Makefile is included by
another Makefile, skip sub-make in order to make the main part visible.
'MAKEFLAGS += -rR' does not become effective for GNU Make < 4.0, but
Debian/Ubuntu is already using newer versions.
The effect of this commit:
Debian 8 (Jessie) : Fixed
Debian 9 (Stretch) : make-kpkg (kernel-package) is not provided
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS : NOT Fixed
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS : Fixed
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS : Fixed
This commit cannot fix Ubuntu 14.04 because it installs GNU Make 3.81,
but its support will end in Apr 2019, which is before the Linux v5.1
release.
I added warning so that nobody would try to include the top Makefile.

If include/config/auto.conf.cmd is lost for some reasons, it is not
self-healing, so the top Makefile misses to run syncconfig.
Move include/config/auto.conf.cmd to the target side.
I used a pattern rule instead of a normal rule here although it is
a bit gross.
If the rule were written with a normal rule like this,
include/config/auto.conf \
include/config/auto.conf.cmd \
include/config/tristate.conf: $(KCONFIG_CONFIG)
$(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile syncconfig
... syncconfig would be executed per target.
Using a pattern rule makes sure that syncconfig is executed just once
because Make assumes the recipe will create all of the targets.
Here is a quote from the GNU Make manual [1]:
"Pattern rules may have more than one target. Unlike normal rules,
this does not act as many different rules with the same prerequisites
and recipe. If a pattern rule has multiple targets, make knows that
the rule's recipe is responsible for making all of the targets. The
recipe is executed only once to make all the targets. When searching
for a pattern rule to match a target, the target patterns of a rule
other than the one that matches the target in need of a rule are
incidental: make worries only about giving a recipe and prerequisites
to the file presently in question. However, when this file's recipe is
run, the other targets are marked as having been updated themselves."

The dependency will be checked anyway after Kbuild descends into a
sub-directory. Skip object/source dependency checks in top Makefile.
VPATH can be simpler since the top Makefile no longer checks the
presence of the source file, which is located in in the external
module directory.
One good thing is, it can compile an object from a generated source
file.

The previous commit made 'MAKEFLAGS += -rR' effective in the top
Makefile regardless of O= option, GNU Make versions.
The top Makefile does not need to cancel implicit rules for makefiles.
There is still one place where an empty rule is useful. Since -rR is
effective only after sub-make, GNU Make would try implicit rules to
update the top Makefile. Although it is not a big overhead, cancel it
just in case.

Adding -rR to MAKEFLAGS is important because we do not want to
be bothered by built-in implicit rules or variables.
One problem that used to exist in older GNU Make versions is
MAKEFLAGS += -rR
... does not become effective in the current Makefile. When you are
building with O= option, it becomes effective in the top Makefile
since it recurses via 'sub-make' target. Otherwise, the top Makefile
tries implicit rules. That is why we explicitly add empty rules for
Makefiles, but we often miss to do that.
In fact, adding -d option to older GNU Make versions shows it is
trying a bunch of implicit pattern rules.

This issue was fixed by GNU Make commit 58dae243526b ("[Savannah #20501]
Handle adding -r/-R to MAKEFLAGS in the makefile"). So, it is no longer
a problem if you use GNU Make 4.0 or later. However, older versions are
still widely used.
So, I decided to patch the kernel Makefile to invoke sub-make regardless
of O= option. This will allow further cleanups.

This would disturb the change the sub-make part. Move it near the
tools/ target.

Since -Wmaybe-uninitialized was introduced by GCC 4.7, we have patched
various false positives:
- commit e74fc973b6e5 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized when building
with -Os") turned off this option for -Os.
- commit 815eb71e7149 ("Kbuild: disable 'maybe-uninitialized' warning
for CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES") turned off this option for
CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES
- commit a76bcf557ef4 ("Kbuild: enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning
for "make W=1"") turned off this option for GCC < 4.9
Arnd provided more explanation in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/3/14/903
I think this looks better by shifting the logic from Makefile to Kconfig.

The genksyms source was integrated into the kernel tree in 2003.
I do not expect anybody still using the external /sbin/genksyms.
Kbuild does not need to provide the ability to override GENKSYMS.
Let's remove the GENKSYMS variable, and use the hardcoded path.
Since it occurred in the pre-git era, I attached the commit message
in case somebody is interested in the historical background.

| kbuild: [PATCH] put genksyms in scripts dir
|
| This puts genksyms into scripts/genksyms/.
|
| genksyms used to be maintained externally, though the only possible user
| was the kernel build. Moving it into the kernel sources makes it easier to
| keep it uptodate, like for example updating it to generate linker scripts
| directly instead of postprocessing the generated header file fragments
| with sed, as we do currently.
|
| Also, genksyms does not handle __typeof__, which needs to be fixed since
| some of the exported symbol in the kernel are defined using __typeof__.

It is weird to create gdb stuff as a side-effect of vmlinux.
Move it to a more relevant place.

Currently, Kbuild descends from scripts/Makefile to scripts/gdb/Makefile
just for creating symbolic links, but it does not need to do it so early.
Merge the two descending paths to simplify the code.

scripts/gdb/linux/constants.py is never used in the kernel build
process. There is no good reason to create it so early.
Get it out of the 'prepare' stage.

Commit 06300b21f4c7 ("kbuild: support building individual files for
external modules") introduced the '/' target. It works only for
external modules to build all .o files, but skip the modpost stage.
However, 'make /' looks a bit weird to me. 'make ./' is more sensible
if you want to build all objects under the current directory, and it
works as expected.
Let's change '/' into a phony target that is an alias of './', but
I may feel like deprecating it in the future.
