2020-02-04kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-yMasahiro Yamada
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 -> always-y hostprogs-y -> 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.

2020-01-14ARM: vdso: Set BUILD_VDSO32 and provide 32bit fallbacksThomas Gleixner
Setting BUILD_VDSO32 is required to expose the legacy 32bit interfaces in the generic VDSO code which are going to be hidden behind an #ifdef BUILD_VDSO32. The 32bit fallbacks are necessary to remove the existing VDSO_HAS_32BIT_FALLBACK hackery.

The commit fe00e50b2db8 ("ARM: 8858/1: vdso: use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO") removed the passing of CFLAGS, since ld doesn't take those directly. However, prior, big-endian ARM was relying on gcc to translate its -mbe8 option into ld's --be8 option. Lacking this, ld generated be32 code, making the VDSO generate SIGILL when called by userspace.

We use $(LD) to link vmlinux, modules, decompressors, etc. VDSO is the only exceptional case where $(CC) is used as the linker driver, but I do not know why we need to do so. VDSO uses a special linker script, and does not link standard libraries at all. I changed the Makefile to use $(LD) rather than $(CC). I confirmed the same vdso.so.raw was still produced. Users will be able to use their favorite linker (e.g. lld instead of of bfd) by passing LD= from the command line. My plan is to rewrite all VDSO Makefiles to use $(LD), then delete cc-ldoption.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-10-25locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns ↵Mark Rutland
to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2015-07-31ARM: 8405/1: VDSO: fix regression with toolchains lacking ld.bfd executableNathan Lynch
The Sourcery CodeBench Lite 2014.05 toolchain (gcc 4.8.3, binutils 2.24.51) has a GCC which implements -fuse-ld, and it doesn't include the gold linker, but it lacks an ld.bfd executable in its installation. This means that passing -fuse-ld=bfd fails with: VDSO arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.raw collect2: fatal error: cannot find 'ld' Arguably this is a deficiency in the toolchain, but I suspect it's commonly used enough that it's worth accommodating: just use cc-ldoption (to cause a link attempt) instead of cc-option to test whether we can use -fuse-ld. So -fuse-ld=bfd won't be used with this toolchain, but the build will rightly succeed, just as it does for toolchains which don't implement -fuse-ld (and don't use gold as the default linker). Note: this will change the failure mode for a corner case I was trying to handle in d2b30cd4b722, where the toolchain defaults to the gold linker and the BFD linker is not found in PATH, from: VDSO arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.raw collect2: fatal error: cannot find 'ld' i.e. the BFD linker is not found, to: OBJCOPY arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so BFD: arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N that is, we fail to prevent gold from being used as the linker, and it produces an object that objcopy can't digest.

2015-07-03ARM: 8397/1: fix vdsomunge not to depend on glibc specific error.hSzabolcs Nagy
If the host toolchain is not glibc based then the arm kernel build fails with arch/arm/vdso/vdsomunge.c:53:19: fatal error: error.h: No such file or directory error.h is a glibc only header (ie not available in musl, newlib and bsd libcs). Changed the error reporting to standard conforming code to avoid depending on specific C implementations.

2015-06-06ARM: 8384/1: VDSO: force use of BFD linkerNathan Lynch
When using a toolchain with gold as the default linker, the VDSO build fails: VDSO arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.raw HOSTCC arch/arm/vdso/vdsomunge MUNGE arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.dbg OBJCOPY arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so BFD: arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N For whatever reason, ld.gold is omitting an exidx program header that ld.bfd emits, and even when I work around that, I don't get a working VDSO. For now, instead of supporting gold (which will fail to link the kernel anyway since it does not implement --pic-veneer), direct the compiler to use the traditional bfd linker. This is accomplished by using -fuse-ld, which is implemented in GCC 4.8 and later. Note: one limitation of this is that if the toolchain is configured to use gold by default, and the bfd linker is not in $PATH, the VDSO build will fail: VDSO arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.raw collect2: fatal error: cannot find 'ld' This will happen if CROSS_COMPILE begins with a path such as /opt/bin/arm-linux-gnu- but /opt/bin is not in $PATH. This is considered an acceptable corner-case limitation and is easily worked around. Additonal note: we use cc-option instead of cc-ldoption so that -fuse-ld=bfd is placed in the command line if the compiler recognizes the option. Using cc-ldoption results in an attempt to link, which fails in the situation just described, causing -fuse-ld=bfd to be omitted and gold to be used for the VDSO link, which is what we're trying to prevent.

2015-06-06ARM: 8385/1: VDSO: group link optionsNathan Lynch
Currently the VDSO's link options are kind of a mess spread between ccflags-y and cmd_vdsold. Collect linker directives into one variable, VDSO_LDFLAGS, and use that in cmd_vdsold. Signed-off-by: Nathan Lynch <nathan_lynch@mentor.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2015-04-21ARM: 8344/1: VDSO: honor CONFIG_VDSO in MakefileNathan Lynch
When CONFIG_VDSO=n, the build normally does not enter arch/arm/vdso/ because arch/arm/Makefile does not add it to core-y. However, if the user runs 'make arch/arm/vdso/' the VDSO targets will get visited. This is because the VDSO Makefile itself does not consider the value of CONFIG_VDSO. It is arguably better and more consistent behavior to generate an empty built-in.o when CONFIG_VDSO=n and the user attempts to build arch/arm/vdso/. It's nicer because it doesn't try to build things that Kconfig dependencies are there to prevent (e.g. the dependency on AEABI), and it's less confusing than building objects that won't be used in the final image.

2015-03-27ARM: 8330/1: add VDSO user-space codeNathan Lynch
Place VDSO-related user-space code in arch/arm/kernel/vdso/. It is almost completely written in C with some assembly helpers to load the data page address, sample the counter, and fall back to system calls when necessary. The VDSO can service gettimeofday and clock_gettime when CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER is enabled and the architected timer is present (and correctly configured). It reads the CP15-based virtual counter to compute high-resolution timestamps. Of particular note is that a post-processing step ("vdsomunge") is necessary to produce a shared object which is architecturally allowed to be used by both soft- and hard-float EABI programs. The 2012 edition of the ARM ABI defines Tag_ABI_VFP_args = 3 "Code is compatible with both the base and VFP variants; the user did not permit non-variadic functions to pass FP parameters/results." Unfortunately current toolchains do not support this tag, which is ideally what we would use. The best available option is to ensure that both EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT and EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_HARD are unset in the ELF header's e_flags, indicating that the shared object is "old" and should be accepted for backward compatibility's sake. While binutils < 2.24 appear to produce a vdso.so with both flags clear, 2.24 always sets EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT, with no way to inhibit this behavior. So we have to fix things up with a custom post-processing step. In fact, the VDSO code in glibc does much less validation (including checking these flags) than the code for handling conventional file-backed shared libraries, so this is a bit moot unless glibc's VDSO code becomes more strict.
