With LTO, LLVM bitcode won't be compiled into native code until
modpost_link, or modfinal for modules. This change postpones calls
to objtool until after these steps, and moves objtool_args to
Makefile.lib, so the arguments can be reused in Makefile.modfinal.
As we didn't have objects to process earlier, we use --duplicate
when processing vmlinux.o. This change also disables unreachable
instruction warnings with LTO to avoid warnings about the int3
padding between functions.

This change adds build system support for Clang's Link Time
Optimization (LTO). With -flto, instead of ELF object files, Clang
produces LLVM bitcode, which is compiled into native code at link
time, allowing the final binary to be optimized globally. For more
details, see:
https://llvm.org/docs/LinkTimeOptimization.html
The Kconfig option CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is implemented as a choice,
which defaults to LTO being disabled. To use LTO, the architecture
must select ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG and support:
- compiling with Clang,
- compiling all assembly code with Clang's integrated assembler,
- and linking with LLD.
While using CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_FULL results in the best runtime
performance, the compilation is not scalable in time or
memory. CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN enables ThinLTO, which allows
parallel optimization and faster incremental builds. ThinLTO is
used by default if the architecture also selects
ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG_THIN:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThinLTO.html
To enable LTO, LLVM tools must be used to handle bitcode files, by
passing LLVM=1 and LLVM_IAS=1 options to make:
$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig
$ scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN
$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
To prepare for LTO support with other compilers, common parts are
gated behind the CONFIG_LTO option, and LTO can be disabled for
specific files by filtering out CC_FLAGS_LTO.

In some modes of operation, Kbuild allows to build modules without having
vmlinux image around. In such case, generation of module BTF is impossible.
This patch changes the behavior to emit a warning about impossibility of
generating kernel module BTF, instead of breaking the build. This is especially
important for out-of-tree external module builds.
In vmlinux-less mode:
$ make clean
$ make modules_prepare
$ touch drivers/acpi/button.c
$ make M=drivers/acpi
...
CC [M] drivers/acpi/button.o
MODPOST drivers/acpi/Module.symvers
LD [M] drivers/acpi/button.ko
BTF [M] drivers/acpi/button.ko
Skipping BTF generation for drivers/acpi/button.ko due to unavailability of vmlinux
...
$ readelf -S ~/linux-build/default/drivers/acpi/button.ko | grep BTF -A1
... empty ...
Now with normal build:
$ make all
...
LD [M] drivers/acpi/button.ko
BTF [M] drivers/acpi/button.ko
...
$ readelf -S ~/linux-build/default/drivers/acpi/button.ko | grep BTF -A1

Detect if pahole supports split BTF generation, and generate BTF for each
selected kernel module, if it does. This is exposed to Makefiles and C code as
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES flag.
Kernel module BTF has to be re-generated if either vmlinux's BTF changes or
module's .ko changes. To achieve that, I needed a helper similar to
if_changed, but that would allow to filter out vmlinux from the list of
updated dependencies for .ko building. I've put it next to the only place that
uses and needs it, but it might be a better idea to just add it along the
other if_changed variants into scripts/Kbuild.include.
Each kernel module's BTF deduplication is pretty fast, as it does only
incremental BTF deduplication on top of already deduplicated vmlinux BTF. To
show the added build time, I've first ran make only just built kernel (to
establish the baseline) and then forced only BTF re-generation, without
regenerating .ko files. The build was performed with -j60 parallelization on
56-core machine. The final time also includes bzImage building, so it's not
a pure BTF overhead.
$ time make -j60
...
make -j60 27.65s user 10.96s system 782% cpu 4.933 total
$ touch ~/linux-build/default/vmlinux && time make -j60
...
make -j60 123.69s user 27.85s system 1566% cpu 9.675 total
So 4.6 seconds real time, with noticeable part spent in compressed vmlinux and
bzImage building.
To show size savings, I've built my kernel configuration with about 700 kernel
modules with full BTF per each kernel module (without deduplicating against
vmlinux) and with split BTF against deduplicated vmlinux (approach in this
patch). Below are top 10 modules with biggest BTF sizes. And total size of BTF
data across all kernel modules.
It shows that split BTF "compresses" 115MB down to 5MB total. And the biggest
kernel modules get a downsize from 500-570KB down to 200-300KB.

There was a request to preprocess the module linker script like we
do for the vmlinux one. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/8/21/512)
The difference between vmlinux.lds and module.lds is that the latter
is needed for external module builds, thus must be cleaned up by
'make mrproper' instead of 'make clean'. Also, it must be created
by 'make modules_prepare'.
You cannot put it in arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/, which is cleaned up by
'make clean'. I moved arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/module.lds to
arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/asm/module.lds.h, which is included from
scripts/module.lds.S.
scripts/module.lds is fine because 'make clean' keeps all the
build artifacts under scripts/.
You can add arch-specific sections in <asm/module.lds.h>.

I think splitting the modpost and linking modules into separate
Makefiles will be useful especially when more complex build steps
come in. The main motivation of this commit is to integrate the
proposed klp-convert feature cleanly.
I moved the logging 'Building modules, stage 2.' to Makefile.modpost
to avoid the code duplication although I do not know whether or not
this message is needed in the first place.
