In commit b18b047002 ("kbuild: change scripts/mksysmap into sed
script"), the mksysmap script was transformed into a sed script,
made directly executable with "#!/bin/sed -f". Apparently, the path to
sed is different on NixOS.
The shebang can't use the env command, otherwise the "sed -f" command
would be treated as a single argument. This can be solved with the -S
flag, but that is a GNU extension. Explicitly use sed instead of relying
on the executable shebang to fix NixOS builds without breaking build
environments using Busybox.

The resulting vmlinux is correct, but it always requires an additional
linking step.
The symbols produced by kallsyms are excluded from kallsyms itself
because they were previously missing in step 1. With those symbols
excluded, the symbol lists matched between step 1 and step 2,
eliminating the need for step 3. Now, this has a negative effect.
Since 951bcae6c5, the PROVIDE() directives provide the fallback
definitions, which are not trimmed from the sysbol list in step 1
because ${kallsymso_prev} is empty at this point.
In step 2, ${kallsymso_prev} is set, and the kallsyms_* symbols are
trimmed from the symbol list.
Due to the table size difference between step 1 and step 2 (the former
is larger due to the presence of kallsyms_*), step 3 is triggered.
Now that the kallsyms_* symbols are always linked, let's stop omitting
them from kallsyms. This avoids unnecessary step 3.

LLVM appends various suffixes for local functions and variables, suffixes
observed:
- foo.llvm.[0-9a-f]+
- foo.[0-9a-f]+
Therefore, when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, kallsyms_lookup_name() needs to
truncate the suffix of the symbol name before comparing the local function
or variable name.
Old implementation code:
- if (strcmp(namebuf, name) == 0)
- return kallsyms_sym_address(i);
- if (cleanup_symbol_name(namebuf) && strcmp(namebuf, name) == 0)
- return kallsyms_sym_address(i);
The preceding process is traversed by address from low to high. That is,
for those with the same name after the suffix is removed, the one with
the smallest address is returned first. Therefore, when sorting in the
tool, if the raw names are the same, they should be sorted by address in
ascending order.
ASCII[.] = 2e
ASCII[0-9] = 30,39
ASCII[A-Z] = 41,5a
ASCII[_] = 5f
ASCII[a-z] = 61,7a
According to the preceding ASCII code values, the following sorting result
is strictly followed.

scripts/mksysmap internally runs ${NM} (dropping some symbols).
When CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, mksysmap creates .tmp_System.map, but it is
almost the same as the output from the ${NM} invocation in kallsyms().
It is true scripts/mksysmap drops some symbols, but scripts/kallsyms.c
ignores more anyway.
Keep the mksysmap output as *.syms, and reuse it for kallsyms and
'cmp -s'. It saves one ${NM} invocation.

The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:
- arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
them before other archives in the linker command line.
- arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.
This commit gets rid of the latter.
Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.
With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.
There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.
$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].

Currently, modpost is executed twice; first for vmlinux, second

This commit merges them.
Current build flow
==================
1) build obj-y and obj-m objects
2) link vmlinux.o
3) modpost for vmlinux
4) link vmlinux
5) modpost for modules
6) link modules (*.ko)
The build steps 1) through 6) are serialized, that is, modules are
built after vmlinux. You do not get benefits of parallel builds when
scripts/link-vmlinux.sh is being run.

Kbuild builds init/built-in.a twice; first during the ordinary
directory descending, second from scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.
We do this because UTS_VERSION contains the build version and the
timestamp. We cannot update it during the normal directory traversal
since we do not yet know if we need to update vmlinux. UTS_VERSION is
temporarily calculated, but omitted from the update check. Otherwise,
vmlinux would be rebuilt every time.
When Kbuild results in running link-vmlinux.sh, it increments the
version number in the .version file and takes the timestamp at that
time to really fix UTS_VERSION.
However, updating the same file twice is a footgun. To avoid nasty
timestamp issues, all build artifacts that depend on init/built-in.a
are atomically generated in link-vmlinux.sh, where some of them do not
need rebuilding.
To fix this issue, this commit changes as follows:
[1] Split UTS_VERSION out to include/generated/utsversion.h from
include/generated/compile.h
include/generated/utsversion.h is generated just before the
vmlinux link. It is generated under include/generated/ because
some decompressors (s390, x86) use UTS_VERSION.
[2] Split init_uts_ns and linux_banner out to init/version-timestamp.c
from init/version.c
init_uts_ns and linux_banner contain UTS_VERSION. During the ordinary
directory descending, they are compiled with __weak and used to
determine if vmlinux needs relinking. Just before the vmlinux link,
they are compiled without __weak to embed the real version and
timestamp.

scripts/Makefile.build and scripts/link-vmlinux.sh have similar setups
for the objtool arguments.
It was difficult to factor out them because all the vmlinux build rules
were written in a shell script. It is somewhat tedious to touch the two
files every time a new objtool option is supported.
To reduce the code duplication, move the objtool for vmlinux.o into
scripts/Makefile.vmlinux_o. Then, move the common macros to Makefile.lib
so they are shared between Makefile.build and Makefile.vmlinux_o.

Guenter Roeck reported the build breakage for parisc and csky.
I confirmed nios2 and openrisc are broken as well.
The reason is that they borrow libgcc.a from the toolchains.
For example, see this line in arch/parisc/Makefile:
LIBGCC := $(shell $(CC) -print-libgcc-file-name)
Some objects in libgcc.a are linked to vmlinux.o, but they do not have
.*.cmd files.
Obviously, there is no EXPORT_SYMBOL in external objects. Ignore them.
(Most of the architectures import library code into the kernel tree.
Perhaps those 4 architectures can do similar, but I do not know how
challenging it is.)

- Comprehensive interface overhaul:
=================================
Objtool's interface has some issues:
- Several features are done unconditionally, without any way to turn
them off. Some of them might be surprising. This makes objtool
tricky to use, and prevents porting individual features to other
arches.
- The config dependencies are too coarse-grained. Objtool enablement is
tied to CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, but it has several other features
independent of that.
- The objtool subcmds ("check" and "orc") are clumsy: "check" is really
a subset of "orc", so it has all the same options. The subcmd model
has never really worked for objtool, as it only has a single purpose:
"do some combination of things on an object file".
- The '--lto' and '--vmlinux' options are nonsensical and have
surprising behavior.
Overhaul the interface:
- get rid of subcmds
- make all features individually selectable
- remove and/or clarify confusing/obsolete options
- update the documentation
- fix some bugs found along the way
- Fix x32 regression
- Fix Kbuild cleanup bugs
- Add scripts/objdump-func helper script to disassemble a single function from an object file.
- Rewrite scripts/faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on 'readelf',
moving it away from 'nm', which doesn't handle multiple sections well,
which can result in decoding failure.
- Rewrite & fix symbol handling - which had a number of bugs wrt. object files
that don't have global symbols - which is rare but possible. Also fix a
bunch of symbol handling bugs found along the way.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Comprehensive interface overhaul:
=================================
Objtool's interface has some issues:
- Several features are done unconditionally, without any way to
turn them off. Some of them might be surprising. This makes
objtool tricky to use, and prevents porting individual features
to other arches.
- The config dependencies are too coarse-grained. Objtool
enablement is tied to CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, but it has several
other features independent of that.
- The objtool subcmds ("check" and "orc") are clumsy: "check" is
really a subset of "orc", so it has all the same options.
The subcmd model has never really worked for objtool, as it only
has a single purpose: "do some combination of things on an object
file".
- The '--lto' and '--vmlinux' options are nonsensical and have
surprising behavior.
Overhaul the interface:
- get rid of subcmds
- make all features individually selectable
- remove and/or clarify confusing/obsolete options
- update the documentation
- fix some bugs found along the way
- Fix x32 regression
- Fix Kbuild cleanup bugs
- Add scripts/objdump-func helper script to disassemble a single
function from an object file.
- Rewrite scripts/faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on
'readelf', moving it away from 'nm', which doesn't handle multiple
sections well, which can result in decoding failure.
- Rewrite & fix symbol handling - which had a number of bugs wrt.
object files that don't have global symbols - which is rare but
possible. Also fix a bunch of symbol handling bugs found along the
way.

include/{linux,asm-generic}/export.h defines a weak symbol, __crc_*
as a placeholder.
Genksyms writes the version CRCs into the linker script, which will be
used for filling the __crc_* symbols. The linker script format depends
on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. If it is enabled, __crc_* holds the offset
to the reference of CRC.
It is time to get rid of this complexity.
Now that modpost parses text files (.*.cmd) to collect all the CRCs,
it can generate C code that will be linked to the vmlinux or modules.
Generate a new C file, .vmlinux.export.c, which contains the CRCs of
symbols exported by vmlinux. It is compiled and linked to vmlinux in
scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.
Put the CRCs of symbols exported by modules into the existing *.mod.c
files. No additional build step is needed for modules. As before,
*.mod.c are compiled and linked to *.ko in scripts/Makefile.modfinal.
No linker magic is used here. The new C implementation works in the
same way, whether CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled or not.
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is no longer needed.
Previously, Kbuild invoked additional $(LD) to update the CRCs in
objects, but this step is unneeded too.

The '--lto' option is a confusing way of telling objtool to do stack
validation despite it being a linked object. It's no longer needed now
that an explicit '--stackval' option exists. The '--vmlinux' option is
also redundant.
Remove both options in favor of a straightforward '--link' option which
identifies a linked object.
Also, implicitly set '--link' with a warning if the user forgets to do
so and we can tell that it's a linked object. This makes it easier for
manual vmlinux runs.

Objtool has a fairly singular focus. It runs on object files and does
validations and transformations which can be combined in various ways.
The subcommand model has never been a good fit, making it awkward to
combine and remove options.
Remove the "check" and "orc" subcommands in favor of a more traditional
cmdline option model. This makes it much more flexible to use, and
easier to port individual features to other arches.

Split the existing options into two groups: actions, which actually do
something; and options, which modify the actions in some way.
Also there's no need to have short flags for all the non-action options.
Reserve short flags for the more important actions.

- change a few of the short flags to be more intuitive
- make option descriptions more consistently descriptive
- sort options in the source like they are when printed

Richard Weinberger pointed out the risk of sourcing the kernel config
from shell scripts [1], and proposed some patches [2], [3]. It is a good
point, but it took a long time because I was wondering how to fix this.
This commit goes with simple grep approach because there are only a few
scripts including the kernel configuration.
scripts/link_vmlinux.sh has references to a bunch of CONFIG options,
all of which are boolean. I added is_enabled() helper as
scripts/package/{mkdebian,builddeb} do.
scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh uses 'eval', stating "to expand the whitelist
path". I removed it since it is the issue we are trying to fix.
I was a bit worried about the cost of invoking the grep command over
again. I extracted the grep parts from it, and measured the cost. It
was approximately 0.03 sec, which I hope is acceptable.
