I noticed we're invoking $(CC) via $(shell) more than once to check the
version. Let's reuse the first string captured in $CC_VERSION_TEXT.

[masahiro.yamada:
CC_VERSION_TEXT is assigned by = instead of :=, so this $(shell ) is
evaluated multiple times anyway. The number of $(CC) invocations will
be still the same. Replacing 'grep' with the built-in $(findstring )
will give real performance benefit.]

Instead of storing the version in a single integer and having various
kernel (and userspace) code how it's constructed, export individual
(major, patchlevel, sublevel) components and simplify kernel code that
uses it.
This should also make it easier on userspace.

Right now if SUBLEVEL becomes larger than 255 it will overflow into the
territory of PATCHLEVEL, causing havoc in userspace that tests for
specific kernel version.
While userspace code tests for MAJOR and PATCHLEVEL, it doesn't test
SUBLEVEL at any point as ABI changes don't happen in the context of
stable tree.
Thus, to avoid overflows, simply clamp SUBLEVEL to it's maximum value in
the context of LINUX_VERSION_CODE. This does not affect "make
kernelversion" and such.

DWARF v5 is the latest standard of the DWARF debug info format. GCC 11
will change the implicit default DWARF version, if left unspecified, to
DWARF v5.
Allow users of Clang and older versions of GCC that have not changed the
implicit default DWARF version to DWARF v5 to opt in. This can help
testing consumers of DWARF debug info in preparation of v5 becoming more
widespread, as well as result in significant binary size savings of the
pre-stripped vmlinux image.
DWARF5 wins significantly in terms of size when mixed with compression
(CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED).
363M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5.compressed
434M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4.compressed
439M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2.compressed
457M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5
536M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4
548M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2
515M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5.compressed
599M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4.compressed
624M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2.compressed
630M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5
765M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4
809M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2
Though the quality of debug info is harder to quantify; size is not a
proxy for quality.
Jakub notes:
One thing is GCC DWARF-5 support, that is whether the compiler will
support -gdwarf-5 flag, and that support should be there from GCC 7
onwards.
All [GCC] 5.1 - 6.x did was start accepting -gdwarf-5 as experimental
option that enabled some small DWARF subset (initially only a few
DW_LANG_* codes newly added to DWARF5 drafts). Only GCC 7 (released
after DWARF 5 has been finalized) started emitting DWARF5 section
headers and got most of the DWARF5 changes in...
Another separate thing is whether the assembler does support
the -gdwarf-5 option (i.e. if you can compile assembler files
with -Wa,-gdwarf-5) ... That option is about whether the assembler
will emit DWARF5 or DWARF2 .debug_line. It is fine to compile C sources
with -gdwarf-5 and use DWARF2 .debug_line for assembler files if as
doesn't support it.
Version check GCC so that we don't need to worry about the difference in
command line args between GNU readelf and llvm-readelf/llvm-dwarfdump to
validate the DWARF Version in the assembler feature detection script.
Most issues with clang produced assembler were fixed in binutils 2.35.1,
but 2.35.2 fixed issues related to requiring the flag -Wa,-gdwarf-5
explicitly. The added shell script test checks for the latter, and is
only required when using clang without its integrated assembler, though
we use for clang regardless as we do not yet have a way to query the
assembler from Kconfig.
Disabled for now if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is set; pahole doesn't yet
recognize the new additions to the DWARF debug info.
This only modifies the DWARF version emitted by the compiler, not the
assembler.
The DWARF version of a binary can be validated with:
$ llvm-dwarfdump <object file> | head -n 4 | grep version
or
$ readelf --debug-dump=info <object file> 2>/dev/null | grep Version
Parts of the tree don't reuse DEBUG_CFLAGS as they should; such cleanup
is left as a follow up.

Adds a default CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT which allows
the implicit default version of DWARF emitted by the toolchain to
progress over time.
Modifies CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 to be a member of a choice, making it
mutually exclusive with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT. Users
may want to select this if they are using a newer toolchain, but have
consumers of the DWARF debug info that aren't yet ready for newer DWARF
versions' debug info.
Does so in a way that's forward compatible with existing
configs, and makes adding future versions more straightforward. This
patch does not change the current behavior or selection of DWARF
version for users upgrading to kernels with this patch.
GCC since ~4.8 has defaulted to DWARF v4 implicitly, and GCC 11 has
bumped this to v5.
Remove the Kconfig help text about DWARF v4 being larger. It's
empirically false for the latest toolchains for x86_64 defconfig, has no
point of reference (I suspect it was DWARF v2 but that's stil
empirically false), and debug info size is not a qualatative measure.

By default, xz without parameters uses a dictionary size of 8 MB.
However, most modules are much smaller than that.
The xz manpage states that 'increasing dictionary size usually improves
compression ratio, but a dictionary bigger than the uncompressed file
is waste of memory'.
Use a dictionary size of 2 MB for module compression, resulting in
slightly higher compression speed while still maintaining a good
compression ratio.

deb-pkg with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO. For example, 'make CC=clang bindeb-pkg'
reproduces the issue.
Kbuild recurses to the top Makefile for some targets such as package
builds.
With commit 121c5d08d5 ("kbuild: Only add -fno-var-tracking-assignments

CONFIG_CC_IS_GCC=y.

Python retired in 2020, and some distributions do not provide the

As in commit 51839e29cb ("scripts: switch explicitly to Python 3"),
we need to use more specific 'python3' to invoke scripts even if they
are written in a way compatible with both Python 2 and 3.
This commit removes the variable 'PYTHON', and switches the existing

With retpolines disabled, some configurations of GCC, and specifically
the GCC versions 9 and 10 in Ubuntu will add Intel CET instrumentation
to the kernel by default. That breaks certain tracing scenarios by
adding a superfluous ENDBR64 instruction before the fentry call, for
functions which can be called indirectly.
CET instrumentation isn't currently necessary in the kernel, as CET is
only supported in user space. Disable it unconditionally and move it
into the x86's Makefile as CET/CFI... enablement should be a per-arch
decision anyway.

Currently, '--orphan-handling=warn' is spread out across four different
architectures in their respective Makefiles, which makes it a little
unruly to deal with in case it needs to be disabled for a specific
linker version (in this case, ld.lld 10.0.1).
To make it easier to control this, hoist this warning into Kconfig and
the main Makefile so that disabling it is simpler, as the warning will
only be enabled in a couple places (main Makefile and a couple of
compressed boot folders that blow away LDFLAGS_vmlinx) and making it
conditional is easier due to Kconfig syntax. One small additional
benefit of this is saving a call to ld-option on incremental builds
because we will have already evaluated it for CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN.
To keep the list of supported architectures the same, introduce
CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, which an architecture can select to
gain this automatically after all of the sections are specified and size
asserted. A special thanks to Kees Cook for the help text on this
config.

The "size" tool has been solely used by s390 to enforce .bss section usage
restrictions in early startup code. Since commit 980d5f9ab3 ("s390/boot:
enable .bss section for compressed kernel") and commit 2e83e0eb85
("s390: clean .bss before running uncompressed kernel") these restrictions
have been lifted for the decompressor and uncompressed kernel and the
size tool is now unused.

Some old GCC versions between 4.5.0 and 4.9.1 might miscompile code
with -fvar-tracking-assingments (which is enabled by default with -g -O2).
Commit 2062afb4f8 ("Fix gcc-4.9.0 miscompilation of load_balance()
in scheduler") added -fno-var-tracking-assignments unconditionally to
work around this. But newer versions of GCC no longer have this bug, so
only add it for versions of GCC before 5.0. This allows various tools
such as a perf probe or gdb debuggers or systemtap to resolve variable
locations using dwarf locations in more code.

namespace.pl is intended to help locate symbols which are defined but
are not used externally. The goal is to avoid bloat of the namespace in
the resulting kernel image.
The script relies on object data, and only finds unused symbols for the
configuration used to generate that object data. This results in a lot
of false positive warnings such as symbols only used by a single
architecture, or symbols which are used externally only under certain
configurations.
Running namespace.pl using allyesconfig, allmodconfig, and
x86_64_defconfig yields the following results:
* allmodconfig
* 11122 unique symbol names with no external reference
* 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined
* 214 symbols it can't resolve
* allyesconfig
* 10997 unique symbol names with no external reference
* 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined
* 214 symbols it can't resolve
* x86_64_defconfig
* 5757 unique symbol names with no external reference
* 528 symbols listed as multiply defined
* 154 symbols it can't resolve
The script also has no way to easily limit the scope of the checks to
a given subset of the kernel, such as only checking for symbols defined
within a module or subsystem.
Discussion on public mailing lists seems to indicate that many view the
tool output as suspect or not very useful (see discussions at [1] and
[2] for further context).
As described by Masahiro Yamada at [2], namespace.pl provides 3 types of
checks: listing multiply defined symbols, resolving external symbols,
and warnings about symbols with no reference.
The first category of issues is easily caught by the linker as any set
of multiply defined symbols should fail to link. The second category of
issues is also caught by linking, as undefined symbols would cause
issues. Even with modules, these types of issues where a module relies
on an external symbol are caught by modpost.
The remaining category of issues reported is the list of symbols with no
external reference, and is the primary motivation of this script.
However, it ought to be clear from the above examples that the output is
difficult to sort through. Even allyesconfig has ~10000 entries.
The current submit-checklist indicates that patches ought to go through
namespacecheck and fix any new issues arising. But that itself presents
problems. As described at [1], many cases of reports are due to
configuration where a function is used externally by some configuration
settings. Prominent maintainers appear to dislike changes modify code
such that symbols become static based on CONFIG_* flags ([3], and [4])
One possible solution is to adjust the advice and indicate that we only
care about the output of namespacecheck on allyesconfig or allmodconfig
builds...
However, given the discussion at [2], I suspect that few people are
actively using this tool. It doesn't have a maintainer in the
MAINTAINERS flie, and it produces so many warnings for unused symbols
that it is difficult to use effectively. Thus, I propose we simply
remove it.

Move CFLAGS_KASAN*, CFLAGS_UBSAN, CFLAGS_KCSAN to Makefile.kasan,
Makefile.ubsan, Makefile.kcsan, respectively.
This commit also avoids the same -fsanitize=* flags being added to
CFLAGS_UBSAN multiple times.
Prior to this commit, the ubsan flags were appended by the '+='
operator, without any initialization. Some build targets such as
'make bindeb-pkg' recurses to the top Makefile, and ended up with
adding the same flags to CFLAGS_UBSAN twice.
Clear CFLAGS_UBSAN with ':=' to make it a simply expanded variable.
This is better than a recursively expanded variable, which evaluates
$(call cc-option, ...) multiple times before Kbuild starts descending
to subdirectories.
