37c7f25fe2 kbuild: dummy-tools: avoid tmpdir leak in dummy gcc
commit aac289653f upstream

When passed -print-file-name=plugin, the dummy gcc script creates a
temporary directory that is never cleaned up. To avoid cluttering
$TMPDIR, instead use a static directory included in the source tree.

9fc17c3af5 kbuild: simplify GCC_PLUGINS enablement in dummy-tools/gcc
commit f4c3b83b75 upstream.

With commit 1e860048c5 ("gcc-plugins: simplify GCC plugin-dev
capability test") applied, this hunk can be way simplified because
now scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig only checks plugin-version.h

feaa91193a kbuild: dummy-tools: fix inverted tests for gcc
[ Upstream commit b3d9fc1436 ]

There is a test in Kconfig which takes inverted value of a compiler
check:
* config CC_HAS_INT128
        def_bool !$(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0)

This results in CC_HAS_INT128 not being in super-config generated by
dummy-tools. So take this into account in the gcc script.

76426e2388 kbuild: add dummy toolchains to enable all cc-option etc. in Kconfig
Staring v4.18, Kconfig evaluates compiler capabilities, and hides CONFIG
options your compiler does not support. This works well if you configure
and build the kernel on the same host machine.

It is inconvenient if you prepare the .config that is carried to a
different build environment (typically this happens when you package
the kernel for distros) because using a different compiler potentially
produces different CONFIG options than the real build environment.
So, you probably want to make as many options visible as possible.
In other words, you need to create a super-set of CONFIG options that
cover any build environment. If some of the CONFIG options turned out
to be unsupported on the build machine, they are automatically disabled
by the nature of Kconfig.

However, it is not feasible to get a full-featured compiler for every
arch.

This issue was discussed here:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/12/9/620

Other than distros, savedefconfig is also a problem. Some arch sub-systems
periodically resync defconfig files. If you use a less-capable compiler
for savedefconfig, options that do not meet 'depends on $(cc-option,...)'
will be forcibly disabled. So, 'make defconfig && make savedefconfig'
may silently change the behavior.

This commit adds a set of dummy toolchains that pretend to support any
feature.

Most of compiler features are tested by cc-option, which simply checks
the exit code of $(CC). The dummy tools are shell scripts that always
exit with 0. So, $(cc-option, ...) is evaluated as 'y'.

There are more complicated checks such as:

  scripts/gcc-x86_{32,64}-has-stack-protector.sh
  scripts/gcc-plugin.sh
  scripts/tools-support-relr.sh

scripts/dummy-tools/gcc passes all checks.

From the top directory of the source tree, you can do:

   $ make CROSS_COMPILE=scripts/dummy-tools/ oldconfig
