  • 114f51577   kbuild: use LDFLAGS_MODULE only for .ko links ... Browse Code »

    Sam Ravnborg pointed out that Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt already
    says this is what it's for. This patch makes the reality live up to the
    documentation. This fixes the problem of LDFLAGS_BUILD_ID getting into too
    many places.

  • 18991197b   Use --build-id ld option ... Browse Code »

    This change passes the --build-id when linking the kernel and when linking
    modules, if ld supports it. This is a new GNU ld option that synthesizes an
    ELF note section inside the read-only data. The note in this section contains
    unique identifying bits called the "build ID", which are generated so as to be
    different for any two linked ELF files that aren't identical. The build ID
    can be recovered from stripped files, memory dumps, etc. and used to look up
    the original program built, locate debuginfo or other details or history
    associated with it. For normal program linking, the compiler passes
    --build-id to ld by default, but the option is needed when using ld directly
    as we do.

  • 741f98fe2   kbuild: do section mismatch check on full vmlinux ... Browse Code »

    Previously we did do the check on the .o files used to link
    vmlinux but that failed to find questionable references across
    the .o files.
    Create a dedicated vmlinux.o file used only for section mismatch checks
    that uses the defualt linker script so section does not get renamed.

    The vmlinux.o may later be used as part of the the final link of vmlinux
    but for now it is used fo section mismatch only.
    For a defconfig build this is instant but for an allyesconfig this
    add two minutes to a full build (that anyways takes ~2 hours).

    Add -Werror-implicit-function-declaration
    This makes builds fail sooner if something is implicitly defined instead
    of having to wait half an hour for it to fail at the linking stage.

    I have a new root exploit" five minutes after release, but it still

  • b46522394   Revert "[PATCH] x86: Drop cc-options call for all options supported in gcc 3.2+" ... Browse Code »

    This reverts commit c8fdd247255a3a027cd9f66dcf93e6847d1d2f85.

    It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc
    bug. The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the
    the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2"
    is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64
    will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that
    the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to
    generate 32-bit code.

  • c53aeca05   kbuild: complain about missing system calls ... Browse Code »

    Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
    automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
    implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
    On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
    init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
    init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
    init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented

    The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
    that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

    Other contributors to this patch are Russell King
    and Stéphane Jourdois

    Move tags extracted from the ARCH and include/ sub-trees ahead of
    those from device drivers, so that the former will appear first
    during searches.

    Saves user time during interactive searches for certain patterns
    that happen to find unwanted matches in driver files.

    Example in emacs:
    "M-x find-tag PAGE_SIZE"
    "M-1 M-." (repeated until definition from asm-i386/page.h appears)

  • c8fdd2472   [PATCH] x86: Drop cc-options call for all options supported in gcc 3.2+ ... Browse Code »

    The kernel only supports gcc 3.2+ now so it doesn't make sense
    anymore to explicitely check for options this compiler version
    already has.

    This actually fixes a bug. The -mprefered-stack-boundary check
    never worked because gcc rightly complains

    CC arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s
    cc1: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is not between 4 and 12

    We just never saw the error because of cc-options.
    I changed it to 4 to actually work.

    Tested by compiling i386 and x86-64 defconfig with gcc 3.2.

    Should speed up the build time a tiny bit and improve
    stack usage on i386 slightly.

    Tildes as in path as in filenames are handled correctly now:
    only files, containing tilde '~', are backups, thus are not valid.

    [KJ]:
    Definition of `space' was removed, scripts/Kbuild.include has one.
    That definition was taken right from the GNU make manual, while Kbuild's
    version is original.
