kbuild: thin archives use P option to ar

2017-06-30T00:03:03+00:00

The P option makes ar do full path name matching and can prevent ar from discarding files with duplicate names in some cases of creating thin archives from thin archives. The sh architecture in particular loses some object files from its kernel/cpu/sh*/ directories without this option. This could be a bug in binutils ar, but the P option should not cause any negative effects so it is safe to use to work around this with.

objtool: make it visible in make V=1 output

2017-05-03T04:39:37+00:00

It is currently impossible to see what is going on with objtool when building, so call echo-cmd to see the actions: gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/x86/entry/.entry_64.o.d -nostdinc -isystem ... ./tools/objtool/objtool check "arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o"; Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: Michal Marek Cc: linux-kbuild@vger.kernel.org Cc: Josh Poimboeuf Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for emitting relative CRCs

2017-02-03T16:28:25+00:00

This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following: - introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS - adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols as references into the .rodata section - making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols by the section index (SHN_ABS) - making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

kbuild: cmd_export_list: tighten the sed script

2016-12-11T10:51:43+00:00

When LTO is used, some ___ksymtab_string sections are seen by this sed script, creating lines containing a single ) such as: EXPORT(foo) ) ) EXPORT(bar) Let's make it so the + character is also required for any line to be printed. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

kbuild: improve linker compatibility with lib-ksyms.o build

2016-11-29T14:58:57+00:00

lib-ksyms.o is created by linking an empty input file with a linker script containing the interesting bits. Currently the empty input file is an archive containing nothing, however this causes the gold linker to segfault. I have opened a bug against gold https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20767 However this can be worked around by assembling an empty file to link with instead. The resulting lib-ksyms.o is slightly larger (seemingly due to empty .text, .data, .bss setions added), but final linked output should not be changed.

kbuild: thin archives for multi-y targets

2016-11-29T14:53:19+00:00

THIN_ARCHIVES builds archives for built-in.o targets, have it build multi-y targets as archives as well. This saves another ~15% of the size of intermediate artifacts in the build tree. After this patch, the linker is only used in final link, and special cases like vdsos. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

kbuild: be more careful about matching preprocessed asm ___EXPORT_SYMBOL

2016-11-09T21:29:53+00:00

The CRC code for asm exports grabs the preprocessed asm, finds the ___EXPORT_SYMBOL and turns those into EXPORT_SYMBOL in a C program that can be preprocessed and parsed to create the CRC signatures from the type. The existing regex matching and replacement is too strict, and doesn't deal well with whitespace among other things. The line " EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym)" in a .S file would not match due to initial whitespace, for example, which resulted in x86's ___preempt_schedule failing to get CRCs.
