When CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, additional intermediate *.prelink.o is created
for each module. Also, objtool is postponed until LLVM IR is converted
to ELF.
CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT works in a similar way to postpone objtool until
objects are merged together.
This commit stops generating *.prelink.o, so the build flow will look
similar with/without LTO.
The following figures show how the LTO build currently works, and
how this commit is changing it.
Current build flow
==================
[1] single-object module
$(LD)
$(CC) +objtool $(LD)
foo.c --------------------> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko
(LLVM IR) (ELF) | (ELF)
|
foo.mod.o --/
(LLVM IR)
[2] multi-object module
$(LD)
$(CC) $(AR) +objtool $(LD)
foo1.c -----> foo1.o -----> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko
| (archive) (ELF) | (ELF)
foo2.c -----> foo2.o --/ |
(LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/
(LLVM IR)
One confusion is that foo.o in multi-object module is an archive
despite of its suffix.
New build flow
==============
[1] single-object module
Since there is only one object, there is no need to keep the LLVM IR.
Use $(CC)+$(LD) to generate an ELF object in one build rule. When LTO
is disabled, $(LD) is unneeded because $(CC) produces an ELF object.
$(CC)+$(LD)+objtool $(LD)
foo.c ----------------------------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko
(ELF) | (ELF)
|
foo.mod.o --/
(LLVM IR)
[2] multi-object module
Previously, $(AR) was used to combine LLVM IR files into an archive,
but there was no technical reason to do so. Use $(LD) to merge them
into a single ELF object.
$(LD)
$(CC) +objtool $(LD)
foo1.c ---------> foo1.o ---------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko
| (ELF) | (ELF)
foo2.c ---------> foo2.o ----/ |
(LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/

The return value of is_arm_mapping_symbol() is unpredictable when "$"
is passed in.
strchr(3) says:
The strchr() and strrchr() functions return a pointer to the matched
character or NULL if the character is not found. The terminating null
byte is considered part of the string, so that if c is specified as
'\0', these functions return a pointer to the terminator.
When str[1] is '\0', strchr("axtd", str[1]) is not NULL, and str[2] is
referenced (i.e. buffer overrun).
Test code
---------
char str1[] = "abc";
char str2[] = "ab";
strcpy(str1, "$");
strcpy(str2, "$");
printf("test1: %d\n", is_arm_mapping_symbol(str1));

With the `-z unique-symbol` linker flag or any similar mechanism,
it is possible to trigger the following:
ERROR: modpost: "param_set_uint.0" [vmlinux] is a static EXPORT_SYMBOL
The reason is that for now the condition from remove_dot():
if (m && (s[n + m] == '.' || s[n + m] == 0))
which was designed to test if it's a dot or a '\0' after the suffix
is never satisfied.
This is due to that `s[n + m]` always points to the last digit of a
numeric suffix, not on the symbol next to it (from a custom debug
print added to modpost):
param_set_uint.0, s[n + m] is '0', s[n + m + 1] is '\0'
So it's off-by-one and was like that since 2014.
Fix this for the sake of any potential upcoming features, but don't
bother stable-backporting, as it's well hidden -- apart from that
LD flag, it can be triggered only with GCC LTO which never landed
upstream.

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.

Currently, CONFIG_MODVERSIONS needs extra link to embed the symbol
versions into ELF objects. Then, modpost extracts the version CRCs
from them.
The following figures show how it currently works, and how I am trying
to change it.
Current implementation
======================
|----------|
embed CRC -------------------------->| final |
$(CC) $(LD) / |---------| | link for |
-----> *.o -------> *.o -->| modpost | | vmlinux |
/ / | |-- *.mod.c -->| or |
/ genksyms / |---------| | module |
*.c ------> *.symversions |----------|
Genksyms outputs the calculated CRCs in the form of linker script
(*.symversions), which is used by $(LD) to update the object.
If CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, the build process is much more complex. Embedding
the CRCs is postponed until the LLVM bitcode is converted into ELF,
creating another intermediate *.prelink.o.
However, this complexity is unneeded. There is no reason why we must
embed version CRCs in objects so early.
There is final link stage for vmlinux (scripts/link-vmlinux.sh) and
modules (scripts/Makefile.modfinal). We can link CRCs at the very last
moment.
New implementation
==================
|----------|
--------------------------------------->| final |
$(CC) / |---------| | link for |
-----> *.o ---->| | | vmlinux |
/ | modpost |--- .vmlinux.export.c -->| or |
/ genksyms | |--- *.mod.c ------------>| module |
*.c ------> *.cmd -->|---------| |----------|
Pass the symbol versions to modpost as separate text data, which are
available in *.cmd files.
This commit changes modpost to extract CRCs from *.cmd files instead of
from ELF objects.

There were more EXPORT_SYMBOL types in the past. The following commits
removed unused ones.
- f1c3d73e973c ("module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE")
- 367948220fce ("module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*")
There are 3 remaining in enum export, but export_unknown does not make
any sense because we never expect such a situation like "we do not know
how it was exported".
If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name
does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an
exported symbol.
It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined:
int __ksymtab_foo;
Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable
name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either).
Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not
the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case.
With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes
boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL).
I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true.
Only GPL-compatible modules can use it.
I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is
unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.

Currently, sym_add_exported() does not allocate a symbol if the same
name symbol already exists in the hash table.
This does not reflect the real use cases. You can let an external
module override the in-tree one. In this case, the external module
will export the same name symbols as the in-tree one. However,
modpost simply ignores those symbols, then Module.symvers for the
external module loses its symbols.
sym_add_exported() should allocate a new symbol.

This is currently a warning, but I think modpost should stop building
in this case.
If the same symbol is exported multiple times and we let it keep going,
the sanity check becomes difficult.
Only the legitimate case is that an external module overrides the
corresponding in-tree module to provide a different implementation
with the same interface.
Also, there exists an upstream example that exploits this feature.
$ make M=tools/testing/nvdimm
... builds tools/testing/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko. This is a mocked module
that overrides the symbols from drivers/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko.

Currently, mod->gpl_compatible is tristate; it is set to -1 by default,

Maybe, -1 was chosen to represent the 'unknown' license, but it is not
useful.
The current code:
if (!mod->gpl_compatible)

... only cares whether gpl_compatible is zero or not.
Change it to a bool type with the initial value 'true', which has no
functional change.
The default value should be 'true' instead of 'false'.
Since commit 1d6cd3929360 ("modpost: turn missing MODULE_LICENSE() into

issue. It is not sensible to show another message, "GPL-incompatible

This code goes back to 2003. [1]
The commit is not in this git repository, and might be worth a little
explanation.
You can add EXPORT_SYMBOL() without having its definition in the same
file (but you need to put a declaration).
This is typical when EXPORT_SYMBOL() is added in a C file, but the
actual implementation is in a separate assembly file.
One example is arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c
In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files (but
this limitation does not exist any more). If you forget to add the
definition, this error occurs.
Add a separate, clearer message for this case. It should be an error
even if KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN is given.

It is allowed to add the same objects multiple times to obj-y / obj-m:

It is also allowed to add the same objects multiple times to a composite
module:
obj-m += foo.o
foo-y := foo1.o foo2.o foo2.o foo1.o
This flexibility is useful because the same object might be selected by
different CONFIG options, like this:
obj-m += foo.o
foo-y := foo1.o
foo-$(CONFIG_FOO_X) += foo2.o
foo-$(CONFIG_FOO_Y) += foo2.o
The duplicated objects are omitted at link time. It works naturally in
Makefiles because GNU Make removes duplication in $^ without changing
the order.
It is working well, almost...
A small flaw I notice is, *.mod contains duplication in such a case.
This is probably not a big deal. As far as I know, the only small
problem is scripts/mod/sumversion.c parses the same file multiple
times.
I am fixing this because I plan to reuse *.mod for other purposes,
where the duplication can be problematic.
The code change is quite simple. We already use awk to drop duplicated
lines in modules.order (see cmd_modules_order in the same file).
I copied the code, but changed RS to use spaces as record separators.
I also changed the file format to list one object per line.

The *.mod files have two lines; the first line lists the member objects
of the module, and the second line, if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y, lists
the undefined symbols.
Currently, we generate *.mod after constructing composite modules,
otherwise, we cannot compute the second line. No prerequisite is
required to print the first line.
They are orthogonal. Splitting them into separate commands will ease
further cleanups.
This commit splits the list of undefined symbols out to *.usyms files.
Previously, the list of undefined symbols ended up with a very long
line, but now it has one symbol per line.

There are two call sites for sym_update_namespace().
When the symbol has no namespace, s->namespace is set to NULL,
but the conversion from "" to NULL is done in two different places.
[1] read_symbols()
This gets the namespace from __kstrtabns_<symbol>. If the symbol has
no namespace, sym_get_data(info, sym) returns the empty string "".
namespace_from_kstrtabns() converts it to NULL before it is passed to
sym_update_namespace().
[2] read_dump()
This gets the namespace from the dump file, *.symvers. If the symbol
has no namespace, the 'namespace' is the empty string "", which is
directly passed into sym_update_namespace(). The conversion from
"" to NULL is done in sym_update_namespace().
namespace_from_kstrtabns() exists only for creating this inconsistency.
Remove namespace_from_kstrtabns() so that sym_update_namespace() is

With commit 1743694eb235 ("modpost: stop symbol preloading for

handle_symbol() is called for every symbol in the ELF.
When 'symname' does not start with "__ksymtab", export_from_sec() is
called, and the returned value is stored in 'export'.
It is used in the last part of handle_symbol():
if (strstarts(symname, "__ksymtab_")) {
name = symname + strlen("__ksymtab_");
sym_add_exported(name, mod, export);
}
'export' is used only when 'symname' starts with "__ksymtab_".
So, the value returned by export_from_sec() is never used.
Remove useless export_from_sec(). This makes further cleanups possible.
I put the temporary code:
export = export_unknown;
Otherwise, I would get the compiler warning:
warning: 'export' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
This is apparently false positive because
if (strstarts(symname, "__ksymtab_")
... is a stronger condition than:
if (strstarts(symname, "__ksymtab")
Anyway, this part will be cleaned up by the next commit.

Pull Kbuild update for C11 language base from Masahiro Yamada:
"Kbuild -std=gnu11 updates for v5.18
Linus pointed out the benefits of C99 some years ago, especially
variable declarations in loops [1]. At that time, we were not ready
for the migration due to old compilers.
Recently, Jakob Koschel reported a bug in list_for_each_entry(), which
leaks the invalid pointer out of the loop [2]. In the discussion, we
agreed that the time had come. Now that GCC 5.1 is the minimum
compiler version, there is nothing to prevent us from going to
-std=gnu99, or even straight to -std=gnu11.
Discussions for a better list iterator implementation are ongoing, but
this patch set must land first"

The kernel is moving from using `-std=gnu89` to `-std=gnu11`, permitting
the use of additional C11 features such as for-loop initial declarations.
One contentious aspect of C99 is that it permits mixed declarations and
code, and for now at least, it seems preferable to enforce that
declarations must come first.
These warnings were already enabled in the kernel itself, but not
for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS or the compat VDSO on arch/arm64, which uses
a separate set of CFLAGS.
This patch fixes an existing violation in modpost.c, which is not
reported because of the missing flag in KBUILD_USERCFLAGS:
| scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘match’:
| scripts/mod/modpost.c:837:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement]

Currently with -mindirect-branch=thunk and -mfunction-return=thunk compiler
options expoline thunks are put into individual COMDAT group sections. s390
is the only architecture which has group sections and it has implications
for kpatch and objtool tools support.
Using -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern and -mfunction-return=thunk-extern
is an alternative, which comes with a need to generate all required
expoline thunks manually. Unfortunately modules area is too far away from
the kernel image, and expolines from the kernel image cannon be used.
But since all new distributions (except Debian) build kernels for machine
generations newer than z10, where "exrl" instruction is available, that
leaves only 16 expolines thunks possible.
Provide an option to build the kernel with
-mindirect-branch=thunk-extern and -mfunction-return=thunk-extern for
z10 or newer. This also requires to postlink expoline thunks into all
modules explicitly. Currently modules already contain most expolines
anyhow.
Unfortunately -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern and
-mfunction-return=thunk-extern options support is broken in gcc <= 11.2.
Additional compile test is required to verify proper gcc support.

Similar as other architectures such as arm64, x86 and so on, use
offsets relative to the exception table entry values rather than
absolute addresses for both the exception locationand the fixup.
However, RISCV label difference will actually produce two relocations,
a pair of R_RISCV_ADD32 and R_RISCV_SUB32. Take below simple code for
example:
$ cat test.S
.section .text
1:
nop
.section __ex_table,"a"
.balign 4
.long (1b - .)
.previous
$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc -c test.S
$ riscv64-linux-gnu-readelf -r test.o
Relocation section '.rela__ex_table' at offset 0x100 contains 2 entries:
Offset Info Type Sym. Value Sym. Name + Addend
000000000000 000600000023 R_RISCV_ADD32 0000000000000000 .L1^B1 + 0
000000000000 000500000027 R_RISCV_SUB32 0000000000000000 .L0 + 0
The modpost will complain the R_RISCV_SUB32 relocation, so we need to
patch modpost.c to skip this relocation for .rela__ex_table section.
After this patch, the __ex_table section size of defconfig vmlinux is
reduced from 7072 Bytes to 3536 Bytes.

get_src_version() strips 'o' or 'lto.o' from the end of the object file
path (so, postfixlen is 1 or 5), then adds 'mod'.
If you look at the code closely, mod->name already holds the base path
with the extension stripped.
Most of the code changes made by commit 7ac204b545f2 ("modpost: lto:
strip .lto from module names") was actually unneeded.
sumversion.c does not need strends(), so it can get back local in
modpost.c again.

Expose an 'override_only' helper macro (i.e.
PCI_DRIVER_OVERRIDE_DEVICE_VFIO) for VFIO PCI sub system and add the
required code to prefix its matching entries with "vfio_" in
modules.alias file.
It allows VFIO device drivers to include match entries in the
modules.alias file produced by kbuild that are not used for normal
driver autoprobing and module autoloading. Drivers using these match
entries can be connected to the PCI device manually, by userspace, using
the existing driver_override sysfs.
For example the resulting modules.alias may have:
alias pci:v000015B3d00001021sv*sd*bc*sc*i* mlx5_core
alias vfio_pci:v000015B3d00001021sv*sd*bc*sc*i* mlx5_vfio_pci
alias vfio_pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc*sc*i* vfio_pci
In this example mlx5_core and mlx5_vfio_pci match to the same PCI
device. The kernel will autoload and autobind to mlx5_core but the
kernel and udev mechanisms will ignore mlx5_vfio_pci.
When userspace wants to change a device to the VFIO subsystem it can
implement a generic algorithm:
1) Identify the sysfs path to the device:
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0
2) Get the modalias string from the kernel:
$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/modalias
pci:v000015B3d00001021sv000015B3sd00000001bc02sc00i00
3) Prefix it with vfio_:
vfio_pci:v000015B3d00001021sv000015B3sd00000001bc02sc00i00
4) Search modules.alias for the above string and select the entry that
has the fewest *'s:
alias vfio_pci:v000015B3d00001021sv*sd*bc*sc*i* mlx5_vfio_pci
5) modprobe the matched module name:
$ modprobe mlx5_vfio_pci
6) cat the matched module name to driver_override:
echo mlx5_vfio_pci > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/driver_override
7) unbind device from original module
echo 0000:01:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/driver/unbind
8) probe PCI drivers (or explicitly bind to mlx5_vfio_pci)
echo 0000:01:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe
The algorithm is independent of bus type. In future the other buses with
VFIO device drivers, like platform and ACPI, can use this algorithm as
well.
This patch is the infrastructure to provide the information in the
modules.alias to userspace. Convert the only VFIO pci_driver which results
in one new line in the modules.alias:
alias vfio_pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc*sc*i* vfio_pci
Later series introduce additional HW specific VFIO PCI drivers, such as
mlx5_vfio_pci.
