commit 1b71c2fb04e7a713abc6edde4a412416ff3158f2 upstream.

scripts/Makefile.clang was changed in the linked commit to move --target from
KBUILD_CFLAGS to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, as that generally has a broader scope.
However that variable is not inspected by the userprogs logic,
breaking cross compilation on clang.

Use both variables to detect bitsize and target arguments for userprogs.

commit feb843a469fb0ab00d2d23cfb9bcc379791011bb upstream.

When preprocessing arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S, the target triple is
not passed to $(CPP) because we add it only to KBUILD_{C,A}FLAGS.

As a result, the linker script is preprocessed with predefined macros
for the build host instead of the target.

Assuming you use an x86 build machine, compare the following:

 $ clang -dM -E -x c /dev/null
 $ clang -dM -E -x c /dev/null -target aarch64-linux-gnu

There is no actual problem presumably because our linker scripts do not
rely on such predefined macros, but it is better to define correct ones.

Move $(CLANG_FLAGS) to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, so that all *.c, *.S, *.lds.S
will be processed with the proper target triple.

[Note]
After the patch submission, we got an actual problem that needs this
commit. (CBL issue 1859)

commit d0afcfeb9e3810ec89d1ffde1a0e36621bb75dca upstream.

A new on by default warning in clang [1] aims to flags instances where
const variables without static or thread local storage or const members
in aggregate types are not initialized because it can lead to an
indeterminate value. This is quite noisy for the kernel due to
instances originating from header files such as:

        |                                  ^

Silencing the instances from typecheck.h is difficult because '= {}' is
not available in older but supported compilers and '= {0}' would cause
warnings about a literal 0 being treated as NULL. While it might be
possible to come up with a local hack to silence the warning for
clang-21+, it may not be worth it since -Wuninitialized will still
trigger if an uninitialized const variable is actually used.

In all audited cases of the "field" variant of the warning, the members
are either not used in the particular call path, modified through other
means such as memset() / memcpy() because the containing object is not
const, or are within a union with other non-const members.

Since this warning does not appear to have a high signal to noise ratio,
just disable it.

commit 84ffc79bfbf70c779e60218563f2f3ad45288671 upstream.

A recent optimization change in LLVM [1] aims to transform certain loop
idioms into calls to strlen() or wcslen(). This change transforms the
first while loop in UniStrcat() into a call to wcslen(), breaking the
build when UniStrcat() gets inlined into alloc_path_with_tree_prefix():

  ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: wcslen
  &gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54)
  &gt;&gt;&gt;               vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix)
  &gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54)
  &gt;&gt;&gt;               vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix)

Disable this optimization with '-fno-builtin-wcslen', which prevents the
compiler from assuming that wcslen() is available in the kernel's C
library.

[ More to the point - it's not that we couldn't implement wcslen(), it's
  that this isn't an optimization at all in the context of the kernel.

  Replacing a simple inlined loop with a function call to the same loop
  is just stupid and pointless if you don't have long strings and fancy
  libraries with vectorization support etc.

  For the regular 'strlen()' cases, we want the compiler to do this in
  order to handle the trivial case of constant strings. And we do have
  optimized versions of 'strlen()' on some architectures. But for
  wcslen? Just no.    - Linus ]
