init: lto: fix PREL32 relocations

2021-01-14T16:21:09Z

With LTO, the compiler can rename static functions to avoid global naming collisions. As initcall functions are typically static, renaming can break references to them in inline assembly. This change adds a global stub with a stable name for each initcall to fix the issue when PREL32 relocations are used.

init: lto: ensure initcall ordering

2021-01-14T16:21:09Z

With LTO, the compiler doesn't necessarily obey the link order for initcalls, and initcall variables need globally unique names to avoid collisions at link time. This change exports __KBUILD_MODNAME and adds the initcall_id() macro, which uses it together with __COUNTER__ and __LINE__ to help ensure these variables have unique names, and moves each variable to its own section when LTO is enabled, so the correct order can be specified using a linker script. The generate_initcall_ordering.pl script uses nm to find initcalls from the object files passed to the linker, and generates a linker script that specifies the same order for initcalls that we would have without LTO. With LTO enabled, the script is called in link-vmlinux.sh through jobserver-exec to limit the number of jobs spawned.

init: use type alignment for kernel parameters

2020-12-01T09:46:27Z

Specify type alignment for kernel parameters instead of sizeof(long). The alignment attribute is used to prevent gcc from increasing the alignment of objects with static extent as an optimisation, something which would mess up the __setup array stride. Using __alignof__(struct obs_kernel_param) rather than sizeof(long) is preferred since it better indicates why it is there and doesn't break should the type size or alignment change. Note that on m68k the alignment of struct obs_kernel_param is actually two and that adding a 1- or 2-byte field to the 12-byte struct would cause a breakage with the current 4-byte alignment.

treewide: Convert macro and uses of section(foo) to section("foo")

2020-10-25T21:51:49Z

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid complications with clang and gcc differences. Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro. Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo"). Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo") even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.

mnt_init(): call shmem_init() unconditionally

2019-07-05T02:01:59Z

No point having two call sites (earlier in init_rootfs() from mnt_init() in case we are going to use shmem-style rootfs, later from do_basic_setup() unconditionally), along with the logics in shmem_init() itself to make the second call a no-op... Signed-off-by: Al Viro

don't bother with registering rootfs

2019-07-05T02:01:59Z

init_mount_tree() can get to rootfs_fs_type directly and that simplifies a lot of things. We don't need to register it, we don't need to look it up *and* we don't need to bother with preventing subsequent userland mounts. That's the way we should've done that from the very beginning. There is a user-visible change, namely the disappearance of "rootfs" from /proc/filesystems. Note that it's been unmountable all along and it didn't show up in /proc/mounts; however, it *is* a user-visible change and theoretically some script might've been using its presence in /proc/filesystems to tell 2.4.11+ from earlier kernels. *IF* any complaints about behaviour change do show up, we could fake it in /proc/filesystems. I very much doubt we'll have to, though. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

block: remove dead elevator code

2018-11-07T20:42:32Z

This removes a bunch of core and elevator related code. On the core front, we remove anything related to queue running, draining, initialization, plugging, and congestions. We also kill anything related to request allocation, merging, retrieval, and completion. Remove any checking for single queue IO schedulers, as they no longer exist. This means we can also delete a bunch of code related to request issue, adding, completion, etc - and all the SQ related ops and helpers. Also kill the load_default_modules(), as all that did was provide for a way to load the default single queue elevator. Tested-by: Ming Lei Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
