<id>urn:sha1:957435b566c9d14afa3cb957b2ba7b57c6eda787</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 86a9df597cdd564d2d29c65897bcad42519e3678 upstream.

I was not seeing my linker flags getting added when using ld-option when
cross compiling with Clang. Upon investigation, this seems to be due to
a difference in how GCC vs Clang handle cross compilation.

GCC is configured at build time to support one backend, that is implicit
when compiling.  Clang is explicit via the use of `-target &lt;triple&gt;` and
ships with all supported backends by default.

GNU Make feature test macros that compile then link will always fail
when cross compiling with Clang unless Clang's triple is passed along to
the compiler. For example:

$ clang -x c /dev/null -c -o temp.o
$ aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld -E temp.o
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
unknown architecture of input file `temp.o' is incompatible with
aarch64 output
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to
0000000000400078
$ echo $?
1

$ clang -target aarch64-linux-android- -x c /dev/null -c -o temp.o
$ aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld -E temp.o
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 00000000004002e4
$ echo $?
0

This causes conditional checks that invoke $(CC) without the target
triple, then $(LD) on the result, to always fail.

<title>kbuild: Add __cc-option macro</title>

cc-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS when it determines
whether an option is supported or not. This is fine for options used to
build the kernel itself, however some components like the x86 boot code
use a different set of flags.

Add the new macro __cc-option which is a more generic version of
cc-option with additional parameters. One parameter is the compiler
with which the check should be performed, the other the compiler options
to be used instead KBUILD_C*FLAGS.

Refactor cc-option and hostcc-option to use __cc-option and move
hostcc-option to scripts/Kbuild.include.

<content type='text'>
Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt says the change for align options
occurred at GCC 3.0, and Documentation/process/changes.rst says the
minimal supported GCC version is 3.2, so it should be safe to hard-code
-falign* options.

Fix the only user arch/x86/Makefile_32.cpu and remove cc-option-align.

Clang will warn about unknown warnings but will not return false
unless -Werror is set. GCC will return false if an unknown
warning is passed.

Adding -Werror make both compiler behave the same.

[arnd: it turns out we need the same patch for testing whether -ffunction-sections
       works right with gcc. I've build tested extensively with this patch
       applied, so let's just merge this one now.]

<title>x86/build: Mostly disable '-maccumulate-outgoing-args'</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=3f135e57a4f76d24ae8d8a490314331f0ced40c5'/>
<id>urn:sha1:3f135e57a4f76d24ae8d8a490314331f0ced40c5</id>
<content type='text'>
The GCC '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' flag is enabled for most configs,
mostly because of issues which are no longer relevant.  For most
configs, and with most recent versions of GCC, it's no longer needed.

Clarify which cases need it, and only enable it for those cases.  Also
produce a compile-time error for the ftrace graph + mcount + '-Os' case,
which will otherwise cause runtime failures.

The main benefit of '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' is that it prevents an
ugly prologue for functions which have aligned stacks.  But removing the
option also has some benefits: more readable argument saves, smaller
text size, and (presumably) slightly improved performance.

Here are the object size savings for 32-bit and 64-bit defconfig
kernels:

      text	   data	    bss	     dec	    hex	filename
  10006710	3543328	1773568	15323606	 e9d1d6	vmlinux.x86-32.before
   9706358	3547424	1773568	15027350	 e54c96	vmlinux.x86-32.after

      text	   data	    bss	     dec	    hex	filename
  10652105	4537576	 843776	16033457	 f4a6b1	vmlinux.x86-64.before
  10639629	4537576	 843776	16020981	 f475f5	vmlinux.x86-64.after

That comes out to a 3% text size improvement on x86-32 and a 0.1% text
size improvement on x86-64.

cc-option tests.

Steps to reproduce:
1) make mrproper
2) make defconfig
3) enable GCC_PLUGINS, GCC_PLUGIN_CYC_COMPLEXITY
4) enable FUNCTION_TRACER (it will select other options as well)
5) make &amp;&amp; make modules

<id>urn:sha1:db547ef1906400eb34682e43035dd4d81b9fdcfb</id>
<content type='text'>
When building with separate object directories and driver specific
Makefiles that add additional header include paths, Kbuild adjusts
the gcc flags so that we include both the directory in the source
tree and in the object tree.

However, due to another bug I fixed earlier, this did not actually
include the correct directory in the object tree, so we know that
we only really need the source tree here. Also, including the
object tree sometimes causes warnings about nonexisting directories
when the include path only exists in the source.

This changes the logic to only emit the -I argument for the srctree,
not for objects. We still need both $(srctree)/$(src) and $(obj)
though, so I'm adding them manually.
