commit 07d0408120216b60625c9a5b8012d1c3a907984d upstream.

Currently if CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD is enabled -mrecord-mcount
compiler flag support is tested for every Makefile.

Top 4 cc-option usages:
    511 -mrecord-mcount
     11  -fno-stack-protector
      9 -Wno-override-init
      2 -fsched-pressure

To address that move cc-option from scripts/Makefile.build to top Makefile
and export CC_USING_RECORD_MCOUNT to be used in original place.

While doing that also add -mrecord-mcount to CC_FLAGS_FTRACE (if gcc
actually supports it).

commit ed7d40bc67b8353c677b38c6cdddcdc310c0f452 upstream.

Non gcc-5 builds with CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y and
SKIP_STACK_VALIDATION=1 fail.
Example output:
  /bin/sh: init/.tmp_main.o: Permission denied

commit 96f60dfa5819 ("trace: Use -mcount-record for dynamic ftrace"),
added a mismatched endif.  This causes cmd_objtool to get mistakenly
set.

Relocate endif to balance the newly added -record-mcount check.

<content type='text'>
commit 96f60dfa5819a065bfdd2f2ba0df7d9cbce7f4dd upstream.

gcc 5 supports a new -mcount-record option to generate ftrace
tables directly. This avoids the need to run record_mcount
manually.

Use this option when available.

So far doesn't use -mcount-nop, which also exists now.

This is needed to make ftrace work with LTO because the
normal record-mcount script doesn't run over the link
time output.

It should also improve build times slightly in the general
case.

<content type='text'>
When building to record the mcount locations the kernel uses
KBUILD_CFLAGS but not KBUILD_CPPFLAGS. This means it lacks
-Qunused-arguments when building with clang, resulting in a lot of
noisy warnings.

<title>x86/retpoline: Make CONFIG_RETPOLINE depend on compiler support</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 4cd24de3a0980bf3100c9dcb08ef65ca7c31af48 upstream

Since retpoline capable compilers are widely available, make
CONFIG_RETPOLINE hard depend on the compiler capability.

Break the build when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled and the compiler does not
support it. Emit an error message in that case:

 "arch/x86/Makefile:226: *** You are building kernel with non-retpoline
  compiler, please update your compiler..  Stop."

[dwmw: Fail the build with non-retpoline compiler]

commit d5028ba8ee5a18c9d0bb926d883c28b370f89009 upstream.

Disable retpoline validation in objtool if your compiler sucks, and otherwise
select the validation stuff for CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y (most builds would already
have it set due to ORC).

trip up objtool retpoline validation, fix that.

commit b5bc2231b8ad4387c9641f235ca0ad8cd300b6df upstream.

David requested a objtool validation pass for CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y enabled
builds, where it validates no unannotated indirect  jumps or calls are
left.

Add an additional .discard.retpoline_safe section to allow annotating
the few indirect sites that are required and safe.

<content type='text'>
commit 2a0098d70640dda192a79966c14d449e7a34d675 upstream.

Objtool segfaults when the gold linker is used with
CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y and CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y.

With CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y, the .o file gets passed to the linker before
being passed to objtool.  The gold linker seems to strip unused ELF
symbols by default, which confuses objtool and causes the seg fault when
it's trying to generate ORC metadata.

Objtool should really be running immediately after GCC anyway, without a
linker call in between.  Change the makefile ordering so that objtool is
called before the linker.
