kbuild: add generic support for built-in boot DTBs

2024-11-04T08:53:09Z

Some architectures embed boot DTBs in vmlinux. A potential issue for these architectures is a race condition during parallel builds because Kbuild descends into arch/*/boot/dts/ twice. One build thread is initiated by the 'dtbs' target, which is a prerequisite of the 'all' target in the top-level Makefile: ifdef CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE all: dtbs endif For architectures that support the built-in boot dtb, arch/*/boot/dts/ is visited also during the ordinary directory traversal in order to build obj-y objects that wrap DTBs. Since these build threads are unaware of each other, they can run simultaneously during parallel builds. This commit introduces a generic build rule to scripts/Makefile.vmlinux to support embedded boot DTBs in a race-free way. Architectures that want to use this rule need to select CONFIG_GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB. After the migration, Makefiles under arch/*/boot/dts/ will be visited only once to build only *.dtb files. This change also aims to unify the CONFIG options used for built-in DTBs support. Currently, different architectures use different CONFIG options for the same purposes. With this commit, the CONFIG options will be unified as follows: - CONFIG_GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB This enables the generic rule for built-in boot DTBs. This will be renamed to CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB after all architectures migrate to the generic rule. - CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME This specifies the path to the embedded DTB. (relative to arch/*/boot/dts/) - CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_ALL If this is enabled, all DTB files compiled under arch/*/boot/dts/ are embedded into vmlinux. Only used by MIPS. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: Add generic hook for architectures to use before the final vmlinux link

2024-10-31T00:00:54Z

On powerpc, we would like to be able to make a pass on vmlinux.o and generate a new object file to be linked into vmlinux. Add a generic pass in Makefile.vmlinux that architectures can use for this purpose. Architectures need to select CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_PRE_LINK_VMLINUX and must provide arch//tools/Makefile with .arch.vmlinux.o target, which will be invoked prior to the final vmlinux link step.

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov: - Introduce '__attribute__((bpf_fastcall))' for helpers and kfuncs with corresponding support in LLVM. It is similar to existing 'no_caller_saved_registers' attribute in GCC/LLVM with a provision for backward compatibility. It allows compilers generate more efficient BPF code assuming the verifier or JITs will inline or partially inline a helper/kfunc with such attribute. bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx, bpf_rdonly_cast, bpf_get_smp_processor_id are the first set of such helpers. - Harden and extend ELF build ID parsing logic. When called from sleepable context the relevants parts of ELF file will be read to find and fetch .note.gnu.build-id information. Also harden the logic to avoid TOCTOU, overflow, out-of-bounds problems. - Improvements and fixes for sched-ext: - Allow passing BPF iterators as kfunc arguments - Make the pointer returned from iter_next method trusted - Fix x86 JIT convergence issue due to growing/shrinking conditional jumps in variable length encoding - BPF_LSM related: - Introduce few VFS kfuncs and consolidate them in fs/bpf_fs_kfuncs.c - Enforce correct range of return values from certain LSM hooks - Disallow attaching to other LSM hooks - Prerequisite work for upcoming Qdisc in BPF: - Allow kptrs in program provided structs - Support for gen_epilogue in verifier_ops - Important fixes: - Fix uprobe multi pid filter check - Fix bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul helpers - Track equal scalars history on per-instruction level - Fix tailcall hierarchy on x86 and arm64 - Fix signed division overflow to prevent INT_MIN/-1 trap on x86 - Fix get kernel stack in BPF progs attached to tracepoint:syscall - Selftests: - Add uprobe bench/stress tool - Generate file dependencies to drastically improve re-build time - Match JIT-ed and BPF asm with __xlated/__jited keywords - Convert older tests to test_progs framework - Add support for RISC-V - Few fixes when BPF programs are compiled with GCC-BPF backend (support for GCC-BPF in BPF CI is ongoing in parallel) - Add traffic monitor - Enable cross compile and musl libc * tag 'bpf-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next: (260 commits) btf: require pahole 1.21+ for DEBUG_INFO_BTF with default DWARF version btf: move pahole check in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh to lib/Kconfig.debug btf: remove redundant CONFIG_BPF test in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh bpf: Call the missed kfree() when there is no special field in btf bpf: Call the missed btf_record_free() when map creation fails selftests/bpf: Add a test case to write mtu result into .rodata selftests/bpf: Add a test case to write strtol result into .rodata selftests/bpf: Rename ARG_PTR_TO_LONG test description selftests/bpf: Fix ARG_PTR_TO_LONG {half-,}uninitialized test bpf: Zero former ARG_PTR_TO_{LONG,INT} args in case of error bpf: Improve check_raw_mode_ok test for MEM_UNINIT-tagged types bpf: Fix helper writes to read-only maps bpf: Remove truncation test in bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul helpers bpf: Fix bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul helpers for 32bit selftests/bpf: Add tests for sdiv/smod overflow cases bpf: Fix a sdiv overflow issue libbpf: Add bpf_object__token_fd accessor docs/bpf: Add missing BPF program types to docs docs/bpf: Add constant values for linkages bpf: Use fake pt_regs when doing bpf syscall tracepoint tracing ...

btf: move pahole check in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh to lib/Kconfig.debug

2024-09-14T03:03:29Z

When DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5 is selected, pahole 1.21+ is required to enable DEBUG_INFO_BTF. When DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 or DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT is selected, DEBUG_INFO_BTF can be enabled without pahole installed, but a build error will occur in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: LD .tmp_vmlinux1 BTF: .tmp_vmlinux1: pahole (pahole) is not available Failed to generate BTF for vmlinux Try to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF We did not guard DEBUG_INFO_BTF by PAHOLE_VERSION when previously discussed [1]. However, commit 613fe1692377 ("kbuild: Add CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION") added CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION after all. Now several CONFIG options, as well as the combination of DEBUG_INFO_BTF and DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5, are guarded by PAHOLE_VERSION. The remaining compile-time check in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh now appears to be an awkward inconsistency. This commit adopts Nathan's original work.

kbuild: remove recent dependency on "truncate" program

2024-09-07T08:24:08Z

Remove the recently-added dependency on the truncate program for building the kernel. truncate is not available when building the kernel under Yocto. It could be added, but it would be better just to avoid the unnecessary dependency.
