Move CFLAGS_KASAN*, CFLAGS_UBSAN, CFLAGS_KCSAN to Makefile.kasan,
Makefile.ubsan, Makefile.kcsan, respectively.

This commit also avoids the same -fsanitize=* flags being added to
CFLAGS_UBSAN multiple times.

Prior to this commit, the ubsan flags were appended by the '+='
operator, without any initialization. Some build targets such as
'make bindeb-pkg' recurses to the top Makefile, and ended up with
adding the same flags to CFLAGS_UBSAN twice.

Clear CFLAGS_UBSAN with ':=' to make it a simply expanded variable.
This is better than a recursively expanded variable, which evaluates
$(call cc-option, ...) multiple times before Kbuild starts descending
to subdirectories.

There was a request to preprocess the module linker script like we
do for the vmlinux one. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/8/21/512

)

The difference between vmlinux.lds and module.lds is that the latter
is needed for external module builds, thus must be cleaned up by
'make mrproper' instead of 'make clean'. Also, it must be created
by 'make modules_prepare'.

You cannot put it in arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/, which is cleaned up by
'make clean'. I moved arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/module.lds to
arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/asm/module.lds.h, which is included from
scripts/module.lds.S.

scripts/module.lds is fine because 'make clean' keeps all the
build artifacts under scripts/.

You can add arch-specific sections in <asm/module.lds.h>.

This patch adds clang-tidy and the clang static-analyzer as make
targets. The goal of this patch is to make static analysis tools
usable and extendable by any developer or researcher who is familiar
with basic c++.

The current static analysis tools require intimate knowledge of the
internal workings of the static analysis. Clang-tidy and the clang
static analyzers expose an easy to use api and allow users unfamiliar
with clang to write new checks with relative ease.

===Clang-tidy===

Clang-tidy is an easily extendable 'linter' that runs on the AST.
Clang-tidy checks are easy to write and understand. A check consists of
two parts, a matcher and a checker. The matcher is created using a
domain specific language that acts on the AST
(https://clang.llvm.org/docs/LibASTMatchersReference.html).  When AST
nodes are found by the matcher a callback is made to the checker. The
checker can then execute additional checks and issue warnings.

Here is a...

Currently, you need to manually run scripts/gen_compile_commands.py
to create compile_commands.json. It parses all the .*.cmd files found
under the specified directory.

If you rebuild the kernel over again without 'make clean',
.*.cmd files from older builds will create stale entries in
compile_commands.json.

This commit wires up the compile_commands.json rule to Makefile, and
makes it parse only the .*.cmd files involved in the current build.

Pass $(KBUILD_VMLINUX_OBJS), $(KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS), and modules.order
to the script. The objects or archives linked to vmlinux are listed in
$(KBUILD_VMLINUX_OBJS) or $(KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS). All the modules are
listed in modules.order.

You can create compile_commands.json from Make:

  $ make -j$(nproc) CC=clang compile_commands.json

You can also build vmlinux, modules, and compile_commands.json all
together in a single command:

  $ make -j$(nproc) CC=clang all compile_commands.json

It works for M= builds as well. In this case, compile_commands.json
is created in the top directory of the external module.

This is convenient, but it has a drawback; the coverage of the
compile_commands.json is reduced because only the objects linked to
vmlinux or modules are handled. For example, the following C files are
not included in the compile_commands.json:

 - Decompressor source files (arch/*/boot/)
 - VDSO source files
 - C files used to generate intermediates (e.g. kernel/bounds.c)
 - Standalone host programs

I think it is fine for most developers because our main interest is
the kernel-space code.

If you want to cover all the compiled C files, please build the kernel,
then run the script manually as you did before:

  $ make clean    # if you want to remove stale .cmd files [optional]
  $ make -j$(nproc) CC=clang
  $ scripts/gen_compile_commands.py

Here is a note for out-of-tree builds. 'make compile_commands.json'
works with O= option, but please notice compile_commands.json is
created in the object tree instead of the source tree.

Some people may want to have compile_commands.json in the source tree
because Clang Tools searches for it through all parent paths of the
first input source file.

However, you cannot do this for O= builds. Kbuild should never generate
any build artifact in the source tree when O= is given because the
source tree might be read-only. Any write attempt to the source tree
is monitored and the violation may be reported. See the commit log of
8ef14c2c

.

So, the only possible way is to create compile_commands.json in the
object tree, then specify '-p <build-path>' when you use clang-check,
clang-tidy, etc.

Some targets (localyesconfig, localmodconfig, defconfig) hide the
command running, but the others do not.

Users know which Kconfig flavor they are running, so it is OK to hide
the command. Add $(Q) to all commands consistently. If you want to see
the full command running, pass V=1 from the command line.

syncconfig is the exceptional case, which occurs without explicit
command invocation by the user. Display the Kbuild-style log for it.

Recently 0day reported many strange performance changes (regression or
improvement), in which there was no obvious relation between the culprit
commit and the benchmark at the first look, and it causes people to doubt
the test itself is wrong.

Upon further check, many of these cases are caused by the change to the
alignment of kernel text or data, as whole text/data of kernel are linked
together, change in one domain may affect alignments of other domains.

gcc has an option '-falign-functions=n' to force text aligned, and with
that option enabled, some of those performance changes will be gone, like
[1][2][3].

Add this option so that developers and 0day can easily find performance
bump caused by text alignment change, as tracking these strange bump is
quite time consuming.  Though it can't help in other cases like data
alignment changes like [4].

Following is some size data for v5.7 kernel built with a RHEL config used
in 0day:

  19758591  13297002  5529660  38585253	 vmlinux.align32

Raw vmlinux size in bytes:

	v5.7		v5.7+align32

When you clean the build tree for ARCH=arm, you may see the following
error message from 'nm' command:

$ make -j24 ARCH=arm clean

  CLEAN   arch/arm/boot/compressed
  CLEAN   drivers/scsi
  CLEAN   drivers/tty/vt
  CLEAN   arch/arm/boot
  CLEAN   vmlinux.symvers modules.builtin modules.builtin.modinfo

Even if you rerun the same command, the error message will not be
shown despite vmlinux is already gone.

To reproduce it, the parallel option -j is needed. Single thread
cleaning always executes 'archclean', 'vmlinuxclean' in this order,
so vmlinux still exists when arch/arm/boot/compressed/ is cleaned.

Looking at arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile does not help understand
the reason of the error message. Both KBSS_SZ and LDFLAGS_vmlinux are
assigned with '=' operator, hence, they are not expanded unless used.
Obviously, 'make clean' does not use them.

In fact, the root cause exists in the top Makefile:

  export LDFLAGS_vmlinux

Since LDFLAGS_vmlinux is an exported variable, LDFLAGS_vmlinux in
arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile is expanded when scripts/Makefile.clean
has a command to execute. This is why the error message shows up only
when there exist build artifacts in arch/arm/boot/compressed/.

Adding 'unexport LDFLAGS_vmlinux' to arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
will fix it as far as ARCH=arm is concerned, but I think the proper fix
is to get rid of 'export LDFLAGS_vmlinux' from the top Makefile.

LDFLAGS_vmlinux in the top Makefile contains linker flags for the top
vmlinux. LDFLAGS_vmlinux in arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile is for
arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux. They just happen to have the same
variable name, but are used for different purposes. Stop shadowing
LDFLAGS_vmlinux.

This commit passes LDFLAGS_vmlinux to scripts/link-vmlinux.sh via a
command line parameter instead of via an environment variable. LD and
KBUILD_LDFLAGS are exported, but I did the same for consistency. Anyway,
they must be included in cmd_link-vmlinux to allow if_changed to detect
the changes in LD or KBUILD_LDFLAGS.

The following Makefiles are not affected:

  arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/h8300/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/nios2/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/parisc/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/s390/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/sh/boot/romimage/Makefile
  arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile

They use ':=' or '=' to clear the LDFLAGS_vmlinux inherited from the
top Makefile.

We need to take a closer look at the impact to unicore32 and xtensa.

arch/unicore32/boot/compressed/Makefile only uses '+=' operator for
LDFLAGS_vmlinux. So, the decompressor previously inherited the linker
flags from the top Makefile.

However, commit 70fac51f ("unicore32 additional architecture files:
boot process") was merged before commit 1f2bfbd0 ("kbuild: link of
vmlinux moved to a script"). So, I rather consider this is a bug fix of
1f2bfbd0.

arch/xtensa/boot/boot-elf/Makefile is also affected, but this is also
considered a fix for the same reason. It did not inherit LDFLAGS_vmlinux
when commit 4bedea94

 ("[PATCH] xtensa: Architecture support for
Tensilica Xtensa Part 2") was merged. I deleted $(LDFLAGS_vmlinux),
which is now empty.

In addition to -ftrivial-auto-var-init=pattern (used by
CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL now) Clang also supports zero initialization for
locals enabled by -ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero. The future of this flag
is still being debated (see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45497

).
Right now it is guarded by another flag,
-enable-trivial-auto-var-init-zero-knowing-it-will-be-removed-from-clang,
which means it may not be supported by future Clang releases. Another
possible resolution is that -ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero will persist
(as certain users have already started depending on it), but the name
of the guard flag will change.

In the meantime, zero initialization has proven itself as a good
production mitigation measure against uninitialized locals. Unlike pattern
initialization, which has a higher chance of triggering existing bugs,
zero initialization provides safe defaults for strings, pointers, indexes,
and sizes. On the other hand, pattern initialization remains safer for
return values. Chrome OS and Android are moving to using zero
initialization for production builds.

Performance-wise, the difference between pattern and zero initialization
is usually negligible, although the generated code for zero
initialization is more compact.

This patch renames CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL to CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN
and introduces another config option, CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO, that
enables zero initialization for locals if the corresponding flags are
supported by Clang.

Commit
  10e68b02

 ("Makefile: support compressed debug info")
added support for compressed debug sections.

Support is detected by checking
- does the compiler support -gz=zlib
- does the assembler support --compressed-debug-sections=zlib
- does the linker support --compressed-debug-sections=zlib

However, the gcc driver's support for this option is somewhat
convoluted. The driver's builtin specs are set based on the version of
binutils that it was configured with. It reports an error if the
configure-time linker/assembler (i.e., not necessarily the actual
assembler that will be run) do not support the option, but only if the
assembler (or linker) is actually invoked when -gz=zlib is passed.

The cc-option check in scripts/Kconfig.include does not invoke the
assembler, so the gcc driver reports success even if it does not support
the option being passed to the assembler.

Because the as-option check passes the option directly to the assembler
via -Wa,--compressed-debug-sections=zlib, the gcc driver does not see
this option and will never report an error.

Combined with an installed version of binutils that is more recent than
the one the compiler was built with, it is possible for all three tests
to succeed, yet an actual compilation with -gz=zlib to fail.

Moreover, it is unnecessary to explicitly pass
--compressed-debug-sections=zlib to the assembler via -Wa, since the
driver will do that automatically when it supports -gz=zlib.

Convert the as-option to just -gz=zlib, simplifying it as well as
performing a better test of the gcc driver's capabilities.

If modpost fails to load a symbol dump file, it cannot check unresolved

Currently, external module builds check only $(objtree)/Module.symvers,

The full build runs modpost twice, first for vmlinux.o and second for
modules.

The first pass dumps all the vmlinux symbols into Module.symvers, but
the second pass parses vmlinux again instead of reusing the dump file,
presumably because it needs to avoid accumulating stale symbols.

Loading symbol info from a dump file is faster than parsing an ELF object.
Besides, modpost deals with various issues to parse vmlinux in the second
pass.

A solution is to make the first pass dumps symbols into a separate file,
vmlinux.symvers. The second pass reads it, and parses module .o files.
The merged symbol information is dumped into Module.symvers in the same
way as before.

This makes further modpost cleanups possible.

Also, it fixes the problem of 'make vmlinux', which previously overwrote
Module.symvers, throwing away module symbols.

I slightly touched scripts/link-vmlinux.sh so that vmlinux is re-linked
when you cross this commit. Otherwise, vmlinux.symvers would not be
generated.

Make modules.order depend on $(obj-m), and use if_changed to build it.
This will avoid unneeded update of modules.order, which will be useful
to optimize the modpost stage.

Currently, the second pass of modpost is always invoked. By checking the
timestamp of modules.order, we can avoid the unneeded modpost.

Do not overwrite core-y or drivers-y. Remove libs-y1 and libs-y2.

This will slightly change the link order; drivers-y from arch Makefile
will be linked after virt/built-in.a, but I guess this is not a big
deal.
