Normally, invocations of $(HOSTCC) include $(KBUILD_HOSTLDFLAGS), which in turn includes $(HOSTLDFLAGS), which allows users to pass in their own flags when linking. However, the 'has_libelf' test does not, meaning that if a user requests a specific linker via HOSTLDFLAGS=-fuse-ld=..., it is not respected and the build might error. For example, if a user building with clang wants to use all of the LLVM tools without any GNU tools, they might remove all of the GNU tools from their system or PATH then build with $ make HOSTLDFLAGS=-fuse-ld=lld LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 which says use all of the LLVM tools, the integrated assembler, and ld.lld for linking host executables. Without this change, the build will error because $(HOSTCC) uses its default linker, rather than the one requested via -fuse-ld=..., which is GNU ld in clang's case in a default configuration. error: Cannot generate ORC metadata for CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y, please install libelf-dev, libelf-devel or elfutils-libelf-devel make[1]: *** [Makefile:1260: prepare-objtool] Error 1 Add $(KBUILD_HOSTLDFLAGS) to the 'has_libelf' test so that the linker choice is respected.

Since commit 57fd251c ("kbuild: split cc-option and friends to scripts/Makefile.compiler"), some kselftests fail to build. The tools/ directory opted out Kbuild, and went in a different direction. People copied scripts and Makefiles to the tools/ directory to create their own build system. tools/build/Build.include mimics scripts/Kbuild.include, but some tool Makefiles include the Kbuild one to import a feature that is missing in tools/build/Build.include: - Commit ec04aa3a ("tools/thermal: tmon: use "-fstack-protector" only if supported") included scripts/Kbuild.include from tools/thermal/tmon/Makefile to import the cc-option macro. - Commit c2390f16 ("selftests: kvm: fix for compilers that do not support -no-pie") included scripts/Kbuild.include from tools/testing/selftests/kvm/Makefile to import the try-run macro. - Commit 9cae4ace ("selftests/bpf: do not ignore clang failures") included scripts/Kbuild.include from tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile to import the .DELETE_ON_ERROR target. - Commit 0695f8bc ("selftests/powerpc: Handle Makefile for unrecognized option") included scripts/Kbuild.include from tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/pmu/ebb/Makefile to import the try-run macro. Copy what they need into tools/build/Build.include, and make them include it instead of scripts/Kbuild.include.

Currently, clang LTO built vmlinux won't work with pahole. LTO introduced cross-cu dwarf tag references and broke current pahole model which handles one cu as a time. The solution is to merge all cu's as one pahole cu as in [1]. We would like to do this merging only if cross-cu dwarf references happens. The LTO build mode is a pretty good indication for that. In earlier version of this patch ([2]), clang flag -grecord-gcc-switches is proposed to add to compilation flags so pahole could detect "-flto" and then merging cu's. This will increate the binary size of 1% without LTO though. Arnaldo suggested to use a note to indicate the vmlinux is built with LTO. Such a cheap way to get whether the vmlinux is built with LTO or not helps pahole but is also useful for tracing as LTO may inline/delete/demote global functions, promote static functions, etc. So this patch added an elfnote with a new type LINUX_ELFNOTE_LTO_INFO. The owner of the note is "Linux". With gcc 8.4.1 and clang trunk, without LTO, I got $ readelf -n vmlinux Displaying notes found in: .notes Owner Data size Description ... Linux 0x00000004 func description data: 00 00 00 00 ... With "readelf -x ".notes" vmlinux", I can verify the above "func" with type code 0x101. With clang thin-LTO, I got the same as above except the following: description data: 01 00 00 00 which indicates the vmlinux is built with LTO.

scripts/Makefile.modsign is a subset of scripts/Makefile.modinst, and duplicates the code. Let's merge them. By the way, you do not need to run 'make modules_sign' explicitly because modules are signed as a part of 'make modules_install' when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=y. If CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n, mod_sign_cmd is set to 'true', so 'make modules_sign' is not functional. In my understanding, the reason of still keeping this is to handle corner cases like commit 64178cb6 ("builddeb: fix stripped module signatures if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO and CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL are set").

Nathan reports that the mips defconfig emits the following warning: WARNING: modpost: Symbol info of vmlinux is missing. Unresolved symbol check will be entirely skipped. This false-positive happens when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, but no CONFIG option is set to 'm'. Commit a0590473 ("nfs: fix PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT Kconfig default") turned the last 'm' into 'y' for the mips defconfig, and uncovered this issue. In this case, the module feature itself is enabled, but we have no module to build. As a result, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS drops all the instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL. Then, modpost wrongly assumes vmlinux is missing because vmlinux.symvers is empty. (As another false-positive case, you can create a module that does not use any symbol of vmlinux). The current behavior is to entirely suppress the unresolved symbol warnings when vmlinux is missing just because there are too many. I found the origin of this code in the historical git tree. [1] If this is a matter of noisiness, I think modpost can display the first 10 warnings, and the number of suppressed warnings at the end. You will get a bit noisier logs when you run 'make modules' without vmlinux, but such warnings are better to show because you never know the resulting modules are actually loadable or not. This commit changes the following: - If any of input *.symver files is missing, pass -w option to let the module build keep going with warnings instead of errors. - If there are too many (10+) unresolved symbol warnings, show only the first 10, and also the number of suppressed warnings.

The external module build shows the following warning if Module.symvers is missing in the kernel tree. WARNING: Symbol version dump "Module.symvers" is missing. Modules may not have dependencies or modversions. I think this is an important heads-up because the resulting modules may not work as expected. This happens when you did not build the entire kernel tree, for example, you might have prepared the minimal setups for external modules by 'make defconfig && make modules_preapre'. A problem is that 'make modules' creates Module.symvers even without vmlinux. In this case, that warning is suppressed since Module.symvers already exists in spite of its incomplete content. The incomplete (i.e. invalid) Module.symvers should not be created. This commit changes the second pass of modpost to dump symbols into modules-only.symvers. The final Module.symvers is created by concatenating vmlinux.symvers and modules-only.symvers if both exist. Module.symvers is supposed to collect symbols from both vmlinux and modules. It might be a bit confusing, and I am not quite sure if it is an official interface, but presumably it is difficult to rename it because some tools (e.g. kmod) parse it. Signed-off-by:

Documentation/process/changes.rst defines the minimum assembler version (binutils version), but we have never checked it in the build time. Kbuild never invokes 'as' directly because all assembly files in the kernel tree are *.S, hence must be preprocessed. I do not expect raw assembly source files (*.s) would be added to the kernel tree. Therefore, we always use $(CC) as the assembler driver, and commit aa824e0c ("kbuild: remove AS variable") removed 'AS'. However, we are still interested in the version of the assembler acting behind. As usual, the --version option prints the version string. $ as --version | head -n 1 GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1 But, we do not have $(AS). So, we can add the -Wa prefix so that $(CC) passes --version down to the backing assembler. $ gcc -Wa,--version | head -n 1 gcc: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. OK, we need to input something to satisfy gcc. $ gcc -Wa,--...

The kernel build uses various tools, many of which are provided by the same software suite, for example, LLVM and Binutils. When you raise the minimum version of Clang/LLVM, you need to update clang_min_version in scripts/cc-version.sh and also lld_min_version in scripts/ld-version.sh. Kbuild can handle CC=clang and LD=ld.lld independently, but it does not make much sense to maintain their versions separately. Let's create a central place of minimum tool versions so you do not need to touch multiple files. scripts/min-tool-version.sh prints the minimum version of the given tool. Signed-off-by:

When building with LLVM_IAS=1, there is no point to specifying '--prefix=' because that flag is only used to find GNU cross tools, which will not be used indirectly when using the integrated assembler. All of the tools are invoked directly from PATH or a full path specified via the command line, which does not depend on the value of '--prefix='. Sharing commands to reproduce issues becomes a little bit easier without a '--prefix=' value because that '--prefix=' value is specific to a user's machine due to it being an absolute path. Some further notes from Fangrui Song: clang can spawn GNU as (if -f?no-integrated-as is specified) and GNU objcopy (-f?no-integrated-as and -gsplit-dwarf and -g[123]). objcopy is only used for GNU as assembled object files. With integrated assembler, the object file streamer creates .o and .dwo simultaneously. With GNU as, two objcopy commands are needed to extract .debug*.dwo to .dwo files && another command to remove .debug*.dwo sections. A small consequence of this change (to keep things simple) is that '--prefix=' will always be specified now, even with a native build, when it was not before. This should not be an issue due to the way that the Makefile searches for the prefix (based on elfedit's location). This ends up improving the experience for host builds because PATH is better respected and matches GCC's behavior more closely.

This flag was originally added to allow clang to find the GNU cross tools in commit 785f11aa ("kbuild: Add better clang cross build support"). This flag was not enough to find the tools at times so '--prefix' was added to the list in commit ef8c4ed9 ("kbuild: allow to use GCC toolchain not in Clang search path") and improved upon in commit ca9b31f6 ("Makefile: Fix GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR prefix for Clang cross compilation"). Now that '--prefix' specifies a full path and prefix, '--gcc-toolchain' serves no purpose because the kernel builds with '-nostdinc' and '-nostdlib'. This has been verified with self compiled LLVM 10.0.1 and LLVM 13.0.0 as well as a distribution version of LLVM 11.1.0 without binutils in the LLVM toolchain locations.

The patch adding CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP revealed a small defect in the build system: link-vmlinux.sh takes decisions based on CONFIG_* options, but changing one of those does not always lead to vmlinux being linked again. For most of the CONFIG_* knobs referenced previously, this has probably been hidden by those knobs also affecting some object file, hence indirectly also vmlinux. But CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is only handled inside link-vmlinux.sh, and changing CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP=n to CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP=y does not cause the build system to re-link (and hence have vmlinux.map emitted). Since that map file is mostly a debugging aid, this is merely a nuisance which is easily worked around by just deleting vmlinux and building again. But one could imagine other (possibly future) CONFIG options that actually do affect the vmlinux binary but which are not captured through some object file dependency. To fix this, make link-vmlinux.sh emit a .vmlinux.d file in the same format as the dependency files generated by gcc, and apply the fixdep logic to that. I've tested that this correctly works with both in-tree and out-of-tree builds. Signed-off-by:
