e06b8b98da kbuild: allow -fstack-protector to take effect

===
I just read the excellent LWN writeup of the vmsplice
security thing, and that got me wondering why this attack
wasn't stopped by the CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR option...
because it plain should have been...

Some analysis later.. it turns out that the following line
in the top level Makefile, added by you in October 2007,
entirely disables CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR ;(
With this line removed the exploit will be nicely stopped.

CFLAGS          += $(call cc-option, -fno-stack-protector)

Now I realize that certain distros have patched gcc to
compensate for their lack of distro wide CFLAGS, and it's
great to work around that... but would there be a way to NOT
disable this for CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR please?
It would have made this exploit not possible for those kernels
that enable this feature (and that includes distros like Fedora)
===

Move the assignment to KBUILD_CFLAGS up before including
the arch specific Makefile so arch makefiles may override
the setting.

551559e13a kbuild: implement modules.order
When multiple built-in modules (especially drivers) provide the same
capability, they're prioritized by link order specified by the order
listed in Makefile.  This implicit ordering is lost for loadable
modules.

When driver modules are loaded by udev, what comes first in
modules.alias file is selected.  However, the order in this file is
indeterministic (depends on filesystem listing order of installed
modules).  This causes confusion.

The solution is two-parted.  This patch updates kbuild such that it
generates and installs modules.order which contains the name of
modules ordered according to Makefile.  The second part is update to
depmod such that it generates output files according to this file.

Note that both obj-y and obj-m subdirs can contain modules and
ordering information between those two are lost from beginning.
Currently obj-y subdirs are put before obj-m subdirs.

Sam Ravnborg cleaned up Makefile modifications and suggested using awk
to remove duplicate lines from modules.order instead of using separate
C program.

1cacc9ab8b kbuild: fix building with redirected output.
Jan Altenberg <jan.altenberg@linutronix.de> reported that
building with redirected input like this failed:
make O=dir oldconfig bzImage < /dev/null

The problem were caused by a make silentoldconfig being
run before oldconfig and with a non-recent .config the build
failed because silentoldconfig requires non-redirected stdin.

Silentoldconfig was run as a side-effect of having the
top-level Makefile re-made by make.
Introducing an empty rule for the top-level Makefile
(and Kbuild.include) fixed the issue.

80ef88d6d2 x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.config
Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again
can set 64BIT in all.config.

For a fix the diffstat is nice:
 6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)

The patch reverts these commits:
0f855aa64b
-> kconfig: add helper to set config symbol from environment variable

2a113281f5
-> kconfig: use $K64BIT to set 64BIT with all*config targets

Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string
compares so the additional complexity introduced by the
above two patches were not needed.

With this patch we have following behaviour:

# make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
option \ host arch      | 32bit         | 64bit
=====================================================
./.                     | 32bit         | 64bit
ARCH=x86                | 32bit         | 32bit
ARCH=i386               | 32bit         | 32bit
ARCH=x86_64             | 64bit         | 64bit

The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture
takes precedence over the configuration.
So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit
kernel no matter what the configuration says.
The configuration will be updated to 32-bit if it was
configured to 64-bit and the other way around.

This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so
no suprises here.

make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel
but as the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select
between 32-bit and 64-bit using menuconfig.

daa93fab82 x86: enable "make ARCH=x86"
After unification of the Kconfig files and
introducing K64BIT support in kconfig
it required only trivial changes to enable
"make ARCH=x86".

With this patch you can build for x86_64 in several ways:
1) make ARCH=x86_64
2) make ARCH=x86 K64BIT=y
3) make ARCH=x86 menuconfig
   => select 64-bit

Likewise for i386 with the addition that
i386 is default is you say ARCH=x86.

69ee0b3522 kbuild: do not pick up CFLAGS from the environment
Too many people have CFLAGS set to support building userspace.
And now Kbuild picks up CFLAGS this caused troubles.

Although people should realise that setting CFLAGS has
a 'global' effect the impact on the kernel build is a suprise.
So change kbuild to pick up value from KCFLAGS that is
much less used.

When kbuild pick up a value it will warn like this:

When building embedded systems in a cross-compile environment and
populating a target's file system image, we don't want to run the
depmod on the host as we may be building for a completely different

just disable running depmod in the cross-compile case and we just
run depmod on the target at bootup.

In 9 out of 10 cases thats because we forgot to set

to create a new symlink but this is not obvious.

a0f97e06a4 kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CC
The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
pass in additional flags to gcc.

This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
tree and enabling one to use:
make CFLAGS=...
to specify additional gcc commandline options.

One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
use cases has been requested too.

Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k

Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
that nothing got rebuild.

0b35786d77 kbuild: call make once for all targets when O=.. is used
Change the invocations of make in the output directory Makefile and the
main Makefile for separate object trees to pass all goals to one $(MAKE)
via a new phony target "sub-make" and the existing target _all.

When compiling with separate object directories, a separate make is called
in the context of another directory (from the output directory the main
Makefile is called, the Makefile is then restarted with current directory
set to the object tree).  Before this patch, when multiple make command
goals are specified, each target results in a separate make invocation.
With make -j, these invocations may run in parallel, resulting in multiple
commands running in the same directory clobbering each others results.

I did not try to address make -j for mixed dot-config and no-dot-config
targets.  Because the order does matter, a solution was not obvious.
Perhaps a simple check for MAKEFLAGS having -j and refusing to run would
be appropriate.

cf851aa756 kbuild: pass -g to assembler under CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO
The assembler for a while now supports -gdwarf to generate source line info
just like the C compiler does.  Source-level assembly debugging sounds like an
oxymoron, but it is handy to be able to see the right source file and read its
comments rather than just the disassembly.  This patch enables -gdwarf for
assembly files when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y and the assembler supports the option.

Of course no one would use O=$PWD (that's just the testcase),

(Oops - should have been O=/ws/linux/obj-2.6.23!)

18991197b4 Use --build-id ld option
This change passes the --build-id when linking the kernel and when linking
modules, if ld supports it.  This is a new GNU ld option that synthesizes an
ELF note section inside the read-only data.  The note in this section contains
unique identifying bits called the "build ID", which are generated so as to be
different for any two linked ELF files that aren't identical.  The build ID
can be recovered from stripped files, memory dumps, etc.  and used to look up
the original program built, locate debuginfo or other details or history
associated with it.  For normal program linking, the compiler passes
--build-id to ld by default, but the option is needed when using ld directly
as we do.

This reverts commit c8fdd24725.

It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc
bug.  The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the
the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2"
is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64
will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that
the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to
generate 32-bit code.

c53aeca059 kbuild: complain about missing system calls
Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented

The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

c8fdd24725 [PATCH] x86: Drop cc-options call for all options supported in gcc 3.2+
The kernel only supports gcc 3.2+ now so it doesn't make sense
anymore to explicitely check for options this compiler version
already has.

This actually fixes a bug. The -mprefered-stack-boundary check
never worked because gcc rightly complains

  CC      arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s
cc1: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is not between 4 and 12

We just never saw the error because of cc-options.
I changed it to 4 to actually work.

Tested by compiling i386 and x86-64 defconfig with gcc 3.2.

Should speed up the build time a tiny bit and improve
stack usage on i386 slightly.
