After commit 600605853f ("scripts/gen-btf.sh: Fix .btf.o generation
when compiling for RISCV"), there is an error from llvm-objcopy when
CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled:
llvm-objcopy: error: '.tmp_vmlinux1.btf.o': The file was not recognized as a valid object file
Failed to generate BTF for vmlinux
KBUILD_CFLAGS includes CC_FLAGS_LTO, which makes clang emit an LLVM IR
object, rather than an ELF one as expected by llvm-objcopy.
Most areas of the kernel deal with this by filtering out CC_FLAGS_LTO
from KBUILD_CFLAGS for the particular object or directory but this is
not so easy to do in bash. Just include '-fno-lto' after KBUILD_CFLAGS
to ensure an ELF object is consistently created as the initial .o file.
Additionally, while there is no reported or discovered bug yet, the
absence of KBUILD_CPPFLAGS from this command could result in incorrect
endianness because KBUILD_CPPFLAGS typically contains '-mbig-endian' and
'-mlittle-endian' so that biendian toolchains can be used. Include it in
this ${CC} command to hopefully limit necessary changes to this command
for the foreseeable future.

Extend the "depends on" syntax to support conditional dependencies
using "depends on X if Y". While functionally equivalent to "depends
on X || (Y == n)", "depends on X if Y" is much more readable and
makes the kconfig language uniform in supporting the "if <expr>"
suffix.
This also improves readability for "optional" dependencies, which
are the subset of conditional dependencies where X is Y.
Previously such optional dependencies had to be expressed as
the counterintuitive "depends on X || !X", now this can be
represented as "depends on X if X".
The change is implemented by converting the "X if Y" syntax into the
"X || (Y == n)" syntax during "depends on" token processing.

W=2 builds are heavily polluted by the -Wtype-limits warning.
Here are some W=12 statistics on Linux v6.19-rc1 for an x86_64
defconfig (with just CONFIG_WERROR set to "n") using gcc 14.3.1:
Warning name count percent
-------------------------------------------------
-Wlogical-op 2 0.00 %
-Wmaybe-uninitialized 138 0.20 %
-Wunused-macros 869 1.24 %
-Wmissing-field-initializers 1418 2.02 %
-Wshadow 2234 3.19 %
-Wtype-limits 65378 93.35 %
-------------------------------------------------
Total 70039 100.00 %
As we can see, -Wtype-limits represents the vast majority of all
warnings. The reason behind this is that these warnings appear in
some common header files, meaning that some unique warnings are
repeated tens of thousands of times (once per header inclusion).
Add to this the fact that each warning is coupled with a dozen lines
detailing some macro expansion. The end result is that the W=2 output
is just too bloated and painful to use.
Three years ago, I proposed in [1] modifying one such header to
silence that noise. Because the code was not faulty, Linus rejected
the idea and instead suggested simply removing that warning.
At that time, I could not bring myself to send such a patch because,
despite its problems, -Wtype-limits would still catch the below bug:
unsigned int ret;
ret = check();
if (ret < 0)
error();
Meanwhile, based on another suggestion from Linus, I added a new check
to sparse [2] that would catch the above bug without the useless spam.
With this, remove gcc's -Wtype-limits. People who still want to catch
incorrect comparisons between unsigned integers and zero can now use
sparse instead.
On a side note, clang also has a -Wtype-limits warning but:
* it is not enabled in the kernel at the moment because, contrary to
gcc, clang did not include it under -Wextra.
* it does not warn if the code results from a macro expansion. So,
if activated, it would not cause as much spam as gcc does.
* -Wtype-limits is split into four sub-warnings [3] meaning that if
it were to be activated, we could select which one to keep.
So there is no present need to explicitly disable -Wtype-limits in
clang.

While we can opt in individual subsystems which add the required
annotations, such subsystems inevitably include headers from other
subsystems which may not yet have the right annotations, which then
result in false positive warnings.
Making compatible by adding annotations across all common headers
currently requires an excessive number of __no_context_analysis
annotations, or carefully analyzing non-trivial cases to add the correct
annotations. While this is desirable long-term, providing an incremental
path causes less churn and headaches for maintainers not yet interested
in dealing with such warnings.
Rather than clutter headers unnecessary and mandate all subsystem
maintainers to keep their headers working with context analysis,
suppress all -Wthread-safety warnings in headers. Explicitly opt in
headers with context-enabled primitives.
With this in place, we can start enabling the analysis on more complex
subsystems in subsequent changes.

Context Analysis is a language extension, which enables statically
checking that required contexts are active (or inactive), by acquiring
and releasing user-definable "context locks". An obvious application is
lock-safety checking for the kernel's various synchronization primitives
(each of which represents a "context lock"), and checking that locking
rules are not violated.
Clang originally called the feature "Thread Safety Analysis" [1]. This
was later changed and the feature became more flexible, gaining the
ability to define custom "capabilities". Its foundations can be found in
"Capability Systems" [2], used to specify the permissibility of
operations to depend on some "capability" being held (or not held).
Because the feature is not just able to express "capabilities" related
to synchronization primitives, and "capability" is already overloaded in
the kernel, the naming chosen for the kernel departs from Clang's
"Thread Safety" and "capability" nomenclature; we refer to the feature
as "Context Analysis" to avoid confusion. The internal implementation
still makes references to Clang's terminology in a few places, such as
`-Wthread-safety` being the warning option that also still appears in
diagnostic messages.

Recent changes in BTF generation [1] rely on ${OBJCOPY} command to
update .BTF_ids section data in target ELF files.
This exposed a bug in llvm-objcopy --update-section code path, that
may lead to corruption of a target ELF file. Specifically, because of
the bug st_shndx of some symbols may be (incorrectly) set to 0xffff
(SHN_XINDEX) [2][3].
While there is a pending fix for LLVM, it'll take some time before it
lands (likely in 22.x). And the kernel build must keep working with
older LLVM toolchains in the foreseeable future.
Using GNU objcopy for .BTF_ids update would work, but it would require
changes to LLVM-based build process, likely breaking existing build
environments as discussed in [2].
To work around llvm-objcopy bug, implement --patch_btfids code path in
resolve_btfids as a drop-in replacement for:
${OBJCOPY} --update-section .BTF_ids=${btf_ids} ${elf}
Which works specifically for .BTF_ids section:
${RESOLVE_BTFIDS} --patch_btfids ${btf_ids} ${elf}
This feature in resolve_btfids can be removed at some point in the
future, when llvm-objcopy with a relevant bugfix becomes common.

Since commit e7e2941300 ("kbuild: split device tree build rules into

blob that is not specified in a make rule
like:

Before the mentioned commit, one could copy a dts file to e.g.
arch/arm64/boot/dts/ (or a new subdirectory) and then convert it to a dtb
file using:
make ARCH=arm64 foo.dtb
In this scenario, both 'dtb-y' and 'dtb-' are empty, and the inclusion of
scripts/Makefile.dtbs relies on 'targets' to contain the MAKECMDGOALS. The
value of 'targets', however, is only final later in the code.
Move the conditional include of scripts/Makefile.dtbs down to where the
value of 'targets' is final. Since Makefile.dtbs updates 'always-y' which is
used as a prerequisite in the build rule, the build rule also needs to move
down.

The USE_PKCS7 code in sign-file utilizes PKCS7_sign(), which allows signing
only with SHA-1. Since SHA-1 support for module signing has been removed,
drop the use of the OpenSSL PKCS7 API by the tool in favor of using only
the newer CMS API.
The use of the PKCS7 API is selected by the following:
#if defined(LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER) || \
OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x10000000L || \
defined(OPENSSL_NO_CMS)
#define USE_PKCS7
#endif
Looking at the individual ifdefs:
* LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER: LibreSSL added the CMS API implementation from
OpenSSL in 3.1.0, making the ifdef no longer relevant. This version was
released on April 8, 2020.
* OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x10000000L: OpenSSL 1.0.0 was released on March
29, 2010. Supporting earlier versions should no longer be necessary. The
file Documentation/process/changes.rst already states that at least
version 1.0.0 is required to build the kernel.
* OPENSSL_NO_CMS: OpenSSL can be configured with "no-cms" to disable CMS
support. In this case, sign-file will no longer be usable. The CMS API
support is now required.
In practice, since distributions now typically sign modules with SHA-2, for
which sign-file already required CMS API support, removing the USE_PKCS7
code shouldn't cause any issues.

Enhance the coccicheck script to filter *.cocci files based on the

This error occurs when a .cocci file does not define a 'virtual <MODE>'

For example:

In this case, running "secs_to_jiffies.cocci" would trigger the error

[nathan: Minor commit message clean ups]
Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
Currently resolve_btfids updates .BTF_ids section of an ELF file
in-place, based on the contents of provided BTF, usually within the
same input file, and optionally a BTF base.
Change resolve_btfids behavior to enable BTF transformations as part
of its main operation. To achieve this, in-place ELF write in
resolve_btfids is replaced with generation of the following binaries:
* ${1}.BTF with .BTF section data
* ${1}.BTF_ids with .BTF_ids section data if it existed in ${1}
* ${1}.BTF.base with .BTF.base section data for out-of-tree modules
The execution of resolve_btfids and consumption of its output is
orchestrated by scripts/gen-btf.sh introduced in this patch.
The motivation for emitting binary data is that it allows simplifying
resolve_btfids implementation by delegating ELF update to the $OBJCOPY
tool [1], which is already widely used across the codebase.
There are two distinct paths for BTF generation and resolve_btfids
application in the kernel build: for vmlinux and for kernel modules.
For the vmlinux binary a .BTF section is added in a roundabout way to
ensure correct linking. The patch doesn't change this approach, only
the implementation is a little different.
Before this patch it worked as follows:
* pahole consumed .tmp_vmlinux1 [2] and added .BTF section with
llvm-objcopy [3] to it
* then everything except the .BTF section was stripped from .tmp_vmlinux1
into a .tmp_vmlinux1.bpf.o object [2], later linked into vmlinux
* resolve_btfids was executed later on vmlinux.unstripped [4],
updating it in-place
After this patch gen-btf.sh implements the following:
* pahole consumes .tmp_vmlinux1 and produces a *detached* file with
raw BTF data
* resolve_btfids consumes .tmp_vmlinux1 and detached BTF to produce
(potentially modified) .BTF, and .BTF_ids sections data
* a .tmp_vmlinux1.bpf.o object is then produced with objcopy copying
BTF output of resolve_btfids
* .BTF_ids data gets embedded into vmlinux.unstripped in
link-vmlinux.sh by objcopy --update-section
For kernel modules, creating a special .bpf.o file is not necessary,
and so embedding of sections data produced by resolve_btfids is
straightforward with objcopy.
With this patch an ELF file becomes effectively read-only within
resolve_btfids, which allows deleting elf_update() call and satellite
code (like compressed_section_fix [5]).
Endianness handling of .BTF_ids data is also changed. Previously the
"flags" part of the section was bswapped in sets_patch() [6], and then
Elf_Type was modified before elf_update() to signal to libelf that
bswap may be necessary. With this patch we explicitly bswap entire
data buffer on load and on dump.

Several symbol patterns used to be whitelisted to allow drivers to refer
to functions annotated with __devinit and __devexit, which have since
been removed.
Commit e1dc1bfe5b ("modpost: remove more symbol patterns from the

'*_probe' after a reported warning in an irqchip driver.
Turns out that was indeed an incorrect reference which has now been
fixed by commit 9b685058ca ("irqchip/qcom-irq-combiner: Fix section
mismatch").
A recently added clocksource driver also relies on this suffix to
suppress another valid warning, and that is being fixed separately. [1]
Note that drivers with valid reasons for suppressing the warnings can
use the __ref macros.

where the tracepoints are exported. In this case, the
tracepoint-update.c code thinks tracepoints are used but not defined
and errors out, failing the build.
When tracepoint-update.c detects this case, if it is a module that is
being processed, exit out normally as it is a legitimate case.
- Add tracepoint-update.c to MAINTAINERS file
The tracepoint-update.c file is specific to tracing so add it to the
tracing subsystem in the MAINTAINERS file.

tracing: Fix unused tracepoints when module uses only exported ones
Building the KVM intel module failed to build with UT=1:
no __tracepoint_strings in file: arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.o
make[3]: *** [/work/git/test-linux.git/scripts/Makefile.modfinal:62: arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko] Error 1
The reason is that the module only uses the tracepoints defined and
exported by the main kvm module. The tracepoint-update.c code fails the
build if a tracepoint is used, but there's no tracepoints defined. But
this is acceptable in modules if the tracepoints are defined in the vmlinux
proper or another module and exported.
Do not fail to build if a tracepoint is used but no tracepoints are
defined if the code is a module. This should still never happen for the
vmlinux itself.

- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.

Pull unused tracepoints update from Steven Rostedt:
"Detect unused tracepoints.
If a tracepoint is defined but never used (TRACE_EVENT() created but
no trace_<tracepoint>() called), it can take up to or more than 5K of
memory each. This can add up as there are around a hundred unused
tracepoints with various configs. That is 500K of wasted memory.
Add a make build parameter of "UT=1" to have the build warn if an
unused tracepoint is detected in the build. This allows detection of
unused tracepoints to be upstream so that outreachy and the mentoring
project can have new developers look for fixing them, without having
these warnings suddenly show up when someone upgrades their kernel.
When all known unused tracepoints are removed, then the "UT=1" build
parameter can be removed and unused tracepoints will always warn. This
will catch new unused tracepoints after the current ones have been
removed.
Summary:
- Separate out elf functions from sorttable.c
Move out the ELF parsing functions from sorttable.c so that the
tracing tooling can use it.
- Add a tracepoint verifier tool to the build process
If "UT=1" is added to the kernel command line, any unused
tracepoints will trigger a warning at build time.
- Do not warn about unused tracepoints for tracepoints that are
exported
There are sever cases where a tracepoint is created by the kernel
and used by modules. Since there's no easy way to detect if these
are truly unused since the users are in modules, if a tracepoint is
exported, assume it will eventually be used by a module. Note,
there's not many exported tracepoints so this should not be a
problem to ignore them.
- Have building of modules also detect unused tracepoints
Do not only check the main vmlinux for unused tracepoints, also
check modules. If a module is defining a tracepoint it should be
using it.
- Add the tracepoint-update program to the ignore file
The new tracepoint-update program needs to be ignored by git"
