kbuild: explicitly specify the build id style

2020-11-18T18:22:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit a968433723310f35898b4a2f635a7991aeef66b1 ] ld's --build-id defaults to "sha1" style, while lld defaults to "fast". The build IDs are very different between the two, which may confuse programs that reference them. Signed-off-by: Bill Wendling Acked-by: David S.

ARM: vdso: Don't use gcc plugins for building vgettimeofday.c

2020-06-24T14:48:27+00:00

Don't use gcc plugins for building arch/arm/vdso/vgettimeofday.c to avoid unneeded instrumentation. As previously discussed[1]: arm_ssp_per_task_plugin.c 32-bit ARM only (but likely needs disabling for 32-bit ARM vDSO?) cyc_complexity_plugin.c compile-time reporting only latent_entropy_plugin.c this shouldn't get triggered for the vDSO (no __latent_entropy nor __init attributes in vDSO), but perhaps explicitly disabling it would be a sensible thing to do, just for robustness? randomize_layout_plugin.c this shouldn't get triggered (again, lacking attributes), but should likely be disabled too. sancov_plugin.c This should be tracking the KCOV directly (see scripts/Makefile.kcov), which is already disabled here. structleak_plugin.c This should be fine in the vDSO, but there's no security boundary here, so it wouldn't be important to KEEP it enabled.

kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-y

2020-02-03T16:53:07+00:00

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004. It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration. This commit renames like follows: always -> always-y hostprogs-y -> hostprogs So, scripts/Makefile will look like this: always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ... always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ... ... hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m) I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier. The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward compatibility for a while.

ARM: vdso: Set BUILD_VDSO32 and provide 32bit fallbacks

2020-01-14T11:20:43+00:00

Setting BUILD_VDSO32 is required to expose the legacy 32bit interfaces in the generic VDSO code which are going to be hidden behind an #ifdef BUILD_VDSO32. The 32bit fallbacks are necessary to remove the existing VDSO_HAS_32BIT_FALLBACK hackery.

ARM: 8932/1: Add clock_gettime64 entry point

2019-11-15T22:21:15+00:00

With the release of Linux 5.1 has been added a new syscall, clock_gettime64, that provided a 64 bit time value for a specified clock_ID to make the kernel Y2038 safe on 32 bit architectures. Update the arm specific vDSO library accordingly with what it has been done for the kernel syscall exposing the clock_gettime64 entry point.

ARM: 8931/1: Add clock_getres entry point

2019-11-15T22:21:14+00:00

The generic vDSO library provides an implementation of clock_getres() that can be leveraged by each architecture. Add clock_getres() entry point on arm to be on pair with arm64. Signed-off-by: Vincenzo Frascino Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8930/1: Add support for generic vDSO

2019-11-15T22:21:12+00:00

The arm vDSO library requires some adaptations to take advantage of the newly introduced generic vDSO library. Introduce the following changes: - Modification vdso.c to be compliant with the common vdso datapage - Use of lib/vdso for gettimeofday - Implementation of elf note Signed-off-by: Vincenzo Frascino Signed-off-by: Russell King
