[ 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.

<id>urn:sha1:893ab00439a45513cae55781fc8e3b7108ee1cda</id>
<content type='text'>
Some Makefiles already pass -fno-stack-protector unconditionally.
For example, arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile, arch/x86/xen/Makefile.

No problem report so far about hard-coding this option. So, we can
assume all supported compilers know -fno-stack-protector.

GCC 4.8 and Clang support this option (https://godbolt.org/z/_HDGzN)

Get rid of cc-option from -fno-stack-protector.

Remove CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE, which is always 'y'.

Note:
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile adds -fno-stack-protector twice, first
unconditionally, and second conditionally. I removed the second one.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Allow ld.lld to link the VDSO</title>

<id>urn:sha1:22235ef34a9745c4964c5aa11d57d5ce0b0117de</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, when linking with ld.lld, this warning pops up:

    arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:70: MIPS VDSO requires binutils &gt;= 2.25

CONFIG_LD_VERSION is set with scripts/ld-version.sh, which is specific
to GNU ld. It returns 0 for ld.lld so CONFIG_MIPS_LD_CAN_LINK_VDSO does
not set.

ld.lld has a completely different versioning scheme (as it follows
LLVM's versioning) and it does not have the issue mentioned in the
comment block so it should be allowed to link the VDSO.

With this patch, the VDSO successfully links and shows P_MIPS_PC32 in
vgettimeofday.o.

$ llvm-objdump -Dr arch/mips/vdso/vgettimeofday.o | grep R_MIPS_PC32
			00000024:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start
			000000b0:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start
			000002bc:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2ff906994b6c2b949c5bf65330a8abb5dde9c8e5</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the VDSO is being linked through $(CC). This does not match
how the rest of the kernel links objects, which is through the $(LD)
variable.

When clang is built in a default configuration, it first attempts to use
the target triple's default linker then the system's default linker,
unless told otherwise through -fuse-ld=... We do not use -fuse-ld=
because it can be brittle and we have support for invoking $(LD)
directly. See commit fe00e50b2db8c ("ARM: 8858/1: vdso: use $(LD)
instead of $(CC) to link VDSO") and commit 691efbedc60d2 ("arm64: vdso:
use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO") for examples of doing this in
the VDSO.

Do the same thing here. Replace the custom linking logic with $(cmd_ld)
and ldflags-y so that $(LD) is respected. We need to explicitly add two
flags to the linker that were implicitly passed by the compiler:
-G 0 (which comes from ccflags-vdso) and --eh-frame-hdr.

Before this patch (generated by adding '-v' to VDSO_LDFLAGS):

&lt;gcc_prefix&gt;/libexec/gcc/mips64-linux/9.3.0/collect2 \
-plugin &lt;gcc_prefix&gt;/libexec/gcc/mips64-linux/9.3.0/liblto_plugin.so \
-plugin-opt=&lt;gcc_prefix&gt;/libexec/gcc/mips64-linux/9.3.0/lto-wrapper \

-L&lt;gcc_prefix&gt;/lib/gcc/mips64-linux/9.3.0/../../../../mips64-linux/lib \
-Bsymbolic \
--no-undefined \
-soname=linux-vdso.so.1 \
-EB \
--hash-style=sysv \
--build-id \
-T arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds \
arch/mips/vdso/elf.o \
arch/mips/vdso/vgettimeofday.o \
arch/mips/vdso/sigreturn.o

After this patch:

&lt;gcc_prefix&gt;/bin/mips64-linux-ld \
-m elf64btsmip \
-Bsymbolic \
--no-undefined \
-soname=linux-vdso.so.1 \
-EB \
-nostdlib \
-shared \
-G 0 \
--eh-frame-hdr \
--hash-style=sysv \
--build-id \

arch/mips/vdso/elf.o \
arch/mips/vdso/vgettimeofday.o
arch/mips/vdso/sigreturn.o \
-o arch/mips/vdso/vdso.so.dbg.raw

Note that we leave behind -mips64r2. Turns out that ld ignores it (see
get_emulation in ld/ldmain.c). This is true of current trunk and 2.23,
which is the minimum supported version for the kernel:

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=ld/ldmain.c;hb=aa4209e7b679afd74a3860ce25659e71cc4847d5#l593

Before this patch, LD=ld.lld did nothing:

$ llvm-readelf -p.comment arch/mips/vdso/vdso.so.dbg | sed 's/(.*//'
String dump of section '.comment':
[     0] ClangBuiltLinux clang version 11.0.0

After this patch, it does:

$ llvm-readelf -p.comment arch/mips/vdso/vdso.so.dbg | sed 's/(.*//'
String dump of section '.comment':
[     0] Linker: LLD 11.0.0

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Move disabling the VDSO logic to Kconfig</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e91946d6d93ef6167bd3b1456f163d1585095ea1</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit 9553d16fa671 ("init/kconfig: Add LD_VERSION Kconfig"), we
have access to GNU ld's version at configuration time. As a result, we
can make it clearer under what configuration circumstances the MIPS VDSO
needs to be disabled.

This is a prerequisite for getting rid of the MIPS VDSO binutils
warning and linking the VDSO when LD is ld.lld. Wrapping the call to
ld-ifversion with CONFIG_LD_IS_LLD does not work because the config
values are wiped away during 'make clean'.

<title>MIPS: vdso: Wrap -mexplicit-relocs in cc-option</title>

<id>urn:sha1:72cf3b3df423c1bbd8fa1056fed009d3a260f8a9</id>
<content type='text'>
Clang does not support this option and errors out:

clang-11: error: unknown argument: '-mexplicit-relocs'

Clang does not appear to need this flag like GCC does because the jalr
check that was added in commit 976c23af3ee5 ("mips: vdso: add build
time check that no 'jalr t9' calls left") passes just fine with

$ make ARCH=mips CC=clang CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- malta_defconfig arch/mips/vdso/

even before commit d3f703c4359f ("mips: vdso: fix 'jalr t9' crash in
vdso code").

-mrelax-pic-calls has been supported since clang 9, which is the
earliest version that could build a working MIPS kernel, and it is the
default for clang so just leave it be.
