[ Upstream commit c32969d0362a790fbc6117e0b6a737a7e510b843 ]

arch/sh/Makefile defines and exports ld-bfd to be used by
arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile and arch/sh/boot/romimage/Makefile.
However some shells, including dash, will not pass through environment
variables whose name includes a hyphen.  Usually GNU make does not use
a shell to recurse, but if e.g. $(srctree) contains '~' it will use a
shell here.

Other instances of this problem were previously fixed by commits
2bfbe7881ee0 "kbuild: Do not use hyphen in exported variable name"
and 82977af93a0d "sh: rename suffix-y to suffix_y".

Rename the variable to ld_bfd.

arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile, but vmlinux.bin.all-y is useless
here because it is the same as $(obj)/vmlinux.bin.

<id>urn:sha1:7ce7e984ab2b218d6e92d5165629022fe2daf9ee</id>
<content type='text'>
GZIP-compressed files end with 4 byte data that represents the size
of the original input. The decompressors (the self-extracting kernel)
exploit it to know the vmlinux size beforehand. To mimic the GZIP's
trailer, Kbuild provides cmd_{bzip2,lzma,lzo,lz4,xzkern,zstd22}.
Unfortunately these macros are used everywhere despite the appended
size data is only useful for the decompressors.

There is no guarantee that such hand-crafted trailers are safely ignored.
In fact, the kernel refuses compressed initramdfs with the garbage data.
That is why usr/Makefile overrides size_append to make it no-op.

To limit the use of such broken compressed files, this commit renames
the existing macros as follows:

  cmd_bzip2   --&gt; cmd_bzip2_with_size
  cmd_lzma    --&gt; cmd_lzma_with_size
  cmd_lzo     --&gt; cmd_lzo_with_size
  cmd_lz4     --&gt; cmd_lz4_with_size
  cmd_xzkern  --&gt; cmd_xzkern_with_size
  cmd_zstd22  --&gt; cmd_zstd22_with_size

To keep the decompressors working, I updated the following Makefiles
accordingly:

  arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/h8300/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/parisc/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/s390/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile

I reused the current macro names for the normal usecases; they produce
the compressed data in the proper format.

I did not touch the following:

  arch/arc/boot/Makefile
  arch/arm64/boot/Makefile
  arch/csky/boot/Makefile
  arch/mips/boot/Makefile
  arch/riscv/boot/Makefile
  arch/sh/boot/Makefile
  kernel/Makefile

This means those Makefiles will stop appending the size data.

I dropped the 'override size_append' hack from usr/Makefile.

<content type='text'>
'export suffix-y' does not work reliably because hyphens are disallowed
in shell variables.

A similar issue was fixed by commit 2bfbe7881ee0 ("kbuild: Do not use
hyphen in exported variable name").

If I do similar in dash, ARCH=sh fails to build.

  $ mv linux linux~
  $ cd linux~
  $ dash
  $ make O=foo/bar ARCH=sh CROSS_COMPILE=sh4-linux-gnu- defconfig all
  make[1]: Entering directory '/home/masahiro/linux~/foo/bar'
    [ snip ]
  make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/sh/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.', needed by 'arch/sh/boot/compressed/piggy.o'.  Stop.
  make[3]: *** [/home/masahiro/linux~/arch/sh/boot/Makefile:40: arch/sh/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2
  make[2]: *** [/home/masahiro/linux~/arch/sh/Makefile:194: zImage] Error 2

  make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/masahiro/linux~/foo/bar'
  make: *** [Makefile:219: __sub-make] Error 2

The maintainer of GNU Make stated that there is no consistent way to
export variables that do not meet the shell's naming criteria.
(https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55719)

Consequently, you cannot use hyphens in exported variables.

<title>kbuild: do not quote string values in include/config/auto.conf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:129ab0d2d9f38b9d43df35235fc66c6740d6928b</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.

Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.

Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):

    CONFIG_X="foo bar"

Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.

There are some patterns:

  [1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
  [2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
  [3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
  [4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))

These are not only ugly, but also fragile.

[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
   CONFIG_X=" foo bar "

[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
   CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"

[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.

Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.

This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

    ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
    ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME
    ARC_TUNE_MCPU
    BUILTIN_DTB_SOURCE
    CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH
    CC_VERSION_TEXT
    CFG80211_EXTRA_REGDB_KEYDIR
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR
    EXTRA_TARGETS
    H8300_BUILTIN_DTB
    INITRAMFS_SOURCE
    LOCALVERSION
    MODULE_SIG_HASH
    MODULE_SIG_KEY
    NDS32_BUILTIN_DTB
    NIOS2_DTB_SOURCE
    OPENRISC_BUILTIN_DTB
    SOC_CANAAN_K210_DTB_SOURCE
    SYSTEM_BLACKLIST_HASH_LIST
    SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS
    SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS
    TARGET_CPU
    UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST
    XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_FAMILY
    XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_HW_VER
    XTENSA_VARIANT_NAME

I checked them one by one, and fixed up the code where necessary.

<id>urn:sha1:17b251a290ba84a0c2c5c82df9596cb2e7207ca6</id>
<content type='text'>
Using the linker script to fix an issue where some archs call the
function tracer with just the ip (instruction pointer) and pip (parent
instruction pointer) where as more up to date archs also pass in the
associated ftrace_ops and the ftrace_regs pointer, the generic code
will be called either with two parameters or four. To avoid any C
undefined behavior of calling two parameters to four or four to two
parameter function, two functions are created, where a preprocessor
macro uses the one that matches the architecture. As the function
pointers for them may be different, a typecast is used. But this
triggers issues with newer compilers that will fail due to -Werror.

A linker trick is now used to map the generic function to the function
that is used (note the generic function is only used to set the default
function callback). The linker trick defines ftrace_ops_list_func (the
generic function) to arch_ftrace_ops_list_func (the arch defined one).

Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200617165616.52241bde@oasis.local.home/

But this fails sh arch because their linker script is included in their
compressed image that does not define arch_ftrace_ops_list_func at all

  sh4-linux-ld:arch/sh/boot/compressed/../../kernel/vmlinux.lds:32: undefined symbol `arch_ftrace_ops_list_func' referenced in expression

Included a stub by that name in the misc.c to allow the code to
compile and link, even though it's not used.

This is similar to what was done for ftrace_stub:

  b83b43ffc6e4b ("fgraph: Fix function type mismatches of
  ftrace_graph_return using ftrace_stub")
