commit df01b7cfcef08bf3fdcac2909d0e1910781d6bfd upstream.

`rustc` outputs by default the temporary files (i.e. the ones saved
by `-Csave-temps`, such as `*.rcgu*` files) in the current working
directory when `-o` and `--out-dir` are not given (even if
`--emit=x=path` is given, i.e. it does not use those for temporaries).

Since out-of-tree modules are compiled from the `linux` tree,
`rustc` then tries to create them there, which may not be accessible.

Thus pass `--out-dir` explicitly, even if it is just for the temporary
files.

Similarly, do so for Rust host programs too.

<title>kallsyms: strip LTO-only suffixes from promoted global functions</title>

[ Upstream commit 8cc32a9bbf2934d90762d9de0187adcb5ad46a11 ]

Commit 6eb4bd92c1ce ("kallsyms: strip LTO suffixes from static functions")
stripped all function/variable suffixes started with '.' regardless
of whether those suffixes are generated at LTO mode or not. In fact,
as far as I know, in LTO mode, when a static function/variable is
promoted to the global scope, '.llvm.&lt;...&gt;' suffix is added.

The existing mechanism breaks live patch for a LTO kernel even if
no &lt;symbol&gt;.llvm.&lt;...&gt; symbols are involved. For example, for the following
kernel symbols:
  $ grep bpf_verifier_vlog /proc/kallsyms
  ffffffff81549f60 t bpf_verifier_vlog
  ffffffff8268b430 d bpf_verifier_vlog._entry
  ffffffff8282a958 d bpf_verifier_vlog._entry_ptr
  ffffffff82e12a1f d bpf_verifier_vlog.__already_done
'bpf_verifier_vlog' is a static function. '_entry', '_entry_ptr' and
'__already_done' are static variables used inside 'bpf_verifier_vlog',
so llvm promotes them to file-level static with prefix 'bpf_verifier_vlog.'.
Note that the func-level to file-level static function promotion also
happens without LTO.

Given a symbol name 'bpf_verifier_vlog', with LTO kernel, current mechanism will
return 4 symbols to live patch subsystem which current live patching
subsystem cannot handle it. With non-LTO kernel, only one symbol
is returned.

In [1], we have a lengthy discussion, the suggestion is to separate two
cases:
  (1). new symbols with suffix which are generated regardless of whether
       LTO is enabled or not, and
  (2). new symbols with suffix generated only when LTO is enabled.

The cleanup_symbol_name() should only remove suffixes for case (2).
Case (1) should not be changed so it can work uniformly with or without LTO.

This patch removed LTO-only suffix '.llvm.&lt;...&gt;' so live patching and
tracing should work the same way for non-LTO kernel.
The cleanup_symbol_name() in scripts/kallsyms.c is also changed to have the same
filtering pattern so both kernel and kallsyms tool have the same
expectation on the order of symbols.

commit feb843a469fb0ab00d2d23cfb9bcc379791011bb upstream.

When preprocessing arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S, the target triple is
not passed to $(CPP) because we add it only to KBUILD_{C,A}FLAGS.

As a result, the linker script is preprocessed with predefined macros
for the build host instead of the target.

Assuming you use an x86 build machine, compare the following:

 $ clang -dM -E -x c /dev/null
 $ clang -dM -E -x c /dev/null -target aarch64-linux-gnu

There is no actual problem presumably because our linker scripts do not
rely on such predefined macros, but it is better to define correct ones.

Move $(CLANG_FLAGS) to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, so that all *.c, *.S, *.lds.S
will be processed with the proper target triple.

[Note]
After the patch submission, we got an actual problem that needs this
commit. (CBL issue 1859)

<title>kbuild: Add KBUILD_CPPFLAGS to as-option invocation</title>

commit 43fc0a99906e04792786edf8534d8d58d1e9de0c upstream.

After commit feb843a469fb ("kbuild: add $(CLANG_FLAGS) to
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS"), there is an error while building certain PowerPC
assembly files with clang:

  arch/powerpc/lib/copypage_power7.S: Assembler messages:
  arch/powerpc/lib/copypage_power7.S:34: Error: junk at end of line: `0b01000'
  arch/powerpc/lib/copypage_power7.S:35: Error: junk at end of line: `0b01010'

  arch/powerpc/lib/copypage_power7.S:40: Error: junk at end of line: `0b01010'
  clang: error: assembler command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

as-option only uses KBUILD_AFLAGS, so after removing CLANG_FLAGS from
KBUILD_AFLAGS, there is no more '--target=' or '--prefix=' flags. As a
result of those missing flags, the host target
will be tested during as-option calls and likely fail, meaning necessary
flags may not get added when building assembly files, resulting in
errors like seen above.

Add KBUILD_CPPFLAGS to as-option invocations to clear up the errors.
This should have been done in commit d5c8d6e0fa61 ("kbuild: Update
assembler calls to use proper flags and language target"), which
switched from using the assembler target to the assembler-with-cpp
target, so flags that affect preprocessing are passed along in all
relevant tests. as-option now mirrors cc-option.

commit cff6e7f50bd315e5b39c4e46c704ac587ceb965f upstream.

A future change will move CLANG_FLAGS from KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS to
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS so that '--target' is available while preprocessing.
When that occurs, the following errors appear multiple times when
building ARCH=powerpc powernv_defconfig:

  ld.lld: error: vmlinux.a(arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o):(.text+0x12d4): relocation R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI out of range: -4611686018409717520 is not in [-2147483648, 2147483647]; references '__start___soft_mask_table'

Diffing the .o.cmd files reveals that -DHAVE_AS_ATHIGH=1 is not present
anymore, because as-instr only uses KBUILD_AFLAGS, which will no longer
contain '--target'.

Mirror Kconfig's as-instr and add CLANG_FLAGS explicitly to the
invocation to ensure the target information is always present.

When CONFIG_MODULES is disabled for ARCH=um, 'make (bin)deb-pkg' fails
with an error like follows:

  cp: cannot create regular file 'debian/linux-image/usr/lib/uml/modules/6.4.0-rc2+/System.map': No such file or directory

Remove the CONFIG_MODULES check completely so ${pdir}/usr/lib/uml/modules
will always be created and modules.builtin.(modinfo) will be installed
under it for ARCH=um.

[ Upstream commit 4243afdb932677a03770753be8c54b3190a512e8 ]

Even for a non-modular kernel, the kernel builds modules.builtin and
modules.builtin.modinfo, with information about the built-in modules.
Tools such as initramfs-tools need these files to build a working
initramfs on some systems, such as those requiring firmware.

Now that `make modules_install` works even in non-modular kernels and
installs these files, unconditionally invoke it when building a Debian
package.

[ Upstream commit 25a21fbb934a0d989e1858f83c2ddf4cfb2ebe30 ]

With GCOV_PROFILE_ALL, Clang injects __llvm_gcov_* functions to each
object file, including the *.mod.o. As we filter out CC_FLAGS_CFI
for *.mod.o, the compiler won't generate type hashes for the
injected functions, and therefore indirectly calling them during
module loading trips indirect call checking.

Enabling CFI for *.mod.o isn't sufficient to fix this issue after
commit 0c3e806ec0f9 ("x86/cfi: Add boot time hash randomization"),
as *.mod.o aren't processed by objtool, which means any hashes
emitted there won't be randomized. Therefore, in addition to
disabling CFI for *.mod.o, also disable GCOV, as the object files
don't otherwise contain any executable code.

With GCOV_PROFILE_ALL, Clang injects __llvm_gcov_* functions to
each object file, and the functions are indirectly called during
boot. However, when code is injected to object files that are not
part of vmlinux.o, it's also not processed by objtool, which breaks
CFI hash randomization as the hashes in these files won't be
included in the .cfi_sites section and thus won't be randomized.

Similarly to commit 42633ed852de ("kbuild: Fix CFI hash
randomization with KASAN"), disable GCOV for .vmlinux.export.o and
init/version-timestamp.o to avoid emitting unnecessary functions to
object files that don't otherwise have executable code.
