In commit 8b202ee218 ("s390: disable -Warray-bounds") the s390 people
disabled the '-Warray-bounds' warning for gcc-12, because the new logic
in gcc would cause warnings for their use of the S390_lowcore macro,
which accesses absolute pointers.
It turns out gcc-12 has many other issues in this area, so this takes
that s390 warning disable logic, and turns it into a kernel build config
entry instead.
Part of the intent is that we can make this all much more targeted, and
use this conflig flag to disable it in only particular configurations
that cause problems, with the s390 case as an example:
select GCC12_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS
and we could do that for other configuration cases that cause issues.
Or we could possibly use the CONFIG_CC_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS thing in a more
targeted way, and disable the warning only for particular uses: again
the s390 case as an example:
KBUILD_CFLAGS_DECOMPRESSOR += $(if $(CONFIG_CC_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS),-Wno-array-bounds)
but this ends up just doing it globally in the top-level Makefile, since
the current issues are spread fairly widely all over:
KBUILD_CFLAGS-$(CONFIG_CC_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS) += -Wno-array-bounds
We'll try to limit this later, since the gcc-12 problems are rare enough
that *much* of the kernel can be built with it without disabling this
warning.

While the concept of checking for dangling pointers to local variables
at function exit is really interesting, the gcc-12 implementation is not
compatible with reality, and results in false positives.
For example, gcc sees us putting things on a local list head allocated
on the stack, which involves exactly those kinds of pointers to the
local stack entry:
In function ‘__list_add’,
inlined from ‘list_add_tail’ at include/linux/list.h:102:2,
inlined from ‘rebuild_snap_realms’ at fs/ceph/snap.c:434:2:
include/linux/list.h:74:19: warning: storing the address of local variable ‘realm_queue’ in ‘*&realm_27(D)->rebuild_item.prev’ [-Wdangling-pointer=]
74 | new->prev = prev;
| ~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~
But then gcc - understandably - doesn't really understand the big
picture how the doubly linked list works, so doesn't see how we then end
up emptying said list head in a loop and the pointer we added has been
removed.
Gcc also complains about us (intentionally) using this as a way to store
a kind of fake stack trace, eg
drivers/acpi/acpica/utdebug.c:40:38: warning: storing the address of local variable ‘current_sp’ in ‘acpi_gbl_entry_stack_pointer’ [-Wdangling-pointer=]
40 | acpi_gbl_entry_stack_pointer = ¤t_sp;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
which is entirely reasonable from a compiler standpoint, and we may want
to change those kinds of patterns, but not not.
So this is one of those "it would be lovely if the compiler were to
complain about us leaving dangling pointers to the stack", but not this
way.

Change the "make clean" rule to remove all the .tmp_* files.
.tmp_objdiff is the only exception, which should be removed by
"make mrproper".
Rename the record directory of objdiff, .tmp_objdiff to .objdiff to
avoid the removal by "make clean".

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Comprehensive interface overhaul:
=================================
Objtool's interface has some issues:
- Several features are done unconditionally, without any way to
turn them off. Some of them might be surprising. This makes
objtool tricky to use, and prevents porting individual features
to other arches.
- The config dependencies are too coarse-grained. Objtool
enablement is tied to CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, but it has several
other features independent of that.
- The objtool subcmds ("check" and "orc") are clumsy: "check" is
really a subset of "orc", so it has all the same options.
The subcmd model has never really worked for objtool, as it only
has a single purpose: "do some combination of things on an object
file".
- The '--lto' and '--vmlinux' options are nonsensical and have
surprising behavior.
Overhaul the interface:
- get rid of subcmds
- make all features individually selectable
- remove and/or clarify confusing/obsolete options
- update the documentation
- fix some bugs found along the way
- Fix x32 regression
- Fix Kbuild cleanup bugs
- Add scripts/objdump-func helper script to disassemble a single
function from an object file.
- Rewrite scripts/faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on
'readelf', moving it away from 'nm', which doesn't handle multiple
sections well, which can result in decoding failure.
- Rewrite & fix symbol handling - which had a number of bugs wrt.
object files that don't have global symbols - which is rare but
possible. Also fix a bunch of symbol handling bugs found along the
way.

Many architectures have similar install.sh scripts.
The first half is really generic; it verifies that the kernel image
and System.map exist, then executes ~/bin/${INSTALLKERNEL} or
/sbin/${INSTALLKERNEL} if available.
The second half is kind of arch-specific; it copies the kernel image
and System.map to the destination, but the code is slightly different.
Factor out the generic part into scripts/install.sh.

When developing new code/feature, CONFIG_WERROR is most
often turned off, especially for people using make W=12 to
get more warnings.
In such case, turning on -Werror temporarily would require
switching on CONFIG_WERROR in the configuration, building,
then switching off CONFIG_WERROR.
For this use case, this patch introduces a new 'e' modifier
to W= as a short hand for KCFLAGS+=-Werror" so that -Werror
got added to the kernel (built-in) and modules' CFLAGS.

The dependency
$(obj)/%.mod: $(obj)/%$(mod-prelink-ext).o
... exists because *.mod files previously contained undefined symbols,
which are computed from *.o files when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y.
Now that the undefined symbols are put into separate *.usyms files,
there is no reason to make *.mod depend on *.o files.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
The *.mod files have two lines; the first line lists the member objects
of the module, and the second line, if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y, lists
the undefined symbols.
Currently, we generate *.mod after constructing composite modules,
otherwise, we cannot compute the second line. No prerequisite is
required to print the first line.
They are orthogonal. Splitting them into separate commands will ease
further cleanups.
This commit splits the list of undefined symbols out to *.usyms files.
Previously, the list of undefined symbols ended up with a very long
line, but now it has one symbol per line.
Use sed like we did before commit 7d32358be8 ("kbuild: avoid split
lines in .mod files").
