b51277eb97 objtool: Ditch subcommands
Objtool has a fairly singular focus.  It runs on object files and does
validations and transformations which can be combined in various ways.
The subcommand model has never been a good fit, making it awkward to
combine and remove options.

Remove the "check" and "orc" subcommands in favor of a more traditional
cmdline option model.  This makes it much more flexible to use, and
easier to port individual features to other arches.

5c8166419a kbuild: replace $(if A,A,B) with $(or A,B)
$(or ...) is available since GNU Make 3.81, and useful to shorten the
code in some places.

Covert as follows:

  $(if A,A,B)  -->  $(or A,B)

This patch also converts:

  $(if A, A, B) --> $(or A, B)

Strictly speaking, the latter is not an equivalent conversion because
GNU Make keeps spaces after commas; if A is not empty, $(if A, A, B)
expands to " A", while $(or A, B) expands to "A".

Anyway, preceding spaces are not significant in the code hunks I touched.

7786032e52 objtool: Rework header include paths
Currently objtool headers are being included either by their base name
or included via ../ from a parent directory. In case of a base name usage:

 #include "warn.h"
 #include "arch_elf.h"

it does not make it apparent from which directory the file comes from.
To make it slightly better, and actually to avoid name clashes some arch
specific files have "arch_" suffix. And files from an arch folder have
to revert to including via ../ e.g:
 #include "../../elf.h"

With additional architectures support and the code base growth there is
a need for clearer headers naming scheme for multiple reasons:
1. to make it instantly obvious where these files come from (objtool
   itself / objtool arch|generic folders / some other external files),
2. to avoid name clashes of objtool arch specific headers, potential
   obtool arch generic headers and the system header files (there is
   /usr/include/elf.h already),
3. to avoid ../ includes and improve code readability.
4. to give a warm fuzzy feeling to developers who are mostly kernel
   developers and are accustomed to linux kernel headers arranging
   scheme.

Doesn't this make it instantly obvious where are these files come from?

 #include <objtool/warn.h>
 #include <arch/elf.h>

And doesn't it look nicer to avoid ugly ../ includes? Which also
guarantees this is elf.h from the objtool and not /usr/include/elf.h.

 #include <objtool/elf.h>

This patch defines and implements new objtool headers arranging
scheme. Which is:
- all generic headers go to include/objtool (similar to include/linux)
- all arch headers go to arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/arch (to get arch
  prefix). This is similar to linux arch specific "asm/*" headers but we
  are not abusing "asm" name and calling it what it is. This also helps
  to prevent name clashes (arch is not used in system headers or kernel
  exports).

To bring objtool to this state the following things are done:
1. current top level tools/objtool/ headers are moved into
   include/objtool/ subdirectory,
2. arch specific headers, currently only arch/x86/include/ are moved into
   arch/x86/include/arch/ and were stripped of "arch_" suffix,
3. new -I$(srctree)/tools/objtool/include include path to make
   includes like <objtool/warn.h> possible,
4. rewriting file includes,
5. make git not to ignore include/objtool/ subdirectory.

2486baae2c objtool: Allow nested externs to enable BUILD_BUG()
Currently BUILD_BUG() macro is expanded to smth like the following:
   do {
           extern void __compiletime_assert_0(void)
                   __attribute__((error("BUILD_BUG failed")));
           if (!(!(1)))
                   __compiletime_assert_0();
   } while (0);

If used in a function body this obviously would produce build errors
with -Wnested-externs and -Werror.

0decf1f8de objtool: Enable compilation of objtool for all architectures
Objtool currently only compiles for x86 architectures. This is
fine as it presently does not support tooling for other
architectures. However, we would like to be able to convert other
kernel tools to run as objtool sub commands because they too
process ELF object files. This will allow us to convert tools
such as recordmcount to use objtool's ELF code.

Since much of recordmcount's ELF code is copy-paste code to/from
a variety of other kernel tools (look at modpost for example) this
means that if we can convert recordmcount we can convert more.

We define weak definitions for subcommand entry functions and other weak
definitions for shared functions critical to building existing
subcommands. These return 127 when the command is missing which signify
tools that do not exist on all architectures.  In this case the "check"
and "orc" tools do not exist on all architectures so we only add them
for x86. Future changes adding support for "check", to arm64 for
example, can then modify the SUBCMD_CHECK variable when building for
arm64.

Objtool is not currently wired in to KConfig to be built for other
architectures because it's not needed for those architectures and
there are no commands it supports other than those for x86. As more
command support is enabled on various architectures the necessary
KConfig changes can be made (e.g. adding "STACK_VALIDATION") to
trigger building objtool.

aa5847270a objtool: Always do header sync check
Currently, the check of tools files against kernel equivalent is only
done after every object file has been built. This means one might fix
build issues against outdated headers without seeing a warning about
this.

Check headers before any object is built. Also, make it part of a
FORCE'd recipe so every attempt to build objtool will report the
outdated headers (if any).

a0d1c951ef kbuild: support LLVM=1 to switch the default tools to Clang/LLVM
As Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst implies, building the kernel with a
full set of LLVM tools gets very verbose and unwieldy.

Provide a single switch LLVM=1 to use Clang and LLVM tools instead
of GCC and Binutils. You can pass it from the command line or as an
environment variable.

Please note LLVM=1 does not turn on the integrated assembler. You need
to pass LLVM_IAS=1 to use it. When the upstream kernel is ready for the
integrated assembler, I think we can make it default.

We discussed what we need, and we agreed to go with a simple boolean
flag that switches both target and host tools:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/28/494
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/3/43

Some items discussed, but not adopted:

- LLVM_DIR

  When multiple versions of LLVM are installed, I just thought supporting
  LLVM_DIR=/path/to/my/llvm/bin/ might be useful.

  CC      = $(LLVM_DIR)clang
  LD      = $(LLVM_DIR)ld.lld
    ...

  However, we can handle this by modifying PATH. So, we decided to not do
  this.

- LLVM_SUFFIX

  Some distributions (e.g. Debian) package specific versions of LLVM with
  naming conventions that use the version as a suffix.

  CC      = clang$(LLVM_SUFFIX)
  LD      = ld.lld(LLVM_SUFFIX)
    ...

  will allow a user to pass LLVM_SUFFIX=-11 to use clang-11 etc.,
  but the suffixed versions in /usr/bin/ are symlinks to binaries in
  /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin/, so this can also be handled by PATH.

d046b72548 objtool: Move x86 insn decoder to a common location
The kernel tree has three identical copies of the x86 instruction
decoder.  Two of them are in the tools subdir.

The tools subdir is supposed to be completely standalone and separate
from the kernel.  So having at least one copy of the kernel decoder in
the tools subdir is unavoidable.  However, we don't need *two* of them.

Move objtool's copy of the decoder to a shared location, so that perf
will also be able to use it.

I tried building using a freshly built Make (4.2.1-69-g8a731d1), but
already the objtool build broke with

orc_dump.c: In function ‘orc_dump’:
orc_dump.c:106:2: error: ‘elf_getshnum’ is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
  if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) {

Turns out that with that new Make, the backslash was not removed, so cpp
didn't see a #include directive, grep found nothing, and
-DLIBELF_USE_DEPRECATED was wrongly put in CFLAGS.

Now, that new Make behaviour is documented in their NEWS file:

  * WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
    Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
    no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
    thus a call such as:
      foo := $(shell echo '#')
    is legal.  Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
      foo := $(shell echo '\#')
    Now this latter will resolve to "\#".  If you want to write makefiles
    portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
      C := \#
      foo := $(shell echo '$C')
    This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
    To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.

This also fixes up the two make-cmd instances to replace # with $(pound)
rather than with \#. There might very well be other places that need
similar fixup in preparation for whatever future Make release contains
the above change, but at least this builds an x86_64 defconfig with the
new make.
