Commit 23243c1ace ("arch: use cross_compiling to check whether it is
a cross build or not") broke 64-bit parisc builds on 32-bit parisc
systems.
Helge mentioned:
- 64-bit parisc userspace is not supported yet [1]
- hppa gcc does not support "-m64" flag [2]
That means, parisc developers working on a 32-bit parisc machine need
to use hppa64-linux-gnu-gcc (cross compiler) for building the 64-bit
parisc kernel.
After the offending commit, gcc is used in such a case because
both $(SRCARCH) and $(SUBARCH) are 'parisc', hence cross_compiling is
unset.
A correct way is to introduce ARCH=parisc64 because building the 64-bit
parisc kernel on a 32-bit parisc system is not exactly a native build,
but rather a semi-cross build.

Expose an 'override_only' helper macro (i.e.
PCI_DRIVER_OVERRIDE_DEVICE_VFIO) for VFIO PCI sub system and add the
required code to prefix its matching entries with "vfio_" in
modules.alias file.
It allows VFIO device drivers to include match entries in the
modules.alias file produced by kbuild that are not used for normal
driver autoprobing and module autoloading. Drivers using these match
entries can be connected to the PCI device manually, by userspace, using
the existing driver_override sysfs.
For example the resulting modules.alias may have:
alias pci:v000015B3d00001021sv*sd*bc*sc*i* mlx5_core
alias vfio_pci:v000015B3d00001021sv*sd*bc*sc*i* mlx5_vfio_pci
alias vfio_pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc*sc*i* vfio_pci
In this example mlx5_core and mlx5_vfio_pci match to the same PCI
device. The kernel will autoload and autobind to mlx5_core but the
kernel and udev mechanisms will ignore mlx5_vfio_pci.
When userspace wants to change a device to the VFIO subsystem it can
implement a generic algorithm:
1) Identify the sysfs path to the device:
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0
2) Get the modalias string from the kernel:
$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/modalias
pci:v000015B3d00001021sv000015B3sd00000001bc02sc00i00
3) Prefix it with vfio_:
vfio_pci:v000015B3d00001021sv000015B3sd00000001bc02sc00i00
4) Search modules.alias for the above string and select the entry that
has the fewest *'s:
alias vfio_pci:v000015B3d00001021sv*sd*bc*sc*i* mlx5_vfio_pci
5) modprobe the matched module name:
$ modprobe mlx5_vfio_pci
6) cat the matched module name to driver_override:
echo mlx5_vfio_pci > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/driver_override
7) unbind device from original module
echo 0000:01:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/driver/unbind
8) probe PCI drivers (or explicitly bind to mlx5_vfio_pci)
echo 0000:01:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe
The algorithm is independent of bus type. In future the other buses with
VFIO device drivers, like platform and ACPI, can use this algorithm as
well.
This patch is the infrastructure to provide the information in the
modules.alias to userspace. Convert the only VFIO pci_driver which results
in one new line in the modules.alias:
alias vfio_pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc*sc*i* vfio_pci
Later series introduce additional HW specific VFIO PCI drivers, such as
mlx5_vfio_pci.

Using asm goto in __WARN_FLAGS() and WARN_ON() allows more

For that add an entry to the exception table so that
program_check_exception() knowns where to resume execution
after a WARNING.
Here are two exemples. The first one is done on PPC32 (which
benefits from the previous patch), the second is on PPC64.
unsigned long test(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
int ret;
WARN_ON(regs->msr & MSR_PR);
return regs->gpr[3];
}
unsigned long test9w(unsigned long a, unsigned long b)
{
if (WARN_ON(!b))
return 0;
return a / b;
}

In the first exemple, we see GCC doesn't need to duplicate what
happens after the trap.
In the second exemple, we see that GCC doesn't need to emit a test
and a branch in the likely path in addition to the trap.
We've got some WARN_ON() in .softirqentry.text section so it needs
to be added in the OTHER_TEXT_SECTIONS in modpost.c

Since commit 2c12c8103d ("scripts/kernel-doc: optionally treat
warnings as errors"), the kernel-doc script will treat warnings as
errors when one of the following conditions is true:
- The KDOC_WERROR environment variable is non-zero
- The KCFLAGS environment variable contains -Werror
- The -Werror parameter is passed to kernel-doc
Checking KCFLAGS for -Werror allows piggy-backing on the C compiler
error handling. However, unlike the C compiler, kernel-doc has no
provision for -Wno-error. This makes compiling the kernel with -Werror
(to catch regressions) and W=1 (to enable more checks) always fail,
without the same possibility as offered by the C compiler to treating
some selected warnings as warnings despite the global -Werror setting.
To fix this, evaluate KDOC_WERROR after KCFLAGS, which allows disabling
the warnings-as-errors behaviour of kernel-doc selectively by setting
KDOC_WERROR=0.

LLVM_IAS=1 controls enabling clang's integrated assembler via
-integrated-as. This was an explicit opt in until we could enable
assembler support in Clang for more architecures. Now we have support
and CI coverage of LLVM_IAS=1 for all architecures except a few more
bugs affecting s390 and powerpc.
This commit flips the default from opt in via LLVM_IAS=1 to opt out via
LLVM_IAS=0. CI systems or developers that were previously doing builds
with CC=clang or LLVM=1 without explicitly setting LLVM_IAS must now
explicitly opt out via LLVM_IAS=0, otherwise they will be implicitly
opted-in.
This finally shortens the command line invocation when cross compiling
with LLVM to simply:
$ make ARCH=arm64 LLVM=1

We get constant feedback that the command line invocation of make is too
long when compiling with LLVM. CROSS_COMPILE is helpful when a toolchain
has a prefix of the target triple, or is an absolute path outside of
$PATH.
Since a Clang binary is generally multi-targeted, we can infer a given
target from SRCARCH/ARCH. If CROSS_COMPILE is not set, simply set
--target= for CLANG_FLAGS, KBUILD_CFLAGS, and KBUILD_AFLAGS based on
$SRCARCH.
Previously, we'd cross compile via:
$ ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
Now:
$ ARCH=arm64 make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
For native builds (not involving cross compilation) we now explicitly
specify a target triple rather than rely on the implicit host triple.

When merging configuration fragments, it might be of interest to
identify mismatches (redefinitions) programmatically. Hence add the
option -s (strict mode) to instruct merge_config.sh to bail out in
case any redefinition has been detected.
With strict mode, warnings are emitted as before, but the script
terminates with rc=1. If -y is set to define "builtin having
precedence over modules", fragments are still allowed to set =m (while
the base config has =y). Strict mode will tolerate that as demotions
from =y to =m are ignored when setting -y.

When building ARCH=riscv allmodconfig with llvm-objcopy, the objcopy
version warning from this script appears:
WARNING: could not find objcopy version or version is less than 2.17.
Local function references are disabled.
The check_objcopy() function in scripts/recordmcount.pl is set up to

the warning.
Commit 799c434154 ("kbuild: thin archives make default for all archs")

time so just remove check_objcopy() and $can_use_local instead, assuming
--globalize-symbol is always available.
llvm-objcopy has supported --globalize-symbol since LLVM 7.0.0 in 2018
and the minimum version for building the kernel with LLVM is 10.0.1 so
there is no issue introduced:

The constructor code for modules must be aware of init code inside
different sections.
Newer GCC compilers write constructors in more than one section,
e.g. ".ctors.65435". These must be combined into a single
".ctors" section. In the module loader, only the ".ctors" section
is searched and the constructors therein are initialized, when
CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS=y is set. Other constructors are ignored.
This change combines all ".ctors.*" and the ".ctors" section, if any,
in <module>.ko into a single ."ctors" section.
For code coverage in GCC, this is necessary to show the
code coverage for modules, since code coverage uses such
constructors when initializing a module in newer version of GCC.
