[ Upstream commit 25ea739ea1d4d3de41acc4f4eb2d1a97eee0eb75 ]
binutils v2.37 drops unused section symbols, which prevents recordmcount
from capturing mcount locations in sections that have no non-weak
symbols. This results in a build failure with a message such as:
Cannot find symbol for section 12: .text.perf_callchain_kernel.
kernel/events/callchain.o: failed
The change to binutils was reverted for v2.38, so this behavior is
specific to binutils v2.37:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=c09c8b42021180eee9495bd50d8b35e683d3901b
Objtool is able to cope with such sections, so this issue is specific to
recordmcount.
Fail the build and print a warning if binutils v2.37 is detected and if
we are using recordmcount.

This functionality was tentatively added in the past
(commit 6533b7c16e ("powerpc: Initial stack protector
(-fstack-protector) support")) but had to be reverted
(commit f2574030b0 ("powerpc: Revert the initial stack
protector support") because of GCC implementing it differently
whether it had been built with libc support or not.
Now, GCC offers the possibility to manually set the
stack-protector mode (global or tls) regardless of libc support.
This time, the patch selects HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR only if
-mstack-protector-guard=tls is supported by GCC.
On PPC32, as register r2 points to current task_struct at
all time, the stack_canary located inside task_struct can be
used directly by using the following GCC options:
-mstack-protector-guard=tls
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r2
-mstack-protector-guard-offset=offsetof(struct task_struct, stack_canary))
The protector is disabled for prom_init and bootx_init as
it is too early to handle it properly.

commit af5cd05de5dd38cf25d14ea4d30ae9b791d2420b upstream.
Our logic for choosing defconfig doesn't work well in some situations.
For example if you're on a ppc64le machine but you specify a non-empty
CROSS_COMPILE, in order to use a non-default toolchain, then defconfig
will give you ppc64_defconfig (big endian):
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=~/toolchains/gcc-8/bin/powerpc-linux- defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'ppc64_defconfig'
This is because we assume that CROSS_COMPILE being set means we
can't be on a ppc machine and rather than checking we just default to
ppc64_defconfig.
We should just ignore CROSS_COMPILE, instead check the machine with
uname and if it's one of ppc, ppc64 or ppc64le then use that
defconfig. If it's none of those then we fall back to ppc64_defconfig.

When CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU=y (true for all our defconfigs) we pass
-mcpu=powerpc64 to the compiler, even when we're building a 32-bit
kernel.
This happens because we have an ifdef CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64/else block in
the Makefile that was written before 32-bit supported GENERIC_CPU. Prior
to that the else block only applied to 64-bit Book3E.
The GCC man page says -mcpu=powerpc64 "[specifies] a pure ... 64-bit big
endian PowerPC ... architecture machine [type], with an appropriate,
generic processor model assumed for scheduling purposes."
It's unclear how that interacts with -m32, which we are also passing,
although obviously -m32 is taking precedence in some sense, as the
32-bit kernel only contains 32-bit instructions.
This was noticed by inspection, not via any bug reports, but it does
affect code generation. Comparing before/after code generation, there
are some changes to instruction scheduling, and the after case (with
-mcpu=powerpc64 removed) the compiler seems more keen to use r8.
Fix it by making the else case only apply to Book3E 64, which excludes
32-bit.

When building pseries_defconfig, building vdso32 errors out:
error: unknown target ABI 'elfv1'
This happens because -m32 in clang changes the target to 32-bit,
which does not allow the ABI to be changed.
Commit 4dc831aa88 ("powerpc: Fix compiling a BE kernel with a
powerpc64le toolchain") added these flags to fix building big endian
kernels with a little endian GCC.
Clang doesn't need -mabi because the target triple controls the
default value. -mlittle-endian and -mbig-endian manipulate the triple
into either powerpc64-* or powerpc64le-*, which properly sets the
default ABI.
Adding a debug print out in the PPC64TargetInfo constructor after line
383 above shows this:
$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null -
Default ABI: elfv1
$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null -

Default ABI: elfv1
$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null -
Default ABI: elfv2
Don't specify -mabi when building with clang to avoid the build error
with -m32 and not change any code generation.
-mcall-aixdesc is not an implemented flag in clang so it can be safely
excluded as well, see commit 238abecde8 ("powerpc: Don't use gcc
specific options on clang").
pseries_defconfig successfully builds after this patch and
powernv_defconfig and ppc44x_defconfig don't regress.

When building for ppc32 with clang these flags are unsupported:
-ffixed-r2 and -mmultiple
llvm's lib/Target/PowerPC/PPCRegisterInfo.cpp marks r2 as reserved on
when building for SVR4ABI and !ppc64:
// The SVR4 ABI reserves r2 and r13
if (Subtarget.isSVR4ABI()) {
// We only reserve r2 if we need to use the TOC pointer. If we have no
// explicit uses of the TOC pointer (meaning we're a leaf function with
// no constant-pool loads, etc.) and we have no potential uses inside an
// inline asm block, then we can treat r2 has an ordinary callee-saved
// register.
const PPCFunctionInfo *FuncInfo = MF.getInfo<PPCFunctionInfo>();
if (!TM.isPPC64() || FuncInfo->usesTOCBasePtr() || MF.hasInlineAsm())
markSuperRegs(Reserved, PPC::R2); // System-reserved register
markSuperRegs(Reserved, PPC::R13); // Small Data Area pointer register
}
This means we can safely omit -ffixed-r2 when building for 32-bit
targets.
The -mmultiple/-mno-multiple flags are not supported by clang, so
platforms that might support multiple miss out on using multiple word
instructions.
We wrap these flags in cc-option so that when Clang gains support the
kernel will be able use these flags.

Ever since commit 15a3204d24 ("powerpc/64s: Set assembler machine type
to POWER4") we force -mpower4 to be passed to the assembler
irrespective of the CFLAGS used (for Book3s 64).
When building a powerpc64 kernel with clang, clang will not add -many
to the assembler flags, so any instructions that the compiler has
generated that are not available on power4 will cause an error:
/usr/bin/as -a64 -mppc64 -mlittle-endian -mpower8 \
-I ./arch/powerpc/include -I ./arch/powerpc/include/generated \
-I ./include -I ./arch/powerpc/include/uapi \

/tmp/do_mounts-51ce54.s:748: Error: unrecognized opcode: `isel'
GCC does include -many, so the GCC driven gas call will succeed:
as -v -I ./arch/powerpc/include -I ./arch/powerpc/include/generated -I
./include -I ./arch/powerpc/include/uapi
-I ./arch/powerpc/include/generated/uapi -I ./include/uapi
-I ./include/generated/uapi -I arch/powerpc -I arch/powerpc
-a64 -mpower8 -many -mlittle -maltivec -mpower4 -o init/do_mounts.o
Note that isel is power7 and above for IBM CPUs. GCC only generates it
for Power9 and above, but the above test was run against the clang
generated assembly.
Peter Bergner explains:
When using -many -mpower4, gas will first try and find a matching
power4 mnemonic and failing that, it will then allow any valid
mnemonic that gas knows about. GCC's use of -many predates me
though.
IIRC, Alan looked at trying to remove it, but I forget why he
didn't. Could be either a gcc or gas issue at the time. I'm not sure
whether issue still exists or not. He and I have modified how gas
works internally a fair amount since he tried removing gcc use of
-many.
I will also note that when using -many, gas will choose the first
mnemonic that matches in the mnemonic table and we have (mostly)
sorted the table so that server mnemonics show up earlier in the
table than other mnemonics, so they'll be seen/chosen first.
By explicitly setting -many we can build with Clang and GCC while
retaining the -mpower4 option.

To be the C compiler for the purpose of invoking it to build target

So when cross compiling a 32-bit kernel with a 64-bit toolchain, set
-mcpu=powerpc initially, which is the generic 32-bit powerpc machine
type and scheduling model. CPU and platform code can override this
with subsequent -mcpu flags if necessary.
This is not done for 32-bit toolchains otherwise it would override
their defaults, which are presumably set appropriately for the
environment (moreso than a 64-bit cross compiler).
This fixes a lot of build failures due to incompatible assembly when
compiling 32-bit kernel with the Debian powerpc64le 64-bit toolchain.

Rather than override the machine type in .S code (which can hide wrong
or ambiguous code generation for the target), set the type to power4
for all assembly.
This also means we need to be careful not to build power4-only code
when we're not building for Book3S, such as the "power7" versions of
copyuser/page/memcpy.

Newer gcc will support "-mno-readonly-in-sdata"[1], which makes sure that
the optimization on PPC32 for variables getting moved into the .sdata
section will not apply to const variables (which must be in .rodata).
This was originally noticed in mm/rodata_test.c when rodata_test_data
was not static:
c0695034 g O .data 00000004 rodata_test_data
After this patch with an updated compiler, this is correctly in .rodata.

powerpc64 gcc can generate code that offsets an address, to access
part of an object in memory. If the address is a -mcmodel=medium toc
pointer relative address then code like the following is possible.
addis r9,r2,var@toc@ha
ld r3,var@toc@l(r9)
ld r4,(var+8)@toc@l(r9)
This works fine so long as var is naturally aligned, *and* r2 is
sufficiently aligned. If not, there is a possibility that the offset
added to access var+8 wraps over a n*64k+32k boundary. Modules don't
have any guarantee that r2 is sufficiently aligned. Moreover, code
generated by older compilers generates a .toc section with 2**0
alignment, which can result in relocation failures at module load time
even without the wrap problem.
Thus, this patch links modules with an aligned .toc section (Makefile
and module.lds changes), and forces alignment for out of tree modules
or those without a .toc section (module_64.c changes).

In commit efe0160cfd ("powerpc/64: Linker on-demand sfpr functions
for modules"), we added an ld version check early in the powerpc
top-level Makefile.
Because the Makefile runs before the kernel config is setup, the
checks for CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN etc. all take the default case. So
we end up configuring ld for 32-bit big endian.
That would be OK, except that for historical (or perhaps no) reason,
we use 'override LD' to add the endian flags to the LD variable
itself, rather than the normal approach of adding them to LDFLAGS.
The end result is that when we check the ld version we run it as:
$(CROSS_COMPILE)ld -EB -m elf32ppc --version
This often works, unless you are using a 64-bit only and/or little
endian only, toolchain. In which case you see something like:
$ make defconfig
powerpc64le-linux-ld: unrecognised emulation mode: elf32ppc
Supported emulations: elf64lppc elf32lppc elf32lppclinux elf32lppcsim
/bin/sh: 1: [: -ge: unexpected operator
The proper fix is to stop using 'override LD', but that will require a
fair bit of testing. Instead we can fix it for now just by reordering
the Makefile to do the version check earlier.

Add --orphan-handling=warn to final link flags. This ensures we can
handle all sections explicitly. This would have caught subtle breakage
such as 7de3b27bac at build-time.
Also bring existing orphan sections into the fold:
- .text.hot and .text.unlikely are compiler generated sections.
- .sdata2, .dynsbss, .plt are used by PPC32
- We previously did not specify DWARF_DEBUG or STABS_DEBUG
- DWARF_DEBUG did not include all DWARF sections that can be emitted
- A number of sections are unused and can be discarded.

For final link, the powerpc64 linker generates fpr save/restore
functions on-demand, placing them in the .sfpr section. Starting with
binutils 2.25, these can be provided for non-final links with
--save-restore-funcs. Use that where possible for module links.
This saves about 200 bytes per module (~60kB) on powernv defconfig

Currently powerpc has to introduce a dependency on its default build
target zImage in order to run a relocation check pass over the linked
vmlinux. This is deficient because the check is not run if the plain
vmlinux target is built, or if one of the other boot targets is built.
Switch to using the kbuild post-link pass, added in commit fbe6e37dab
("kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile") in order to run this
check. In future powerpc will use this to do more complicated operations,
but initially using it for something simple is a good first step.

GCC can compile with either endian, but the default ABI version is set
based on the default endianness of the toolchain. Alan Modra says:
you need both -mbig and -mabi=elfv1 to make a powerpc64le gcc
generate powerpc64 code
The opposite is true for powerpc64 when generating -mlittle it
requires -mabi=elfv2 to generate v2 ABI, which we were already doing.
This change adds ABI annotations together with endianness for all cases,
LE and BE. This fixes the case of building a BE kernel with a toolchain
that is LE by default.

Back in 2005 when the ppc/ppc64 merge started, we used to build the
kernel code in arch/powerpc but use the boot code from arch/ppc or
arch/ppc64 depending on whether we were building for 32 or 64-bit.
Originally we called the boot Makefile passing ARCH=$(OLDARCH), where
OLDARCH was ppc or ppc64.
In commit 20f629549b ("powerpc: Make building the boot image work for
both 32-bit and 64-bit") (2005-10-11) we split the call for 32/64-bit
using an ifeq check, because the two Makefiles took different targets,
and explicitly passed ARCH=ppc64 for the 64-bit case and ARCH=ppc for
the 32-bit case.
Then in commit 94b212c29f ("powerpc: Move ppc64 boot wrapper code over
to arch/powerpc") (2005-11-16) we moved the boot code into arch/powerpc
and dropped the ppc case, but kept passing ARCH=ppc64 to
arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile.
Since then there have been several more boot targets added, all of which
have copied the ARCH=ppc64 setting, such that now we have four targets
using it.
Currently it seems that nothing actually uses the ARCH value, but that's
basically just luck, and in particular it prevents us from using the
generic cpp_lds_S rule. It's also clearly wrong, ARCH=ppc64 is dead,
buried and cremated.
Fix it by dropping the setting of ARCH completely, the correct value is
exported by the top level Makefile.

When we're not compiling for a specific CPU, ie. none of the
CONFIG_POWERx_CPU options are set, and CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU *is* set, we
currently don't pass any -mcpu option to the compiler. This means the
compiler builds for a "generic" Power CPU.
But back in 2014 we dropped support for pre power4 CPUs in commit
468a33028e ("powerpc: Drop support for pre-POWER4 cpus").
Given that, there's no point in building the kernel to run on pre power4
cpus. So update the flags we pass to the compiler when
CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is set, to specify -mcpu=power4.

Commit 2578bfae84 ("[POWERPC] Create and use CONFIG_WORD_SIZE") added
CONFIG_WORD_SIZE, and suggests that other arches were going to do
likewise.
But that never happened, powerpc is the only architecture which uses it.
So switch to using a simple make variable, BITS, like x86, sh, sparc and
tile. It is also easier to spell and simpler, avoiding any confusion
about whether it's defined due to ordering of make vs kconfig.
