Commit Message

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

While r5000 is not a valid MIPS CPU for LLVM (as you can see from the
values below), the note here seems to imply that there is a place where
KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS is used without KBUILD_CPPFLAGS because we are
dropping '--target'. V=1 does not make it obvious where that is
happening though, as I see the error right after syncing the
configuration (is it coming from Kconfig internally?). I can see the
same issue with 32r2_defconfig, which uses an LLVM supported CPU value.

Hi Masahiro,

Nit: s/CLANG_CFLAGS/CLANG_FLAGS/ in the title and a small typo below.

We will need to sort out the report from the kbuild test robot before we
can do this. Otherwise, I think this should be fine, although I am
curious if -Wunused-command-line-argument might fire more because there
may be flags are unused while preprocessing. I will run this through my
test matrix once the other report has been addressed to make sure there
is nothing else obviously wrong with this change.

Cheers,
Nathan

I am doubling back to this change, as the lack of '--target' in
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS is now an active bug with clang-17 due to a new change
that rejects '-mbig-endian' and '-mlittle-endian' when not supported by
the target, which breaks the arm64 vDSO build when preprocessing its
linker script:

  # Turn on CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN in menuconfig
  $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm64 LLVM=1 O=build mrproper virtconfig menuconfig arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/
  ...
  clang: error: unsupported option '-mbig-endian' for target 'x86_64-pc-linux-gnu'
  make[3]: *** [.../scripts/Makefile.build:387: arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/vdso.lds] Error 1
  ...

  https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1859

This change resolves that issue. I was able to figure out why those new
warnings appeared for ARCH=mips, it is the shell invocation for
CHECKFLAGS. The following diff resolves it for me:

diff --git a/arch/mips/Makefile b/arch/mips/Makefile

--- a/arch/mips/Makefile

 endif

I will run this change plus that diff through my build matrix to see if
any other issues pop up. If not, I will respond with some tags and
perhaps this could be taken as a fix for 6.4 so that it could
potentially be backported?

Cheers,
Nathan

I found two more issues lurking in PowerPC. I have attached suggested
patches for all the issues I have uncovered to this email, please feel
free to use them or do something different if you feel there is a better
fix. With those issues resolved in one way or another, consider the
original change:

If it would work better for you, I am more than happy to take over this
series as well.

Ah. Now we have a good reason to apply this patch.

Agree. This is the right fix because this $(shell ...) retrieves
the predefined macros of the compiler.
So, KBUILD_CPPFLAGS is correct.

Thanks. All the three patches look good to me.

I will apply them, then mine on top.




A nit:

The first patch for mips will introduce the warning
as $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) does not contain $(CLANG_FLAGS)
at this point.
Then, it will be fixed again when my patch is applied.

The two must be squashed together to avoid the regression,
but I think it is OK as-is.




The second patch for powerpc reminded me of
converting $(CC) to $(LD) for linking vDSO.
I do not remember why powerpc vDSO still uses $(CC).

Thanks, sounds like a good plan!

Hmmm, what warning would be introduced? KBUILD_CPPFLAGS is being added
to the CHECKFLAGS invocation, rather than replacing KBUILD_CFLAGS, so
'--target' should always be present (first via KBUILD_CFLAGS then via
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS), right?

Nick tried to make the conversion some time ago but ran into issues with
GNU ld crashing:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200901222523.1941988-1-ndesaulniers@google.com/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/b2066ccd-2b81-6032-08e3-41105b400f75@csgroup.eu/

It might be easier to do this now that the PowerPC vDSO has been
combined into one directory, but we have not had time to sit down and
actually work on it.

Cheers,
Nathan

Sorry, I wrongly read your code.

You are right, you added $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS)
in addition to $(KBUILD_CFLAGS).




Maybe, we can drop $(KBUILD_CFLAGS) (as a follow-up)
because this $(shell ) invocation is only interested
in preprocessor macros.

Hi Masahiro, one nit:) If the patch still has time to adjust the
commit message, perhaps consider replacing

-target aarch64-linux-gnu with --target=aarch64-linux-gnu

as the former is a deprecated driver option since Clang 3.x (long time ago).

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

You may drop "Assuming you use an x86 build machine" and add
--target=x86_64-linux-gnu to the `clang -dM -E -x c /dev/null` command
:)

Thanks for the suggestion, but I do not want to change the commit ID
unless there is something terribly wrong.

Nathan recorded the commit ID in the CBL bug tracker.
