kbuild: Consolidate C dialect options
Introduce CC_FLAGS_DIALECT to make it easier to update the various places in the tree that rely on the GNU C standard and Microsoft extensions flags atomically. All remaining uses of '-std=gnu11' and '-fms-extensions' are in the tools directory (which has its own build system) and other standalone Makefiles. This will allow the kernel to use a narrower option to enable the Microsoft anonymous tagged structure extension in a simpler manner. Place the CC_FLAGS_DIALECT block after the configuration include (so that a future change can move the selection of the flag to Kconfig) but before the arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile include (so that CC_FLAGS_DIALECT is available for use in those Makefiles).

x86/entry/vdso: Move vdso2c to arch/x86/tools
It is generally better to build tools in arch/x86/tools to keep host cflags proliferation down, and to reduce makefile sequencing issues. Move the vdso build tool vdso2c into arch/x86/tools in preparation for refactoring the vdso makefiles. Signed-off-by: H.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Cheaper MAY_EXEC handling for path lookup. This elides MAY_WRITE
permission checks during path lookup and adds the
IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag so filesystems like btrfs can avoid
expensive permission work.
- Hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery.
- Add German Maglione as virtiofs co-maintainer.
Cleanups:
- Tidy up and inline step_into() and walk_component() for improved
code generation.
- Re-enable IOCB_NOWAIT writes to files. This refactors file
timestamp update logic, fixing a layering bypass in btrfs when
updating timestamps on device files and improving FMODE_NOCMTIME
handling in VFS now that nfsd started using it.
- Path lookup optimizations extracting slowpaths into dedicated
routines and adding branch prediction hints for mntput_no_expire(),
fd_install(), lookup_slow(), and various other hot paths.
- Enable clang's -fms-extensions flag, requiring a JFS rename to
avoid conflicts.
- Remove spurious exports in fs/file_attr.c.
- Stop duplicating union pipe_index declaration. This depends on the
shared kbuild branch that brings in -fms-extensions support which
is merged into this branch.
- Use MD5 library instead of crypto_shash in ecryptfs.
- Use largest_zero_folio() in iomap_dio_zero().
- Replace simple_strtol/strtoul with kstrtoint/kstrtouint in init and
initrd code.
- Various typo fixes.
Fixes:
- Fix emergency sync for btrfs. Btrfs requires an explicit sync_fs()
call with wait == 1 to commit super blocks. The emergency sync path
never passed this, leaving btrfs data uncommitted during emergency
sync.
- Use local kmap in watch_queue's post_one_notification().
- Add hint prints in sb_set_blocksize() for LBS dependency on THP"

rust: kbuild: support -Cjump-tables=n for Rust 1.93.0
Rust 1.93.0 (expected 2026-01-22) is stabilizing `-Zno-jump-tables`
[1][2] as `-Cjump-tables=n` [3].
Without this change, one would eventually see:
RUSTC L rust/core.o
error: unknown unstable option: `no-jump-tables`
Thus support the upcoming version.

x86/build: Disable SSE4a
Leyvi Rose reported that his X86_NATIVE_CPU=y build is failing because our
instruction decoder doesn't support SSE4a and the AMDGPU code seems to be
generating those with his compiler of choice (CLANG+LTO).
Now, our normal build flags disable SSE MMX SSE2 3DNOW AVX, but then
CC_FLAGS_FPU re-enable SSE SSE2.
Since nothing mentions SSE3 or SSE4, I'm assuming that -msse (or its negative)
control all SSE variants -- but why then explicitly enumerate SSE2 ?
Anyway, until the instruction decoder gets fixed, explicitly disallow SSE4a
(an AMD specific SSE4 extension).

The advantage of this scheme is that the guest determines which interrupts and when to accept them vs leaving that to the benevolence (or not) of the hypervisor - Strictly separate the startup code from the rest of the kernel where former is executed from the initial 1:1 mapping of memory. The problem was that the toolchain-generated version of the code was being executed from a different mapping of memory than what was "assumed" during code generation, needing an ever-growing pile of fixups for absolute memory references which are invalid in the early, 1:1 memory mapping during boot.

x86/kbuild: Incorporate boot/startup/ via Kbuild makefile
Using core-y is not the correct way to get kbuild to descend into
arch/x86/boot/startup. For instance, building an individual object does
not work as expected when the pattern rule is local to the Makefile
$ make arch/x86/boot/startup/map_kernel.pi.o
GEN Makefile
CALL /home/ardb/linux/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
DESCEND objtool
INSTALL libsubcmd_headers
make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/x86/boot/startup/map_kernel.pi.o'. Stop.
make[2]: *** [/home/ardb/linux/scripts/Makefile.build:461: arch/x86] Error 2
make[1]: *** [/home/ardb/linux/Makefile:2011: .] Error 2
make: *** [/home/ardb/linux/Makefile:248: __sub-make] Error 2
So use obj-y from arch.x86/Kbuild instead, which makes things work as
expected.

x86/build: Remove cc-option from stack alignment flags
'-mpreferred-stack-boundary' (the GCC option) and '-mstack-alignment' (the clang option) have been supported in their respective compilers for some time, so it is unnecessary to check for support for them via cc-option. '-mpreferred-stack-boundary=3' had a restriction on '-mno-sse' until GCC 7.1 but that is irrelevant for most of the kernel, which includes '-mno-sse'. Move to simple Kconfig checks to avoid querying the compiler for the flags that it supports.

x86/boot: Move the 5-level paging trampoline into /startup
The 5-level paging trampoline is used by both the EFI stub and the traditional decompressor. Move it out of the decompressor sources into the newly minted arch/x86/boot/startup/ sub-directory which will hold startup code that may be shared between the decompressor, the EFI stub and the kernel proper, and needs to tolerate being called during early boot, before the kernel virtual mapping has been created. This will allow the 5-level paging trampoline to be used by EFI boot images such as zboot that omit the traditional decompressor entirely.

x86: don't re-generate cpufeaturemasks.h so eagerly
It turns out the code to generate the x86 cpufeaturemasks.h header was
way too aggressive, and would re-generate it whenever the timestamp on
the kernel config file changed.
Now, the regular 'make *config' tools are fairly careful to not rewrite
the kernel config file unless the contents change, but other usecases
aren't that careful.
Michael Kelley reports that 'make-kpkg' ends up doing "make syncconfig"
multiple times in prepping to build, and will modify the config file in
the process (and then modify it back, but by then the timestamps have
changed).
Jakub Kicinski reports that the netdev CI does something similar in how
it generates the config file in multiple steps.
In both cases, the config file timestamp updates then cause the
cpufeaturemasks.h file to be regenerated, and that in turn then causes
lots of unnecessary rebuilds due to all the normal dependencies.
Fix it by using our 'filechk' infrastructure in the Makefile to generate
the header file. That will only write a new version of the file if the
contents of the file have actually changed.

The idea comes from Linus' reply to Arnd's initial proposal: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wji1sV93yKbc==Z7OSSHBiDE=LAdG_d5Y-zPBrnSs0k2A@mail.gmail.com/ Here are some numbers comparing 'generic' to 'native' on a Skylake dual-core laptop (generic --> native): - vmlinux and compressed modules size: 125'907'744 bytes --> 125'595'280 bytes (-0.248 %) 18'810 kilobytes --> 18'770 kilobytes (-0.213 %) - phoronix, average of 3 runs: ffmpeg: 130.99 --> 131.15 (+0.122 %) nginx: 10'650 --> 10'725 (+0.704 %) hackbench (lower is better): 102.27 --> 99.50 (-2.709 %) - xz compression of firefox tarball (lower is better): 319.57 seconds --> 317.34 seconds (-0.698 %) - stress-ng, bogoops, average of 3 15-second runs: fork: 111'744 --> 115'509 (+3.397 %) bsearch: 7'211 --> 7'436 (+3.120 %) memfd: 3'591 --> 3'604 (+0.362 %) mmapfork: 630 --> 629 (-0.159 %) schedmix: 42'715 --> 43'251 (+1.255 %) epoll: 2'443'767 --> 2'454'413 (+0.436 %) vm: 1'442'256 --> 1'486'615 (+3.076 %) - schbench (two message threads), 30-second runs: 304 rps --> 305 rps (+0.329 %) There is little difference both in terms of size and of performance, however the native build comes out on top ever so slightly.

x86/cpufeatures: Generate the <asm/cpufeaturemasks.h> header based on build config
Introduce an AWK script to auto-generate the <asm/cpufeaturemasks.h> header with required and disabled feature masks based on <asm/cpufeatures.h> and the current build config. Thus for any CPU feature with a build config, e.g., X86_FRED, simply add: config X86_DISABLED_FEATURE_FRED def_bool y depends on !X86_FRED to arch/x86/Kconfig.cpufeatures, instead of adding a conditional CPU feature disable flag, e.g., DISABLE_FRED. Lastly, the generated required and disabled feature masks will be added to their corresponding feature masks for this particular compile-time configuration.

kbuild: Introduce Kconfig symbol for linking vmlinux with relocations
Some architectures build vmlinux with static relocations preserved, but strip them again from the final vmlinux image. Arch specific tools consume these static relocations in order to construct relocation tables for KASLR. The fact that vmlinux is created, consumed and subsequently updated goes against the typical, declarative paradigm used by Make, which is based on rules and dependencies. So as a first step towards cleaning this up, introduce a Kconfig symbol to declare that the arch wants to consume the static relocations emitted into vmlinux. This will be wired up further in subsequent patches. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> |

x86/cpu: Drop configuration options for early 64-bit CPUs
The x86 CPU selection menu is confusing for a number of reasons: When configuring 32-bit kernels, it shows a small number of early 64-bit microarchitectures (K8, Core 2) but not the regular generic 64-bit target that is the normal default. There is no longer a reason to run 32-bit kernels on production 64-bit systems, so only actual 32-bit CPUs need to be shown here. When configuring 64-bit kernels, the options also pointless as there is no way to pick any CPU from the past 15 years, leaving GENERIC_CPU as the only sensible choice. Address both of the above by removing the obsolete options and making all 64-bit kernels run on both Intel and AMD CPUs from any generation. Testing generic 32-bit kernels on 64-bit hardware remains possible, just not building a 32-bit kernel that requires a 64-bit CPU.

x86/build: Rework CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU compiler flags
Building an x86-64 kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is documented to run on all CPUs, but the Makefile does not actually pass an -march= argument, instead relying on the default that was used to configure the toolchain. In many cases, gcc will be configured to -march=x86-64 or -march=k8 for maximum compatibility, but in other cases a distribution default may be either raised to a more recent ISA, or set to -march=native to build for the CPU used for compilation. This still works in the case of building a custom kernel for the local machine. The point where it breaks down is building a kernel for another machine that is older the the default target. Changing the default to -march=x86-64 would make it work reliable, but possibly produce worse code on distros that intentionally default to a newer ISA. To allow reliably building a kernel for either the oldest x86-64 CPUs, pass the -march=x86-64 flag to the compiler. This was not possible in early versions of x86-64 gcc, but works on all currently supported versions down to at least gcc-5.

x86/stackprotector/64: Convert to normal per-CPU variable
Older versions of GCC fixed the location of the stack protector canary at %gs:40. This constraint forced the percpu section to be linked at absolute address 0 so that the canary could be the first data object in the percpu section. Supporting the zero-based percpu section requires additional code to handle relocations for RIP-relative references to percpu data, extra complexity to kallsyms, and workarounds for linker bugs due to the use of absolute symbols. GCC 8.1 supports redefining where the canary is located, allowing it to become a normal percpu variable instead of at a fixed location. This removes the constraint that the percpu section must be zero-based.

x86/stackprotector: Work around strict Clang TLS symbol requirements
GCC and Clang both implement stack protector support based on Thread Local
Storage (TLS) variables, and this is used in the kernel to implement per-task
stack cookies, by copying a task's stack cookie into a per-CPU variable every
time it is scheduled in.
Both now also implement -mstack-protector-guard-symbol=, which permits the TLS
variable to be specified directly. This is useful because it will allow to
move away from using a fixed offset of 40 bytes into the per-CPU area on
x86_64, which requires a lot of special handling in the per-CPU code and the
runtime relocation code.
However, while GCC is rather lax in its implementation of this command line
option, Clang actually requires that the provided symbol name refers to a TLS
variable (i.e., one declared with __thread), although it also permits the
variable to be undeclared entirely, in which case it will use an implicit
declaration of the right type.
The upshot of this is that Clang will emit the correct references to the stack
cookie variable in most cases, e.g.,
10d: 64 a1 00 00 00 00 mov %fs:0x0,%eax
10f: R_386_32 __stack_chk_guard
However, if a non-TLS definition of the symbol in question is visible in the
same compilation unit (which amounts to the whole of vmlinux if LTO is
enabled), it will drop the per-CPU prefix and emit a load from a bogus
address.
Work around this by using a symbol name that never occurs in C code, and emit
it as an alias in the linker script.

rust: cfi: add support for CFI_CLANG with Rust
Make it possible to use the Control Flow Integrity (CFI) sanitizer when Rust is enabled. Enabling CFI with Rust requires that CFI is configured to normalize integer types so that all integer types of the same size and signedness are compatible under CFI. Rust and C use the same LLVM backend for code generation, so Rust KCFI is compatible with the KCFI used in the kernel for C. In the case of FineIBT, CFI also depends on -Zpatchable-function-entry for rewriting the function prologue, so we set that flag for Rust as well. The flag for FineIBT requires rustc 1.80.0 or later, so include a Kconfig requirement for that. Enabling Rust will select CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS because the flag is required to use Rust with CFI. Using select rather than `depends on` avoids the case where Rust is not visible in menuconfig due to CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS not being enabled. One disadvantage of select is that RUST must `depends on` all of the things that CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS depends on to avoid invalid configurations. Alice has been using KCFI on her phone for several months, so it is reasonably well tested on arm64.

in 1.76.0 [2], i.e. the equivalent of `-mfunction-return=thunk-extern`.
Thus add support for `MITIGATION_RETHUNK`.
Without this, `objtool` would warn if enabled for Rust and already warns
under IBT builds, e.g.:
samples/rust/rust_print.o: warning: objtool:
_R...init+0xa5c: 'naked' return found in RETHUNK build

x86/rust: support MITIGATION_RETPOLINE
Support `MITIGATION_RETPOLINE` by enabling the target features that
Clang does.
The existing target feature being enabled was a leftover from
our old `rust` branch, and it is not enough: the target feature
`retpoline-external-thunk` only implies `retpoline-indirect-calls`, but
not `retpoline-indirect-branches` (see LLVM's `X86.td`), unlike Clang's
flag of the same name `-mretpoline-external-thunk` which does imply both
(see Clang's `lib/Driver/ToolChains/Arch/X86.cpp`).
Without this, `objtool` would complain if enabled for Rust, e.g.:
rust/core.o: warning: objtool:
_R...escape_default+0x13: indirect jump found in RETPOLINE build
In addition, change the comment to note that LLVM is the one disabling
jump tables when retpoline is enabled, thus we do not need to use
`-Zno-jump-tables` for Rust here -- see commit c58f2166ab39 ("Introduce
the "retpoline" x86 mitigation technique ...") [1]:
The goal is simple: avoid generating code which contains an indirect
branch that could have its prediction poisoned by an attacker. In
many cases, the compiler can simply use directed conditional
branches and a small search tree. LLVM already has support for
lowering switches in this way and the first step of this patch is
to disable jump-table lowering of switches and introduce a pass to
rewrite explicit indirectbr sequences into a switch over integers.
As well as a live example at [2].
These should be eventually enabled via `-Ctarget-feature` when `rustc`
starts recognizing them (or via a new dedicated flag) [3].

arch: Select fbdev helpers with CONFIG_VIDEO
Various Kconfig options selected the per-architecture helpers for fbdev. But none of the contained code depends on fbdev. Standardize on CONFIG_VIDEO, which will allow to add more general helpers for video functionality. CONFIG_VIDEO protects each architecture's video/ directory. This allows for the use of more fine-grained control for each directory's files, such as the use of CONFIG_STI_CORE on parisc. v2: - sparc: rebased onto Makefile changes Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: "James E.J.

Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
memory via variables declared with such attributes,
which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
than the previous inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
better code.
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
to generate slightly better code.
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
to clean up the logic.
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.
[ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

x86: drop stack-alignment plugin opt
Now that the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel has been bumped to 13.0.1, the inner ifeq statement is always false, as the build will fail during the configuration stage for older LLVM versions. This effectively reverts part of commit |

Merge branch 'x86/vdso' into x86/core, to resolve conflict and to prepare for dependent changes
Conflicts: arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile We also want to change arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile in a followup commit, so merge the trees for this. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> |

kbuild: use 4-space indentation when followed by conditionals
GNU Make manual [1] clearly forbids a tab at the beginning of the
conditional directive line:
"Extra spaces are allowed and ignored at the beginning of the
conditional directive line, but a tab is not allowed."
This will not work for the next release of GNU Make, hence commit

rust: Refactor the build target to allow the use of builtin targets
Eventually we want all architectures to be using the target as defined by rustc. However currently some architectures can't do that and are using the target.json specification. This puts in place the foundation to allow the use of the builtin target definition or a target.json specification.

kbuild: Replace tabs with spaces when followed by conditionals
This is needed for the future (post make-4.4.1) versions of gnu make. Starting from https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=07fcee35f058a876447c8a021f9eb1943f902534 gnu make won't allow conditionals to follow recipe prefix. For example there is a tab followed by ifeq on line 324 in the root Makefile. With the new make this conditional causes the following $ make cpu.o /home/dgoncharov/src/linux-kbuild/Makefile:2063: *** missing 'endif'. Stop. make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Error 2 This patch replaces tabs followed by conditionals with 8 spaces. See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64185 and https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64259 for details.

x86/setup: Move internal setup_data structures into setup_data.h
Move struct_efi_setup_data in order to unify duplicated definition of the data structure in a single place. Also silence clang's warnings about GNU extensions in real-mode code which might occur from the changed includes.
