[PATCH 1/2] kbuild: provide include/asm/asm-prototypes.h for ARM

[PATCH 1/2] kbuild: provide include/asm/asm-prototypes.h for ARM

[Arnd Bergmann]

This adds an asm/asm-prototypes.h header for ARM to fix the broken symbol
versioning for symbols exported from assembler files.

I couldn't find the correct prototypes for the compiler builtins,
so I went with the fake 'void f(void)' prototypes that we had
before, restoring the state before they were moved.

Originally I assumed that the problem was just a harmless warning
in unusual configurations, but as Uwe found, we actually need this
to load most modules when symbol versioning is enabled, as it is
in many distro kernels.

Compared to the earlier version, I dropped the changes to the
csumpartial files, which now get handled correctly by Kbuild
even when the export comes from a macro, and I also dropped the
changes to the bitops files, which were already fixed in a
patch from Nico.

The patch applies cleanly on top of the rmk/fixes tree but has
no effect there, as it also needs 4efca4ed05cb ("kbuild: modversions
for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") and cc6acc11cad1 ("kbuild: be more
careful about matching preprocessed asm ___EXPORT_SYMBOL").

With the combination of rmk/fixes, torvalds/master and these two
patches, symbol versioning works again on ARM. As it is still
broken on almost all other architectures (powerpc is fixed,
x86 has a patch), I wonder if we should make CONFIG_MODVERSIONS
as broken for everything else.

[PATCH 2/2] ARM: move mmiocpy/mmioset exports to io.c

[Arnd Bergmann]

The prototypes for mmioset/mmiocpy are intentionally hidden
inside of inline functions, which breaks the EXPORT_SYMBOL
statements when symbol versioning is enabled.

This moves the two exports from the files that implement the
code into the kernel/io.c file, adding another local declaration
there.

I'm not sure I like this at all.

The goal for moving EXPORT_SYMBOL() to assembly code where symbols were 
defined is to make things close together and avoid those centralized 
list of symbols that you can easily miss when modifying the actual code.

This series is therefore bringing back a centralized list of symbols in 
a slightly different form, nullifying the advantages from having moved 
EXPORT_SYMBOL() to asm code.  To me this looks like a big step backward.

Why not simply extending the original idea of keeping exports close to 
the actual code by _also_ having a macro that provides the function 
prototype alongside the EXPORT_SYMBOL() instance?  That could even be 
expressed with some EXPORT_SYMBOL_PROTO(ret, sym, arg...) macro that 
does it all.

What you're saying is that you don't like the solution that's taken
weeks to get merged up to this point, so where do we go from here
now?  This crap has been broken since 4.9-rc1, and is a regression.

I think at this point, we just declare that modversions are broken
on ARM, and those who created this mess get to explain to people
why the fsck they broke the kernel.

4.9 is the next LTS kernel?  ROTFL!

I agree with Nicolas - it seems that the whole EXPORT_SYMBOL() crap
has just been a pointless exercise in churn, resulting only in
something "different" because it looks "cool" to do it some other
way.  There's no real benefit here at all, only harm.

Just revert the damned patches that created this breakage in the
first place please.  It's now way too late to be trying to fix it
any other way.

Exported symbols have C declarations in headers already. For the most
part, anyway -- these ones Arnd adds are for compiler runtime which is
why some architectures haven't had the prototypes.

Well, the reason is to get 4.9 working, I never thought asm-prototypes.h
was a beautiful solution or it should not be changed if we can find ways
to improve it.

EXPORT_SYMBOL_PROTO() for asm code seems possibly a good idea for 4.10.
Of course your exported symbols will still have their prototypes in
various headers -- that redundancy is inherent.

Hmmm. That's right.  That makes it much more justifiable.
My main objection is withdrawn.

However there is a bunch of includes added to asm-prototypes.h:

+#include <linux/arm-smccc.h>
+#include <linux/bitops.h>
+#include <linux/ftrace.h>
+#include <linux/io.h>
+#include <linux/platform_data/asoc-imx-ssi.h>
+#include <linux/string.h>
+#include <linux/uaccess.h>
+
+#include <asm/checksum.h>
+#include <asm/div64.h>
+#include <asm/memory.h>

Are those necessary at all?

Why not merge Arnd's 2 patches? I think he mostly addressed your concerns

4dd1837d7589 diffstat is entirely in arch/arm. I think reverting that
would fix it (I haven't tested it myself so I would advise testing
before committing). So the ball is in your court.

As for process concerns, you have made valid points. Sometimes a mistake
is made or we make an incorrect assumption about how another person works
or what mailing lists they have read, or do not anticipate the fallout
from some change.

Everyone does it sometimes, so it's never a bad time to reflect on how
we work with others and try to do better.

I don't see it makes any difference - the armksyms.c originally had
the same:

-#include <linux/export.h>
-#include <linux/sched.h>
-#include <linux/string.h>
-#include <linux/cryptohash.h>
-#include <linux/delay.h>
-#include <linux/in6.h>
-#include <linux/syscalls.h>
-#include <linux/uaccess.h>
-#include <linux/io.h>
-#include <linux/arm-smccc.h>
-
-#include <asm/checksum.h>
-#include <asm/ftrace.h>

followed by prototypes for the GCC internal functions, and:

-extern void fpundefinstr(void);
-
-void mmioset(void *, unsigned int, size_t);
-void mmiocpy(void *, const void *, size_t);

So, the asm-prototypes.h approach is just the same, only that we now
have a bunch of prototypes in a header file, and the EXPORT_SYMBOL()s
in the assembly files.

As the C prototypes are remote from the definitions, it means that
the C prototypes are going to get forgotten about in exactly the same
way that armksyms.c would've been forgotten about too.

It _is_ worse than that though - with the armksyms.c approach, if the
assembly code for it is removed, you get a build error reminding you
to remove the export (and prototype).  With this approach, you get no
reminder to touch asm-prototypes.h.

It's also error prone for another reason - adding a new assembly level
export, if you forget to add it to asm-prototypes.h, we're back into
the problem we have right now with MODVERSIONS breaking.

So, I still think the whole approach is wrong - it's added extra
fragility that wasn't there with the armksyms.c approach.

I don't see it makes any difference - the armksyms.c originally had
the same:

-#include <linux/export.h>
-#include <linux/sched.h>
-#include <linux/string.h>
-#include <linux/cryptohash.h>
-#include <linux/delay.h>
-#include <linux/in6.h>
-#include <linux/syscalls.h>
-#include <linux/uaccess.h>
-#include <linux/io.h>
-#include <linux/arm-smccc.h>
-
-#include <asm/checksum.h>
-#include <asm/ftrace.h>

followed by prototypes for the GCC internal functions, and:

-extern void fpundefinstr(void);
-
-void mmioset(void *, unsigned int, size_t);
-void mmiocpy(void *, const void *, size_t);

So, the asm-prototypes.h approach is just the same, only that we now
have a bunch of prototypes in a header file, and the EXPORT_SYMBOL()s
in the assembly files.

As the C prototypes are remote from the definitions, it means that
the C prototypes are going to get forgotten about in exactly the same
way that armksyms.c would've been forgotten about too.

It _is_ worse than that though - with the armksyms.c approach, if the
assembly code for it is removed, you get a build error reminding you
to remove the export (and prototype).  With this approach, you get no
reminder to touch asm-prototypes.h.

It's also error prone for another reason - adding a new assembly level
export, if you forget to add it to asm-prototypes.h, we're back into
the problem we have right now with MODVERSIONS breaking.

So, I still think the whole approach is wrong - it's added extra
fragility that wasn't there with the armksyms.c approach.

Here's what the diffstat and patch looks like when you combine the
original commit and the three fixes.  The LoC delta of 25 lines can
be accounted for as deleted commentry.  So, I think (as I've detailed
above) that the _technical_ benefit of the approach is very low.

If we want to move the exports into assembly files, I've no problem
with that, provided we can do it better than this - and by better I
mean not creating the fragile asm-prototypes.h which divorses the
prototypes from everything else.

Looking at _this_ patch, there's also an issue with the __raw_*
functions which are conditionally exported, which isn't taken account
of in these fixes.  We currently build most of the io-*.S files whether
we use them or not, and rely on the linker's archive processing, along
with the ifdefs in armksyms to omit them from the kernel image.  This
won't happen with this new approach.

So, I'm reverting the original commit today, because there's no clear
benefit, it's fragile, and I think there's still a few corner cases
that need to be fixed.  We can revisit when we have more time to
properly review and test these changes, rather than at what is now the
11th hour.

Here's what the diffstat and patch looks like when you combine the
original commit and the three fixes.  The LoC delta of 25 lines can
be accounted for as deleted commentry.  So, I think (as I've detailed
above) that the _technical_ benefit of the approach is very low.

If we want to move the exports into assembly files, I've no problem
with that, provided we can do it better than this - and by better I
mean not creating the fragile asm-prototypes.h which divorses the
prototypes from everything else.

Looking at _this_ patch, there's also an issue with the __raw_*
functions which are conditionally exported, which isn't taken account
of in these fixes.  We currently build most of the io-*.S files whether
we use them or not, and rely on the linker's archive processing, along
with the ifdefs in armksyms to omit them from the kernel image.  This
won't happen with this new approach.

So, I'm reverting the original commit today, because there's no clear
benefit, it's fragile, and I think there's still a few corner cases
that need to be fixed.  We can revisit when we have more time to
properly review and test these changes, rather than at what is now the
11th hour.

I think we agree on that.

I see that the revert made it to Linus' tree.  That's probably the best 
outcome for now.

I was working on that better solution I alluded to previously. And it 
isn't really complicated either, with much fewer lines of code.  But 
this can wait for the next merge window.

Yes, that's a limitation. cpp expansion we can handle, but not gas macros.
You will need Arnd's patches for ARM.

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kbuild&m=147732160529499&w=2

If that doesn't fix it for you, send me your .config offline and I'll set
up a cross compile to work on it.

Again, any arch always has the option of going back to doing asm exports
in the old style of putting them into a .c file, but hopefully you'll find
Arnd's reworked patches to be something you're willing to merge.

Thanks,
Nick

Hmm, those seem to have gone in during the last week, so I haven't
tested it yet (build running, but it'll take a while).  However, I
don't think they'll solve _this_ problem.

Some of the issue here is that we use a mixture of assembly macros
and preprocessor for the ARM bitops - the ARM bitops are created
with an assembly macro which contains some pre-processor expanded
macros (eg, EXPORT_SYMBOL()).

This means that the actual symbol being exported is not known to
the preprocessor, so doing the "__is_defined(__KSYM_##sym)" inside
"EXPORT_SYMBOL(\name)" becomes "__is_defined(__KSYM_\name)" to the
preprocessor.  As "__KSYM_\name" is never defined, it always comes
out as zero, hence we always use __cond_export_sym_0, which omits
the symbol export from the assembly macro definition:

 .macro bitop, name, instr
.globl \name ; .align 0 ; \name:

...

.type \name, %function; .size \name, .-\name

 .endm

In other words, using preprocessor macros inside an assembly macro
may not work as expected, and now leads to config-specific failures.

Hmm. I've got

So what's the conclusion on this?  I've just had a failure due to
CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS reported on ARM, and it looks like (at
least some of) patch 1 could resolve it.

Do we need to split patch 1?

Has any of these patches been committed yet?

This looks nicer. I like variant B because it keeps the GENKSYMS cruft to
a single location, but either one isn't too bad.

I'd like to get moving on this, so let's at least get the generic kbuild
change merged. In the end, the kbuild code does not prevent a maintainer
from putting their EXPORT_SYMBOL in whatever location they like, so there
is no reason not to merge it (certainly there will be archs that do use
it).

Michal, what's your thoughts? If you merge my patch 2/2 and skip 1/2, it
should not give any new build warnings or errors, so then arch patches can
go via arch trees. 1/2 could go in after everyone is up to date.

Thanks,

[PATCH 1/2] kbuild: provide include/asm/asm-prototypes.h for ARM

[Arnd Bergmann]

This adds an asm/asm-prototypes.h header for ARM to fix the
broken symbol versioning for symbols exported from assembler
files.

In addition to the header, we have to do these other small
changes:

- move the exports from bitops.h to {change,clear,set,...}bit.S
- move the exports from csumpartialgeneric.S into the files
  including it

I couldn't find the correct prototypes for the compiler builtins,
so I went with the fake 'void f(void)' prototypes that we had
before.

This leaves the mmioset/mmiocpy function for now, as it's not
obvious how to best handle them.
