When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses
the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an
EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the
second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their
EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op.
Linus stated negative opinions about this slowness in commits:
- 5cf0fd591f ("Kbuild: disable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option")
- a555bdd0c5 ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some guarding")
We can do this better now. The final data structures of EXPORT_SYMBOL
are generated by the modpost stage, so modpost can selectively emit
KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules.
Commit f73edc8951 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") is another
ground-work to do this in a one-pass algorithm. With the list of modules,
modpost sets sym->used if it is used by a module. modpost emits KSYMTAB
only for symbols with sym->used==true.
BTW, Nicolas explained why the trimming was implemented with recursion:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/2o2rpn97-79nq-p7s2-nq5-8p83391473r@syhkavp.arg/
Actually, we never achieved that level of optimization where the chain
reaction of trimming comes into play because:
- CONFIG_LTO_CLANG cannot remove any unused symbols
- CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is enabled only for vmlinux,
but not modules
If deeper trimming is required, we need to revisit this, but I guess
that is unlikely to happen.

fixdep is designed only for parsing text files. read_file() appends
a terminating null byte ('\0') and parse_config_file() calls strstr()
to search for CONFIG options.

The dep files (*.d files) emitted by C compilers usually contain the
deduplicated list of included files.
One exceptional case is when a header is included by the -include
command line option, and also by #include directive.
For example, the top Makefile adds the command line option,
"-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h". You do not need to
include <linux/kconfig.h> in every source file.
In fact, include/linux/kconfig.h is listed twice in many .*.cmd files
due to include/linux/xarray.h having "#include <linux/kconfig.h>".
I did not fix that since it is a small redundancy.
However, this is more annoying for rustc. rustc emits the dependency
for each emission type.
For example, cmd_rustc_library emits dep-info, obj, and metadata.
So, the emitted *.d file contains the dependency for those 3 targets,
which makes fixdep parse the same file 3 times.
$ grep rust/alloc/raw_vec.rs rust/.alloc.o.cmd
rust/alloc/raw_vec.rs \
rust/alloc/raw_vec.rs \
rust/alloc/raw_vec.rs \

fixdep understands minimal Makefile syntax. It works well enough for

The cmd-check macro compares $(cmd_$@) and $(cmd_$1), but a pitfall is
that you cannot use cmd_<target> as the variable name for the command.
For example, the following code will not work in the top Makefile
or ./Kbuild.
quiet_cmd_foo = GEN $@
cmd_foo = touch $@
targets += foo
foo: FORCE
$(call if_changed,foo)
In this case, both $@ and $1 are expanded to 'foo', so $(cmd_check)
is always empty.
We do not need to use the same prefix for cmd_$@ and cmd_$1.

This is unneeded since commit 69304379ff ("fixdep: use fflush() and
ferror() to ensure successful write to files").
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
Currently, fixdep checks the return value from (v)printf(), but it does
not ensure the complete write to the .cmd file.
printf() just writes data to the internal buffer, which usually succeeds.
(Of course, it may fail for another reason, for example when the file
descriptor is closed, but that is another story.)
When the buffer (4k?) is full, an actual write occurs, and printf() may
really fail. One of typical cases is "No space left on device" when the
disk is full.
The data remaining in the buffer will be pushed out to the file when
the program exits, but we never know if it is successful.
One straight-forward fix would be to add the following code at the end
of the program.
ret = fflush(stdout);
if (ret < 0) {
/* error handling */
}
However, it is tedious to check the return code in all the call sites
of printf(), fflush(), fclose(), and whatever can cause actual writes
to the end device. Doing that lets the program bail out at the first
failure but is usually not worth the effort.
Instead, let's check the error status from ferror(). This is 'sticky',
so you need to check it just once. You still need to call fflush().

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

This is probably stale code. In old days (~ Linux 2.5.59), Kbuild made

When there is not enough space on your storage device, the build will
fail with 'No space left on device' error message.
The reason is obvious from the message, so you will free up some disk
space, then you will resume the build.
However, sometimes you may still see a mysterious error message:
unterminated call to function 'wildcard': missing ')'.
If you run out of the disk space, fixdep may end up with generating
incomplete .*.cmd files.
For example, if the disk-full error occurs while fixdep is running
print_dep(), the .*.cmd might be truncated like this:
$(wildcard include/config/
When you run 'make' next time, this broken .*.cmd will be included,
then Make will terminate parsing since it is a wrong syntax.
Once this happens, you need to run 'make clean' or delete the broken
.*.cmd file manually.
Even if you do not see any error message, the .*.cmd files after any
error could be potentially incomplete, and unreliable. You may miss
the re-compilation due to missing header dependency.
If printf() cannot output the string for disk shortage or whatever
reason, it returns a negative value, but currently fixdep does not
check it at all. Consequently, fixdep *successfully* generates a
broken .*.cmd file. Make never notices that since fixdep exits with 0,
which means success.
Given the intended usage of fixdep, it must respect the return value
of not only malloc(), but also printf() and putchar().
This seems a long-standing issue since the introduction of fixdep.
In old days, Kbuild tried to provide an extra safety by letting fixdep
output to a temporary file and renaming it after everything is done:
scripts/basic/fixdep $(depfile) $@ '$(make-cmd)' > $(dot-target).tmp;\
rm -f $(depfile); \
mv -f $(dot-target).tmp $(dot-target).cmd)
It was no help to avoid the current issue; fixdep successfully created
a truncated tmp file, which would be renamed to a .*.cmd file.
This problem should be fixed by propagating the error status to the
build system because:
[1] Since commit 9c2af1c737 ("kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special
target"), Make will delete the target automatically on any failure
in the recipe.
[2] Since commit 392885ee82 ("kbuild: let fixdep directly write to
.*.cmd files"), .*.cmd file is included only when the corresponding
target already exists.

My main motivation of this commit is to clean up scripts/Kbuild.include
and scripts/Makefile.build.
Currently, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS works with a tricky gimmick;
possibly exported symbols are detected by letting $(CPP) replace
EXPORT_SYMBOL* with a special string '=== __KSYM_*===', which is
post-processed by sed, and passed to fixdep. The extra preprocessing
is costly, and hacking cmd_and_fixdep is ugly.
I came up with a new way to find exported symbols; insert a dummy
symbol __ksym_marker_* to each potentially exported symbol. Those
dummy symbols are picked up by $(NM), post-processed by sed, then
appended to .*.cmd files. I collected the post-process part to a
new shell script scripts/gen_ksymdeps.sh for readability. The dummy
symbols are put into the .discard.* section so that the linker
script rips them off the final vmlinux or modules.
A nice side-effect is building with CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS will
be much faster.

done by make), which I think we can live with:

we should just put kconfig.h in the dependency list without parsing it
for the CONFIG_ pattern, we actually do have some real CONFIG_ symbols
mentioned in it, and one can imagine some translation unit that just
does '#ifdef __BIG_ENDIAN' but doesn't through some other header
actually depend on CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN - so changing the target
endianness could end up rebuilding the world, minus that small

Now, do_config_files() and print_deps() are almost the same. Only
the difference is the parser function called (parse_config_file vs
parse_dep_file).
We can reduce the code duplication by factoring out the common code
into read_file() - this function allocates a buffer and loads a file
to it. It returns the pointer to the allocated buffer. (As before,
it bails out by exit(2) for any error.) The caller must free the
buffer when done.
Having empty source files is possible; fixdep should simply skip them.
I deleted the "st.st_size == 0" check, so read_file() allocates 1-byte
buffer for an empty file. strstr() will immediately return NULL, and
this is what we expect.
On the other hand, an empty dep_file should be treated as an error.
In this case, parse_dep_file() will error out with "no targets found"
and it is a correct error message.

Commit dee81e9886 ("fixdep: faster CONFIG_ search") changed how to
read files in which CONFIG options are searched. It used malloc()
and read() instead of mmap() because it needed to zero-terminate the
buffer in order to use strstr(). print_deps() was left untouched
since there was no reason to change it.
Now, I have two motivations to change it in the same way.
- do_config_file() and print_deps() do quite similar things; they
open a file, load it onto memory, and pass it to a parser function.
If we use malloc() and read() for print_deps() too, we can factor
out the common code. (I will do this in the next commit.)
- parse_dep_file() copies each token to a temporary buffer because
it needs to zero-terminate it to be passed to printf(). It is not
possible to modify the buffer directly because it is mmap'ed with
O_RDONLY. If we load the file content into a malloc'ed buffer, we
can insert '\0' after each token, and save memcpy(). (I will do
this in the commit after next.)

do_config_file() should exit with an error code on internal run-time
errors, and not return if it fails as then the error in do_config_file()

The exit with error code will make the build fail in those very
exceptional cases. If this occurs, this actually indicates a deeper
problem in the execution of the kernel build process.
Now, in these error cases, we do not explicitly free memory and close
the file handlers in do_config_file(), as this is covered by exit().

Like with kconfig options, we now have the ability to compile in and
out individual EXPORT_SYMBOL() declarations based on the content of
include/generated/autoksyms.h. However we don't want the entire
world to be rebuilt whenever that file is touched.
Let's apply the same build dependency trick used for CONFIG_* symbols
where the time stamp of empty files whose paths matching those symbols
is used to trigger fine grained rebuilds. In our case the key is the
symbol name passed to EXPORT_SYMBOL().
However, unlike config options, we cannot just use fixdep to parse
the source code for EXPORT_SYMBOL(ksym) because several variants exist
and parsing them all in a separate tool, and keeping it in synch, is
not trivially maintainable. Furthermore, there are variants such as
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pci_user_read_config_##size);
that are instanciated via a macro for which we can't easily determine
the actual exported symbol name(s) short of actually running the
preprocessor on them.
Storing the symbol name string in a special ELF section doesn't work
for targets that output assembly or preprocessed source.
So the best way is really to leverage the preprocessor by having it
output actual symbol names anchored by a special sequence that can be
easily filtered out. Then the list of symbols is simply fed to fixdep
to be merged with the other dependencies.
That implies the preprocessor is executed twice for each source file.
A previous attempt relied on a warning pragma for each EXPORT_SYMBOL()
instance that was filtered apart from stderr by the build system with
a sed script during the actual compilation pass. Unfortunately the
preprocessor/compiler diagnostic output isn't stable between versions
and this solution, although more efficient, was deemed too fragile.
Because of the lowercasing performed by fixdep, there might be name
collisions triggering spurious rebuilds for similar symbols. But this
shouldn't be a big issue in practice. (This is the case for CONFIG_*
symbols and I didn't want to be different here, whatever the original
reason for doing so.)
To avoid needless build overhead, the exported symbol name gathering is
performed only when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is selected.

The current use-case for fixdep is: a source file is run through a single
processing step, which creates a single dependency file as a side-effect,
which fixdep transforms into the file used by the kernel build process.
In order to transparently run the C pre-processor on device-tree files,
we wish to run both gcc -E and dtc on a source file in a single rule.
This generates two dependency files, which must be transformed together
into the file used by the kernel build process. This change modifies
fixdep so it can process the concatenation of multiple separate input
dependency files, and produce a correct unified output.
The code changes have the slight benefit of transforming the loop in
parse_dep_file() into more of a lexer/tokenizer, with the loop body being
more of a parser. Previously, some of this logic was mixed together
before the loop. I also added some comments, which I hope are useful.
Benchmarking shows that on a cross-compiled ARM tegra_defconfig build,
