Arnd Bergmann a76bcf557e Kbuild: enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning for "make W=1"
Traditionally, we have always had warnings about uninitialized variables
enabled, as this is part of -Wall, and generally a good idea [1], but it
also always produced false positives, mainly because this is a variation
of the halting problem and provably impossible to get right in all cases
[2].

Various people have identified cases that are particularly bad for false
positives, and in commit e74fc973b6 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized
when building with -Os"), I turned off the warning for any build that
was done with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.  This drastically reduced the number
of false positive warnings in the default build but unfortunately had
the side effect of turning the warning off completely in 'allmodconfig'
builds, which in turn led to a lot of warnings (both actual bugs, and
remaining false positives) to go in unnoticed.

With commit 877417e6ff ("Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
definition") enabled the warning again for allmodconfig builds in v4.7
and in v4.8-rc1, I had finally managed to address all warnings I get in
an ARM allmodconfig build and most other maybe-uninitialized warnings
for ARM randconfig builds.

However, commit 6e8d666e92 ("Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning
globally") was merged at the same time and disabled it completely for
all configurations, because of false-positive warnings on x86 that I had
not addressed until then.  This caused a lot of actual bugs to get
merged into mainline, and I sent several dozen patches for these during
the v4.9 development cycle.  Most of these are actual bugs, some are for
correct code that is safe because it is only called under external
constraints that make it impossible to run into the case that gcc sees,
and in a few cases gcc is just stupid and finds something that can
obviously never happen.

I have now done a few thousand randconfig builds on x86 and collected
all patches that I needed to address every single warning I got (I can
provide the combined patch for the other warnings if anyone is
interested), so I hope we can get the warning back and let people catch
the actual bugs earlier.

This reverts the change to disable the warning completely and for now
brings it back at the "make W=1" level, so we can get it merged into
mainline without introducing false positives.  A follow-up patch enables
it on all levels unless some configuration option turns it off because
of false-positives.

Vineet Gupta 2d04864247 ARC: dw2 unwind: don't force dwarf 2
In .debug_frame based unwinding regime, we used to force -gdwarf-2 since
kernel unwinder only claimed to handle dwarf 2. This changed since commit
6d0d506012 ("ARC: dw2 unwind: Don't bail for CIE.version != 1")
which added some support beyond dwarf 2, atleast to handle CIE != 1

The ill-effect of -gdwarf-2 is that it forces generation of .debug_*
sections, which bloats loadable modules .ko files. For the curious, this
doesn't affect vmlinx binary since linker script discards .debug_* but
same discard is not yet implemented for modules.

So it seems we can drop the -gdwarf-2 toggle, which should not be needed
anyways given that we now use .eh_frame based unwinding.

I've verified using GNU 2016.09-engo10 that the actual unwind info is
not different with or w/o this toggle - but the debug_* sections are
gone for good.

Vineet Gupta 6716dbbdef ARC: dw2 unwind: switch to .eh_frame based unwinding
So finally after almost 8 years of dealing with .debug_frame, we are
finally switching to .eh_frame. The reason being stripped kernel
binaries had non-functional unwinder as .debug_frame was gone.
Also, in general .eh_frame seems more common way of doing unwinding.

This also folds a revert of f52e126cc7 ("ARC: unwind: ensure that
.debug_frame is generated (vs. .eh_frame)") to ensure that we start
getting .eh_frame

Linus Torvalds 6e8d666e92 Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning globally
Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because
it generates a lot of false positives.  But some had not, and it was
still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example.

Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a
false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough)
that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the
noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized.

The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning
that causes more problems than the warning can solve.

If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to
re-enable this warning.  But as is, we're better off without it, and I
want to be able to see the *real* warnings.

Vineet Gupta f52e126cc7 ARC: unwind: ensure that .debug_frame is generated (vs. .eh_frame)
With recent binutils update to support dwarf CFI pseudo-ops in gas, we
now get .eh_frame vs. .debug_frame. Although the call frame info is
exactly the same in both, the CIE differs, which the current kernel
unwinder can't cope with.

This broke both the kernel unwinder as well as loadable modules (latter
because of a new unhandled relo R_ARC_32_PCREL from .rela.eh_frame in
the module loader)

The ideal solution would be to switch unwinder to .eh_frame.
For now however we can make do by just ensureing .debug_frame is
generated by removing -fasynchronous-unwind-tables

 .eh_frame    generated with -gdwarf-2 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables
 .debug_frame generated with -gdwarf-2

Vineet Gupta a69fe1a2c9 ARC: build: Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized for ARC gcc 4.8
linux-next has been reporting gazillion warnings for ARC build and
I finally decided to take a bite:

http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/12638735/

Most of the them are due to -Wmaybe-uninitialized

| ../kernel/sysctl.c: In function '__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax':
| ../kernel/sysctl.c:1928:12: warning: 'p' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
|   ret = tmp - *buf;
|            ^
| ../kernel/sysctl.c:2342:29: note: 'p' was declared here
|  char *kbuf = NULL, *p;
|                     ^
| ...
| ...

Cursory look at code seemed fine and a definite gcc false positive in say
kernel/sysctl.c

Mystery was why only for ARC (and not with ARM linaro toolchain based
off same gcc 4.8). Turns out that -O3 (default for ARC) triggers these
and if I enable -O3 for ARM kernel build, I see the same splat.

I initially wanted to disable this only for gcc 4.8, but Arnd reported
it is seen even on gcc 6.0 for ARM with -O3. Thus better to disable
this independent of gcc version.

Vineet Gupta 20d780374c ARC: build: Better way to detect ISA compatible toolchain
ARC architecture has 2 instruction sets: ARCompact/ARCv2.
While same gcc supports compiling for either (using appropriate toggles),
we can't use the same toolchain to build kernel because libgcc needs
to be unique and the toolchian (uClibc based) is not multilibed.

uClibc toolchain is convenient since it allows all userspace and
kernel to be built with a single install for an ISA.

This however means 2 gnu installs (with same triplet prefix) are needed
for building for 2 ISA and need to be in PATH.
As developers we keep switching the builds, but would occassionally fail
to update the PATH leading to usage of wrong tools. And this would only
show up at the end of kernel build when linking incompatible libgcc.

So the initial solution was to have gcc define a special preprocessor macro
DEFAULT_CPU_xxx which is unique for default toolchain configuration.
Claudiu proposed using grep for an existing preprocessor macro which is
again uniquely defined per ISA.

Vineet Gupta 07fd7d4bbc ARC: Fix linking errors with CONFIG_MODULE + CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
At -Os, ARC gcc generates millicode thunk for function prologue/epilogue,
which are served by libgcc.

Modules historically are NOT linked with libgcc to avoid code bloat, reducing
runtime relocation fixups etc. I even once tried doing that but got lost
in makefile intricacies.

This means modules at -Os don't get the millicode thunks, causing build
failures below:

| MODPOST 5 modules
| ERROR: "__ld_r13_to_r18" [crypto/sha256_generic.ko] undefined!
| ERROR: "__ld_r13_to_r18_ret" [crypto/sha256_generic.ko] undefined!

Workaround that by inhibiting millicode thunks for loadable modules

Vineet Gupta 9770906921 ARC: Override toplevel default -O2 with -O3
ARC kernels have historically been built with -O3, despite top level
Makefile defaulting to -O2. This was facilitated by implicitly ordering
of arch makefile include AFTER top level assigned -O2.

An upstream fix to top level a1c48bb160 ("Makefile: Fix unrecognized
cross-compiler command line options") changed the ordering, making ARC
-O3 defunct.

Fix that by NOT relying on any ordering whatsoever and use the proper

Christian Ruppert 072eb69390 ARC: [TB10x] Add support for TB10x platform
Infrastructure required to make the Linux kernel compile and boot on the
Abilis Systems TB10x series of SOCs based on ARC700 CPUs:
  - Kmake related files (Kconfig, Makefile, tb10x_defconfig)
  - TB10x platform initialisation

Vineet Gupta 104058ede7 ARC: [build] Allow uncompressed uImage
The existing uImage target always generates gzip compressed image which
drags bootup for some very slow FPGA customer boards.

So introduce seperate make targets:uImage.{bin,gz} with uncompressed
being default. Also tie gz generation to CONFIG_KERNEL_GZIP, which a
platform can select in it's Kconfig if it wishes gz to be default.

Vineet Gupta af4c3ae399 ARC: [build] silence make defconfig warnings with host gcc 4.7
We do cross compiles for ARC Linux.
With gcc 4.7, a make defconfig spews out the following:

------------------->8--------------------------
make ARCH=arc defconfig
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-marc600'
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mA7'
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-sdata'
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-mpy'
*** Default configuration is based on 'fpga_defconfig'
------------------->8--------------------------

This apparently is coming from LIBGCC line - which is strange to be
invoked for defconfig generation.

Vineet Gupta e97ff121ae ARC: [Review] Multi-platform image #4: Isolate platform headers
-Top level ARC makefile removes -I for platform headers
-asm/irq.h no longer includes plat/irq.h

-platform makefile adds -I for it's specfic platform headers
-platform code to directly include it's plat/irq.h

-Linker script needed plat/memmap.h for CCM info, already in .config

Vineet Gupta 41195d236e ARC: SMP support
ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions.

ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are
are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This
includes:
-Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI)
-Cache coherency
-load-locked/store-conditional
...

The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP
because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit
of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler
prologues to keep them re-entrant.

Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to
SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help
with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012).

Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so
multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is
addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

Vineet Gupta 999159a538 ARC: [DeviceTree] Basic support
This is minimal infrastructure needed for devicetree work.
It uses an a sample "skeleton" devicetree - embedded in kernel image -
to print the board, manufacturer by parsing the top-level "compatible"
string.

As of now we don't need any additional "board" specific "machine_desc".

TODO: support interpreting the command line as boot-loader passed dtb

Vineet Gupta cfdbc2e16e ARC: Build system: Makefiles, Kconfig, Linker script
Arnd in his review pointed out that arch Kconfig organisation has several
deficiencies:

* Build time entries for things which can be runtime extracted from DT
  (e.g. SDRAM size, core clk frequency..)
* Not multi-platform-image-build friendly (choice .. endchoice constructs)
* cpu variants support (750/770) is exclusive.

The first 2 have been fixed in subsequent patches.
Due to the nature of the 750 and 770, it is not possible to build for
both together, w/o special runtime glue code which would hurt
performance.
