arch: Introduce CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT

Generic function-alignment infrastructure.

Architectures can select FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_xxB symbols; the
FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT symbol is then set to the largest such selected
size, 0 otherwise.

From this the -falign-functions compiler argument and __ALIGN macro
are set.

This incorporates the DEBUG_FORCE_FUNCTION_ALIGN_64B knob and future
alignment requirements for x86_64 (later in this series) into a single
place.

NOTE: also removes the 0x90 filler byte from the generic __ALIGN
primitive, that value makes no sense outside of x86.

NOTE: .balign 0 reverts to a no-op.

linkage: Fix issue with missing symbol size

Occasionally, typically when a function doesn't end with 'ret', an
alias on that function will have 0 size.

The difference between what GCC generates and our linkage magic, is
that GCC doesn't appear to provide .size for the alias'ed symbol at
all. And indeed, removing this directive cures the issue.

Additionally, GCC also doesn't emit .type for alias symbols either, so
also omit that.

# e0891269 16-Feb-2022 Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

linkage: add SYM_FUNC_ALIAS{,_LOCAL,_WEAK}()

Currently aliasing an asm function requires adding START and END
annotations for each name, as per Documentation/asm-annotations.rst:

SYM_FUNC_START_AL

linkage: add SYM_FUNC_ALIAS{,_LOCAL,_WEAK}()

Currently aliasing an asm function requires adding START and END
annotations for each name, as per Documentation/asm-annotations.rst:

SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS(__memset)
SYM_FUNC_START(memset)
... asm insns ...
SYM_FUNC_END(memset)
SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS(__memset)

This is more painful than necessary to maintain, especially where a
function has many aliases, some of which we may wish to define
conditionally. For example, arm64's memcpy/memmove implementation (which
uses some arch-specific SYM_*() helpers) has:

SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS(__memmove)
SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS_WEAK_PI(memmove)
SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS(__memcpy)
SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI(memcpy)
... asm insns ...
SYM_FUNC_END_PI(memcpy)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(memcpy)
SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS(__memcpy)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__memcpy)
SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS_PI(memmove)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(memmove)
SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS(__memmove)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__memmove)
SYM_FUNC_START(name)

It would be much nicer if we could define the aliases *after* the
standard function definition. This would avoid the need to specify each
symbol name twice, and would make it easier to spot the canonical
function definition.

This patch adds new macros to allow us to do so, which allows the above
example to be rewritten more succinctly as:

SYM_FUNC_START(__pi_memcpy)
... asm insns ...
SYM_FUNC_END(__pi_memcpy)

SYM_FUNC_ALIAS(__memcpy, __pi_memcpy)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__memcpy)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS_WEAK(memcpy, __memcpy)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(memcpy)

SYM_FUNC_ALIAS(__pi_memmove, __pi_memcpy)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS(__memmove, __pi_memmove)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__memmove)
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS_WEAK(memmove, __memmove)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(memmove)

The reduction in duplication will also make it possible to replace some
uses of WEAK with more accurate Kconfig guards, e.g.

#ifndef CONFIG_KASAN
SYM_FUNC_ALIAS(memmove, __memmove)
EXPORT_SYMBOL(memmove)
#endif

... which should make it easier to ensure that symbols are neither used
nor overidden unexpectedly.

The existing SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS() and SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_ALIAS() are
marked as deprecated, and will be removed once existing users are moved
over to the new scheme.

The tools/perf/ copy of linkage.h is updated to match. A subsequent
patch will depend upon this when updating the x86 asm annotations.

x86/entry: Emit a symbol for register restoring thunk

Arnd found a randconfig that produces the warning:

arch/x86/entry/thunk_64.o: warning: objtool: missing symbol for insn at
offset 0x3e

when building with LLVM_IAS=1 (Clang's integrated assembler). Josh
notes:

With the LLVM assembler not generating section symbols, objtool has no
way to reference this code when it generates ORC unwinder entries,
because this code is outside of any ELF function.

The limitation now being imposed by objtool is that all code must be
contained in an ELF symbol. And .L symbols don't create such symbols.

So basically, you can use an .L symbol *inside* a function or a code
segment, you just can't use the .L symbol to contain the code using a
SYM_*_START/END annotation pair.

Fangrui notes that this optimization is helpful for reducing image size
when compiling with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections. I have
observed on the order of tens of thousands of symbols for the kernel
images built with those flags.

A patch has been authored against GNU binutils to match this behavior
of not generating unused section symbols ([1]), so this will
also become a problem for users of GNU binutils once they upgrade to 2.36.

Omit the .L prefix on a label so that the assembler will emit an entry
into the symbol table for the label, with STB_LOCAL binding. This
enables objtool to generate proper unwind info here with LLVM_IAS=1 or
GNU binutils 2.36+.

Now, ENTRY/ENDPROC can be forced to be undefined on X86, so do so.

linkage: Introduce new macros for assembler symbols

Introduce new C macros for annotations of functions and data in
assembly. There is a long-standing mess in macros like ENTRY, END,
ENDPROC and similar. They are used in different manners and sometimes
incorrectly.

So introduce macros with clear use to annotate assembly as follows:

a) Support macros for the ones below
SYM_T_FUNC -- type used by assembler to mark functions
SYM_T_OBJECT -- type used by assembler to mark data
SYM_T_NONE -- type used by assembler to mark entries of unknown type

They are defined as STT_FUNC, STT_OBJECT, and STT_NOTYPE
respectively. According to the gas manual, this is the most portable
way. I am not sure about other assemblers, so this can be switched
back to %function and %object if this turns into a problem.
Architectures can also override them by something like ", @function"
if they need.

SYM_A_ALIGN, SYM_A_NONE -- align the symbol?
SYM_L_GLOBAL, SYM_L_WEAK, SYM_L_LOCAL -- linkage of symbols

b) Mostly internal annotations, used by the ones below
SYM_ENTRY -- use only if you have to (for non-paired symbols)
SYM_START -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols)
SYM_END -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols)

c) Annotations for code
SYM_INNER_LABEL_ALIGN -- only for labels in the middle of code
SYM_INNER_LABEL -- only for labels in the middle of code

SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_ALIAS -- use where there are two local names for
one function
SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS -- use where there are two global names for one
function
SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS -- the end of LOCAL_ALIASed or ALIASed function

SYM_FUNC_START -- use for global functions
SYM_FUNC_START_NOALIGN -- use for global functions, w/o alignment
SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL -- use for local functions
SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local functions, w/o
alignment
SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK -- use for weak functions
SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_NOALIGN -- use for weak functions, w/o alignment
SYM_FUNC_END -- the end of SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL, SYM_FUNC_START,
SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK, ...

For functions with special (non-C) calling conventions:
SYM_CODE_START -- use for non-C (special) functions
SYM_CODE_START_NOALIGN -- use for non-C (special) functions, w/o
alignment
SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL -- use for local non-C (special) functions
SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local non-C (special)
functions, w/o alignment
SYM_CODE_END -- the end of SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL or SYM_CODE_START

d) For data
SYM_DATA_START -- global data symbol
SYM_DATA_START_LOCAL -- local data symbol
SYM_DATA_END -- the end of the SYM_DATA_START symbol
SYM_DATA_END_LABEL -- the labeled end of SYM_DATA_START symbol
SYM_DATA -- start+end wrapper around simple global data
SYM_DATA_LOCAL -- start+end wrapper around simple local data

==========

The macros allow to pair starts and ends of functions and mark functions
correctly in the output ELF objects.

All users of the old macros in x86 are converted to use these in further
patches.

linkage: add generic GLOBAL() macro

Declaring a global symbol in assembly is tedious, error-prone, and
painful to read. While ENTRY() exists, this is supposed to be used for
function entry points, and this affects alignment in a potentially
undesireable manner.

Instead, let's add a generic GLOBAL() macro for this, as x86 added
locally in commit:

95695547a7db44b8 ("x86: asm linkage - introduce GLOBAL macro")

... thus allowing us to use this more freely in the kernel.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

uapi/linux/types.h -> uapi/linux/posix_types.h -> linux/stddef.h
-> uapi/linux/stddef.h and is needed to provide a proper definition of
offsetof.

Unfortunately, compiler.h requires a definition of
smp_read_barrier_depends() for defining lockless_dereference() and soon
for defining READ_ONCE(), which means that all
users of READ_ONCE() will need to include asm/barrier.h to avoid splats
such as:

In file included from include/uapi/linux/stddef.h:1:0,
from include/linux/stddef.h:4,
from arch/h8300/kernel/asm-offsets.c:11:
include/linux/list.h: In function 'list_empty':
>> include/linux/compiler.h:343:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_read_barrier_depends' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
smp_read_barrier_depends(); /* Enforce dependency ordering from x */ \
^

A better alternative is to include asm/barrier.h in linux/compiler.h,
but this requires a type definition for "bool" on some architectures
(e.g. x86), which is defined later by linux/types.h. Type "bool" is also
used directly in linux/compiler.h, so the whole thing is pretty fragile.

This patch splits compiler.h in two: compiler_types.h contains type
annotations, definitions and the compiler-specific parts, whereas
compiler.h #includes compiler-types.h and additionally defines macros
such as {READ,WRITE.ACCESS}_ONCE().

uapi/linux/stddef.h and linux/linkage.h are then moved over to include
linux/compiler_types.h, which fixes the build for h8 and blackfin.

linkage.h: fix build breakage due to symbol prefix handling

Al's commit e1b5bb6d1236 ("consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS
declarations") broke the build on blackfin and metag due to the
following code:

#ifndef SYMBOL_NAME
#ifdef CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
#define SYMBOL_NAME(x) CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ## x
#else
#define SYMBOL_NAME(x) x
#endif
#endif
#define __SYMBOL_NAME(x) __stringify(SYMBOL_NAME(x))

__stringify literally stringifies CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ##x, so you get
lines like this in kernel/sys_ni.s:

.weak CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl
.set CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl,CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_ni_syscall

The patches in Rusty's modules-next tree such as "CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX:
cleanup." cleans up the whole mess around symbol prefixes, so this patch
just attempts to fix the build in the meantime.

The intermediate definition of SYMBOL_NAME above isn't used and is
incorrect when CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is defined as CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
is a quoted string literal, so define __SYMBOL_NAME directly depending
on CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
