The genksyms source was integrated into the kernel tree in 2003. I do not expect anybody still using the external /sbin/genksyms. Kbuild does not need to provide the ability to override GENKSYMS. Let's remove the GENKSYMS variable, and use the hardcoded path. Since it occurred in the pre-git era, I attached the commit message in case somebody is interested in the historical background. | Author: Kai Germaschewski <kai@tp1.ruhr-uni-bochum.de> | Date: Wed Feb 19 04:17:28 2003 -0600 | | kbuild: [PATCH] put genksyms in scripts dir | | This puts genksyms into scripts/genksyms/. | | genksyms used to be maintained externally, though the only possible user | was the kernel build.

Modern gcc adds view assignments, reset assertion checking in .loc directives and a couple more additional debug markers, which clutters the asm output unnecessarily: For example: bsp_resume: .LFB3466: .loc 1 1868 1 is_stmt 1 view -0 .cfi_startproc .loc 1 1869 2 view .LVU73 # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1869: if (this_cpu->c_bsp_resume) .loc 1 1869 14 is_stmt 0 view .LVU74 movq this_cpu(%rip), %rax # this_cpu, this_cpu movq 64(%rax), %rax # this_cpu.94_1->c_bsp_resume, _2 # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1869: if (this_cpu->c_bsp_resume) .loc 1 1869 5 view .LVU75 testq %rax, %rax # _2 je .L8 #, .loc 1 1870 3 is_stmt 1 view .LVU76 movq $boot_cpu_data, %rdi #, jmp __x86_indirect_thunk_rax or .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU478 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU479 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU480 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU481 .LBB1385: .LBB1383: .LBB1379: .LBB1377: .LBB1375: .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU482 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU483 movl %edi, %edx # cpu, cpu .LVL87: .loc 2 57 9 is_stmt 0 view .LVU484 That MOV in there is drowned in debugging information and latter makes it hard to follow the asm.

In Kbuild, if_changed and friends must have FORCE as a prerequisite. Hence, $(filter-out FORCE,$^) or $(filter-out $(PHONY),$^) is a common idiom to get the names of all the prerequisites except phony targets. Add real-prereqs as a shorthand. Note: We cannot replace $(filter %.o,$^) in cmd_link_multi-m because $^ may include auto-generated dependencies from the .*.cmd file when a single object module is changed into a multi object module. Refer to commit 69ea912f ("kbuild: remove unneeded link_multi_deps"). I added some comment to avoid accidental breakage. Signed-off-by:

GCC 9 reworks the way the references to the stack canary are emitted, to prevent the value from being spilled to the stack before the final comparison in the epilogue, defeating the purpose, given that the spill slot is under control of the attacker that we are protecting ourselves from. Since our canary value address is obtained without accessing memory (as opposed to pre-v7 code that will obtain it from a literal pool), it is unlikely (although not guaranteed) that the compiler will spill the canary value in the same way, so let's just disable this improvement when building with GCC9+.

Some time ago, Sam pointed out a certain degree of overwrap between generic-y and mandatory-y. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/7/10/121 ) I tweaked the meaning of mandatory-y a little bit; now it defines the minimum set of ASM headers that all architectures must have. If arch does not have specific implementation of a mandatory header, Kbuild will let it fallback to the asm-generic one by automatically generating a wrapper. This will allow to drop lots of redundant generic-y defines. Previously, "mandatory" was used in the context of UAPI, but I guess this can be extended to kernel space ASM headers. Suggested-by:

As mentioned in the info pages of gas, the '.align' pseudo op's interpretation of the alignment value is architecture specific. It might either be a byte value or taken to the power of two. On ARM it's actually the latter which leads to unnecessary large alignments of 16 bytes for 32 bit builds or 256 bytes for 64 bit builds. Fix this by switching to '.balign' instead which is consistent across all architectures. Signed-off-by:

The script tests a regular text file (Makefile) for basic sanity checks and then runs it on a binary file (Documentation/logo.gif) to make sure it works in both cases. It also tests opening files passed on the command line as well as piped files read from standard input. Finally a run on the complete tree will be performed to catch any other potential issues.
