Even if there is no call-site in the vmlinux, we need # to keep exported symbols for the use from loadable modules. # # Commit 7f2084fa55e6 ("[kbuild] handle exports in lib-y objects reliably") # worked around it by linking a dummy object, lib-ksyms.o, which contains # references to all the symbols exported from lib.a in that directory. # It uses the linker script command, EXTERN. Unfortunately, the meaning of # EXTERN of ld.lld is different from that of ld.bfd. Therefore, this does # not work with LD=ld.lld (CBL issue #515). # # Anyway, the build rule of lib-ksyms.o is somewhat tricky. So, I want to # get rid of it. # # At first, I was thinking of accumulating lib-y objects into obj-y # (or even replacing lib-y with obj-y entirely), but the lib-y syntax # is used beyond the ordinary use in lib/ and arch/*/lib/. # # Examples: # # - drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/Makefile builds lib.a, which is linked # into vmlinux in the own way (arm64), or linked to the decompressor # (arm, x86). # # - arch/alpha/lib/Makefile builds lib.a which is linked not only to # vmlinux, but also to bootloaders in arch/alpha/boot/Makefile. # # - arch/xtensa/boot/lib/Makefile builds lib.a for use from # arch/xtensa/boot/boot-redboot/Makefile. # # One more thing, adding everything to obj-y would increase the vmlinux # size of allnoconfig (or tinyconfig). # # For less impact, I tweaked the destination of lib.a at the top Makefile; # when CONFIG_MODULES=y, lib.a goes to KBUILD_VMLINUX_OBJS, which is # forcibly linked to vmlinux, otherwise lib.a goes to KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS # as before. # # The size impact for normal usecases is quite small since at lease one # symbol in every lib-y object is eventually called by someone. In case # you are intrested, here are the figures. # # x86_64_defconfig: # # text data bss dec hex filename # 19566602 5422072 1589328 26578002 1958c52 vmlinux.before # 19566932 5422104 1589328 26578364 1958dbc vmlinux.after # # The case with the biggest impact is allnoconfig + CONFIG_MODULES=y. # # ARCH=x86 allnoconfig + CONFIG_MODULES=y: # # text data bss dec hex filename # 1175162 254740 1220608 2650510 28718e vmlinux.before # 1177974 254836 1220608 2653418 287cea vmlinux.after # # Hopefully this is still not a big deal. The per-file trimming with the # static library is not so effective after all. # # If fine-grained optimization is desired, some architectures support # CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, which trims dead code per-symbol # basis. When LTO is supported in mainline, even better optimization will # be possible. # # Link: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/515 # Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada # Reported-by: kbuild test robot # Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 58bb4f7d4970e92c2400208a1b48aae3b2853e5c # < make -s -j 24 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/kbuild_pmac32_defconfig+SMP_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- pmac32_defconfig # Added to kconfig CONFIG_SMP=y # < make -s -j 24 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/kbuild_pmac32_defconfig+SMP_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- help # make -s -j 24 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/kbuild_pmac32_defconfig+SMP_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- olddefconfig .config:4079:warning: override: reassigning to symbol SMP # make -s -j 24 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/kbuild_pmac32_defconfig+SMP_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- In file included from /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/pmac.h:12:0, from /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/awacs.c:16: /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/awacs.c: In function 'snd_pmac_awacs_init': /kisskb/src/include/sound/control.h:218:9: warning: 'speaker_vol' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] return _snd_ctl_add_slave(master, slave, 0); ^ /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/awacs.c:873:36: note: 'speaker_vol' was declared here struct snd_kcontrol *master_vol, *speaker_vol; ^ ERROR: modpost: "sysrq_mask" [drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.ko] undefined! make[2]: *** [/kisskb/src/scripts/Makefile.modpost:94: __modpost] Error 1 make[1]: *** [/kisskb/src/Makefile:1302: modules] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
