v2 cover x86: remove always-defined CONFIG_AS_* options

arch/x86/Makefile tests instruction code by $(call as-instr, ...)

Some of them are very old.
For example, the check for CONFIG_AS_CFI dates back to 2006.

We raise GCC versions from time to time, and we clean old code away. The same policy applied to binutils.

The current minimal supported version of binutils is 2.21

This is new enough to recognize the instruction in most of as-instr calls.

If this series looks good, how to merge it?
Via x86 tree or maybe crypto ?

Changes in v2:
- New patch
- Remove CFI_SIGNAL_FRAME entirely (per Nick)
- add ifdef CONFIG_X86 to fix build errors on non-x86 arches

Masahiro Yamada (9):
lib/raid6/test: fix build on distros whose /bin/sh is not bash

PATCH v2 1/9 lib/raid6/test: fix build on distros whose /bin/sh is not bash

You can test raid6 library code from user-space, like this:

  $ cd lib/raid6/test
  $ make

The command in $(shell ...) function is evaluated by /bin/sh by default. (or, you can change the default shell by setting 'SHELL' in Makefile)

Currently '>&/dev/null' is used to sink both stdout and stderr. Because this code is bash-ism, it only works when /bin/sh is a symbolic link to bash (this is the case on RHEL etc.)

This does not work on Ubuntu where /bin/sh is a symbolic link to dash.

I see lots of

/bin/sh: 1: Syntax error: Bad fd number

and

warning "your version of binutils lacks ... support"

Replace it with portable '>/dev/null 2>&1'.

Fixes 4f8c55c5ad49 ("lib/raid6: build proper files on corresponding arch")

PATCH v2 2/9 x86: remove unneeded defined(__ASSEMBLY__) check from asm/dwarf2.h

In reply to Masahiro Yamada

This header file has the following check at the top:

  #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__
  #warning "asm/dwarf2.h should be only included in pure assembly files"
  #endif

So, we expect defined(__ASSEMBLY__) is always true.

PATCH v2 3/9 x86: remove always-defined CONFIG_AS_CFI

In reply to Masahiro Yamada

CONFIG_AS_CFI was introduced by commit e2414910f212 ("[PATCH] x86:
Detect CFI support in the assembler at runtime"), and extended by commit f0f12d85af85 ("x86_64: Check for .cfi_rel_offset in CFI probe").

We raise the minimal supported binutils version from time to time. The last bump was commit 1fb12b35e5ff ("kbuild: Raise the minimum required binutils version to 2.21").

I confirmed the code in $(call as-instr,...) can be assembled by the binutils 2.21 assembler and also by LLVM integrated assembler.

Remove CONFIG_AS_CFI, which is always defined.

---

If this series is applied,
I can hard-code the assembler code, and delete CFI_* macros entirely.

PATCH v2 6/9 x86: remove always-defined CONFIG_AS_SSSE3

In reply to Masahiro Yamada

CONFIG_AS_SSSE3 was introduced by commit 75aaf4c3e6a4 ("x86/raid6:
correctly check for assembler capabilities").

We raise the minimal supported binutils version from time to time. The last bump was commit 1fb12b35e5ff ("kbuild: Raise the minimum required binutils version to 2.21").

I confirmed the code in $(call as-instr,...) can be assembled by the binutils 2.21 assembler and also by LLVM integrated assembler.

Remove CONFIG_AS_SSSE3, which is always defined.

I added ifdef CONFIG_X86 to lib/raid6/algos.c to avoid link errors on non-x86 architectures.

lib/raid6/algos.c is built not only for the kernel but also for testing the library code from userspace. I added -DCONFIG_X86 to lib/raid6/test/Makefile to cator to this usecase.

PATCH v2 7/9 x86: remove always-defined CONFIG_AS_AVX

In reply to Masahiro Yamada

CONFIG_AS_AVX was introduced by commit ea4d26ae24e5 ("raid5: add AVX optimized RAID5 checksumming").

We raise the minimal supported binutils version from time to time. The last bump was commit 1fb12b35e5ff ("kbuild: Raise the minimum required binutils version to 2.21").

I confirmed the code in $(call as-instr,...) can be assembled by the binutils 2.21 assembler and also by LLVM integrated assembler.

Remove CONFIG_AS_AVX, which is always defined.

---

Changes in v2: None

PATCH v2 8/9 x86: add comments about the binutils version to support code in as-instr

In reply to Masahiro Yamada

We raise the minimal supported binutils version from time to time. The last bump was commit 1fb12b35e5ff ("kbuild: Raise the minimum required binutils version to 2.21").

We need to keep these as-instr checks because binutils 2.21 does not support them.

I hope this will be a good hint which one can be dropped when we bump the minimal binutils version next time.

As for the Clang/LLVM builds, we require very new LLVM version, so the LLVM integrated assembler supports all of them.

PATCH v2 9/9 x86: replace arch macros from compiler with CONFIG_X86_{32,64}

In reply to Masahiro Yamada

If the intention is to check i386/x86_64 excluding UML, checking CONFIG_X86_{32,64} is simpler.

The reason for checking __i386__ / __x86_64__ was perhaps because lib/raid6/algos.c is built not only for the kernel but also for testing the library code from userspace.

However, lib/raid6/test/Makefile passes -DCONFIG_X86_{32,64} for this case. So, I do not see a reason to not use CONFIG option here.

arch/x86/Makefile tests instruction code by $(call as-instr, ...)

Some of them are very old.
For example, the check for CONFIG_AS_CFI dates back to 2006.

We raise GCC versions from time to time, and we clean old code away. The same policy applied to binutils.

Quoted 7 lines

The current minimal supported version of binutils is 2.21

This is new enough to recognize the instruction in most of as-instr calls.

If this series looks good, how to merge it?
Via x86 tree or maybe crypto ?

This series looks fine, but why is it still incomplete? That is, it's missing your drm commit plus the 4 I layered on top for moving to a Kconfig-based approach and accounting for the bump to binutils 2.23. Everything is now rebased here:
https://git.zx2c4.com/linux-dev/log/?h=jd/kconfig-assembler-support

Would you be up for resubmitting those all together so we can handle this in one go?

The drm one was independent of the others, so I just sent it to drm ML separately.

As for your 4, I just thought you would send a fixed version.

But, folding everything in a series will clarify the patch dependency.
OK, I will do it.
Who/which ML should I send it to?

Great, thanks. The ones in that branch now are ready to go, so grab them out of there.

This seems to make sense, IMHO, for x86 or just as a pull to Linus (i.e. the "kbuild mailing list", in which case, you'd send a pull from your tree).
