commit 0a6de78cff600cb991f2a1b7ed376935871796a0 upstream.

When building with a RISC-V kernel with DWARF5 debug info using clang
and the GNU assembler, several instances of the following error appear:

  /tmp/vgettimeofday-48aa35.s:2963: Error: non-constant .uleb128 is not supported

Dumping the .s file reveals these .uleb128 directives come from
.debug_loc and .debug_ranges:

  .Ldebug_loc0:
          .byte   4                               # DW_LLE_offset_pair
          .uleb128 .Lfunc_begin0-.Lfunc_begin0    #   starting offset
          .uleb128 .Ltmp1-.Lfunc_begin0           #   ending offset
          .byte   1                               # Loc expr size
          .byte   90                              # DW_OP_reg10
          .byte   0                               # DW_LLE_end_of_list

  .Ldebug_ranges0:
          .byte   4                               # DW_RLE_offset_pair
          .uleb128 .Ltmp6-.Lfunc_begin0           #   starting offset
          .uleb128 .Ltmp27-.Lfunc_begin0          #   ending offset
          .byte   4                               # DW_RLE_offset_pair
          .uleb128 .Ltmp28-.Lfunc_begin0          #   starting offset
          .uleb128 .Ltmp30-.Lfunc_begin0          #   ending offset
          .byte   0                               # DW_RLE_end_of_list

There is an outstanding binutils issue to support a non-constant operand
to .sleb128 and .uleb128 in GAS for RISC-V but there does not appear to
be any movement on it, due to concerns over how it would work with
linker relaxation.

To avoid these build errors, prevent DWARF5 from being selected when
using clang and an assembler that does not have support for these symbol
deltas, which can be easily checked in Kconfig with as-instr plus the
small test program from the dwz test suite from the binutils issue.

<title>Kconfig.debug: add toolchain checks for DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a2f91e15ceafa1dff3aa458fdc49900ddfc343fc</id>
<content type='text'>
commit bb1435f3f575b5213eaf27434efa3971f51c01de upstream.

CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT does not give explicit
-gdwarf-* flag. The actual DWARF version is up to the toolchain.

The combination of GCC and GAS works fine, and Clang with the integrated
assembler is good too.

The combination of Clang and GAS is tricky, but at least, the -g flag
works for Clang &lt;=13, which defaults to DWARF v4.

Clang 14 switched its default to DWARF v5.

Now, CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT has the same issue as
addressed by commit 98cd6f521f10 ("Kconfig: allow explicit opt in to
DWARF v5").

CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT=y for Clang &gt;= 14 and
GAS &lt; 2.35 produces a ton of errors like follows:

  /tmp/main-c2741c.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/main-c2741c.s:109: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `"'
  /tmp/main-c2741c.s:109: Error: file number less than one

Add 'depends on' to check toolchains.

commit 4f001a21080ff2e2f0e1c3692f5e119aedbb3bc1 upstream.

Commit c0a5c81ca9be ("Kconfig.debug: drop GCC 5+ version check for
DWARF5") could have cleaned up the code a bit more.

"CC_IS_CLANG &amp;&amp;" is unneeded. No functional change is intended.

[ Upstream commit 32ef9e5054ec0321b9336058c58ec749e9c6b0fe ]

Alexey reported that the fraction of unknown filename instances in
kallsyms grew from ~0.3% to ~10% recently; Bill and Greg tracked it down
to assembler defined symbols, which regressed as a result of:

commit b8a9092330da ("Kbuild: do not emit debug info for assembly with LLVM_IAS=1")

In that commit, I allude to restoring debug info for assembler defined
symbols in a follow up patch, but it seems I forgot to do so in

commit a66049e2cf0e ("Kbuild: make DWARF version a choice")

Pull cxl updates from Dan Williams:
 "Compute Express Link (CXL) updates for this cycle.

  The highlight is new driver-core infrastructure and CXL subsystem
  changes for allowing lockdep to validate device_lock() usage. Thanks
  to PeterZ for setting me straight on the current capabilities of the
  lockdep API, and Greg acked it as well.

  On the CXL ACPI side this update adds support for CXL _OSC so that
  platform firmware knows that it is safe to still grant Linux native
  control of PCIe hotplug and error handling in the presence of CXL
  devices. A circular dependency problem was discovered between suspend
  and CXL memory for cases where the suspend image might be stored in
  CXL memory where that image also contains the PCI register state to
  restore to re-enable the device. Disable suspend for now until an
  architecture is defined to clarify that conflict.

  Lastly a collection of reworks, fixes, and cleanups to the CXL
  subsystem where support for snooping mailbox commands and properly
  handling the "mem_enable" flow are the highlights.

  Summary:

   - Add driver-core infrastructure for lockdep validation of
     device_lock(), and fixup a deadlock report that was previously
     hidden behind the 'lockdep no validate' policy.

   - Add CXL _OSC support for claiming native control of CXL hotplug and
     error handling.

   - Disable suspend in the presence of CXL memory unless and until a
     protocol is identified for restoring PCI device context from memory
     hosted on CXL PCI devices.

   - Add support for snooping CXL mailbox commands to protect against
     inopportune changes, like set-partition with the 'immediate' flag
     set.

   - Rework how the driver detects legacy CXL 1.1 configurations (CXL
     DVSEC / 'mem_enable') before enabling new CXL 2.0 decode
     configurations (CXL HDM Capability).

   - Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes from -next exposure"

options to the MM section") and 519bcb797907 ("mm: Kconfig: group swap,
slab, hotplug and thp options into submenus") we now have nicely organized
mm related config options.  I have noticed some that were still misplaced,
so this moves them from various places into the new structure:

VM_EVENT_COUNTERS, COMPAT_BRK, MMAP_ALLOW_UNINITIALIZED to mm/Kconfig and
general MM section.

SLUB_STATS to mm/Kconfig and the slab submenu.

DEBUG_SLAB, SLUB_DEBUG, SLUB_DEBUG_ON to mm/Kconfig.debug and the Kernel
hacking / Memory Debugging submenu.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - Conversion of slub_debug stack traces to stackdepot, allowing more
   useful debugfs-based inspection for e.g. memory leak debugging.
   Allocation and free debugfs info now includes full traces and is
   sorted by the unique trace frequency.

   The stackdepot conversion was already attempted last year but
   reverted by ae14c63a9f20. The memory overhead (while not actually
   enabled on boot) has been meanwhile solved by making the large
   stackdepot allocation dynamic. The xfstest issues haven't been
   reproduced on current kernel locally nor in -next, so the slab cache
   layout changes that originally made that bug manifest were probably
   not the root cause.

 - Refactoring of dma-kmalloc caches creation.

 - Trivial cleanups such as removal of unused parameters, fixes and
   clarifications of comments.

 - Hyeonggon Yoo joins as a reviewer.
