<title>kbuild: remove --include-dir MAKEFLAG from top Makefile</title>

<id>67d7c3023a672c2b73d19d6d23684df670fce648</id>
<content type='text'>
I added $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles in the following commits:

 - 3204a7fb98a3 ("kbuild: prefix $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles")
 - d82856395505 ("kbuild: do not require sub-make for separate output tree builds")

They were a preparation for removing --include-dir flag.

I have never thought --include-dir useful. Rather, it _is_ harmful.

For example, run the following commands:

  $ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
  $ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
  make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
    HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
  Error: kernelrelease not valid - run 'make prepare' to update it
    UPD     include/config/kernel.release
  make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/linux/foo'

The first command configures the source tree for x86. The next command
tries to build ARM device trees in the separate foo/ directory - this
must stop because the directory foo/ has not been configured yet.

However, due to --include-dir=$(abs_srctree), the top Makefile includes
the wrong include/config/auto.conf from the source tree and continues
building. Kbuild traverses the directory tree, but of course it does
not work correctly. The Error message is also pointless - 'make prepare'
does not help at all for fixing the issue.

This commit fixes more arch Makefile, and finally removes --include-dir
from the top Makefile.

There are more breakages under drivers/, but I do not volunteer to fix
them all. I just moved --include-dir to drivers/Makefile.

With this commit, the second command will stop with a sensible message.

  $ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
  $ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
  make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
    SYNC    include/config/auto.conf.cmd
  ***
  *** The source tree is not clean, please run 'make ARCH=arm mrproper'
  *** in /tmp/linux
  ***
  make[2]: *** [../Makefile:646: outputmakefile] Error 1
  /tmp/linux/Makefile:770: include/config/auto.conf.cmd: No such file or directory
  make[1]: *** [/tmp/linux/Makefile:793: include/config/auto.conf.cmd] Error 2
  make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
  make: *** [Makefile:226: __sub-make] Error 2

<title>um: seed rng using host OS rng</title>

UML generally does not provide access to special CPU instructions like
RDRAND, and execution tends to be rather deterministic, with no real
hardware interrupts, making good randomness really very hard, if not
all together impossible. Not only is this a security eyebrow raiser, but
it's also quite annoying when trying to do various pieces of UML-based
automation that takes a long time to boot, if ever.

Fix this by trivially calling getrandom() in the host and using that
seed as "bootloader randomness", which initializes the rng immediately
at UML boot.

The old behavior can be restored the same way as on any other arch, by
way of CONFIG_TRUST_BOOTLOADER_RANDOMNESS=n or
random.trust_bootloader=0. So seen from that perspective, this just
makes UML act like other archs, which is positive in its own right.

Additionally, wire up arch_get_random_{int,long}() in the same way, so
that reseeds can also make use of the host RNG, controllable by
CONFIG_TRUST_CPU_RANDOMNESS and random.trust_cpu, per usual.

to_virt() and to_phys() are very generic and may be defined by drivers.
As it turns out, commit 9409c9b6709e ("pmem: refactor pmem_clear_poison()")
did exactly that. This results in build errors such as the following
when trying to build um:allmodconfig.

drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c: In function ‘pmem_dax_zero_page_range’:
./arch/um/include/asm/page.h:105:20: error:

  105 | #define __pa(virt) to_phys((void *) (unsigned long) (virt))
      |                    ^~~~~~~

Use less generic function names for the um specific to_phys() and to_virt()
functions to fix the problem and to avoid similar problems in the future.

QEMU has a -no-reboot option, which halts instead of reboots when the
guest asks to reboot. This is invaluable when used with
CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT=-1 (and panic_on_warn), because it allows panics
and warnings to be caught immediately in CI. Implement this in UML too,
by way of a basic setup param.

Make KASAN run on User Mode Linux on x86_64.

The UML-specific KASAN initializer uses mmap to map the ~16TB of shadow
memory to the location defined by KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET.  kasan_init()
utilizes constructors to initialize KASAN before main().

The location of the KASAN shadow memory, starting at
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET, can be configured using the KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET
option. The default location of this offset is 0x100000000000, which
keeps it out-of-the-way even on UML setups with more "physical" memory.

For low-memory setups, 0x7fff8000 can be used instead, which fits in an
immediate and is therefore faster, as suggested by Dmitry Vyukov. There
is usually enough free space at this location; however, it is a config
option so that it can be easily changed if needed.

Note that, unlike KASAN on other architectures, vmalloc allocations
still use the shadow memory allocated upfront, rather than allocating
and free-ing it per-vmalloc allocation.

If another architecture chooses to go down the same path, we should
replace the checks for CONFIG_UML with something more generic, such
as:
- A CONFIG_KASAN_NO_SHADOW_ALLOC option, which architectures could set
- or, a way of having architecture-specific versions of these vmalloc
  and module shadow memory allocation options.

Also note that, while UML supports both KASAN in inline mode
(CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE) and static linking (CONFIG_STATIC_LINK), it does
not support both at the same time.
