scall is a deprecated alias for ecall. ecall is used in several places,
so there is no assembler compatibility concern.

<title>RISC-V: Add hwprobe vDSO function and data</title>

<content type='text'>
Add a vDSO function __vdso_riscv_hwprobe, which can sit in front of the
riscv_hwprobe syscall and answer common queries. We stash a copy of
static answers for the "all CPUs" case in the vDSO data page. This data
is private to the vDSO, so we can decide later to change what's stored
there or under what conditions we defer to the syscall. Currently all
data can be discovered at boot, so the vDSO function answers all queries
when the cpumask is set to the "all CPUs" hint.

There's also a boolean in the data that lets the vDSO function know that
all CPUs are the same. In that case, the vDSO will also answer queries
for arbitrary CPU masks in addition to the "all CPUs" hint.

<title>vdso: Improve cmd_vdso_check to check all dynamic relocations</title>

<id>aff69273af61f5d1c8fb401d6f19148d11629b41</id>
<content type='text'>
The actual intention is that no dynamic relocation exists in the VDSO. For
this the VDSO build validates that the resulting .so file does not have any
relocations which are specified via $(ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS) per architecture,
which is fragile as e.g. ARM64 lacks an entry for R_AARCH64_RELATIVE. Aside
of that ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS is a misnomer as it checks for relative
relocations too.

However, some GNU ld ports produce unneeded R_*_NONE relocation entries. If
a port fails to determine the exact .rel[a].dyn size, the trailing zeros
become R_*_NONE relocations. E.g. ld's powerpc port recently fixed
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29540). R_*_NONE are
generally a no-op in the dynamic loaders. So just ignore them.

Remove the ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS defines and just validate that the resulting
.so file does not contain any R_* relocation entries except R_*_NONE.

lkp reported a build error, I tried the config and can reproduce
build error as below:

  VDSOLD  arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg
ld.lld: error: section .note file range overlaps with .text
&gt;&gt;&gt; .note range is [0x7C8, 0x803]
&gt;&gt;&gt; .text range is [0x800, 0x1993]

ld.lld: error: section .text file range overlaps with .dynamic
&gt;&gt;&gt; .text range is [0x800, 0x1993]
&gt;&gt;&gt; .dynamic range is [0x808, 0x937]

ld.lld: error: section .note virtual address range overlaps with .text
&gt;&gt;&gt; .note range is [0x7C8, 0x803]
&gt;&gt;&gt; .text range is [0x800, 0x1993]

Fix it by setting DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING which will disable branch
tracing for vdso, thus avoid useless _ftrace_annotated_branch section
and _ftrace_branch section. Although we can also fix it by removing
the hardcoded .text begin address, but I think that's another story
and should be put into another patch.

Recently, ld.lld moved from '--undefined-version' to
'--no-undefined-version' as the default, which breaks the compat vDSO
build:

  ld.lld: error: version script assignment of 'LINUX_4.15' to symbol '__vdso_gettimeofday' failed: symbol not defined
  ld.lld: error: version script assignment of 'LINUX_4.15' to symbol '__vdso_clock_gettime' failed: symbol not defined
  ld.lld: error: version script assignment of 'LINUX_4.15' to symbol '__vdso_clock_getres' failed: symbol not defined

These symbols are not present in the compat vDSO or the regular vDSO for
32-bit but they are unconditionally included in the version section of
the linker script, which is prohibited with '--no-undefined-version'.

Fix this issue by only including the symbols that are actually exported
in the version section of the linker script.

Even after commit 89fd4a1df829 ("riscv: jump_label: mark arguments as
const to satisfy asm constraints"), building with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
+ LLVM=1 can reproduce below build error:

                ^
1 error generated.

I think the problem is when "-Os" is passed as CFLAGS, it's removed by
"CFLAGS_REMOVE_vgettimeofday.o = $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) -Os" which is
introduced in commit e05d57dcb8c7 ("riscv: Fixup __vdso_gettimeofday
broke dynamic ftrace"), thus no optimization at all for vgettimeofday.c
arm64 does remove "-Os" as well, but it forces "-O2" after removing
"-Os".

I compared the generated vgettimeofday.o with "-O2" and "-Os",
I think no big performance difference. So let's tell the kbuild not
to remove "-Os" rather than follow arm64 style.

vdso related performance can be improved a lot when building kernel with
CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE after this commit, ("-Os" VS no optimization)

1 error generated.

I think the problem is when "-Os" is passed as CFLAGS, it's removed by
"CFLAGS_REMOVE_vgettimeofday.o = $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) -Os" which is
introduced in commit e05d57dcb8c7 ("riscv: Fixup __vdso_gettimeofday
broke dynamic ftrace"), thus no optimization at all for vgettimeofday.c
arm64 does remove "-Os" as well, but it forces "-O2" after removing
"-Os".

I compared the generated vgettimeofday.o with "-O2" and "-Os",
I think no big performance difference. So let's tell the kbuild not
to remove "-Os" rather than follow arm64 style.

vdso related performance can be improved a lot when building kernel with
CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE after this commit, ("-Os" VS no optimization)

Fixes: e05d57dcb8c7 ("riscv: Fixup __vdso_gettimeofday broke dynamic ftrace")

There is no vgettimeofday supported in rv32 that makes simple to
generate rv32 vdso code which only needs riscv64 compiler. Other
architectures need change compiler or -m (machine parameter) to
support vdso32 compiling. If rv32 support vgettimeofday (which
cause C compile) in future, we would add CROSS_COMPILE to support
that makes more requirement on compiler enviornment.

Finally, reuse all *.S from vdso in compat_vdso that makes
implementation clear and readable.

<title>riscv/vdso: Add support for time namespaces</title>

Implement generic vdso time namespace support which also enables time
namespaces for riscv. This is quite similar to what arm64 does.

selftest/timens test result:
  1..10
  ok 1 Passed for CLOCK_BOOTTIME (syscall)
  ok 2 Passed for CLOCK_BOOTTIME (vdso)
  ok 3 # SKIP CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM isn't supported
  ok 4 # SKIP CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM isn't supported
  ok 5 Passed for CLOCK_MONOTONIC (syscall)
  ok 6 Passed for CLOCK_MONOTONIC (vdso)
  ok 7 Passed for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE (syscall)
  ok 8 Passed for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE (vdso)
  ok 9 Passed for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW (syscall)
  ok 10 Passed for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW (vdso)
  # Totals: pass:8 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:2 error:0
