#1443984 — linux-next: build failure after merge of the luto-misc tree

FromStephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
Date2016-07-15 09:10 +0200
Subjectlinux-next: build failure after merge of the luto-misc tree
Message-ID<rV5q2-3U6-57@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi Andy,

After merging the luto-misc tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

In file included from arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/bitsperlong.h:10:0,
                 from include/uapi/asm-generic/int-ll64.h:11,
                 from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h:6,  
                 from arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/types.h:4,
                 from tools/include/linux/types.h:9,
                 from include/uapi/linux/elf.h:4,
                 from arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso2c.c:66:
tools/include/asm-generic/bitsperlong.h:32:2: error: #error Inconsistent word size. Check asm/bitsperlong.h
 #error Inconsistent word size. Check asm/bitsperlong.h
  ^

Caused by commit

  6436d4c1a83c ("x86/vdso: Fail the build if the vdso image has no dynamic section")

interacting with commit

  2a00f026a15d ("tools: Fix up BITS_PER_LONG setting")

from the tip tree.

I am not sure why 6436d4c1a83c does this ... maybe it just causes
arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso2c.c to be rebuilt?

I applied this partial revert of the latter commit:

Yuck.. that thing is horrid :/

What's wrong with so?

And if you really want to retain CONFIG_64BIT (because other headers
might want it, and they currently do not) then do something like:

#ifdef __LP64__
#define CONFIG_64BIT
#else
#define CONFIG_32BIT
#endif

All GCC versions I checked have __CHAR_BIT__ and __SIZEOF_LONG__.

(and I checked most everything from 4.4 - 6.1)

clang-3.8 also defines all three of those, and I don't consider that a
usable compiler as it doesn't even build a kernel.

I was trying to have that file as close to the kernel as possible, but
I'll try building with your patch in my test rig, lets see if one of the
dozens of distros/releases barf at that...

Seems ok, but I'll reinstate this:

#if BITS_PER_LONG != __BITS_PER_LONG
#error Inconsistent word size. Check asm/bitsperlong.h
#endif

And now I'm rerunning these tests, that without the above check
produces:

# dm
alpine:3.4: Ok
android-ndk:r12b: Ok
centos:5: perf: Ok, objtool: FAIL   # But this one predates this patch, I'll fix it
centos:6: Ok
centos:7: Ok
debian:7: Ok
debian:8: Ok
debian:experimental: Ok
fedora:21: Ok
fedora:22: Ok

Confuses me; why do we have two?

Why not then do:

#define BITS_PER_LONG __BITS_PER_LONG

and be done with it?

Well, I just kept existing kernel practice, it uses __BITS_PER_LONG in
uapi files and BITS_PER_LONG elsewhere, since we copy stuff from the
kernel and check when it drifts using diff, I kept it like that so that
automation could point us when the tools/ copy drifted from the original
file.

Sure. Although I'm still somewhat puzzled by the duplicated effort of
__BITS_PER_LONG and BITS_PER_LONG.

If you ever do need to introduce CONFIG_64BIT, __LP64__ seems like the
right symbol to use for it.

Well, I also can't think of something to justify that, would have to dig
deeper to figure out why that duplication was introduced.

Thanks, will queue this one up and be done with it. For the moment. :-)

Sorry, no.  See my other email.

I wonder if something's wrong with the way that hostprogs-y works if
the program includes kernel headers.

It's plausible that something like this:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/commit/?h=x86/vdso&id=424eb7848324efbfcffaf58b142db1a455a9628b

coupled with a change to make vdso2c or, more generally, hostprogs-y
use USERINCLUDE would help.

For me to try to reproduce the problem, yes, what is the environment?
Cross-compiling to what target?

There are still files outside tools/ that are being accessed by it, so,
yeah, this may have affected it, I'll try to do a final sweep untangling
this.

I am using a x86_64 compiler (target) on powerpc64le (host).
Yesterday, the x86_64 allmodconfig build failed just after I merged the
tip tree (i.e. without the luto-misc tree being involved).  At that
point I have merged quite a few trees, though.  Also, I do not clean my
object tree between builds.  The compiler is v5.2.0 built from upstream
sources.

Ok, one of the possible reasons was for tools/{include,lib,perf,objtool}
code to be including code directly from the kernel, and that was still
the case for some headers, I fixed those and pushed to Ingo now, if he
pulls lets see if this fixes things.

If you have a single patch (or few) relative to yesterday's tip tree,
please send it to me as well and I will apply it as a fix patch if Ingo
doesn't get to pulling in time.

OK, I added this to linux-next today (as a temporary measure), but it
fails the same way.  To be clear, I merged the above branch (without
the rest of the tip tree) and it fails the same way. :-(

It produces these errors (from the x86_64 allmodconfig build):
