Commit 86cdd2fdc4 ("kheaders: make headers archive reproducible")
introduced a number of options specific to GNU tar to the `tar`
invocation in `gen_kheaders.sh` script. This causes the script to fail
to work on systems where `tar` is not GNU tar. This can occur e.g.
on recent Gentoo Linux installations that support using bsdtar from
libarchive instead.
Add a `TAR` make variable to make it possible to override the tar
executable used, e.g. by specifying:
make TAR=gtar

This problem is similar to commit 7f8256ae0e ("initramfs: Encode
dependency on KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP"): kernel/gen_kheaders.sh has an
internal dependency on KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP that is not exposed to
make, so changing KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP will not trigger a rebuild
of the archive.
Move $(KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP) to the Makefile so that is is recorded
in the *.cmd file.

When a header file is changed, kernel/gen_kheaders.sh may fail to update
kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz.
[steps to reproduce]
[1] Build kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
$ make -j$(nproc) kernel/kheaders.o
DESCEND objtool
INSTALL libsubcmd_headers
CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
CHK kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
GEN kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
CC kernel/kheaders.o
[2] Modify a header without changing the file size
$ sed -i s/0xdeadbeef/0xfeedbeef/ include/linux/elfnote.h
[3] Rebuild kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
$ make -j$(nproc) kernel/kheaders.o
DESCEND objtool
INSTALL libsubcmd_headers
CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
CHK kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz is not updated if steps [1] - [3] are run
within the same minute.
The headers_md5 variable stores the MD5 hash of the 'ls -l' output
for all header files. This hash value is used to determine whether
kheaders_data.tar.xz needs to be rebuilt. However, 'ls -l' prints the
modification times with minute-level granularity. If a file is modified
within the same minute and its size remains the same, the MD5 hash does
not change.
To reliably detect file modifications, this commit rewrites
kernel/gen_kheaders.sh to output header dependencies to
kernel/.kheaders_data.tar.xz.cmd. Then, Make compares the timestamps
and reruns kernel/gen_kheaders.sh when necessary. This is the standard
mechanism used by Make and Kbuild.

This reverts commit 973b710b88.
As I mentioned in the review [1], I do not believe this was the correct
fix.
Commit 41a0005128 ("kheaders: prevent `find` from seeing perl temp
files") addressed the root cause of the issue. I asked David to test
it but received no response.
Commit 973b710b88 ("kheaders: Ignore silly-rename files") merely
worked around the issue by excluding such files, rather than preventing
their creation.
I have reverted the latter commit, hoping the issue has already been
resolved by the former. If the silly-rename files come back, I will
restore this change (or preferably, investigate the root cause).

Symptom:
The command
find ... | xargs ... perl -i
occasionally triggers error messages like the following, with the build
still succeeding:
Can't open <redacted>/kernel/.tmp_dir/include/dt-bindings/clock/XXNX4nW9: No such file or directory.
Analysis:
With strace, the root cause has been identified to be `perl -i` creating
temporary files inside ${tmpdir}, which causes `find` to see the
temporary files and emit the names. `find` is likely implemented with
readdir. POSIX `readdir` says:
If a file is removed from or added to the directory after the most
recent call to opendir() or rewinddir(), whether a subsequent call
to readdir() returns an entry for that file is unspecified.
So if the libc that `find` links against choose to return that entry
in readdir(), a possible sequence of events is the following:
1. find emits foo.h
2. xargs executes `perl -i foo.h`
3. perl (pid=100) creates temporary file `XXXXXXXX`
4. find sees file `XXXXXXXX` and emit it
5. PID 100 exits, cleaning up the temporary file `XXXXXXXX`
6. xargs executes `perl -i XXXXXXXX`
7. perl (pid=200) tries to read the file, but it doesn't exist any more.
... triggering the error message.
One can reproduce the bug with the following command (assuming PWD
contains the list of headers in kheaders.tar.xz)
for i in $(seq 100); do
find -type f -print0 |
xargs -0 -P8 -n1 perl -pi -e 'BEGIN {undef $/;}; s/\/\*((?!SPDX).)*?\*\///smg;';
done
With a `find` linking against musl libc, the error message is emitted
6/100 times.
The fix:
This change stores the results of `find` before feeding them into xargs.
find and xargs will no longer be able to see temporary files that perl
creates after this change.

The 'cpio' command is used solely for copying header files to the
temporary directory. However, there is no strong reason to use 'cpio'
for this purpose. For example, scripts/package/install-extmod-build
uses the 'tar' command to copy files.
This commit replaces the use of 'cpio' with 'tar' because 'tar' is
already used in this script to generate kheaders_data.tar.xz anyway.
Performance-wide, there is no significant difference between 'cpio'
and 'tar'.

CONFIG_IKHEADERS has a reproducibility issue because the contents of
kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz can vary depending on how you build the
kernel.
If you build the kernel with CONFIG_IKHEADERS enabled from a pristine
state, the tarball does not include include/generated/utsversion.h.
$ make -s mrproper
$ make -s defconfig
$ scripts/config -e CONFIG_IKHEADERS
$ make -s
$ tar Jtf kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz | grep utsversion
However, if you build the kernel with CONFIG_IKHEADERS disabled first
and then enable it later, the tarball does include
include/generated/utsversion.h.
$ make -s mrproper
$ make -s defconfig
$ make -s
$ scripts/config -e CONFIG_IKHEADERS
$ make -s
$ tar Jtf kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz | grep utsversion
./include/generated/utsversion.h
It is not predictable whether a stale include/generated/utsversion.h
remains when kheaders_data.tar.xz is generated.
For better reproducibility, include/generated/utsversions.h should
always be omitted. It is not necessary for the kheaders anyway.

Tell tar to ignore silly-rename files (".__afs*" and ".nfs*") when building
the header archive. These occur when a file that is open is unlinked
locally, but hasn't yet been closed. Such files are visible to the user
via the getdents() syscall and so programs may want to do things with them.
During the kernel build, such files may be made during the processing of
header files and the cleanup may get deferred by fput() which may result in
tar seeing these files when it reads the directory, but they may have
disappeared by the time it tries to open them, causing tar to fail with an
error. Further, we don't want to include them in the tarball if they still
exist.
With CONFIG_HEADERS_INSTALL=y, something like the following may be seen:
find: './kernel/.tmp_cpio_dir/include/dt-bindings/reset/.__afs2080': No such file or directory
tar: ./include/linux/greybus/.__afs3C95: File removed before we read it
The find warning doesn't seem to cause a problem.
Fix this by telling tar when called from in gen_kheaders.sh to exclude such
files. This only affects afs and nfs; cifs uses the Windows Hidden
attribute to prevent the file from being seen.

Commit 13e1df0928 ("kheaders: explicitly validate existence of cpio
command") added an explicit check for `cpio` using `type`.
However, `type` in `dash` (which is used in some popular distributions
and base images as the shell script runner) prints the missing message
to standard output, and thus no error is printed:
$ bash -c 'type missing >/dev/null'
bash: line 1: type: missing: not found
$ dash -c 'type missing >/dev/null'
$
For instance, this issue may be seen by loongarch builders, given its
defconfig enables CONFIG_IKHEADERS since commit 9cc1df421f ("LoongArch:
Update Loongson-3 default config file").
Therefore, use `command -v` instead to have consistent behavior, and
take the chance to provide a more explicit error.

resulting in indeterministic file modes for the files contained in

readable. Archive the files explicitly with 744,a+X to improve

--mode=0444 is not suitable as directories need to be executable. Also,

Kbuild builds init/built-in.a twice; first during the ordinary
directory descending, second from scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.
We do this because UTS_VERSION contains the build version and the
timestamp. We cannot update it during the normal directory traversal
since we do not yet know if we need to update vmlinux. UTS_VERSION is
temporarily calculated, but omitted from the update check. Otherwise,
vmlinux would be rebuilt every time.
When Kbuild results in running link-vmlinux.sh, it increments the
version number in the .version file and takes the timestamp at that
time to really fix UTS_VERSION.
However, updating the same file twice is a footgun. To avoid nasty
timestamp issues, all build artifacts that depend on init/built-in.a
are atomically generated in link-vmlinux.sh, where some of them do not
need rebuilding.
To fix this issue, this commit changes as follows:
[1] Split UTS_VERSION out to include/generated/utsversion.h from
include/generated/compile.h
include/generated/utsversion.h is generated just before the
vmlinux link. It is generated under include/generated/ because
some decompressors (s390, x86) use UTS_VERSION.
[2] Split init_uts_ns and linux_banner out to init/version-timestamp.c
from init/version.c
init_uts_ns and linux_banner contain UTS_VERSION. During the ordinary
directory descending, they are compiled with __weak and used to
determine if vmlinux needs relinking. Just before the vmlinux link,
they are compiled without __weak to embed the real version and
timestamp.

For out-of-tree builds, this script invokes cpio twice to copy header
files from the srctree and subsequently from the objtree. According to a
comment in the script, there might be situations in which certain files
already exist in the destination directory when header files are copied
from the objtree:
"The second CPIO can complain if files already exist which can happen
with out of tree builds having stale headers in srctree. Just silence
CPIO for now."
GNU cpio might simply print a warning like "newer or same age version
exists", but toybox cpio exits with a non-zero exit code unless the
command line option "-u" is specified.
To improve compatibility with toybox cpio, add the command line option
"-u" to unconditionally replace existing files in the destination
directory.

In commit 43d8ce9d65 ("Provide in-kernel headers to make

>=5.2, which embeds the kernel headers in the kernel image or a module
and exposes them in procfs for use by userland tools.
The archive containing the header files has nondeterminism caused by
header files metadata. This patch normalizes the metadata and utilizes
KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP if provided and otherwise falls back to the
default behaviour.
In commit f7b101d330 ("kheaders: Move from proc to sysfs") it was
modified to use sysfs and the script for generation of the archive was
