While the kernel community has been good at maintaining backwards
compatibility with kernel UAPIs, it would be helpful to have a tool
to check if a patch introduces changes that break backwards
compatibility.

To that end, introduce check-uapi.sh: a simple shell script that
checks for changes to UAPI headers using libabigail.

libabigail is "a framework which aims at helping developers and
software distributors to spot some ABI-related issues like interface
incompatibility in ELF shared libraries by performing a static
analysis of the ELF binaries at hand."

The script uses one of libabigail's tools, "abidiff", to compile the
changed header before and after the patch to detect any changes.

abidiff "compares the ABI of two shared libraries in ELF format. It
emits a meaningful report describing the differences between the two
ABIs."

Ok, this is very cool, thank you so much for doing this.

I know Randy Dunlap was also looking into this previously, so I've cc:ed
him and bounced him the original.

I tried this out, and at first glance, this felt like it was just "too
fast" in that nothing actually was being tested.  So I manually added a
field to a structure I know would break the abi, and:

	$ ./scripts/check-uapi.sh
	!!! ABI differences detected in include/uapi/linux/usb/ch9.h (compared to file at HEAD^1) !!!

	    [C] 'struct usb_ctrlrequest' changed:
	      type size changed from 64 to 72 (in bits)
	      1 data member insertion:
		'__u8 abi_break', at offset 16 (in bits) at ch9.h:216:1
	      3 data member changes:
		'__le16 wValue' offset changed from 16 to 24 (in bits) (by +8 bits)
		'__le16 wIndex' offset changed from 32 to 40 (in bits) (by +8 bits)
		'__le16 wLength' offset changed from 48 to 56 (in bits) (by +8 bits)

	0/1 UAPI header file changes are backwards compatible
	UAPI header ABI check failed

So it worked!

There is a mismatch of different bash coding styles in the document, which
isn't a big deal, and one warning produced by the `shellcheck` tool, but that
can all be fixed up later.  I'll go queue this up now, as a starting point for
people to play with, thanks!

Also, it would be nice to be able to check if the current tree with changes in
it (not checked in, just modified) breaks the abi, without having to go and
check the change in.  But again, future fixups for people to do!

thanks,

Ok, I take it back, it doesn't seem to work :(

It only "catches" a change from the last commit, but if you have an
intermediate commit (i.e change something in HEAD^ but not HEAD), it
does not detect it at all.

And if you give it an old version, it doesn't check that either (hint,
try passing in a very old kernel version, that returns instantly and
doesn't actually build anything).

So it's a good first cut as an example, but as it doesn't really work
correctly yet, we can't take it.  Care to fix it up to work so that it
can be usable?

thanks,

These first patches were to introduce the tool w/ the one scenario only, 
and thanks for trying it out. We can fix it and add your suggestions.

BTW, the patch is prefixed with 'RESEND', but it contains
several diff lines against the previous submission [1].

People would submit this as v2 with changes mentioned under '---'.

This tool does not even work with changes in HEAD.

I attached two test-case patches.

This patch does not mention any requirement for
the build host, but neither of them works for me,
on Ubuntu 22.04.

I guess people will find more bad cases
if they use older distros as the build host.
(I know why it does not work, though)




For patch 0001:

$ ./scripts/check-uapi.sh

BTW, I recommend you to not pick up a patch before having
any reviewer read the code.

CROSS_COMPILE is unneeded since the toolchain prefix

I think

  if ! make -f /dev/null "${KERNEL_SRC}/scripts/unifdef"; then

... clarifies what you are doing here
because you are using make's built-in rule,
and nothing in scripts/Makefile.

I do not understand the reason for using make
if you do not use Makefile at all.

You are just compiling scripts/unifdef.c directly.

Unneeded sub-shell fork.

     git -C "$KERNEL_SRC" show "${ref}:${file}" > "${out}.in"
     scripts/headers_install.sh "${out}.in" "$out"

bikeshed:   'int main(void) { return 0; }' is enough.

You can expand ${CC} here

                   "${CC:-gcc}" -c \


I do not see anywhere else to use ${CC}.
Remove the 'compiler' argument.

"-I$inc_dir" is meaningless for most cases, unless
two UAPI headers are changed in HEAD.


In some cases, you cannot even compile the header.

Think about this case:
  include/uapi/linux/foo.h includes <linux/bar.h>

linux/bar.h does not exist in this tmp directory.

You assume <linux/bar.h> comes from the user's build environment,
presumably located under /usr/include/.

It does not necessarily new enough to compile
include/uapi/linux/foo.h

So, this does not work.
I believe you need to re-consider the approach.

Redundant.



get_no_header_list() {
        {
             echo 'all: ; @echo $(no-header-test)'
             cat "${KERNEL_SRC}/usr/include/Makefile"
        } | make -f -
}


should be equivalent, but you still cannot exclude
include/uapi/asm-generic/*.h, though.

The -r option is wrong since 'base' is updated
in the second iteration.


If this while loop gets two or more input lines,
I see the following in the second iteration.


./scripts/check-uapi.sh: line 94: local: base: readonly variable

Redundant.

done < <(git -C "$KERNEL_SRC" show HEAD --name-status --format=""
--diff-filter=a -- include/uapi/)




Why are you checking only include/uapi/ ?
UAPI headers exist in arch/*/include/uapi/

If you look at git history, we sometimes do this.

e.g.

1e6b57d6421f0343dd11619612e5ff8930cddf38

I think this is unneeded if you add --no-renames to 'git show'.

I do not see any sense to distinguish removal and rename
since it is what git detects from the similarity.

CROSS_COMPILE is unneeded since it is included in ${CC}.

print_usage() says these three are taken from
environment variables.

So, they are already exported, aren't they?

Will resolve all shellcheck warnings in next rev. Not sure about the 
coding style differences you're referring to - is there a shell script 
coding style document?

Should be straightforward to add. Since I'm making another rev, I'll

I'll make an update to improve this behavior. Should be able to specify

Thanks for the example patches! We understand the issue and I think 
there's a simple solution. We can install all of the current UAPI 
headers into the tmp directory and include those. That way, the user's 
system headers shouldn't enter into the equation.

Sorry about that, I'm still learning the etiquette. :)

I will mark the patch rev as v2 after addressing your comments.

Right, yes. We'll end up using it in the next rev for installing

This is a great point. I think a good approach here would be to install 
all the headers into $inc_dir so that cross-header dependencies like 
this use the correct versions from the current kernel.

I'll try this approach in the next rev.

Yes, that's a better implementation. I'll also make sure that the

Not strictly. Was just using it for "sanitization" in the temp dir. Will

I think the script should still fail in this case. If someone decides to 
ignore it and still remove the header file, that's fine. In general 
though, I'd expect a flag on my CI build if a supported UAPI header file 
was removed.

Agreed, there's not really a distinction here. I'll add --no-renames and 
only check for removals.
