Commit Message

Nick Desaulniers Sept. 19, 2022, 5:45 p.m. UTC
Alexey reported that the fraction of unknown filename instances in
kallsyms grew from ~0.3% to ~10% recently; Bill and Greg tracked it down
to assembler defined symbols, which regressed as a result of:

commit b8a9092330da ("Kbuild: do not emit debug info for assembly with LLVM_IAS=1")

In that commit, I allude to restoring debug info for assembler defined
symbols in a follow up patch, but it seems I forgot to do so in

commit a66049e2cf0e ("Kbuild: make DWARF version a choice")

Changes v3 -> v4:
* Break out into its own patch.
* Move addition of debug-flags-y to DEBUG_CFLAGS and KBUILD_AFLAGS up
  grouping the -gdwarf-* handling together.

This patch still misses the debug info for *.S files
for the combination of LLVM_IAS=0 and
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT=y
because, as the comment says, Clang does not pass -g down to GAS.


With "[v4] Makefile.debug: set -g unconditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT"
and this one applied,



$ grep CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF .config
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT=y
# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5 is not set
$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=0 arch/x86/kernel/irqflags.o
  SYNC    include/config/auto.conf.cmd
  SYSHDR  arch/x86/include/generated/asm/unistd_32_ia32.h
  SYSHDR  arch/x86/include/generated/asm/unistd_64_x32.h
  SYSTBL  arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_64.h
  HOSTCC  arch/x86/tools/relocs_32.o
  [snip]
  AS      arch/x86/kernel/irqflags.o
$ objdump  -h arch/x86/kernel/irqflags.o | grep debug
$








I think the following fix-up is needed on top.




diff --git a/scripts/Makefile.debug b/scripts/Makefile.debug
index d6aecd78b942..8cf1cb22dd93 100644

-DEBUG_CFLAGS   := -g
+DEBUG_CFLAGS   :=
+debug-flags-y  := -g

 ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT
 DEBUG_CFLAGS   += -gsplit-dwarf




Then, I can see the debug sections.



$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=0 arch/x86/kernel/irqflags.o
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  DESCEND objtool

If you agree, I can locally fix it up as such.

Ah, sorry I missed testing that combination. Thanks for your
thoroughness. Yes please apply that diff on top.
