CONFIG_KASAN_STACK and CONFIG_KASAN_STACK_ENABLE both enable KASAN stack
instrumentation, but we should only need one config, so that we remove
CONFIG_KASAN_STACK_ENABLE and make CONFIG_KASAN_STACK workable.  see [1].

When enable KASAN stack instrumentation, then for gcc we could do no
prompt and default value y, and for clang prompt and default value n.

This patch fixes the following compilation warning:

  include/linux/kasan.h:333:30: warning: 'CONFIG_KASAN_STACK' is not defined, evaluates to 0 [-Wundef]

gcc-11 adds support for -fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress, so it becomes
possible to enable CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS.

Unfortunately this fails to build at the moment, because the
corresponding command line arguments use llvm specific syntax.

Change it to use the cc-param macro instead, which works on both clang
and gcc.

<title>kbuild: lto: Merge module sections if and only if CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled</title>

Merge module sections only when using Clang LTO. With ld.bfd, merging
sections does not appear to update the symbol tables for the module,
e.g. 'readelf -s' shows the value that a symbol would have had, if
sections were not merged. ld.lld does not show this problem.

The stale symbol table breaks gdb's function disassembler, and presumably
other things, e.g.

  gdb -batch -ex "file arch/x86/kvm/kvm.ko" -ex "disassemble kvm_init"

reads the wrong bytes and dumps garbage.

<title>kbuild: fix ld-version.sh to not be affected by locale</title>

ld-version.sh checks the output from $(LD) --version, but it has a
problem on some locales.

For example, in Italian:

  $ LC_MESSAGES=it_IT.UTF-8 ld --version | head -n 1
  ld di GNU (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2

This makes ld-version.sh fail because it expects "GNU ld" for the
BFD linker case.

Add LC_ALL=C to override the user's locale.

BTW, setting LC_MESSAGES=C (or LANG=C) is not enough because it is
ineffective if LC_ALL is set on the user's environment.

<title>kbuild: remove unneeded -O option to dtc</title>

<id>64bfc99429a5c9613fffb0e54f2f8c2ddc8c1d04</id>
<content type='text'>
This piece of code converts the target suffix to the dtc -O option:

    *.dtb      -&gt;  -O dtb
    *.dt.yaml  -&gt;  -O yaml

Commit ce88c9c79455 ("kbuild: Add support to build overlays (%.dtbo)")
added the third case:

    *.dtbo     -&gt;  -O dtbo

This works thanks to commit 163f0469bf2e ("dtc: Allow overlays to have
.dtbo extension") in the upstream DTC, which has already been pulled in
the kernel.

However, I think it is a bit odd because "dtbo" is not a format name.
At least, it does not show up in the help message of dtc.

$ scripts/dtc/dtc --help
  [ snip ]
  -O, --out-format &lt;arg&gt;
        Output formats are:
                dts - device tree source text
                dtb - device tree blob
                yaml - device tree encoded as YAML
                asm - assembler source

So, I am not a big fan of the second hunk of that change:

        } else if (streq(outform, "dtbo")) {
                dt_to_blob(outf, dti, outversion);

Anyway, we did not need to do this in Makefile in the first place.

guess_type_by_name() had already understood ".yaml" before commit
4f0e3a57d6eb ("kbuild: Add support for DT binding schema checks"),
and now does ".dtbo" as well.

Makefile does not need to duplicate the same logic. Let's leave it
to dtc.

ppc64le checks for -mprofile-kernel to define MPROFILE_KERNEL Kconfig.
Kconfig calls arch/powerpc/tools/gcc-check-mprofile-kernel.sh for that
purpose. This script performs two checks:
1) build with -mprofile-kernel should contain "_mcount"
2) build with -mprofile-kernel with a function marked as "notrace"
   should not produce "_mcount"

So support this in dummy-tools' gcc, so that we have MPROFILE_KERNEL
always true.

Linus reported a build error due to the GCC plugin incompatibility
when the compiler is upgraded. [1]

GCC plugins are tied to a particular GCC version. So, they must be
rebuilt when the compiler is upgraded.

This seems to be a long-standing flaw since the initial support of
GCC plugins.

Extend commit 8b59cd81dc5e ("kbuild: ensure full rebuild when the
compiler is updated"), so that GCC plugins are covered by the
compiler upgrade detection.

If LLD was built with -DLLD_VENDOR="xyz", ld.lld --version output
will prefix LLD_VENDOR. Since LLD_VENDOR can contain spaces, the
LLD identifier isn't guaranteed to be $2 either.

Adjust the version checker to handle such versions of lld.
