SubjectProblems with arm64 compat vdso
Hi Vincenzo,

I've been running into a few issues with the COMPAT vDSO. Please could
you have a look?

If I do the following:

$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- defconfig
[...]
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- menuconfig
[set CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO="arm-linux-gnueabihf-"]
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-

Then I see the following warning:

arch/arm64/Makefile:62: CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT not defined or empty, the compat vDSO will not be built

even though the compat vDSO *has* been built:

$ file arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so
arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so: ELF 32-bit LSB pie executable, ARM, EABI5 version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, BuildID[sha1]=c67f6c786f2d2d6f86c71f708595594aa25247f6, stripped

However, I also get some warnings because arm64 headers are being included
in the compat vDSO build:

In file included from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/thread_info.h:17:0,

Worse, if your compat binutils isn't up-to-date, you'll actually run into
a build failure:

/tmp/ccFCrjUg.s:80: Error: invalid barrier type -- `dmb ishld'
/tmp/ccFCrjUg.s:124: Error: invalid barrier type -- `dmb ishld'

There also appears to be a problem getting the toolchain prefix from Kconfig.
If, for example, I do:

$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- defconfig
[...]
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- menuconfig
[set CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO="vincenzo"]
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
arch/arm64/Makefile:64: *** vincenzogcc not found, check CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT. Stop.
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- menuconfig
[set CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO="arm-linux-gnueabihf-"]
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
arch/arm64/Makefile:64: *** vincenzogcc not found, check CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT. Stop.
$ grep CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO .config
CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO="arm-linux-gnueabihf-"

which is irritating, because it seems to force a 'mrproper' if you don't
get the prefix right first time.

Cheers,

Will
