[PATCH] kbuild/x86: Use $(KBUILD_AFLAGS) in Kbuild's version of $(as-instr)

[Dmitry Safonov via B4 Relay]

From: Dmitry Safonov <0x7f454c46@xxxxxxxxx>

At Arista some products use compatible 32-bit userspace running on x86.
As a part of disto build for ia32 it also compiles the 64-bit kernel.
While the toolchain for the kernel build is yet the same, with 64-bit gcc:
> / @Bru-na-Boinne% file /usr/bin/gcc-11
> /usr/bin/gcc-11: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, BuildID[sha1]=6571ad50d8f12eece053f1bac7a95a2c767f32c9, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped

It seems that gcc is being smart and detects that it's running in
a 32-bit container (personality flag? 32-bit mmap base? something else
inherited post-exec?  haven't yet figured it out) and by default tries
to build 32-bit binaries.

That results in a failing toolchain check:
> / @Bru-na-Boinne% printf "%b\n" "wrussq %rax, (%rbx)" | /usr/bin/gcc-11 -Wa,--fatal-warnings -c -x assembler-with-cpp -o /dev/null -
> <stdin>: Assembler messages:
> <stdin>:1: Error: `wrussq' is only supported in 64-bit mode

Which passes when -m64 is directly specify for the build check:
> / @Bru-na-Boinne% printf "%b\n" "wrussq %rax, (%rbx)" | /usr/bin/gcc-11 -m64 -Wa,--fatal-warnings -c -x assembler-with-cpp -o /dev/null -
> / @Bru-na-Boinne% echo $?
> 0

As a result, kbuild produces different value for CONFIG_AS_WRUSS
for native 64-bit containers and ia32 containers with 64-bit gcc,
which produces different kernels with enabled/disabled
CONFIG_X86_USER_SHADOW_STACK.

arch/x86/Makefile already properly defines KBUILD_AFLAGS += -m64,
which is luckly already available at the point of toolchain check
in arch/x86/Kconfig.assembler

By hacking around Kbuild variable the following way:
> --- a/scripts/Kconfig.include
> +++ b/scripts/Kconfig.include
> @@ -13,7 +13,8 @@ left_paren  := (
>
>  # $(if-success,<command>,<then>,<else>)
>  # Return <then> if <command> exits with 0, <else> otherwise.
> -if-success = $(shell,{ $(1); } >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "$(2)" || echo "$(3)")
> +if-success = $(shell,echo '$(1)' 1>&2;{ $(1); } >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "$(2)" || echo "$(3)")

I got the following output for the toolchain check, before:
> linux @Bru-na-Boinne% make ARCH=x86_64 oldconfig V=1 2>&1 | grep wrus
> printf "%b\n" "wrussq %rax,(%rbx)" | gcc  -c -x assembler-with-cpp -o /dev/null -

and after:
> linux @Bru-na-Boinne% make ARCH=x86_64 oldconfig V=1 2>&1 | grep wrus
> printf "%b\n" "wrussq %rax,(%rbx)" | gcc -D__ASSEMBLY__ -fno-PIE -m64 -c -x assembler-with-cpp -o /dev/null -

Which seems appropriate to me.
This also reflects the existing definition in scripts/Makefile.compiler
for $(as-instr) that already has $(KBUILD_AFLAGS).
